Ukrainian crews say the fundamental problem is that the Abrams were built for advances aided by air power and artillery, which Ukraine lacks.
Russia, meanwhile, continues to make heavy use of drones in its attacks, which the Abrams struggle to defend against.
Just finished V Rising. I really liked it. For those who don’t know and are curious, it’s one of those games where, if you can’t beat a boss, you just have to get better. There’s some small things that make a fight easier, but it basically comes down to you understanding the enemy and learning to play better.
No particular order, but it seems I hit quite a few different genres.
From the article:
When it comes to performance, the RM1 serves as the brand’s entry-level offering with a hub motor dishing out an approachable 3 kW (about 4 horsepower) of nominal output. The motor peaks out at 4.4 kW, or about 5.8 horsepower, and delivers a top speed of 45 miles per hour. Depending on how you spec it, the RM1 promises anywhere from 40 to 80 miles on a single charge. Quite a lot of range of an urban runabout. At $6,495 USD, it’s quite the expensive runabout, but it makes up for it with its classy styling.
As for the RM1S, it’s packing more than double the power at 7 kW (9.4 ponies) nominal and 10.5 kW (14 horsepower) max, so not only is it quicker, with a top speed of 70 miles per hour, it’s also surely much more fun to ride for folks craving the performance of a small-displacement ICE motorcycle. 80 miles of range on a single charge is also pretty decent, considering its fairly light 293-pound weight figure. For double the performance of the RM1, you’ll have to fork up quite a hefty $8,995 USD for the RM1S.
Maeving’s plans of entering the US have been circulating for nearly a year now, with the brand’s first announcement in March 2023. It was initially eyeing a late-2023 launch, but it seems its entry stateside was delayed by a couple of months.
Shogun season 1. It was really well made.
Heard they were green lit for 2 more seasons. Unfortunately, it seems the first season was based on a book and there’s no book to base the next 2 seasons on.
There is history, but I’ve become very hesitant about shows that outrun their books (ex. GoT). So, hopefully they are the same quality, but not betting on it.
