Ok, i knew MGM was massive but I failed to understand the true scope. They have 48,000 rooms on the strip. As swansong mentioned, room keys are affected. My god. Imagine not being able to access your rooms at that scale.

If I was MGM I think my biggest worry would be the hackers having access to their CRM system. God only knows what is in their.

It's astonishing to me that hotel bookings, room keys, etc. aren't air gapped from gaming.

It was far too convenient, and an easy way to boost revenue, to instead integrate room keys, on-site bar & restaurant payments, and gaming machines. No need for Cleetus to pay Vegas foreign ATM fees when he runs out of cash at 3am. Hell, he doesn't even have to leave his seat at the video poker bar.

Huge hack at MGM Resorts. Everything is down, from website to scheduling to slot machines to room keys. Unsure if it's just the Vegas-based resorts or all of them (probably all of them).

Wow. This is going to cost them literally billions per day until it's restored.

Already back up by 1:30pm today.
 
Bill Maher is bringing his show back without writers. Kirsten Welker is going to interview Trump for her first Meet the Press.

It's sad and pathetic how the left just cannot get out of it's own way.

"I live in an occupied globalist country with corporate oligarchs in charge."

I mean. He's not wrong. His people did it.

The triangle of Jones, Limbaugh, and Dump being held up as a model by Putin's thugs is just so perfect. The Republicans are traitors. But the pathetic part is, they are Useful Idiots of a fascist enemy.

Bill Maher is not Left, he is just anti-Trump. He has been lurching Right ever since Ben Affleck pimpslapped him over his Islamophobia. And it is not a surprise he won't have writers, he basically told them they can phuck off and die on his podcast. When the strike is over no one is going to write for him...but I bet he is dying to get Drew Barrymore on and turn her into a martyr for doing exactly what he is doing. Lest we forget, this is the guy who railed on the Democrats because Blue States had strong rules on masks during the Pandemic which hurt his ticket sales.

Trump is the presumptive nominee, him being interviewed is not wrong. It is going to be the tenor of her questions that matter. If she lobs him softballs I am with you. If she remembers he hates her and her kind anyways and plays it fair then he walks out and we all get a great laugh. We can't just ignore him he is going to be the the candidate whilst indicted.

Unlike most of the people I see on Twatter (X) I will give Welker a chance. But, this better be the interview I have been waiting for and there is an incredibly high bar to clear. The media has been giving that clown a "bump up" over and over and over again. Remember that clown and that new rising star on CNN? Well, I do. The bar is high.
