The artillery destruction is a major factual in winning this war.

I'm always pretty happy if I have a bug last thing on a Friday. Gets me right back into it first thing on Monday. It's kinda weird, but works for me.

In true British style, trying not to be outdone by the French, we built our own on the other side of the English Channel, and no one got a hole burnt in their heads nor nuffin else like that. I give you, Staint Michael's Mount. https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=27PJUnX7&id=19739A38393B041DE09F4652C204F62A51AA4BD8&thid=OIP.27PJUnX7HqRmPffE2DCw_QHaE6&mediaurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.roger-pearse.com%2Fweblog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2021%2F05%2FSt-Michaels-Mount-Cornwall-1-scaled.jpg&cdnurl=https%3A%2F%2Fth.bing.com%2Fth%2Fid%2FR.dbb3c95275fb1ea4663df7c4d830b0fd%3Frik%3D2EuqUSr2BMJSRg%26pid%3DImgRaw%26r%3D0&exph=1700&expw=2560&q=st+Michael%27s+mount&simid=608000269688006678&form=IRPRST&ck=62D0BC485FEFACCD45AC51C97E4B2765&selectedindex=1&pc=EMMX01&ajaxhist=0&ajaxserp=0&vt=4&sim=11

I stated programming games on a school computer in the early to mid 80's. When the tape drive broke, I still used to have the code in my head, just type it all in for others to play. Now I find code I wrote last month and can't remember doing it. At least it tends to be, "which genius wrote this" these day. Tend to leave comments everywhere for myself now, including my own name and other messages to myself like,"don't touch this it works, your bug will be in..."

Look for those artillery numbers every day. Great to see.

That's very disappointing. So at least 90% of people are still on there, if not 95% or even 98% still there. That's barely more than a rounding error. Fuck, that is disappointing.

He was, but once he'd finished getting sued for sacking contractors, randomly turning off critical servers and reopening the accounts of some of the world most despicable people, he hand over yo Linda, who he had personally selected.

All perfectly correct. However, it is a war that Russia will never win, like Afghanistan.

This is an incredibly long article, mostly rehashing old information. Tl:dr is this. The war will take 4 to 6 years. It is irrelevant that Russia has more people as they don't have the kit or tatics. The battle has become one of artillery attrition. Ukraine is getting stronger and Russia weaker. There will be a sudden breakthrough when the Russian army is exhausted, but don't know when.

The last 4 or 5 paragraphs are worth a read from, "UKRAINE IS GROWING STRONGER, AND RUSSIA WEAKER" onwards.

I think that MTG, and a lot of commenters on here, need to realise that Ukraine will not stop this war until Russia are out, regardless of the international support or otherwise. Even if Ukraine is overrun completely the war would not stop, but would go on until Russia leave.

Copyright is fucking wierd and an anomaly. It has only existed very recently in all history. Part of the reason we have the works of Shakespeare is due to the fact that there was no copyright then, so taking a part of someone else's work and rehashing into something new was common and innovative. Disney do this with old folk stories, but then they get to "copyright" it? It's abhorrent. It stifles further creativity. Take that horrible weirdo TERF who wrote some wizarding shit. She would have done very nicely without copyright protection. It's not needed. So-called "piracy" is just normal behaviour. Nothing wrong with it.

Whatever you do, don't go back, as it's only the dregs of society left there. Honestly, it's horrible on there now. I permanently left it yesterday.
