The EU aims to agree by Friday on a long-term freeze of Russian central bank assets, a major legal shift that would remove the need to renew the freeze every six months. This would block veto threats from Hungary or Slovakia and pave the way for using the €210B as collateral for loans to Ukraine.
Belgium, holding €185B, remains cautious due to legal risks, but the EU is preparing guarantees to protect it from Russian lawsuits.
Ukraine’s defense industry is working to localize S-300 and S-400 missile production with the goal of integrating them with European radar systems, Fire Point’s chief designer Denys Shtylerman told the BBC. The company has already cloned key components and plans to begin engine tests in January 2026.
Until full integration is possible, the FP-7 is being used as a short-range ballistic missile with a 200 km range. The longer-range FP-9, reaching up to 855 km, is also in development.
During a meeting with military leadership, Putin claimed that Russian forces hold the strategic initiative and ordered the continuation of combat operations “according to plan.” Gerasimov reported advances in Sumy and near Vovchansk, control over parts of Kostyantynivka, and the capture of Kurylivka, Kucherivka, and Siversk. Putin praised the army’s performance and said progress in Donbas and “Novorossiya” is on track.

Ukraine’s General Staff confirms it's streamlining transfers between units by shifting to a fully electronic system. Requests now go directly to HQ, cutting out lower-level approvals and reducing manipulation.
But the key message: self-inflicted absences (СЗЧ) won't help soldiers transfer to preferred units. All returns from СЗЧ go to combat brigades in need, including Air Assault and assault forces.

Bloomberg reports Viktor Orbán is preparing for life after the April 2026 election by planning a power grab through the presidency. Orbán is exploring how to rewrite laws to turn Hungary’s ceremonial presidential role into the most powerful office in the country. Fidesz has already passed a law making it harder to remove the president, and insiders say Orbán is considering using his supermajority to push through constitutional changes before the vote.

Su Twitter/X la spunta blu è diventata un prodotto a pagamento.
Su Mastodon, invece, la verifica con la spunta verde nella bio è gratuita, trasparente e basata su standard aperti.

Twitter/X: come verificare la tua identità senza pagare con Mastodon
Da quando Elon Musk ha trasformato la storica spunta blu di Twitter in un servizio a pagamento da 3 a 38 euro al mese, molti si sono chiesti: esiste davvero un’alternativa gratuita e credibile per verificare la propria identità online? La risposta è …Homelab Notes
No, non serve per forza avere un sito web o un dominio.
La verifica tramite dominio è solo uno dei tre metodi.
Se non hai un sito puoi comunque ottenere la spunta verde usando:
Gravatar — soluzione semplice per tutti
Keyoxide — più tecnica, basata su OpenPGP
Entrambe permettono la verifica senza possedere un dominio

Hackers have breached “Micord,” a key developer of Russia’s unified military registry system. The group responsible says it accessed internal documents, emails, and damaged parts of the infrastructure. The rights group “Idite Lesom” shared the data, promising to publish the files soon.
Micord’s director confirmed the cyberattack but refused to comment on their role in building the registry. The system, launched in October 2025 and developed by Rostelecom, now supports e-draft notices.
I’ve just switched Telegram to PeerTube mirror script from OpenAI (easier for protytyping) to 100% local LLM using Ollama.
The actual LLM is IBM’s granite4. On the server it takes ~2 GB RAM resident.
Don’t let anyone tell you that you 1) must always use OpenAI and 2) LLMs suck in general 😄
I’ve also tried a few smaller LLMs like granite4:350m, BERT Mini etc but they just produce semi-random ramblings rather than useful responses.

An interpreter at the European Parliament couldn't hold back tears during the speech of 11-year-old Roman Oleksiv from Lviv.
The boy survived a missile strike in Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother.
After the tragedy, Roman endured 36 surgeries and a lengthy rehabilitation process due to severe burns and injuries.
Despite everything, he has returned to school, dance, and music.

Do you financially support the media that you enjoy most often?
If you enjoy posting on the fedi do you support your server? Other small servers?
If you enjoy watching videos do you support the people who make them?
If you read articles do you support the reporters?
What about local theatre and music?
If you have netflix money, spotify money, Hulu or Bobo or whatever money you have money that could do this.
We can talk about how it's bad that the media landscape is shaped by cash, but that isn't a reason to be complacent and tithe to six huge corporations who'd be fine without you and never sending a dime to the strange man who makes the creepy analog cat videos you watch every single day.
Not to put too fine a point on it.
There is one upside in all of this. When you support smaller creators you money has a MUCH bigger impact.
I support:
* this server
* other servers
* the wikipedia
* Karamu House Theatre
* people who sell ant art
* a ton of people who tiny youTube channels
* Pregones Theatre
* community gardens
* xerces society
* new SF authors selling their first book(it's aspirational)
* building food and supplies pantry
*
When I need more money for these kinds of things I start looking for anything corporate I can cut out. Although most of this is possible due to ditching Amazon. Best decision ever.

#Lavrov ha mandato le sue richieste di "garanzie di sicurezza" per la Russia, che dice sono le stesse del dicembre 2021. Al tempo le pubblicarono su internet, questa volta invece sono private e non è ancora noto il contenuto.
Quelle del 2021 chiedevano un ritorno della NATO al 1997 (quando non vi facevano parte i paesi ex comunisti), quindi lo smantellamento della basi americane in questi paesi e il divieto di dispiegare armi americane sui loro territori, poi la richiesta che "le
parti contraenti non utilizzeranno i territori di altri Stati al fine di preparare o eseguire un attacco
armato contro l’altra Parte o altre azioni che ledano i principali interessi di sicurezza dell’altra
Parte”.
In pratica la richiesta di un ritorno al Patto di Varsavia, nel quale i paesi interessati non vengono nemmeno interpellati.

Thank goodness.
There is real helpful information here just for the asking.

I am more thankful than my words can describe.
