If you are in the ecosystem, and you are the kind of person who canceled Disney+ over the recent developments, this gives you something to seriously think about.

Though Benioff's shift mirrors Silicon Valley's broader accommodation of Trump, the exchange offered a rare glimpse of just how far that repositioning can go. The question now: will other Bay Area tech CEOs follow Benioff's lead and call for federal troops in their own backyard?

FBI takes down BreachForums portal used for Salesforce extortion

The FBI has seized last night all domains for the BreachForums hacking forum operated by the ShinyHunters group mostly as a portal for leaking corporate data stolen in attacks from ransomware and extortion gangs. Law enforcement authorities in the U.S. and France worked together to take control of BreachForums web infrastructure before the Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters hacker got to fulfill their threat of leaking data from Salesforce breaches at companies that did not pay a ransom.

Berlin just minted a new AI unicorn, and Nvidia’s behind it.

N8n, an open-source automation platform, just raised $180M from Nvidia and Deutsche Telekom, hitting a $2.5B valuation.

Here’s why it matters 👇

What I am really surprised about all this is that they want #Salesforce to pay. Interesting move.

Congrats to NYG. And it seems like they put the final nail into Wilson’s career coffin.

Thanks for the compliment and the journey in the memory lane. I appreciate you all. I did not want to break tradition, and wanted to sh*tpost off-topic, as we always do.

For example, Phantom was Kızılmaske, which means the red mask - literally translated. These comics had the line; “Kızılmaske ormanda bin aslana bedeldir!”. Which means; Phantom is as strong as 1,000 lions in the forest. There is no evidence that this line was in the original comic, BTW. Anyway ... +

Thanks, folks. Well, your line reminds of some of the comic books from my childhood, Christopher. For some reason, Turkey was dominated with translated Italian comics. One of these was Zagor. These comics were translated to Turkish with a lot of liberties. There were English-language comics, too. +
