The thing in the picture is no-longer a tank, it doesn't have a working turret or cannon, so it's more an APV.
It's probably based on the T62 which has way insufficient armor for modern warfare, so I doubt things looking like the picture will be a major new problem for Ukraine.

On the contrary it seems to me to show desperation by the Russians, that they are trying to find use for 50-60 year old equipment.
It still takes a lot of effort to get that old crap to even drive, and they wouldn't do it except they are out of options.

IMO one of the absolute worst things about China is the threat they choose to be to Taiwan.
I would really like for China to soften up on Taiwan, and it would make a huge difference in my opinion of China.

Seems to me China too would benefit if both China and Taiwan became members.

Pelosi should be investigated for why she blocked several impeachments of Trump.

That means that roughly 42 million Americans will not receive critical food assistance

42 Million!! WTF!!
That's about 15% of the population on food stamps!
I wonder how many of them have actual full time jobs, but aren't paid a living wage?
Jesus Christ USA is a shithole country.

The point is to complain that it's edited, and the repubtards will accept that as evidence that the message is "manipulated" even when it isn't. It also divert the debate away from what he was actually saying, to a debate of manipulating the message is wrong.

Republicans do this shit ALL the time, and it works because there are too many stupid Americans.

The Russians are definitely losing steam on the front, and I bet just about everything sucks in Russia by now.

It is getting cold in Russia, and everything else is getting worse for them too: Declining wages, increasing prices, gas shortages, failing infrastructure, and now Russia is even seeing unemployment despite the previously overheated economy because of the war.
Many Russians aren't being paid even if they have what should be solid work, oil companies and many factories are withholding pay for 3 months now, and some even longer, Russia is running dry, and needless to say the banks that Putin has called on to help finance everything, are on the verge of bankruptcy too. There simply are no more holes in the belt to tighten it any further to save money as we say here, and there are no more options to find financing.

The Russian money reserves Putin had saved up for this are empty, and Russia can no-longer afford to maintain the prewar economic level, as the economy is slowing down resulting in lower taxes, and the income from oil is failing too now.

As I've mention before, I doubt Putin will survive this winter, because it is already clear that Russia can't win this war, and during the winter it will become ever more clear for all Russians to see too, as shortages will get worse.

I'll explain further, because you are apparently a bit slow:
The Russians are the aggressors and in this case got what they deserve as the aggressors.
Ukrainians are innocent and just defending themselves against aggression, so when they are killed it is an injustice.
So when you made that comparison, you made a false equivalence.

The purpose of the video is to show that Ukraine is successfully defending themselves against Russia despite daily war-crimes committed by Russia against Ukraine.

Slava Ukraine

I simply don't get this? They can put an entire screen on the back, but we can't have a fucking message LED!? 🤡 😡

I have no idea. But it works in Proton, so I'm guessing it's not a problem with my system?

Wow hundreds! I guess the people has spoken then. 🤣

FDM warns of errors in several models from Tesla, and FDM has now been successful by the Danish Road Safety Authority.

The Danish Road Safety Authority has stated that the motorists' interest organization, FDM, rightly did not approve two Tesla Model 3 by sight after the car owners had independently complained about the demand for omsyn.

FDM said in a statement.

In both cases, the sight results were due to "too much veil in bushings in rear-wheel suspension".

However, Tesla found no faults and thought the electric cars should have been approved, which led to complaints and the Traffic Agency's review. Many Teslas have "veil in the bushing"

The agency concludes that the cars had a significant veil and that the vision had been carried out correctly in both cases.

Earlier in the year, the FDM warned that there are many Teslas that have veils in bushings in the rear-wheel suspension and in the steering column. See also FDM comes with call for Tesla owners

Veils in rear suspensions mean that there is a looseness or abnormal movement in the parts that connect the car's rear wheel to the car itself.

This applies to both the Model 3 and Model Y. According to FDM, around 37,000 Model 3 and more than 40,000 Model Y have been registered in Denmark. The error is seen on newer cars

Usually you first see the problem on older cars, which have driven many kilometers, but FDM has seen several models with the error early in the life expectancy of the cars.

It creates doubts about the safety of cars, writes FDM, who has contacted Tesla to get the company to solve the problems. See also Tesla gets fined for flawed marketing

"We expect Tesla to help drivers, as it is not fair that the consumer has an additional cost of repair and possibly overhaul, because the car has a fault it shouldn't have," said Lone Otto, area manager in FDM's technical advice.

At the beginning of the year, FDM said that almost one in four Model 3 from the year 2020, which last year was for inspection, failed - among other things because of veils.

For other electric cars, the dump percentage was nine.

The main motorist interest group in Denmark strongly suggest people who own a Tesla model 3 or model Y have their cars safety checked before warranty expires.

Loosely translated:
Among the problems are play in the steering wheel, and bad suspension.

These problems are normally only seen on way older cars with heavy mileage. These problems are worrying because these parts impact the safety of the car.

Tesla however is claiming if the play is within the limits of the service manual, they will not have an impact on safety. "We design our vehicles so they exceed safety regulations." literal translation!
/translation summary

Lately newer cars from Tesla have failed 25-30% legally mandatory inspections, and Tesla is spewing bullshit about it!
It's not up to Tesla to decide safety standards. and failing to such high degrees right after warranty, is definitely not exceeding safety standards!

I'm stressing the European parts, because my post from yesterday about Russian losses in Ukraine war was removed as "off topic".

"There are no longer any restrictions on the range of weapons delivered to Ukraine, neither by the UK, France, nor us. There are no restrictions by the US either,"
