Le 14 juin, les Suisses se prononceront sur une initiative controversée, qui entend lutter contre la surpopulation en réduisant drastiquement l’immigration. Le projet, baptisé “Pas de Suisse à 10 millions”, est surtout populaire dans les territoires les moins urbanisés du pays. Le quotidien conservateur zurichois “Neue Zürcher Zeitung” a cherché à comprendre pourquoi.

Korea’s Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism rarely names the pirate sites it helps shut down, and its June 12 announcement was no exception. It redacted the three high-profile target domains as “Hari***,” “Manhwa***” and “Kun***.”
These match the names of three well-known manhwa aggregators: Harimanga, Manhwaclan and Kunmanga, all of which started having access problems in late May, right when Vietnamese police seized their servers. Initially it wasn’t clear why the sites suddenly went offline, but the authorities confirmed that this was the result of a large enforcement operation that has been in the works for a long time.
The three sites have reportedly been operated by a Vietnamese...

J'sais pas si vous saviez mais en novembre dernier, Amazon avait annoncé une nouvelle série, confiée à Martin Gero (un vétéran de la franchise). J'étais super content puisqu'en plus ça se présentait bien avec profond respect du lore, travail avec les showrunners des séries originales, séances d'écriture lancées durant 20 semaines, tournage prévu en Angleterre à la fin de l'année... Bref, ça partait plutôt pas mal !
Sauf que les execs qui avaient validé le projet chez Amazon sont partis entre temps. Et une personne, arrivée en février,...

ESP32-S3 board with VGA and audio output during development. (Credit: Ivan Svarkovsky)
The ESP32-S3 is by many metrics quite the powerful little computer, which has led to it being used even for things like emulating retro consoles and similar. Here [Ivan Svarkovsky]’s S3-MSX-PC project pushes the envelope by taking the multi-system Retro-Go project’s MSX component and optimizing it for the ESP32-S3’s Xtensa Lx7 CPU cores.
The project involves an ESP32-S3 as the core, requiring at least 8 MB of PSRAM (N16R8 configuration) to match the tested configuration. Any software is loaded into PSRAM before it’s executed, with the MSX1, MSX2 and MSX2+ supported.
For audio you have to wire up your own PDM filters...

We are fans of macro pads and especially homebrew ones. The Apna Dost project by [np_vishwakarma] ticks most of our boxes. In addition to a few buttons, there’s an encoder, an OLED display, and it runs QMK firmware. Plus, it looks good, too.
We like that the system uses an RP2040. It is possible you have everything you need to put one of these together right now. We would wish for a few more keys, but it wouldn’t be hard to add them, either. Perhaps we would have laid it out so the OLED could more easily label the macro keys, but — again — you could do that easily if you wanted to build your own. We did like that encoder could serve multiple purposes.
It always ticks us off when cheap macro pads you...

On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve's new gaming headset. Import records show that Valve's distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of "Virtual Reality Devices" on Valve's behalf - or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers. That's the same math we used to estimate that Valve imported 50 tons of game consoles in two days last month - and sin …

When you think of a computer, you probably don’t think of a tube full of motors and mechanics. However, as [Our Own Devices] shows, the Bendix AN5841 API Computer, an air position indicator computer, is exactly that. Using mechanical integrators and data from other analog systems on an airplane to provide key flight data to a pilot. You can see the video below.
These devices were made for military aircraft, including the B-29. It is odd that speed data can be derived from a pump that balances pressures using a fan. The video does a good job of explaining exactly how that works. The way engineers used mechanics to convert physical measurements into analog computations is nothing short of amazing. You have to...

Listen to the podcast or read the full transcript here. You have a recent piece in Law & Liberty called “Gilded Glory.” It starts off by noting that the Gilded Age is having something of a political moment. People are very interested in this time period, and they keep comparing it to our present one. What is going on with that? Commentators are making a historical analogy between the Gilded Age—which refers to the post-Civil War generation and a half, maybe 1865 to 1910—and the present. The term “Gilded Age” implies that there were fantastic fortunes being made, and everyone else was scrambling. And it seems maybe that’s what we’re going through today with Elon Musk and everyone else. Now, I...

They've doubled again since." He warned that "Phone prices are going up, and they'll keep going up into next year." Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone.

Although in our imagination those scale models of cars certainly can drive and steer just like their full-scale counterparts, there’s something incredibly satisfying about watching them truly come to life. Here [diorama111] is an absolute master at the craft, with the most recent conversion of a 1:150 Toyota Probox car model once again demonstrating these skills with casual ease.
We previously covered such conversions, with another recent one in 2024 involving another 1:150 scale model. That particular one demonstrated driving around on scale model roads, which shows a good practical use of this conversion if you want to have e.g. a scale model town with cars that actually drive around.

Hm! | Photo: Kristen Radtke / The Verge; Getty Images Elon Musk's SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk's actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse - gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump's second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

Sometimes it’s useful to add extra mass to a 3D print, and [Joe Fedewa] shared a simple and effective technique that uses plaster of Paris. Rather than pause the print and insert hardware or weighted bits inside, he designed the base as hollow. Not in the sense of zero infill, but in the sense of modeling a cavity into the open bottom of the object.
An open cavity in the base is perfect for filling with plaster of Paris.
After the print is complete, he mixes the dry plaster with water until it creates a thick but pourable mixture. Then the object gets turned upside-down and the cavity filled. In about an hour, it will have set up enough to be handled and worked.
Plaster of Paris has a good heft to it, but...

The approval was based on results from the VERITAC-2 trial, which compared vepdegestrant to Faslodex (chemical name: fulvestrant). The results showed that vepdegestrant was more effective for people with metastatic estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer with an ESR1 mutation that grew while being treated with hormonal therapy and a CDK4/6 inhibitor. The people in the study who took vepdegestrant lived three months longer...

“Often described as ‘Goldilocks drugs,’ macrocyclic peptides are smaller than biologics like antibodies but larger than small molecules. With their just-right size, macrocyclic peptides can travel into spaces too small for biologics to reach and, thanks to their structural rings of amino acids, can target protein-protein interactions that evade small molecules. Researchers at the biopharmaceutical company Merck have taken advantage of macrocyclic peptides’ unique properties to develop enlicitide decanoate (enlicitide), an oral macrocyclic peptide drug that lowers ‘bad’ cholesterol by inhibiting proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9)… The only problem is that enlicitide is a very...

Elon Musk is now officially the world's first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale - a thousand times more than a billion - is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren't among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let's try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years.
