why people in india speak english? maybe they have to be part of UK because of that?

how crimea could vote to be a part of russia if there were russian troops in crimea and they controlled this "voting"? how they could vote if there is no law in ukraine or russia for this?in order to be a legit voting there has to be a legal procedure, and there wasn't any. With same success I can print a paper with words and give it to you to vote

today I was watching dreaming spanish video and saw this frame

dreaming spanish - it is comprehensible materials for spanish learners made by spanish native speakers, but what is funny here is that in this frame there is globe with labels in ukranian ) південна америка

I don't, but in terms of work or browsing I'm fine ) I have router powerbank for ~ 16 hours and notebook plus big powerbank, so around 16-20 hours I can spend time with notebook without supply. plus light bulbs with builtin powerbank. but little bit worried about heating system. today it is off all day and now is like 19С in my flat. It's tolerable for now, but I don't know about tomorrow.

yes, gasoline generator is the best option. will see

after russian night attack on Kyiv there is still no electricity, and now is 6pm

The Kupiansk story continues, putin has captured it for the fifth time!

Do I need to switch to Fulcrum from electrs?

Regarding elections in Ukraine that Trump wants, my 5 cents. Fact number one - Trump is not respected person in Ukraine, to put it mildly. Fact number two - ukrainians don't want elections now, one million reasons, don't want to explain long now. So. for ukrainians this elections will look like - Trump wants us to get rid of Zelensky. Guess for yourself what the result will be

история с Купянском это конечно смешно )

During the recent"negotiations" Putin claimed Russia had full control of Kupiansk. Now... 😂

Interesting thing is I'm told a big part of this successful offensive was unmanned _ground_ robots. It's not just airborne drones anymore.

sure, Наземні Роботизовані Комплекси (НРК), Ground-based robotic systems are important area in ZSU, I've heard about them a lot. they do logistic where is it too risky to use people. evacuate wounded and so on.

regarding Zelensky in Kupyansk, I'm personally a little bit skeptical about such moves, because everyone who want to know the real picture already doing that, everyone else are morons and it is impossible to change their mind with any logic. so there is no really audience for such things

«Two villains, one goal»

"The Russian Kh-101 cruise missile contains components manufactured by companies from the United States, China, Taiwan, Germany, the Netherlands, and other countries," the Ukrainian Air Force emphasized."

Really interesting stats from Ukraine's Unmanned System Forces (aka drones).

The big one: the marginal cost to kill or seriously injure a Russian with drones is just $911 USD.

I've personally spoken to quite a few soldiers at different units (units have fundraising and recruiting booths at basically every big event in Ukraine), and they all say the same thing: a remarkably high percentage of their drone funding comes from private donations. A big problem is Western military aid tends to be tied to specific weapons systems – not money – so the overall resources can't be spent optimally.

Of course, it's not like the war itself costs $911/Russian casualty – there's lots of other costs and investment necessary to get there. But the fact that units are still short on drones even though relatively little investment would fix this is absurd.

Also, I don't keep track. But I wouldn't be surprised if just my personal donations – anonymously with Bitcoin – have resulted in the deaths of a few Russians. You can easily make a difference.

crazy stats actually. 2% of personnel doing 30% damage

there is a question mark. question mark means it is a question and not a suggestion. question mark also means I'm not sure and want to hear arguments.

what is strange for me is that when it comes to domestic level criminality people are able to think clearly. like - if there are criminals in your city doing killing what do you want? you want them caught or killed. simple. you don't want to send tucker carlson to hear his reasons because "freedom of speech". or you don't say you know it is because central banks funding war between criminal and police. but when it comes international level you suddenly start listening to a ton of abstract, muddled bullshit about how not all russians are bad and blackrock and izrael and bla bla bla, when things are deadly simple.

why can't trump stop the war if the original reason was us backing?

Wasn’t a coup, it was a fight for Independence after the Jewish Bolsheviks overthrew the Russian Empire in 1917.

US didn’t get in the Coup business until 1947.

“Best Estimate (Based on Known Evidence):

• Over 80 attempted or successful regime change operations according to historian Lindsey O’Rourke, whose work draws from declassified U.S. documents and academic research.

• Of these, at least 20–30 are widely considered to be successful coups that replaced governments, often in favor of U.S.-aligned or anti-communist regimes.

Well-Documented U.S.-Backed Coups Include:

1. Iran (1953) – CIA and British MI6 overthrew Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh.

2. Guatemala (1954) – CIA ousted President Jacobo Árbenz.

3. Congo (1960–1961) – U.S. helped remove and facilitate the murder of Patrice Lumumba.

4. Brazil (1964) – U.S. supported a military coup against President João Goulart.

5. Chile (1973) – U.S. supported the military coup that overthrew Salvador Allende, bringing Pinochet to power.

6. Indonesia (1965–66) – U.S. supported the military’s purge of communists and suspected sympathizers, leading to Suharto’s rise.

7. Honduras (2009) – Though officially denied, the U.S. gave tacit support to the coup against President Manuel Zelaya.

Other Notable Interventions That Shaped or Supported Coups:

• Vietnam (1963) – U.S. involvement in the overthrow and assassination of President Diem.

• Libya (2011) – Not a coup in the classic sense, but U.S./NATO involvement contributed to the collapse of Gaddafi’s regime.

• Venezuela (2002) – U.S. was aware of and sympathetic to the coup against Hugo Chávez, though did not directly orchestrate it.”

I'm not ready to talk about topics other that Ukraine, because I don't have enough knowledge. By your phrase and context I understood that you think that maidan was us-backed coup. I don't think so.
