Well I'm happy Finland will be joining, since we need countries with a backbone on the frontier of NATO and Russia, and not ones that self impose restrictions on the intelligence activities of the alliance.

We have clearly seen there is nothing to gain by milquetoast attempts not to "provoke" Russia.

>Unlike Norway, which has self-imposed restraint on NATO activity near its border with Russia, Finland is now opening its skies for US intelligence flights along the eastern frontier.

I always thought Norway was a strong NATO ally, what is this Putin appeasement shit?

Ass fur is so hot right now.

The supply chain on normal industrial products is nuts right now. I imagine bespoke equipment is the same or worse. I'd be surprised if it even opens in 5 years regardless of budget.

So I got a few questions. kVA is not real power, so depending on your PF it might not be consuming much. But the real question I have is about the plant capacity. 250 kVA is peanuts, the transformer at a small pump station I visited today was twice that. How does that work economically? I assume it is mostly unmanned cause it would barely generate enough revenue to cover the cost of an employee and maintenance.

Yeah, it's a hard video to watch. But glad you did. We need to see this and have a conversation about how police are protected from their crimes.

The gunman's dad was a police sergeant. He had prior complaints of excessive force. He is a POS murderer and the department protected him.

After the trail they hired him for less than 2 months only to discharge him for "PTSD" and now are paying his pension due to disability. The officer was 26 when this happened and will get that money for life. No jail, no consequences, just $2500 a month.

I was blown away that it wasn't a bigger story nationally. I only found out on Reddit. Even the news of this settlement is only being covered locally.

I don't care if he is alive or not. What is terrible is that he is a free man getting a pension. He should be behind bars.

I think everyone should watch it. It's important to have those feelings and come to grips with the evil officers police departments hire and protect. Watching the video is so much more impactful than just hearing about it.
