A new generation of home machines has made good old drip coffee a place for connoisseurs. For more than a year, the Four is the source of my morning cup.

« Quant à la suite des opérations, nous avons un plan méthodique, avec de nombreuses surprises, pour éradiquer le régime et permettre le changement. Nous avons bien d’autres objectifs, que je ne détaillerai pas ici », a déclaré le premier ministre israélien samedi, dans une courte allocution diffusée à la télévision, faisant le bilan de l’opération lancée le 28 février avec son allié américain contre la République islamique.

It wasn't an acrimonious departure, but this specific resignation coming right now might be cause for some soul-searching internally.

Although to the average person a camera lens is just that bit of glass you stick on the front of the camera to make stuff appear in focus, there’s a whole wide world out there of lens designs and modifications with enough variety to make your head spin. Some of these designs make a big impact, while others fade away again, sometimes at the whims of film makers and photographers. Prism-based anamorphic lenses are an oddity that recently [Mathieu Stern] got his hands on. (Video, embedded below.)
During the 1950s and 1960s there was a bit of a competition between anamorphic formats, which use special lenses that...

Four people were killed in Michigan and two died in Oklahoma, officials say, as severe storms swept across parts of the US.

It's not weird that Rotta the Hutt is back so much as it's weird he's coming back via 'The Mandalorian and Grogu,' of all things.

The international divisions at Nexperia seem to hate each other so much that Chinese-Dutch international diplomacy has failed to smoothed things over.

Virginia Oldoini helped conceptualize and starred in more than four hundred portraits so experimental and expressive that they have drawn comparisons to works by Claude Cahun and Cindy Sherman.

Alors qu’ils auraient pu assurer le titre et rêver du grand chelem, Antoine Dupont et ses coéquipiers ont été débordés par le XV du Chardon, samedi à Edimbourg. Ils gardent néanmoins la tête du classement grâce au point de bonus offensif inscrit en fin de partie.

Overnight, one Israeli operation saw at least 41 people killed and 40 injured, according to the Lebanese health ministry.

Seems likely that 'Disclosure Day' is going to hit big, so Hollywood's looking to let UFO stories into its heart (and wallet).

Instant photography is a miracle of the analog age, chemical photographs that develop in your hands moments after the shutter has been pressed. You can buy instant cameras and film from Fuji and the successor company to Polaroid, the originator of the technology, but they’re expensive. Fortunately [BoxArt] is here for those seeking a cheaper alternative, with an instant camera featuring a Raspberry Pi and a printer (Lithuanian language, Google Translate link).
It’s a fairly straightforward arrangement, with the Pi Zero and camera driving a receipt printer. There’s a nicely engineered 3D printed case, and the guts of a power bank to provide the volts for the thing. There are a set of status lights on top,...

A site called PSprices has been tracking prices on Sony's digital game store and noticed something unusual: some games were being offered at different prices to different users. What's more, those offers are tracked in the PlayStation API with experiment identifiers like IPT_PILOT and IPT_OPR_TESTING.
Dynamic pricing is nothing new and is used across a number of industries. But it's often met with backlash and isn't typically found in online game stores. According to PSprices, Sony is running A/B testing on prices for over 150 games in 68 regions, though the US doesn't currently appear to be part of the experiment. For now, at least, Sony i …

Une semaine exactement après le début de la guerre, la journée du samedi 7 mars a été marquée par une litanie des bombardements : israéliens sur l’Iran au matin, puis en provenance d’Iran sur les pays du Golfe un peu plus tard. L’opération israélienne au Liban semble se poursuivre, tandis que le “Washington Post” révèle l’existence d’un rapport émettant des doutes sur la possibilité d’un changement de régime à Téhéran, envisagé par Washington.

This has been a week to remember here at The Verge. MWC 2026 in Barcelona lead straight into Apple’s week of product announcements. There was truly something for everyone, whether you’ve been wanting a company to make a phone that can start fires, or had your fingers crossed for a brand-new MacBook model that costs just $599.99. It was also a great week for gaming, with the launch of Slay the Spire 2 on Steam as an early access game, plus Pokémon Pokopia on Nintendo Switch 2, and Marathon on PC and PS5. It was also a pretty good week when it comes to deals, especially if you’re in the market for new hardware. You can nab a free gift card with a preorder of early 2026’s most anticipated tech launching...

Seyed Ali Mousavi says Iran has a "right to self-defence" if the UK directly joins US-Israeli attacks.

Le président américain ‌a déclaré, samedi, que le régime cubain, qui vit, selon lui, « ses derniers moments », souhaitait conclure un accord et que des négociations ‌à cette fin étaient en cours avec le secrétaire d’Etat, Marco Rubio.

MUNICIPALES 2026. Plus de 300 rues de la capitale où se situe une école sont devenues piétonnes. Une promesse faite par Anne Hidalgo en 2020, et dont la réalisation ravit parents, élèves et professeurs, constate le quotidien canadien “Le Devoir”.

Selon plusieurs sources interrogées par le “Washington Post”, Moscou fournirait des renseignements à Téhéran sur de potentielles cibles américaines. Un élément qui expliquerait la “sophistication” et la précision de certaines frappes de l’Iran, en riposte aux bombardements israélo-américains depuis le 28 février.

« Un jour à Montargis », épisode 2. Avant les élections municipales, « Le Monde » raconte le quotidien de la ville moyenne du Loiret, à travers les préoccupations, les problèmes et les plaisirs de ses habitants. Aujourd’hui, la transhumance des travailleurs vers la capitale.

Ils vivent l’envers de la course mondiale aux minerais, fait d’éboulements, de risques mortels élevés et de conditions de travail inhumaines. L’hebdomadaire sud-africain “The Continent” est allé à la rencontre des mineurs de la République démocratique du Congo, qui affrontent ces risques chaque jour pour alimenter la soif mondiale en minerais rares, nécessaires à la fabrication des appareils électroniques.

Walmart bought Vizio in 2024, and now it's taking the next steps to formally fold the TV maker into itself by phasing out Vizio accounts. Now, when you purchase a new Vizio TV, you'll be asked to sign in or create a Walmart account. Customers will have the option to merge their Vizio account, if they have one, with their Walmart account. Your only other option will be to simply delete it.
According to an email sent by Vizio, customers who choose to delete their account will have 30 days to request a copy of any data related to the account, after which it "may no longer be available." The email also said that while the option to merge accoun …

Souvent, les militants de gauche ont du mal à concevoir le fait que des personnes racisées puissent avoir des opinions conservatrices, relève l’écrivaine et activiste italienne d’origine ghanéenne Djarah Kan dans le quotidien italien “Domani”. Un comportement qui exprime une essentialisation et qui s’apparente à du “racisme positif”.

We were talking about [Maya Posch]’s rant on smartphones, “The Curse of the Everything Device”. Maya’s main point is that because the smartphone, or computer, can do everything, it’s hard for a person to focus down and do one thing without getting distracted, checking their whatever feed, or getting an important push notification about the Oscars. She was suggesting tying your hands to the mast by using a device that can only accommodate the one function, like a dedicated writing tool or word processor.
[Kristina Panos] compared the all-singing, all-dancing black rectangle to an everything-device of old: the all-in-one stereo receiver with built-in tape player, record player, and not just FM, but...

There are a lot of games that try to emulate The Legend of Zelda, but few that manage to capture that spirit in such a small, concise package as Ratcheteer DX. The postapocalyptic game only takes a few hours to complete, but over that span it nails the classic Zelda vibe almost perfectly, offering a real sense of adventure along with the satisfaction of figuring things out on your own.
The game is set in a bleak future when most of humanity is hibernating beneath the Earth's surface in order to wait out an ice age. To keep things going, mechanics are awakened every so often to perform maintenance on all of the machinery that keeps everyone …

The woman at the door wore a plush lobster headdress. She sat in the front hallway of a multistory event venue in Manhattan, beside a bundle of wristbands. If she granted you one, the world of ClawCon beckoned behind her - full of vibey pink and purple lighting, lobster claw headbands, multicolored name tags, sponsor information stations, and a demo stage underneath a skylight. Hundreds of people were gathered to celebrate OpenClaw, the AI assistant platform created by Peter Steinberger in November 2025. OpenClaw (previously known as Clawdbot and Moltbolt) has quickly become popular in the tech industry for being open-source, in contrast …

Depending who you ask, 3D pens are silly toys or handy tools. Those who use them as tools find them handy to fill gaps in printed assemblies or to use them as a PLA or PETG-based hot glue gun for their prints. [half-baked-research] on YouTube is in the second category, but knows that welding is better than gluing — so he built himself a 3D pen designed for plastic welding.
You can weld with a regular 3D pen, and [half-baked] demonstrates that in the video. But thanks to the low-conductivity tips on commercial pens, it’s a slow, fiddly business. By using a normal 3D printer hot-end, with its conductive brass nozzle, [half-baked] is able to get a lot more heat where it’s needed. That means the plastic on...

Les bandes de papier perforé, ça vous parle ? C'est les trucs qui sortaient des mainframes dans les années 60... Hé bien, y'a un mec qui a décidé de remettre ça au goût du jour, sauf qu'au lieu de petits trous, lui il utilise des QR codes. Et au lieu d'y stocker des données binaires, il y stocke de la musique.
Le projet (un peu old c’est vrai 😜) s'appelle QRTape et le principe c'est que vous prenez un fichier audio, vous le compressez en Opus à 12 kbps (fichier .opus de quelques Ko), vous découpez le résultat en morceaux de 2 331 octets, et chaque morceau devient un QR code imprimé sur un ruban de papier continu.

Modern-day receivers are miracles of digital audio and video processing, but compared to their more analog brethren, they can come with a host of new and fascinating faults. The Onkyo TX-SA806 and SR806 receivers were released back in 2008, with [Tony359] recently getting the latter variant in for repair. Described as having weird digital distortion on the audio outputs, this particular issue got fixed by recapping the PCB with all the digital processing in the first video on this receiver, but this left the second issue unaddressed of a persistent hum, which is the topic of the second video on this repair.

In the race to build the most capable LLM models, several tech companies sourced copyrighted content for use as training data, without obtaining permission from content owners.
Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, was one of the companies to get sued. In 2023, well-known book authors, including Richard Kadrey, Sarah Silverman, and Christopher Golden, filed a class-action lawsuit against the company.
Meta’s Bittersweet Victory
Last summer, Meta scored a key victory in this case, as the court concluded that using pirated books to train its Llama LLM qualified as fair use, based on the arguments presented in this case. This was a bittersweet victory, however, as Meta remained on the hook for...

Avant SimpleText (l’ancêtre de TextEdit dans les Mac OS classiques), il y avait TeachText. C’est un petit programme qui permet d’ouvrir les fichiers textes simplement et rapidement. Et TeachText, disponible dans le System 7.1 et avant, a un petit Easter Egg. Je me demandais pourquoi il n’y avait pas de capture sur MacKiDo, j’ai (un peu) compris : quand on fait une capture avec le raccourci classique (command + shift + 3, comme en 2026), la fenêtre n’est pas capturée. Aucune idée de la raison. La capture n’affiche pas le menu
Du coup, j’ai sorti une carte d’acquisition. L’Easter Egg s’active en pressant command et option au moment de cliquer sur le menu  -> About TeachText....

“The doctor kept hearing the same story from his patients. After taking GLP-1 weight-loss drugs and finally shedding those excess pounds, some had gone a bit rogue. They began spacing out the shots instead of injecting themselves every week. And it seemed to be working, said Dr. Mitch Biermann, an obesity and internal medicine specialist at Scripps Clinic in San Diego. ‘By the time the third person told me they were taking it every second or third week and still maintaining their weight, I started recommending it to other patients,’ he said. Dr. Biermann also conceived a study to test the strategy. Now the results of that research are in: After 36 weeks of follow-up, most of the patients who spaced out...

“Weight loss drugs could help people avoid getting addicted to alcohol, tobacco and drugs such as cannabis and cocaine, a study has found. They could also reduce the risk of people already addicted to illicit substances having an overdose, ending up in hospital or dying, according to research published in the British Medical Journal. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity, such as Mounjaro and Ozempic, are thought to work by influencing the brain’s reward pathways in order to cut cravings. They help people feel fuller by mimicking the natural substance released after eating. The US study analysed 606,434 US veterans with type 2 diabetes, who were monitored for...
