Just as you Pentagon troll cannot keep distance. Your Presidents also short for their words. Chill the fuck down.
Lol wow 131 with highs is 139.. man..a single sheet of toilet paper is worth more then the Ruble.. so is your feeble attempt to “pacify” GBATEMP with Kermlin propaganda a coping mechanism for the fact your Kremlin salary is worthless and the tech world has abandoned Russian…

1. Where can it take that power then? Most of european fabrics are heavily dependant on gas.
2. I don't feel like it. I know the difference and that's enough for me. This is a free forum and I have my right to say whatever I want as long as I don't show rudeness or affect persons. You at the other hand already crossing some lines even being a moderator. My personality is not of your concern at all.

1. We will be fine.
2. Nah, this is a free forum after all. I have the same right as you to say whatever I want. I just don't accept people from Russia claming this war is just.

That's a great way to escalate this conflict even more
Well North Korea, China and Russia (Putin) have threatened the whole world about nuclear nukes a few times these past 2 years.

Are you claiming Biden is innocent on all of this? Because didn't he literally destroy USA oil plants and instead would opt for Russian oil? Same as energy?
You've got :
1) Biden assisting Russia money-wise, or are you sure Putin's income is 100% in-house?
2) USA's inflation. and all countries paying Russia's war through taxes.

Escalation what were you saying? Or maybe... you don't want the truth on your face?

USA oil is lightweight and cannot stand equal to Russian or Saudi Arabian's oil. It's just has a poor quality.

The US Light and sweet oil are higher quality than opec.

did you read the actually letters.. I read it on Sat. and my mind was blown. FSB agents state that Russia agency did not even believe Putin was going to start the "WAR". and that this is a Win or collapse for Russia..

and it also Explains why Zelensky is still alive and Chechens mission failed spectacularly because Russian Agents leak it.
I did.

Apparently confirmed by other sources as well. So yeah... this must all been Putin and no one else.

what is also interesting is that Belarus is at the point of Collapse also, when the Army refused to participate in Russias WAR, if reports are true several high level military resigned and soldiers refusing to be on the boarder. and lets not forget Tikhanovskaya is gaining steam...

I mean it's been unstable since the last election. It's a powder keg ready to go off any moment.

Funny thing is they were considering on helping them but as soon as wind carried that up high countries started sanctioning the shit out of them too. Its a no win situation for Russia's army right now.

Right now Putin might not have a lot of moves left, that can be a very good thing, or an extremely bad thing depending on the outcome.

the very few outcomes... 1) Russia takes over Ukriane ( and deal will a Resistance force that will never calm) and creates a Iron curtain, where the world Shuns them
2) the Collapse of Russia ( and possible China Gobbling Russia assesets. )
3) Nuke the world


I don't see Putin Willingly giving up

In terms of ukraine he will front it out whatever.

If all the russian soldiers come back in body bags then he can just shrug it off.

Not without some proper encouragement from his countryfolk short of rising up against him and flipping the Kremlin over. That said I see an unfortunate scenario where he might attempt to use nuclear faculties to take down the capital as his means of claiming victory.

It could get very grim unless someone takes the fight to his comfort zone.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
