If by “milking” you mean “releasing major content additions semi regularly”, then yes.

einkorn, to world in In Need of Munitions, Putin to Visit North Korea
@einkorn@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

There has never been a shortage of quality equipment for elite units but in the early stages of the conscription people where issued everything stored in bunkers and depots at hand including personal weapons from late WWII/early Cold War.

And if you look at confirmed vehicle losses there is a clear trend towards older and older albeit to various degrees modernized platforms. So yeah, Russia IS running out of modern weapons for the average unit in the field.

The issue at hand though is the longer the conflict draggs on the more Russia is able to adapt. Evading sanctions by laundering oil in India. Importing vital electronic components through China. And now securing more ammo in North Korea. Which btw the west is doing in South Korea and other places around the world as well.

The amount of artillery shells being used is astronomical. Paired with a low production capacity in the west as a baseline, it is not unimaginable that the ongoing demand outweighs production.

Could as well be Orban trying to look cool to younger folks.

Who was the US Republican die-hard neo-lib Senator again, who claimed to love Rage Against The Machine?

Isn’t it a long-standing theory that at some point the whole magnetic field of earth might flip polarity, just like the sun’s does?

In a voting system such as the US its the natural outcome that you vote against the guy you don’t want but not for the person you want.

CGP Grey did a fantastic video series on YouTube about different systems for voting.

@einkorn@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Untergang? Yes, they have dropped in percentage points in for now. But they are far from faltering. The EU election is relatively unimportant compared to what’s coming: Keep a close eye on the three state elections in Germany later this year.

einkorn, to world in Name and shame: Pro-Israel website ramps up attacks on pro-Palestinian student protesters
@einkorn@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Let’s remember that the purpose of this protest was to stop Israel from defending themselves against their explicitly genocidal attackers via political pressure.

Israel is well past the stage where it defends itself against the attack. They could very well stop their operations right this moment and no further harm would come to them for the foreseeable future. What they are doing now is a deliberate attack to cleanse Gaza of everything and everyone they consider anti-Israeli.

Stopping Israel before they depose Hamas keeps Hamas in power.

How long ago has the West pulled out of Afghanistan? Apparently it’s long enough that people have forgotten what an utter failure the whole thing was and why. One doesn’t create a lasting peace by steamrolling a place and shoot a bunch of people. Instead Israel is breeding the next generation of Hamas terrorist right now.

Oh, they are! It’s exactly what they want. Fascism has to have in- and out-groups to work.

We should go back to everybody competing naked like in the good old days of ancient Greece.
