The big question is whether or not the hole was centered at both end with this being a cross section cut from the barrel
If that was the case the blank would have been out of round (bowed). I would say that is impossible not to catch since I am guessing the units are centimeters but we are talking about Russian manufacturing.
If it was "just" bored off center it would indicate the chuck was screwed up and the jaws weren't centering the workpiece. Again easy to notice visually that far off.

Per a friend who managed a Baker Hughes rental tool location in Russia, it some rot gut stuff with a liter down before work and one during working hours to maintain. Fuel grade more than drinking grade

"Fear of a hungry winter makes Poles go to Belarus." Propaganda tries to convince Belarusians of terrible life of Europeans
Propagandists talk about how "poor" Poles are ready to queue for hours at the border, just to get to a well-fed, stable and rich Belarusian region.
In the video, there is a queue from the Belarusian-Polish border, however, it is from the Belarusian side. Belarusians, according to the old "good" tradition, stand in kilometer-long queues. Right now, there are about 500 cars on the way to Poland.

China has stopped investing in Russia as part of Xi Jinping's central program
China did not conclude deals with Russian organizations under the "One Belt, One Road" program in the first half of 2022.
This indicates Beijing's desire to limit cooperation with Russia in order not to fall under sanctions
"One Belt,One Road" is a global infrastructure development program that covers various sectors. Russia has been one of the main beneficiaries of Chinese spending on program.

I figured it was coming soon as much as they have been firing. Those tubes are probably glowing red everyday they are so hot from shell after shell. It was just a matter of time before they blew up. Probably wounded the crew of that gun too. Russia couldn’t care less if they blow up and kill their own men though so won’t do shite about it. That’s just an embarrassment to be honest that they allow all those guns to remain in service knowing full good and well that they all most likely need an overhaul.
After days of drama and arguing and trolls, feels like a good time to appreciate some of the knowledge base and skills that contribute to this thread on a regular basis.

Checking in on the thread. 10 more pages of OML menstruating all over the thread and 10 more pages of posters responding to every fricking post of his. Do you people not get it? He's immune to facts, correction, or counterarguments. That awesome response you're typing out isn't going to penetrate his skull. He's not here to converse, learn, or discuss. He's only here to preach and feed his own self-righteousness. Please stop feeding the douchebag. Please.

For all the talk about tanks and tank numbers early in the conflict, why haven’t we seen massed attacks of Russian tanks? Is it because of the inadequate air cover? Lack of infantry to support the tanks?

Kazakhstan is preparing the army to defend against the Russian Federation, sharply increases the military budget by $918 million and expands cooperation with China and NATO, fearing becoming the next in the list of the Kremlin's geopolitical ambitions, writes WSJ
Kazakhstan is also preparing to support some Western sanctions: in early July, the Ministry of Finance published for public discussion a draft order prohibiting the supply of goods included in the sanctions lists to Russia and Belarus.

Man they have come a LONG way since January. Makes you wonder if we don’t have some folks on the ground there specifically working this shift with some form of guarantees. This shift is very important if for nothing else but potential for O&G and Uranium in a potential post-Russia future in the west for energy. Same with their neighbors.

Not surprising. He really thinks he's landed gentry. Little dude probably talks like Foghorn Leghorn.

Yea, something like “diversity undermines social cohesion and ruins society. It is not a good thing” on the PT. Even for there, it was a bit harsh
