Хакеры заявили об уничтожении данных реестра электронных повесток в России

Неизвестные взломщики утверждают, что получили доступ к инфраструктуре компании «Микорд» — разработчика реестра повесток — и удалили около 43 ТБ данных.

По их словам, у них был доступ к исходному коду и внутренним документам, копии которых передали журналистам.

Хакеры также заявляют, что после атаки еще пять дней оставались на рабочих созвонах разработчиков, не будучи замеченными. кибератаку.

Россия в этом году потратила более 11 трлн рублей на войну

Министр обороны Белоусов впервые озвучил, сколько средств бюджета напрямую направлено на войну.

По его словам, в 2025 году расходы на войну составили 5,1% ВВП, что примерно соответствует 11,1 трлн рублей, исходя из прогноза Минэкономразвития о ВВП в 217,3 трлн рублей.

Общие расходы Минобороны достигли 7,3% ВВП, при этом доля средств на невоенные нужды сократилась с 2,7% в 2024 году до 2,2% в 2025-м.

Суд вернул экс-силовику Audi и коллекцию элитного алкоголя

Апелляционный суд отменил конфискацию имущества бывшего начальника управления экономической безопасности и противодействия коррупции ГУ МВД по Свердловской области Андрея Дьякова.

Речь идет об автомобиле Audi, квартире и коллекции дорогого алкоголя, изъятых по приговору суда первой инстанции.

Взамен суд постановил конфисковать у Дьякова 38 млн рублей. Ранее с него взыскивали лишь 3 млн рублей и 29 тысяч долларов.

Индия заявила о вербовке своих граждан Россией для войны

Власти Индии сообщили, что Россия завербовала более 200 индийских граждан для участия в войне против Украины.

По данным правительства, вербовка проходила через посредников, обещавших работу и высокие зарплаты.

Набиуллина предупредила о росте инфляции из-за повышения НДС

Повышение НДС и тарифов в начале 2026 года приведёт к ускорению инфляции, заявила глава Центробанка Эльвира Набиуллина.

По ее словам, рост цен в 2025 году замедлился до уровня ниже 6%, однако налоговые изменения могут заметно повлиять на инфляцию уже в ближайшие месяцы.

Некоторые компании начали повышать цены заранее, но основной эффект ещё впереди.

В России заблокировали приложение для слепых Be My Eyes

Все, что оно делало — помогало незрячим ориентироваться в пространстве.

В нем можно было связываться с волонтерами через видеосвязь или просить ИИ описывать происходящее вокруг — видеозвонки внутри сервиса как раз и могли стать причиной блокировки.

Официально в реестр оно пока не внесено, но в Be My Eyes подтвердили, что доступ из России ограничен

The ‘Hidden’ Microphone inside the Sipeed NanoKVM

Recently, [Jeff Geerling] dropped into the bad press feeding frenzy around Sipeed’s NanoKVM, most notably because of a ‘hidden’ microphone that should have no business on a remote KVM solution. The problem with that reporting is, as [Jeff] points out in the video below, that the NanoKVM – technically the NanoKVM-Cube – is merely a software solution that got put on an existing development board, the LicheeRV Nano, along with an HDMI-in board. The microphone exists on that board and didn’t get removed for the new project, and it is likely that much of the Linux image is also reused.

Of course, the security report that caused so much fuss was published back in February of 2025, and some of the issues pertaining to poor remote security have been addressed since then on the public GitHub repository. While these were valid concerns that should be addressed, the microphone should not be a concern, as it’d require someone to be logged into the device to even use it, at which point you probably have bigger problems.

Security considerations aside, having a microphone in place on a remote KVM solution could also be very useful, as dutifully pointed out in the comments by [bjoern.photography], who notes that being able to listen to beeps on boot could be very useful while troubleshooting a stricken system. We imagine the same is true for other system sounds, such as fan or cooling pump noises. Maybe all remote KVM solutions should have microphone arrays?

Of course, if you don’t like the NanoKVM, you could always roll your own.

Two-Wheeled Arduino Robot Project for Beginners

Here’s a fun build from [RootSaid] that is suitable for people just getting started with microcontrollers and robotics — an Arduino-controlled two-wheeled robot.

The video assumes you already have one of the common robotics kits that includes the chassis, wheels, and motors, something like this. You’ll also need a microcontroller (in this case, an Arduino Nano), a L293D motor driver IC, a 9 V battery, and some jumper wires.

The video goes into detail about how the two wheels connected to one motor each can move the robot in various directions: forward, backward, left, and right. The motors can be made to spin either forward or backward, depending on the polarity of the power supply, using an H-bridge circuit.

The L293D motor driver IC powers and controls the motors connected to the wheels. The L293D takes its commands from the Arduino. The rest of the video is spent going over the software for controlling the wheels.

When you’re ready to go to the next level, you might enjoy this robot dog.

Rispondiamo qui pubblicamente, perché non è la prima volta che accade e non sarà l'ultima ed è giusto che tutte e tutti leggano e capiscano come si gestisce quella che è l'unica istanza peertube italiana con iscrizioni aperte consigliata nel sito degli sviluppatori.

Non accettiamo canali video legati o anche solo contigui ai movimenti no-vax o antiscentifici, né progetti che usano i video come esca per portare persone dentro canali Telegram dove circola disinformazione, complottismo e propaganda.

PeerTube.uno ha costi altissimi di gestione: banda, storage, moderazione ed è mantenuto esclusivamente grazie a donazioni piccole e grandi, di persone che sanno perfettamente che quei soldi non finiranno mai a sostenere campagne contro i vaccini, né in teorie come il “grande reset”, da cui vogliamo e dobbiamo stare lontani.

Questa non è censura, è una scelta politica chiara, coerente e trasparente: non faremo da infrastruttura a contenuti che minano la salute pubblica.

Le alternative esistono, ci sono centinaia di istanze Peertube, peertube.uno è solo una fra le tante, oppure potete crearne una vostra, assumendovi in prima persona costi, responsabilità e moderazione.

Vi chiediamo di rispettare la nostra decisione senza alimentare inutili polemiche, abbiamo già bloccato recentemente esponenti di vvv e altri ambienti complottisti e contigui ai circuiti anti-scientifici che girano nei canali Telegram di “controinformazione” e vi chiediamo gentilmente di non usare nemmeno pixelfed.uno e mastodon,uno ma di spostarvi altrove, grazie.

Retrocomputing: Simulacrum or the Real Deal?

The holidays are rapidly approaching, and you probably already have a topic or two to argue with your family about. But what about with your hacker friends? We came upon an old favorite the other day: whether it “counts” as retrocomputing if you’re running a simulated version of the system or if it “needs” to run on old iron.

This lovely C64esque laptop sparked the controversy. It’s an absolute looker, with a custom keyboard and a retro-reimagining-period-correct flaptop design, but the beauty is only skin deep: the guts are a Raspberry Pi 5 running VICE. An emulator! Horrors!

We’ll admit to being entirely torn. There’s something about the old computers that’s very nice to lay hands on, and we just don’t get the same feels from an emulator running on our desktop. But a physical reproduction like with many of the modern C64 recreations, or [Oscar Vermeulen]’s PiDP-8/I really floats our boat in a way that an in-the-browser emulation experience simply doesn’t.

Another example was the Voja 4, the Supercon 2022 badge based on a CPU that never existed. It’s not literally retro, because [Voja Antonics] designed it during the COVID quarantines, so there’s no “old iron” at all. Worse, it’s emulated; the whole thing exists as a virtual machine inside the onboard PIC.

But we’d argue that this badge brought more people something very much like the authentic PDP-8 experience, or whatever. We saw people teaching themselves to do something functional in an imaginary 4-bit machine language over a weekend, and we know folks who’ve kept at it in the intervening years. Part of the appeal was that it reflected nearly everything about the machine state in myriad blinking lights. Or rather, it reflected the VM running on the PIC, because remember, it’s all just a trick.

So we’ll fittingly close this newsletter with a holiday message of peace to the two retrocomputing camps: Maybe you’re both right. Maybe the physical device and its human interfaces do matter – emulation sucks – but maybe it’s not entirely relevant what’s on the inside of the box if the outside is convincing enough. After all, if we hadn’t done [Kevin Noki] dirty by showing the insides of his C64 laptop, maybe nobody would ever have known.
