Greenland defeats cyberforces by installing a curb.

Robert Evans (the Only Robert Evans) @iwriteok.bsky.social · Feb 12

U.S. forces land on Greenland's coast, spearheaded by units of Cybertanks. they make it three quarters of a mile before the cold weather drains their batteries. crews find themselves trapped inside when the fully electronic doors default to locked. most of the 70th Armored regiment starves to death

Uff, not terribly shocking we're just learning. So sad and unnecessary for them to be forced to go through that.

Twice the rate of suicide as in the general population…
Admittedly burning out people faster than they can bring in new people.
