Das Bild zeigt eine Sonnenblume in voller Blüte, deren leuchtend gelbe Blütenblätter im Vordergrund scharf und detailreich dargestellt sind. Im Zentrum der Blüte befindet sich der dunkelbraune, buschige Mittelblütenkranz, der mit Samen und Pollen bedeckt ist. Ein Bienenfliege ist auf dem Mittelblütenkranz zu sehen, was auf die Pollinierung hinweist. Der Hintergrund ist verschwommen und zeigt weitere Sonnenblumen, was auf eine Sonnenblumenwiese hinweist. Die Sonnenblume ist in einem warmen, natürlichen Licht gefilmt, das die Farben hervorhebt und eine ruhige, friedliche Atmosphäre schafft.

oh just wheel it off, it'll be fine

(cripes that looks like a lot of damage. Glad to read everything worked fine despite the accident.)

in reply to aeva

@aeva So am I! I had a lot of time to look at the wall I was heading towards, realise my steering wheel didn't work any more, and think "fuck this is going to hurt." It did indeed fucking hurt.

in reply to Oblomov

@oblomov @aeva Yup. There's a reinforced chassis member just in front of the pedal box, and it did its job. No pedal-box intrusion.

in reply to Tom Forsyth

that's a shame, sorry that happened, hope you're OK. Was that a Caterham or have you built it from scratch (just the exterior kit)?
in reply to Petrikas

@petrikas It was a genuine Caterham race car that we got - bizarrely - long story - from Bahrain. One of nine in the world. Now there's eight.
in reply to Tom Forsyth

Amazingly (and I was a bit distracted at the time and didn't notice) the guy in front of me spun at exactly the same point. He got lucky, spun the other direction, missed almost everything and lightly tapped the wall sideways. Something is bent in his steering, but he was able to drive it back in.
in reply to Tom Forsyth

For those who watch my videos - yes, you do know this car - it was Cem's #777. But he's bought a brand new car, and I bought his.

Feels good to be back in the saddle. Didn't even miss a race. Crazy.

RIP to the Heart Of Gold. Unrepairable unfortunately.

#777
in reply to Tom Forsyth

You can actually see the new #777 in that photo. He chose not to paint it. So now he's the Silver Surfer, and I inherit the mantle of The Red Baron.

in reply to Eniko Fox

@eniko Yeah, I'm sad I killed it. It's been a good and faithful friend to me for nine years, and saved me from my idiocy so many times.
in reply to Tom Forsyth

if it can't be fixed I guess you'd have to get a different kind of race car?
in reply to Eniko Fox

@eniko Gods no. I've been considering "what's my next car" for the last 5 years, tried a bunch, and they're all worse.

Nope, this is the one. I already know two ways to get a replacement Caterham, even if The Heart Of Gold can't be repaired.

in reply to Tom Forsyth

I’m glad you’re okay! Is the damage terminal, or will you be back on the track with some work?
in reply to Simon Rolfmore

@cloudthethings Unclear right now. There's no wheels or suspension on the front, the chassis is all fucked, so that will need complete replacement at minimum. Engine and gearbox might be OK - we need a closer inspection. Everywhere behind the pedal box is untouched - including me.
in reply to Tim Aidley

@planettimmy Absolutely - been non-optional for a decade now. HANS and arm restraints are requirements. The grid safety staff are very good about checking them while we're sitting on grid.

Come rendere belli e vivi spazi che erano abbandonati

- chiudere gli spazi alle auto

Sembra semplice, ma queste strade sembrano spazi che si trovano solo in nord-america. O no?

9 Times Street Artists Let Horses Run Wild on Walls: streetartutopia.com/2025/05/18…

Nikolaj Arndt in Neustadt, Germany.


Horse Art (9 Photos)


From cobbled alleys in Amsterdam to sunlit beaches and snowy Moscow nights, these nine horse-themed street artworks showcase the raw energy, grace, and symbolism of one of humanity’s oldest companions. You’ll find everything from 3D illusions rising from the pavement to towering silo murals glowing with emotion. Whether sculpted from sand, painted with photorealism, or rendered through abstract color fields, each piece reimagines the horse in its own way—playful, powerful, surreal, or poetic.

Coinbase conferma un data leak: social engineering, insider e ricatti milionari


Il 14 maggio 2025 Coinbase, una delle più grandi piattaforme di crypto trading al mondo, ha confermato pubblicamente di essere stata vittima di un sofisticato attacco interno orchestrato da cyber criminali che hanno corrotto alcuni operatori del supporto clienti. La notizia è stata accompagnata da una dichiarazione ufficiale sul blog aziendale e da una comunicazione formale alla U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), come previsto per eventi che possono influenzare significativamente gli investitori e il mercato.

Insiders: un’attacco tutt’altro che tecnologico


Nel post dal titolo “Protecting Our Customers – Standing Up to Extortionists”, Coinbase afferma che un gruppo di criminali informatici ha reclutato e corrotto operatori di supporto esterni, in particolare all’estero, per ottenere accesso ai sistemi interni. Utilizzando tali accessi, gli attaccanti hanno sottratto dati sensibili di un “piccolo sottoinsieme” di utenti per facilitare attacchi di social engineering.

Nessuna password, chiave privata o fondi è stata compromessa – precisa l’azienda – e gli account Coinbase Prime sono rimasti intatti.

Tuttavia, i dati sottratti sono stati sufficienti per permettere agli attori malevoli di ingannare alcuni utenti e estorcere fondi, attivando così un attacco a catena che ricalca le modalità degli attacchi orchestrati da gruppi come Scattered Spider e LAPSUS$.

Un ransomware mancato: rifiutato riscatto da 20 milioni di dollari


Coinbase ha anche rivelato di aver ricevuto una richiesta di riscatto da 20 milioni di dollari, che ha categoricamente rifiutato. Al contrario, l’azienda ha annunciato la creazione di un fondo premio da 20 milioni di dollari per chi fornirà informazioni utili all’identificazione, arresto e condanna dei responsabili.

Una mossa netta e simbolica, che posiziona Coinbase come un attore attivo nella lotta alla cyber-estorsione, scegliendo il confronto anziché la sottomissione.

Nel documento ufficiale pubblicato sul sito della SEC (Form 8-K), Coinbase specifica che:

  • L’incidente ha coinvolto un sottoinsieme limitato di clienti.
  • L’attacco è partito da attività illecite condotte da soggetti terzi esterni legati al customer support.
  • Non sono stati compromessi né asset finanziari né infrastrutture critiche.
  • L’azienda sta collaborando con forze dell’ordine e team di esperti forensi.
  • Nessun impatto materiale previsto sulle operazioni aziendali o sulla sicurezza dei fondi.

L’incidente rientra in un trend preoccupante nel panorama cyber globale: l’uso di insider compromessi per bypassare i sistemi di sicurezza più sofisticati. È lo stesso schema adottato negli attacchi subiti da LastPass, Uber, e più recentemente da Microsoft, con attori che sfruttano l’anello debole della catena umana piuttosto che le vulnerabilità tecniche.

Sebbene Coinbase abbia dimostrato trasparenza e fermezza nella gestione della crisi, l’episodio rappresenta l’ennesima dimostrazione che nessuna piattaforma – per quanto blindata – è immune all’errore umano o al tradimento interno.

In un settore già sotto scrutinio per volatilità e regolamentazione incerta, episodi come questo contribuiscono ad alimentare diffidenza e ad aumentare la pressione su exchange e operatori del settore affinché rafforzino le difese sociali, non solo quelle digitali.

La Russia non ha fretta

Il fatto che i colloqui di pace tra Kiev e Mosca arrivino a svolgersi a Istanbul, rende chiaro come e quanto le cose siano messe militarmente male per l'Ucraina. Di recente, il 10 maggio, i quattro capi di Stato e di governo europei, che in un gesto di solidarietà si erano recati nella capitale ucraina, insieme al loro omologo Zelensky, come precondizione per qualsiasi colloquio, hanno chiesto un cessate il fuoco di 30 giorni. Questo cessate il fuoco incondizionato e completo darebbe "una possibilità alla diplomazia", ha chiesto Zelensky alla presenza del primo ministro britannico Starmer, del presidente francese Macron, del primo ministro polacco Tusk e del vicecancelliere tedesco Merz.

Das Bild zeigt einen Vogel, der auf einer Metallrasternarbe eines Bootes sitzt. Der Vogel ist schwarz mit einem gelben Bauch und einem roten Fleck auf dem Kopf. Er hat lange, schmale Flügel und einen langen Schwanz. Im Hintergrund sind Teile eines Bootes zu sehen, einschließlich einer weißen Wand und Metallrastern. Ein blaues Tuch und ein Seil sind ebenfalls sichtbar. Die Umgebung deutet auf einen Hafen oder eine maritime Umgebung hin.

“Another glitch video was posted by Leo Humphries, who donned a suit and tie for an interview for a job as a news reporter. But Humphries can be seen furrowing his brow as he realizes his interviewer ‘sounds robotic’ and is not the actual hiring manager he had thought he would be speaking with.
