OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[84 Baby]

China will be watching closely and how others react.
I predict others will throw a few sanctions on them but in the end Russie will take over the Ukraine. To be fair its not like they where going much good on their own.

NATO assisting Ukraine is a very different situation to western countries reacting to an action in Taiwan.
It’s not a good spot where defensive assistance could catalyse world war

 

[strider]

Should I invest in a unit somewhere ?

They will probably be content with a bit of shed space

 

[Gronk]

Ok I have more questions. Why are the US far right defending Putin ?

 

[Avenger]

Isn’t life complicated. Kosovo was superficially about the same thing with Albanians living in the Yugo region, and in name of peace, the world called it a humanitarian disaster and awarded the land to the separatists and branded the Serbs merkins.

And there was an oversupply of depleted uranium and NATO had to dump somewhere.

 

[Avenger]

Ok I have more questions. Why are the US far right defending Putin ?

Because Biden received money from the Ukrainian government for his presidential bid and because that stupid Vice President in a recent statement to the superpower leaders said ‘Listen Guys.’


She’s a f**king idiot.

So Republican supporters are pro Russia (USA's main antagonists this century) because they want to get political purchase from it ? Even our disfunctional pollies would form a bipartisan position on serious breaches of sovereignty.

Basically yes. You see Americans always think that issues are black and white when the truth and reasoning for supporting/condemning a particular country is somewhere in between.

[Joshuatheeel]

The Germans tried to invade Malta in ww2 with the Itlaians and failed miserably. A small island with 400,000 defended itself.

And that shows why China won’t ever be able to take Taiwan…..

 

[Avenger]

We need to send in this idiot

I'm a jack of all trades and a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.

Hydrogen-powered V8 engine here to “keep internal combustion alive”​

Designed by Toyota engineering partner Yamaha, the new engine is said to carve out its own niche in the electric era – however its environmental credentials are yet to be proven.

Toyota and long-time Japanese engineering partner Yamaha are working to develop hydrogen-powered 5.0-litre V8 engines, in an effort to keep internal combustion technology alive as electric vehicles grow in popularity.
Unlike a hydrogen fuel-cell power unit – which combines hydrogen and oxygen atoms to create electricity and drive a motor – the new powertrain is a conventional piston-driven engine, tuned to burn hydrogen instead of petrol.
Based on the block from a Lexus RC F coupe (shown below), the 5.0-litre naturally-aspirated engine underwent modifications to its injectors, cylinder heads, and intake manifold.

It's designers believe the new engine could carve out a own niche in the electric era, however its environmental credentials are yet to be proven.

It sort of helped having a English navy submarine base and all their defensive weapons there

 

[Eelogical]

because Trump

A mate told me he's also the reason why we haven't won a premiership since '86.

I find it funny how all the news reports state "Biden said ..." .... i genuinely dont think Biden would know if his pants are on fire ...... I know presidents dont pull the strings, but it seems odd they are going to great lengths to make it seem he is, seems more than usual.

Putin never agreed on the USSR desolving. He may want to take the lot back one by one. This could get very ugly. Worse is many civilians will die.

But imagine that. His pants acutlay on fire and he is just continuing his speech.

Putin was a junior burger in 1991 working as a shit kicker in St Petersburg.
