Exposure on the domain owner may have been lesser if there were a fully-acknowledged clean win on election night, so it's not knowable for certain.
Speculating, it feels likely that it would have taken a little longer and could have been done more amicably, but almost certainly still would have happened. If you watch AdamcastIRL's interview with the domain owner, it's pretty clear that the situation was untenable with broken trust between the team running this site and the domain owner.
I have some sympathies with the domain owner's concerns, but once it got to the point where his level of control was just "I own the domain", not handing it over or selling for a fair price was very unprofessional. Redirecting the site records to 127.0.0.1 right after the admins started moving to the new domain is further petty and childish. At least the redirection target isn't actively malicious - there are far worse things that could have been done.
I will laugh my ass clean off if thedonald.win starts redirecting to mrtrump.win tomorrow.
You can't just make claims, without proof, that local stations are propagandistic mouthpieces. This is extremely dangerous to our democracy!

The reason for that was the move to the shared communities.win single sign-on system. Same technical concept as "Login with Facebook" links you may find across the internet, although more simplistic because it doesn't need to be used with less-trustworthy sites.
If you watch your connections closely you'll see the sign-in data actually goes to authentication.win now, regardless of which Communities site you use.
If that was the event where the feds took over... well, I do believe we have consipracies.win, too.

The trouble with crypto is how little one can actually buy in tangible goods and services with it. It's shit at being an actual currency right now. The public nature of it also means that it's like posting your credit card statement in the town square.
As a store of value, it's a risk. Risks are manageable when understood though. BTC has the 51% issue where China collectively owns the network already and could make unilateral alterations to the blockchain ledger, but even apart from that, the highly unstable valuation makes it like buying a single high risk stock. Most (but not all) altcoins derive value from BTC. If you have spare cash and can hodl your crypto for a long time before needing it again as regular cash, it could work out great. Have multiple coin types and accounts at multiple exchanges in case there's a big selloff and logjam (think like the great depression bank run), but keep your own coin in your own wallets as there is already a rich history of exchanges "losing" their users wallets where they kept sole ownership of them.
As a Ponzi scheme, it's stellar. Easy to get in, easy to partially divest to hedge your bet, and barring the 51% issue, there is likely to be a good period of warning time to get out and not be the one left hodling the bag. To be clear, cryptocurrency is not actually a Ponzi scheme, but since it's solely backed by confidence with zero hard assets or threat of force, it needs to be treated as such.
Yes, any embedded tweets loaded will get your network address and know it was loaded by thedonald.win. It's part of why Twitter banned screenshots of tweets on their own platform.
Use screenshots, and provide an an archive link.
If islamists can conceptualize taqiyya, commies in tech are more than capable of being deceptive.
We want the best to do their best work in pursuit of liberty. Big tech took a lot of competence to get big. But they will need extreme vetting.
Yes, many. However Cloudflare bends the laws on the good/fast/cheap rule and hasn't been nearly as fast to bend the knee as other major providers.
To put it in perspective, they protect Alex Jones's banned.video and The Pirate Bay's sites. The company stance on free speech goes right up to the CEO.
They should not be the only shield, but they have been proven to be unusually stalwart in a land of backstabbers.
Don't buy ethanol gas for the genny. It doesn't keep well.
Transhumanism is not the path to eternal life, it's the path to programmable consciousness and eternal slavery.
I'll take my chances between heaven, hell, and the eternal void before an upload. Free will is the final, most sacred freedom there is.
The only saving grace is how incredibly far off such a prospect is. We can see what the goal is, but it would be like giving Alan Turing the blueprints to a PS5 and telling him to get crackin'. This will be a fight for our grandchildren.
That's a login page for SolarWinds Helpdesk ticketing page. Not as exciting as Orion.
Orion is to an infrastructure monitoring and configuration backup/differencing tool. Usually chocked full of privileged account credentials for routers, switches, out-of-band admin interfaces and such. Gold mine for an attacker to breach, and the CISA advisory says that being breached it is.
The helpdesk is just full of people complaining about shit. Sticky keyboards and slow computers and whatnot.
SolarWinds is one of those companies that "acquires" to expand, so the software they sell usually has little inter-related code.
They don't give a shit about Biden. They don't even care about Kamala.
They want a puppet.
Decohesion of the family unit breeds a lack of trust for authority figures. 'Fuck you, you're not my real dad' becomes 'fuck the police'. Distrust begets distrust, tensions and violence escalate. The State upon which so many become dependent also becomes an adversary.
Somewhere in the fiery pits of hell, Karl Marx cracks a smile.
It's exceedingly recently that they found out how to get custom mRNA into a cell without setting off all the immune system alarms - a scant handful of years. In theory, a vaccine is a very rudimentary application of the technique.
I personally don't think it's extremely likely that we're going to get in much trouble from this particular iteration (only a hunch, take it with all the grains of salt you can find), but a successful implementation of custom mRNA really is opening the Pandora's box of bioscience.
We may witnessing the next steam engine in terms of impact.
Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna's are both the mRNA vaccines. They don't work by changing your DNA, but instead get taken up by cells and carry instructions to produce the covid spike protein. Not producing the whole virus, just its defining feature. The idea is that the immune system will learn to kill cells producing and carrying that particular protein as being defective or malevolent instead of the default of 'probably harmless'. Being a jab in the arm, that should be mostly muscle cells that are replaced regularly anyways.
If it works as intended, and it's manufactured correctly and consistently, it could be safer and have fewer side effects than traditional vaccine techniques as it carries no self-replication capability. It's also cutting edge technology without long-term proof of safety. What happens if manufacturing goes bad or cold storage isn't maintained properly just isn't well known yet. Keeping it away from children and those who may still have children is just plain prudent. Especially since those age groups have astronomical survival rates already.
AstraZeneca's is a more traditional vaccine. They use a rhinovirus most commonly found in chimpanzees, but it's modified to also carry the spike protein. Common cold virus wearing a covid costume. It's more likely to have immediate side effects (put you on your ass for a couple days) since it's a real live virus, but have long term effects in line with a regular cold -- basically none. Still has room for manufacturing problems and unknown long-term side effects too, but being based on older approaches, it's much less likely.
From the minds who brought you imaginary numbers...
Remember how VW cheated the EPA tests? These have the capability to be programmed far more deviously.
A test with the the system clock rolled back to election day, with votes fed in at a normal human rate might be good enough to catch lazy programming. If they're set with fuse-like mechanisms to only cheat once until reprogrammed, only a code audit or test of a programmed, but unused machine could catch nefarious actions.
Anything more technologically advanced than a printing calculator should be illegal in an election. I will also accept arguments that we draw the line at lightbulbs.

One possible outcome is that this gets kicked back to the PA Supreme Court where the case is forced to be taken on merits. It's actually requested as one of the possible preferred outcomes, and rubs me as one of the easier "outs" for SCOTUS to avoid stepping on states' rights.
Not the ideal result given ideological slants in the PA courts, but seems likely. It would mean the fight goes on, but still not on level turf.
Petitioners request this Court to extend the same preliminary injunctive relief initially granted by the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania and to either strike down Act 77 as an unconstitutional ultra vires act of the Pennsylvania General Assembly pursuant to the Pennsylvania and U.S. Constitutions or remand to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court for a determination of the question of the constitutionality of Act 77 under the Pennsylvania Constitution so that this Court may further determine the act’s validity under the U.S. Constitution.
Could just as easily be the work of some brainlet tripping the fuse on a power bar with a space heater that also happens to run the "portable server".
Doesn't discount all other possible nefarious scenarios at all, but having worked in field IT, "the server crashed" is the layman's phrase for any problem that affects more than one computer.
It's yet one more reason for voting to be paper only. Any system too complicated for all involved to fully understand it is ripe for subterfuge.
Dude drinks raw sewage from the MSM ten hours a day. It's almost a goddamn miracle he's still able to form a single independent thought.
Lightly filtered sewage is still sewage, but despite that, I listen to Tim because not knowing your enemy is the surest way to lose.
Accordingly, in careful consideration of the exigencies and time constraints in this matter of statewide and national import, and the longstanding constitutional mandate that every citizen of this Commonwealth is entitled to no less than a fair and free election, it was necessary to preliminarily enjoin, on an emergency and temporary basis, Executive Respondents from undertaking any other actions with respect to the certification of the results of the presidential and vice presidential elections, if indeed anything else needs to be done, pending an evidentiary hearing to ascertain the facts of this matter and to determine if the dispute is moot.
Inasmuch as the Secretary had not certified the remaining results of the 2020 general election, it was also necessary to enjoin, on an emergency and preliminary basis, any attempt to certify these results as well.
Based upon the record before it, this Court has sufficient grounds to enjoin Respondents from further certification activities on an emergency preliminary basis
TL,DR; judge says 'The complaints appear to have merit. Pump the brakes on the certification. Let's talk about it.' but in way more words.
Up next: an expedited emergency evidentiary hearing ('show me what you got').
I am so proud of this community
