From dirt poor starving shitbird to superpower in 40 years. Unfortunately Germany still has industrial capacity but the Ukraine war and the green bullshit is getting rid of that. China will appreciate Germany being hamstrung. A decade ago Germany was the number one exporter in the entire world. Tiny little Germany. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 73244910 United States 01/31/2024 07:31 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | China uses hackers. Obama used F-18s to destroy water and power grids. But it was said they "did it to help Israel". Because the ideology of the Red Commie Pinko FBI is that "one Jew is worth 6000 whites." So why does Obama FBI "alert" when they have absolutely no effort to do anything about it? |

User ID: 81784093 United States 01/31/2024 07:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The control systems that run these plants have been commercially available for 30 years. There have been upgrades and differences but not drastic. We sell these to anyone in the world that will buy them and many of these pro's and companies sell more outside the US than inside. They have some security controls in place but best practice is to have the operations systems disconnected from the IT systems with a "DMZ" so you can't get through the Internet. The number of machines and stuff running in old PCs running windows XP would blow your mind. It takes years to design in proper security into the hardware. If not you have to add devices or separate them. We have major vulnerability here, that is all I will say. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85381818 Kinda surprised anything has managed to stay on this long. I think it is by the grace of God we still have power and electricity. The experienced people with common sense were driven out by forced jabs and them quitting or dropping dead. Liberals and affirmative action hires can't learn a critical job in a week so it is truly a miracle we still have these blessings. |
