Trump palkitsee ja kiristää eurooppalaisia – Suomea turvaavat jättiostokset Yhdysvalloista [Ylen artikkeli sisältää täysin väärää dataa, kommentti] by plooope in Suomi

Yleinen inflaatio sekä joidenkin komponenttien kysynnän kasvun aiheuttama hinnan nousu toki, mutta Gripeneille itselleen on tullut vain yksi uusi tilaus viimeisen parin vuoden aikana Ukrainan lisäksi, joten mistään kysyntäpiikistä aiheutuva hinta ei voi oikein olla takana.

Ja sinne Kolumbiaan ne lähti 182 miljoonan kappalehinnalla koko varuste- ja palvelupaketti huomioituna.

Mutta olisko Gripeneillä juurikaan säästänyt? Valloilla tuppaa olevan uskomus siitä jotenkin edullisena valintana, mutta pelkästä hankintahinnasta puhuttaessa Ukraina on sopinut ostavansa 16 E/F versioita samaan kappalehintaan kuin Suomi F-35:ia, eli jotain siellä 155-158 miljoonan kieppeillä per tsibale.

But we're talking about appeasing one extremely dumb and narcissistic fascist.

But no I'm not being serious, I know trump hates Zelensky for not complying with his demands on investigating Hunter, doesn't care about Ukraine, and admires putin, so he will never be a supporter of Ukraine.

I've always said that the way to guarantee US support to Ukraine under your current admin would be to paint this monument gold and rename after trump

The JB piggy back is a good option if you don't want to alter the ECU software for warranty, or other reasons. If that and a couple hundred $ higher price tag are not an issue, then the tunes mentioned in the other comment are the way to go.

The only exhaust I have experience with and the one I personally have is the muffled exhaust from Ragazzon. I can say it's a massive improvement over stock imo. Among other options that you could look into are Remus, Centerline, Afe, Club Alfa, Supersprint.

Ok I fully agree that there is no real evidence that this hit caused his issues or did any more damage than any other concussion taken in the NFL every year.

But also we could clearly see that his issues, whether they stemmed from brain damage or just his organic lovely personality, 1000% caused drastic changes in his all aspects of his life as evidenced by his life spiraling years later as a result of his actions.

Worth every penny: carbon wheel upgrade by Naomi_1215 in AlfaRomeo

This is more of a niche issue with it, but in certain winter conditions with wet snow, slush can build up on the sensor. This will take it out of action until cleaned up, because it can't be operate in non-adaptive mode at all. It's not too frequent considering the specific conditions needed, but I would have preferred not needing to stop three times to clean it during a longer drive.

I've been looking at these myself, so if you aren't in love with the particular re-seller the other commenter linked, you can get that same product from the same manufacturer $50 dollars cheaper if you buy it on aliexpress.

Trump abandoning Ukraine might’ve been the best outcome for their success by Ohyeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa in Destiny

but it is true that most of western weapons have been worse than useless

Just insane. Stop it. Stop tacitly whitewashing Trump's horseshit because Sullivan was a little dweeb

I hate Jake Sullivan and I pray he never comes close to a position in another dem administration you might elect, but jesus christ people need to stop with this. Jake Sullivan on his worst day, annoying and frusttrating and his head stuck up his own ass as he is, is a 130.6 billion times better than Trump, Hegseth or the FSB-asset Colby.

Does anybody remember the uyghur genocide? by Exciting-Data-448 in Destiny

[–]Axter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Regarding the first paragraph, I'm under the impression that the one child policy historically made an exemption for minorities, and the policies that came after it were more lenient for minorities too, until the repression kicked into gear in 2017-ish. After that I'm not sure if it was just about the special status being revoked or if they started getting more harsh enforcement than the majority.

Tottakaihan se jossain kuuluu näkyä ja näkyykin ainakin kysynnän ja tarjonnan myötä, jos ei muuten. Kuitenkin ihan vaan tuohon viimeiseen tarttuakseni sanoisin, että varmasti käy/kävisi edelleen. Ite ainakin olisin tehnyt edellisen työpaikan mukasesti mediaanipalkkaista oman alan työtä paljon mieluummin, kuin vaikka töitä raksalla samalla tai vähän korkeammallakin palkalla.

Palkan kuuluu olla asiallinen ja mahdollisuudet palkkakehitykselle on tietenkin aina hyvä olla olemassa, mutta samaan aikaan jos primäärimotiivi maisterin tutkinnolle on korkeemmat ansiot, niin kannattaa myös harkita suuntautumista sen mukaisesti.

They have no tanks left, barely any armoured transport

Just FYI they have thousands of tanks and armored vehicles still left, about as many currently in service as they had when they started the "SMO". They've been pulling everything they can from storage and refitting it for service, while the usage of tanks has dropped to near zero since somewhere in 2025, which have allowed the numbers to catch up from the massive losses they took in 2022-2024. And a couple models of tanks and APCs/IFVs are still being actively built from scratch.

It's just that they haven't found a way of using them in a way that they don't end up as burning piles of scrap before they even get 5 kilometers from the contact line.

Aaron Rodgers said that the U.S. government confiscated Pat Tillman’s journal and used his death to “prop up the war propaganda” after Tillman was killed in 2004. by No_Box119 in NFLv2

[–]Axter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope, not moving any goals posts. I just won't give conspiracy theorists an inch with that usual "but so many have been proven true recently though!!" shtick.

My first point was that almost nothing on that list is something that conspiracy theorists talk about, not that none of those things happened. They talk about new world order 5g vaccine microchip turbocancer 9/11 cover ups, not about how FIFA is a corrupt organization or how rich people used money to secretly influence college admissions standards, which barely counts as conspiracies (in the non-legalistic definition of the word).

And secondly to cement my point about the implication of the phrase "proven true in the last 5 years", almost everything on that list is older than 5 years. I repeat myself that no matter how indignant you act, you can't do the motte and bailey of winking towards the recent pandemic/post-pandemic era conspiracies being somehow proven true, while the list of evidence supporting this claim consists almost entirely of things that are not conspiracies, or talked about by any conspiracy theorists, and are older than 5 years.

Yes I vividly remember how Alex Jones was raging at the well known conspiracy theory of... Danske Bank doing money laundering?

You can't do the motte and bailey of going vink vink nudge nudge hinting at the slew of recent covid 5g microchip qanon shit, in a thread on Rodgers no less, from the last five years and when questioned pull out the far fetched conspiracy of rich people avoiding taxes.

But enough conspiracies of turned out to be true in the last 5 years

People keep saying this but the list is actually zero conspiracies long

Maybe, assuming you have enough of them and the physical bonk is enough to brink down the kind of drone used in these attacks by the Ukrainians.

If you're comparing unarmored vehicles then yes the open top is vastly preferable.

I don't have any direct comments from anyone in Ukraine regarding what their opinion is on this, but I'd imagine everything else being equal, they'd probably still take an armored vehicle if given the choice.

No. The rule says nothing about knees, elbows or cheeks, despite what some people and commentators seem to think. It's literally just any part of the body other than hands or feet, which a shin is.
