Official and recognized military taxonomists insist that a vehicle doesn’t count as a tank unless it’s classified manuals and specs have been leaked in the World of Tanks forums.

*Warthunder

yesman ,

I’m sure there is a difference between warthunder and world of tanks. Next time I’m flying DCS, I’ll ask around if anybody has kids that play them.

Well, the main difference is Warthunder is the place where the classified stuff is being leaked

It’s not a tank unless it comes from the Tank region of France. Otherwise it’s a sparkling armored vehicle.

I would really like a better source than the sensationalist garbage that is Der Spiegel.

Your opinion seems to be at odds with mediabiasfactcheck.com/spiegel-online/

Uh oh. I messed up. Was thinking about Bild.

Thanks! Can’t believe it’s been a year since reddit imploded! 15 years there, walked away, never looked back!

It was 13 for me. My cake day was a month ago. Goodbye to Reddit forever as far as I’m concerned. I didn’t even get an IPO offer despite being a “power user,” probably because I changed my profile to say “FUCK REDDIT!” and gave lemmy.world’s URL.

kboy101222 ,

I shut down every subreddit I modded permanently and was publicly screaming “fuck reddit” and “fuck spez” until the last minute.

Still got an IPO invite I ignored and even a mod meetup invite

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Huh. I wonder why I didn’t?

I don’t really care since I wouldn’t have taken up their stupid offer, but I’m curious now.

mecfs OP ,

Russia is not loosing. This is just part of the 5D chess Putin is playing. Any minute he will make his master move and conquer Ukraine, destroy NATO and fingerbang your dad. Just wait. You’ll see.

derpgon ,

Jokes on you, my dad behaves like he is already being fingerbanged by Putler.

Kyiv in 3 days!

Ferrous ,

Show me where Putin claimed he’d take Kyiv in 3 days.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Sure. The minute you show me where I said Putin claimed it.

Ferrous ,

Oh my bad, for some strange reason I had assumed you were talking about Putin in a comment chain devoted to talking about Putin.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Generally, if someone quotes someone else, they put it in quotation marks. Hence my never claiming Putin said it.

On the other hand, there was the three-day plan, which I am sure you will deny existing or say is a Western lie.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Kyiv_convoy#Three_d…

But then I’m guessing you’ll also say the invasion was justified for one reason or another.

Ferrous ,

Bruh, you literally just linked to a paragraph that makes the claim that the idea of a three-day conquest came purely out of American and Ukrainian speculation. This is exactly what I’m saying, save for that one Lukashenko quote.

I’m not going to get into the weeds with you about the invasion, but I am going to call you out for sheisty implied quotes. Any reasonable and adequately uninformed person would read your “three day war” comment in response to a comment chain about putin and assume you were talking about putin. You deserve to get called out for that. It’s misleading and disingenuous.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Security analysis is not speculation. You are not here in good faith.

ArgentRaven ,

I didn’t even know Putin claimed he’d take Kyiv in 3 days until you said something and got all upset about it, brochacho. But now that you made us all look it up, I’m definitely repeating it to everyone, everywhere.

Can you tell me more things that make Putin look like a fool? Since that seems to be what your goal is.

Devorlon ,

I wouldn’t say the comment chain is talking about Putin, but someone aggrandising Putin.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

They’ve moved on from “Putin didn’t say that” to “it was just speculation” because this was never actually about Putin to them, it was about justifying Russia’s invasion.

catch22 ,

How would you be able to see with putins cock so far down your throat?

harrys_balzac ,

That’s very generous, thinking Putin would ever stick his dick in any of these tankies’ holes.

They’re all just useful idiots, not even worth a bag of onions.

Maggoty ,

That’s the problem. This is an old school war. If Russia can keep moving the front lines the correct direction them nothing else matters. I don’t say this because I like Russia but because it shows how much more support we need to be giving Ukraine. The manpower difference is something like 4 to 1. The casualty ratio is something like 3 to 1 which is high but within Russian standards. If nothing changes Russia will win this in another few years.

Crashumbc ,

There’s a lot of truth to that unfortunately. Historically, Russia has shown many times that any number of casualties is acceptable .

How far will they go before completely shaking apart? In meters?

Meters plural? Aren’t you optimistic.

They may not be that bad. 7 cylinder engines with 5 valves per engine. Front engine, camshaft at the trunk. Revolutionary
