L’arrêt commenté pose la question de l’articulation entre police générale du maire et police spéciale du représentant de l’État en matière de fermeture de débits de boissons. Un tel concours de polices avait donné lieu à des positions divergentes de la part des juges du fond, si bien que la solution du Conseil d’État était attendue. En s’inspirant de sa jurisprudence antérieure, ce dernier va considérer qu’un maire ne peut pas, au titre de ses pouvoirs de police générale, s’immiscer dans l’exercice de la police spéciale en ordonnant la fermeture temporaire d’un débit de boisson, sauf en cas de péril imminent. Le concours de polices générale et spéciale constitue une...

The first big outage of 2026 is here, as Verizon customers across the US, including several of our phones, complain that service has been spotty or nonexistent starting at around noon ET, with phones switching to SOS Mode and being unable to connect.
This cell service outage follows a "software issue" that cut off service for many people in August for several hours, and while Verizon has acknowledged the issue, there is no word yet on when it will be fixed.
Verizon: We are aware of an issue impacting wireless voice and data services for some customers. Our engineers are engaged and are working to identify and solve the issue quickly. We …

Naya has already shipped one successful Kickstarter for a weird keyboard. The Naya Create was an ergonomic split deck with four swappable controller addons: a touchpad, a trackball, a rotary encoder, or a 6DoF spatial mouse. The Connect takes that modular concept, applies it to a more traditional flat keyboard form factor, and expands the ecosystem to be even more flexible. And clearly, people are into the idea, because it hit its minuscule funding goal in just six minutes.
The Naya Connect has four main components: a low-profile 75% mechanical keyboard called the Naya Type, a 24-key multipad, a six-key programmable strip, and a dock. The …

Instead of hunting for a dream apartment, this Toronto couple made their own—in the lowest level of her family’s home.When Ryoo Kim jokingly suggested moving into her parents’ basement in Richmond Hill, Ontario, she didn’t expect anyone to take it seriously. But as financial pressures mounted in the downtown Toronto condo she shared with her partner, Phil Chan—with three pets taking turns getting sick, unstable income, and mounting isolation—the joke became a lifeline. "It started off like, wouldn’t it be so funny if we just moved into my parents’ place?" Ryoo says. "And then over time, as different stressors built, it became more like, maybe this could happen if we just explored it." Before:...

Researchers in the Republic of Korea are pushing smart-window design beyond glass. Professor Sung Ho Song at Kongju National University and Assistant Professor Jin Kim in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Hanbat National University led a project that turns chemically treated wood into a temperature-responsive window panel. The team reports a transparent wood that can shift between hazy privacy and clear daylighting as temperatures change. It also blocks ultraviolet light and insulates far better than standard glass. The goal targets a basic problem in building energy use. Windows admit light, but they also let heat move quickly in and out. That forces heating and cooling systems to work...

An audio amplifier was once a fairly simple analogue device, but in recent decades a typical home entertainment amplifier will have expanded to include many digital functions. When these break they are often proprietary and not easy to repair, as was the case with a broken Pioneer surround-sound device given to [Boz]. It sat on the shelf for a few years until he had the idea of a jukebox for his ripped CDs, and his returning it to life with a new main board is something to behold.
Internally it’s a surprisingly modular design, meaning that the front panel with its VFD display and driver were intact and working, as were the class AB amplifier and its power supply. He had the service manual so reverse...

Amazon has announced the first cast member of its God of War live-action adaptation on Prime Video. Ryan Hurst, known for his work as Opie in Sons of Anarchy and Beta in The Walking Dead, will play the titular God of War, Kratos. Though the casting might come as a bit of a disappointment to the fans hopeful that Christopher Judge, Kratos' award-winning voice actor in the games, might have been tapped for the role in some fashion, Hurst has familiarity with series. He voiced Thor in God of War: Ragnarok and earned a BAFTA nomination for the performance.
Amazon originally announced the God of War series in 2022 in collaboration with PlayStati …

BMW teased its forthcoming all-electric M-series performance sedan today, promising that the quad-motor M3 sports car would feature specs that are truly next level when it arrives in 2027. The M3 will have four electric motors and simulated gear shifting, a feature that is quickly becoming a must-have for electrified sports cars. BMW says the setup unlocks the benefits of both rear and all-wheel drive, with the ability to decouple the front axle.
Four motors, though, is a bit of an outlier in the performance world. Tri-motors, sure, you can find plenty, like Tesla Model S Plaid and Lucid Air Sapphire. But four motors are bit a rarer: the …

Plastic trash lining a mountain trail might not seem like the start of a chemistry breakthrough, but for Yuwei Gu, it was. Hiking through Bear Mountain State Park in New York, the Rutgers chemist saw plastic bottles scattered along the path and floating in a lake. In such a quiet place, the waste felt loud. Nature fills every living thing with polymers, from DNA and RNA to proteins and cellulose. Those natural chains do their jobs and then break down. Synthetic plastics, made from different chemistry, tend to stay put for decades. That contrast hit Gu in the middle of the woods. “Biology uses polymers everywhere, such as proteins, DNA, RNA and cellulose, yet nature never faces the kind of long-term...

For those born with certain types of congenital deafness, the cochlear implant has been a positive and enabling technology. It uses electronics to step in as a replacement for the biological ear that doesn’t quite function properly, and provides a useful, if imperfect, sense of hearing to its users.
New research has promised another potential solution for some sufferers of congenital deafness. Instead of a supportive device, a gene therapy is used to enable the biological ear to function more as it should. The result is that patients get their sense of hearing, not from a prosthetic, but from their own ears themselves. New Therapy

Researchers at the Institute of Science Tokyo in Japan, also known as Science Tokyo, have taken a fresh look at a long running question in aging and brain science. Can the health of your teeth and mouth shape the risk of dementia later in life? The work is led by Professor Jun Aida of the Department of Dental Public Health at Science Tokyo’s Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences. Aida and his team reviewed dozens of large population studies and also ran their own long term research. Their goal was to sort out whether poor oral health truly raises dementia risk or whether the link is more complicated. Their main review appeared in the Journal of Dental Research. It brought together new methods from...

The ESP32-P4 is the new hotness on the microcontroller market.

[DynaMight] was looking for an excuse to play with this powerful new system on a chip, so put together what he calls the GB300-P4: a commercial handheld game console with an Expressif brain transplant.
Older ESP32 chips weren’t quite up to 16-bit emulation, but that hadn’t stopped people trying; the RetroGo project by [ducalex] already has an SNES and Genesis/Mega Drive emulation mode, along with all the 8-bit you could ask for. But the higher-tech...
