That kind of attack is already a thing; whole it will most likely remain one in the future, it is one in the present as well.

The "unauthorized access" portion is what makes it a hack. It's not a super technical hack, but it's a hack.
Ron Wyden is a treasure:
"The U.S. government should not be funding and legitimizing a shady industry whose flagrant violations of Americans' privacy are not just unethical, but illegal," Wyden wrote.
KeePass doesn't store your stuff in the cloud; it's all local storage. You can sync your encrypted KeePass DB in a number of different ways; personally, I go for SyncThing, but you can use Box or whatever.
That's great once we've got a UBI or can ditch capitalism entirely, but until then it just means fewer jobs for those that need them.
My understanding is that digital nomads are basically just long-term tourists rather than immigrants; they don't get visas that allow permanent residency or anything. Iceland's digital nomad visa, for example, only lets you stick around for 6 months, and you can't renew it more than once a year. So you really do have to be somewhat nomadic, and travel to a different country.
I'm in Portland as well, and as a cyclist, it annoys me no end when a driver with no stop sign stops and waves me through my stop sign. I call them "niceholes".
Personally, when I come back to San MMO after a long time away, I like to start with a brand new character for exactly that reason: it gives me time to figure out which crap in my inventory is actually worth anything.
If you want a quick way to clean out your inventory that probably won't get rid of anything too important, type "trophy" into the inventory search bar and ditch all that stuff. Use the 80 boost on a new character; it doesn't lock you out of your personal story. If you want to keep going, use the wiki. In case you're not aware, you can link an item in game by shift -clicking it. If you type /wiki in the chat and then link the item, it'll bring up your browser with a wiki link to the relevant page. The wiki will often tell you if the item is worth having on to.
FYI "comprised of" is not a thing; you mean "composed of". The correct way to use "comprise," if you're interested, is like "the United States comprises fifty states". Technically you should mention DC and the various US territories etc as well, since comprise should indicate all of the parts.
Such a good game. It's mind-blowing how much personality and character development they give a bunch of quadrilaterals. The wiring and narration are fantastic.
Darknet Diaries is always fascinating: it's all about cybercrime. Sometimes the episodes are breakdowns of particular hacker groups or specific notable hacks; other times, they're interviews with people in the industry: both cybersecurity professionals and criminals.
So does it just stay at the same point relative to the gravitational center of Earth? What about the day/night cycle; does the Earth keep rotating under it? And how big a mass is needed to lock it in place? It'd be pretty sweet for long plane trips if it traveled with the plane.
