Quand on pense à une manette de PlayStation, on tend à imaginer la version d’origine (numérique) vue dans la PlayStation Classic ou à la première manette DualShock et ses deux sticks analogiques. Mais Sony, en 1997, a proposé une autre manette : la Dual Analog. Et cette version, plutôt rare, est (à mon avis) plus pratique que la DualShock, tout du moins si vous avez la version japonaise. En effet, de façon assez bizarre, Sony a décidé de ne pas proposer de vibrations dans la version européenne et la version nord-américaine. La Dual Analog
La Dual Analog est sortie en avril 1997 au Japon, sous la référence SCPH-1150. Sur le plan physique, elle propose deux sticks analogiques en plastique (sans...

En septembre 2025, la Hongrie a signé un accord de coopération nucléaire avec la Chine, renforçant encore les liens bilatéraux. La manœuvre de Budapest illustre l'usage de son autonomie stratégique pour approfondir ses relations avec Pékin et étendre son influence au-delà de l'Union européenne. Les élections parlementaires hongroises de 2026 seront déterminantes pour savoir si Budapest continuera de servir de principale porte d'entrée de la Chine vers l'Europe centrale et orientale. Au cours de la dernière décennie, la Hongrie s'est imposée comme un « point d'entrée » pour les intérêts chinois au sein de l'Union européenne, offrant à Pékin un moyen de projeter son influence à travers...

If you want to pull apart a program to see how it ticks, you’re going to need a disassembler. [Ricardo Quesada] has built Regenerator 2000 for just that purpose. It’s a new interactive disassembler for the Commodore 64 platform.
Naturally, Regenerator 2000 is built with full support for the 6502 instruction set, including undocumented op-codes as well. It’s able to automatically create labels and comments and can be paired with the VICE C64 emulator for live debugging. You can do all the usual debug stuff like inspecting registers, stepping through code, and setting breakpoints and watchpoints when you’re trying to figure out how something works. It can even show you sprites, bitmaps, and character...

Unlike on Earth there aren’t dozens of satellites whizzing around Mars to provide satellite navigation functionality. Recently NASA’s JPL engineers tried something with the Perseverance Mars rover that can give such Marsbound vehicles the equivalent of launching GPS satellites into Mars orbit, by introducing Mars Global Localization.
Although its remote operators back on Earth have the means to tell the rover where it is, it’d be incredibly helpful if it could determine this autonomously so that the rover doesn’t have to constantly stop and ask its human operators for directions. To this end the processor which was originally used to communicate with its Ingenuity helicopter companion was repurposed,...

The act of rising from a chair may seem like a simple task for most, but it is actually a significant effort for many older adults. This small movement serves as an everyday way to gauge overall strength, balance, and confidence, as well as what may ultimately determine how much assistance an individual requires in order to live independently. According to a new research study from Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia, there is one food product that may be an unexpectedly easy solution: peanut butter. In this study, conducted over a period of six months, older adults consuming one serving of peanut butter on a daily basis, as opposed to those who did not, exhibited improvements in their lower body...

Historically, moving and pointing a camera while filming was the job of a highly-skilled individual. However, there are machines that can do that, enabling all kinds of fancy movement that is difficult or impossible for a human to recreate. A great example is this pan-tilt build from [immofoto3d.]
The build uses a hefty cradle to mount DSLR-size cameras or similar. It’s controlled in the tilt axis by a chunky NEMA 17 stepper motor hooked up to a belt drive for smooth, accurate movement. Similarly, another stepper motor handles the pan axis, with an option for upgrade if you have a heavier camera rig that needs more torque to spin easily. Named Gantry Bot, it’s an open-source design with source files...

A few minutes beside trees or water can shift the brain into a calmer state. That change is not just a feeling. It shows up in brain scans. A comprehensive review of 108 neuroimaging studies could provide additional insight into how our interaction with nature can create changes in our brains. The review was led by researchers from McGill University and Adolfo Ibáñez University in Chile and compiled data from neuroimaging studies including EEG, fMRI, MRI, and near-infrared spectroscopy. Their review produced the most complete picture of how our connections with nature can affect attention, stress, and emotional regulation. “We can intuitively understand that being in Nature is good for us, however, through...

Anthropic is making it easier to switch to its Claude AI from other chatbots with an update that brings Claude's memory feature to users on the free plan, along with a new prompt and dedicated tool for importing data from other chatbots. These upgrades could allow users who have been using rivals like OpenAI's ChatGPT or Google's Gemini to quickly copy the data their preferred AI has collected on them and bring it over to Anthropic's chatbot. That way, they don't have to "start over" teaching Claude the context and history their previous chatbot already knows. The option to import and export memories from Claude has been available since O …

A cancer drug class best known for attacking tumors may also help your immune system remember them better. Researchers at Georgetown University’s Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center report that blocking an enzyme called PARP can reprogram key immune cells into a stronger, longer-lasting form. The work focuses on CD8 T cells, white blood cells that hunt infected and cancerous cells. The team says PARP inhibition helps these CD8 T cells develop what they call “superior memory.” In lab and mouse studies, the reprogrammed cells activated more effectively and hit tumors harder. They also survived longer, a quality that matters when cancer tries to return. “This opens the door to a new area of research in...

Considering that the Serial Peripheral Interface bus semi-standard has been around since the early 1980s, it’s perhaps not that shocking that the controllers of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) would take at least some strong design hints for the used protocol. This does however raise the question of exactly how compatible a SNES controller is when connected to the SPI master peripheral of any random MCU. Recently [James Sharman] set out to answer this question decisively.
The impetus for answering this question came after [James] designed a separate SNES controller board for his homebrew computer system, which led to many comments on that video saying that he could just have hooked the...

The blog post announcing the feature also explains that the tool "works entirely in your browser: there is no tracking data, and it does not store any information on the server." Previously, a "share" widget wasn't available on Mastodon mainly due to the technical challenges that come with the platform's decentralized d …

Anna’s Archive has faced a barrage of domain takedowns in recent weeks, after Spotify and several major record labels filed a high-profile lawsuit.
The lawsuit was a direct response to Anna’s Archive’s announcement that it had backed up Spotify, with plans to gradually release the data, including the music files.
Spotify and the labels aimed to stop this. They obtained a preliminary injunction targeting domain registrars and registries, which resulted in the suspension of the .org domain as well as several other domains. However, since not all domain registries and registrars comply with U.S. court orders, the .li domain name survived. Until now. Annas-Archive.li Deleted

There are many chess robots, most of which require the human player to move the opposing pieces themselves, or have a built-in mechanism that can slide the opposing pieces around to their new location. Ideally, such a chess robot would move the pieces just like how a human would, of course. That’s pretty much the promise behind the Manya Cynus chess robot, which [Matt] over at the Techmoan YouTube channel bought from the Kickstarter campaign.

If you were small enough to fit inside an ant nest, you would hear it as much as you would see it. The walls shiver with tiny footsteps. The ground carries constant vibration. In that crowded, dark space, a caterpillar trying to survive has a problem: how do you convince a suspicious ant colony that you belong? A team led by researchers at the University of Warwick says some butterfly caterpillars may solve that problem with rhythm. The new work, conducted with the University of Turin and the Forest Research Institute and published in Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, reports that caterpillars closely tied to ants produce precisely timed vibrational patterns that resemble the ants’ own signals....

Moments before a goal, the movement that created the chance often looks chaotic. A pass goes somewhere unexpected, defenders hesitate, space opens. That sense of disorder may not be random at all. It might be one of the strongest signals that a team is about to win. A new analysis published in the journal PLOS One suggests that soccer teams perform better when they spread their play unpredictably across the entire field rather than focusing attacks in familiar areas. The research examined how ball movement patterns relate to match outcomes using data from professional competitions. “Soccer is low-scoring, so a couple of moments can swing a match, and simple statistics like possession or shot counts do not...
