Speaking of having no self-control, note that the ship was still on fire when the picture was taken.

The ship went down about 9 hours later.

It doesn't have to actually print money. It can emit debt in US dollars faster (that's still printing money), and we have countries lining up to buy it. This is what happens with China, for example.

But ultimately, yes, if you mean literally printing US dollar bills, it's certainly the only country that can do that. The worst case for expanding considerably your monetary base in a short span is inflation, but it won't be default (again, with the exception being the artificial, self-imposed "debt ceiling").

Thing is, there just isn't a more stable currency. The Euro and Yen are the two other currencies that more or less can compete, but they still fluctuate too much.

The dollar strength is compared vis a vis with other currencies. The Chinese devalue their currency all the time to remain compe ive, this is why that's not a currency anybody really wants to do business in the long term.

So you're saying the US is stable because unstable countries say so.

No, even relatively stable countries says so. Because it's not just a matter of saying, but having a track record over time that backs up the contention.

Funny though, that's the same people that send their kids to America to study and western europe to live.

That's what they want to for the poor Russian slobs, not for them.

We got nary room, Ister. We've banned President Trump and his followers from numerous sources of free speech here.

We have as much centralized Media as the next asshole country in the line. State run media CNN & FOX are prime examples.

Nope. Conservatives can't quit twitter, or YouTube or the web, etc... they have the freedom to build their own, and did so over and over.

It just turns out the echo chamber doesn't work, you have to actually go out there and parade yourself as a re to get clicks and money.

It is sad. At some point, more and more of them are going to realize they have been lied to.

But at least they are honest about their totalitarianism.

Fire control on board their ships is apparently almost completely lacking. No budget for it, even if they did it would have gone into some admirals pocket instead of the ship.

Eyup. Like every other country that has become involved in a war in the last two or three hundred years, it has started running out of artillery ammo.

Ironic, but it means they are close to exhaustion.

RUS is running out of tanks, ammo, and troops.

UKR is doing little better. The flow of aid needs to be stepped up.

NATO needs to take off the gloves, and just start giving them artillery kit.

Saving grace is that UKR's artillery is much, much more accurate due to those drones.

Speaking of accurate artillery, just got linked to a video where a drone was doing observing for a UKR mortar platoon.

UKR [first round hits near positions]

RUS INF [runs for cover in nearby house]

UKR [hits field behind the positions while RUS INF is running, killing two]

RUS INF [gets in house]

UKR [hits just behind house]

RUS INF [runs for house #2, right next door]

UKR [obliterates house #1]

RUS INF [starts running out of house #2 for forest]

UKR [obliterates house #2, hits field nearby fleeing RUS INF, killing another two]

RUS INF-4 [Runs the away to the tree line]

Sooo, yeah. If you can make every shot count, you don't need to waste ammo.
