It’s just like their foxbat claims…turned out it was a flying brick.

Edit: apparently I pissed off some tankies lol

It’s well known that the foxbat was heavily exaggerated in its capabilities. It’s how we ended up with the f15 and it’s insane capabilities. Just like now russia fighting in Ukraine, paper tiger.

The American consumer is swimming in debt. What new cars they buy is not indictive of affordable. Look at the loan lengths from 10 years ago to today. 72 month loans are now normal, and 84/96 is becoming more normal than they should.

Here’s you making excuses for removing all the Russians from the contributor list: “Russia invaded a sovereign nation…but that’s a petty dispute…are you sure you’re on the right instance? Sounds like you need to recreate your account here on ml…”

Where is that a excuse? I was pointing out that it’s not a petty dispute, russia is trying to wipe out Ukraine…the fuck.

Your logic, if you can call it that, is that if the country you’re from invades a sovereign nation, it makes sense to get kicked off the list. Guess which country invades sovereign nations every 3-6 years.

Ooo oo, I know this one…is it…whataboutism again for $400 alex?

To make another point, of course the US is relevant, its government is the one making this exact thing happen.

Yea…no it’s not, russia is doing that on their own.

No more excuses, champ. Gotta look reality straight in the face.

Ok. Reality, russia is a fucked up authoritarian state that willfully sends it’s people to rape, murder and commit war crimes, like it got its war plans from the viking era. How’s that for some reality. Champ.

lol no it isn’t.

Yea…yea it is.

Yes we all know this.

Sweet…are we getting somewhere…

The US has invaded at least 4 sovereign nations in the last 21 years. It has bombed far more in that time, including couping Libya, turning it from the highest HDI country into a failed state with open air slave markets.

Ahhh nope apparently not…still humping about the USA.

The RF has been comparatively less harsh on civilians. Look at what the US, NATO, and Israel do to civilians. They bomb residential buildings, pharmaceutical factories, hospitals, schools, buses, civilian infrastructure. Millions died in Iraq, about half children, in the 90s due to the US systematically destroying civilian infrastructure and then coordinsting tight sanctions.

Hahahhaha holy fuck…o wait you’re a tankie…

And do you know what preceded the RF invasion? Ukraine ramping up its civilian shelling campaign in Donbas.

And a russian apologist…man this is just hilarious…you really are following the .ml tankie guidelines.

Given what the West does with its power that is a smart position to take.

Lol for all the west’s faults, we’re still not even half as murderous as the authoritarian dictatorships you love.

Yes and? You’re just admitting that this is a chauvinist political move headed by the United States.

Yea no…

It’s not a security risk at all, the Linux team has tight review procedures and all of these people have been making contributions as maintainers. There were zero concerns raised about their code.

Because it’s easier to just use sanctions as the reason. The idea that a authoritarian state wouldn’t force their devs to create backdoors for their state is hilariously naive, but you won’t see it that way because you’re a brainwashed tankie.

PS the US is not entitled to the world and every international project.

Yea no shit? Who said they are?

Native, but yeah sure, and when we invaded Iraq and Afghanistan, I agree with you, but Iraq and Afghanistan didn’t have a bunch of devs that worked on an OS that the world uses. It’s a security issue more than anything.

It’s a security risk is how it’s being looked at as well.

No this has nothing to do with the USA right now. It’s a strawman to whip out the “but the USA” card. Russia has sanctions, they invaded a sovereign nation, and are willfully targeting civilians. They’re fully against the west at this point, allowing them continued access to help build tools the west uses, is not only against the current sanctions, it’s also a dumb security risk as well.

A full scale war on a sovereign nation is not a random petty dispute…the fuck is wrong with you?

Well it’s time for everyone to do their civic duty and drive by an abortion clinic once or twice a month and sit in the parking lot for 5 or 10mins to fuck up their data.

The USA isn’t in this discussion right now. Russia invaded Ukraine and is trying to kill Ukrainians to take over their country. Iraq and Afghanistan wasn’t a petty dispute either. You tankies are shitty people.

Russia invaded a sovereign nation…but that’s a petty dispute…are you sure you’re on the right instance? Sounds like you need to recreate your account here on ml…

I saw this documentary where taco bell won them.

You mean that people are annoyed that tankies like you, want to turn this into an echo chamber that’s just like the right wing republicans…and that bothers you?

Edit: checking your history… yes you’re a solid tankie idiot.

Lol no they have not

NASA has a ton of internal bureaucracy, hell they have an article on it.

https://www.nasa.gov/missions/artemis/nasa-vision-sparked-commercial-space-revolution-on-space-coast/

You’re joking right? No they have not… I love NASA, but acting like what spacex has done is only because of NASA is bullshit.

Cool, then get NASA to actually do something vs hamstringing itself with bureaucrats…the only reason people like you rage against SpaceX is because it’s tied to that idiot musk.

+1 for boost as well here. It’s the closest I got to RIF, which was awesome… sucks that the dev went to tildes, with not even half the activity as lemmy.

I understand it is. It’s one of my favorite sci-fi movies, but like myself and others we were confused with the scene, but others have explained it.

I mean it’s not because there are a lot of people asking about it online.

O damn never thought of it that way. I went and looked it up further and you’re spot on, it seems it was put into the movie to make people become farmers and not look to space. Basically try and solve the problems on earth.
