One of the huge errors of the USSR - partially due to their command economy stifling initiative and innovation - in the 1950, 1960s, and 1970s was failing to develop a semiconductor industry on the scale of what was done in the US. The hit on that facility near Moscow will likely exacerbate a serious bottleneck in Russian military technology.

Now they are more dependent on China. Also, who knows how good Chinese semiconductors are? That is the main reason why China wants Taiwan.

China's Semiconductors are not as bad as you think.  Many of their larger Fabs were built, and are owned by foreign countries, and the chips are sourced back to the original Countries. 

But they still covet Taiwan's Semiconductors, too.

BTW, I was an R&D technician for years, and I did a lot of testing of Chinese, Taiwanese and US chips.

And if China invades Taiwan then the first thing the Taiwanese should do is detonate those fabrication plants to deny them to the CCP.

Russians accusing anyone of committing war crimes is the epitome of hypocrisy.

They learned from Hamas. Hamas can ambush, abduct, rape, and murder, Israelis at will. When Israel acts to stop Hamas and to retaliate, America sides with Hamas.

All the same things apply. Hamas attacks Israel and silence. When Israel prevents Hamas from attacking them it is called "genocide" by America and the World in general. The irony of course is that Hamas and their supporters actually do want 'genocide', and they are proud of it. Hamas says their primary goal is genocide of all Infidels around the world. And Infidels around the world actually support this goal. This means Leftists are protesting in favor of Hamas conquering and enslaving them, their children, and their own friends and families.

"HOW DARE YOU DEFEND YOUR PEOPLE AND YOUR COUNTRY FROM MURDEROUS BARBARIANS!"

There would be no war if Ukraine would simply give up and allow Russia to murder them and take their country. There would be 'peace'. (even though we all know that if Russia is successful in Ukraine, they will simply move on to other conquests).

There would be no war in Gaza if Israel would simply give up and allow Hamas to kill them. (even though we all know Hamas would use Israeli land to launch attacks on their neighbors and the world at large)

I think that is the plan.

Eight killed in fire at Moscow research centre

24 June 2024  •  8:11pm

Two people jumped to their deaths from the top floors of a burning building linked to the production of Russian weaponry, and at least six others have died in the fire, state-owned Tass news agency reported.

The blaze broke out on Monday at the nine-storey Platan research institute building in the town of Fryazino, a scientific hub in the suburbs of Moscow that falls under US sanctions for producing parts for fighter jets and nuclear launches.

It follows a string of sabotage attempts inside Russia and in Europe targeting firms linked to the war effort on both sides of the conflict.

Footage showed a high-rise block ravaged by flames, with smoke billowing out. Close-up images showed workers who appeared to be trapped as the flames grew higher.

Andrei Vorobyov, Moscow’s regional governor, said one person had been rescued from the inferno. He later added: “It is known for sure that while trying to escape, two men jumped out of the window – unfortunately, they died.”

Footage showed people smashing windows as they tried to escape the flames rising from the first floor.  .  .

"Liberators and protectors", according to one poster here:

A Prisoner of War Describes Captivity in Russia

"At Night, I Prayed I Wouldn't Survive to the Next Day"

When Russia invaded Ukraine, Oleksiy Anulya reported for military duty. Russian soldiers took him prisoner. How does one survive hunger, torture and rape? Here, a former prisoner of war tells his story.

Alexander Kauschanski in Ternopil, Ukraine • 24.06.2024, 09.58 Uhr

"At one point, I imagined escaping from the prison. Not to return to Ukraine. It would have been enough to make it to the nearest village, hide in some farmyard and eat pig slop at night. Or at least be shot to death trying to climb over the fence, instead of dying this agonizingly slow death.”

It’s mid-January and Oleksiy Anulya is lying in Hospital N. 1 in Ternopil, located in western Ukraine. His right arm hangs in a sling. The 30-year-old is recovering from a shoulder operation on the trauma surgery ward. It is the 36th time in just over a year that Anulya has received treatment in a hospital.

When the soldier was released on New Year's Eve 2022 after almost 10 months as a Russian prisoner of war, he was emaciated to the point that he was difficult to recognize. He was missing teeth, the flesh on his legs was rotting and several bones were broken. A former kickboxing champion, Anulya’s muscles were gone. More than one year later, he is still struggling to recover.

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the two countries have exchanged prisoners on more than 50 occasions. More than 3,000 Ukrainians have been released, including Oleksiy Anulya. Because he has provided such detailed accounts of his time in prison, Anluya has since become something of a media phenomenon in Ukraine, with millions of people having watched his interviews on YouTube.

On this evening, he will end up speaking for more than six hours – sitting on his hospital bed, lying down, snacking on chocolate pralines. Only once will he interrupt the conversation for a brief bathroom break.

Anulya says that he talks about his time in Russian captivity to make the injustices he experienced visible. And to remind the public of the more than 8,000 Ukrainians who are still locked away in Russian prisons.  .  .  .

Russia promises retaliation against US for Ukraine strike on Crimea

Dmitry Antonov and Guy Faulconbridge  |  June 24, 20246:44 PM EDT  |   Updated 10 min ago

MOSCOW, June 24 (Reuters) - The Kremlin on Monday squarely blamed the United States for an attack on Crimea with U.S.-supplied ATACMS missiles that killed at least four people and injured 151, and Moscow formally warned the U.S. ambassador that retaliation would follow.

The war in Ukraine has deepened a crisis in relations between Russia and the West, and Russian officials have said the conflict is entering the most dangerous escalation to date.

But directly blaming the United States for an attack on Crimea - which Russia unilaterally annexed in 2014 although most of the world considers it part of Ukraine - is a step further.

"You should ask my colleagues in Europe, and above all in Washington, the press secretaries, why their governments are killing Russian children," Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told reporters.

At least two children were killed in the attack on Sevastopol on Sunday, according to Russian officials. People were shown running from a beach near Sevastopol and some of the injured being carried off on sun loungers. Kyiv did not comment on the attack but denies targeting civilians.  .  .  .

.  .  .  A U.S. official later said that Ukraine was not targeting civilians. It seemed that the Russians were able to intercept an ATACMS missile that was targeting a missile launcher, and the ATACMS exploded with shrapnel raining down on the beach, the American official added.

https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/kremlin-blames-us-barbaric-atacms-missile-attack-crimea-2024-06-24/


Russia has been intentionally targeting Ukrainian civilians since this war began.  And now they want to play 'victim' because their air defenses intercepted Ukrainian missiles over civilian areas?

Ukraine’s troops repel 6 Russian attacks north of Kharkiv

Yana Sliemzina  |  24 June 2024  |  18:39

UKRAINE, KHARKIV REGION, June 24 — Ukrainian troops repelled six Russian attacks in the Kharkiv direction since the beginning of the day, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports.

Russia started their new offensive north and northeast in the Kharkiv region in May, but Ukrainian troops have stabilized the frontline in this section since. Now, heavy battles are ongoing in and around Vovchansk (three miles from the border, 46 miles away from Kharkiv) and Lyptsi (six miles away from the border, 12 miles from Kharkiv.)

The Russian military hit Vovchansk, Hrafske, Tykhe, Ternova, Lyptsi, Zelene, and Ohrimivka in the Kharkiv direction with glide bombs.

A spokesman for “Kharkiv” tactical grouping, Yurii Povkh, said on Ukrainian TV that Ukrainian troops keep destroying Russian military equipment near Vovchansk with artillery and FPV-drones. That’s why, he said, Russians have to attack Ukraine’s positions on foot.

In Kupiansk direction, reports the General Staff, combat clashes are ongoing near Stelmakhivka (82 miles from Kharkiv, 20 miles from Kupiansk), Luhansk Oblast.  .  .

While lacking in semiconductors, they make up for it in vacuum tube technology.

UKRAINE, KHARKIV REGION, June 24 — Ukrainian troops repelled six Russian attacks in the Kharkiv direction since the beginning of the day, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports.

The Russians' "breakthough" in Kharkiv that had Ukraine-Haters jiggling with excitement stalled weeks ago and was a few dozen square miles' penetration 4 or 5 miles in depth. Having stalled it, Ukraine has recovered some of what Russian invaders conquered and Russian casualties have been, well, I'm lacking in proportional superlatives.

While lacking in semiconductors, they make up for it in vacuum tube technology.

While Russians' signal-level triodes and pentodes may be excellent, one cannot build a 1970s-grade or better computer with vacuum tubes. Analog signal processing for radar with vacuum tubes is similarly far or vastly less capable than what can be done using digital semiconductors. As for power vacuum tubes, the US has not at all neglected that. Those drones the US military has communicate using TWTs rated for 100s of watts at 4-20 GHz, and some TWTs operate near or above 100 GHz. At my previous employer I worked on the high voltage power supplies for microwave power modules and did the environmental testing, so I remember the range of frequencies at which they were tested. That employer designed and built a wide variety of klystrons, cavity devices, and travelling wave tubes. Nothing I worked on required a security clearance, but some of its products did.

From what I saw on the Russian-loving site (TOS), some moron named Kazan predicted that Kharkiv was going to be occupied by Russia by now.

Kazan is one of the nastiest pro-Kremlin brigade trolls at TOS.  He actually admitted on a thread that he is a Muslim, probably Tatar, living in the city of Kazan in Russia, 500 miles east of Moscow.  Hence his screen name.  He generally attacks pro-Ukrainian posters with smears and insults and incessantly gaslights on every Ukraine post.  He knows exactly what he is doing.

Considering centuries of Czarist and Leninist-Stalinist brutality and slaughter against various Tatar groups, I wonder how someone of Tatar ancestry could become Pro-Russian.

I wonder how may of those 48,000 prisoners that were recruited and sent to Ukraine to die still thought it was a better deal than staying in prison
