Russia-Ukraine aside, I don't think big, obvious county-vs-country war is a thing anymore, when it comes to the top handful of countries.
.
That's why I find it more likely 1 nuke is slipped in and set off, with mystery/debate/uncertainty over who done it is more likely than what a conventional strike would look like.  Another way that I find more likely is one country hacking another's weapons systems and getting them to nuke themselves.
.
Both scenarios, however unlikely, are absolutely less % chance of "mutually assured destruction."  Both have deniability built in.

I vaguely recall that any nuclear blast leaves a signature that can be traced back to its origins. Each source of plutonium has different combinations of isotopes and heavy elements that gives away its source. 

Btw I can’t move my data to any kind of personal cloud either. I’ll probably have to end up emailing it to myself to get any personal data off my pc, which as you know sending attachments via email is not secure. 

If anyone asked me in say 1980 the odds a nuke would be detonated in anger by 2023, I'd have said "near 100%".  I thought we were running out of oil also.

The future doesn't scare me, maybe it should

If it did any good, I'd be scared.  The national debt thing worries me coupled with the incompetents we have in DC.  China worries me. 

I think we had some "competents" in Congress back in the day, a few of them, enough to matter at times, folks like Sam Nunn who I liked quite a bit.  Some others were willing to compromise, Tip O'Neill and Reagan for example.  

My theory is both parties have learned they do better by keeping us polarized, and the presence of social media and the national "news" media contribute a lot to that.  If "we" are convinced we must HATE DESPISE LOATHE the other Party, we donate/volunteer/vote for "our team", and we don't want ANY compromise that could help the other team.  It's like OSU-UM in a sense, you WANT the other team to lose every game.

I see folks on FB constantly deriding the other side (and ignoring the problems with their side), same on any other social media I might see.  I think "we" used to be 15% on each side die hard partisan, and now it's closer to 30% on each side.  They'd poke a stick in their own eye if they thought it would harm the other Side.
