2. They were probably both on the same server…

The hackers got 2 for the price of 1.

Wonder if it was the same server Hill kept her emails on?

4. Yep, same server with 2 different IP addresses

The most impressive part of the whole thing is managing to locate both sites on one server, and having that server physically reside simultaneously in Chicago, Illinois and Ashburn, Virginia.

You thought it was just a Russian hack, but it turns out to be an entirely new breakthrough in quantum mechanics.

I should add that if new realms of physics have not actually been opened here, Skinner is right now quite vulnerable to criminal charges (fraud). Any person who gave him a dime at any point should have standing to kick off that process.

6. I'm still not buying the 'hacker' bullshit. They pulled the plug as soon as

exit polling started coming in on tuesday and realized the fate that was upon them.

5. Yes, it is as dead as DU. I won't miss Discussionist – it was a RW cesspool

reminiscent of Facebook and MSM comments sections.

I liked DU even though they didn’t always like me.
