Our army picked well with those canned items, that company makes solid meals, very edible, tastes fine. He did right to add salt, because they lack in that for my taste, especially compared to some other canned food, which are full of sodium.
The weird packet of seasoning is tomato soup. I laffed a bit when he added to the mix, but actually fits the flavor since both those meals can (and probably does) contain tomato. And paprika.
The liver pate is also fine.

From the titles he covers interesting topics. I don't know about the actual content. His accent is almost insufferable for me.

I watched this about the Chinese siege of the Russian held Albazin and it was okay. He compares Chinese and European fortification - he seemed do well -, and tried to explain why Chinese siege practices different, why they evolved differently - here he failed, he did not make it clear the insertion of the sponsored content was also unfortunate.

This one here he compares the longbow with the crossbow.
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=dO_8ZQ37D4Y
https://youtube.com/watch?v=dO_8ZQ37D4Y
At not one point he mentions that longbow was used by folks in a limited geographical area: the dudes on the Small Island, and even there it was a Welsh weapon, who levied longbow troops to the English kings as their liege lord. It wasn't like:
> I'm Henry the XXIInd
> I have Londonum
> and now I'll raise 2000 longbowmen here
> click
Continental Europe did not manufacture and use longbows. They had "bows" and that's it. Crossbows were superior to that. It's just bows could be used by any levied peasant. They had that at home. They hunted in the communal used woods with 'em, or poached in their liege lord's forest.
He has such a twisted Anglo view.

 >>/52370/
I regularly see that channel be recommended to me, I don't remember if I have watched anything they made or not. There are many channels that look like that and I don't really watch them so it's hard to tell them apart.

Russian's aren't really European.

Longbows are good weapons, they are fast firing and powerful so they can cut down cavalry charges by shooting the horses out from under them.
It's more about culture than anything else, the English had a culture of Archery that Europe didn't. Villages and towns had communal archery grounds that people would gather at to practice, kind of like a sport or a social venue(The king also made this longbow practice mandatory at some point).

The French did have Scottish long bowman fight for them and they also tried implementing an English style of training for archers where they got villages to train with them and made them liable to be called up in times of war. I don't know if these French Longbowmen were ever used in combat though.

I found a Wikipedia article on the French archers I was talking about.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franc-archer

It says they were archers and does not actually say they were Longbowman though but I think they probably were. And the Book that I read about it in the first place said they were Longbowmen(War Bows by Mike Loades, which is currently being used to raise up my computer monitor).

 >>/52371/
> Russian's aren't really European.
But the fort they built at Albazin was.
> fast firing
Well they are fast as any other bow. The video examines the question of rate of fire and concludes, the rate of fire might have been largely irrelevant.
The longbowmen in European history had only any impact during the 100 Years War. Firearms already started to appear and the whole thing was gone. Btw there were battles, fought with the same setup, same tactics as Crécy, and the French knights won just fine, I can recall some from the Aquitane front, I can't be arsed to search for them.

 >>/52373/
I would say that rate of fire was hugely important, that's also what most things I have read say(such as the book I mentioned before). And it makes sense, an archer has a limited window to fire at oncoming cavalry before they close, he needs to do as much damage as possible in that window.

Longbowmen were also used by the Landsknecht, well it was something like a longbow I think it might have been even bigger but is seems like it was more of a speciality weapon and not many of them used it. They were used by the English in conflicts other than the 100 years was as well, for example they were quite successful in some battles against the Scottish. The Longbowmen would create weak points in formations of Scottish pikes and the English cavalry would charge in and exploit these weak points.

Yes, firearms made the longbow obsolete. That's probably why we don't hear much about French archers, they were introduced in 1448 so they were already probably too late. Apparently they did see some combat though.

 >>/52374/
The video argues that bows were a weapon to harass the enemy, to force them into action (an early charge for example) or withdrawal more than a weapon that used to kill (which were the crossbows). Bows were used throughout the whole battle.
He also claims. Also firing is quite tiring for the bowmen, so if not in the practical tests done recently they probably did not fire in rapid succession. He mentions the difficulty of supplying that many arrows too.
I think what isn't mentioned in the video (and which does not contribute to the individual rate of fire discussion much) is the importance of volleys, that archers and crossbowmen firing together a large number of missiles. Think of the recollection of the Persian incursions into the old Hellas. How it was noted that their arrows darkened the sky.
As for the ammo supply. There is some data how much arrows were fired by the Parthians at Carrhae. A lot ofc, brought by thousands of pack animals (I think they used camels for that). All right the Persia was larger military machine than Medieval England, but there was will they took enough arrows.

> They were used by the English in conflicts other than the 100 years was as well
Umm, those skirmishes barely larger than the clashes of football firms of '80s are don't count. I don't even know how are they part of military history at all.

Firerarms made pretty much any bows obsolete. The loud noises are better for posturing.

 >>/52376/
I can understand what he is saying and he isn't strictly wrong but what he is talking about refers more to cavalry archers than to Long-bowmen. Off the top of my head I can't really recall a battle that Longbowmen won by harassing a defending enemy to make them charge.

Whether Longbows or even crossbows were a weapon to kill or a weapon to harass is complicated given that the damage they both can do varies overtime as armour gets better and as crossbows get better and even as Longbows increase in draw weight. But most test have shown that neither can punch through plate armour. But the main advantage of the Longbow was that it shot the horses out from under enemy cavalry which caused a lot of chaos. Yes, shooting a longbow is exhausting, people like Mike Loades think that it would be a very fast but short and exhausting kind of event, they also don't think they would be shooting in volleys but instead each archer would be shooting as fast as he himself could. And that makes sense because there isn't much of a window for archers to shoot at an oncoming cavalry charge.

> Umm, those skirmishes barely larger than the clashes of football firms of '80s are don't count. I don't even know how are they part of military history at all.
There are some pretty major campaigns and wars as well, like wars against Scotland as mentioned but also the war of the roses and wars in Portugal and stuff. An English royal also brought an army that included many Longbowmen crusading alongside the Teutonic order and they did fairly well.

Google/youtube is wrecking Invidious.
Up till yesterday I could use at least for browsing channels. Then I used yt-dlp to dl the video and watch it locally. Now when I open a channel on an invidious instance I got 400 error...

Nitter is also down permanently. It was a third party service for using Twitter. It was really good too. Shame it died though.

 >>/52568/
These days I'm browsing videos on invidious, and use yt-dlp to get the video. But after a while I get error, apparently youtube limits the request rates, and I think their Invidious instance run out of it.
When that happens I use piped to browse. Problem is on pipe I don't see option to order videos. So the two platform has to be mixed depending on usecase, not to abuse invidious' limits...
Almost getting to the point when its just simpler to bite the bullet and suffer on the youtube.

There was one nitter instance that worked reliably. Was a short downtime when Musk got the 5 minutes and shut xtwitter in, but that's over.

Matt's parents having a rooster tiles wall at the stove/oven is based. Nice allegory of fire.

The fuck, DPA doesn't update his Odysee channel anymore! Last video is from 7 days ago...
If I remember correctly there is a service for youtube/odysee that yt videos can be pushed to Odysee as well. Did Google break this? They are fucking with ad blockers and frontends for a while, perhaps this is the result of their retardation.

Matt's ain't doing better. He says he'll try stuff. I guess doing something is better than just waiting. Keeps the morale up too.

Yewtube did not find today it when I searched for it by name, and ordered it "by channel". I got scared they took it down.

Seems like Real Reporter's channel was killed by youtube...
This is the interview with Konstantin by "Igor in Russia" - I don't know this guy's channel, never watched any of his videos.
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=3-ip1xe_AXA
https://youtube.com/watch?v=3-ip1xe_AXA
I haven't watched yet, but I think his channel got too "pro-Russia" to youtube's taste. He did some interviews with people too close to the Russian war machine.
I really enjoyed his Mali video and the "most nuked region in Russia" was very interesting.

 >>/54500/
This interview was done after he was banned:
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=iYqKEtBIu_U
https://youtube.com/watch?v=iYqKEtBIu_U
Between the two videos airing there's only 8 hours difference...
Also in this video they say the moved to ExTwitter. I opened that up and the user was banned there too.
He says he appealed on youtube, so they might revise but with the Twitter ban... where insane people never get banned someone has some real bone to pick with him.

Now they are killing off Some Ordinary Gamers.
What I'm gathering from one video, some video titles, and narrowcasts on extwitter:
> hurr durr he lied about being an engineeeeeeeeeeeer
> hurr durr he lied about having a dayjoooooooob
Do these guys wanna hire him or enjoy his videos.
He makes good content, occasionally touching important topics and his takes aren't moronic at all, and that's what matters for a youtuber.

What I suspect is that he recently really touched on some important topics. Namely the Epstein-Trump coverup, and the UK "But Think About The Children" censorship act.
Now it's all and fine when noone reads and hear people writing/talking about these issues, but he has over 3 million subscribers and each of his video is watched by some hundred thousand people. He has a reach.
This was watched by over 500K:
https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=ArXk6zdawVE
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=ArXk6zdawVE
https://youtube.com/watch?v=ArXk6zdawVE
Now they wanna silence him, so they dug up some dirt and started to disseminate it, miming outrage, and trying to public shame him. Which seems working, he did not published videos for a week now.

I wonder if his channel will be deleted.

 >>/54511/
Heh, his last video is about the dude who made awol suddenly - because oil companies wanna kill the guy.

 >>/54511/
New video. The hiatus made me curious.
Perhaps he was on holiday and payed some marketeers to keep up the hype.

> Why
For Russian propaganda/disinformation. Apparently in that time bunch of other Russian and related channels were shut down.  >>/54501/
I do not think he put disinformation up, however what he is doing can be considered as propaganda.
In general people don't know what is propaganda. Usually they equate them with lies, but that's not it. Usually propaganda is taking facts and put them in a light which is good for us or disadvantageous to our opponent. We want to get a message through so we repeat the same thing over and over. We might cherrypick from the facts. Etc. Most direct example of propaganda: marketing.
Disinformation is falsehood. And that's it.
Since Real Reporter makes videos out of Russian related topics, in the time of Ukrainian war there will be plenty of accusation that he is Kremlin tool.
The "pro-Ukrainian" they have little to do with actual pro-Ukrainianism, the last thing in their mind is the good of the Ukrainians... propaganda and disinformation groups will consider anything mildly factual about the Russians as propaganda, disinformation, or even psy-op. Questioning western narrative is a Russian psy-op. We have to believe that Ukraine is gloriously winning while Russia threatening NATO with invasion at the same time.
So yes. His channel showed the Russian side of things, the talked with Russian drone manufacturers, westerners who moved to Russia, Russian projects (like airplanes), and how the Russian economy is doing. For some in the West this is very dangerous. Maybe for nothing else but because showed that Russians are also humans. These days thinking this is also Kremlin-brainwashing...
