The joke is that  ISBN-10 : 1585161519  is usually the book most people think of (Often paired with ISBN 10: 0529066807), but we are being obtuse little fucks. :)

No, no. Few words, less thoughts. Just MARC records and casually copied goodreads summaries. There's no thinking here, just an endless parade of officially sanctioned data piracy.

Oh, I thought we were avoiding ISBN: 9780241441572  and ISBN: 9780738206752...

So, anyway. AmeriPol. How many more weeks to go?

Apparently Trump's Twitter account got hacked by a Dutch guy.  Password was maga2020!. No secondary authentication required.

Oh dear... Rather than share it online, he should have sold that shit to Russia.

Imagine the hilarity that would have ensued!

Double your pleasure double your fun, of course.

Fault tolerance;

Double false flag Zanatos Gambit;

So many reasons.  Of course, if the Russian intelligence agencies actually started using Donny's twitter, the IMPROVEMENT in their readability and grammar would be noticed immediately.

Real answer, though: No one actually knows. Election day is the third of November, i.e. less than two weeks. Votes can end up being accepted out 'till about the 17th, though, iirc, and legal challenges can mess with any of the dates involved. So we don't know. No one knows. It could be less than two weeks. It could be some time into December or 2021. Power transfer isn't slated to finish until some time in January, I think. So probably more than a week, probably less than four months. >1, <16.

This will largely be determined by the margin of victory. A Biden landslide, if such a thing is indeed possible, could potentially end it on election night as per usual. If he's ahead in Texas or something when 80% of the votes have been counted, there's not much fuckery short of actually attempting an election overturn that could change the end result.

A decent Biden victory will probably linger for a week or so before all paths to victory for Trump are ruled out, no matter how many extra boxes of old folks home votes are miraculously discovered.

A narrow Trump or Biden victory is the one that will throw us into the hell scenario, though I don't believe there's any realistic possibility of the Democrats managing to overturn a narrow Trump win.

But regardless of how it plays out, what we know for sure is that Bernie Sanders will be blamed for the outcome.

Reading on, this is the second time an ethical hacker got into Trump's account and alerted people to the fact. The first time it happened his password was "yourefired".

This hacker cannot have been the first to discover it. I bet that spies of multiple nationalities were checking in daily, not just China and Russia but from every country in the world, including ministates.
