"We have a cruise missile at home."

It should be ok, oil infrastructure is usually pretty far from schools and hospitals, Israels preferred targets.

The first creator I ever supported on patreon, still do. I really like the chill style and cool retro gear and projects. Knowing the collection of stuff he has, I hope his house isn't too bad off, that would be really tough in addition to the property damage.

My read on what he and others were concerned about was that DA Origins introduced an aesthetic of low fantasy, dark and medieval themes. Many felt, including him, that the new characters felt like very generic MOBA-style designs that didn't feel particularly at home in the DA world they hoped to see. Since some channels have gotten to play the game now the outlook seems to be changing with some creators saying the trailers and released material did a poor job of showing the overall art direction. Also, it seems fun, that helps. Keep in mind, a healthy concern over Bioware is very warranted these days.

Given that the attack seemed to be executed through chemically modified batteries, and given the scale of the sabotage it is one of the most sophisticated terrorist actions we've seen. That said, it is unlikely that this could extend beyond the type of state sponsored terrorism shown here. It doesn't seem feasible that a smaller organization would be able to compromise a supply chain on this level. That said, Israel isn't the only terrorist state that could look to sow chaos with these tactics glares at Russia

"Oh no, how will we avoid offending the genocidal butcher?" Wrings hands

The key here is that this funding is for Ukrainian defense industry, it already has weapons systems capable of striking deep behind Russian lines. The US simply isn't going to budge on allowing western weapons to be used, their policy is looking towards relationship reset following the end of hostilities, they don't want Russia to lose since that could start a more prolonged cold war and period of instability. Ukraine will need to use it's own systems, fortunately it is becoming more and more capable by the month.

This is from memory so don't take it as fully accurate, but I believe Ukraine was something like the world's 6th largest arms manufacturer prior to the 2014 invasion of Crimea. They know how to make things go boom.

Huh, looks like falling out of a window might be a more legit way to go for Russians than I thought.

How shocking that this broad act of terrorism by the Israelis would prompt threats of terrorism in response. Nobody could have anticipated that.

I am visiting family in Porto, it's been quite apocalyptic.

Definitely one of the Russian platforms that had proven effective in it's intended role. The KA-52 fleet has taken a lot of casualties fortunately.

Statistically unlikely, there are very few in the country and they are being prioritized for air defence. Missions like this are far more high risk and after the early loss of an F-16 there will be no rush to expose them to front line conditions.
