I hear ya.
The Fucking life is an expensive adventure once outsiders are introduced into the equation.
Just when I get used to the fucking, things start to suck.

Originally funded by ARPA (Advanced Research Projects Agency), now DARPA, within the United States Department of Defense, ARPANET was to be used for projects at universities and research laboratories in the US. The packet switching of the ARPANET was based on designs by British scientist Donald Davies and Lawrence Roberts of the Lincoln Laboratory.
Initially, ARPANET consisted of four IMPs:
· One at the University of California, Los Angeles with an SDS Sigma 7 as the first computer attached to it;
· One at the Stanford Research Institute's Augmentation Research Center, where Douglas Engelbart is credited with creating the NLS (oN-Line System) hypertext system, with an SDS 940 that ran NLS being the first host attached;
· One at University of California, Santa Barbara with the Culler-Fried Interactive Mathematics Center's IBM 360/75 running OS/MVT being the machine attached;
· And one at the University of Utah's Computer Science Department, running a DEC PDP-10 running TENEX.
The first message on the ARPANET was sent by UCLA student programmer Charles S Kline at 10:30 pm on October 29, from the campus’ Boelter Hall to the Stanford Research Institute's SDS 940 host computer. The message text was meant to be the word “login,” but only the L and O were transmitted before the system crashed. An IMP log excerpt kept at UCLA that describes setting up a message transmission from the UCLA SDS Sigma 8 host computer to the SRI SDS 940 host computer. The initials “CSK” to the right stand for Charles S Kline.
About an hour after the crash, the system was recovered and a full “login” message was sent as the second transmission.
The first permanent ARPANET link was established weeks later on November 21, 1969, between the IMP at UCLA and the IMP at the Stanford Research Institute. By December 5, 1969, the entire four-node network was established.
By 1975, ARPANET was declared "operational" and the Defense Communications Agency took control of it. In 1983, ARPANET was split with US military sites on their own Military Network (MILNET) for unclassified defense department communications. The combination was called the Defense Data Network.
ARPANET was formally decommissioned on February 28, 1990. Well-known computer scientist and a “father of the Internet” Vinton Cerf wrote "Requiem of the ARPANET" in honor of the system."

I've had an oral fixation since birth. First it was tit. Then it was thumb. Then I graduated to dick. I even had a brief fixation with toes. My own. I was a limber mother fucker.

I could never lick my toes (past the age of one, I imagine). And I hurt my back at 14 trying to make my mucous membranes meet.

Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure (JEDI) is the proposed United States Department of Defense (DoD) cloud infrastructure network that could ultimately store even nuclear codes. The preliminary initiative for the JEDI project began in March 2018, as a request for proposal (RFP) so providers could bid on the contract. The $10 billion contract was originally set to close in May 2018 and was later extended to October 2018. The awarding of the contract subsequently came under dispute, causing additional delays. Amazon, Microsoft, Oracle, IBM and Google were among the companies contending for the contract. Google later dropped out after employee complaints that the project did not fit their culture. According to experts in digital forensics from the International Institute of Cyber Security, this project has already begun to generate serious security concerns, even though it is still in the bidding phase. The objective of the Pentagon's cloud strategy is a "department-wide enterprise cloud computing ecosystem that allows us to revolutionize how we interact with technology every day,"

Knowing our government I figured they just used one password and wrote it on the front of their Pee Chee folder
