I agree with Ukraine, but only when it comes to the first two or so years of the war, by now most of those that didn’t respect those rules (I’m talking both sides) are either dead or missing some limbs. With that told, just recently the Russian MOD has started applying heavy penalties to its soldiers close to the frontlines who were still using Telegram and/or the Ukrainian mobile network (?!), so it looks like there are still some behaviors left to correct.

- alphawhisky 7mo agoIt's not a "cold, damp hole", it's called my basement, and there's also Dr. Pepper.
- ErroneousBosh 7mo agoHow many Russian deserters does it take to change a basement lightbuld? I don't know either, must be more than 24 though because it's still dark as shit down there.
- losvedir 7mo agoIn my day, playing video games and watching anime didn't imply a network connection.
- Wololooo 7mo agoBoy, do I have news for you! But joking apart, almost everything is connected and calling home these days...
- raw_anon_1111 7mo agoLAN parties were popular in the late 90s
- mikkupikku 7mo agoNormies used to deal in binders full of pirated music and movies. Then for a time they got into portable hard drives, but gradually this culture of media ownership was lost to the streaming services. Now your average normie doesn't know what a file is, wouldn't know where to put or what to do with a media file and only thinks of "apps".
- matusp 7mo agoAnother interesting development is the ridiculous amount of background bluring in photos. Turns out you can find surprisingly large number of garages, warehouses, treelines, etc based on a single photo.
- lazide 7mo agoGeoguessr stuff can be mind blowing. Being able to identify down to the county from some random sky and corner of a power pole type stuff
- XorNot 7mo agoThe Russians are having problems with Telegram because their own military comms don't work. Russian units have requested fire support via telegram.
