💥 Saratov, Ryazan, Tula and Volgograd overnight!

‼️ Belozerskaya 750 kV substation in the Vologda region was attacked.

🦅 UAVs struck energy infrastructure in the Volgograd region.

🔥 Ryazan, locals report a fire near the refinery.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: A rescue operation is underway in Dnipro. Overnight, Russia struck the city, hitting an apartment building. As of now, 11 people have been reported wounded, including children.
Unfortunately, one person has been killed.

Tragically, one life was also lost in the Kharkiv region, and people were also injured in the Kyiv and Poltava regions.

There must be a European decision on Russia’s frozen assets, additional sanctions, and support and reinforcement for Ukraine’s defense.

Between the Roman stuff, the Charlemagne stuff, the Holy Roman stuff, even the Napoleon stuff, and the general Fairy Tale vibe of this whole section of the Rhine, and with the way my life has been forcibly uprooted, and having to start from 0 so many times, and a hedgehog waddles across the terrace to eat, and keep me company, I sometimes really do feel like I've stumbled bass ack wards into some kind of fairy tale, and hope that this is my happily ever after, even tho it's dark, and the night is full of terrors, and cold, the cold that seeps into your bones kind of cold, and it's starting to fog, because I really don't want to die in burst of ultra high energy particles, or worse, ekeing out an existence in the decaying rubble of the collapse... . 🧚 🦔

Stamattina mi girava in testa la "polta infernal" delle streghe del Macbeth di Verdi, così ve la condivido e buongiornissimo...

Questo è il momento.
Su via! sollecite giriam la pentola,
Mesciamvi in circolo possenti intingoli:
Sirocchie, all'opera! l'acqua già fuma,
Crepita e spuma.
(gettando nella caldaia)

I.
Tu, rospo venefico
Che suggi l'aconito,
Tu, vepre, tu, radica
Sbarbata al crepuscolo
Va', cuoci e gorgoglia
Nel vaso infernal.

II.
Tu, lingua di vipera,
Tu, pelo di nottola,
Tu, sangue di scimmia,
Tu, dente di botolo,
Va', bolli e t'avvoltola
Nel brodo infernal.

III.
Tu, dito d'un pargolo
Strozzato nel nascere.
Tu, labbro d'un Tartaro,
Tu, cuor d'un eretico,
Va'dentro, e consolida
La polta infernal.

From "This Day in History" on FB:

"She left civilization to live in the forest with a lynx, a wild boar, and a thieving crow. Scientists called her crazy. She proved them wrong.

In 1975, a young Polish scientist named #SimonaKossak made a decision that baffled everyone who knew her.

She had a doctorate. She had credentials. She came from one of Poland's most prestigious artistic families—her grandfather was Wojciech Kossak, the legendary painter whose work hung in museums.

She could have had a comfortable university position. A modern apartment in Warsaw. A conventional career studying nature from a safe distance.
Instead, Simona packed a single bag and walked into the #bialowiezaforest
And she stayed there for thirty years.

Białowieża is no ordinary forest. It's the last remaining fragment of the primeval wilderness that once covered all of Europe—ancient, untouched, older than recorded history.

From "This Day in History" on FB:

"She left civilization to live in the forest with a lynx, a wild boar, and a thieving crow. Scientists called her crazy. She proved them wrong.

In 1975, a young Polish scientist named #SimonaKossak made a decision that baffled everyone who knew her.

She had a doctorate. She had credentials. She came from one of Poland's most prestigious artistic families—her grandfather was Wojciech Kossak, the legendary painter whose work hung in museums.

Białowieża is no ordinary forest. It's the last remaining fragment of the primeval wilderness that once covered all of Europe—ancient, untouched, older than recorded history. Trees there grow so tall they seem to hold up the sky. Wolves still howl at night. European bison, extinct almost everywhere else, roam freely.
It's the kind of place where you can still hear what the world sounded like before humans started building cities.

Simona found a small wooden cabin deep in the forest's heart. No electricity. No running water. No neighbors for miles.
Just trees. Silence. And the wild things.
Most people would have lasted a week.

Simona lasted decades.

But she wasn't alone.

She shared her bed with a lynx named Żabka. Not a pet—lynxes can't be pets. But Żabka had been orphaned as a cub, and Simona raised her. The massive cat would curl up beside her at night, purring like distant thunder.

She rescued a wild boar named Żabka who followed her through the forest like a devoted dog, grunting softly when she spoke.

And then there was Korasek.
Korasek was a crow—but not just any crow. He was brilliant, mischievous, and absolutely devoted to chaos. He'd dive-bomb cyclists riding through the forest, steal shiny objects from tourists' pockets, and bring Simona "gifts": coins, buttons, pieces of foil.

He'd sit on her shoulder while she worked, cawing commentary on everything she did.

The locals whispered that Simona was a witch. How else could you explain it? Animals followed her. Birds landed on her outstretched hand. Deer approached without fear.

She spoke to them, and somehow, impossibly, they seemed to understand.
But Simona wasn't casting spells.
She was listening.

Most people walk through nature talking, making noise, asserting their presence. Simona did the opposite. She learned to move quietly, to observe patiently, to let the forest teach her its rhythms.

She studied animal behavior not from textbooks, but by living among them. She documented species that had never been properly observed. She proved that wild animals weren't just instinct-driven automatons—they had personalities, emotions, complex social structures.
Her research changed how scientists understood wildlife.

But her most important work wasn't in journals.

It was in the forest itself.

Because while Simona was studying nature, others were trying to destroy it.
#LoggingCompanies wanted to cut down the #AncientTrees. Developers wanted to build roads through the #wilderness.

Bureaucrats argued that the forest was "too wild," that it needed to be "managed," controlled, made productive.

Simona fought them all.

She wrote letters. She filed lawsuits. She gave interviews where she spoke bluntly about what would be lost if the forest fell.

She stood in front of bulldozers.
She made powerful enemies.
She didn't care.

"This forest has survived for ten thousand years," she'd say. "Who are we to decide it should end on our watch?"

Her cabin became a symbol. Journalists came from across Europe to photograph the woman who lived with wild animals. Documentaries were made. Her story spread.

And slowly, the tide began to turn.
Public opinion shifted. International pressure mounted. UNESCO got involved. The ancient forest, in large part because of Simona's tireless advocacy, gained greater protections.

The trees she loved were saved.
Simona Kossak lived in that cabin until 2007, when illness finally forced her back to the city. She died in 2007, at the age of 71.

But her legacy didn't die with her.
Today, Białowieża Forest stands as one of Europe's last true wildernesses—a living monument to what the continent once was. Tourists walk trails where Simona once walked with Żabka the lynx. Bison graze in meadows she fought to protect.

Scientists still study the forest using methods she pioneered.

And somewhere in those ancient trees, maybe, a descendant of Korasek steals something shiny from an unsuspecting hiker.

Simona Kossak proved something the modern world desperately needs to remember:

That you don't have to choose between science and intuition. Between civilization and wilderness. Between being human and being part of nature.

She proved that sometimes the most rigorous science comes from simply paying attention. That the deepest understanding comes from respect, not dominance.

She proved that one person, living authentically and fighting fiercely for what they love, can change the fate of an entire ecosystem.

They called her a witch because she spoke to animals.

She called herself a scientist because she listened.

And she spent thirty years in a cabin without electricity, surrounded by wild things, protecting an ancient forest from a modern world that had forgotten how to be still.

Simona Kossak wasn't running away from civilization.

She was protecting something far more valuable than anything civilization could offer.

And because of her, that forest still stands."

Уже два года россияне успешно защищают Байкал. Неравнодушные граждане не дают Госдуме принять законопроект о сплошных рубках леса по берегам озера.

Поддерживать гражданское общество и реально влиять на решения властей помогает экологическое издание «Кедр». Это медиа не только пишет о проблемах природы, но и прямо защищает ее. Например:

🐻 «Кедр» первым обратил внимание на предложение Минприроды разрешить охоту на медведей зимой — когда они спят. После широкой кампании против инициатива была отклонена. [strong]🌳[/strong] Другая история — депутаты пытались разрешить ликвидацию заповедников. «Кедр» и экологи призвали завалить чиновников обращениями — больше 8 тысяч человек сделали это, и законопроект завернули.

«Кедр.медиа» помогал защищать городские парки, изъять Красную книгу из ведения департамента охоты и многое другое.

ABCCAD is Voxels Meets Legos in AR

We get it, CAD software can be daunting to learn. Somehow [Boaztheostrich] found it so daunting he procrastinated his way into a AR voxel-based CAD app he calls “ABCCAD”, written in Godot for the Meta Quest 3.

The app is simplicity itself: pressing A or X on the controller spawns a cube, which you can place wherever you like in virtual space by moving the controller in real space. The trigger then saves the cube position. Grabbing a cube uses the controller’s grab buttons. You can even change colors (with B or Y), but like in OpenSCAD it appears that’s not actually going to have any effect on the exported STL. Check it out in action in the demo video embedded below.

Making Steam-Powered LEGO Machines

Over the decades we have seen a lot of methods for powering LEGO-based contraptions, ranging from LEGO Technic pneumatics to electric motors, but what about steam power? We have all seen those cute little model steam engines that can definitely put out some power. Sure, you can just drop those in like a kind of confused internal combustion engine, or you can try to make a steam engine that actually tries to be directly compatible with LEGO.

While exploring this topic, [Jamie’s Brick Jams] on YouTube found that the primary concern here is simply the very hot steam produced by the boiler. While not a surprise to anyone who has ever run a model steam engine, this poses a major challenge to the thermoplastics used by LEGO.

Making Steam-Powered LEGO Machines

Obviously a boiler cannot be made out of plastic, but the steam turbine can. That said, material selection here is key, as the hot, wet steam produced by the boiler demolishes PLA parts and ruined the original and very unsafe copper boiler in the process. Ultimately a LEGO Technic-compatible steam turbine was printed in high temperature resistant PAHT-CF and PC filament, which enables a steam-powered LEGO walker to come to life, albeit with a distinct lack of power.

Model steam engine enthusiasts are of course quick to point out that you should try to create dry steam through superheating, definitely add a safety valve and so on, all of which should make for an even more powerful and safe LEGO steam engine. For a rundown of how steam engines work, [Lawrie] did an excellent video on the basics a while back, as well as a video playlist full of demonstrations of both classical Mamod model engines and questionable modern takes.

Suffice it to say that although model steam engines look like toys, they involve fire, hot steam and other fascinating ways to melt things, light them on fire and cause painful injuries, so definitely follow a safety briefing before attempting any of it at home.

2025 Component Abuse Challenge: Overdriven LEDs Outshine the Sun

A drone is shown hovering in the sky, with two bright lights shining from its underside.

Tagging wildlife is never straightforward in the best of times, but it becomes a great deal more complicated when you’re trying to track flying insects. Instead of trying to use a sensor package, [DeepSOIC] attached tiny, light retroreflectors to bees and hornets, then used a pulsed infrared light mounted on a drone to illuminate them. Two infrared cameras on the drone track the bright dot that indicates the insect, letting the drone follow it. To get a spot bright enough to track in full sunlight, though, [DeepSOIC] had to drive some infrared LEDs well above their rated tolerances.

Share Your Projects: Imperfectionism

Everyone has a standard for publishing projects, and they can get pretty controversial. We see a lot of people complain about hacks embedded in YouTube videos, social media threads, Discord servers, Facebook posts, IRC channels, different degrees of open-sourcing, licenses, searchability, and monetization. I personally have my own share of frustrations with a number of these factors.

It’s common to believe that hacking as a culture doesn’t thrive until a certain set of conditions is met, and everyone has their own set of conditions in mind. My own dealbreaker, as you might’ve seen, is open-sourcing of code and hardware alike – I think that’s a sufficiently large barrier for hacking being repeatable, and repeatability is a big part of how hacking culture spreads.

This kind of belief is often self-limiting. Many people believe that their code or PCB source file is not a

Share Your Projects: Imperfectionism

This kind of belief is often self-limiting. Many people believe that their code or PCB source file is not a good contribution to hacking culture unless it meets a certain cleanliness or completeness standard. This is understandable, and I do that, too.

Today, I’d like to argue against my own view, and show how imperfect publishing helps build hacking culture despite its imperfections. Let’s talk about open-source in context of 3D printing.

The Snazzy Ugly Duckling

One little-spoken aspect of 3D printing is how few models are open-source. Printable models published exclusively as STLs are commonplace, STEPs are much less popular, and from my experience, it’s soul-crushingly rare to see a source file attached to a model on Printables. I struggle to say that’s a good thing, and quite obviously, that negatively impacts 3D printing culture – getting into 3D modeling is that much harder if you can’t reference the sources for 95% of models you might get inspired by.

Of course, part of that is that 3D CADs are overwhelmingly closed-source paid software, and there are like five different ones with roughly equal shares of usage. It’s hard to meaningfully share sources from within a paywalled siloized market. Also, unlike software source code, STLs are very much cross-platform. Electronics has a way better analogy for STLs, they’re just like gerbers – gerbers are easy to export, and to inexperienced people, they’ll feel like all that anyone would ever need.

For a quick example – out of these eight Printables models taken at random, only the “drawers mini-cabinet” has a source file attached.

Then, there’s a self-consciousness and perfectionism. While rare, I’ve seen “I will clean this up and publish later” happen in 3D printing spaces too – it’s a thoroughly non-viable promise there too, but I get why people say that, I’ve personally made and failed on such promises a good few times myself. I’m glad that this isn’t a popular excuse so far, but, as more people adopt OpenSCAD, Blender, and FreeCAD, with their universally-accessible files, maybe we’ll see it resurface.

Asking for 3D model sources should probably become part of hacker culture, just like it helped with software. I don’t think it’s great that 3D printing so often implies closed-source 3D models, and undoubtedly that has limited the growth of 3D modeling as a hobby. I strongly wish I could git clone the 3D model projects I find online, and there’s a whole lot of models that are useless to me because I can’t git clone and modify them.

At the same time? 3D printing carries the hacker flag quite strongly, despite the imperfections, and you can notice it by just how often 3D printing appears on our pages. We can and should point at aspects of hacker culture that 3D printing doesn’t yet represent, and while at it, we benefit from the technology, as much as its imperfections hurt us.

Where Is Hackerdom Found?

Would I argue the same about Discord servers? Mastodon-hosted threads? YouTube videos? GitHub repos with barely-documented code? For sure. There’s no shortage of criticism about those, mostly about accessibility issues. Servers and videos are often not externally discoverable, which is surprisingly painful for hacker culture’s ability to thrive and grow. At the very least, we are badly missing out – for instance, I’d say Discord servers and YouTube videos alike are in dire need of external log/transcript hosting capabilities, and tech-oriented Discord servers specifically could benefit from public logs in the same way that modern Discourse forums have them from the get-go.

That’s for the disadvantages. As for upsides, YouTube videos make hardware hacking into entertainment for potential hackers not enthralled by scrolling through a blog interspersed with pictures, and, they position hacking culture in front of people who’d otherwise miss out on it. Let’s take [DIY Perks], a hugely popular YouTube channel. Would that dual-screen laptop build we covered have worked out great as a blog post, or maybe as a dual post-video, as some hackers do? For sure. At the same time, it gets hacking in front of people’s faces.

Discord blows as a platform, and I’ve written a fair bit about just how much it blows. One such snippet is in the article I wrote about the Beepy project, where the Discord server was crucial to growing Beepy as a community-contributed project. Would people benefit from the Beepy project having publicly available logs? Most certainly, and I’d argue it’s hurt the Beepy project being more externally discoverable. Is that all?

Discord has been an unprecedented communications platform for the Beepy project, and we’d outright lose out if there weren’t hardware hacking communities thriving on Discord, like Hackaday Discord does. I think we should remedy these kinds of problems by building helper tools and arguing for better cultural norms, just like we did with software licenses, because giving up on platforms like Discord currently has a significantly subpar cost-benefit analysis.

What about imperfect code? Sometimes, a hacker figures out a small part of a sensor’s protocol or a basic feature, and as much as the code might be insufficient or hastily written, they publish it. Have you ever stumbled upon such a repository? I have, sometimes I was happy, and sometimes I was disappointed, but either which way, such code tend to require extra work. In the end, I’ve noticed that it almost always helped way more than it hurt, which in turn has eventually led to me publishing more and more.

I think we’d benefit from a culture where “publish later after cleanup” is replaced by “here’s the code, and I might push some cleanup commits later”. It’s a better contribution to hacker culture and to people who enjoy your work, and the “might” part makes it more honest. It’ll also get your publishing muscles in better shape so that you’re quick to post about things you really ought to post about. For what it’s worth, I don’t think it hurts if this is assisted by social media likes, too.

Strength Through Presence

Survival of hacker culture has so far heavily relied on its presence in media all across, and an ability to press the “maybe I can hack too” button in other people’s brains through that presence. That said, every non-open 3D model, Discord server with non-public logs, YouTube channel with non-transcribed videos, or a completely ephemeral TikTok channel, still palpably paves a way for future hackers to join our communities, wherever hackerdom might be within ten years’ time.

I think the key to informational impedance mismatches is making it easier for people to meet the high standards we expect, and helping people meet them where appropriate, in large part, by example. It looks like hacking is strongest when present everywhere, even when some seams, and I hope that this kind of overwhelming presence helps us overcome modern-day unique cultural hurdles in a way we couldn’t hope for just a decade ago.

Cisco risolve vulnerabilità critiche in ASA, DTD e Unified Contact Center Express

Cisco ha reso noto recentemente di aver scoperto una nuova tipologia di attacco informatico mirato a compromettere i dispositivi che operano con i software Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) e Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD). I bug rilevati dal ricercatore di sicurezza Jahmel Harris sono monitorati con i codici CVE-2025-20333 e CVE-2025

Cisco risolve vulnerabilità critiche in ASA, DTD e Unified Contact Center Express

Mentre lo sfruttamento riuscito di CVE-2025-20333 consente a un aggressore di eseguire codice arbitrario come rootutilizzando richieste HTTP contraffatte, attraverso il CVE-2025-20362 si può accedere a un URL limitato senza autenticazione. i prodotti interessati sono:

Cisco Unified CCX versione 15.0 (corretto in 15.0 ES01)
Cisco Unified CCX versione 12.5 SU3 e precedenti (corretto in 12.5 SU3 ES07)

L’aggiornamento arriva mentre Cisco ha risolto due falle di sicurezza critiche in Unified Contact Center Express (Unified CCX) che potrebbero consentire a un aggressore remoto non autenticato di caricare file arbitrari, aggirare l’autenticazione, eseguire comandi arbitrari ed elevare i privilegi a root.

“Questo attacco può causare il ricaricamento inaspettato dei dispositivi non aggiornati, dando luogo a condizioni di negazione del servizio (DoS)”, riporta Cisco allertando le aziende di effettuare le attività di patching quanto prima.

Entrambe le vulnerabilità sono state divulgate alla fine di settembre 2025, ma non prima di essere sfruttate come vulnerabilità zero-day in attacchi che veicolano malware come RayInitiator e LINE VIPER , secondo il National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) del Regno Unito.

Oltre alle due vulnerabilità, Cisco ha distribuito patch per un bug DoS di gravità elevata (CVE-2025-20343, punteggio CVSS: 8,6) in Identity Services Engine (ISE) che potrebbe consentire a un aggressore remoto non autenticato di causare il riavvio imprevisto di un dispositivo vulnerabile.

“Questa vulnerabilità è dovuta a un errore logico durante l’elaborazione di una richiesta di accesso RADIUS per un indirizzo MAC che è già un endpoint rifiutato”, si legge nell’avviso di CISCO . “Un aggressore potrebbe sfruttare questa vulnerabilità inviando una sequenza specifica di più messaggi di richiesta di accesso RADIUS contraffatti a Cisco ISE.”

Sebbene non vi siano prove che una delle tre falle di sicurezza sia stata sfruttata indiscriminatamente, è essenziale che gli utenti applichino gli aggiornamenti il prima possibile per una protezione ottimale.

Controllano gli aggiornamenti, correggono i bug, esaminano le modifiche apportate da altri e monitorano la compatibilità dei componenti. Questo lavoro viene spesso svolto volontariamente, portando a burnout e perdita di interesse. I manutentori diventano eroi invisibili, senza i quali qualsiasi soluzione software si degrada rapidamente.

Rust ha dovuto affrontare sfide simili da tempo. Nel 2024, uno degli ingegneri a capo del progetto affermò che il numero di partecipanti che abbandonavano la community a causa dell’esaurimento emotivo era molto alto e che molti di quelli rimasti erano sull’orlo del baratro. Pertanto, ricompense simboliche come gadget gratuiti non vengono più prese sul serio: sono necessari veri e propri meccanismi di supporto.

La presidente del consiglio di amministrazione della Rust Foundation, Nell Shamrell-Harrington, ha sottolineato che il destino di qualsiasi progetto open source dipende dalle persone che ne garantiscono il funzionamento quotidiano. Secondo lei, il linguaggio non può evolversi e rimanere sicuro senza un sistema sostenibile di supporto per i suoi manutentori. Il nuovo programma mira a creare le condizioni affinché i manutentori del codice possano farlo in modo permanente.

Sebbene fosse stata promessa la massima trasparenza possibile nell’implementazione, la fonte dei finanziamenti e il processo di distribuzione rimangono poco chiari. I giornalisti hanno inviato richieste di informazioni sulla provenienza dei fondi e sui meccanismi di selezione dei partecipanti, ma non hanno ancora ricevuto risposta. La fondazione ha promesso di divulgare i dettagli solo man mano che le prime fasi del programma saranno sviluppate e di pubblicare una tempistica di lancio.

Il problema, tra l’altro, si estende ben oltre un singolo linguaggio. Alla conferenza State of Open 2025, gli esperti hanno discusso delle crescenti aspettative di utenti e aziende, che richiedono nuove funzionalità ma raramente forniscono risorse. Nel luglio dello stesso anno, GitHub ha pubblicato un rapporto in cui riconosceva che la maggior parte dei progetti open source continua a soffrire di una carenza di finanziamenti.

La creazione del Maintainers Fund può essere considerata un tentativo di cambiare la situazione in almeno un segmento dell’ecosistema. I rappresentanti della Rust Foundation riconoscono che non esistono soluzioni universali: ogni iniziativa richiede un approccio flessibile e la considerazione delle esigenze specifiche della comunità. Il loro obiettivo è semplice: fornire a coloro che mantengono Rust stabile e dinamico una base permanente per il loro lavoro e una meritata ricompensa per il loro impegno, finora passato in gran parte inosservato.

Japan’s Forgotten Analog HDTV Standard Was Well Ahead Of Its Time

When we talk about HDTV, we’re typically talking about any one of a number of standards from when television made the paradigm switch from analog to digital transmission. At the dawn of the new millenium, high-definition TV was a step-change for the medium, perhaps the biggest leap forward since color transmissions began in the middle of the 20th century.

However, a higher-resolution television format did indeed exist well before the TV world went digital. Over in Japan, television engineers had developed an analog HD format that promised quality far beyond regular old NTSC and PAL transmissions. All this, decades before flat screens and digital TV were ever seen in consumer households!

Japan’s Forgotten Analog HDTV Standard Was Well Ahead Of Its Time

Resolution

Japan’s efforts to develop a better standard of analog television were pursued by the Science and Technical Research Laboratories of NHK, the national public broadcaster. Starting in the 1970s, research and development focused on how to deliver a higher-quality television signal, as well as how to best capture, store, and display it.
The higher resolution of Hi-Vision was seen to make viewing a larger, closer television more desirable. The figures chosen were based on an intended viewing distance that of three times the height of the screen. Credit: NHK Handbook
This work led to the development of a standard known as Hi-Vision, which aimed to greatly improve the resolution and quality of broadcast television. At 1125 lines, it offered over double the vertical resolution of the prevailing 60 Hz NTSC standard in Japan. The precise number was chosen for meeting minimum requirements for image quality for a viewer with good vision, while being a convenient integer ratio to NTSC’s 525 lines (15:7), and PAL’s 625 lines (9:5). Hi-Vision also introduced a shift to the 16:9 aspect ratio from the more traditional 4:3 used in conventional analog television. The new standard also brought with it improved audio, with four independent channels—left, center, right, and rear—in what was termed “3-1 mode.” This was not unlike the layout used by Dolby Surround systems of the mid-1980s, though the NHK spec suggests using multiple speakers behind the viewers to deliver the single rear sound channel.
Hi-Vision offered improved sound, encoded with PCM. Credit: NHK handbook
Hi-Vision referred most specifically to the video standard itself; the broadcast standard was called MUSE—standing for Multiple sub-Nyquist Sampling Encoding. This was a method for dealing with the high bandwidth requirements of higher-quality television. Where an NTSC TV broadcast might only need 4.2 MHz of bandwidth, the Hi-Vision standard needed 20-25 MHz of bandwidth. That wasn’t practical to fit in alongside terrestrial broadcasts of the time, and even for satellite delivery, it was considered too great. Thus, MUSE offered a way to compress the high-resolution signal down into a more manageable 8.1 MHz, with a combination of dot interlacing and advanced multiplexing techniques. The method used meant that ultimately four frames were needed to make up a full image. Special motion-sensitive encoding techniques were also used to limit the blurring impact of camera pans due to the use of the dot interlaced method. Meanwhile, the four-channel digital audio stream was squeezed into the vertical blanking period.

MUSE broadcasts began on an experimental basis in 1989. NHK would eventually begin using the standard regularly on its BShi satellite service, with a handful of other Japanese broadcasters eventually following suit. Broadcasts ran until 2007, when NHK finally shut down the service with digital TV by then well established.

The technology wasn’t just limited to higher-quality broadcasts, either. Recorded media capable of delivering higher-resolution content also permeated the Japanese market. W-VHS (Wide-VHS) hit the market in 1993 as a video cassette standard capable of recording Hi-Vision/MUSE broadcast material. The W moniker was initially chosen for its shorthand meaning in Japanese of “double”—since Hi-Vision used 1125 lines which was just over double the 525 lines in an NTSC broadcast.

Later, in 1994, Panasonic released its Hi-Vision LaserDisc player, with Pioneer and Sony eventually offering similar products. They similarly offered 1,125 lines (1,035 visible) of resolution in a native 16:9 aspect ratio. The discs were read using a narrower-wavelength laser than standard laser discs, which also offered improved read performance and reliability.

The hope was that Hi-Vision would become an international standard for HDTV, supplanting the ugly mix of NTSC, PAL, and SECAM formats around the world. Unfortunately, that never came to pass. While Hi-Vision and MUSE did offer a better quality image, there simply wasn’t much content that was actually broadcast in the standard. Only a few channels in Japan were available, creating a limited incentive for households to upgrade their existing sets. Similarly, the amount of recorded media available was also limited. The bandwidth requirements were also too great; even with MUSE squishing the signals down, the 8.1MHz required was still considered too much for practical use in the US market. Meanwhile, being based on a 60 Hz standard meant the European industry was not interested.

Further worsening the situation was that by 1996, DVD technology had been released, offering better quality and all the associated benefits of a digital medium. Digital television technology was not far behind, and buildouts began in countries around the world by the late 1990s. These transmissions offered higher quality and the ability to deliver more channels with the same bandwidth, and would ultimately take over.

youtube.com/embed/pJupQw1FtW8?…

Only a handful of Hi-Vision displays still exist in the world.

Hi-Vision and MUSE offered a huge step up in image quality, but their technical limitations and broadcast difficulties meant that they would never compete with the new digital technologies that were coming down the line. There was simply not enough time for the technology to find a foothold in the market before something better came along. Still, it’s quite something to look back on the content and hardware from the late 1980s and early 1990s that was able, in many ways, to measure up in quality to the digital flat screen TVs that wouldn’t arrive for another 15 years or so. Quite a technical feat indeed, even if it didn’t win the day!

Countdown To Pi 1 Loss Of Support, Activated

The older Raspberry Pi boards have had a long life, serving faithfully since 2012. Frankly, their continued support is a rarity these days — it’s truly incredible that an up-to-date OS image can still be downloaded for them in 2025. All good things must eventually come to an end though, and perhaps one of the first signs of that moment for the BCM2385 could be evident in Phoronix’s report on Debian dropping support for MIPS64EL & ARMEL architectures. Both are now long in the tooth and other than ARMEL in the Pi, rarely encountered now, so were it not for the little board from Cambridge this might hardly be news. But what does it mean for the older Pi?

It’s first important to remind readers that there’s no need to panic just yet, as the support is goin

Make Metal Rain with Thermal Spraying

Alec using the arc spraying device

For those of us hackers who have gone down a machining rabbit hole, we all know how annoying it can be to over-machine a part. Thermal spraying, while sounding sci-fi, is a method where you can just spray that metal back on your workpiece. If you don’t care about machining, how about a gun that shoots a shower of sparks just to coat your enemies in a layer of metal? Welcome to the world of thermal spraying, led by the one and only [Alec Steele].

There are three main techniques shown that can be used to coat using metal spools. The first, termed flame spraying, uses a propane flame and compressed air to blast fine drops of molten metal onto your surface. A fuel-heavy mixture allows the metal to remain unoxidized and protect any surface beneath

12,5 milioni di film HD al secondo! Il cavo sottomarino di Amazon che collegherà gli USA all’Irlanda

Tra qualche anno, l’Irlanda e gli Stati Uniti saranno collegati da un cavo di comunicazione sottomarino progettato per aiutare Amazon a migliorare i suoi servizi AWS.

I cavi sottomarini sono una parte vitale dell’infrastruttura che collega i continenti. Secondo i media, attualmente sono circa 570 i cavi posati attraverso oceani e mari, e altri 81 sono in programma. Tra questi c’è il nuovo cavo Amazon Fastnet, progettato per collegare gli Stati Uniti e l’Irlanda in pochi anni e migliorare la rete AWS.

Come annunciato da Amazon in un comunicato stampa, il cavo sottomarino verrà posato tra il Maryland, negli Stati Uniti, e la contea di Cork, in Irlanda. Sebbene Amazon non abbia specificato la lunghezza esatta del cavo AWS, la distanza tra i due punti è di circa 5.300 chilometri (3.000 miglia) in linea d’aria. Amazon prevede di completare il progetto entro il 2028.

Secondo Amazon, il collegamento tra Maryland e Cork è importante per due motivi. In primo luogo, Fastnet è progettato per fungere da collegamento di comunicazione di backup in caso di guasto di altri cavi sottomarini. Poiché la riparazione di tali cavi sottomarini è complessa, il ripristino della funzionalità dopo un danno può richiedere più tempo. Fastnet è inoltre progettato per soddisfare la crescente domanda di cloud computing e intelligenza artificiale tramite i servizi AWS.

Il cavo sottomarino, spesso 37 millimetri nel punto più largo, trasmetterà i dati tra i due punti utilizzando la tecnologia in fibra ottica. Secondo Amazon, ciò consentirà velocità di trasferimento dati fino a 320 terabit al secondo, paragonabili allo streaming simultaneo di 12,5 milioni di film in HD.

L’elevata capacità di trasmissione consentirà al sistema di monitoraggio automatizzato di Amazon AWS di gestire e reindirizzare più facilmente i carichi pesanti. Inoltre, il cavo fornisce ad Amazon un ulteriore livello di ridondanza, mitigando l’impatto di eventuali guasti su altri cavi.

Per prevenire guasti, il cavo sottomarino sarà meglio protetto dalle influenze esterne nelle zone costiere. Oltre ai conduttori in acciaio più sottili che proteggono la fibra ottica all’interno del cavo, nelle sezioni più piatte viene utilizzato uno strato aggiuntivo. In questi casi, fili in acciaio più spessi avvolgono l’intero cavo e sono a loro volta rivestiti da una guaina in nylon. Secondo Amazon, questa soluzione è progettata per proteggere meglio il cavo da “fattori naturali e artificiali”.

L'articolo 12,5 milioni di film HD al secondo! Il cavo sottomarino di Amazon che collegherà gli USA all’Irlanda proviene da Red Hot Cyber.

un diagramma di flusso con domande poste in riquadri colorati collegati da frecce. Il titolo è "How to choose an OS". Il diagramma inizia con la domanda "You think penguins are mainstream?". Il diagramma termina con diverse icone di sistemi operativi. Sotto il titolo c'è un riquadro contenente un ritratto di un uomo e il testo "Created by Dan Nanni study-notes.org".
Il diagramma di flusso contiene le seguenti domande: "You think penguins are mainstream?", "Ready to embrace freedom?", "Do you trust cloud?", "Are you rich?", "What is your audio preference?". Le risposte ramificate sono "I love penguins!", "Yes, I am an iconoclast", "Absolutely!", "My dad is rich!", "Vintage vinyl player!" e "Self-updating smart speaker!". Le icone di sistemi operativi finali sono Facebook, un cerchio blu con una forma ondulata verde, un cerchio viola con una forma ondulata blu, un cerchio rosso, un cerchio viola con una forma ondulata rossa e un cerchio arancione con una forma a spirale.

Ecco, questo non lo capisco...
Debian non sarebbe ottimizzato per l'audio ma Ubuntu sì?
In realtà Arch è meglio (le distro audio sono quasi tutte basate su Arch, come la vecchia "Audiophile linux"), mentre se vuoi audio decente su ubuntu devi usare Ubuntu Studio e smaneggiare con Jack...
Mah!
Mi sa che sono rimasto indietro...

For the first time, Catholic sisters return land to Ojibwe Nation

"This return represents more than the restoration of land — it is the restoration of balance, dignity, and our sacred connection to the places our ancestors once walked."

Bravi studenti, bravi.
Fate le cose con l'intelligenza artificiale e studiateci sopra.
Si si.

Credo che non metterò l'alt text perché non saprei nemmeno come farlo. Come la descrivo una cosa del genere?
Comunque, cari ipovedenti, sappiate che è un compito di storia di una studentessa, fatto con ChatGPT (fonte: la madre) sulla conquista delle americhe e ci sono una serie di strafalcioni memorabili.
