Social Credit is real, yo. Particularly, networking with people who have the discretionary funds to spend on expensive equipment.

Yes, invading a nuke-holding country is the best way to win a war. JFC
Don't apologize. You're the one-in-ten, at best, that my "list of random bullshit"-approach had the intended effect on. I appreciate you.
Only at the local gay bar. Usually involves more new friends than cigarettes, when I most need nicotene and to be reminded what an awful person I am.
No need to worry about ground-based Russian Anti-Air if you're staying away from territory under Russian control. If the Su-34's Air2Air capabilities were much good, we wouldn't be here reading/discussing OP's post.
Stealth(F-35 "stealth" anyways) ain't shit versus Russia's ground-based assets. It's use in an all-out invassion would be more down to its beyond-the-horizon capabilities, if they even served well there. Try to keep up.
Seriously though, Russia, and Russian territory, are sooo not the match-up you want for the F-35, no matter how much of the complex's Kool-Aide you've drank. This isn't the war, not even the right hemisphere, that it was designed for.
Nah. I'm the guy they wrote the "civilian use of weapons of mass destruction" law for. At least according to how they used it against this poor bastard(my personal hero, minus he did it for free).
Me? I would have to plead guilty. Yes, your honor, I fired it because I could, and there was money involved. Why are we wasting time sending me to jail when we could be pointing me at randos you don't like over some oil or whatever?
TL;DR: I would never be charged.
What on God's Green Earth are you talking about? I hack electronics. Okay, mostly, I fix them, but I thought this community was about electronics. I said in my first comment I would enjoy completing this captcha, so why would I hack the forum that supposedly uses it?
Is "these forums" the name for some cool new russian tamagotchi clone or soviet calculator clone or digital slavick bird call? Then, for hacking purposes, you might have caught my interest. Still wouldn't learn the language though. Yes, I was already well aware that translators can generally handle cyrillic.
Personally, I would rather hack it, copy/paste, and talk to whoever would be willing to communicate with me about it in English. I said niche interest, but that wasn't about the time I'm willing to sink into a given project. Learning Russian would be investing months to save hours from an electronics perspective.
Rather let my desire to travel and communicate with a given group of people in person dictate what languages I might study and in what order.
More like, you're the ideal operator. I would do it for you though. I would do unholy things in order to have the honor of firing this thing at some Russian tanks, even if I could never tell my friends exactly what I did without offending them.
Fuck, now I need a cigarette.
Wait, did you think you had to convince me I'm missing out?
That said, I'm still not learning Russian any time soon. There's at least a dozen other languages I would rather learn first, and at least a hundred other countries I would rather visit first, my niche interests be damned.
A few websites I've found claim it is trending in India, so let's hope so? Nadira seems to be common and popular enough already.
You're splitting hairs on the difference between violating a country's territory and threatening its existance, and since you need it spelled out, they aren't just any nuke-holding country. They are one of a few that has the capability to wipe all life on earth even if their targets never returned fire, but please, do go on about how going gloves-off at them "by proxy" is such a great idea.
You'll have better luck convincing Russia to back down by diplomatic means than you will convincing NATO to do what you are suggesting. That's how stupid of an idea it is.
