of course he was afraid of russian nuukes. this only prompted Ukrainian engineers to bypass use of starlink entirely and current sea drones, like the one used in second Kerch bridge strike, or these used against SIG tanker and Olenegorsky Gornyak landing ship use domestic technology only

Her music is not for me, but a lot of people are quite big fans, so I will have to take your word for that.

her music is also not for me, but listening critically to her last single appears to have damaged something deep inside my brain

the Mechanicus soundtrack fucking slaps! I really should hook the good amp up to my steam deck and do another playthrough soon
