Dans les années nonante, au moment du lancement de la console Pippin, Bandai avait une newsletter pour les développeurs. C’est assez intéressant à lire, avec de petits détails pratiques sur le développement. Je continue avec la quatrième. Elle a été publiée en janvier 1996 est disponible sur archive.org. C’est parfois compliqué à afficher correctement, parce que l’encodage des caractères n’est pas celui utilisé en 2025. Avec Safari, il faut faire Présentation -> Encodage du texte -> Japonais (ISO 2022-JP). Même comme ça, il manque quelques caractères, donc je suppose que c’est un encodage plus ancien.

[joppedc] wrote in to let us know that the Formula 1® season is coming to an end, and that the final race should be bangin’. To get ready, he built this ultra-sleek logo light box last week that does more than just sit there looking good, although it does that pretty well. This light box reacts to live race events, flashing yellow for safety cars, red for red flags, and green for, well, green flags. The excellent light box itself was modeled in Fusion 360, and the files are available on MakerWorld. The design is split into four parts — the main body, a backplate to mount the LEDs, the translucent front plate, and an enclosure for an ESP32.
Doing it this way allowed [joppedc] to not only print in...

Russia carried out strikes on Kremenchuk, while its defence ministry said it had shot down 77 Ukrainian drones in several locations.

Réunis samedi à Doha, les pays médiateurs et garants du cessez-le-feu à Gaza ont réclamé la mise en œuvre sans délai de la deuxième phase du plan de paix, et appelé au retrait complet des troupes israéliennes du territoire palestinien.

BONNES FEUILLES // Dans son nouvel essai Futurs No Future. Que reste-t-il du cyberpunk ?, Antoine Daer, auteur, journaliste collaborateur d'Usbek & Rica et fondateur du média en ligne Cosmo Orbüs tisse une réflexion critique et personnelle sur l’émergence, l’évolution, la mort et l’héritage du cyberpunk, et suggère des moyens pour dépasser la crise de l'imaginaire qui frappe l'époque. On vous partage l'introduction de son livre.

Depuis plusieurs semaines, Laurent Wauquiez propose un départage allant de Gérald Darmanin à l’eurodéputée Reconquête ! Le chef des députés plaide pour rassembler « toute la droite », quitte à entrouvrir la porte au parti et aux idées d’Eric Zemmour.

Officials believe a gas canister explosion triggered the fire which tore through the busy nightlife venue.

En ces temps d’obsession pour les calories et de nouvelles considérations alimentaires, la consommation de pain des Français chute. Et même la fameuse baguette peine à continuer de séduire, constate ce journaliste du quotidien suisse “Tages-Anzeiger”.

Dans “Gamma visions”, le dessinateur berlinois Jens Harder imagine ce qui attend l’humanité et la Terre pour les cent prochains milliards d’années. Il clôt ainsi en beauté une monumentale saga visuelle en quatre tomes, du Big Bang au Big Crunch, parue quasi simultanément en Allemagne et en France. Le quotidien autrichien “Der Standard” est enthousiaste.

La réunion a pour objectif de faire le point sur « les négociations en cours dans le cadre de la médiation américaine », a annoncé le président français. « Nous devons continuer à faire pression sur la Russie pour la contraindre à la paix », a-t-il également déclaré samedi sur X, réitérant son « soutien indéfectible » à Kiev.

More than 100,000 homes were destroyed when powerful rains lashed the South East Asian country last week.

USB PD is a fun protocol to explore, but it can be a bit complex to fully implement. It makes sense we’re seeing new stacks pop up all the time, and today’s stack is a cool one as far as code reusability goes. [Vitaly] over on Hackaday.io brings us pdsink – a C++ based PD stack with no platform dependencies, and fully-featured sink capabilities. This stack can do SPR (5/9/15/20V) just like you’d expect, but it also does PPS without breaking a sweat – perfect for your Lithium Ion battery charging or any other current-limited shenanigans. What’s more, it can do EPR (28V and up) – for all your high-power needs. For reference, the SPR/PPS/EPR combination is all you could need from a PD stack intended...

[Michael Lynch] recently decided to delve into the world of off-grid, decentralized communications with MeshCore, because being able to communicate wirelessly with others in a way that does not depend on traditional communication infrastructure is pretty compelling. After getting his hands on a variety of hardware and trying things out, he wrote up his thoughts from the perspective of a hardware-curious software developer.
He ends up testing a variety of things: MeshCore firmware installed on a Heltec V3 board (used via an app over Bluetooth), a similar standalone device with antenna and battery built in (SenseCAP T-1000e, left in the header image), and a Lilygo T-Deck+ (right in the header image above). These...

If you’ve got an RTL-SDR compatible receiver, you’ve probably used it for picking up signals from all kinds of weird things. Now, [Jaron McDaniel] has built a tool to integrate many such devices into the world of Home Assistant.
It’s called RTL-HAOS, and it’s intended to act as a bridge. Whatever you can pick up using the RTL_433 tool, you can set up with Home Assistant using RTL-HAOS. If you’re unfamiliar with RTL_433, it’s a multitalented data receiver for picking up all sorts of stuff on a range of bands using RTL-SDR receivers, as well as a range of other hardware. While it’s most closely associated with products that communicate in the 433 MHz band, it can also work with products that talk...

Amid rumors that Tim Cook may leave soon, many of his direct reports are retiring or otherwise moving on.

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman is reporting that Johny Srouji, senior vice president of hardware technologies, told Tim Cook he is “seriously considering” leaving Apple for another company in the near future. It was reported in October that Srouji was “evaluating his future at the tech giant.” While nothing is confirmed, it seems the executive is leaning towards not having a future at Cupertino. If Srouji leaves, he would be just the latest in a string of high-profile shakeups in the company’s C-suite. COO Jeff Williams announced his retirement in July, which led to some shifting of roles. But things have only accelerated in December, with AI chief John Giannandrea stepping down, policy lead Lisa Jackson...

Old friends and new (and old) enemies await when 'Trigun Stargaze' premieres in January.

Nothing lasts forever, and that includes the ROMs required to make a retrocomputer run. Even worse, what if you’re rolling your own firmware? Period-appropriate EPROMs and their programmers aren’t always cheap or easy to get a hold of these days. [Kyo-ta04] had that problem, and thanks to them, we now all have a solution: Pico2ROMEmu, a ROM emulator based on, you guessed it, the Raspberry Pi Pico2. The Pico2ROMEmu in its natural habitat on a Z80 SBC.
The ROM emulator has been tested at 10MHz with a Z80 processor and 12MHz with an MC68000. An interesting detail here is that rather than use the RP2350’s RISC-V or ARM cores, [kyo-ta04] is doing all the work using the chip’s powerful PIO. PIO means...

It’s a great time to consider buying Nintendo’s latest console. | Photo: Cameron Faulkner / The Verge Cyber week has just about wrapped up, but there are still some amazing Cyber Monday leftovers that you can save money on. The one deal we can’t stop telling readers about is the unexpected $50 discount on Nintendo’s Switch 2 console bundle that includes Mario Kart World, bringing it down to $449.99 (was $499.99). Currently, you can snag the bundle at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. It’s the best Switch 2 console to buy for the holidays because it comes with Mario Kart World, a fun racing game that’s $79.99 to buy outside of the bundle. You’re getting it for free instead.

Trump's Made-in-America dream isn't happening for toymakers. Small businesses could be hardest-hit

Dans le cadre du projet de loi de finances pour 2026, la majorité sénatoriale de droite et du centre est parvenue à faire adopter des amendements prévoyant le non-remplacement d’un fonctionnaire de l’Etat sur deux partant à la retraite. Le Sénat a aussi voté l’augmentation du nombre de jours de carence dans la fonction publique. L’Assemblée aura le dernier mot.

It's been a few years since the official introduction of the Bluetooth technology Auracast, which allows devices like earbuds, headphones, speakers, and hearing aids to connect to a single source without the need for pairing. Like a radio picks up your local radio stations, all you have to do is connect to the right broadcast. These could be flight announcements from your gate at the airport, the microphone a teacher is using during a presentation, or the TV you're watching while on the treadmill at the gym.
By letting you link directly into one of these broadcasts, Auracast can increase auditory accessibility for those who are hard of hear …

Frankenstein, Troll 2, and A House of Dynamite are just a few of the movies you should watch on Netflix this month.

Everyone had a good laugh at HBO Max this week when the new 4K Mad Men remaster debuted with a number of glaring errors that should have been caught before the show was uploaded to the streamer's servers. Episodes went live with incorrect titles, and in one instance you could still see members of the show's production crew who shouldn't have been visible on-camera. The mistakes were reportedly the result of Lionsgate Television - Mad Men's original production company - sending over the incorrect set of exported files.
It is wild to think that no one at HBO noticed that the remastered "Red in the Face" episode still included a clear shot of …

Stranger Things, The Beast in Me, and Last Samurai Standing are just a few of the shows you need to watch on Netflix this month.

It was only in June that Jeremy Carrasco uploaded his first videos to TikTok and Instagram. In that short time, he's amassed over 300,000 followers on each platform. No, it's not exactly Charli D'Amelio numbers, but that does make him one of the biggest names in AI literacy on social media. Jeremy told The Verge that he always wanted to try his hand at being a YouTuber. Instead, he found himself behind the camera, working as a producer and director on multicamera livestreams. But he finally decided to take the plunge after realizing that most of the dialogue around generative AI was being driven by the tech companies. "We need other people …

In 2023, Lithuania amended its Code of Administrative Offenses, allowing media watchdog LRTK to fine pirates, without going to court. This legislative change was specifically designed to deter piracy in the European country. With potential fines on the line, pirates would reconsider their habits, the idea was. Tracking Torrent Tracker Pirates
Over the past two years, dozens of fines were handed out. The targets were mostly first-time offenders who received the minimum fine of 140 euros. For repeat offenses, however, fines can potentially reach 850 euros.
What makes these fines stand out is that LRTK predominantly targets users of the private torrent trackers Linkomanija and Torrent.lt. These are two of the...
