It’s delightful how the Ukraine-theLatest spares no effort in delivering the purest form of enlightenment; I dare say, I’ve abandoned all doubt in favour of unwavering faith.

[@shyamdevadas6099]

I read about preparations for this a few weeks ago. It sounded a bit incredulous. I'm sure it still have a lot of challenges, but I'm really encouraged about this. Anything that can put a layer of protection between Ukrainian forces and the Russian invaders is good. During this war, I had begun to think of the Ukrainians as the Israelis of Eastern Europe, in terms of the innovation they have brought to bear out of necessity. But, events are now showing that the Ukrainians are actually surpassing the Israelis in the way that they are innovating the ways wars are fought. I disagree with those who say that drone warfare with rise and decline with this war. While it is likely that each side will develop countermeasures to the other's drones, the larger significance is the adoption of the technology by smaller players in other parts of the world. Drones are going to appear on every battlefield out there.

After listening to that poor woman's story - the russians bring horror to the world. There can never truly be justice for the terrors they have done in this war. Nothing we can do can bring these people back, whom they have killed for no reason except hubris. All russians are responsible for letting this happen, and all will pay a terrible price for what they have done for the next 100 years.

I am fed up with the commentary that Russia has lost a staggering amount of troops. Don’t these people ever think to see how many casualties they had in WW 2 . What they’ve lost in Ukraine isn’t even close. A million casualties isn’t going to stop Russia if they are determined and nobody inside Russia is willing to revolt.

[@andyrobinson2653]

They only started with 190k with manybe 1100 added to it. The true figure is not known but the idea that they lost a million is just mathematically impossible.

[@kostiantyn8724]

I hate bringing it but, but the quality of the interview's translation is rather on the middling side: from the conversation fragments that I was able to hear despite the English voiceover, I have an impression that about half of the phrases (or pehaps, often, a half of each phrase..?) were not translated at all, and some were mistranslated - even simple stuff like the old lady saying that she went back once - and it having been translated as "a couple of times". I do apologize if I'm wrong about something, as it was quite hard to hear the original Ukrainian speech due to the voiceover. Also, the general gist of the conversation was still correct, it's all of the details that predominantly suffered, I think.

Like most people, I have sleep walked into all of this, and it must be fairly obvious to all by now that Europe is in a very precarious position without the US.

Question: Why not invest in modern windmills and solar panels to generate electricity? There are miles of both along US Interstate Highway in Illinois and Indiana. The crops in those fields are doing just fine, too.

[@gadgetgus]

⚠️ And compromise your position...

[@makinghistory7663]

I think part of is it that theyre kind of expensive in initial investment and require a lot of imported parts and Ukraine is already financially in a difficult situation, along with the new infrastructure they would need it would be an economic drain. The other part is how fragile they can be, its a lot easier to knock down a windmill and ruin it forever than to hit a specific generator in a power substation. And Solar panels literally use glass and could be hit with frag munitions really easily. They'd be hard to fortify without hurting their performance and so are impractical for a wartime state.
