@0xabad1dea oh the objects created sparks and fire, wonder what it could have been

@flipper
How can one prevent being a victim of that apocalypse? -
@Rairii We have always been at war with us-east-1.
@icecolbeveridge @Rairii to be fair, if Iran did manage to hit us-east-1, would anyone believe the ensuing outage was actually war-related, as opposed to business as usual for AWS?

AWS outage: heat death of solar system sun. referred to as "outage due to higher than usual seasonal temperatures"

Ballistic Missile just means it finishes its burn relatively early (contrast to Cruise Missile eg).
There are many sizes and payloads, they aren't all nuclear.
@eestileib @HeNeArXn @0xabad1dea Of it was a nuke, it wouldn't be back up any time soon. But it also wouldn't be from Iran. Israel or the US have nukes though. Neither are part of the worldwide nuclear monitoring program, unlike, er, Iran...
