The Armenian fugitive, the Greek wife, the Harvard son and the Bitcoin kid: Keeping up with the Nisanyans
- A family saga featuring shit on the table, weed, whisky, fraud, and more drama.

Hard to explain, but besides Turkey’s obliteration at the World Cup, Turkish X is consumed by Armenian-Turkish intellectual Sevan Nişanyan’s inheritance dispute with his two sons and ex-wife.
There is also a Greek current wife involved in the dispute.
Like an Ottoman novella.
Iranian F-5 pilot who bombed US Buehring base in Kuwait:
We were flying at an extremely, extremely low altitude.
From a flight-standard perspective, the standard training altitude is around 500 feet, but we were below 50 feet.
We knew that Patriot systems were deployed in the area, and that this base had multi-layered air defense. Given Kuwait’s cooperation, they were protecting this base, and scrambled F-18s were monitoring it.
Even though we knew AWACS aircraft were up there and surveillance/listening sites were active, the entire flight was conducted under complete radio silence.
I should mention here that there were 2-3 ships, we were flying so low that we passed between 2 ships, and their decks were higher than us. In other words, the sailors were looking down at us from the deck.
We passed through there, and thank God, entered Kuwaiti waters, and from there entered Kuwait itself.
When we entered Kuwait, the high-voltage power lines suddenly became 10x times more numerous. Their refineries and forces were along our route, all of them were within our reach.
We could have bombed them immediately without any problem. But our target was Camp Buehring.
We carried out this route at very high speed and very low altitude. And then, when we reached the base, we bombed it successfully.
Ülkemizin raylı sistem ulaşım altyapısı konusunda en başta gelen sorunlardan birisi vagon ve set yetersizliği. Gelişen raylı sistem hatlarımızın araç taleplerini karşılamak konusunda zorlanıyoruz. Bu bağlamda Türkiye’de yerli raylı sistem araçları üreten, 2020 yılında TCDD’nin 3 ortaklığı, TÜLOMSAŞ, TÜDEMSAŞ ve TÜVASAŞ’ı tek çatı altında birleştiren Türkiye Raylı Sistem Araçları Sanayii A.Ş. (TÜRASAŞ) devreye giriyor. Şirketin 2024 ve 2025 faaliyet raporları umut vaadediyor. Güçlü yanları ve riskleriyle inceleyelim.
@Truthful_ast посмотрел трейлер, это просто ужасно. - совершенно непохоже на СССР психологически, это не ментальность советских людей, тем более 1960-х.
- мрачный визуальный ряд, который вероятно должен контрастировать с солнечной Америкой 60-х
Take a step back, Starship Flight 12 had failures with components which were previously successful. New versions do not excuse going back. New Glenn, had an issue with its previous flight. Both Starship and New Glenn exploded within a year of each other testing. 3/n
@CydeWeys@ESGhound The problem is that LOX Methane blast models are outdated and not very accurate and more work needs to be done to properly characterize them because there's evidence the blasts are actually much more powerful than what the models predict. Which is a public safety issue
the funniest thing to me about the Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian/Montenegran distinction is they all use the same Shtokavian variety as their standard, despite there being fairly major regional variation.
in other words, there are dialects of Croatian that are much, much further from Standard Croatian than Standard Croatian is from Standard Serbian
@11K25_Energia Additional question: Did they have any intentions of using the triprop RD-0120 derivatives on an Energia derived LV?
And why did they abandon the 2 part tank layout that was present on the earlier Energia design?
On this day, 39 years ago, the Energia rocket made it's maiden flight carrying Polyus, a laser space weapon testbed, paving the way for the first and only flight of a Buran orbiter a year later.
In the spirit of tradition, here's a rundown.
@kemankes2121@zindagaro Elde gövdeleri en yeni olan M60A3'ler olması gerek. Bizim Leopard'lar safkan A4 olmadığı için M60A3'lerden daha eski üretim sanırım
