@KarolNF11 Yhy- 78 tys samej skladki zdrowotnej w 2025r. A wiesz ile wynosi emerytura socjalna dla kogoś kto nigdy nic nie płacił?
Polski
U mojego ojca składka ZUS za zeszły miesiąc JDG : 9079,18 zl , skończył 65 lat w kwietniu - proponowana emerytura 2.200 zł . (30 lat prowadzenia działalności w naszej ukochanej Polsce popłacone miliony podatków i różnych składek na ogólnokrajowy dobrze rozwijający się socjal , za komuny w służbie zdrowia 8,5 roku)
Brzmi jak ponury żart? Niestety to nie żart!
Czy ktoś wie może dlaczego są różnice w naliczaniu u nas w Kielcach od Warszawy?

@ahardtospell I am guessing for 2) it’s mostly what not to do/cautionary tales
Or is there more to it?

I'm working my way through the Federalist Papers in their entirety and I did not expect the amount of time allocated to
1) Foreign policy/grand strategy
2) The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth

@phl43 Many Poles refuse to believe that we might be in the ballpark of South Korean or Japanese income levels simply because they have Samsung, LG, Hyundai and Toyota, Sony and Nintendo.
Having a less concentrated, more diverse economy seems to help Poland during crises.
English
I wonder if there isn't a lesson here though. Many developing countries try to catch up by creating "national champions", but Poland suggests that a more balanced and less flashy strategy might be preferable.
What matters at the end of the day is to raise productivity and create enough well-paid jobs. Perhaps "national champions" are sometimes helpful for that, but if you can do that without creating any, I don't see why you should care.

Interestingly, Poland stock market is only worth $305B in total market cap. HSBC alone is worth that much. Not to downplay Poland but they still don’t have companies on par with British companies like ARM or AstraZeneca.

@NJSussexGuy @Peat_Mindset1 @Landeur it's also going to be grimly funny in a few years when people like you repeat Vance's criticism of Europe in the Bush era:
that we should have been more independent and assertive and told Bush to fuck off;
but this war of choice in ME for bullshit reason is of course OK
English
@NJSussexGuy @Peat_Mindset1 @Landeur and the fact that this does not register with you because your idol spews some unhinged rants on TV, is what makes having a reality based relationship with the US harder; especially when people with your attitude move from social media into places of real power

Trump trying to use the Falkland Islands as a pressure point is not sensible.
The lefties in the UK already hate America and Trump. This won’t change that.
But on your current trajectory nationalist / patriotic Brits will start to hate you too.
English
@justincbzz tbh when it comes to AA losses much of the difference in AA system density and proximity to the front;
Russia has a metric ton of Tors, Buks compared to UA AA density and RU push their AA closer to the frontline so you should expect more RU losses because more, closer targets
English
Russia no longer has Starlink and their ISR drones are getting decimated. This is no longer 2024 where their drones were casually flying over cities and witnessing Iskander strikes.
Ukraine on the other hand has massively scaled middle strike (FP2, HX-2, RAM-2X, Bulava, Hornet), has access to dedicated SAR capabilities and their ISR drones generally survive longer than the russians ones due to RU lagging capability interceptor wise.

@SU_57R No ukrainian SAMs or radar losses looks very sus

@ncapeyronSABA @phl43 to believe the moon landing was fake you have to believe in some illuminati or reptilian world government level of bullshit and then everyone has their strings pulled by the same secret cabal including US, Soviets, Chinese, etc.
English
@phl43 Mouais, les russes ont tjs admis que les américains étaient allé sur la Lune, les Indiens et les Chinois ont récemment pris des photos des sites d’alunissage mais ça ne suffit pas aux débiles conspis donc c’est pas un problème de confiance mais juste de stupidité
Français
The problem is that nobody who has the ability to fire a laser at specific coordinates on the surface of the moon needs to be convinced that humans really went there and the people who do aren't going to trust what they say.

美国当年登月的时候，就怕你们不相信，安装了三台激光反射器在了月球表面，但凡有点实力的天文台，往那个坐标打一束激光脉冲，就能收到返回光信号，年年打年年收到，56年了没断过。全世界航天局都承认美国登月是真的，都2026年了，还有一群民科在造谣阿波罗登月是假的。

@DanielR33187703 I hope you are right, but deciding the Russian air defence stocks are close to exhaustion based on the rate of Bars flights is not based on a causal relationship.
English
@DanielR33187703 ehhh… tbh that’s a „just so” story
You could just as well write that Russia successfully disrupted Ukrainian drone production which is why you see fewer of those. Or that Ukraine struggled with scaling up production of the Bars or decided it’s not cost effective.
English
One anecdotal observation is that Ukraine is flying fewer jet-powered drones like Bars. Instead, cheaper propeller-driven drones are used. This suggests russia's air defence has been degraded to where the faster jet drones are not needed.
MAKS 26 🇺🇦👀@Maks_NAFO_FELLA
💥 The strikes on Russian military factories appear to have had real results. Military correspondent Romanov reports a serious shortage of missiles for Russia's air defenses, which are no longer able to cope with Ukrainian drone attacks. Furthermore, Russia is experiencing problems with its Iskander missiles, which no longer fly on target and often miss by a kilometer. There are some problems with the electronics.
English
@GuyPlopsky right now I see people on Twitter claiming this might be recycled from one of the Kuwaiti crashes, but I guess we will know soon enough whether it's copium
we'll know for sure soon enough, but it seems like they got their first air defence kill
English
Not an F-35. This is the wreckage of an F-15E from the Lakenheath-based "Panthers" (494th Fighter Squadron). Hopefully, the crew survived.
Press TV 🔻@PressTV
Spokesman of Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters: 🔺 A second US fifth-generation F-35 was struck & downed over central Iran by a new IRGC Aerospace Force air-defense system. 🔺 Given the massive explosion on impact and during the crash, the pilot is unlikely to have ejected.

@policytensor The Arabian plate is converging with the Eurasian so the Hormuz strait will close by itself in a few millions years effectively rendering this entire issue irrelevant.
English
@PeterMeijer In the same way that every European country who told Bush to get lost was right in 2003 and every country which joined was wrong.
Which funnily enough is something Vance and some MAGA crowd was talking about. But now Trump wants to offload his self inflicted shitstorm on us.
English
@PeterMeijer There’s only so much we can do. The person who made these comments is retarded. If this is truly the prevailing sentiment among US decision makers then there’s nothing Europeans can do.
Us not following the US into your war of choice on behest of Israel is the correct choice.
English
It would behoove our NATO allies to appreciate that this sentiment is *very* widely shared, including amongst erstwhile boosters of trans-Atlantic relations.
English
@HenryWi86212968 @WeaponScientist Tbh if NATO ends up as something which has an on switch for Democratic presidents and an off switch for Republican ones then it’s effectively dead.
English
@WeaponScientist It can then be returned by future presidents tbh.
English
The Administration would almost certainly assert and litigate that POTUS has the inherent constitutional power to abrogate treaties.
I am not optimistic about how SCOTUS would rule given the existing precedent. Namely Bush’s unilateral withdrawal from the ABM Treaty.
English
@SamLitel @KilledInUkraine @bayraktar_1love Ka 52 can fire explosive charges which push the rotor away and the crew can eject safely.
But here I think they died from the drone impact so hopefully no one was alive to pull the ejection handle.
English
@KilledInUkraine @bayraktar_1love Unfortunately，eject seat is useless on helicopter. Eject to the screw?

🔥Russian Ka-52 burns on the ground after being shot down by FPV drone of the 59th Brigade. Pokrovsk front.
Special Kherson Cat 🐈🇺🇦@bayraktar_1love
🚨🔥 Minutes ago, a Russian Ka-52 attack helicopter was shot down by an FPV drone operated by Ukraine’s 59th Brigade on the Pokrovsk direction.
English
@KilledInUkraine @bayraktar_1love The final camera frame from the FPV showed that it was approaching from the front. So chances are the crew caught the warhead shrapnel in the face.
English
@bayraktar_1love What Ejection Seats Doing? Any info?
