Wether they actually reach those numbers is another q' as the export ban was due to shortages IIRC. But that's minor details I guess

Since we slurp a half million tons of diesel per day, I'm not certain how much this would impact prices, even if Russia manages to make that number.No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.Comment

Prices are set globally. So i would estimate diddly squat except maybe in logistics costs (if shipping to the US is cheaper than wherever it was going to go otherwise). And this assumes the diesel actually goes to the US and doesn't get openly traded.Originally posted by The Mad Monk View Post
Whoever was going to get that diesel (on paper or physical delivery) will have to look elsewhere, raising the global price ever so slightly, which in turn raises the prices in the US just enough on the rest of its supply sources to offset any lowering of prices resulting from the supply coming from Russia.
If you want prices to move, you have to increase global supply (or put in controls to distort the market), not just move the deck chairs around in the free market.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

Only real winner is Russia, as they can sell it on the open market using the US financial system (i.e. USD) without their funds getting frozen or having to use shadow tactics to avoid detection.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

Sooo... Russia won then? 🤔🤷
The diesel apocalypse was set in motion a long time ago, but few people truly realise the magnitude of its effects yet...
Sucks to own a diesel vehicle 😂
Actually, sucks to own anything other than an EV right about now... 😇"Aha, you must have supported the Iraq war and wear underpants made out of firearms, just like every other American!" LoinburgerComment

I dunno, I own a bicycle and don't think it sucks. It even keeps me fit, using it to go to places. I think it's pretty neat. I considered an E-Bike, but decided against, since I don't have to travel that far and the terrain is pretty flat here.Originally posted by I AM MOBIUS View PostIndifference is BlissComment

I was thinking more of cars etc., but yeah 👍
But it just so happens the vast majority of my day to day travel is walking or cycling, as I live a 10 minute walk from the city centre, a 10 minute cycle ride from work. 🙂
That said, I often prefer taking the train on longer distances, as it's just... nicer...
BUT, when I do need to use my car, it's an EV 😇
If you can afford an EV these days, driving anything else has been dumb for a few years already..."Aha, you must have supported the Iraq war and wear underpants made out of firearms, just like every other American!" LoinburgerComment

Is it just me, or does Zelenskyy always seem singularly ungrateful to the overwhelming NATO support his country receives on a daily basis.
He's moaning again...
All he ever does is ****ing moan.
Maybe he shouldn't have been tricked by the US into making an enemy of Russia in the first place... 🤷"Aha, you must have supported the Iraq war and wear underpants made out of firearms, just like every other American!" LoinburgerComment

Zelensky asked for ammo when Russia attacked Ukraine, Putin hid in his bunker when Prigo marched on Moscow.BlahComment
