Reply to Zero Days (2016) - Stuxnet, a piece of self-replicating computer malware that the U.S. and Israel unleashed to destroy a key part of an Iranian nuclear facility, and which ultimately spread beyond its intended target. [01:53:51] by Missing_Trillions
Great film, have seen at least twice.
Should be a cautionary tale for our digital age. A tool we created to cause major mischief to the Iranian nuclear program, comes back on us in the future!
Although we used the software to an effective result, we more or less published it’s code and other actors have appropriated this worm and will use as they see fit.

Reply to Train in Vain - The Clash, why am I just now hearing this great tune? by Hessian-Ghost
This song is proof they could produce in nearly any genre!
This is straight up power pop, Train In Vain is an infectious pop song if there ever was one, not as “big” as “Rock The Casbah” but a pop song. London calling has: pop/power pop, punk, ska, rockabilly, rock n roll! I think the only thing missing is marching band music.
Alway’s in the top 50 lists of greatest albums of all time for good reason. The Clash were @ the height of creativity for them at the time.
A greatly influential band that left a mark on music, the only band that mattered!
Here’s a tidbit Joe Strummer and the band demanded that “London Calling” be priced as a single album although it was a double record set and won! How many artists/bands would fight their own record company over retail pricing?
