Haven't heard about it

All Western info sources are operating in full war propaganda mode at the moment

But we do have new laws about posting fakes about Russian loses or some such, and anti-war agitation. Bans on YouTube and Facebook announced but for me they're still working fine.

I have never witnessed such a propaganda blitz as this in my life. Frankly its terrifying. All the more shows me that my country has been hijacked by very malevolent people. Doesnt matter the political persuasion. All bad.

There are no anti war parties in the west except when it is not them starting the war...

"I doubt that the Allies would have agreed on an attack like this. Britain and France were exhausted, so it would have been the USA alone. The Russians would have been on the defensive once again and probably would have experienced a moral boost from that."

He agreed with my statement but said it would have been worth the sacrifice.

Except that Stalin was able to shift an enormous force to the other side of his country to defeat the Japanese very very quickly... if the western allies wanted to try something in Europe, they would have been fighting enormous forces that were tired but also pissed off at what the Germans had just done to their country.

The irony really is that the west was happy to invest in and befriend the Chinese to use them against the Russians... well if you can make friends with communist Chinese, who are still communist to this day, then what the **** is your problem with non communist Russia now?

I have a book written in about the 1870s by a British artillery officer and in it he talks about the dangerous half asian Russians just itching to steal India from the British Empire... they weren't communist then, but they were rivals... like they are now which is why they will always be hated... it doesn't matter what politics or religion they follow.

I don't think you guys realize that a lot of Americans don't like Russia because many Americans hate Communism, Marxism and Socialism.

I think a lot of those Americans have got no idea what communism or marxism or socialism even is.

So you think an ant colony could survive if it was just every one for himself?

Humans can't either... any man or woman on their own would be easily defeated by any group of other people... if we didn't work together in groups there would be no way we could have computers or high rise buildings... how many houses near where you live were built by one person... one person who built it, put in the plumbing, the electrics, everything?

The Me me me ideology leads to consumerism and the death of our planet, but it is useful for the rich and powerful because then they don't need to make functioning health care services for everyone, and they can save lots of money on mental health and education.

Think of the Trump term in office... any time he wanted to do something good or useful something would come up to piss him off and screw it up... they hounded him every time he talked to Putin because they claimed he was a SPY.

He went in to office saying he wanted to improve relations with Russia to make the US better and more powerful, and they made him impose more sanctions than Obama imposed on the Russians and we are seeing the results now... this is not going to be good for Russia, but killing nazis with WMDs they wont see any other option... and the fact that the US was making custom designed bioweapons to murder Russians and also helping nazis get nuclear weapons... well I suspect they wont be looking to the US for partnerships for some time now if ever.

America is the bad guy in this... and I don't mean I am offended because you addressed me with the wrong pronoun...

If they now shift their policy and encourage the Ukraine to come to a deal with Russia, then they will be able to maintain globalism for a little longer yet, albeit considerably weakened, and with nothing to employ against China.

They are building anti Russian genetic bio weapons... and arming nazis with them and nuclear weapons... what more is there to talk about?

Russia needs to make anti Europe genetic bio weapons and a lot more nukes.

Being here in America I don't know if this is true or not but is it true that a law has been passed that if anybody calls this conflict between Russia and Ukraine a "war" in Russia that they will receive 15 years of prison time? If true that is pretty ridiculous.

Coming from the west who has blocked RT and Sputnik, I would say BS.

Russia has blocked some western news sources but only in response to those sites banning Russian equivalents first.

At higher levels US aide can generally only be spent on US products so it is a US taxpayer gift to the US MIC most of the time.

Once they have bought a percentage of US military equipment they will find they have to buy the whole set because it wont work with anything else... and what they got for free they will pay for in maintenance and upgrades over the next few years.

It is not aide, it is control and market access/dominance.

RT Channel on Youtube is no longer accessible here in Canada. It looks like the censorship is worldwide. Russia should seize this opportunity to present to the world its alternative to Youtube to counter NATzO propaganda asap. Also, since NATzO is already engaged in an economic war against Russia, It would be a good idea to host a video streaming site where viewers can access the latest HD Hollywood films and all other NATzO copyrighted products. Anything that would cause enormous economic loss to all NATzO businesses is welcome

saw this ad today, it seems the Ukronazis and their NATzO backers are getting desperate  

The BBC promises to show all sides of the story... which should include Putins side and the Russian side... so the BBC should be banned too, for propaganda...

Dumb khazars, they just gave away the game. From now on every footage from Ukraine and their butt buddies are suspect

I have no interest wading through NATzO fanboi excrement. The title of that video tells me all I need to know.

Even if Russia does not get a single new HPC processor, its HPC capacity will not diminish for over a decade. I have been using
and maintaining HPC systems for over two decades and the only parts that croak on a regular basis are the hard disks. These are
being actively replaced with solid state drives. CPUs and motherboards do not burn out if they are not defective from the factory.
In that case they fail early anyway.

High resolution lithography is the only tech that Russia does not produce itself. The only tech, end of story. Ten years is more than
enough time for Russia and China to resolve the TSMC aspect. China is almost there already regardless what YouCrap fanboi videos
claim. It will initiate mass production in 14 nm this year. It is on track for 10 nm and smaller resolutions in the next few years regardless
of Uncle Swineshit's sanctions. Russia can source all the M.2 and SSD components from China.

It is tiresome listening to the same racist drivel from westerners. You clowns have no monopoly on human intelligence. In fact,
your average IQ is falling rapidly in the brave new world of CRT "education" and face diaper mandates.

People talk about 10nm and 7nm chips like it has significance, the vast majority of uses for computers use cheap very simple very old chip designs... the chips in toasters don't need to process video files, many super computers don't even use new powerful chips because what makes them powerful is parallel processing, which means lots of slower cheaper chips in large numbers can be more effective than fewer faster chips.

The data bottle necks in computer design means CPUs rarely use 100% of their processing power very often at all, and a well designed OS and well designed software can make a huge difference too.

Being cut off from the west is going to be very good for Russia because it means their independence will be complete and they can offer to the rest of the world a choice that is not the moral and ethic vacuum that is the west to cooperate and trade with.

It is not going to be easy, but very few things really worth doing are.

Good observation about HPC. Back in the day we had vector processor based supercomputers (e.g. NEC SX series) that were designed from the ground up
to be very efficient in memory access and speed. Then we got scalar parallel supercomputers taking over and they all have the same problem as any PC
and that is cache bottlenecks and trashing. A lot of code is not optimized for the cache architecture of the scalar processors on the HPC system.
Programmers are not low level hardware specialists and don't even know how to produce assembler code. The code run on HPC systems is also born
in science and engineering fields which are not staffed by professional programmers. Some places have dedicated programmers who facilitate the
scientists to generate the code but that is not universal.

Given the history from the USSR period, Russia can make better use of its HPC hardware than for example America can. This comes from having to do
more with less and having a rigorous mathematics background. It is ironic that filthy rich America with its vast supercomputer potential is not so hot
when it comes to the programming.
