Based on every past war in human history that I’m aware of, I think you should expect to learn that some of the inspiring stories of Ukrainian bravery in the face of overwhelming odds don’t hold up under full scrutiny.

There has been some, er, recent experience with an isolated, conspiratorial, norm-flouting, questionably rational nuclear-armed world leader.
But Trump was to a significant extent contained and managed by his own administration and Putin apparently is not.

I know it's a hoax and all, but I still think it's weird that Paul Manafort took a leave of absence from his job as a pro-Kremlin political consultant working in Ukraine to serve as Donald Trump's unpaid campaign manager.

This is actually a big deal cause afaik Russia has zero domestic ability to produce x86 processors. They have the Elbrus line which are x86ish compatible binary translation, but I doubt they could run Windows 10 at an acceptable level.
