Flying kites through a solar eclipse - even if just a partial one - is a unique experience. The uncanny, strange light makes everything really special ... and unforgettable.

Someone was flying a lighted #kite over the beach after the #eclipse. When I took a video, A #perseid meteor took the stage mid-time.

I see your solar eclipse and raise you a flying LED trilobite #kite @kap_jasa

Security Week 2632: массовый угон криптовалюты у пользователей кошельков COLDCARD

Громкой новостью прошлой недели стала массовая кража криптовалюты у пользователей холодных кошельков COLDCARD. Хотя в теории холодные кошельки (аппаратные устройства, хранящие данные для доступа к криптовалюте) лучше защищены от кибератак, но в реальности COLDCARD подвела ошибка при реализации криптографического алгоритма: вместо надежной аппаратной генерации случайных чисел использовалась программная реализация, результаты работы которой могли быть предсказаны. Злоумышленник смог реконструировать так называемый сид, открывающий доступ ко всем сохраненным на кошельках секретам, для большого количества кошельков,. Правильность вычисления сида могла быть проконтролирована путем сверки с публичными данными, включая историю транзакций в биткоинах. Имея на руках всю необходимую информацию, организатору атаки оставалось перевести средства на собственные кошельки. Точно оценить итоговый ущерб пока затруднительно, но по данным на 1 августа было украдено 1367 биткоинов с 4585 адресов, это примерно соответствует 88 миллионам долларов.

Hej little fellow, nice kite you have! :BlobhajTinyHeart:

And you, that is a great flying hammock! :blobhaj_pride:

More campus testing this evening with the Kite Drone - poor winds made for difficult flying but managed some test shots with updated software. A proper sortie to the Dales (at long last) and back to Cornwall soon.

While my kite photos meet with complete indifference on BlueSky and Instagram (and I admit test shots are not always wildly exciting), I still think this has been a very cool project. Funding ends today, but work continues well into next year...

We managed to annoy a Giant.

Check out the crazy story of the Giant of Lake Cerknica spitting at and swatting away the cameras flying high above him and his home - the amazing marvel of Nature, the largest intermittent lake in Europe.

I send thanks to the buyer from Pennsylvania who purchased a coffee mug of

Summer Breeze -- https://fineartamerica.com/featured/summer-breeze-steve-henderson.html?product=coffee-mug

May every relaxing sip from the cup take you back to lazy summer days.

Rab is an island of contrasts, of antagonisms. A never ending fight of light and darkness defines its geography, its biology, and its history. Land versus sea. Forest versus stone. Memory versus bliss.

Every time we go to South Carolina, kiddo wants to fly a kite. So we take them to the beach, and I end up flying the kite.
And I am fine with this.

Long weekend read: together with Zmajoljupci - Croatian kite association we were invited to the island of Rab, Croatia, to show what a kite festival might look like. We did our best - and it seems a brand new festival was born!

Into the blue - The Kite Drone in action this morning #kite #drone #aviation #technology #flight #sky #blue

Here is 1' 30" of wind and sky to calm your feed.

The broomstick flies! 🧹 After the highly disappointing initial flight, resulting in structural cracks, this was hugely better (and a real relief).This new system actually does balance in the air, and is far more robust than the picavet. First real test as well using the smaller camera sensor - not as crisp, lens-wise, but the robust auto focus is welcome.

v2.1! A single test flight yielded every engineer's nightmare, structural stress cracks, so rebuilt the Kite Drone with significantly stronger mounts and (not-pictured) foam bumpers. Hurling it around and dragging it along the floor - aka ground testing - has gone well, so I might fly again soon...

A report from the most insane, exhausting, fun, and amazing kite making weekend: Art kamp Maribor!

Came across a #kite stuck in a tree. 🤔
What could be done in this situation? Only wrong answers please

Ich habe in der Wikipedia einen Artikel geschrieben über den Drachen-Club-Deutschland e.V (DCD).
Da ich erst Ende der 80er Mitglied wurde fehlen mir die internen Vereinsnachrichten "Hoch-Hinaus aktuell" der Jahre 1984 - 1989.
Da mir diese Quellen fehlen, konnte ich die Vereinsvorstände der ersten Jahre nicht ermitteln.
Hat jemand dazu Informationen oder noch die alten Vereinshefte?

From the digital to the actual - Kite Drone v2.0 now built! Aiming for a test flight tomorrow, in the hefty winds it was designed to handle.

As an explainer, this rig hangs below the lifting kite, like a plumb line, and is stabilised aerodynamically by the fins at the rear. The camera is a staring, sideways looking unit, and has the same compute module as the previous version of Kite Drone - analysing the scene before it.

HIer eine KiteZone ohne Kites an einem kalten Wintertag. Es gab zwar Wind, aber keine Menschen, die zum Kite Surfen an diesen See wollten.

(das Bild wurde bereits schon mal gepostet, passt aber zu gut zu diesem Thema)

Parasailing over the beach in Đà Nẵng, for #MeerMittwoch and #FotoVorschlag (“Drachen” / Kites). A parasail is just a giant kite you can ride, right?

At the foot of the distant mountains you can also glimpse the colossal Quan Am statue, a.k.a. Lady Buddha, which at 67 meters high (220 feet) is the tallest statue in Vietnam.
