  1. Mistermack, you are dragging this way off topic.
  2. In your link, it was Uragan missiles the Ukrainians took. Tochka missiles are part of their amoury, which were supplied to them by the Russians in more peaceful times.
  3. Just noticed Russian Tochka missiles used in the railway massacre are green and the Ukrainian version is grey.
  4. A new song by Pink Floyd
  5. A new song by Pink Floyd
  6. @SergUpstart Have you omitted to mention that this missile has "For the children" painted in Russian on the side? I'm sure the Ukrainians put that on.
  7. Hitler. Apparently, it's from the official Ukrainian Twitter account.
  8. You need to diversify your reading sources, as that's straight out of the Kremlin songbook.
  9. It's a process handled by many components, not a physical thing, like Peterkin says.
  10. The mind's eye only exists in the subjective sense, since it seems to be a composite phenomenon, emerging from data transmitted by several/many areas of the central nervous system.
  11. China prefers to just sneak up on borders and pinch little bits of land at a time rather than all out conflict.
  12. @Sensei Carry putting up videos then that you know hardly anyone will look at.
  13. You are not understanding me, a lot of people don't have the time to devote to a video as a means of assessing evidence. A transcript of a video may well get takers.
  14. If you want people to see your support for what you are saying, don't post videos, use readable sources, it can be browsed and read many times quicker. How many people have got nearly two hours free to watch a video that might be a waste of time. This is not to say yours is. Text wins everytime. I might watch it later though, as the subject interests me. Phi put this up on the same subject earlier: https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/understanding-russian-oligarchs
  15. I looked to see if NATO membership predated Orban, but he was PM then. Je ne sais pas.
  16. Sewer workers have been known to eat their meals where they are working. They might wear wellies and rubber gloves and helmet, but that's about it for safety gear. I get the impression you think they work in a biohazard suit... no. They do have vaccinations for diseases they may be exposed to.
  17. That's what Galton was alluding to in my quote, although in the understanding of his time.
  18. If it's spin, it's my spin. The ensuing military catastrophe that is the Russian Plan appears to bear me out. The last 4 days of troop movements:
  19. The author was a Cambridge mathematician. I think memory plays a strong part in supplying mind's eye data for visual construction.
  20. Apparently, weapons are in such short supply in Chechnya they have been handing out 1930's Mosin-Nagant rifles, used in WW2, to its conscripts. This seems to indicate that its ally has a dire shortage of available modern arms, as I'm sure they would supply the Chechens if they were available. I think it's possible Russia may grind to a halt purely through lack of adequate logistical pre-planning, supplies and poor morale amongst its ranks.
  21. Would Alexender Fleming's accidental discovery of the antibiotic action of Penicillium notatum qualify?
  22. Why don't you fuck off to Russia and enjoy the delights of their state media. Stop dragging this topic into irrelevance. If you've got an axe to grind, make your own thread. We don't need your bile making a difficult subject more difficult to navigate. You are making this thread stink of red herrings.
