Our developers on the stream use Ubuntu... this is probably wrong spelling as I still have to look it up every time I refer to it. So when I'm lazy I just say Utbununununu. I've got both of them doing it now.

I hear some German notes when trying to pronounce it
Yeah, sometimes its a wonder who they come up with some names thinking its catchy and all

This shouldn’t be surprising at all. Russia isn’t the first or last society to put expendable prisoners to use.

If you’ve been locked up an extended time, any reason to get out sounds good.

We don't do this in the US anymore but back in the day you would sometimes have the option of enlisting in the military instead of going to prison/jail.

A five-time murderer who was freed from a Russian jail to join the war against Ukraine has been posthumously decorated by Vladimir Putin.

Ivan Neparatov, 34, was one of thousands of jail inmates recruited to fight in Russia's savage war.

He had served almost half of a 25-year sentence for multiple murders when he joined the pro-Putin Wagner private army and was posted to the frontline in Ukraine.
The Russian Medal of Honor will be awarded to the relatives of Ivan Neparatov, a soldier under contract with the Wagner private military company. He was supposed to serve a 25-year prison term, but he was taken from prison to fight in Ukraine, where he literally laid down his head: it was blown off by a shell.

What was Ivan Neparatov in jail for? It seems that three people owed him money, each less than 10,000 rubles ($130). He was offended and killed them.

Another time Ivan Neparatov asked his neighbor to drive him and his friends to the house of a Sergiev Posad entrepreneur so he could rob her. When the neighbor did not like the idea, Neparatov was offended and, together with his friends, stabbed him 88 times. They then robbed the businesswoman and also strangled her.

He acted valiently against Ukrainians — and remarkably three years before Euromaidan, foreseeing the development of geopolitical events! Actually, to be precise he acted bravely against one Ukrainian, a foreman. When he found out that he had been given an advance of 176,000 rubles (about $3,000), he got together some friends and liberated the money from him. The man was lucky Neparatov didn’t kill him.

These acts put Ivan Neparatov in jail for 25 years. But he was not destined to serve out his sentence. Recruiters from the Wagner private military company (identified by several publications considered to be foreign agents in Russia) rescued him from prison 13 years before the end of his term so that he could show his contempt for human life on the battlefield. He was killed. He received the Medal of Honor posthumously from President Putin.

His death certificate shows he was killed in early August in Artemovsk, Donetsk region by a 'gunshot explosive shrapnel penetrating wound to the head'.
Olga Romanova, of Russia Behind Bars, said in some prisons up to 20 per cent of the jail populations have been recruited.
'Approximately 20% of the prison population is recruited - if there are 1,300 people in prison, 300 are recruited,' she said.
'They are not taken out all at once.
'They take out several squads of 50-60 people at a time.'
The convicts are given two weeks cursory training before being sent to the frontline to take on the Ukrainian army.

If this is true, I look at it as a good opportunity for him to die in a freezing weather while wounded. Slowly and without hope to make it out of there

There are over 2 million off duty cops in Brazil, think again.

Brazil Military budget is 20 billions , US almost 800. Soooo I didn't mean to send them there with plastic toys lol Rather as a US war machine unit where you get what you want, having 800 billions behind your back that would probably include a fucking laser strike from Pluto

You are also forgetting they have Capybaras, the soldiers will forget what they are doing and just giggle at them while half naked carnival women slit their throats.
