• Picrew full body avatar modeled after myself, but looking cooler. A young woman sitting on the ground, one hand used to prop herself up, the other is doing the devil horns. Feet are in front of her, so her knees are up towards her chest. She is wearing black short clothes, ripped tights, black combat boots a washed out black jacket and a black collar. Long black hair with purple streaks in the front, blue eyes and red lips. The background is red with scattered pink dots for contrast. (remote)

• The FTX Group stored the private keys to its crypto assets in its cloud computing environment, which included over one thousand servers and related system architecture, services, and databases that it leased from Amazon Web Services (the “AWS account”). AWS’s cloud computing platform offers businesses a range of infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), platform-as-a- service (PaaS), and software-as-a-service (SaaS) capabilities, and through it, like other businesses, the FTX Group customized, configured, and controlled its own cloud environment.

• Second, the FTX Group failed to adopt certain standard controls in order to ensure the integrity of its code.42 For example, there was no effective process for securely introducing, updating, or patching software, and no procedures, such as scanning, to continually ensure the integrity of the code running on FTX Group servers. Thus, among many other harms, the FTX Group was highly vulnerable to software “supply chain” attacks in which malicious actors insert vulnerabilities into third-party software in order to compromise any organization that uses the software.43 Furthermore, with only minimal code review and testing procedures in place, and no focus on continuous security testing, the FTX Group did not review, test, or otherwise deploy its code in a manner that sufficiently ensured that it was functioning as expected and free of vulnerabilities that might be leveraged by malicious actors.

It is one of my favorite songs and since I saw recordings from their concerts way back in like 2014 or so, where they brought the owl suit with them, I soooo wanted to see it live as well.

You can hear the full song and see Barbagianni in all it's glory here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miekjLzzCDk
(If you don't understand Italian, best but on the English subtitles.)

I am back from seeing Nanowar Of Steel and it was a blast! I only had one wish: Barbagianni!!!
They played "Il Cacciatore Della Notte", and when the owl appeared, all was good. I can die happy now. :blobcat_tears:

Attachments:

• a Sovereign class ship; it's got no neck, and the deflector dish is just smushed up against the main saucer; lots of streamlining to make it look fast and swept-back but it's too much (remote)
• the Enterprise-C, an Ambassador-class ship, somewhat similar to Picard's Enterprise-D in color but with a more classic round deflector dish and more traditional neck; the nacelle pylons are at right angles like the Excelsior class (Enterprise-B) (remote)
