The Guardian

"In 2025, as the Trump administration echoes those people [determined to preserve a government that discriminates], celebrations of Juneteenth are being cut back or even canceled. Corporate sponsors and local governments, as well as the national government, are pulling back their support for festivals and Juneteenth events."

Mirror [https://files.catbox.moe/bz5qq2.mp4] >We arrange a “Shahedopad” for the enemy 💥 > >Since mid-spring, we have begun providing the Drone Drop units with the means to shoot down the Shaheds and have launched the same mysterious countdown on the website. Thanks to the pilot batch of interceptors from the Foundation, 17 Shahed UAVs and over 30 Gerber UAVs — a cheaper analogue of the Shahed — have already been destroyed. > >It’s not much, but our experience shows that the path from a few downed drones per week to several hundred per month is real. So it’s time for “Dronepad” to take on “Shahedas” 😈 > >For over two and a half years, the Russians have been terrorizing Ukraine, killing, maiming, and destroying, in particular, with the help of these strike UAVs. We have a working, tested solution, we have the necessary experience, and we know how to fight them. The matter remains with your support, because shooting down the shaheeds requires more expensive solutions. https://t.me/savelifeua/3737 [https://t.me/savelifeua/3737]

Windows 10 users, take note! Microsoft is pushing hard for Windows 11 adoption, with free security updates ending on October 14, 2025. Paid updates will be available until October 2026, but it's time to think about alternatives. Linux is a great option, offering a Windows-like experience with robust security and a vast developer community.
