    When you look at many cases, nations that fell under the British Empire achieved a level of success that while not nessecarily great is definitely above their peers. Let's look at Kenya or Botswana or Malaysia, compared to the other states which were former colonies.

    Except for recent problems, the African nation with the greatest success was the one never colonized- Ethiopia.

    I don't buy the idea that colonization increased success for the colonized. It just made their lives and cultures appear more familiar to western eyes and more centralized.

    And that can be good, but not when no one is consenting to it

    Western doctrine did the trick in Ukraine. Pretty impressive.

    Sounds like there are en masse surrenders now. Surely it's going to end soon.

    Was sobering to read US military intel folks cautioning about Russia lashing out on civilians and infrastructure, as that is what they did in Syria when their back gets against the wall. Could get ugly if they can't win conventionally.

    Neat fact, in Mass Effect 2 if you send a probe to Uranus EDI goes “probing Uranus…..really, Shepard?”

    speaking of, you should watch idiot abroad. Can be pretty funny. Ricky Gervais found this awkward and kind of funny guy, and they send him random places where he stays in a dump, has no help and tries to figure stuff out. He never knows where hes being sent until on the way.

    So I got my son a car today, I cannot believe the prices. A Honda Civic, a few years old and 80k miles is 20k. Went with a Cherokee with 75k miles.

    My biggest concern is how long this carries on before someone whacks Vlad. Lots of "Attack NATO" and "Full Mobilization" quotes out there.

    Also kind of sad that the Communist party of Russia is calling for full mobilization, believing that an army of conscripts has any place on the modern battlefield. Especially after the 1st Guards Tank Army was destroyed in detail.
