Here is our regular update that explains what we have been working on for the past two weeks. This should allow average users to keep up with development, without reading Github comments or knowing how to program.

Propaganda leaflets dropped by Ukrainian drones over places where North Korean soldiers are hiding or moving in the Kursk region.

As we can see, Ukrainian UAV operators are aiming not only at the heads of DPRK mercenaries, but also at their new phobias - in the form of drones.

At the same time, giving them a choice: to surrender, escape from this horror and get a chance at a new life, or to die ingloriously and inevitably from an FPV drone or cluster munition.

Translation of the inscription: "Don't die in vain! Surrender is the way to survive."

When train carriages were returned to Poland’s state-owned railway company, it emerged that five pallets of mines were missing.

Onet reported that the missing mines were carried on a civilian carriage through several Polish cities, including Szczecin, Poznań, Warsaw and Białystok, over the course of nearly two weeks. They were eventually located near Orla, a village in northeastern Poland, inside a warehouse belonging to furniture giant IKEA.

From the Kyiv community, I handed over to the fighters of the Third Assault Brigade a modernly equipped mobile school for training in FPV drone control.

As part of the city program “Defender of Kyiv”, the KP “Autotransport Enterprise of the City of Kyiv” implemented such a project for the first time — it renovated and converted an old MAZ bus into a mobile school.

The uniqueness of the bus lies in the autonomy of the equipment thanks to a powerful generator. This allows the training center to function anywhere without a stationary power grid.

Comfortable conditions were created inside: 9 workplaces, a sofa, a large TV for demonstrating educational materials, a coffee machine and a mini-kitchen.

The project was implemented in several stages, since the bus was not new at all. The metal structure was completely replaced, the electrical system was updated, and the design was performed. Artists painted the bus, and the furniture and branded materials were made to order.

We continue to help our defenders!

Glory to Ukraine and its Heroes!

Summary

Historian Nicole Hemmer discussed Donald Trump’s strategy of exploiting tragedies for political gain, labeling it part of a broader right-wing effort to sow division.

Hemmer noted Trump’s pattern of politicizing disasters, from Hurricane Maria to the California wildfires, to attack political opponents and promote conspiracy theories.

This tactic is linked to a media environment that thrives on outrage and a conservative ecosystem that weaponizes anger for electoral gains.

This approach degrades public life, fosters animosity, and amplifies societal despair.

I'm not a programmer, so I can't really do it myself. Is it allowed for me to go to some random dude, pay him 20 bucks to write the code, then have him add it to the GitHub?

(If you're wondering what the app/feature is, I want to be able to shuffle play on the findroid app like you would be able to on the jellyfin web interface )
