Nobody is suggesting that the virus was created from scratch. Of course the viruses have a natural origin, where do you think the original samples come from? I don't know where you are interpreting your stance from, and I am sorry if I

I'm not quite sure I get your point. I use the resolver of my ISP also, and they must recurse to cloudflare, because by default archive.is is broken for me at home. I am not going to change my ISP and not going to bow down to a single

This is an interesting point. My guess is that this looks like training material for low-level desk jockeys to help do all of the legwork gathering evidence that would be presented in court cases. Stingrays you would think would be more of

The title is the exact headline, and the rust programming language does not have a 'crew', nor any involvement with Alec Baldwin, and is unlikely to be the cause of gunfights with celebrities.

You're thinking of WinGet. OneGet is an open source project run by an open source group at Microsoft and has been around since 2014. It's based on linux package managers.

I think you misunderstand the art of storytelling. It's not about trying to give an accurate historical account, the focus is primarily entertainment. It's been like this for thousands of years.
