In SF's climate, most days one doesn't really get sweaty from biking. (Please do not take this as an endorsement of craft beers and/or mustaches.)
Quick, get on board the hipster-hate train, before it becomes uncool!
Man, I think it's already been uncool for like 6 months. Get with the times already!
Wouldn't that be "wayleh"?

Which of these represent something the US couldn't have done a half century ago?
A perhaps more interesting question is, which of these represent something the US could still do today? Sadly, I believe the answer to that question would be 5) None of the above.
A calamitous failure of the Colorado river dam system would probably cause the collapse of the United States as a single country. The entire western US is dependent on them for both water and power. Yet I'm fairly certain that we Americans couldn't currently muster the political will to replace (or even do major repairs on) just one of them, much less the entire system.
No, seriously!
OpenBSD tends to take some very conservative security choices (see OpenSSH) but then turns around and does stuff like LibreSSL forks of OpenSSL, instead of fixing the problem, they make their own version of the problem.
Maybe (pure speculation) the OpenBSD team considered the human processes around the OpenSSL code to be the real security problem. Heartbleed did seem a tad bit too convenient to be an accidental bug...

Two spaceship crashes in one week does seem awful suspicious, so sabotage seems like a plausible explanation. Likewise Russia seems like a plausible culprit given the ongoing proxy war in Ukraine. But I'm not aware of any actual evidence to support these reasonable guesses.
I kinda doubt the Chinese would be involved. Current relations between Bushbama regime and CCP are, outwardly, pretty cordial.
Remember the first World Trade Center attack, where the terrorist was arrested when he tried to get his $400 deposit back on the truck he used?
That part of the Official Mythology has always seemed a wee bit implausible to me...
Should I live in terror of an anvil spontaneously falling thru my ceiling and crushing me? 'Cuz there's no real chance of that happening either.
Really dumb SSID name choice? Yes.
NO. It's NOT a dumb SSID name. It's a FUNNY name. When most people see an SSID with a funny name, it makes them chuckle. It takes a special kind of fucktardedness to call in the Gestapo because of someone's mildly amusing joke.
