I don't think you appreciate how big a container ship like that is. It is a lot of mass.

A story from a few years ago on the arrest of a senior isis guy in ukraine and the general path of isis guys into ukraine from the mid east

How Ukraine became the unlikely home for Isis leaders escaping the caliphate

Ukrainian authorities announced last week they had arrested a top Isis commander in Kiev in a joint operation with the CIA. He appears to be one of many to have made Ukraine their home

(as a destination for isis fighters leaving Syria) Ukraine offers several advantages over the competition too: the common Russian language, chaos of war, unprofessionalism of local security services, and the low risk of extradition to countries such as Russia.

Mironova estimates “hundreds” of former Isis fighters have decamped to Ukraine. But it is not the numbers that should be of primary concern, she said. The cluster of terrorists in Ukraine were by their nature a “self-selecting” elite: “This isn’t a random selection. The slower guys stop as soon as they get to Turkey. After all, it is a multiple-step operation to get to Ukraine. The ones who get there are the dangerous ones.”

I just watched this last night with my partner and wildly uncomfortable is the word for it. It is truly a movie made by Hollywood sickos. I really don't like the sexualization of children or Lolita themes.

He's doing open BEARders, folks

Huawei employs silicon wave attacks to make chips, but at what cost?

I was surprised they export this much corn

Yes that was a good article.

I really hope that over the years China-Russia partnership gets stronger and that Chinese acceptance of LGBT equality grows, such that one day Russian chud attitudes towards LGBT issues are squashed out of the state.

bingo, then bake them for 15-20 min. the oil mostly evaporates and the seasoning sticks

This was in the Mar 2022 potential deal as well - ukraine was to be militarily neutral but was welcome to pursue EU membership

this is definitely not something supported by the pro-Russian side

Do you mean not supported by Russia or not supported by Z posters? The terms related to ukraine here are basically the same as what was floating around in March 2022, except for Russia keeping way more territory. Demilitarization, neutrality, ukraine into EU, security guarantees for ukraine from us and Russia all comprise the major points from the purported 2022 peace deal. This seems like Russia as in the Russian state getting what it wants. I can see how pro Russia posters want ukraine to get entirely leveled, but I doubt that is in the cards.
