I feel like a broken record reminding people that the TAO (Tailored Access Operations, now Computer Network Operations), part of the NSA, has been doing this for 20 years. Except they implant spyware instead of explosives. Probably.

Listed in an auction, $55,500 bid…reserve not met. Yikes, what do they want for it?

They going to tear open the battery while they are at it? It’s not like there’s going to be a small lump labeled “RDX” with wires sticking out of it.

While they’re at it, why not incorporate the explosive into the body of the device? Has no one else seen Up in Smoke?

I used to work for General Atomics; started as a division of General Dynamics to figure out nuclear power plants, then, after a few oil company owners, landed in private hands. They bought a small company working on drones back in the 1980s, and now the Predator and Reaper are the biggest part of the company.

Nothing obvious; no game breaking bugs or unplayability. Just too little, too late. If it came out 5 years ago, it would have a chance, but that space is too crowded now with F2P offerings to tolerate a bland entry with high upfront cost. It sounds like they’ll retool it into F2P, hopefully add something unique, and relaunch.

Seriously, I just finished my annual “preventing harassment’ training and there’s a whole section on power differential and how just asking puts employees in a bad spot. Just…don’t.

I don’t feel that one’s even halfway earned. I don’t hate my fellow man, not even when he’s tiresome, surly, and tries to cheat at poker. I figure that’s just the human material, and he that finds in it cause for anger or dismay is a fool for expecting better.
