Trump to truth a happy birthday?
Russian invasion of Ukraine | Fewer tweets, more discussion
- Thread starter Wednesday at Stoke
- Start date
This is crazy, almost unbelievable I’d say. I hope to god it’s accurate. I wonder if they have more tanks now than at the start of the war. That would really be something given Russia has lost so many.
And people who have umbrellas
Any pithy tweets from Musk on this development?
You’d only hope it was designed to stop them working if they fell into the hands of the enemy.
Do you think he dared to eat any of his cake though?
Elon is a bellend but he’s nothing to do with it, Starlink was disabled in occupied territories and as Ukrainians started to advance really quickly it didn’t adjust to the events on the battlefield.
Both are playing on a misinterpretation of the purpose of intelligence. Its not meant to be a crystal ball for politicians. Rather its meant to inform of present conditions on the ground so policy makers can make choices based on near real time events.
True. And I don't think that CIA (or any other organization) is monolithic, as in "CIA says this". They have multiple analysts who don't always agree. I am sure that they present a more complicated analysis to the politicians than these tweets imply.

In addition to Elon, I've seen a lot of other tech bros expressing concerns about the war and essentially advocating for appeasement because they, like Elon, thought about the issue for five minutes and now have some very valuable Thoughts™. Silicon Valley is basically Mos Eisley. Just full of the worst human beings (well, outside of actual war criminals, etc.), and it's only getting worse.
Silicon Valley is essentially a regional cult hub where people get given millions in venture capital to cos-play as steve jobs. The level of narcissism becoming so high that they not only believe they are deities but have the ability to put their deity "intellect" to any problem. The likes of Musk and tech-bro's actually having a policy say over geo-politics would've seen us in a nuclear exchange long ago.
Uh oh...
Seems a fuel car is on fire for unknown reasons.
Yeah, they need to keep their collective narcissistic personality disorder within the confines of Silicon Valley and stop spreading it elsewhere.. They're almost all some Ayn Rand John Galt weirdos who believe that their "expertise" in their field translates to every other field. With crypto, NFTs, and the metaverse crap, Silicon Valley is now like 90% scams instead of creating anything productive.
Whether this was intentional by the Ukrainians or some sheer dumb luck, it's very good news.

Has anyone seen any videos to confirm if it was a missile strike or a bomb? Or something else?

Can’t tell but it looks like the lorry was the bomb and blew up as the train was going past

Looks like the bridge has collapsed in two different places, this could indicate multiple detonations
Wow what a great news to wake up to. Happy birthday Putin.
Wouldn't a drone with a bomb on it be the easiest way to accomplish this?
It would take a massive drone to be able to carry the payload required to take out a bridge.
Depends who is blowing it up
Even those massive drones? I suppose those aren't for remote detonation, I can't say I'm very familiar with explosive weights.
Parts of that bridge don't look usable anymore.
