Now he claims Ukraine doing it in an attempt to smear a country under severe distress.

It was instantly debunked by security professionals, rather claiming USA, Vietnam, Brazil first and foremost which also sounds like a more probable trio than a state sponsored attack from a country desperate to regain American support.

It was indeed probably rather a group; Dark Storm Team has already claimed responsibility.

Yeah, Ukrainians just have nothing to do except DDOS twitter.

Ah, maybe caused Russia haven't fired ~200 drones and missiles today? Now it make sense

Rejecting theories by labeling them "propaganda" with out any justification is not really helping here.

Russia/USSR been pretty hostile to nations who don't want to join their peaceful and strong brotherhood. Hey they even invaded other communist nations just cause they decide to keep some independence.

If those "unfaithful" countries join NATO this creates problems for Russia to force them to give up their freedom.

And USSR/Russia started a fuss that NATO is a threat for them.

It makes the US oligarchs comparatively stronger within the US though, with foreign backing diminished, which is probably the main objective of this circus.

How so? Isn't is way better when other countries heavily investing in your economy?

But if the EU has no 5th gen fighters then they'd have a hard time maintaining Air Superiority against Russia if they manage to mass produce Su-57 or Su-75 and I am betting the Russian can do it before EU can have 5th gen fighters or FCAS.

Russia already lost Su-57 in Ukraine when ukrainians didn't even had F-16.

For context: Baku to Grozny is 500 km along the coast. Grozny to Aktau is 450 km over the Caspian Sea.

That the crippled plane was diverted to Aktau in the hope it would vanish into the sea weighs heavy in the article. I wonder what the real story is. Because I can't think that this plan was on the operator's mind. I also know I'm too naive sometimes.

On top of it - russia simply f*cking in a multiple possible ways. Its just a disaster on top of disasters.

they could simply ALLOW to land airplane on they land and hide what happen (similar to what they did with CEO of Total airplane or Polish presedent "accidents").

Plus this might save everyone on the plane, case it might had enough brake fluids and other liquids to make a safe landing.

But no their decided to sink it in the sea to hide any possible proofs.

Just saw video of the shooting on X, the guy was cool as a cucumber. Racking a new round after every shot. Not a hint of desperation, fear or anxiety. He didn't even run off after shooting. https://x.com/Tr00peRR/status/1864376034465890417

Why did he reload every shot? Is it self made pistol? My best guess that insurance haven't paid his enough to buy glock17

Could you elaborate your points? I'm particularly interested in "Matrix isn't really decentralized" and on which XMPP client you're using on Linux.

Thanks!

and you believe so, cause now you can go on twitter and freely spread disinformation which approved by Elon otherwise you'll be ban as before.

Am I getting your defenition of freedom correctly or did I miss something?

The future of warfare is misinformation. Apparently it’s working.

Watching closely Ukrainian - Russia war I can see @lettergram has a point. Cheap commercial drone with granade showing just astonishing funds/effectiveness ratio. Think about firing $150 000 rocket (javelin) or $1 000 drone. Plus drone does not require any special military training and you can manuver during the fly and choose angle of attack.
