About this deal

I've been reading a lot of books and articles on the potential for cyberwarfare. The potential is there for even non-state actors to operate in the shadows and do tremendous harm. Then again shutting down most of our industry might solve the global warming worst case scenarios. One apocalypse preventing another.

Less than two months after iSight had found its first fingerprints, Hultquist’s idea of Sandworm had shifted yet again. “This was a foreign actor who had access to zero days making a deliberate attempt on our critical infrastructure,” Hultquist said. “We’d detected a group on the other side of the world carrying out espionage. We’d pored over its artifacts. And we’d found it was a threat to the United States.”Herbert notes in Dune that microscopic creatures called sand plankton feed upon traces of melange scattered by sandworms on the Arrakeen sands. [16] The sand plankton are food for the giant sandworms, but also grow and burrow to become what the Fremen call Little Makers, "the half-plant-half-animal deep-sand vector of the Arrakis sandworm".

Aggressive, territorial and destructive, attracted by rhythmic sounds, and driven into a killing frenzy by Holtzman shields The sandtrout ... was introduced here from some other place. This was a wet planet then. They proliferated beyond the capability of existing ecosystems to deal with them. Sandtrout encysted the available free water, made this a desert planet ... and they did it to survive. In a planet sufficiently dry, they could move to their sandworm phase. [18] Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty". ClassicReload.com. February 17, 2014. Archived from the original on September 21, 2020 . Retrieved May 23, 2020. The sandtrout are described as "flat and leathery" in Children of Dune, with Leto II noting that they are "roughly diamond-shaped" with "no head, no extremities, no eyes" and "coarse interlacings of extruded cilia". [18] They can find water unerringly, and squeezing the sandtrout yields a "sweet green syrup". [18] When water is flooded into the sandtrout's excretions, a pre-spice mass is formed; at this "stage of fungusoid wild growth", gases are produced which result in "a characteristic 'blow', exchanging the material from deep underground for the matter on the surface above it". [11] [19] After exposure to sun and air, this mass becomes melange. [19] [11] Brian Herbert (2003). Dreamer of Dune: The Biography of Frank Herbert. Macmillan. ISBN 9781429958448.
