I see someone hasn't changed one bit and you are still as overly aggressive as ever.

Clearly something was done to it so it wasn't pure water it might not have even been water though that was how it was described as dry water. It looked like water, was clear and a liquid, acted like water but when a book was dipped in and taken it was dry. It was a distinctive demonstration that I remember form 20 years ago they submerged a book, a laptop, and a flat panel TV all got dipped in and did not get wet or stop working. The Laptop was powered up at the time. basically a dry liquid that looks and acts like water. EDIT: It was a designed to put out fires in museums and libraries so as not to damage books e.c.t The point I was trying to get across before your typical attitude problem, is that not all liquids are wet.

The misinformation Twitter algorithm. Does it mark it down regardless of source or non RUS sources only. The former it can be argued it affects Russia as much if not more so than Western sources. If the latter then it really does question it’s neutrality.

That's a lie parroted by pro Russians and pro Muskers

There is a reason why Musk was forced out of SpaceX's operations - he's a total jerk wod and both his employees were quiting and investors were pulling out. So now he spends his time trying run Twitter into the ground and censor anyone who disagrees with his narrative

What is his narrative and which employees quit and which investors were pulling out? SpaceX is a huge success with him being founder, owner, CEO and Chief Engineer LOL
 
You can't doubt the man has some accomplishments (really more than most people would ever achieve) but it's basically an open secret at this point that he doesn't really treat his employees with much in the way of kindness.

Perhaps it's one of the reasons he's been so successful, because he expects everyone to work as hard as he does.

Still doesn't really excuse his behaviour so he has to live with the consequences of his actions and what he says.

An explosion in a cafe in St Petersburg has killed a Russian military blogger - Vladlen Tatarsky - who reported from the Ukraine frontline, Russian media report.

At least 15 people were injured in the Street Bar Cafe explosion, reports say.

Going to be interesting to see how the Russians respond to this.

I agree the man is definitely a go getter but he is an utter prannock as well. and whilst I can accept he maybe does work his hind off, that is kind of par for the course when it is your company. it is one thing to put in absurd shifts when you are the one who gets the bonus at the end. my dad did that when he started his building business. in summer he was out at 6am and back gone 9pm .. it was terrible as a father of a young kid tho.... but to expect that of staff who are salaried and possibly not that well salaried at that is totally unreasonable and i hope he gets sued for poorly treating his staff. unfortunately it's America so I doubt it. it's the one area which seems totally fine to treat yours staff like slaves.

I mean it sucks for the innocent bystanders but unfortunately it's gonna happen when your countrymen are committing countless crimes against the country next door, and with significant numbers of people from the Ukraine or sympathise with the Ukraine living in Russia

I don't really like the collateral damage, but it's not as if that's ever stopped Russia from bombing civilians.

"He was a guest speaker at an event hosted by the cafe when the bomb went off."

Gotta wonder what sort of collateral damage wer're talking about here though.

Bomb that killed prominent Nazis also killed some irrelevant nazi sympathizers too... like, cry me a river.

Perhaps sad for any cafe staff/workers or journalists caught up in it rather than those who attended as fans/followers of the pro-Z war blogger.

Not in a position to say if the injured people deserved it or not, I don't know who any of them were etc. Blowing people up is rarely going to be possible without some collateral damage.

Though the guy who died was definitely deserving of their fate after what he was caught saying on camera, definition of **** around and find out.
 
I've mentioned before that one of my old college buddies/friends is a Russian who now works in the UK military sector (not a spy), well I met up with him for lunch today and because he's still in touch with friends/family over there he had a couple of interesting insights.

Basically despite what our media may be saying about the success of western sanctions/boycotts not much is really different over there, the public know they're at war (regardless of what their government says) but it's not really seen as a massive thing, similar to how America was during the Iraq invasion. I found this quite strange considering how many guys they've lost and the pull out of so many western companies, but he pointed out the death toll hasn't even hit 0.1% yet and that's the real death toll not the Kremlin's propaganda one so people aren't bothered by it yet. As for the pull out of western companies, most of them were selling things that only the rich could afford (rich in Russia being anyone who can afford a car <15 years old apparently). Losing McDonalds was a blow to the poor at first but apparently the state owned McDonaldski (not it's real name obvs) is making the exact same food and charging less so nobody cares about this either.

Obviously I was still a bit awestruck/amazed that everyday Russians coudl be so unaffected by everything that's happened. So he sent me a YouTube link to see what Russian Streamers/Youtubers are up to right now:


Which pretty much sums up what's happening in Russia right now I guess xD

No one said they did, likewise, if you tried to blow up Hitler at one of his speeches you'd perhaps get some collateral damage from the Nazi supporters/members gathered to hear him speak... again, cry me a river. It's not that civilians deserved to be killed simply for attending an event in support of someone but rather it's not a great loss if nazis like that are killed.

But sure, as already stated, you may also get workers who were there because they worked at the venue or indeed were reporting on the event.

Anyway here is the guy being presented a statuette, supposedly this contained explosives:
