Yeah, except that per the Montreux Convention, because Turkey has recognized that Russia is “at war”, Russia is not allowed to transit any warships through the Bosporus Strait, so any new combat ship they make has to be made in the Black Sea.

I think a big part of the issue is that the Chinese market is fucking huge, and the Chinese market also seems to love gimmicky software crap in their cars, and often emphasizes that over hardware features and other general aspects of, you know, being a car. It’s an unfortunate and obnoxious case of carmakers following the money.
Too bad SCOTUS just ruled that US government regulatory agencies are essentially meaningless a day or two ago
Well, yes and no. Fleet size matters.
UK MoD estimated earlier this year that Russia had about 6 serviceable A-50 airframes; the US alone has 21 E-3s, while France operates 4, and NATO collectively operates another 18 - and that doesn’t factor in other newer and more advanced AWACS platforms.
Russia lost over 10% of their operable AWACS fleet by losing one plane. Russia is HUGE. Their AEW assets were absurdly stretched before, and now they will be even moreso. Any losses they incur will degrade their overall strategic AEW capacity in a very real fashion.
It’s code for “Muslims and brown people in general”. It’s just a fig leaf to cover the prejudice up.
I mean it’s yahoo; they’ve been getting bots of one form or another to write their shit for a while now, haven’t they?
Tech bros also just reinvented trains recently, so this is pretty appropriate
Tbh it actually sounds a lot more like Boeing these days. F9/F9H is bulletproof reliable these days, and starship is making HUGE developmental strides, while Boeing is still failing to discover and iron out system integration bugs and hardware faults years after they had “completed the project”.
Hey man, I once had an engineering exec (who didn’t last very long) who decided engineers would be stack ranked by SLOC. You can imagine how easy that metric was to cheese, and you can also imagine exactly how that policy turned out.
Give an engineer a stupid metric to meet, and they’ll find a stupid way to meet it for you, if only out of malicious compliance.
Yeah what the fuck is happening here? Anyone have any more context, whether or not you’re from the region?

Reading between the lines, sounds like he’s pissed about being called out for being a Putin apologist and following Russia’s party line on Ukraine.
You’re not going to shame people into disowning their morality. This isn’t a fight you’re going to win.
You’ve gotta stop calling them Shirley, though.
I am suspicious they realized that they weren’t going to be able to make a loophole for themselves - I’ve seen several articles in the last week on how they were trying to do that.
Why not though? It’s just stock market with less rules.
Wcgw? The UK tried it and now… oh wait. Yeah, this could backfire.
Bro, just put 10k into BTC in 2014 and you’re gonna do well.
Unfortunately some people don’t experience time as a near concept
