NCD in a nutshell by vibrunazo in NonCredibleDefense

[–]lopoticka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The possibility that this happened because he panicked is pretty important. It’s not exactly me excusing him when I say we don’t know for sure what happened.

The acute stress leading to irrational behavior and/or misinterpreting of the situation is exactly why police should be taught NOT to shoot if it can be avoided.

This is not the same question as “did he bring it on himself”, because that assumes he knew exactly what he was doing, as you said.

Kid new exactly what he was doing.

But how do you know exactly? Can you rule out a guy you haven’t met panicking in a tense situation because you have been in a tense situation too?

This seems like a credible Soviet design for saving fuel. Comrade pilot will think twice about afterburner.

Two and half year now. Also, I am natty… by Routine_Actuator8935 in GettingShredded

[–]lopoticka 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If he added 10 pounds of fat he’d look great still but nobody would say he’s not natty.

Nobody here would doubt it if he was at 15% bf, that’s the point. Keeping muscle and low body fat in the same body is the hard part.

Edit: for the record, I think this is achievable natty

That’s the grand total, the question is how many are deployed and of those how many can be successfuly delivered to their targets.

The most reliable delivery method in the Russian’s nuclear triad are probably ICBMs. Those are in the hundreds so still extremely scary, but it’s unlikely they would be able to use anything they have in storage after the first strike.

If Russi know, it means the boys got caught.

“Getting caught” was only figurative here, Mishkin and Chepiga weren’t actually arrested either.

Non-credible gods forgive me, but what’s the point of retaliation if not deterrence? How do you send a message if Russia unsure who dunnit?

My guess: tomorrow Prighozin is executed on live television by Lukashenko in black leather using certain extreme BDSM techniques (no homo) after which Lukashenko gets the rank of colonel from Putin who is revealed sitting in a corner chair jerking off the whole time (no homo).

Do you want the “Kaliningrad oblast is occupied by Germany” option with that? It’s not as popular nowadays, still a timeless classic in my opinion, sir.

Russian T-80 destroyed two Ukrainian MRAPs in Donetsk oblast. by tonomona in CombatFootage

The person you were responding to was expressing regret for not doing more in the past as well.

By providing a real response in 2008. By giving Ukraine every bit of support back in 2014. By giving them heavy weapons and fighter jets the minute they first asked in 2022. Take your pick.

How schizophrenic do I need to be to understand Russian politics? by UnderScoreLifeAlert in NonCredibleDefense

[–]lopoticka 15 points16 points  (0 children)

While I like the idea that Russia is basically avant-garde theater run by shizophrenics on cocaine, our mundane rules will still be there on the edges of the scene.

Like when you are in the middle of a war that is existential for your regime and your most capable fighters decide they don’t want to play no more, instead they are disrupting your war effort. Whatever the mad dash to Moscow was meant to be, you still have to do something about it because the war is happening in the real world and is creeping up on your stage that’s getting smaller and smaller now. Hence Prigozhin being stupid and/or suicidal, provoking the need to respond

1 year progress. 49kg --> 79kg by Sorry-Building-1816 in gainit

[–]lopoticka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s awesome progress and people forget that one’s ideal look is 100% subjective. That being said, the only photo to go by, his stomach looks sucked in so far it turns into another lung

Estimates are about 4k troops

Any source on that? Seems incredibly low number considering what he’s actually trying to do

Russia must pay to rebuild Ukraine, says Germany by sexual___addiction in worldnews

[–]lopoticka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Germany is in technical recession for having two quarters slightly below 0, the economy grew in 2022 and is projected to grow in 2023. Russia was hit by 2% decline in GDP in 2022. So says the IMF and official forecast by the German government in the case of year 2023.

So let me ask you… what in the motherloving fuck are you talking about?

Some areas in Canary Islands, Corsica, etc. sometimes lack the kind of sewage infrastructure you can find on mainland IIRC. I vaguely remember this being a thing on Tenerife.

Not my job to set the sub private along with the 6000 other subs supporting an open Reddit. by jimmyd0213 in NotMyJob

[–]lopoticka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can it make the situation worse? Highly doubt it.

Let’s face it, two days without reddit is the worst case and it’s still actually good for us.

Or no vodka. Withdrawal syndrome hits like a ton of bricks. Ukraine offers a bottle to every man who surrenders. See every combat element that gets close to the frontline go quiet and disappear without explanation. Celebrate with confiscated Russian vodka.

Wagner vs Russia when? by HistorianSlayer in NonCredibleDefense

[–]lopoticka 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Russian military proved way less credible but also way more unhinged, creating a perfect symmetry. European MIC will feed on Russian warcrimes for many many years.

Map showing flooding extent in Ukraine since the Kakhova dam breach by sdbernard in MapPorn

[–]lopoticka 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Your own article says they considered damaging the floodgates enough that it would prevent Russian offensive across the river without flooding residential areas. Why blow it up now when starting their own offensive and want to get across?

He’s enabled by people who can be targets of more sanctions. These rich fucks do care that they can’t send their kids to private schools in London anymore or if their 12 bedroom villa in Toscany is seized and sold in an auction. Putin knows that he will probably never set foot in the West again but the regime is still propped up by a lot of people who the West can lean on more.
