I tried Ubuntu again recently for the first time in years.

Between Snaps and having to create an account to get security updates, I quickly gave up on it.

iPhone has enormous market dominance in the US and no sideloading.

Russia had the equipment (and a lot more) to lose. It’s quite realistic.

How you can consider a two year war where none of the original goals have been met a success is beyond me.

Russia has paid an enormous cost for very little in the way of gains. They haven’t even regained the land they retreated from in 2022.

But by all means. Keep cheering on Putin sending his people into a meat grinder in his pathetic 20th century war of conquest.

Visually confirming thousands of destroyed pieces of equipment while avoiding duplicates is hard and mistakes will be made. They’re corrected as they’re found.

You’re happily felching Kremlin propaganda.

Visually confirmed losses.

Two years, hundreds of thousands of casualties, tens of thousands of equipment losses and burning through Russia’s future generation and financial reserve

‘Winning’.

And helpfully, the social fabric is so strained at the moment with anti-vax nonsense that even the most basic advice like “stay home if you’re sick” or “try not to cough directly onto the face of anyone” would be meet with insane opposition.

Like Russia are actively doing right now?

How were those free and fair elections in the USSR?

Russia is so powerless it has no agency and invaded its neighbours because the devious Americans tricked them into it?

What absolute nonsense. This is a war caused by a pathetic man grasping at delusions of empire.
