The latest tiff with Poland and Ukraine was amusing - https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-66873495 For a laugh, here's the Telegraph's take on it- https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/09/21/poland-weapons-grain-ukraine-putin/ . Been walked back already by Poland though. Ukrainian officials seem to not really know their place in things, though, still trying this shaming as a motivator.

Not sure said thread would be that popular, given he was referring to the Second Congo War. Interesting requirements to care though, one is being on the continent and two is only if a regional organization does.

UNSC meeting today was entertaining, Russian rep challenging Zelensky being there and then getting a shut down by the council President. The Albanian representative did comment on indifference to Ukraine, although he didn't really give a good argument about why this isn't like wars in other places where it's just a problem for local nations. "An aggression in Europe's heart cannot be Europe's problem only". I can't help but get a little bit of a laugh when people go on as if this war is a nightmare without compare in recent times.

Well ceasing use of PPPoE seems to resolve the phone problem. No sense to me why that would cause issues with the VoIP through the ISP modem but eh. Moved family over to the ISP router as well. Annoying issue but at least that fire is out

Not sure the aspiration you're attributing is that on, Ukraine killing their own people with an errant missile or bullet isn't really showing them as "bad". Worst it will be is just liars, but lying in war is to be expected. As for indifference to people getting wasted, nothing new. Maybe D'Agata was on to something though about relative civilization.

Ukrainian diplomacy is a sight to behold. Money talks.

That's a convenient dodge for Ukrainian soldiers then.

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/18/world/europe/ukraine-missile-kostiantynivka-market.html NYT looking for trouble, now.

Switched from copper to fiber for phone 5 months back. Now getting what sounds like packet loss, called ISP tech and it seems like my router is the problem. Disconnected everything except the ER-X, still got noise. Disconnect that and noise goes. Switched to a spare ER-X and copied config, still getting it. I guess I use PPPoE in the router, but surprised that would cause VoIP issues 5 months after I set it up. Pain in the neck

And with Kadyrov dead, Chechnya will rise up and be free.

Applies when the rumour is something you like, naturally. I have RUMINT, you have propaganda.

He was rumoured to be ill last year or so, not quite a case of Shoigu dead.

Was fun to go back to form at work - process failing because the memory was below a threshold ? Easy solution, set the threshold to 0

Apparently they liberated Andriivka and encircled and wiped out a brigade. Well so says the Ukrainian MoD, for what that's worth. Liberation of the village seems to be correct, at least.

Guess will wait for new PC to play this

Damage to the dry dock may be the bigger deal.

Considering who it's a donation from, no.

Hah, not sure what is redefining warfare about using a cruise missile.

New races in WoW so doing those, some of these challenge races are pretty hard, one has a super unrealistic gold time. Is also fun to get a good run, and then be 0.01 seconds over the gold time.

And wear a stab resistant vest when on public transportation

I said wrecked, not obliterated
