@ESoftturtle@razorfist Yes that's the sound of reality going right over your head, but go on, back to twitch with you. Maybe someone will click off a hot tub stream by mistake.
@DaveSommervill3 @uapresearch97@LtTimMcMillan Putin hasn't sent the reserves though, we've seen multiple Guards units in the front lines of the fighting. The once legendary VDV has gotten smashed repeatedly, usually by national guard troops just to add insult to injury. We've seen plenty of modern gear.
@uapresearch97@LtTimMcMillan Exactly 0. To engage against an actual modern, well disciplined and highly motivated professional force? Well like I said elsewhere, I pity the poor bastards tasked to assault the Polish border.
@LtTimMcMillan Forget Article 5, I legit feel bad for the Russian armed forces if they're stupid enough to take a crack at the Poles. It's tantamount to suicide.
@firefox You latest update sucks. Switching to another browser. Thanks for making downloads annoying enough to change browsers entirely, that takes a lot of work.
@Mattfunky2 @thehistoryguy Marine archeology and wreck charting is purely philanthropic. Paul Allen was famous for doing so, and Caladan Oceanic found USS Johnston. CO's founder is passionate about historical shipwrecks. Ditto Clive Cussler's IRL NUMA group.
@misciel @thehistoryguy Just knowing where the wreck is adds understanding and context to historical events. Marine archeology is quite do able these days thanks to ROVs, and we can get a lot of data about the wreck from surveys, both using standard photos, modeling software, and other tools.
