    Also, not all England's fault. We crashed one of them.

    What you hope they don't see you hope they don't shoot at.... I'd rather trust AEGIS and SM-2s....

    They have always been junk since you guys bought them. The RN must have been laughing about "Those suckers" after selling them....

    But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
    Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

    Just wait and see when they discover massive amounts of expensive natural resources that are just sitting there. So there is a good possibility of making a shit ton of money.

    It relied on speed, not stealth, to survive though.
