I'll take my downvotes. No, I don't think he is.

I think if he were, he'd have

• limited his disclosure to the programs he had an actual issue with
• at least attempted the normal whistleblower procedure through OGC
• gathered his data by social engineering staff in specific projects and not anyone he could in his office

Personally, my profile of Snowden is someone who has a large ego and lashed out because he was a small fish in a large NSA pond. The "whistleblower" story was generated by propagandists to encourage copycats by digging through the massive disclosures and finding one or two uncomfortable things to latch on to. Snowden played along because he had to; he was now at the mercy of U.S. adversaries to give him safe harbor.

Guys, it's okay - the lawmaker was only threatening to molest the wife nonviolently.

I think this is a Chik-Fil-A parking lot stop sign—the branding is spot on.

EDIT: Actually, I think I recognize the surroundings, too. This is the Chick-Fil-A off Hobbs Rd in Huntsville, Alabama: https://maps.app.goo.gl/fod76mqmB7sNhEqE7

Not to distill your loss into a business lesson, but Chewy has a fantastic playbook they follow when a client's pet dies. Expect some flowers & card from Chewy in the coming days.

They know that pet owners are incredibly likely to become pet owners again, and it's a small write-off to convert a client into a lifetime customer.

They're literally the analog of in-game achievements.

This is rage bait, surely.

Hey DNC. Do this with all your shitty internal candidates. Be the reason folks can't make the "both sides are the same" argument by taking some fucking accountability.

This is a resonator. You put one or more fossils inside it to alch gear with a guaranteed set of affixes.

This is your daily reminder that being anti-facist isn't political, it's just good common sense!

Oh yeah. That's definitely the only bonus reason. Nothing else.

I love this updated version of V.A.T.S.

That's not exactly true. Classified briefings are given to the candidates at the discretion of the current President.

I highly doubt Biden is giving him access.

A contested convention, while rare, would be legal.

WinRAR users, you're not safe either. CVE-2025-8088 published a few days ago looks like it's exploiting the same/similar pathway.

I think you pull it off pretty well.

Yes, someone does care.

You do.

Next question.

They were given to Active Duty servicemembers, too - not just veterans. It took months to get a replacement device.

Please stop saying that morally bankrupt teens deserve a career in security.

They don't. Full stop. I don't give a fuck how talented you are, if I can't trust you then I'm not letting you near my systems. End of story.

I'd like to use my 50:50 lifeline, Alex.

the ultimate tailgator.
