Mine are four zero's, but I ain't gonna tell you in what order they need to be.

I do hope there's nothing nuclear about your luggage - For 20 Years the Nuclear Launch Code at US Minuteman Silos Was 00000000

Something the Constitution should deal with but doesn't: If Trump accepts bribes for pardons, will those pardons still be constitutional, legal, and binding?

Likely they would be legal but people would likely not consider them legitimate.

LOL Trump is fundraising in Georgia over the January runoff election, but he's not even giving the money to the actual candidates

I was just concerned there were so many people here still using matched luggage. What is this, 1975?

Sadly, my local distant cousin is convinced that biden will destory the country and that twitler 'has done so much for this country'. It is taking a lot to avoid going 'A friend of mine died last night because of him - I suppose that's doing a lot for the country - kill off all those poor souls who have the bad luck to be poor, or in bad health.

I had he stuff unfollowed, but FB ignores that and so I got to see a Twitler facebook post on my fucking feed.

According to former President Ilves,

President Ilves: Think of it as finding out someone has been in your computer and accessed your most intimate and private stuff and all your medical records, all your bank accounts, your passwords, friends’ and kids’ addresses … you don’t know what they have or might do but you do know they have accessed the stuff you never want known—except we’re talking about a country with 330 million people.

Claire: That’s bad.

President Ilves: When you realize that Solar Wind managed data transfer for DoE and Treasury, you basically crap your pants.

The Cosmopolitan Globalists: Can we print that?

President Ilves: Strictly speaking, according to the legal definition, this is not an attack. We haven’t yet seen any damage. Definitionally, it’s a “penetration.” But we know they’ve got into the system. Now any minute we could have an attack. The data may have been copied. They might they have my medical records; they could change my blood type. ANY F*CKING MINUTE the attack could begin--anything from turning the traffic lights in New York, Chicago, Washington, and Los Angeles green at 5:00 p.m. on the last evening of Friday shopping before Christmas. to making the nuclear reactors melt down and turning the missiles into scrap metal.

From the article it is mostly a thankless fundraising job, and [my guess] probably more appropriate for people without souls or empathy. The very subject can, over time, suck the life out of you.

Knowing the caliber of the people close to whazisname, they probably won't even show up to work.

Well, ehhh. Changing blood type is doable, but nobody's going to be able to trigger a nuclear reactor meltdown or "turn missiles into scrap metal" via a cyber attack, because nuclear reactor control systems and missile launch systems aren't connected to the internet.

The real threat of a DOE compromise is, for instance, using stolen data to be able to fake convincing credentials or ID for access to sensitive real-world sites by bad actors.

And IIRC some DHS systems were hit too. Who knows what kind of sensitive information the unchained-under-Trump Customs and Border Patrol people had just sitting on weakly-secured computers.

According to former President Ilves,

Meanwhile, Trump complains the election was stolen and simply ignores it all, like he's ignoring Covid-19.

LOL omg this is so derpy

US Space Force members get a new name: 'guardians'

“It is my honor, on behalf of the president of the United States, to announce that henceforth the men and women of the United States Space Force will be known as guardians,” Pence said. “Soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and guardians will be defending our nation for generations to come.”
