Republicans are freaking out about the market, a potential recession, and midterms.

Ray Charles could have seen this coming.

A while back I was helping examine the security of the Starlink terminal and found a very obvious bug in the bootloader that was only unexploitable due to the memory layout of the terminal. Critical infrastructure shouldn't depend on Starlink without a shitload of auditing.
