Why Russia can’t beat Ukraine – ‘Stupidity’ from Putin down…

First, they reinvaded Ukraine whilst winter was still going on. Second, they did so whilst believing Ukraine would surrender within a few days to a week. Third, Russian troops were sent in without winter clothing. Fourth, Russia’s communicating equipment either didn’t work, or its communications were easily tracked by the Ukrainians. Those four will do for starters…

That was back on 2/24/2022. Around 9/25/2023 this happened – ‘Air Regiment Leaders’ Killed as Drone Self-Destructs on Russian Airfield:

Russian officers were among casualties caused by a Ukrainian unmanned aerial device (UAV) that landed on a military airfield and exploded upon inspection, it has been reported.

After the Ukrainian drone had apparently landed “safely” on the runway, officers from Russia’s Air Force and its main intelligence service, the FSB, examined the device, RBC Ukraine reported on Monday.

When the delegation tried to examine the ‘trophy’ UAV, there was a detonation,” a Ukrainian source told RBC, which said “air regiment leaders” were among the casualties.

One cannot make this stuff up – ‘Stupidity*RULES* in the Russian military.

Porteus 5.0 Cinnamon – Part 6: Package Managers & Porteus Modules

This is the final part, Part 6, of the “Special July 2022 series” on the Porteus Linux page. The other parts are now – HERE. Had moved to this self-hosted KM&T blog last year, from the old Linux Newbie – Since 1996 blog, and have been transferring certain posts & info slowly to here. Requires some editing and moving the pics so it’s not the original ‘Flow’, and dated info can be confusing.

Have been ‘gearing‘ the series towards MS Windows users, but still mindful of interested Linux users. Most everyone in the modern world now uses 2-4 OSes daily…their PC’s & phones for starters.

Primary, Secondary & ‘Companion‘ OSes

I believe Porteus 5.0 Cinnamon is a perfect fit for many Windows 10 and/or Windows 11 users, as their secondary OS and/or a ‘Companion‘ OS alongside their primary Windows 10 and/or Windows 11 OS.

Porteus 5.0 Cinnamon – Part 5: Installing LibreOffice

Still moving some posts from my old Linux Newbie – Since 1996 blog—which is now Private, and may end up being deleted. Was started as a testing & experimenting blog for Linux, but have now moved on to a self-hosted blog. Lots of the info was obsolete, and I am only transferring a small amount of original posts.

This is Part 5 in the Porteus v5.0 series that I am transferring here. Am having to transfer pics and also edit the original 7/11/2022 post, so the version of LibreOffice here is an older one. 😉The series is now being located HERE.

Porteus 5.0 Cinnamon – Part 4: Browsers and the Porteus Browser Tool

Am closing down my old Linux Newbie – since 1996 WordPress.com blog (is Private now), and am in the process of refreshing and moving some of the content over to my self-hosted KM&T (Karmi’s Musings & Tech) blog here. Moving and/or Transferring content requires editing and such, so some do not ‘Flow’ as well as the original did.

This is Part 4 in the Porteus v5.0 series that I am transferring here. The series was sorta geared towards MS Windows users, but still mindful of interested Linux users. Porteus is plenty stable enough for even newbie MS Windows users to thrash ‘n hack around in without breaking everything…in most cases. 😉The series is now being located HERE.
