Iran rejected Donald Trump's ultimatum for a deal to re-open the Strait of Hormuz whose closure has led to a spike in oil prices.

Chaque semaine, la chronique phénomène du “New York Times” sur l’amour vous est proposée en exclusivité, traduite en français par “Courrier international”. Aujourd’hui, un homme raconte sa relation inattendue – et tendre – avec sa propriétaire de longue date.

Depuis la fin de l’USAID, les États-Unis ont multiplié les accords sanitaires bilatéraux avec des pays africains. En échange du financement de politiques publiques de santé, Washington exige l’accès à des données sensibles et à des échantillons d’agents pathogènes, mais n’offre aucune garantie de partage équitable des bénéfices, dénonce le commentateur zimbabwéen Tafi Mhaka dans une chronique pour “Al-Jazeera”.

La Coupe du monde de football 2026, organisée conjointement par les États-Unis, le Mexique et le Canada, devait incarner, si ce n’est l’unité, au moins l’union de la région. Au contraire, les trois pays “aux objectifs distincts, aux frontières tendues et aux niveaux de confiance minimaux” vivent une “crise existentielle épouvantable”, déplore cette chroniqueuse du quotidien mexicain “El Universal”.

Un peu plus d’un an après la réouverture de Notre-Dame de Paris, les projets de restauration d’édifices religieux essaiment en France. Un phénomène d’une “intensité inédite”, se réjouit le journal catholique italien “Avvenire”.

Pour faire face à une éventuelle offensive terrestre américaine, le pouvoir iranien aurait déjà recruté jusqu’à 1 million de volontaires. Dont des jeunes âgés de moins de 15 ans, ce qui constitue un crime de guerre. Mais certains hésitent à répondre à l’appel, raconte le “Financial Times”.

There were a plethora of tiny, local ISPs in the days of dial-up internet. Along with the big providers, many cities would have more than one. Some of those have survived broadband, but none of them were as small as [Jeff Geerling]’s Pi ISP — a tiny dialup ISP built so his Aunt’s old G3 MacBook can get online at 36kbps, as God and [Robert Khan] intended.
Hardware-wise, the Raspberry Pi is at one end of the chain, and your retrocomputer at another. In between, you’ll have a USB modem plugged into the Pi, and a device called a “two-way line simulator” to create a dial tone for that plain-old-telephone goodness. [Jeff] notes that these were commonly used in prisons for the phones that visitors use to...

Exposing the Wi-Fi chip to gamma radiation. (Credit: Yasuto Narukiyo et al, 2026)
From outer space to down here on Earth, there are many places where ionizing radiation levels are high enough that they effectively bar access for humans, but also make life miserable for anything containing semiconductor technology. This is especially true for anything involving wireless communications, such as Wi-Fi. However, recently Japanese researchers have created a Wi-Fi chip that is claimed to be so radiation-hardened that it can be used even in gamma ray-rich environments, such as in the worst contaminated depths of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactor.
The indicated dose exposure of 500 kilograys that the chip survived...

Le président américain a accompagné son message, publié sur son réseau social, d’une vidéo montrant des explosions nocturnes, sans plus de détails. Il a confirmé samedi que l’ultimatum qu’il avait posé à Téhéran pour conclure un accord avec Washington ou rouvrir le détroit d’Ormuz courait jusqu’au lundi 6 avril, sans évoquer le sort du pilote américain dont l’avion de chasse a été abattu dans le ciel iranien.

The niece and grand-niece of Qasem Soleimani are in the custody of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, officials said.

Under the law, travel approvals must generally be granted and it remains unclear how the rule would be enforced if breached.

The stakes could rise further if the weapons system officer of the downed F15 Eagle plane is captured by Iran.

Every collector ends up with items that are worthless, usually because they are broken or incomplete. When [Graindead] found a 1920s glass-plate reflex camera for pennies with plenty of missing parts, it was obvious that what he had was a piece of junk. Throw it away? No, he turned it digital with the aid of a small document scanner.
A reflex camera like this one is the ancestor of the 35mm single-lens reflex cameras we may still be familiar with today, in that is has a flip-up mirror inside to bounce the light onto a ground glass screen. The photographer can see what the lens sees to set up the shot, before flipping the mirror out of the way and exposing the glass plate film by pulling out a dark slide. This...

Murphy Campbell is at the center of a brewing storm around AI and a broken copyright system. | Image: Murphy Campbell In January, folk artist Murphy Campbell discovered several songs on her Spotify profile that did not belong there. They were songs that she had recorded, but she'd never uploaded them to Spotify, and something was off about the vocals.
She quickly surmised that someone had pulled performances of the songs she posted to YouTube, created AI covers, and uploaded them to streaming platforms under her name. I ran one of the songs, "Four Marys", through two different AI detectors, and it seemed to support her suspicions with both saying it was probably AI-generated.
Campbell was shocked, "I was kind...

For once, we can avoid debating in the comments what constitutes a “cyberdeck”, because [LCLDIY] does not refer to his cyberpunk masterpiece as such — he calls it a laptop. Considering the form factor is more like an all-in-one with a built-in laser projection keyboard, that’s arguably an even more controversial label to use, but as stylish this build is, it’s what’s inside it that interests us most.
This would be much easier than the original for our old eyes, especially in the dark.
No, not the cash-register motherboard that serves as the brain, though that has got to be worth some hacker cred. No, it’s the graphics card [LCLDIY] designed to drive 10″ electroluminescent (EL) displays that...

If you've been hoping for Maul to get his moment in the sun, sounds like 'Maul: Shadow Lord' mostly delivers.

Recently, I've seen posts by a couple of people about adding human.json to their sites.
At it's core, human.json is a simple attestation that the content they publish is written by a human and not by AI.
Obviously, any AI generated site could also publish a human.json, so the system works as a web of trust - the user trusts Alice, who states that Bob is a human, allowing the user to also trust Bob.
There are a couple of browser addons (for Firefox and for Chrome) which can display an indicator of humanity.
This short post covers creating a script to easily add human.json generation to the build workflow of my sites. The Schema

I’ve spent months in the lab testing the latest AR glasses from Xreal and Viture. By “lab,” I mean cozied up on my couch each night, playing my Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch 2 on a huge, virtual screen that only I can see through these glasses. Using AR glasses as a portable display for your handhelds (and other USB-C devices, like phones, tablets, and laptops) is nothing new. However, the latest versions have one must-have feature in common: three degrees of freedom, or 3DoF, which lets you anchor the screen anywhere you’d like, as opposed to having it nauseatingly wiggle with every head movement. This won’t make AR glasses worth their $400-plus costs for most gamers. But this makes them more useful...

"This looks like AI."
It's a phrase I dread seeing as a writer who dabbles in illustration and amateur photography. In a world where generative AI technology is increasingly adept at mimicking the work of humans, people are naturally skeptical when online platforms refuse to label even obvious AI content.
This leads me to one conclusion: maybe we should start labeling human-made text, images, audio, and video with something akin to a universally recognized Fair Trade logo. The machines sure as hell aren't motivated to label their work, but the creators at risk of being displaced most definitely are.
Fortunately, I'm not alone in my thinki …

Un quart de siècle après son apparition, Windows Active Directory (AD) définit toujours les réseaux sur site. Mais il faut l’admettre : AD est un système d’identité vieillissant.

From weatherproof jackets and pants to puffers, gloves, and socks, WIRED’s winter sports experts have you covered.

The original Super Meat Boy is one of the best-known indie games of all time. Released in 2010, it's a brutally difficult 2D platformer, but so fun to play: The short levels almost feel like speedrunning puzzles, and even though they're filled with traps and buzzsaws, dying isn't so bad because you revive nearly instantly. Super Meat Boy 3D has much of the same spirit; it's just as infuriating, and just as satisfying.
Moving around as Meat Boy in 3D feels very similar to 2D, particularly his really floaty jump. Wherever you run (and where you die) you leave blood splatters, which are helpful visual reminders of where to go (or where you die …

This hose-attached smart sprinkler maps your yard, rotates on command, and measures water use. Despite these clever features, the results are a little uneven.

There are many events so far in 2026 that could reasonably have been predicted, but perhaps one which couldn’t is a Hackaday scribe in Europe unexpectedly finding herself with a constant earworm from Afroman. The rapper, who most of us know only from his year 2000 hit single about getting high, made the news after an inept police raid on his house, and in turn a court case over his musical denunciations of the authorities.
It’s fair to say they picked on the wrong guy, but in thinking about why, the answer is in the earworm. He has the unique skill of making a song irritatingly catchy, which led us to the question of how a catchy song works. As luck would have it a team from the University of Waterloo have...

In an intensive week-long session, architects, contractors, and community groups convened to develop plans that will allow the city to bump up the number of living spaces while retaining its historical character.Charleston, South Carolina, is the quintessential historic village, a place where brightly colored row homes foreground church steeples; where building ornaments are at ease in the low-rise, treelined environs. Here, the built environment reflects the city’s character, and mayor William Cogswell doesn’t want to mess with that. As a lifelong Charlestonian who worked in the private sector in property redevelopment prior to entering public office, Cogswell knows what makes his city special—but...
