Entrenching generative AI into Adobe's creative software ecosystem is paying off, according to the company's latest earnings. While its share price has fallen by more than 37 percent this year at the time of writing, Adobe is reporting a bump in annual profits driven by record revenue of $23.77 billion for 2025 - an 11 percent increase year-over-year that it's largely attributing to AI.
"Adobe's record FY2025 results reflect our growing importance in the global AI ecosystem and the rapid adoption of our AI-driven tools," said Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen in the press release. The company is now targeting to increase annual recurring revenue ( …

Depuis son exil en France, le président du Mouvement pour l’autodétermination de la Kabylie (MAK), Ferhat Mehenni devrait annoncer le 14 décembre l’indépendance de la région à majorité berbère du nord de l’Algérie. Manœuvre essentiellement symbolique, elle ne devrait pas avoir de conséquence sur le terrain. Mais ce nouveau pas franchi par le mouvement ne plaît pas du tout à Alger et risque de peser encore sur les relations franco-algériennes.

Google et le CA/Browser Forum viennent d’annoncer la mise à mort de 11 méthodes de validation de domaine pour les certificats HTTPS. Bye bye les emails, les coups de fil, les fax (oui, y’en avait encore qui utilisaient ça) et le courrier postal pour valider les certificats car d’ici mars 2028, tout ça sera du passé.
Car quand vous demandez un certificat SSL/TLS pour votre site, l’autorité de certification doit vérifier que vous êtes bien le proprio du domaine. Historiquement, ça pouvait se faire via un email envoyé à l’adresse WHOIS, un coup de téléphone, ou même un courrier papier mais le problème, c’est que ces méthodes sont faciles à falsifier.

Anti-piracy groups provide regular reminders that pirate sites expose users to malware and related security risks. In some cases, no action is required for users to come to harm, all they have to do is visit a malicious site.
While not the most common route of infection, under the right circumstances that can indeed happen. Yet something we saw for ourselves this week may go even further than that. When blocking measures are deployed against dozens of sites, there’s a period of uncertainty in which many pirates are traditionally less cautious about visiting alternative sites. For those who benefit from internet users clicking first and thinking later, there’s arguably no better time to target pirates. In...

Et il leur a fallu neuf ans de R&D pour y arriver ! La pièce en question se trouve dans le set Holiday Express Train (10361) de la gamme LEGO Icons, disponible depuis octobre.

Retro gaming handheld manufacturer Ayaneo has finally revealed the design of its first Android phone, which has been teased since August. Fittingly, it too is a throwback - to 2011's Sony Ericcson Xperia Play.
The Pocket Play has a screen that slides up to reveal a full set of inset physical controls, including a D-pad, ABXY fact buttons, and two circular touch pads. There are twin sets of shoulder buttons round the back of the phone too, though no sign of a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Unfortunately, that's all we know. The Pocket Play is only confirmed to launch "soon," and the Kickstarter campaign page doesn't reveal a single spec.

The age of cheap and powerful devices is upon us. How about a 20 EUR handheld game console intended for retro game emulation, that runs Linux under the hood? [Luiz Ferreira] kicks the tires of a R36S, a very popular and often cloned device running a quad-core RK3326 with an Ubuntu-based OS, and shows us how to write and cross-compile a simple app for it using Rust – even if you daily drive Windows.
Since a fair bit of the underlying Linux OS is exposed, you can quickly build even text applications and have them run on the console. For instance, [Luiz]’s app uses ratatui to scan then print button and joystick states to the screen. Perhaps the most important thing about this app is that it’s a detailed...

The Dutch word for sundial, zonnewijzer, can be literally translated into “Sun Pointer” according to [illusionmanager] — and he took that literal translation literally, building a reverse sundial so he would always know the precise location of our local star, even when it is occluded by clouds or the rest of the planet.
The electronics aren’t hugely complicated: an ESP32 dev board, an RTC board, and a couple of steppers. But the craftsmanship is, as usual for [illusionmanager], impeccable. You might guess that one motor controls the altitude and the other the azimuth of the LED-filament pointer (a neat find from AliExpress), but you’d be wrong.
This is more like an equatorial mount, in that the shaft...

For as long as there have been supercomputers, people like us have seen the announcements and said, “Boy! I’d love to get some time on that computer.” But now that most of us have computers and phones that greatly outpace a Cray 2, what are we doing with them? Of course, a supercomputer today is still bigger than your PC by a long shot, and if you actually have a use case for one, [Stephen Wolfram] shows you how you can easily scale up your processing by borrowing resources from the Wolfram Compute Services. It isn’t free, but you pay with Wolfram service credits, which are not terribly expensive, especially compared to buying a supercomputer.

There’s a type of dust-collector that’s been popular since the 1990s, where a cube of acrylic or glass is laser-etched in a three-dimensional pattern. Some people call them bubblegrams. While it could be argued that bubblegrams are a sort of 3D display, they’re more like a photograph than a TV. [Ancient] had the brainwave that since these objects work by scattering light, he could use them as a proper 3D video display by controlling the light scattered from an appropriately-designed bubblegram.
Appropriately designed, in this case, means a point cloud, which is not exactly exciting to look at on its own. It’s when [Ancient] adds the colour laser scanning projector that things get exciting. Well, after...

When business leaders spout buzzwords like "AI," "8K" and "5G," sometimes in the same sentence, we often get a sneaking suspicion they don't know what they mean!

Right now, travelers from 42 countries - including Australia, France, Germany, Japan, and the UK - can visit the US for up to 90 days without a visa.

Prompted Playlists, which are initially launching in New Zealand on Thursday, let users type out exactly what they want to listen to, with as much or little detail as they like. Then Spotify's AI curates a playlist based on those instructions and the user's listening history. Users can also set Prompted Playlists to regularly refresh with new songs based on the same prompt, effectively allowing you to make a Discover Weekly playlist with an algorithm you control.
