The decision may indicate that the administration is walking back more aggressive immigration enforcement.

“Madness” : une “folie” ! C’est ainsi que le peintre David Hockney a qualifié le prêt de la tapisserie de Bayeux à Londres cette année. Et si le British Museum se veut rassurant, les avis des experts divergent quant aux risques liés à son transport. Un débat relayé par le quotidien britannique “The Daily Telegraph”.

Brutalisés par la répression la plus sanglante de l’histoire contemporaine du pays, toujours coupés du monde, et en proie à une crise qui ne cesse de sévir, les Iraniens vivent désormais dans la peur d’être traqués, arrêtés, tués ou exécutés, raconte “The Observer”.

Berlin s’est engagé à investir massivement dans sa défense pour faire de la Bundeswehr une armée européenne de premier plan. Un réarmement qui suscite tantôt l’admiration, tantôt la méfiance, notamment à Paris, où l’on craint que cette montée en puissance de l’arsenal allemand ne marginalise la France sur la scène internationale. L’ascension du parti d’extrême droite AfD ravive aussi des souvenirs douloureux chez les Européens, souligne le média américain “Bloomberg”.

Today marks an auspicious anniversary which might have passed us by had it not been for [Diamond Geezer], who reminds us that it’s a hundred years since the first public demonstration of television by John Logie Baird. In a room above what is today a rather famous Italian coffee shop in London’s Soho, he had assembled a complete mechanical TV system that he demonstrated to journalists.
Television is one of those inventions that owes its genesis to more than a single person, so while Baird was by no means the only one inventing in the field, he was the first to demonstrate a working system. With mechanical scanning and just 30 lines, it’s hardly HD or 4K, but it does have the advantage of being within the...

The New York Times columnist and Hard Fork podcast co-host might be a little too jazzed about vibecoding.

While social media rumors have suggested the errors are examples of censorship, more than a day after the issues began, TikTok USDS says the problems are the result of a power outage at a data center that it is working to resolve. Rumors of censorship targeting anti-ICE protesting or attempting to block discussion of Jeffrey Epstein appear to be misguided (even the governor of California is resharing misinformation posted on Twitter by “intelligentpawg” and PopBase), with problems and glitches blocking all kinds of videos and messages on the service through Monday night. Starting early Sunday morning, TikTok’s now under new ownership US arm started breaking down just a couple of days after Oracle & Co...

A Sun-type star situated nearly 3,000 light-years from Earth has provided astronomers with a unique opportunity to observe an unusual after-effect of a planetary system’s evolution. When this star, designated J0705+0612, underwent a complete dimming event in September 2024, it remained dim for around nine months. This dimming was an incredible 40 times the usual brightness of this star, something which immediately concerned Nadia Zakamska, an astrophysicist at Johns Hopkins University. “Stars like the Sun don’t just spontaneously cease shining,” said Zakamska. “The likelihood of such a significant dimming event occurring naturally is very small.” Working together with a multi-institutional group,...

At least a dozen people have died in multiple US states possibly due to the storm, officials have said.

X is facing an investigation from the European Commission over the sexualized deepfakes generated by its Grok AI chatbot. In its announcement, the Commission says it will evaluate whether X "properly assessed and mitigated risks" associated with Grok's image-generating capabilities in the EU, as reported earlier by The New York Times.
Advocacy groups and lawmakers from around the world have raised the alarm on Grok's AI image editing feature after it began complying with requests to generate sexualized images of women and minors on the platform. X later paywalled the ability to edit images in public replies to posts, but everyone can still …

The Trump administration is signaling interest in government ownership stakes, a move with implications for energy policy and corporate governance.

For decades, bulky spectrometers have been the main tools for understanding how things are made of chemicals (a thing called composition). Spectrometers are a type of lab equipment that uses prisms or gratings to break down light into its component colours in order to analyse what is in something. Spectrometers require a lot of space, which has kept them from becoming smaller and cheaper. Now, researchers at the University of California, Davis have found a way to get around this limitation of size (physical limitation). Researchers at UC Davis have published their work in the journal Advanced Photonics describing the development of a chip that can measure light spectra that is small enough to fit onto the top...

Les députés ont aussi adopté l’interdiction de l’utilisation des téléphones portables dans les lycées par les adolescents. Soutenue par le gouvernement, la proposition de loi de la députée Laure Miller va bénéficier d’une procédure accélérée, a annoncé Emmanuel Macron.

An analog telephone adapter (ATA), or FXS gateway, is a device that allows traditional analog phones to be connected to a digital voice-over-IP (VoIP) network. In addition to this, you can even create a local phone exchange using just analog phones without connecting to a network as [Playful Technology] demonstrates in a recent video.
The ATA used in the video is the Grandstream HT802, which features one 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port and two RJ11 FXS ports for two POTS phones, allowing for two phones to be directly connected and configured using their own profiles.
By using a multi-FXS port ATA in this manner, you essentially can set up your own mini telephone exchange, with a long run of Cat-3 possible between an...

Donald Trump « ne veut pas voir de gens blessés ou tués dans les rues », mais exige « la fin de la résistance et du chaos », qu’il attribue à la « résistance délibérée » des démocrates, a déclaré, lundi, la porte-parole de la Maison Blanche.

Bluetooth trackers come in all shapes and sizes. | Illustration: Cath Virginia / The Verge Some people rarely lose things. Wallets are always exactly where they’re supposed to be, keys never go missing, and remotes never slip between the couch cushions. And then there’s the rest of us — the folks who can’t ever seem to find the thing that was right there a few seconds ago. For us, there are Bluetooth trackers. Bluetooth trackers have been around for a long time, and they all generally work the same way. You stick the tracker onto an object, pair it with your phone, and then, when you lose said object, you can go into an app and ring the tracker. But these days, Bluetooth trackers can do a lot more....

OpenAI's co-founder and longtime president, Greg Brockman, didn't just make a run-of-the-mill donation to the main pro-Trump super PAC - together, he and his wife Anna's September 2025 donations equaled the largest of them all, totaling $25 million to "MAGA Inc.," per a recent filing. The Brockmans' donations made up nearly one-fourth of the six-month fundraising cycle. It's the latest in a string of examples of tech executives cozying up to President Trump's administration, happening as the administration pushes to aggressively back the AI industry and defang state-level regulations that companies like OpenAI have largely opposed.

Google could owe you some money, now that it's moving to settle a class-action lawsuit over how it handled recordings captured when its devices were activated by something other than Google Assistant's actual trigger word, "Ok Google." German outlet VRT NWS's 2019 report exposed the issue, and court filings from last Friday say the proposed settlement number is $68 million, as reported previously by Reuters. The lawsuit accuses Google of "unlawful and intentional recording of individuals' confidential communications without their consent," during these "False Accepts." VRT NWS reported that human workers who analyzed Assistant audio clips …

Before the refrigerator became a normal part of any kitchen, those with enough money to throw around could get an icebox, which used melting ice to cool food and drinks in a second compartment. As refrigerators became available for sale in the 1920s, this created somewhat awkward transition models, like the 1924 Frigidaire B-9 that [David Allen] recently got offered for a restoration. This was part of the restoration of a 1926 house, which foresaw putting this venerable unit back into operation.
As [David] explains, this refrigerator was still in use until about 1970 when it broke down, and repairs proved tricky. Clearly, the fault wasn’t that severe as [David] got it working again after a number of small...

Repeated hits to the head do not have to knock you unconscious to harm the brain. Decades of research link long-term exposure to head impacts with memory loss, confusion, and dementia later in life. More than 100 former NFL players have been diagnosed after death with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE. The condition has carried many names over the years, including punch-drunk syndrome and boxer’s madness, but the cause has remained the same. Researchers at the University of Utah Health are investigating ways to prevent long-term brain injuries. Their preliminary studies indicate that near-infrared light therapy could help prevent subtle brain inflammation from repeated impacts- before an athlete shows...

Alors que la situation se tend de plus en plus à Minneapolis après la mort d’un deuxième manifestant à la suite de tirs d’un agent fédéral, la presse américaine dresse le portrait de Gregory Bovino, figure de la police des frontières. Son style, et notamment son manteau, est âprement commenté et analysé comme le symbole d’une militarisation croissante de la politique anti-immigration de Donald Trump.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called Ran Gvili’s return "an extraordinary achievement".

Lundi 26 janvier, l’armée israélienne a annoncé avoir identifié et rapatrié depuis Gaza la dépouille de Ran Gvili, tué en défendant un kibboutz le 7 octobre 2023. Le retour du corps du dernier otage du Hamas sur le sol de l’État hébreu devrait permettre une réouverture du poste-frontière de Rafah, entre la bande de Gaza et l’Égypte.

I love, love, love Saturn by [Rain2], which comes in two versions. The first, which is notably more complex, is shown here with its rings-of-Saturn thumb clusters.
Image by [Rain2] via redditSo what was the impetus for this keyboard? It’s simple: a friend mentioned that ergo keyboards are a no-go if you need a num pad really bad.
Saturn has one built right in. The basic idea was to add a num pad while keeping the total number of keys to a minimum. Thanks to a mod key, this area can be many things, including but not limited to a num pad.
As far as the far-out shape goes, and I love that the curvature covers the thumb cluster and the index finger, [Rain2] wanted to get away from the traditional thumb cluster...

“India is electrifying faster and using fewer fossil fuels per capita than China did at similar levels of economic development, according to a new report from the think tank Ember. India’s coal and oil consumption per capita is a fraction of what China’s was at similar income levels, mainly because India has access to solar panels and electric cars at a much lower price than China did about a decade ago. India and other countries may become ‘electrostates’ that meet most of their energy needs through electricity generated from clean sources, as the cost of electricity technologies continues to fall and countries seek energy independence and economic growth.” From Bloomberg.

An individual may become completely paralyzed because of any number of accidents that interfere with the functioning of the nerves in their body. People who have lost the ability to walk due to spinal cord injuries often continue to feel movement in their legs and arms, and the brain sends movement signals to their limbs. However, the spinal cord prevents the brain’s signals from reaching the legs and arms. Scientists in Italy and Switzerland are working together to figure out if they can read brain signals, like those from electroencephalography (EEG), that happen in the brain when we perform an action, and then send the read signals to a spinal cord stimulator to help restore mobility. The research has...

Although there are a few hobbies that have low-cost entry points, amateur astronomy is not generally among them. A tabletop Dobsonian might cost a few hundred dollars, and that is just the entry point for an ever-increasing set of telescopes, mounts, trackers, lasers, and other pieces of equipment that it’s possible to build or buy. [Thomas] is deep into astronomy now, has a high-quality, remotely controllable telescope, and wanted to make it more accessible to his friends and others, so he built a system that lets the telescope stream on Twitch and lets his Twitch viewers control what it’s looking at.
The project began with overcoming the $4000 telescope’s practical limitations, most notably an...
