We have our own system, Twint. Wero was based on it, but so far they’re not interchangeable.

Someday we’ll have Gate gate, or maybe even another scandal at the Watergate complex, so Watergate gate.

I can’t wait!

Oh. I thought that was Elixir until I zoomed in.

Just be sure to make it look like an accident.

Right? My reaction was, “I could do that in under a minute in Vim”.

Piracy is when you board a ship, kill or kidnap its crew and steal the cargo. Copying a file is nothing like that.

You know, I can see where you’re coming from there, but people have to resist with the tools they have at hand. I think it’s a lot more powerful sometimes to keep your resistance in the family, both literally and figuratively.

Or Jewish friends who publicly denounce what is now clearly a genocide are to be protected and lauded, of course.

But those who resist quietly among family and friends, also deserve our admiration. Sometimes quiet diplomacy is the most effective thing, and it’s perhaps even more brave when well meaning folk like yourself are creating these litmus tests requiring public resistance.

I think I was still occasionally using Mac OS in early 1999, but I made the leap sometime that year.

Even more weird possibilities: would the DoE forcibly relocate the physicists and engineers who do this work? Or would California step in and protect them? In any case I think the number of weapons that wind up under the control of the State of California would not be zero. The same goes for bombers, and missile systems, of which California has the most flexible examples.

Sure, the production missile fleet is in Montana and N. Dakota, but those things are there to draw fire, not necessarily to be used. But Vandenberg and Edwards are in California. What happens to those?

They are controlled normally by the Department of Energy.

But sesession would be a weird event, and many things would change. Physical location is not one of them. And the physical location of the place where the most advanced nuclear weapons are designed and built is in California.

Would the physicists and engineers at Lawrence Livermore just pack up and leave? Or would they continue rolling out B.83s or something in between.

Loose lips sink ships.

I do not mean power plants:

Maybe. They’re floundering since Xi put economics on a lower tier than his own power.

The EU could do it, but it will require sharp thinking and sharper action.

Like I said, what emergency? They’re all made up.

What emergency?

In one neighborhood of that city.

This

We know who is really behind this stuff: Russell Vought.

The remaining question is: how to make it look like a suicide?

California is unlikely to give up their nukes.

US balkanization is exactly the chaos preceding the emergence of the next superpower.
