Drone strikes on Amazon Web Services facilities this week in the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain highlight the vulnerability of cloud facilities — prominent symbols of US tech power in the region and hard to defend against air attack.

No power, and no idea when it’ll return. russia launched a large-scale strike on Ukraine’s power grid, damaging major thermal plants and high-voltage lines.

Are you still here? Still listening to the story of genocide?

Greetings from Kyiv,
where it’s -15 °C (-24…-26 expected tonight).

According to the mayor, about 1,000 high-rise buildings are still without heating.
Ours isn’t among them, the heat is low but at least it’s there.

This is our reality. Ukrainians freezing in their homes.

Up 21-3 and you lose.

I think Matt LaFleur is a really good coach, but at a certain point all of the self-owning this team does is a reflection fo the HC.
