Do I want military bases to have redundancy in case of attack? Yes! This is just cheaping out on grid resiliency and calling it security

The Hill article “7 takeaways from Hegseth's address to officers: Warfare's future, faith and a new base”

My Dad creeped out William Gibson getting him to sign this in the late 80’s

A black framed Geographic Information System (GIS) map with red location markers and a blue lake. A company name in red is at the top which reads Matrix Research and the motto “let us jack you in” below. On the far right top is a map key box titled “Sprawl” with the symbols for lake, roads, and CUSTOMERS. Below it is a signature box with William Gibson’s signature. The lowest box gives the maps scale as .5 miles.
