I vote six times a day from my phone, job and home. So for the last three days, I alone am 18 hits. And we're 80. WTF?by Kstatida - Main Board
I vote and it doesn't work. The fuckers banned Russian IPs it seems. I'll call Ed Snowden to clarify.by Kstatida - Main Board
a mystery covered in darkness. It's impossible to estimate, as RUB devaluated compared to USD 75 times during 1992.by Kstatida - OT Board
For example I'm responsible for $200M annual budget (I actually am). If I fuck up $10M out of it - I'm fine. If I fuck up $100 - I'm incompetent and definitely a subject to layoff and possibly prosecution. Saint Petersburgh budget is around $7.5B, of which $100M would be about 1,3%. And that is without regard for the context, political struggle, actual part of the resources lby Kstatida - OT Board
I don't argue that the deal turned out to be bad eventually. It's the "corrupt or incompetent" simplification that I'm arguing. I've made a number of bad deals in my life, but I am hardly incompetent in my field of expertise. Same with everyone who has any experience of doing anything. Making mistakes != being incompetent.by Kstatida - OT Board
By mentioning context and misinfo in the article, I state that you have no info to make conclusions. I have never said that everything was ok there, that's your (inaccurate) conclusion because I countered your "corrupt or incompetent" statement. I cannot say that "it was a mistake", because I do not know. What I do know, however, is that political administration an isby Kstatida - OT Board
Salye's report is the primary official document which all the speculation is based on. The article interprets it, messing with the report's contents. PaulO is basing his conclusions on article, which refers to the report. I have read the report itself and stated that the article contains creative interpretation of it at the very best. At the same time PaulO's conclusions miss the cby Kstatida - OT Board
If both persons don't have info, then it's the argument you've described. When one of the persons has the info (and as I've stated, I've read the report in question), the argument is perfectly valid. In our case - I know the context, and I've read the document in question. Note that by this I don't justify that I am right and someone is wrong, I only dismissby Kstatida - OT Board
I can't be the person doing 20% of the voting, and judging from the numbers, I am.by Kstatida - Main Board
I've written what I've written - the report does not contain statement about food not being supplied and contains no evidence of crime. And the President's words certainly were not referring to the whole $100M package, because Salye's report itself states that at least part of food was supplied and was arguing timeframe of the supplies. I did not suggest it "didn't eby Kstatida - OT Board
Then no, it's not part of Russian political system, and that shit is harshly prosecuted. I also do not expect to bribe anyone to get municipal things done. The intertwining of financial, corporate, political and power branches interests, however, is in place. It is hardly noticeable on individual level though. But if I'm going to invest $1B into a business - there's much to talk abby Kstatida - OT Board
How else could England wage 1854 war or France draw intself into 1812 invasion? Starting 1710s, the anti-Russian information policy became a necessity for European countries, because if it was otherwise, they would be slowly but inevitably drawn into the Russian orbit. Geography and economy defines politics. If european countries don't antagonize Russia, they become part of it eventually.by Kstatida - OT Board
Ok, I've finally wasted 1.5 hours of my life watching this :) 1. Misinfo on Putin's Parlament majority blocking bombings prosecution. United Russia didn't have majority till 2004. 2. Misinfo on reason for 2nd Chechen war. It happened because Chechen militants invaded Dagestan and attacked the town of Botlich, not because of Volgodonsk bombings. 3. Misinfo on reason for 1st Cheby Kstatida - OT Board
The main argument is that I have read the report, you guys didn't. I know what it says and it contains no evidence of law breach and does not even state that the funds were lost. At the same time I've described the context, but it keeps to be ignored, which I find strange. But most important, note that what I have asked from many people, but not a single one still did so - I'by Kstatida - OT Board
But you don't know the other options he had, don't know the context, and don't know whether it happened the way it was described in the article (I've read the report itself, it's laughable).by Kstatida - OT Board
We didn't have liquid currency in economy by then, so he couldn't inject that into economy. The economy itself was not functioning. The scheme was - you provide materials to firm that sells it on the international market and then supplies you food. P.S. Ok, I've taken my precious time and actually read Salye's report (http://XN--H1AAFLGCEHAOKH4B5I.XN--P1AI) - it's in Rby Kstatida - OT Board
Will comment on verbal testimony later if need be. Didn't watch that much. If it's testimony like "Putin is a bloody tyrant who eats children" - to hell with it, if it's like "He ordered me to do that and I did it" - that's another case and could even be used in court.by Kstatida - OT Board
