This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

IIRC, you were one of the posters who denied it would happen.

You can tell this poor bastard knows he's already a walking corpse:

But never fear, another generation of cannon fodder is right behind!

Those KIA numbers are low because they don't reflect:

 
BS- bet they are trying to sneak out the military with the civilians.



They underestimated that ol' Biden NATO Magic
😉
That’s incredible. Listening to that correspondent you’d think Ukraine invaded Russia and Russia was the noble defender.

The other noticeable thing was the disappointment on their faces. They know Russia has been exposed as a worthless, toothless, shithole country and without nukes would have little influence on the world stage.

That part was great. However, the perverse claim that it is common practice for Ukraine to blow up civilian centers such as those in Mariupol when Russia itself carried out those war crimes, was a bit much. They all know it's bullshit, but I'm not sure their Russian viewers do.

Oh, for sure. A lot of that was pure propaganda and projection.
 
Love the reactions of the hosts as the guest describes the unfolding disaster.

It’s all projection from Russia. Town being destroyed by artillery, Ukraine. People being tortured and murdered, Ukraine. When he says they are worried about chemical weapons I would be worried if I was UA. They will use them and blame Ukraine.
 
Throw in security measures, maintenance and the service they're providing...in an active war zone

What "security measures", outside of what is standard encryption methods?

What "maintenance"? He's not sending repair crews to either Ukraine, or "into space"; he has a fixed cost, which is "launching satellites".

$4k sounds an awful lot like "extortion" vs the normal $60/month subscription costs (and the modems being sent ARE being paid for)

I think the main security measures include continued adaptation to evade Russian jamming efforts, and updating real-time geo fencing along the changing frontlines.
 
It hasn’t happened yet.
It's literally happening NOW

GOP Minority Leader is giving you the "heads up". Will that alter your votes? I doubt it, because you'll deny it now, and you'll deny having voted for them when they do it.

It'll be just like the Roe decision: "We didn't know they'd ACTUALLY DO THAT!!! 👀 They just TOLD US they would!"

They use beam-forming tech to their "modems". There really isn't much "jamming" the Russians can do.

I would not suspect these measures are significantly above normal ops for that tech.

I think Musk has a point here, but going to Twitter to cry about is is not the appropriate, or professional response. If Musk had some friends in Congress he could start putting pressure on them to help offset the costs SpaceX is incurring. If that doesn't work, there are other ways of getting the word out without sounding like a petulant child. Most people would support proper funding if he just wasn't such a bitch about it.

Right?

There are things called "contracts" you apply for. That's how those other entities have $$ coming in.
