007 First Light's secret best character was a perfect way for IO Interactive to celebrate British writing and "restrained emotion"

IO Interactive has shared more development insight about arguably the stand-out character in 007 First Light: James Bond's mentor figure, John Greenway.

Лучшие российские VPS/VDS-хостинги в 2026 году: сравниваем популярные конфиги. Часть 2

Привет, Хабр!До этого я сравнивал интересные мне хостинги примерно раз в год — не видел смысла делать это чаще.

А именно, в комментариях вполне ожидаемо спросили «а где остальные крупные игроки?», да и в личку написало несколько представителей компаний с предложением протестировать их услуги.
