I mean, all the opinion polls for starters?

He is stable second place. Nobody is even close. I bet Zelensky himself do see him as a major threat for his reelections.

Paul Manafort was just one of the names we heard. But with his ratings, he can be picky about who he is dealing with. Literally any oligarch in Ukraine would pay him a lot if that means he would do some favours.

Others in Ukraine see him as a potential political figure. He didn’t deny the possibility to become one - which is a hint as bold as you can get.

There is an informal rule in Ukraine to put politics aside during the war. Cause Ukrainian society was very divided by politics, much alike USA. Protests recently were an exception, because people felt like the current government break the “no politics, everything to win the war” rule with their powergrab move towards anticorruption institutions.

Zaluzhnyi is a previous commander, he knows well why this is so important not to bring politics back. He is also undeniable pro-Ukrainian. Even if I wouldn’t like him as a president, I can applaud to his principles.

Also, does it affect installs via adb? Obtainium + Shizuku can be a way forward.

Google says that only apps with verified identities will be installable on certified Android devices, which is virtually every Android-based device—if it has Google services on it, it’s a certified device.

Any chance you can just remove their shit via adb?

You can often just email the authors and get a free copy. It’s not like they receive any royalty.

Didn’t check, but the author mentioned it saves something to localstorage

Yep, real.

Sorry but this resembles invisible russian protests more and more every day, stuff like writing “*** *****” (хуй войне – fuck war) on the walls while nobody sees.

Which is fucking sad, because it achieves nothing except giving a feeling that you do something.

Seen just recently - petroleum crisis

Except that, every hit like that is another cut that cripples economy. The most effective action of “Just Stop Oil” campaign by so far.

But west IS ramping up Ukrainian drone production, it’s called “Danish model” and lots of EU countries joined it (mostly those who have no aspirations in their own MIC).

It’s not 1k drones a day and I doubt it ever will be. Currently they do 500 but that’s not daily, that’s accumulation/discharge. And Ukraine is taking down the most of them - which still means like 10-20 hit the targets per wave.

But I mean, it’s not one-sided thing and stuff burns in russia too. Ukrainian long-range capabilities are better than ever. So many events that would sound groundbreaking in 2022 are just another Friday.

Correct on threat assessment, but it’s not about drone attacks only. Ukraine is better at finding out some new solutions (action from businesses + volunteers + low rank combatants), russia is better at copying success and scaling on a system level (government vertical works faster).

Recent success on the battlefield is them scaling anti-pilot measures. Recent success denial is collaboration between the best Ukrainian battalions.

But I disagree on economic assessment. Point of economy getting shredded is close. I’d say something is highly likely to happen in a span of a year. It would be faster if USA did play their role and sanction oil/gas, like the thing they stated to with India (which EU did, but USA frozen for now).

After all, russia isn’t limitless. It’s their core strategy to make themselves look like so. They had deep reserves of artillery, tanks, currency+gold, aviation, fleet - all of this is getting thinner. Like they rarely use tanks today. But you can’t do the same with money.

The discussion is only continued to show Trump that russia is not serious about peace.

russia would need to end the war fairy soon, but at this point in time they still feel like they can do more, thus negotiations are delayed and met with unserious demands – many of which Trump just didn’t understand lmao, like this whole discussion about EU troops in Ukraine after ceasefire, but russia meant “russian & chinese troops, and only if russia agrees” kind of deal, mentioning old 2022 “negotiations”.

YouTubers doing YouTubers thing.

Rocket won’t do shit. You need people with charges to go in and mine it. If opponent is close, that sapper group could meet enemy fire.

Anti-tank mine TM-62

It’s often being used as big dumb pack of explosives

Like here russians mined their own bridge with packs of them

Skill issue

Definitely the case, because I was reading some independent ukrainian analysis on early deepstrikes vs refineries, some key components were targeted that are irreplaceable. All those deepstrikes are a long chain of spying, analysis, desicions, logistics, execution - with many people and time involved into each case. And ofc we see only successful ones. Huge amount of work been done there.
