Cyclospora is changing the American workplace lunch: 'We switched our marketing immediately,' says Saladworks CEO

The Lantern of the Laughless Saint, a Morrowind-inspired RPG weirdfest out this week in early access, has immediately seduced me with dialogue camera hijinks

Still, at least these are all external threats. It's not like the actual plane itself is being messed with, or that the pilots are getting faulty messages in the cockpit about the status of the aircraft. That would be very bad. Especially if it could be done with the 60-second installation of a $100 device into an unlocked maintenance connector. So, guess what?
