News / Poland - A True Bastion and Defender of Free Speech [250]

Good idea... If EU does not give money for nothing anymore, Poland will cover this gap in budget by issuing fines to high-tech companies for something that occured in unrelated jurisdictions... ;)

History / Poland must get back Lwow, Wilno and Brest back [345]

UK, Ireland / Hitler gagdets in Britain and Poland? [24]

I read it many times that he was paranoid.

He was heavy "user" of pervitine (commercial name of metamphetamine), and the same drug (in form of pills and stimulating chockolade bars) was included in everyday ration of german army. I read few researches that attribute many of atrocities done by germans on occupied territories to psychological side effect of this drug.

News / Green electricity in Poland [41]

- "Green" lobby tend to attack every politician that is pro-nuclear. So, if green lobby succeeds, forget about nuclear. Germany already lost their nuclear plants.

- Not all AC can work as "heat pump". Usually more expensive ones, that is not commonly used in countries with hot climate (personal experience with Spain and Dominican Republic). And... There is usually no need in heating at all... Just cooling, what takes even more energy than heating in colder climates.

- Renewables mean conversion of resources that is currently used to produce food to fuel/energy production. Be it solar panels that shadows ground and make it useless for agriculture or rapeseed fields to be used for biodiesel. Do you have excess of food and there is no hunger on Earth anymore?

- Trains full of bananas going from South America to Poland - it is a wet dream.... ;)

Do you plan to prohibit cold winters and hot summers, totally close borders to stop spending fuel for transportation of goods from China, prohibit air travel and using air conditioners?

And Russia doesn't want take even Donetsk (which would be a huge economic burden for Russia).

I think Russia wait till whole Novorussia will be ready to reunite, to get back whole bunch of Russian land given by Lenin to newly created Ukrainian republic for their political reasons.

News / Modern F-35 bought by Poland. Good decision? [288]

Poles (according to earlier posts to this thread) already very busy looking for nukes to load on their new wunderwaffe, and deciding what is first - duty or pleasure (you should know that joke). ;) Nobody take care to calculate total cost of ownership yet.

I can only wish good luck to polish pilots, who have to fly on that super high-tech coffins and must believe that they are invisible mans. ;)

... unless this F-35 will not be used just like Javelins is used by Ukraine - storage in a well guarded warehouse only, without any usage in the field allowed. ;)

Drones are much cheaper and more practical.

Yes, if used against some third world country. Use of "global coverage" drones against country that already have means to destroy or damage comm/control satellites will be problematic.

This does not make F-35 purchase by Poland more reasonable, though. ;)

Memo to Poland: cancel that order

Impossible. Because this is not the regular order, but the way to pay pizzo to US.

Polish politicians probably forgot, that pizzo is sized to be affordable, but has to be paid regularily, it is not one time payment. ;) Next time it will be huge lot of spare parts for that F-35 (absolutely neccessary to protect Poland from Russia, and overpriced just like jets itself). Then hundred of new updated helmets, custom made for each pilot. And again... And once more... And...

There is good thing for Russian developers that F-35 will be regularily available in the air nearby, to test advanced realtime "destealthing" software updates for S-400. ;)

Maybe if Poland gets too annoying, it might get a new smolensk moment? Who knows

Smolensk moment was due to internal stupidity, not due to outside annoyance.

But stupidity can be very annoying as well, and cause much more problems that sudden career growth for a large number of politicians....

Poland ... poising a mortal threat to Russia.

Who said you that BS? Poland by itself does not pose any threat, because even while completely brainwashed, Poles still care about yourself, their children, and the land they plan to continue to live in future (just like Russians). Threat is NATO bases that is de-facto controlled from large distance by someone who does not care at all about both polish people and the land.

Let's name things by their own names. Trump said that it's time to "fari vagnari u pizzu", if you sell russophobia to the world, you have to pay their share to the masters who made this item sellable to a third parties and who offer their advertising support. United States have problems, and funding of Poland from EU is also coming to the end, so now it is time to pay something to "big boys", supporting their economy and taking away some of monetary losses, linked to F-35 program. Later it will be harder to find money to pay.

We all know the reality - some clunky 80s Sukhoi

Then why Polish politicians need such large loads of fresh diapers once they hear the word "Russia"?

Russophrenia - "a condition where the sufferer believes Russia is both about to collapse, and take over the world."

(including taking the huge damage that stealth Raptors are able to cause

... in your wet dreams and in a manufacturer advertising booklets. Maybe F-35 is little bit "stealth" to 1960's style soviet X-band radars that is used by African countries, but you have to be very lucky to sneak into russian airspace hoping to be invisible to all overlapping systems of different bands.

Can you tell me, why there was panic once Turkey tried to have S-400 and F-35 in the same hands?

News / Nuclear Power in Poland? Yes, please! Absolutely nobody disagrees! [73]

To what degree ?

Depends of reactor type. In any case, a lot of uranium still there, but cannot be used further safely after some point, set by reactor designers.

"Most" is the key word here

Most active - short lived ones who give huge activity and strong heating first months after unloading. It is why such rods stored in a pools with water near reactor for cooling. After short lived nuclides decay and heating decrease to a level that can be managed by transport containers, rods can be transported to a long storage near reprocessing factory, for years. After activity is decreased further due to decay, rods will be disassembled and remaining uranium and some other valuable elements (including some transmutated ones) extracted. The rest will be treated as active waste, dried and fused into glass blocks to be buried for millennias.

If memory serves me correctly, if you buy your rods from Russia, you have an option to get a "full lifecycle" contract. You receive fresh fuel, and rods is taken back after they depleted and sit for necessary period in a station fuel cooling pools to let most active nuclides decay so rods can be transported.

invent a mouse flavored cat food.

Invent a cat-proof container as well, otherwise you will be unable to transport your product to retail stores. ;)
