      Obviously this justifies ten hundred gobaillion nuclear ICBMs to Russia stat. Because you know Russians are bad enough, but a handful of DPRK soilders? Game over man! Game over!

      Washington War room is running low on daipers. Cabinet members passing out in their own PISS and SHIT during briefings of a few train cars in the general direction 4,000km away. Intel rooms at DIA running on critically low levels of Mountain Dew and our nacho cheese reserves.....good gawd - they had to break out the expired ghost pepper reserves scrapped from the bottom of defunct AMC theatres.

      that's MISTER Kong to you, sir. Dimsumdaily is his first name. Kong is his last name.

      and I'll have you know he wrote 3 of the top 10 Langley, VA Chamber of Commerce Christmas Newsletters since 1995.

    “Up to” means ≤

    Which means this headline is entirely correct and also entirely misleading. In the same way: “I have up to 10 million dollars in my bank account right now.”

    the 1860s: the UK sends a handful advisors to both sides of the American Civil War. it's useful to see how warfare in the current age, between near-peers, will be fought afterall

    Richmond Times-Dispatch: Britain may deploy up to 100,000 redcoats to support the Union in the war between the states!

      AI will default to uncanny valley faces that are unrealistically attractive because it's been trained on sets that don't include normal faces in them.

          There's some tells. That the face is free of blemishes, that it's got that slight vaseline-on-the-lens smoothing out, it says it's AI right under the photo, the cloth is a little off

    Even if they do, what's the big deal? North Korea is a sovereign country, they have the right to make their own decisions. Don't understand why western media is making big headlines from it.

    Honestly, I kinda hope it's true, so that the DPRK can learn from Russia and be prepared for when the west invades them again...

      Exactly. I wouldn't be surprised if they were trying to get direct battlefield experience while there's still an opening to, so that if they get invaded they won't be totally green.

    This news is extremely exaggerated. According to the same source, it's going to take them years to pull the train all the way there.

    I got a shot-chaser for everyone

    Here's the shot: zelensky says Ukraine are fighting whole swarms of human wave assaults of North Koreans like its World War Z

    Show

    After you feel the burn, pound down the chaser

    Show

    Radio Free CIA comes out swinging saying North Korean soldiers are just chilling right now

    I believe there have been 10 000 DPRK troops sent to Russia. Of course, that's an order of magnitude less than the headline.
