"The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at and repair."

Douglas Adams

So here's a fun thing:

CISA (the US gov's Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency) just literally pulled a CVE that's actively being exploited with 0-days, because Microsoft's monthly patch for it was presumably worse.

I don't know if a CVE has ever been unpublished like this before?

And in the middle of a literal shooting war in Europe (that's also a hot global cyberwar) too.

This would be hilarious if it wasn't so terrifying.

- a microSD card weighs somewhere around 0.4g
- the highest capacity microSD that's easily available is 256GB
- a trebuchet can throw a 90kg projectile over 300m

90kg worth of microSD cards is 225,000 of them

Therefore a trebuchet can throw 57.6PB of data over 300m

This would have the highest throughput of any telecommunications network ever created
