Keanu Reeves in Outcome. | Image: Apple For much of its existence, Apple's streaming service has seemed intent to focus on quality over quantity, offering some great shows but often feeling barren in comparison to competitors like Netflix and Disney. But as Apple TV looks to expand its reach to hit a larger audience, it appears the "quantity" part of that equation is being addressed to some degree. Fresh off detailing returning series Ted Lasso and Sugar, Apple just announced a deluge of titles that will be streaming this year.
Here's everything that Apple announced or detailed just yesterday: the episodic thriller Imperfect Women, which starts streaming on March 18th

In late 2025, the Department of Homeland Security zeroed in on the Twin Cities in Minnesota, supposedly in response to fraud allegations made by a right-wing influencer. In the months since, thousands of immigrants have been swept up by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. In January alone, two American citizens were killed while documenting ICE operations in the city. Two Customs and Border Protection agents deployed to Minneapolis fatally shot protester Alex Pretti on January 24th, triggering another wave of protests throughout the city - and another DHS crackdown. One local who was arrested while protesting at the site of Alex's killin …

Microsoft has a new head of security. Hayete Gallot, who left Microsoft in October 2024 to become the president of Google Cloud's customer experience, is returning to the software giant as the executive vice president of security, reporting directly to CEO Satya Nadella.
The move means Charlie Bell, formerly Microsoft's security chief, is taking on a new role at the company. "I've also asked Charlie Bell to take on a new role focused on engineering quality, reporting to me," says Nadella, in an internal Microsoft memo. "Charlie and I have been planning this transition for some time, given his desire to move from being an org leader to being …

Pixel 10A teaser | Image: Google Google has taken the wraps off the Pixel 10A, the latest in its line of budget-friendly smartphones. A teaser shared on Wednesday shows off the new device in a powdery blue color, which will be available for preorder on February 18th.
Based on the teaser shared by Google, the Pixel 10A looks a lot like its 9A predecessor. It features two cameras inside a flat, oblong cutout on the rear of the device, and it looks like it comes with some similarly-sized bezels. Google didn't share any more details about the device's specifications, so we'll likely have to wait a little longer to hear more. We don't know how much the Pixel 10A will cost, ei …

Recent neuroscience research shows that our brain’s organization of the visual world occurs much earlier than previously thought by scientists. As early as 2 months of age, babies exhibit clear evidence of distinguishing and grouping the objects they see within their environment. These results are documented in a study published this week in Nature Neuroscience. The study, led by Cliona O’Doherty at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, examined an international team of researchers who utilized advanced neuroimaging techniques to investigate how infants recognize differences in the images they see and sort them into various collections. The researchers found that babies of two months old can identify and...

Trois navires de guerre américains croisent dans la baie de Port-au-Prince depuis mardi 3 février. Un avertissement des États-Unis aux gangs mais aussi une manière de superviser la nouvelle phase de transition politique qui doit s’ouvrir le 7 février, relève la presse haïtienne.

J’ai actuellement la possibilité d’accueillir une nouvelle personne en analyse, soit en présentiel, soit à distance.
Depuis plusieurs années, j’ai pu vérifier que la psychanalyse en distanciel se déploie sans inconvénient : elle permet aussi d’instaurer ce « hors champ visuel » qui, depuis Freud, favorise la parole libre.

There are many solutions for remote control keyboards, be they Bluetooth, infrared, or whatever else. Often they leave much to be desired, and come with distinctly underwhelming physical buttons. [konkop] has a solution to these woes we’ve not seen before, turning an ESP32-S3 into a USB HID keyboard with a web interface for typing and some physical keyboard macro buttons. Instead of typing on the thing, you connect to it via WiFi using your phone, tablet, or computer, and type into a web browser. Your typing is then relayed to the USB HID interface.
The full hardware and software for the design is in the GitHub repository. The macro buttons use Cherry MX keys, and are mapped by default to the common control...

Vous connaissez mon opinion que le sort des « cryptos » (jetons commercialisables) et de Trump sont à ce point liés que chacun joue le rôle de baromètre pour l’autre. P.S. Très logiquement – vu le potentiel à l’escroquerie de la chose – les Vénézuéliens avaient même pu utiliser les cryptos pour berner Trump !

Doctors are finding new hope for people at risk of losing their sight from age-related macular degeneration, or AMD. Research from the University of Liverpool suggests that metformin, a long-used diabetes drug, may slow the disease before it reaches more serious stages. Metformin was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1994 for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It was earlier approved for use in the UK in 1958. AMD primarily affects the area of the retina responsible for sharp vision, known as the macula, and damages the light-sensitive cells that comprise that part of the retina over time. As a result, people develop difficulty reading, driving, and recognizing faces. It is also the...

A neutrino slammed into Earth in 2023 with so much energy that it looked almost unreal. The particle carried about 220 peta–electron volts, or PeV, making it the most energetic neutrino ever reported. That is roughly 100,000 times more energy than the highest-energy particle produced by the Large Hadron Collider. Now physicists at University of Massachusetts Amherst say the event may fit a bold explanation. In a study published in Physical Review Letters, they argue the neutrino could have come from a tiny, ancient black hole that reached the end of its life and detonated. The team includes Andrea Thamm, Joaquim Iguaz Juan and Michael Baker. The detection came from the KM3NeT Collaboration, a neutrino...

In 1958, the American free-market economist Leonard E Read published his famous essay I, Pencil, in which he made his point about the interconnected nature of free market economics by following everything, and we mean Everything, that went into the manufacture of the humble writing instrument.
I thought about the essay last week when I wrote a piece about a new Chinese microcontroller with an integrated driver for small motors, because a commenter asked me why I was featuring a non-American part. As a Brit I remarked that it would look a bit silly were I were to only feature parts made in dear old Blighty — yes, we do still make some semiconductors! — and it made more sense to feature cool parts wherever...

La dernière livraison des « Epstein Files » par le ministère américain de la justice confirme la très grande proximité entre la patronne franco-allemande du groupe Edmond de Rothschild et le criminel sexuel.

Lawyers for the unnamed woman claim she was 'treated like a prostitute' at Jeffrey Epstein's home.

In Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, a protein called tau can pile up inside brain cells and form toxic clumps. Those clumps help drive memory loss and other symptoms. Yet some neurons seem to hold on longer than others. New work from UCLA Health and UC San Francisco helps explain why; it also points to new places scientists might target with future drugs. Researchers from the two universities, led by neurologist Dr. Avi Samelson, used lab-grown human neurons to map the cell systems that raise or lower tau. Samelson is now an assistant professor of Neurology at UCLA Health; he did much of the work while at UC San Francisco. The team published the study in Cell. A genome-wide search for tau’s...

Although [Thomas] really likes the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 and the RP2350 MCU, he absolutely, totally, really doesn’t like the micro-USB connector on it. Hence he jumped on the opportunity to source a Pico 2 clone board with the same MCU but with a USB-C connector from AliExpress. After receiving the new board, he set about comparing the two to see whether the clone board was worth it after all. In the accompanying video you can get even more details on why you should avoid this particular clone board.
In the video the respective components of both boards are analyzed and compared to see how they stack up. The worst issues with the clone Pico 2 board are an improper USB trace impedance at 130 Ω with also a cut...

TRIBUNE // Si l'Europe veut une industrie écologique qui crée des emplois locaux, en particulier dans les filières d'avenir de l'économie circulaire, elle doit assumer de mettre en place un véritable protectionnisme vert.

Last month, we reported on an expanded class-action lawsuit in which several authors accused NVIDIA of using millions of pirated books to train its AI models.
The complaint cited internal emails showing that NVIDIA contacted Anna’s Archive seeking “high-speed access” to the shadow library’s massive collection. After being warned about the illegal nature of the materials, NVIDIA executives allegedly gave the “green light” to proceed.
Now, NVIDIA has fired back with a comprehensive motion to dismiss, calling the authors’ allegations speculative, vague, and legally insufficient.
Contact With ‘Anna’ Isn’t Enough
At the California federal court, NVIDIA argues that the authors’ complaint is...

Do you remember Nokia phones, with their Symbian OS? Dead and gone, you might think, but even they have dedicated enthusiasts here in 2026. Some of them have gone so far as to produce a new ROM for the daddy of Symbian phones, the Nokia N8, and [Janus Cycle] is giving it a spin.
For many people, the smartphone era began when the first Apple iPhones and Android devices reached the market, but the smartphone itself can be traced back almost two decades earlier to an IBM device. In the few years before the birth of today’s platforms many people even had smartphones without quite realizing what they had, because Nokia, the market leader in the 2000s, failed to make their Symbian platform user friendly in the way...
