if you have to source your war machines from DPRK… you might be losing
Russia is not loosing. This is just part of the 5D chess Putin is playing. Any minute he will make his master move and conquer Ukraine, destroy NATO and fingerbang your dad. Just wait. You’ll see.
Jokes on you, my dad behaves like he is already being fingerbanged by Putler.
Are you Eric or Don Jr.?
As far as I am concerned, neither. He’s a lost cause tho.
Kyiv in 3 days!
Show me where Putin claimed he’d take Kyiv in 3 days.
How would you be able to see with putins cock so far down your throat?
That’s very generous, thinking Putin would ever stick his dick in any of these tankies’ holes.
They’re all just useful idiots, not even worth a bag of onions.
Sure. The minute you show me where I said Putin claimed it.
Oh my bad, for some strange reason I had assumed you were talking about Putin in a comment chain devoted to talking about Putin.
Generally, if someone quotes someone else, they put it in quotation marks. Hence my never claiming Putin said it.
On the other hand, there was the three-day plan, which I am sure you will deny existing or say is a Western lie.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Kyiv_convoy#Three_day_war_plan
But then I’m guessing you’ll also say the invasion was justified for one reason or another.
Bruh, you literally just linked to a paragraph that makes the claim that the idea of a three-day conquest came purely out of American and Ukrainian speculation. This is exactly what I’m saying, save for that one Lukashenko quote.
I’m not going to get into the weeds with you about the invasion, but I am going to call you out for sheisty implied quotes. Any reasonable and adequately uninformed person would read your “three day war” comment in response to a comment chain about putin and assume you were talking about putin. You deserve to get called out for that. It’s misleading and disingenuous.
I wouldn’t say the comment chain is talking about Putin, but someone aggrandising Putin.
They’ve moved on from “Putin didn’t say that” to “it was just speculation” because this was never actually about Putin to them, it was about justifying Russia’s invasion.
Bruh…
That’s the problem. This is an old school war. If Russia can keep moving the front lines the correct direction them nothing else matters. I don’t say this because I like Russia but because it shows how much more support we need to be giving Ukraine. The manpower difference is something like 4 to 1. The casualty ratio is something like 3 to 1 which is high but within Russian standards. If nothing changes Russia will win this in another few years.
There’s a lot of truth to that unfortunately. Historically, Russia has shown many times that any number of casualties is acceptable .
Historically inaccurate, and if they were sustaining “just” 1 in 4 they’re literally run out of guys before Ukraine.
If all that they have to continue throwing at this war is casualties, Ukraine has already won. Russia may have plenty of meat left but they do not have equipment left. And no war, especially a modern one, is going to be won without equipment and vehicles. Ukraine has NATO support behind them and Russia has… North Korea, maybe China if they’re feeling charitable that day.
I mean, nothing changing is a big ask, on both sides. It’s still up in the air, and hinges on the American election more than anything else at this moment.
Yeah we’re sorry about that. We still don’t know how we let our biggest adversary of the last 70 years infiltrate an entire political party.
Official and recognized military taxonomists insist that a vehicle doesn’t count as a tank unless it’s classified manuals and specs have been leaked in the World of Tanks forums.
*Warthunder
I’m sure there is a difference between warthunder and world of tanks. Next time I’m flying DCS, I’ll ask around if anybody has kids that play them.
Well, the main difference is Warthunder is the place where the classified stuff is being leaked
It’s not a tank unless it comes from the Tank region of France. Otherwise it’s a sparkling armored vehicle.
How far will they go before completely shaking apart? In meters?
Meters plural? Aren’t you optimistic.
I like to give people the benefit of the doubt.
There’s always intertia
Pedantry warning - we use the plural for decimal quantities less than 1 too. E.g. the tank only made it 0.8 meters before collapsing into a pile of low grade steel.
They may not be that bad. 7 cylinder engines with 5 valves per engine. Front engine, camshaft at the trunk. Revolutionary

Happy cake day
Thanks! Can’t believe it’s been a year since reddit imploded! 15 years there, walked away, never looked back!
It was 13 for me. My cake day was a month ago. Goodbye to Reddit forever as far as I’m concerned. I didn’t even get an IPO offer despite being a “power user,” probably because I changed my profile to say “FUCK REDDIT!” and gave lemmy.world’s URL.
I shut down every subreddit I modded permanently and was publicly screaming “fuck reddit” and “fuck spez” until the last minute.
Still got an IPO invite I ignored and even a mod meetup invite
Huh. I wonder why I didn’t?
I don’t really care since I wouldn’t have taken up their stupid offer, but I’m curious now.
I assumed they sent it to everyone, even my old reddit account with only 2000 karma got it
And even if i wanted, being not a us resident i couldn’t even actually get it
That’s fucking weird, my reddit account wasn’t quite a decade old and I got an offer, ninja edit to add “that I obviously did not accept”
it’s called lemon day over here
TIL. Cheers

Were there also NK soldiers? Or they just gave them the vehicles?
I can’t find anything on actual NK forces being deployed. Another user linked an article in English and near the end it postulates that this is sort of a win-win for NK that they can help their ally while gathering test data for the vehicles
And also get a king’s ransom off of Russia in exchange for saving their asses. I don’t know if they’re desperate for tanks yet, but that’s definitely the case with artillery. Calling them “allies” is probably a stretch.
