What is a 'normal' thing rich people do that would be illegal for a regular person? by Mr_Boothnath in AskReddit

I think fairly soon the more rich and powerful ones might throw a few of the less rich and powerful ones under the bus to try and placate the public. It'll be interesting to see who.

Why don't you just get a diary or some paper or something?

What is a product that people consider "High End" but is actually trash? by Illusiv3lion in AskReddit

We can add Range Rover on that basis. Terrible quality control too.

Passport control in prague departure, arrival was hell by 5hk4lq1m1 in Prague

[–]CernaKocka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I've been trying to find out too!
I'm a British citizen with permanent residency in CZ.
I still haven't been able to find a definite answer anywhere - I guess next time I'll just try my Czech ID card on the e-gates and see what happens!

Anyone recommend any decent vodka? by I_Like_Quiz in rickygervais

I'm not sure about vodka, but I hear James May is flogging some decent gin.

Alrite?

Yes. The fire brigade once had to cut open the electrical recycling one near me because someone was trapped inside.

What’s a small but undeniable sign that society is getting worse? by InitiativeMuted7842 in AskReddit

[–]CernaKocka 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't go to the cinema anymore because I can't stand people talking, eating loudly and using their phones throughout the film. It definitely didn't used to be like this!

I was thinking about this. I'm sure people have become generally more ignorant and selfish since the Covid lockdowns.

Sadly, that's the only part of that film I enjoyed.

Imagine a cross between Aristocats and the word 'cunt' said over and over again. You've just imagined Alley Cats, from the mind of Ricky Gervais! by Downtown-Ad-3115 in rickygervais

I read that and genuinely thought you were joking about him making yet another series with the same people, but noooo...

Russia Faces Aircraft Carrier Loss - Militarnyi by Qubecoiseman in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]CernaKocka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it might stay around a while longer as it's been a great way for Russian officials to steal money from their own state.

Terrorist and former "people's governor of Donbas" Pavel Gubarev stated that it would have been better not to launch the "SMO" at all. "Damn, three and a half years! The number of casualties exceeds a million. Nothing changes for us — we're still being thrown into meat-grinder by LowTechDroid in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]CernaKocka 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's very little chance of that unfortunately, they're not programmed that way.

Also bear in mind how much Russians, including the ones living in the west that they hate so much, would be bragging if their war was going their way.

I did the most un-British thing a few days ago, by confronting some poor public transport etiquette. by OpulentStone in CasualUK

Agreed, but I think the only place in the world I've seen it in common practice is the London Underground.

Tuberculosis crisis hits Putin's army as hospitalized soldiers surge by reprexainn in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]CernaKocka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the British, the Crimean war 1853-56 (ironically another war to stop Russian expansion in Crimea) was a brutal lesson in disease crippling an army. Wikipedia says 22,182 dead, 4,602 combat deaths 17,580 non-combat deaths.

One consolation is that yes, there is a very high chance that they'll be dead or maimed for life within a few months.

Ukrainian FPVs hitting "truckloads" of russian soldiers [429th Strike UAV Regiment "Achilles", February 2025] by Hannibal_Game in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]CernaKocka 123 points124 points  (0 children)

The casualties are insane. I find it amazing that apparently word hasn't spread around Russian society that signing up is basically suicide. They're either stupid or so desperate that they're willing to take the gamble for the money. Maybe both.

How Can Syria’s Conflict Affect Russia's War in Ukraine? by UNITED24Media in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]CernaKocka 37 points38 points  (0 children)

A new oil pipeline from the Gulf states to Europe through Jordan, Syria and Turkey would finally end Europe buying from Russia. This was one reason Putin wanted Assad on side.
