One thing that stands out to me is that in all the videos I’ve seen, there was only one that didn’t target the bridge. I haven’t seen a single video of a ship sinking. I guess they’re just trying to immobilize them to avoid environmental disasters? But where are all those hit ships now? Floating around aimlessly?
I’m glad they’re taking their time and doing things thoroughly, as an end user I don’t want to run into some opaque issues related to window managers, shit should just work.
I think it will depend on how they would disable the satellites. There’s a lot of Starlink satellites, it’s a lot of particles if they use explosives…
Blowing up a low orbit satellites can lead to many particles reaching high altitudes, if only temporary as you say, where they can cause cascades. Unstable orbits make the probability of collisions smaller, but they need to shatter only one satellite to end up with a mess in stable orbits.
Fair enough, perhaps I was wrong about thinking no collapse will happen soon. Time will tell. I suppose it could happen if the energy sector collapses, it will drag everything along with it, no help from China can stop that I think.
I’m not sure if we have the same idea when it comes to collapsing. In my mind it’s a bit more than a shrinking economy and inconveniences for some things in daily life. I would say that a collapsing economy results in instability on many levels, high rates of joblessness, countless companies going bankrupt, societal unrest, rapid price fluctuations of practically everything, etc. Some of those things are happening in Russia, but not nearly enough to call it a collapse imo.
Eh, I would argue that trade agreements and active orientation to Russia of certain business sectors counts as supporting, but I’m no economist, perhaps you’re right.
I doubt the Russian economy will collapse as long as China supports it. And China will keep supporting it, because there is much to gain for them.
The number of missiles and drones launched by Russia has been fairly steady since last year, sure there are some peaks here and there, but on average the numbers don’t go up, rather they’ve been going down slightly for the past few months. Ukraine’s countermeasures have become much more effective though with less than 10% of drones making it through.
The media tend to oversensationalize things, the Russian oil industry imploding isn’t happening yet, but it has gone down to the point that nearly all of Russia is struggling to find enough fuel.
Killing off an economy takes forever, the effects of sanctions are slow, especially if an economy propped up by war time spending. But no amount of financial propping up can save an economy if its energy demands can’t be met. To be fair, Ukraine isn’t even close to disabling Russia’s energy infrastructure, they’re only seriously hitting one aspect of it.
Be the change you wanna see and organize something? The communities are small though, and the fraction of interested people even smaller, probably good to take into account for the choice of what you want to organize.

It was outside of territorial waters but probably inside the economic zone
The €70 billion title is misleading. NATO proposes an additional €40 billion, which is still substantial, but not as mucb as the title implies.
And still denying ethnic cleansing
Another small step, meaningless by itself, that adds to the heap of consequences I believe the Zionist will eventually face
That’s basically what the article states. Most users have fast enough systems to not bother with this tool, but embedded systems and other slow hardware could benefit from this. I imagine it’s mostly useful for engineers (and smart home hobbyists) to optimize processes or product lines.
First one that came to mind is Grave of the Fireflies, a Studio Ghibli movie unlike any of the other movies they ever made.
I’m using Thunder on Android for both Lemmy and PieFed. It’s working decently well, but doesn’t support all features. The main missing one for me is PieFed’s crosspost viewing. I hearing a lot of good things about Voyager lately, maybe I’ll give it a shot soon.
Don’t ships have everything compartmentalized? If the bridge burns down, that fire shouldn’t spread to the rest of the ship, right?
