Yes, but now their propaganda machine can say that they want to stop the war.

That’s what you get for liking hibiscus.
Ir was always cringe, but we did it anyway.
You can’t really destroy an insurgency via military means. See: Iraq, Afghanistan.
The cutout looks like Saddam Hussein.
Yep, in their mind Russia is great and is the future. Meanwhile, countries west of them are decadent and temporary.
To play the devil’s advocate, Poland and the Baltic states received a lot of third country refugees (from Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Sudan, etc.) from Russia and Belarus before the war in Ukraine.
It was a hybrid warfare campaign where Russians would advertise how easy it is to cross the border and how good life is on the other side. They would also help them get to the border.
Those refugees quickly overran Baltic refugee centers and caused political instability.
To be honest, “If it’s not giving me what I wanted out of this transaction, then it’s bad.” is a heuristic that works well for most things we buy. If I buy candy and it doesn’t taste good, it’s bad. If I buy a car and it breaks down, it’s bad.
I think the real problem is that some people see games as a product and others see it as an art piece. Some games fail at being either, some succeed at both.
Well, my wife still needs to get to work whilst it is getting fixed and the repairs are going to take months. If we choose to repair the car we will not be able to buy a new one so it’s a bit of a Catch-22.
Even if the car was fine, we would be still selling it. She had trouble with parking a car as big as a CX-5, and that car burns a bit too much diesel for her 70 km a day commute.
We are most likely to buy a car that’s at least 10 years old, we can’t afford any better. Probably we will be buying Toyota Auris for about 6K.
Most of Eastern European politics can be boiled down to “Pro-western elitists vs. pro-russian populists”
Meanwhile, Vilnius-Lublin portal is working with no incidents.
The first quote I got for the car was 1200 euros.
The engine repair guy said the repair would cost at least 3000, but the parts are hard to come by and it might take months just to get them. Getting them from the manufacturer would quickly inflate the price. And even if we replace all those parts, it would still prolong car’s life for 3-5 years.
Yes, but it would be as expensive as the car. It is also technically possible to replace a bunch of parts in order to fix it, but they are hard to get and expensive to get from the manufacturer.
Yes, it is something very similar to that.
Might be, might be. Or WellThatSucks if we have one.
The engine doesn’t supply the oil to some of it’s parts properly, so parts like the turbo compressor went bad.
The car is too old for that.
Yes. But to see the defect, one has to remove the underside of the engine which we didn’t do.
Ah, yes , the XTV, just like porn, but the one getting fucked is you!
Ah yes Russia, please antagonise the country with one of the highest artillery shell stockpiles and production capacities in the world, what bad thing could result from that?
