Akamai has been doing this for years now. Cloudflare is just playing catch-up. I first saw an Akamai demonstration of this at one of their developer conferences about 10 years ago.

Apparently it was a test of a helicopter machine gun mounted on a swivel turret:

Get ready to face DUI charges when you take cough medicine, eat some overripe fruit, or have some yogurt, among other things. Trace amounts of alcohol exist in a number of foods, so you could easily fail a 0.0 test by simply eating breakfast.


They very well could have grounded it on purpose after it was attacked. Better that, if possible, for potential salvage afterwards instead of having it under dozens of meters of water.


From what I can see that appears to be all from one ship. I want to see what happened to all of them, especially if they’re all anchored or adrift because of the damage.


I’d love to see a daytime reconnaissance flight over these fleets.



Converted to English for folks.


From the video it looks like most of the drones are specifically targeting the bridges of the ships. If they’re able to both eliminate qualified bridge crews (and discouraging replacements), and disabling the ships themselves without causing them to leak crude into the ocean then that’s a huge multi-pronged win in my book.


After Ukraine finishes its current round of attacks on the Russian shadow fleet they should send a strongly worded letter to Greece basically saying “You’re next if you keep transporting Russian oil”.


The pressure Ukraine is putting on Russia is insane. Between reports like this and targeting refineries east of the Urals it’s becoming quite obvious that nothing Russian is safe at this point.


Well Ukrainian drones at least.


Give it a little time.


Furthermore, it is the only Russian refinery that produces cracking catalysts, which are components that other facilities depend on for secondary oil refining.
So an even bigger win for Ukraine if this indirectly reduces refining even more at other locations.


The strikes have hit the unit’s process columns. The refinery
hasa capacity of 8.4 million metric tons of crude oil per year.

Man Ukraines intelligence gathering related to targets is downright impressive.


#1 can be especially important in places like the northeast US where some houses still have 100 year old knob & tube wiring. When we bought our house in a Boston suburb 10 years ago it still had some live knob & tube. Our insurance company required us to remove it all & replace it.


Guy gets shot and the impact sends him flying across the room, out the window, etc. Physics says “oh hell no”. The guy who fired that shot would have likely had his arm dislocated from the recoil if he was able to even hold onto it.


I’d be very careful about using copper this way. While ingesting small amounts of copper is ok, and in fact a good part of a diet, Ingesting too much copper is not a good thing, and can be toxic.
Having copper piping, etc. in close proximity to a garden risks having it leach into the plants, which might then be ingested. Since copper is a fairly soft metal then rain could slowly corrode it and introduce it to the plants.
A bit more on copper toxicology here.
Just wait until winter to see how well folks can heat their homes…
