Facebook doesn’t dispute the exchange, but will only say that this occurred during a previously reported meeting, not some new meeting between the two men. Most importantly, Facebook is declining to elaborate on what Zuckerberg may have meant about being “number one." — PolitiTweet.org

Experts say an Iranian cyberattack in retaliation for the Soleimani strike is a “real possibility” as the country has moved from a third-rate digital power to at least a second-tier player, and could cause “serious damage”: https://t.co/gGnLOrfzvy — PolitiTweet.org

@mluby @MontyTayloe Yes, but the ones in RoS did not appear to be any of those models. Just bog standard TIEs. — PolitiTweet.org

@MontyTayloe No, that came before. But that was silly too. How did those TIE fighters keep up? It’s already been established that they lack hyperdrives. — PolitiTweet.org

@DerekDoesTech A galaxy-spanning Holdo strategy would just come down to a war of attrition, one the First Order would surely win against the Resistance’s limited numbers and manufacturing capacity. Anyway the point is almost anything would have been more convincing than the excuse we got. — PolitiTweet.org

@DerekDoesTech A more plausible explanation could’ve been “we value the lives of our brethren too highly” or “hyperdrives are too costly to use that way” or even "we don’t have enough ships to make this an effective strategy.” But the actual reason sounded like the writers just… gave up — PolitiTweet.org

@DerekDoesTech I agree they needed to handle it somehow. I just think the way they handled it was far too casual and handwavey for how seriously it broke the laws of the established universe. — PolitiTweet.org

I still think the cringiest part of the new Star Wars was how they tried to address the Holdo maneuver. Out of all the things, that one bugged me the most. — PolitiTweet.org

A reminder for 2020: If you work at a tech company and would like to talk about your experiences privately, my DMs are open, my CNN email is in my bio, my ProtonMail on request, and I’m always happy to connect on encrypted messaging apps like Signal, iMessage or WhatsApp. — PolitiTweet.org

This is insane. The one thing Ring cameras are meant to do is keep your home secure. Whenever this happens Ring points the finger at password reuse or, in this case, “other company” data breaches but the more we learn the less compelling it sounds: https://t.co/rcHlUe1RXf — PolitiTweet.org
