Thanks, DNS sure is a weak point, along with SSL, but I hadn't consider that BGP is too.

In 2004, a Turkish ISP called TTNet accidentally advertised incorrect BGP routes to its neighbors. These routes claimed that TTNet itself was the best destination for all traffic on the Internet. As these routes spread further and further to more autonomous systems, a massive disruption occurred, creating a one-day crisis where many people across the world were not able to access some or all of the Internet.
Similarly, in 2008, a Pakistani ISP attempted to use a BGP route to block Pakistani users from visiting YouTube. The ISP then accidentally advertised these routes with its neighboring ASes and the route quickly spread across the Internet’s BGP network. This route sent users trying to access YouTube to a dead end, which resulted in YouTube’s being inaccessible for several hours.
These are examples of a practice called BGP hijacking, which does not always happen accidentally. In April 2018, attackers deliberately created bad BGP routes to redirect traffic that was meant for Amazon’s DNS service. The attackers were able to steal over $100,000 worth of cryptocurrency by redirecting the traffic to themselves.

Airplane drops human waste on man in his garden near Windsor Castle
I can see it now, the copilot is looking out the window and exclaims to the pilot "Bulls eye, got him!"

This is nothing. With all the nerds and homeless in San Francisco, electronically guided poo has been a thing for years.
Remember your drone to deliver flaming dog poo to your favorite liberal neighbors for Halloween.

No one expects poo for a loo, or a golden shower turned blue, whilst lounging about in the garden.

?? That must be a guitar thing. Only one G and making it flat would put it too close to the F-sharp following it. Or am I pulling a "Patrick" who did not see the 404 joke?
I'm feeling funky so flat the g.

Well in the case of a Mixolydian mode in A scale if you flat the G, it would become natural. Then at that point you're playing a damn D scale, but you still notate it as an A scale, and you have to put the natural notation next to every G note. I think modes were invented for people who don't quite understand how to meld one scale into another. So they make up patterns and modes so they can sound like everyone else.

Wow, way above my ken. I just put the music notation in that post so readers would understand I was parodying that "English Country Garden" kiddie song. Just plain old single voice or flute-o-phone level stuff from grade school.

LOL! Hugh Hefner's Playboy Mansion in Beverly Hills. Tunnels to Warren Beatty, Kirk Douglas, Jack Nicholson, and J. Caan residences just in this diagram. They could sneak in and out at will. How many other homes connected?

Jesus - I just feel sorry for the guy, you know he didn't just get fired, but he got super fired. I'm glad I have a job that when I fuck up, I have plenty of opportunity to fix it before it's even discovered I fucked up. Just takes more time. I'm fucking up right now, but I think an extra 4 hours will fix it although 12 hours days are not fun. What doesn't kill me makes me more competent.

He obviously has an IQ just 2-3 points higher than Alec Baldwin.
