“Europe surpasses US in total military support” is a bit less biased.
But it’s not like OP reads the articles he’s spamming, he just spams enough decent articles to hide shit in them. Such sophistication in technique from DAVriELlouna

Ai is reading the Gaelic poorly and misinterpreting it? Makes sense. But it supposedly translated words into English for me, not Irish.
So I started imagining that “teaspag” is is like a certain type of spag bol the Scots have with their tea.
Using my phones translator function on this image, this is what comes up.
What on Earth is a “teaspag” that it put as the Scottish one?
(Although I zoomed at a different rate and tried again and then it read “bishops”)

Nintendo is just flexing now how “Mario Mario” who constantly yells “mamma-mia” wasn’t their most over-the-top Italian caricature.
Yea.
Tbh I think all countries could use agencies like this, and not just to protect from foreign influence but all kinds of corruption and bullshit.
Belarus is the only European country still employing the death penalty.
And yes, that supposedly includes Russia. Albeit it’s not illegal per se, there’s just a moratorium on it — while we know that unofficially when “falls out a window”, what has actually happened.
Oh I was not aware Ukraine was getting PASIs.
Patria is a Finnish company, although these ones come from Latvia.
Idk where the name comes from but “Pasi” is like a very basic, although not the most common Finnish name. It’d be like having your tank named “Simon” or something.
But yeah I second everything you said, and I don’t think just writing those stats really gives people the idea on what these things can do. They’re not like anything an American would call “a truck”.

I think there may have been like a pre-loaded 5-8 shot or something mag in those, but since they didn’t expect the person to last until reload, they gave every second person a rifle so like “wait until he cops it/runs out of ammo and cops it” and then takeover and reload.
I think there’s like at least a bit of this in some 90’s early 00’'s war movies when we weren’t as mad at Russia. Maybe like… “Enemy at the gates”…?
I can’t recall. I checkers yeah it’s in that movie. Also Jude Law, so, despite current political atmosphere, it’s a good watch.
It’s the Russians.
In WWII they were handing out rifles to every second guy and ammo to every second.
Dude with the machine gun has a bipod support on it, there’s a very nice mound just where the filming person is standing, yet he’s shooting free-hand.
I’m generally against violent content, but definitely make an exception here (and in all other posts like it). This should be posted everywhere on Lemmy for Russians to see.
They do have a choice.
If they don’t want to get blown up, then they should protest the war.
Any and all Russians on Lemmy should listen to this guy here.
NSFW being for anyone who might randomly gaze at your phone and NSFL being for the user themselves.
I’d love to sign that statement, but I can only go so far as saying I don’t mind watching Russian soldiers and pro-Putlerites die.
Got to leave some leeway for the sane individuals who’re just smart enough to know not to fall for any of the bullshit and keep their head down — or better yet, protest. Yes, protesting is more dangerous, but it’s also more moral.
Sting even had a song kinda related to this. Ages ago.
That being said, I have been looking up what those drone controllers cost, I want to practice on a sim as I’m already an NCO and with a little extra training could easily be a drone operator. That Sting song wouldn’t be my soundtrack of choice, though.
It’d be something more like this:
Between the Eyes- Бойова пісня для України - Battle song for Ukraine - Silmien välliin
Ukraine, it is why did nobody in the west supply the Ukranian military with modern artillery and artillery stocks before?
Probably because EU trusted us Finns to keep the eastern border with our artillery, and we couldn’t give it to Ukraine because we need it to keep Russia away.
Very different landscapes though, 75% of Finland is covered by forests, whereas I think it’s less so for Ukraine. Ya, 16.7%. There’s pros and cons to the differences.
Except I know exactly what we trained with, and I know we didn’t…?
We only trained and got trained to train in the use of AA mines. (10 kilos each, btw, and a fighter carries two.)
Edit thanks for the added info to the thread tho
