There's a price for everything. If remote employees have lowered wages because they can't keep up with on-site employees I don't really see a problem. I think that's highly individual BTW. Besides, there's more to life than being maximally efficient and loyal to the few people at the top of the...

Decent status update:

Another map:

Yeah my impression is homophobic cursing is pretty popular in Ukraine unfortunately. That's why Sun etc. are tempted to adjust the translation. Now it's not the right time to tell the soldiers how they should curse, though.

Russia destroyed a lot of Ukrainian drones tonight by colliding three airbases into them: https://kyivindependent.com/russia-claims-over-110-downed-drones/

Thanks for elaborating. I just had a few beers leftover from last Friday so I will deliberate tomorrow, hah.

On the whole: depends on your perspective to life. Do you have any obligations to the country you live in? Or do you run away at first sign of trouble. Guessing ET overall has an atypical leaning towards the latter, since my impression over the years is that there's a statistic tendency towards...

Nice, a lot of new info to me. I think it's important to define whether one talks about the theoretical or practical limits. The former is just a simplified numbers exercise. But it's of course a ridiculous notion that every single adult male could be sent to become a casualty at the front and...

Yeah we "enslave" every single Swedish citizen that's capable in times of war as well, you might not end up in the army but you're required to aid in what is called total defense regardless, even if that's simply showing up at work. There's no other democratic reasonable way to defend a country...

Attack on military airbase near Moscow: Lots of unconfirmed reports about captured villages and deeper advances in several places in Kursk and Belgorod oblasts, but I will wait a bit for a summary.

lol a bot posted literally after you.

Some nice beginner level insight in this thread but I can't help to think a signficant number of contributers are bots. Don't feel offended there are obvious humans as well.

Yeah first it was "100 men" and now "1000" according to stupidly conservative estimates. I'd assume a couple of tens of thousands. The milblogger I'm following suggests a pattern from the Kupiansk sprint will repeat where initially it will go slowly, but as Russian defenses collapse a progress...

Ukraine attacked a new location in Kursk oblast separate from the Sudzha offensive, Tetkino:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/aug/11/thousands-of-ukrainian-troops-aim-to-destabilise-russia-with-kursk-incursion We are on the offensive. The aim is to stretch the positions of the enemy, to inflict maximum losses and to destabilise the situation in Russia as they are unable...
