My original comment was that it doesn't make sense to get wound up over it. But given Ukraine complaints about things, I guess that overrides all. As for the US in Iraq (or Vietnam, USSR in Afghanistan, etc) I would be very surprised if any noticed or cared that much, relative to the things they were doing at the time.

Yes, but so what, in terms of impactful action the US has its veto, so it's not dire. It shouldn't be absurd at this point given nations have held the presidency while droning, bombing or invading other countries. And they held it last year, and things went fine. Also really, speaking of "values of the UNSC", amusing.

Funny headline, I forget Ukraine is master of us all. I don't know why there's such a fuss over it, is a monthly rotation and I don't think they get any fancy powers or such and even if they did, the vetoes exist

Youtube recommendations, let's beat the algorithm
Malcador replied to Sarex's topic in Way Off-Topic
Mostly dilettante type stuff like Kurzgesagt, Tom Scott, History Matters, Epic History, PBS Space Time. Other than that some WoW streamers, Forgotten Weapons and Russian language learning channels to round it out. -
Can't wait for the MAGA riots.

I generally am good about not clicking on stuff I am not interested in, I keep my Youtube account just to favourite videos. Looked at history and I realized the anti-Woke crap was probably due to watching a video on differences between branches of Christianity. Might be missing something but I find it doesn't really follow with what I'm searching elsewhere.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/30/europe/turkey-vote-finland-nato-membership-intl/index.html Still won't be enough to save us from 10,000 years of darkness if Ukraine falls.

Not too sure Japan, Australia and ROK will be enough to hold back China. But not as if the US is really tied down right now. Yet another data point of ammo expenditures being a problem when you're not fighting insurgents (although I guess sometimes even then - Israel had issues in 2006, if I recall)

Was just thinking of Spanish issues with their Leopards - they were in a rough way, I believe. But, yeah, it being a newer system is probably more likely.

Cheap land that's not a frozen hell in winter like Saskatchewan, I guess.

Yeah, is why Canada is going to be the last to stop sending stuff. Well...ok, given our military we may run out stuff to send long before that regardless. But can send money.

Basically how he sees himself in his films.

Well, wouldn't say people are bored here in Canada, definitely is less energetic than 6 months ago, way less than this time last year obviously.
-
Well, that's what Putin says anyway. Think whatever Ukrainian offensive goes on this summer or spring will determine that. Czech President said as much https://kyivindependent.com/czech-president-believes-ukraine-has-one-attempt-to-carry-out-major-counteroffensive/

Well obviously not Volo.

Random video game news... RNG says "Nope"

Ah ok. Well in that case, maybe Avellone can milk his supporters.
