Massive swell of people to make any progress to have something to campaign with for Putin’s re-election. Ukraine has been generally running low on artillery and can’t fully capitalize on countering large unit offenses. The Ukrainians have a lot of western equipment but are low on funds to supply them.

naively pushing for this is difficult because it can be easily interpreted as funding proxy wars and forever wars. It would probably need to be obfuscated as ‘effective defense spending’ or an excuse to reduce/replace stockpiles. The later a reason for the first few Ukrainian aid bills iirc.

Depends on the project. If it’s for fun, sure make all the square wheels you want and learn how to make them round. But if you just want your project to work you’d find something to use. Really depends on the developers goals.

Pepe the frog is from the Boys Club, a comic or children’s book; I don’t know, it just had a couple talking animals. The first picture of him with the feels good man caption was very silly and took off from there. Unfortunately pepe became a hate symbol after 15 years.
