We wouldn’t be here if Trump was in office. You know it. I know it. The world knows it. TDS is a hella thing

TBF, there are only a handful of people that could be President and make the situation this bad.

To put things into perspective, US forces suffered 89,000 casualties in one and a half months of fighting in the Battle of the Bulge alone. Over a period of two and a half months, Okinawa produced about 75,000 to 82,000 US casualties with several hundred ships damaged and 36 sunk... the commanding US general killed by a Japanese artillery strike and a US brigadier general killed by Japanese machine gun fire.

This appears to be the largest number of casualties in this amount of time in a war since WWII, correct?

NATO estimate 15,000 killed, with total of 30,000 to 40,000 causalities (killed, wounded and POW)

The best place is on twitter with the OSIT people and some Ukraine reporters who are posting real video. Every day can be sum up as this:

1. Russia operation is stalled
2. Ukraine is conducting behind the line operation to disrupt C&C and supply operations - which keep Russian operation stalled
3. Russia has reverted to just launching long range missiles and destroying towns in hopes they can break Ukraine morale.
4. Ukraine is sniping off Russian generals/Colonels each week which helps keep the Russian operations stalled.

Just this morning they had a landing ship sunk in port that was trying resupply. If NATO estimate of casualties is true, Russia is either going to have to go full mobilization is going to have to do something "big" to change the narrative. Question is which will happen first:

1. Russia remove Putin?
2. Or will Russia use chemical weapons or tactical nukes?

The Russian war on Ukraine thread on Phog.net is a great way to keep up on things. They have two posters who give frequent updates.

Something from phog net...Lukashenko, the president of Belarus, not invading the Ukraine like he was supposed to do and Putin is very angry at him.

Hope this story is more than a phog of war headline...

Solar sails are supposed to be extremely fast in the vacuum of outer space, maybe they could make a "Solar Sail Ponderous-Sonic Missile".

That way no propellant would need to be used.

Yeah, we could ship the greenies off into deep space faster than any human has gone before with ion engines.

Honestly, if you’re serious about carbon footprints, blowing up hundreds of thousands of people has to be a net positive.

Only if blowing up Trump voters. The others want to pay carbon offset taxes, so they are net zero.

Hypersonic research won't be approved unless the proposed propellant is 100% electric.
