If anybody needs me, I'm re-reading "The Computer Connection" by Alfred Bester with an introduction by none other than Harlan Ellison.

It's about an #AI called "Extro" that goes rogue after discovering Jesus — yes, THAT guy — was in a plot to manipulate Extro to serve mankind.

"if"?

This is #cyberwar you can't deny it

<wipes brow> I've faced uncommon yet all-too-real disgust from a few who hate RTs for their own reasons, thanx

Do I fall under your RT edict as a critic?

SOMEBODY BRIEF BUZZ ALDRIN, WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME

My, my! AFCEA's Signal magazine critiqued #cyberwar in their April 1, 2026 issue. The question is … did they publish an April Fool's op-ed? Discuss.

Why doesn't the U.S. admit it engages in acts of economic #cyber-terrorism against the entire world? Discuss.

Calm down… I backed up my TRS-80 to cassette and I backed up the Honeywell H6000 to Hollerith cards.

It's 2026 and we've waited a third of a century, bitches.

Except for the Middle East thing, I bet long-term on all the rest in July 2024 (particularly a global tariff war) and my portfolio has been doing bangers "for all the wrong reasons" according to Every. Single. One. of my MAGA former coworkers & former friends on Facebook 😐

Historically, the global cybersecurity community called on victim countries to declare war against any nation-state that launched a #CyberPearlHarbor. And right now we have the kind of U.S. president willing to consider 35,140 Marines a "solution" to über-deadly cyber attacks:

Take the train that travels the longest straight rail path on earth, 300 miles!

I get the best replies 🤩

This is cyber you can't deny it

So much for the lament of a horrific #cyber attack¹ pushing gas prices over <consults ancient scrolls> $3/gal

This is #cyber you can't deny it

Yeah, butt I failed to predict the GOP would crash #Grindr and I never pondered invading countries to distract from the #EpsteinFiles.

I'm sorry, I've got bad news.

I transposed my Vmyths expertise onto MAGA.

On July 25 & 26, 2024, I set my entire portfolio on a long-term goal to exploit a decade of #stagflation starting with a global trade war, and at some point proposing an American job corps involving concentration camps.

Try dipping them in subzero #cyber fluid, it's delicious

I pray you survive his "cyber-lethality" keynote at the next DEF CON / BLACK HAT convention

My manifestos at Vmyths[.]com racked up 26 victims in the global #antivirus industry 😏

I get the best replies 🤩

Some AI startup is going to reinvent 'shit happens' and be like:

"You're happening shit wrong. Happen shit while you sleep with HappenShit - your fully agentic, self-happening shit"

37½ years dealing with people who fell for cybersecurity hoaxes and never once did I come close to a phrase THAT powerful!

The zero-state for "desperate" is "patient." #TheGrammarianGames

We used to apply our Information Security just as haphazardly— no wait, I'm being told we still do 😒

Hey @duffelblog.com, here's a headline idea: "Hegseth draws up plans for invasion of Epstein Ireland"

To be fair, I was like this at too many Air Force annual training roundups
