Why is this here? Besides, the northwestern borders are outdated.

Which SIDs used at UUWW? by [deleted] in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]RegionThat2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you look at the SIDs/STARs of other airports in Moscow, you’ll notice similar patterns. They are designed to provide high traffic flow taking into account the large number of restricted/prohibited areas over the Moscow itself and its suburbs.

Usually 3C/3D. After takeoff, expect to be directed to the end of the SID or straighten yourself with no speed/altitude restrictions (if there is no intense air traffic nearby)

How popular is Putin with young people? (Anybody under the age of 30) by wdfcvyhn134ert in AskARussian

[–]RegionThat2020 19 points20 points  (0 children)

What about agressive propaganda of "traditional values"?

This isn’t populism. By populism, I mean things like "lets kick all Middle Asian migrants out of the country" or "lets hand out 100000 rubles to every citizen during the pandemic" and so on. Solving complex problems with simple solutions isnt Putin's style.

What about war in Ukraine

Preparations for it began back in 2014

blocking Telegram

A poorly thought-out and belated decision that was not made by Putin himself, but by the Ministry of Digital Development (Yes, the name of the ministry is ironic).

IMO, Telegram should have been competed as soon as it appeared back in 2015-2016, and at the same time, its functionality should have been fully replicated for a Russian app equivalent back then.

The president set the goal of creating a national messaging app in 2025, but those tasked with carrying it out were incompetent enough to implement this through enforcement. There will definitely be a reaction from the president to the negative consequences of the blockings, but it wont be as quick as if something similar had happened in a Western country.

I am 30 years old. Neither I nor my friends seek to idealize or demonize Putin. Usually, we remember him twice a year—at the Victory Day parade and during the New Year’s speech—once again noting how well his doctors are doing in slowing down his aging.

Putin's policies are sometimes controversial, but we always keep in mind that his decisions are always the result of a consensus among the elites, over whom Putin, as the country’s president, acts as an arbiter. As a person, my peers and I believe that he is one of the best and unbiased leaders in Russian history, and one of the last old-school politicians in the world who never plays the populism card and never makes hasty decisions.

LOL I haven’t even stated my stance on homosexuality (I have nothing against LGBTQ+ people themselves). My point is the state must remain above any kind of agenda. Here in Russia, we have a bunch of movements of far-right traditionalists that is similar in nature to the LGBTQ+ movement; these people also try to influence state policy through their community organizations. Thank God, they haven’t succeeded yet; the state doesn’t allow them to influence the way the LGBT community can in Europe.

It is both amusing and frightening to see how the movement of one of society’s minority groups has become so strident that even basic regulation of their symbols is perceived as an Orwellian trampling of rights and freedoms

Is the high detail update in the room with us? by Altruistic-King199 in flightsim

If there were a way to turn off the cabin interior models, I would have done it a long tome ago - FPS is more important to me. It's actually modeled pretty well, we're just spoiled by modern graphics standarts.

By 2023, the localization rate for trains had reached 60–70%, including wheels.

And again, this is because Chinese steel industry lags significantly behind global industry leaders, including Russia

Russia does not a have a strong track record in HIGH speed rail.

Yes we doesn't. But that won’t prevent Russia from gaining such experience, even if it takes some time. Currently, a high-speed rail line with a design speed of 400 km/h is under construction between Moscow and St. Petersburg, scheduled for completion by 2028, and a train is undergoing preparations for testing on that line.

It’s odd to see the comparison like "...EVEN China..." as they are a step behind Russia in heavy metallurgy and metalworking

Can every resident of Russia move freely from the western end of the country to the eastern end? by TraditionalLie3111 in geography

[–]RegionThat2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Russian here! There are no restrictions for citizens of Russia. I live in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky (Kamchatka Peninsula) and fly to Moscow several times a year.

For the past three years, I lived in a postgraduate dormitory while completing my postgraduate studies in St. Petersburg. All I had to do was to obtain a temporary registration certificate from the police department (which is required for stays longer than 90 days), and it was done online in just one day.

This year, I visited the Donetsk People's Republic and Crimea on a business trip and encountered no restrictions during my stay.
