Joe Biden, or Donald Trump. You think either would pass a physical? Or told Mossad no when shown the videos from secret cams of them fucking kids in an Israeli honeytrap operation?

I'll take 'Cover storied invented by the CIA" for $500, Ken.

I don't believe this for a second. It's even less plausible than that mining manganese nodules on the ocean floor was the real purpose of the Glomar Explorer.

I have no idea what they're hiding but really doubt anything like a quantum heartbeat detector exists. To make wild guess, we had some human assets in the country who told us where the officer was and we needed a story so we didn't compromise that person. Maybe we'll find out the truth over the next 30 years.

I don't agree, but time will tell. I predict that a lot of Trump's base will sit out midterms, resulting in loss of control over both Congress and Senate.

Is there anything in a settlement that advances right to repair? That is, the key issue with Deere is that they lock out regular mechanical repairs with what is essentially DRM and force farmers to use only authorized repair facilities. That is, this is DMCA abused to subvert Magnusonâ"Moss.

they were able to pass the physical.

Oh, come on, stop harping on Joe Biden's frailty — he's been out of office for over a year now!

But you don't read the generated binaries, do you? Not even the assembly text...

Those bastards, how dare they defend themselves...

Let's not forget it was Bibi himself that propped up Hamas to leverage them against the Palestinian Authority...

That wouldn't make up for Ukraine and Gaza war support, but yeah, you're probably right. We'd all probably be getting arrested for hate-speech laws if she'd have got in, too, but alas I'm still here talking shit.

Hahahaha! Suuuure. You sound completely rational I'm sure everyone who reads you post will immediately become a Democrat.

Mostly the media, but it sure as fuck hasn't been Libertarians, Green Party, Bull Moose, or any other 3rd party that's tried.

Another "Say one word that could even be interpreted as not support Ukraine and I'll accuse you of Putin worship." guy. Yeah, great logic, moron. Everyone at antiwar.com is a "Putin worshiper". Very rational and well thought out...

Fox doesn't matter. What matters is Trump's base and congress. Of Trump base, a lot like Alex Jones and Tucker Carlson, are openly calling for his impeachment. In congress, unfortunately they are more afraid of AIPAC that their voters, but they will get tossed out come election time. I don't see a way for Trump to avoid consequences of breaking his explicit election promises.

Going by CVE counts, it sure as FUCK seems to be working for some folks. They "just picked one" when they picked OpenVMS and those user hit a massive security jackpot with 19 CVEs in 49 years. Fucking security doorknobs love your phrase "defense in depth" but it's really simple: do everything you can. Sure, that's a great idea, too, but if you are denying that some folks who choose more secure operating systems didn't reap large security benefits by being less attractive targets, you're simply ignoring reality.

Unpopularity and obscurity are pretty fucking closely related. VMS has been around since the 1970's. It has ~0.4 CVEs per year (19 CVEs ÷ ~49 years). In Linux there are 14k CVEs and that comes out to around 400 CVEs a year on average. Windows is a bit harder to calculate but it's between 500 and 1000 CVE's a year. So, by this metric, OpenVMS is between 500x-1000x more secure.

Obviously, you can do more with Linux or Windows at this point, but that's not really germane to the discussion. We are talking about security. If "obscurity" doesn't matter, then why the MASSSSSSSSIVE fucking disparity? That was rhetorical. Don't bother answering. You'll only look less informed and more pedantic than you already do.

"The only question in my mind is if Kamala would have started dropping the bombs sooner or later."
Sure it is. Maybe Trump will improve your talking points later.

"Kamala was all "Yea! War!" so maybe she'd have not done it?"
Citations please.

"One is to start/continue wars behind an orange retard. The other is to start/continue wars behind some brown bitch-retard."
Sure, both sides. Super original. Which "retard" worships Putin? I mean, besides you.

"Kinda finding it hard to see any real difference"
Sounds like a you problem. And how did Kamala Harris become part of the conversation? We all know, of course.

"Do you want those announcements from some dumb bitch you would not let operate a can-opener by herself or some angry ancient orangutan-looking asshole who you'd bet against putting his pants on by himself?"
Not being a raging misogynist like you are, the choice is clear. I prefer not to have a 34-time felon, rapist and child molester threatening genocide of nearly 100M people as my President, we know what you prefer.

"Great choices, partisans. Lovely situation you've both-sides'd us into."
Wait, who's doing the both-sidesing? You have us mistaken for those "retards" you are so familiar with.
