Je me suis posé une question récemment : quel est le jeu Pippin le plus récent (ou le dernier jeu sorti, selon votre point de vue) ? La console est sortie en mars 1996, elle a été un flop assez rapidement, et donc la date de sortie du dernier titre peut être intéressante. C’est évidemment parcellaire étant donné qu’il y a encore quelques disques inconnus, mais on peut tout de même partir sans trop se tromper sur un disque précis : TV Works Pop ’99. Son nom l’indique, il date de 1999, presque trois ans après la sortie de la console. Je suis parti de la date de création du fichier d’authentification des disques, c’est un bon indice sur la date de pressage étant donné que de simples...

Water timers are nifty devices that can water the lawn at set times or keep that vegetable garden from turning into a dustbowl. When [electronupdate] timer refused to output water on any of its three outlets, he did the right thing. Instead of angrily checking the warranty on the sodding thing, he tore it apart to attempt a repair.
As expected, the design of these devices is quite straightforward. Three solenoids control whether an outlet is open or closed. A control board also handles the user controls and display.
There was no obvious sign of damage, and the PCB was potted in a white substance that should have kept out any moisture. A quick check with a battery revealed that the three solenoids also worked...

Des journalistes de CNN, Politico et MSNOW se sont vu refuser l’accès à l’enceinte de la résidence présidentielle, samedi, au lendemain de l’annonce par Donald Trump de son intention de les bannir.

Le président français, qui est arrivé sur l’archipel de l’Atlantique Nord samedi, doit recevoir le premier ministre canadien, Mark Carney. Ce déplacement renforce la volonté du Canada de prendre ses distances avec les Etats-Unis.

Comment expliquer la popularité de l’extrême droite dans l’est de l’Allemagne ? Stigmatisation, contrôle étatique, politique de l’émotion et pensée unique… Dans un entretien fleuve avec le quotidien de gauche “Süddeutsche Zeitung”, le célèbre sociologue Hartmut Rosa réagit à la victoire de l’AfD en Saxe-Anhalt, analyse les évolutions politiques du laboratoire qu’est la République fédérale et en tire des conséquences pour toute l’Europe.

Dans sa rubrique “Est-il vrai que… ? ”, le quotidien britannique “The Guardian” tente de répondre aux questions que l’on s’est toutes et tous déjà posées. Cette semaine, il est question du lien entre humeur et anti-inflammatoires.

Selon les autorités russes, au moins deux personnes ont été tuées au cours de cette attaque et une importante raffinerie a été endommagée. En Ukraine, un drone russe a touché une maison près de Kiev, tuant une femme et deux enfants.

The RP2350 is actually a pretty secure chip, all things considered. It has secure boot, ARMv8’s TrustZone to split secure and non-secure execution, and you can permanently disable debug — the Pi Foundation even included glitch detection, meaning the traditional ‘zap the chip until it obeys’ technique is blocked. That’s why the [Ledger Donjon] security team went full Bond Villain and strapped everyone’s favourite fruit-flavoured microcontroller to a table with a slowly-approaching laser beam. The bench setup to do all this is pretty impressive– and came with an impressive 250,000 USD price tag.
Okay — movie clichés aside, the laser was in fact very carefully focused on target before they turned...

A reported strike on a fuel depot at Riyadh airport caused delays on Saturday, as Saudi Arabia says it shot down a ballistic missile aimed at the capital.

“The Ford/Hill Project,” a documentary play, may capture recent events, but it’s a product of the present: activist theatre in a moment when the idea of civic urgency is losing purchase.

Denmark and the US have reached an agreement after months of threats from Donald Trump to annex the territory.

A Linux handheld computer is, in theory, easy and inexpensive given the availability of single-board computers, but in practice the budget invariably edges well into three figures. There’s an interesting alternative from [bkovac] that won’t break the bank as much, using a cheap 4G wireless hotspot, an iPhone USB keyboard case accessory, and, though a cheaper display could suffice, a fancy Adafruit Sharp memory display.
The hotspot is available from AliExpress for around 20 dollars/Euros/pounds, and it’s referred to by its model number, MF800. It’s powered by a Qualcomm MSM8916, also known as the Snapdragon 410, which you might have found in a budget cellphone early in the last decade. Importantly,...

Meta's Muse is apparently an effective AI assistant, but one that's a little creepy. Part of that is because of its new Mac app, which can access Messages, Calendar, and Notes. But for all its smarts, Muse doesn't actually know how to describe itself. Jason Aten, a contributing editor at Inc Magazine, posted on Threads screenshots of an interaction he had with Muse in which the assistant asks him some questions about a conversation he was having in Messages. The problem is that Aten says he didn't give Muse access to his messages. When asked how it knew about the contents of his messages, Muse replied, "I saw the notification previews, not …

This article is written on an open-source operating system, but not an open-source machine — the BIOS isn’t open-source, and even if it were supported by the coreboot project (formerly LinuxBIOS), there would still be a whole host of binary blobs required to get it to boot. On one vintage architecture, there’s one less blob, as coreboot can now initialize DRAM on Intel Bay Trail SOCs, as [Mate Kukri] presented in a talk at the recent Open Source Firmware Conference.
Bay Trail isn’t exactly cutting-edge hardware, to be sure — the SoCs are over a decade old at this point, and were only used in low-performance mobile applications like Chromebooks. On the other hand, coreboot has been on Chromebooks for...

The President wants to give his favorite technology a rebrand, but he needs your help.

Paramount hopes to have a movie for everyone, and that includes making 'Crawl' and 'Heart Eyes' into franchises.

Can a state just do that?

President Donald Trump speaks to reporters on the tarmac before boarding Air Force One. (Photo by Andrew Harnik/Getty Images) | Getty Images On Friday, the president threatened to ban CNN, MS Now, and Politico from the White House. It could have just been another one of his Truth Social fever dreams, but it turns out it's very real. All three publications were turned away from the White House this morning, NPR reports, marking an escalation in the administration's war on the First Amendment.
Politico tried to get to the bottom of it, asking why now? It reports that "many senior [White House] staff were surprised by the directive" (what's new?), and that it was done "while chief of staff Susie Wiles was out of...

Although it wasn’t apparently designed with this in mind, it seems particularly fortuitous that this walking robotic hand was released in time for Halloween. Designed by researchers from ETH Zurich, the slightly unsettling disembodied hand can use its fingers as legs to traverse terrain, push small objects around, and operate a keyboard.
The researchers started from commercially-available robot hand, equipped it with a battery and Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, and developed neural net-based software to control it. The hand has twenty joints, four per finger, and the neural net iteratively outputs the next joint state, based on previous movements, the state of the hand, and the hand’s current goal. To train the...

In May, Gemini broke containment and hacked three different companies, but Google didn't disclose the incident until the Wall Street Journal approached the company. The hacks happened during a test of the model's cybersecurity capabilities run by third-party Irregular, which was also involved in similar incidents involving Meta and OpenAI. According to WSJ, Google didn't disclose the hack because it didn't consider it to be an "example of model misalignment." The company said that it was an instance of "mistaken identity," and once the model realized it had brute-forced its way into a real company by guessing a password, it stopped. "In th …

Band members Luke Silas, Ary Warnaar, Peter Burkman, and James DeVito (left to right). Maybe their next album will be recorded entirely in a windmill? | Image: Joshua Tarn Anamanaguchi, the band consisting of Peter Berkman, James DeVito, Luke Silas, and Ary Warnaar, are most known for their chiptune music. Like me, you might have first heard them in game soundtracks like 2010's Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game or know of their collaboration with Hatsune Miku (which even made its way into Fortnite). They've gone through different eras of breakneck chiptune beats and dance-y pop songs, but their 2025 album Anyway took an indie rock departure - written at the American Football house and filled with fuzzy...

Earlier this month, French President Emmanuel Macron and South Korean President Lee Jae Myung hosted a one-day gathering of studio bosses, ministers and filmmakers in the south of France.
This Lumière Summit closed with the signing of several thematic declarations, including one on international cooperation against piracy. Representing Hollywood, Motion Picture Association (MPA) CEO Charles Rivkin was scheduled to give a keynote before a session on “the race against piracy,” but was held up in a presidential meeting. While MPA’s EMEA president Emilie Anthonis filled in briefly, the tone was already set by a minister, who put the piracy talk in perspective.

Derrière les milliards brassés par la Silicon Valley dans la course à l'intelligence artificielle, se joue une autre ruée vers l’or, beaucoup moins médiatisée : celle des industriels de la chimie qui fournissent une partie des produits nécessaires à la fabrication des infrastructures qui sous-tendent les systèmes d’IA. Parmi ces substances, on retrouve les très controversés « polluants éternels ».

“A species lost for over a century is once again shaping northern Mexico’s landscape. The American bison, a species that once roamed across vast stretches of northern Mexico, has been reintroduced to parts of its historical range after being hunted to near extinction in the late 19th century. What began as a single conservation herd in Chihuahua has grown into a multi-state recovery effort that is now showing measurable ecological results.” From Yucatán Magazine.

“The White-rumped Vulture (WRV; Gyps bengalensis), endemic to South and Southeast Asia, was once possibly the most abundant large raptor in the world. In 1985, renowned vulture expert, David Houston, wrote ‘It is very abundant throughout India… …Its ability to live alongside man probably makes it the least vulnerable of all vultures…’. Yet it was this close relationship with humans that ultimately led to the species’ downfall and near extinction, when millions of vultures were unintentionally poisoned by the veterinary drug diclofenac. This led to declines of more than 90% across South Asia… Nepal has been particularly successful in eliminating diclofenac from the veterinary market, which has...
