  • Agree.

    Keep in mind, the Kursk offensive’s goal seemed to be to take control of the Kursk nuclear power plant to threaten a nuclear meltdown on Russian soil and/or to take control of nuclear weapons nearby. In other words, Ukraine tried to directly threaten nuclear war as a bargaining chip.

    If Ukraine and NATO wants nukes that badly, Russia should deliver them the experience, whether via nukes or conventional munitions. I honestly do not give a shit anymore what happens to the Ukronazis. If they want to get glassed that badly, Russia should give it to them.


  • I just don’t see what Russia loses from doing so anymore. All of NATO is already attacking them, so the only real further escalation is nukes.

    NATO is already sending all its gear to Ukraine, so no new gear will magically appear if Russia starts striking Poland and Romania. In the grand scheme, it would actually make things easier for Russia since they can take out command, control, and repair centers used by Ukraine that they currently allow to exist in NATO countries.



  • If you watch the most recent show with Scott Ritter (full summary by me here), he reports from Russian sources that Russia has already knocked out the Kursk invasion’s logistics, is capturing their equipment, and now just has to kill and capture the leftover Ukrainian stragglers.

    The invasion force was equipped with the nicest NATO gear, indicating this incursion was planned and executed by NATO, not Ukraine alone. Do not believe the shit in the media about Zelensky ordering this alone. NATO ordered this, its failure is just a nice excuse to get rid of Zelensky for someone more malleable.

    We will see severe Russian retaliation for this, possibly even attacking F16 bases in Poland and Romania in return.

    We can guarantee this is pretty accurate because Ritter has talked with Apti Alaudinov earlier, one of the Russian commanders assigned to clean up the invasion.




  • Oh, you paid for the iOS app? That’s a one-time payment to help the devs pay for Apple’s Developer Fees (because for some fucking reason, developing for Apple costs each dev 99USD per year + requires a Mac).

    No other platform is that entitled, so no other OS apps require you to pay. This issue is a big reason why open-source apps are less popular on iOS.

    Apple has the gall to make developers pay for the privilege of making apps, then makes them pay a massive cut of any in-app purchases. By adding this fee, Apple incentivizes devs to add in-app purchases so they don’t lose money, ultimately making Apple even more money.
