Cheers always interesting with data points.
We started our company in part because the pay was just not getting any higher over the years whilst everything else was getting more expensive (obviously). Think i made about the same cash 4 years ago as i did 25 years ago when i started out as a courier (well somewhere around there, whos counting years..) So i quit 4 years ago and started a new company with the idea that couriers could and should make a decent living.
We basically started knocking doors and adapted / invented as we moved along with more customers. Took us about a year and a half or similar to get up to the same pay as we had where i left. Now i think we are closing in on doubling that even for the couriers who were not involved in the start up process.
Its hard but fun work to be a courier and if you can live off it i have no complaints really. Now if you cant even pay rent thats a different story, nobody likes to work hard for nothing in return at least not for long.

Im not so sure Nato would want to say it was a russian missile even if it was as long as it was a misstake by russia rather than an attack (which it ofc was not). Puts the whole thing so much closer to a direct conflict between russia and nato. A lot easier for everyone if idd it was a ukr launched missile, which there is a good chance it was anyways.
Maybe ukr is not onboard with everything nato? i mean for them im not so sure a potential escalation with nato and russia would be such a bad thing.

I dont care much for musk, he seems eh not a great person. Regardless i can see why he thinks someone else should pay for it rather than his company. I dont know any other international companies that are donating that kind of cash indefinetly. But maybe there is im im just not aware. But the point that governments should be the ones covering the bills for such services seem reasonable rather than a privately owned company.

So many variables i would think. Who is doing the training, How is it set up and what facilities and equipment are available during the training etc etc. I can see how ukrainians who are desperate to learn anything as fast as possible and put in overtime to save their lives and their country and even get to go to a different country to train and come back would learn a great deal more over the same period of time than a guy who does not want to be there and feels he struck out beeing draftet (not that the ukrainians want to be there either..) and feels the war and his duty is completely bonkers and that he has no business doing what he is asked to do.

A swedish "expert" i heard say that 5 month was probably a good enough time to get a good operating force but its going to vary ofcourse. His thoughts were that these rectruits now that are beeing sent in without proper traininig would do little to change the situation but speculated that russia could have reasonably trained forces to put in after the winter.

Loss of momentum i guess plus russia will have a lot of time to reinforce their possitions.
Right now they are in shambles it seems but russia is still a big country with a lot of recorces. I dont think one can just assume they will not train a lot of recruits well just because thats not happening this very minute. On the other hand ukraine will likely have even more modern weapons by spring (one would hope) and that could be difficult for the russians to overcome even with huge manpower and ”proper” training

If the front derailleur limit screw is set before the shifter will engage and lock the "click" the shifter will only move the derailleur until its forced to stop by the limit screw and then fall back since its not enough to engage it to that possition. If thats the case you need to back out the limit screw on the front derailleur.
If there is no tension on the cable why would it click into the big ring?
