Honor them. Remember them. Ukrainian heroes never die.
Dmytro Kotsiubailo — “Da Vinci.”
A volunteer from the first days of the war. A commander respected even by generals.
The great-grandson of a UPA fighter — the spirit of freedom ran in his blood.
Wounded in battle, but he returned to the front.
He led the “Da Vinci Wolves” — one of the most effective assault units in Ukraine’s Armed Forces.
The first volunteer ever awarded the title Hero of Ukraine while still alive.
Killed in the battle for Bakhmut on March 7, 2023.
Awarded the People’s Hero of Ukraine honor.
Buried at Askold’s Grave in Kyiv.
He gave his life for Ukraine.
Honor all who fight — and all who gave their lives for our freedom.

Excluding GTA Vice City Stories and GTA Online, Rockstar are genuinely horrible at incorporating useage for money into their games.
GTA Vice City and San Andreas' use for money is pretty much for buying safehouses only, since a lot of the weapons can be directly picked up from enemies.
Bully, you only spend money on clothes, because weapons and health pickups are easily found around the map anyway
GTA 3, LCS, IV and EFLC you legit don't have anything to spend money on outside guns. No car mods, no properties.
In RDR1, I don't remember using money at all outside of that one mission where you buy a deed to a property.
GTA V, you have car mods, yep, but that's about it, you can buy properties and get income from them, but it's all useless because you can't even enter like 90% of them. Lester's stock market assassinations are only really used to speed up that 100% completion.
Now, VCS and Online did it right, when you buy a business, you can either reinvest your earnings into making your businesses stronger or put the money earned towards expanding into other properties, or in GTA Online's case, you can put it towards upgrading your weapons and vehicles so you can make yourself "stronger" (ie MK2 weapons, armored vehicles like the Nightshark etc)

1,600 miles in pretty much one go.
Each of these 4 pictures were taken in different states. Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, and Mississippi.
Filled the tank about 5 times.
Now I sleep in the back of the Fit.




ٍ@horsepower
And they said that 1,000 miles in a day was impossible.
