... rodents(mice) where the #1 threat to ballistic missiles. The future missile force officers were taught in one of their classes that missile silos should be kept mice free, because mice like to snack on insulation covering wires in all those 50-100 wire cables.
May be because the only Microsoft product line I (ever) like(d) is the MS mice. (I lied, I really liked MS Word in 1988 after trying out Word Perfect, but stayed with LaTeX anyway)
I read it and now I wonder why it was rated as troll(-1). The only trolling frase in the entire post is the unfare reference to the "Ukranian stupidity"
You should have replied to the post you critique or, at least reference it. The quote is outrageous -- being Russian I am supposed to go along with bashing of Ukraine, but, at the time, the plant was controlled by the central goverment (read "federal", if you are in US). One of the problem was that the plant was transferred from the "Sredmach"(Official name for the nucs ministry) ministry(committee, if you are in US) to the Energy ministry which was dominated/controlled by people who were well informed about power generation and turbines, and not enough about nuclear reactors.
Forgot to mention that the other FAD is that the hydro-power plants are nice. I wish someone did the estimate of how many people had to evacuate from the "disaster area" and how many species of fish went extinct.
I've wrote "I do refer to Chernobyl' power plant operators" with Chernobyl' in the proper Cyrillic script and dot-slash posting code ate the alien writing.
One of the biggest FUDs of the XX-iest century -- "nuclear reactors are inherently dirty". The truth is that the coal power plant throws more radioactive material into the environment per unit of produced power, then you'll find contained in the solid concentrated nuclear waste from the properly operated nuclear power plant. When I said "properly operated" I meant reactors operated by sane and rule-oriented people who do not switch off safety dead-switches in order to experiment with a with the exiting "toy" they control (yes, I do refer to power plant operators).
Politics: If you want to call Chechen (and "volunteers" from the Arab countries) rebels "freedom fighters, please use the same when you refer to guys who blew up World Trade Center and those who blew up Oklahoma State Building.
ISS construction: Two out of three ISS modules currently up there are Russian made (Unity[USA],Zarja[Russia],Zvezda[Russia]). NASA never had a space station in operation (Skylab was a flop), while USSR and, then, Russia were running two (Saljut and, then, Mir) and for a very long time. Result is that Russia is the only one of all ISS partners that has all "know-how", and it should not come as a surprise that the most important modules are made by Russia.
Trolling: Russian airspace engineers are the best, just consider work conditions they had to put up with all those years.
I was lazy and had not downloaded the source code while it was there. Is there any way to get it now? PS. If you are afraid to make it public, my email is sipan@mit.edu

Why am I not even compelled to try it out?

Please fix the factual error - Tatarstan is neither tiny (it is bigger then Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania) or independent.

Is my operating system supported? NO

Is my web browser supported? NO
Its name is a joke already. Most of the people called it simply "Zapor"(Constipation)
Sounds like it is too different from Googl's algorithm of using cross links as votes.
Zvezda(rus) - Star
Baikonur(turkic) - ????
Kazakh-stan(turkic) - Kazakh country (also Paki-stan, Afgani-stan, Yanki-stan)
