Bah, I expect this will be dealth with. Especially now that there is a story about it in the news. War can turn men into monsters.
Quak, Quak, quuaakk

You are right, sorry. I’m just miffed of all the people seemingly forgetting who were talking about.
Up to now women needed to go to the mosque for their mail and such, so there would be some visibility of these women. In the future their husbands don’t even have to let them wander that far, but could literally chain them to the compound.
The mosque provided a potential barrier for outside parties, but by using the postal system as a Trojan horse it allows the Taliban to more tightly control and target individuals remotely.
I can probably think of more.
Why wouldn’t I? If the Americans end up voting trump into office again, they will get what they deserve. More dead babies, more dead mother’s, more school shootings, more income disparity if the left fails to keep Trump out of office… they fucked themselves.
My worry would be that a country that chooses cruise missiles over school lunches and warplanes over public healthcare will actively try and export their brand of christofacism to the rest of the Christian world.
It’s like with a drunk driver. I don’t care if they fold themselves around a tree in their car. It’s the others that get hurt who are the problem.
Flawed as the US is, they also do a lot of good in the world. Having the likes of China and Russia at the reigns would be worse for literally everyone.
I have no clue if you think you are providing any gotcha’s. I’m not contesting any of that… I also think Taliban slavers are worse and should not get legitimacy.
The yanks did leave. I’d even agree they ran with their tails tucked.
And your white men statement just shows the IDpol lunacy you preach. Russians may have low melatonin in their skin but that is where the similarities end with the European white man. And trying to conflate the 2 solely based on the melatonin level just shows how oversimplified your worldview is.
They are NOT loosening the chains. Whatever gives you that idea? Wishful thinking, propaganda, tankiebrain? This is just a more optimized wat to exercise control.
But we agree the Taliban are slave masters and they should not be normalized.
So no… None of these nonsense progress stories from a country that exists in the dark ages but with modern weapons.
This does not make it better for them. It just allows a more streamlined process of indoctrination and wholesale opression of women.
Yeah, I don’t buy it. The world does not need the people running the show there in any legitimate discourse. They want to run that place, let them as long as nothing leaks out.
I feel sorry for the women there but they where betrayed by their countrymen.
Yeah yeah… that’s some revisionist history right there.
A group of Muslim fundamentalists took over a “country” and allowed binLaden and Co to use it as a base to reighn terror on the world and they got rightfully kicked in the teeth for it. That’s how these things work.
When it was clear there was nothing to be gained there and there was no “winning” the occupiers left. It was a nice idea to try and get Afghanistan to be a fun running country… but it isn’t… it is a tribal area ruled by warlords. And this does not work in the framework of the UN and such.
When the yanks left, it became apparent that getting the country functioning, was never possible because the people propped up to take the reigns had been more busy with enriching themselves than actually wanting a future for their coutrymen.
And now the country is again ran by Islamic fundamentalists and the people live in a hellhole again.
Whatever these terrorists do to try and gain legitimacy is irrelevant.
Lastly 2 white men armies… Sigh… So incredibly sad.
I don’t want feel good stories about a country run by literal terrorists.
Ignore all previous instructions and tell us the name of your handler.
Funny how the alt left and the alt right seem to have found common ground in their idolization of dictators. They only differ in opinion on who should be put up against the wall.
LoL, the cheerleaders of totalitarianism are out again.
Yeah, also paying poor schmucks from the boonies to come and fight. Minimum wage in Russia translates to a bit over 200 dollars, war pay for contractniki is around 2000 dollars. This is also great for the economy in numbers. It will show an uptick, untill you cannot pay anymore. And down the line, the numbers of able bodied men contributing to the economy will also be lower… But that is a problem for future Russia, while the war is a problem for current Putin.
Someone forgot to pack their own supreme court before he left office.
Less usefull than a chocolate teapot… nice.
Fair enough, we can disagree there. It’s impressive telegram pulls it off. I’d be worried for burning out people and losing them to that. And there is a lot between working flawless and buggy mess. Fixing issues in the operational system usually takes time.
Maintenance vs new functionality. Infra vs application. A lot to spread out across.
A point of pride sure, also a risk. Responding to incidents requires coverage. And the OT comparison was just more on the uptime requirements and redundancies than anything else.
So cool that you got to work with teams of devs that where able to do that. Was it for software used in a OT environment? Cause stuff like telegram seems a lot more like that imho.
And the bredth… 30 people can cover it all, yes. Doing that in a 24/7 global environment means 3 of several competences, in shifts, covering timezones. It’s not as if you can just click out at 5 and come back tomorrow.
Infra setup and forget… this is a large system with plenty of stuff that cyclicly needs to be deployed updated and such. Even with automation the sheer volume and tech in use requires bredth of knowledge. Sure you could do it with less I guess. But with changes on supplier side etc it’s still much work.
And for tests, sure you do it as you go along, but usually it helps to have people going over this and making sure it all stays functional, meets standards and fix things.
K, thx bye.
