If someone haven't saw yet, there is some interesting news from Belarus. Someone blew up Russian plane nearby to Minsk. There isn't just simple plane, it have radar which is able to detect activated air defence systems and and target it. There is just few such planes in service and each is worth $330m. It was done either by Ukrainian drones or Belarus partisans did it

Maybe it's not same level like sinking Moskva ship, but still impressive.
The Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Belarus claims that the A-50 aircraft was not injured as a result of the terrorist attack.

I have tested ChatGPT for a few weeks and can say the following. I think in the very near future, at least 50% (this is a conservative estimate, possibly 80%) of white-collar workers working in commercial structures will have problems finding employment.

Putin speech today was boring and waste of time, he again repeats old stuff.
You are right, and yet you watched it. But Zelensky's speeches are not particularly popular in Russia, I think no one watches them at all. And Biden's recent speech from Kyiv did not arouse any interest, except perhaps for the fact that the United States asked Russia for guarantees of his safety a few hours before the unannounced visit.

Now Russia is the actual guarantor of security in Europe, remember this. And even in Poland, Biden spoke from behind a bulletproof barrier because he is afraid and knows there is a new sheriff in the city. Grin

And wonderful Russia just announced that they are withdrawing from the START treaty.

Read: Iran is getting Russian nukes.
Iran, even without Russia's help, is close to enriching uranium to weapons-grade purity, and no one seems to be able to prevent this. Suspension of Russia's membership in the offensive strategic nuclear arms treaty is a kind of US invitation to resume full-scale nuclear testing, and the test site on Novaya Zemlya is ready for this. In general, Putin's speech today was surprisingly mild, many expected him to declare war or mass mobilization, but most of the time he spoke about socio-economic issues. As a curiosity, I can note Putin's proposal to put things in order with the holidays for the participants in the special operation, which means that this conflict can not be expected to end soon. I think this story will drag on for at least another year or two.

Your country managed to deal with the crisis in a way better than many of the analysts anticipated.
Hah, you can find "analysts" predicting all sorts of thing but you had to be very naive to believe those fearmongers "predicting" that EU would freeze to death.

Let's be frank, Europe was helped not by analysts' mistakes, but by this abnormally warm winter. There has never been a frost so far this winter.
Let's be frank, in all sincerity, do you really believe that Western European families were sitting at home or at work with winter coats in a cold environment and because of the warm winter, they managed to escape? Do you really believe that? Don't you want to just visit Europe for a while to see reality yourself?
I did not state or expect that Europe would freeze over this winter. It was immediately obvious that the authorities would not allow this and the energy-intensive industry would become a victim of the energy shortage, which actually happened.

And what did she achieve? Only the hatred of Ukrainians for Russia and everything Russian.
That is, when thousands of people every year walked through the streets of Kyiv in a torchlight procession in honor of the Nazi Bandera and chanted "Cut the Russians" in chorus, was this not yet hatred? Grin

On behalf of everyone in Europe German foreign minister declared war with Russia
https://youtu.be/ZriXLCgNLCU?t=87
Wars are not declared this way, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs is well aware of this. There are no fools in Europe to fight with Russia, because it could end very badly for Europe. Only the neo-Nazis of Ukraine have the suicidal courage to challenge Russia. It seems that Goebbels also said about them: “Bandera’s are insane maniacs, or, in other words, brutalized cattle. But it is precisely these that we need in this period of time in order to destroy the recalcitrant Slavs. And then they themselves must be destroyed, since animals have no place among people ".

Russia is doing a great service to Europe and the whole world by conducting an operation to denazify Ukraine.

So you still think it was Russia who defeated the German Reich?? You seem to be forgetting that most of WW II was actually fought in Ukraine and that millions of Ukrainians were the ones who actually fought, died and won the battles with the Nazi Germany only to be betrayed by Stalin.

Quote
Ukraine paid the biggest price for victory in the Second World War. As a vital contributor to the Red Army and a key provider of industrial resources in the USSR, Ukraine incurred the largest number of casualties during WWII. Russia has claimed the victory for itself and has officially denied the Ukrainian role in the fight against the Nazis.

The real number of victims during WWII is still not fully known. Some relevant data is still held in Russian archives and is not available for non-Russian researchers. However, of the 41.7 million people living in Ukrainian Soviet Republic before the war, only 27.4 million were alive in Ukraine in 1945. Official data says that at least 8 million Ukrainians lost their lives: 5.5 - 6 million civilians, and more than 2.5 million natives of Ukraine were killed at the front. The data varies between 8 to 14 million killed, however, only 6 million have been identified.

Remarkably, in December

Ask yourself, who liberated who from the real Nazis? Whose territory, cities, soldiers and civilians made YOU free to rant and spread disinformation? Another one here who has forgotten the price of freedom.
This is not about the Second World War, but about the outbreak of ultra-right nationalism in Ukraine already in the 21st century, when Bandera and the SS division of Galicia began to be honored in Ukraine as heroes, and the Nazi battalion Azov became part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The problem is that we often confuse learning systems/neural networks with artificial intelligence. These are completely different concepts and systems. And the goals are different.
ChatGPT can hardly be called an artificial intelligence or a "matrix" Smiley In fact, it is a huge repository of information that can find the right answers among trillions of blocks of information and formulate answers similar to human speech. A sort of Google search engine is a wrapped human-like interface for issuing search results.
Yes, neural networks and other technologies work here to collect and systematize primary information. But this system has no INTELLIGENCE.
I hope you have already seen this masterpiece: "The neural network was asked to draw a salmon swimming against the current. Well, she drew it."

In ChatGPT, the picture is much better, but the intelligence never appeared there. Since one of the areas I do is IT (development), and like everyone else I saw how ChatGPT "produces ready-made ideal code." I tried to set a task for him, something from the area "Write code so that when you click something, something opens somewhere." The system began to ask clarifying questions so that the problem statement was extremely accurately described in order to understand which "code from the knowledge base to take." If there is no clear statement of the problem, you will not receive any code. More precisely, if there is a place where there can be variability and you need to figure out the essence of the process yourself, ChatGPT will not help you. Therefore, if we talk about "replacement" - perhaps he will replace some of the "pioneers" of developers, who are essentially "translators" from human to programming language, not difficult tasks. Although I agree that as the system learns and the knowledge base accumulates, the level of "replacement" may rise
You do not seem to understand what ChatGPT is and confuse it with generative-adversarial neural networks for generating pictures, such as Midjourney or Stable Diffusion.

Oh, yes of course... it is a defeat for Europe if you say so, but ... Are these tanks going to fight Italy or France? Will they be killing Spanish or Greeks? I would say this is more like a clear indication that the RF diplomacy is pretty much at its lowest point ever. You cannot even convince one of your largest trading partners of not sending their best land weaponry against you. What a victory.
How are the progress with the expansion of NATO to the East? Burning a Koran a week until Erdogan agrees looks like a great idea. Grin

By the way, it seems that Germany has given green light to sending Leopard II to Ukraine. It's impressive capabilities include holding beers while moving in rough terrain. Can't beat that.
Are you seriously? Scholz resisted with all four paws so as not to transfer the Leopards to Ukraine, because this is very unprofitable for Germany, and Ukraine will not help anyway. Well, Europe has lost its right to strategic sovereignty over such matters and has once again been forced to succumb to US pressure.

The transfer of German tanks to Ukraine is not a victory for Ukraine, but a defeat for Germany. Now all European countries have a free hand to transfer their old Leopards to Ukraine, and in return they will buy not new Leopards, but American Abrams. Leopards will burn or get stuck in the impenetrable mud of Ukraine, the US will receive new orders, and Germany will receive nothing.

Did Moscow not have "air defense systems" until now? And the best they can do is lift a vehicle-based SAM on top of a building?
Moscow is one of the most protected cities in the world in terms of air defense. However, as the experience of Ukraine has shown, slow, cold and low-flying drones are a difficult target for air defense. Rumor has it that Ukraine also learned how to clone Iranian Shahid-136 drones, since it was not difficult. Automobile air defense systems on the roof of the Ministry of Defense - to protect against a possible massive attack by Ukrainian clones of the Iranian Shahid-136.

I still think that Ukraine committed a great stupidity by not making an unconditional surrender in March last year. Ukraine did not have, does not have and will not have a chance in confrontation with Russia. Any tactical success is simply an increase in the number of deadweight losses and an increase in the amount of debt to Western countries, for which future generations will have to pay.
You seem to be very confident about Russia abilities to continue war for many years with unlimited number of tanks, missiles human power and etc. And at the same time you understimate West. Things like Himars is cool, but in general, NATO countries gave to Ukraine things that they don't need themelves. Like tanks from soviet era, post WW2 howitzers. But they aren't getting things what would be real game changer like long range missiles for HIMARS, combat aircrafts and etc. There is so much noise about air defense systems or Leopard tanks because West still fear to ''escalate conflict. But Ukraine achieved a lot already with things that they have.
Yep, and I have repeatedly said that time works for Russia. And I don't underestimate the West. Not only is it unprofitable for the West to enter into direct confrontation with Russia, it is also unprofitable for the excessive escalation of the Ukrainian conflict. Because if it gets out of control, this fire could engulf the whole of Europe.

For me personally, it’s enough for now that this year in Kyiv, for the first time in many years, there was no traditional torchlight procession in honor of Bandera. It is still unreasonable for Russia to take Kyiv now - together with Kyiv, it will have to take all the huge debts of Ukraine, which it has managed to do since the beginning of the special operation.

That's a good excuse to wrap up the whole "special operation". We don't want Ukraine anymore, it's bombed to shit and in debt, let's go home. Can you pass this idea to Putin? Thanks.
I think Putin has taken a rather tough and principled position in the style of "all the goals of the special operation will be achieved in full."

As I understand it, a cauldron was formed there for at least 400 fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who heroically continue to resist without much chance of success after losing control over the dominant height. Good job Wagner.
After long months of negative success and some glorious retreats, Russia finally achieved something... Do you still dream about taking Kyiv?

Remember back a few weeks into the war when you thought Russia was going to take Kiev and throw a parade by the end of last Spring?

In Kyiv on May 9 2022, a traditional parade will be held in honor of the victory of the USSR over Nazi Germany. It is naive and foolish to doubt it.

Imagine what you would've said then, how naive and foolish you'd think of someone that told you that Ukraine would retake more than half of the land Russia occupied, force Putin to draft civilians to fight, the Moskva would be sunk, the bridge to Crimea bombed, and almost a year later Ukraine would still be fighting.

Just classic. ''Nazis'' in Ukraine is terrible thing, but everything is ok when criminals like serial killers, pedophilles, rapers and etc is fighting on your side. Many of time had lifteime sentences. Lifes of these peoples don't have big value in Russia, but I just remind that if they will be lucky enough to comeback alive from Ukraine, they won't get back in prisons and I'm just wondering how they will integrate in your society.
You better worry about your future. Russia has stood and will stand, but as for the prospects for Ukrainian statehood, I am less sure that it will be possible to preserve it at least in some form.
