Climatecrisis-deniers and war-enablers go hand in hand ?

@0xabad1dea This is a characteristic trait of authoritarian systems, which corporations inherently are. In Russian propagandists media they used to call explosion a "clap." No kidding, "a gas clap in residential building" has become a meme

@0xabad1dea Sooo.. you had a calendar synchronization anomaly due to internal firmware instability? xD

@capnthommo I'm pretty sure that would be a finitely time-limited exothermic reaction event.

@0xabad1dea Fun, but do we actually know that the missile hit the data centre? A missile might have hit a neighbouring building, and the explosion then caused some large bits of concrete or whatever to hit the data centre.

@DaveFlater @0xabad1dea insurance generally excludes acts of war from coverage.
Fallout from a ballistic missile seems quite an act of war and I doubt "hey there was no war declaration" is enough to get a payment from them.

@0xabad1dea When you think about it, a flooded data centre is really just a...

[daveflater@infosec.exchange]

@mbpaz @0xabad1dea that's my point. They're going to say we don't know anything about a missile, something just fell on us, now please pay our claim.

@DaveFlater @0xabad1dea Being naive is not among the many many problems of insurance companies.

@mbpaz @DaveFlater @0xabad1dea I'd be genuinely curious to know how that will work. Ballistic missiles are definitely nation-state coded in ways that truck bombs are not; but my understanding is that insurance contracts usually distinguish between 'war' other violent damage by legal status rather than delivery method.

I also think I've been told that the "Malayan Emergency" was so classified in order to try to avoid war-related insurance conditions, so it has been tried before.
