Pretty sure the allies blew it to bits.

They could have built so many reasonably sized artillery pieces for the cost of building that piece of shit and building the double railway lines to get it to the front. And all it could do was hit with about the same force as an aircraft dropped bomb.
Germany lost WW2 because it invested big in super weapons and in besieging cities. For all it's expensive turbo-pumps and complicated machinery and alloys all the V2 could do was blow up London three or so houses at a time. Hardly noticeable. And Russian doctrine even says that Germany lost due to Kyiv, Stalingrad and Leningrad. Cities give a massive advantage to the defender. As a result the Russians try to avoid going into cities, with exceptions like Mariupol.
Von Braun even had a saying about the whole thing, that man was the only thing that could be easily mass produced with unskilled labour. No matter how many people you kill, it better be worth it.

there are lots of reasons lost, the biggest one is probably Hitler tweaking like a maniac and overriding his commanders for no good reason

I've been thinking about what would have happened if I died years ago, would I have been happy with the way I'd lived? What mistakes am I still making? What's important and what isn't? I know I overthink, am neurotic, live in my head, am a hypochondriac and have blindspots. I didn't even know what my family thought of me until recently and it changed everything. Small things can change everything. Right now I'm wondering is it okay to give up thinking and just be? Something I've realised is I'm okay being alone, that if I was at the end of my life I wouldn't want to do anything but be with myself and just think. I'm wondering if there's any point in thinking since I forget so many thoughts/think the same things daily/they aren't important and don't change anything. It's why I hate philosophy. I'm not happy with the way I've lived because I've always been a perfectionist and life isn't perfect, I know I am attractive to other people but I've always hated something about my appearance and forever wanted a nose job until the orthodonist said it was straight. A small thing that changed everything. I don't want to live hating myself. I'm wondering how long I want to live unto because if I'm not comfortable with my appearance now what am I going to be like in five years. I've been getting botox since I was 22 and have had dermal fillers so it will only get worse. I don't know what the point is. I don't want to contribute to humanity because I hate people. I know I'm not getting married. The only reason I go on is because of my dad, everything he did was for me so I feel pressured to have a child if I'm all he has to show for his life. I also have to be there for my nephew. Right now I'm trying to study for something I have no passion for. What's bothering me is you can feel bad about things you're not consciously thinking about. I'm trying hard not to hate people like Cam saying he found so many of our pics/vids when he has a girlfriend and blanked me for weeks. Mik is just waiting for me to come back, that's all he has to do because he'll always be there and people will disappoint me eventually. Just scumbags.

Okay so someone on Fetlife said they're also looking for cinema/restaurant dates. This could end up horrible like I could end up hating him, but I am up for an adventure and wouldn't mind going to the sinny with a stranger.
