We can use verification mountain dew cans. No big deal.

Sadly, the Sicilians and Marians definitely did not regain power after Pompey said that to them. They did get purged though.

So the starlink simulators its deploying right now are empty platters that will burn up in the atmosphere from what I understand. Next missions they’ll be real statlink sats. Are these different than regular sats? It sounds like they’re able to handle more bandwidth but I don’t know.

It’s not worse for you personally. The US government can request and use warrants for information collected by all of those entities.

The US cannot request information on Chinese citizens in China because US companies are restricted from operating in China. They don’t have any significant data.

On the other hand China now has a very valuable and large presence in tiktok here in the US and can access any collected information it wants on Chinese citizens in the US and any other user. I imagine it doesn’t take a warrant either but I’m unfamiliar with their protocols.

So it’s likely not worse for you personally, especially if you’re a typical American who is unsupportive of their government and its foreign policy.

Businesses/commerce/trade have never been “free”. I’m not sure why this keeps being used as a rebuttal. These topics are covered in basic macroeconomics classes in the United States.

Absolutely fantastic game. Remember to have a pen and paper ready for the long game. And after you lose a couple times you can search for the walkthrough (try without it at least once)

Earthling is slower than Ilwrath which can also fan out the flame thrower and destroy incoming missiles. Alliance should follow up with Shofixti after the Earthling is destroyed by Ilwrath.
