If Ukraine likes Johnson and Truss so much they’re quite welcome to take them off our hands. I bet they’d rather have a few dozen Starstreaks or something instead, though.

So they’re buying back their armaments from 40 years ago.

deliver it to the Russian Armed Forces “more or less in one piece,”

With terms like that, the Russian military will never pay off that reward. “Yes, Private Ivanovich, we know you risk your life and lose arm to capture robot tank, but see here: bolt is missing. Most regrettable. No rubles for you!”

A minor, but interesting comment on the ICANN timezone mailing list (also a bit stale, the news are from August 11th, but I updated the package yesterday :sweat_smile: ):

Rename Europe/Kiev to Europe/Kyiv, as “Kyiv” is more common in
English now. Spelling of other names in Ukraine has not yet
demonstrably changed in common English practice so for now these
names retain old spellings, as in other countries (e.g.,
Europe/Prague not “Praha”, and Europe/Sofia not “Sofiya”).
