In general, only submarines and aircraft carriers are nuclear powered, plus a small number of Soviet ice breakers, and even fewer research vessels, now decommissioned. In case of Russia even their aircraft carrier is fossil-fuel powered, and generally just a joke.

Thanks for at least addressing some of my points.

So all “Wagner” presence left in the world is now Russian MOD.

Then why even call it Wagner anymore? But that's a minor point.

And if the videos prove it or not is separate from the point I made.

Fine. Then provide some other evidence, please.

Doing the most damage to your enemy and keeping them off balance is the “game”. And if the MOD has to retask troops to protect their foreign holdings, Ukraine wins double.

In this case, by MOD you mean the Russian MOD? That makes some sense.

Russians can stop all of that by withdrawing to pre 2014 borders.

Undoubtedly, and in my opinion that's the only option worth discussing.

Right. Reddit has arrived. Ad-hominem attacks without addressing the actual points. Thank you.

Not so much server-based, but the experimental part of "lab" is well covered: I replaced my late-2013 27" iMac's internal HDD with an SSD. It's a really delicate procedure, as the display is glued to the chassis; it needs to be cut loose and very carefully removed (it's tempered glass), and then re-glued with special adhesive strips. But the performance gain is worth it. In addition, it also now runs Ventura, even with the nVIDIA card, thanks to OpenCore Legacy Patcher. Feels like a new machine now, and is perfectly adequate even for small video editing tasks with its 32 GB RAM.

They are not "analogues" of the Leopard 2, they are actual Leopard 2 variants, comparable to the 2A5 variant, just given a Swedish designation.

I don't think there's anything intrinsically wrong, but far as I can see you are using only a single disk for the zfs pool, which will give you integrity checks (know when something is corrupted), but no way to fix it.

Since this is, by today's standards, a tiny disk at 100G, I assume this is just a test setup? I'm not sure zfs is particularly well suited for virtual machines, I think it is better to have the host handle the physical data integrity by having the disk image on a zfs filesystem, or giving the VM a zfs volume (block device) directly.

Good news, if true. I have a soft spot for any delta wing fighter, especially true deltas without empennage, so that includes Delta Dagger, Delta Dart and all Mirages except the F1.

[...] they are being acquired in cooperation with other countries.

So presumably from some ex-Warsaw-Pact-now-NATO countries, of which there are quite a few.

For future reference: ATACMS (Hint: "Attack-Ms" should be easy to remember). You got it wrong twice in as many attempts.
