Ce ne sont pas des exploits, hein, mais juste des fonctions parfaitement légitimes de programmes installés partout, et qui dans le bon contexte (genre un bit SUID oublié, qui fait tourner un binaire avec les droits du propriétaire, souvent root) permettent de spawner un shell, lire un fichier protégé, ou grimper d'un cran dans la hiérarchie des privilèges. Petit rappel quand même, faut déjà avoir un pied sur la machine, ce n'est pas une porte d'entrée magique...

L’explosion du prix du kérosène, mais aussi la crainte de pénuries, font grimper les prix des billets d’avion. Alors que les compagnies aériennes annulent une partie de leurs vols pour mai et juin, les vacanciers craignent que leurs voyages ne soient compromis, et cherchent d’autres possibilités.

The war’s ripple effects have exacerbated conflicts, economic insecurity, and regional tensions around the world, including in Ukraine.

Sur Hackaday, un maker a publié une variante rigolote de lévitation acoustique : un mini terrain d'air hockey où les palets flottent au-dessus du sol grâce à des ondes ultrasonores.
Le truc fun ça n'est pas la lévitation en elle-même, technique connue depuis longtemps et déjà couverte sur le site, mais la manière dont elle est mise en œuvre pour éviter les zones mortes habituelles qui rendent ce genre de dispositif statique. Le principe classique de la lévitation ultrasonique utilise un ou plusieurs transducteurs qui créent une onde stationnaire, et les petits objets restent piégés dans les nœuds de cette onde. Le souci, quand on veut faire bouger l'objet horizontalement, c'est que les nœuds...

Quand les utilisateurs interrompent leurs traitements antiobésité à base de GLP-1, comme l’Ozempic, le Wegovy ou le Mounjaro, ils reprennent fatalement du poids.

Travailler à distance dans des pays où le coût de la vie est très bas leur a permis de vivre confortablement durant plusieurs années. Quand ils envisagent aujourd’hui leur retour aux États-Unis, les télétravailleurs que “The New York Times” a interrogés estiment qu’ils n’ont aucune chance de pouvoir profiter du même niveau de vie aux États-Unis.

La commission d’enquête parlementaire sur « la neutralité, le fonctionnement et le financement de l’audiovisuel public » s’est très vite transformée en tribunal et ses auditions ont été instrumentalisées par son rapporteur, Charles Alloncle, pour colporter des fausses informations.

Une femme est morte fin mars, ajoutant une nouvelle victime à un bilan déjà lourd. Une vidéo que « Le Monde », « Lighthouse Reports », « Der Spiegel » et « Komune » se sont procurée éclaire un autre arraisonnement, en février, et remet en cause la version des policiers.

The last few weeks have bordered on overwhelming for science fiction fans. While Project Hail Mary is dominating the box office, For All Mankind is currently in the midst of its penultimate season, with a spinoff streaming next month. When it comes to games, Capcom kicked off a new sci-fi franchise with Pragmata, and Housemarque is about to launch the haunting shooter Saros. With all of that going on, it'd be easy to miss Aphelion. It's a comparatively small and quiet adventure game, one focused more on storytelling than gameplay. But that also makes it a perfect complement to all of the current blockbusters, offering something much more int …

If you mention the word bus, you might think of public transportation or, more likely for us, a way to connect things together. But in the satellite world, the bus is the part of a vehicle that supports the payload but isn’t itself the payload. Typically, that means the electric power system, propulsion, radios, and thermal control, among other systems. If you are designing a CubeSat, you will want to read A Guide to CubeSat Mission and Bus Design by [Frances Zhu].

L’appel de l’armée justifie la poursuite de ses bombardements par « la violation de l’accord de cessez-le-feu par le Hezbollah ». Au moins 40 personnes, en grande partie des civils, ont été tuées depuis le début du cessez-le-feu, le 17 avril, selon le ministère de la santé libanais.

In 2021, a group of independent movie companies, including the makers of The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, London Has Fallen, and Rambo V, sued RCN Telecom Services at a New Jersey federal court.
The filmmakers alleged that RCN failed to disconnect repeat infringers on its network, making the ISP liable for its subscribers’ copyright infringement.
The lawsuit was one of several filed by the same group of filmmakers against U.S. Internet providers, including Grande Communications, Frontier Communications, and Verizon. These all alleged that the ISPs failed to terminate accounts of repeat infringers, which made the providers secondarily liable for these pirating subscribers.

In a parody aired days before the White House Correspondents' Dinner, Kimmel called Melania an "expectant widow".

Avec la Xbox 360, Microsoft avait fait un choix surprenant pour les manettes : il existe des manettes Xbox 360 filaires (en USB) et des manettes sans fil, avec un protocole propriétaire (et une troisième variante, plus rare, avec une croix directionnelle améliorée). Microsoft avait bien sorti un câble USB pour la manette sans fil (le kit Play & Charge), mais assez bizarrement, il ne passe pas la manette en filaire. Mais a une petite option cachée tout de même. Le câble du kit Play & Charge est trompeur et assez particulier, en réalité. Il était livré avec une batterie à insérer dans la manette (à la place des piles AA employée en standard) et le câble ne sert (presque) qu’à recharger la...

USB wasn’t even a gleam in an engineer’s eye when the Sega Master System hit the market in 1985. Today, we’re up to USB 4 or something, and the USB C connector is becoming a defacto standard for just about everything except desktop computers. [Retrostalgia] is embracing this by mating the control pad from Sega’s first international console with the connector of today.
Naturally, the Sega Master System did not use the Universal Serial Bus to talk to its controllers, so some conversion was in order. That’s achieved with the use of a RP2040 microcontroller, which reads the D-pad and action buttons via its GPIO pins. It then acts as a HID device when plugged into a computer or other USB host, showing up...

On Monday, the courtroom battle between Elon Musk and Sam Altman over alleged broken promises at OpenAI started, as usual, with jury selection. The only tricky part? A lot of the prospective jurors already have an opinion about Elon Musk, and it's not a good one.
The Verge reporter Elizabeth Lopatto, who was there at the courthouse, quoted statements from some of the juror questionnaires: "Elon Musk is a greedy, racist, homophobic piece of garbage."
"Elon Musk is a world-class jerk."
"I very much dislike Tesla. As a woman of color, I am very aware of the damaging statements and actions Elon Musk has enacted and been a part of." M …

Solid state batteries, we are told, are the new hot battery technology that will replace lithium-ion batteries. Soon. Not that we haven’t heard that before. One reason it isn’t dominating the market today is that it’s prone to short circuits during charging. [Dr. Yuwei Zhang and others have published a paper detailing why the shorts happen, which could lead to strategies to improve the technology.
Solid state batteries employ a solid electrolyte and a lithium anode. It is known that, sometimes, lithium metal from the anode forms dendrites that penetrate the ceramic electrolyte and cause it to crack. This is somewhat of a mystery as the lithium is a soft metal (to quote [Zhang], “like a gummy...

Ultrasonic levitation is by now a familiar trick: one or more ultrasonic transducers create a standing wave, and small objects can be held in the nodes of this standing wave. With a sufficiently large array of transducers, it’s even possible to control the movement of the object. This isn’t the only form of ultrasonic levitation, however, as [Steve Mould] demonstrated with his ultrasonic air hockey table.
This less familiar form of levitation was discovered by [Bob Collins] while working on torpedo guidance systems: when he tried to place a glass lens on an ultrasonic transducer it immediately slid off. He found during further experimentation that an ultrasonic transducer would levitate over any...

Dwell’s visual media producer hit the ground running in Milan with eleven appointments and eight hours to complete them. These were the standouts.This story is part of Fair Take, our reporting on global design events that looks up close at the newest ideas in fixtures, furnishings, and more. If you want to really see Milan Design Week, you need a pretty rigid schedule—something I learned last year. Every April, the streets bloom with exhibitions by brands wanting to get in on the action that the main attraction, Salone del Mobile, brings to the city. This year, I did the math and figured I could hit eleven different projects within six and a half hours, as long as I scheduled each appointment 35 minutes...

One of the most popular Linux distributions is about to get an influx of AI features. As reported by Phoronix, Jon Seager, VP of engineering at Ubuntu developer Canonical, shared a blog post on Monday detailing plans to add AI features to the Linux distro over the next year. As the post states, the AI features "will come in two forms: first as a means of enhancing existing OS functionality with AI models in the background, and latterly in the form of 'AI native' features and workflows for those who want them." These features will range from accessibility tools like improved speech-to-text and text-to-speech to agentic AI features for tasks …

Springs are great, but making them out of plastic tends to come with some downsides, for fairly obvious reasons. Creating a compliant mechanism that can be 3D printed and yet which doesn’t permanently deform or wear out after a few uses is therefore a bit of a struggle. The compliant toggle mechanism that [neotoy] designed is said to have addressed those issues, with the model available on Printables for anyone to give a shake.
The model in question is a toggle, which is the commonly seen plastic or metal device that clamps down on e.g. rope or cord and requires you to push on it to have it release said clamping force. Normally these use a metal spring inside, but this version is fully 3D printable and thus...

I’ve never been to Comic Con, but I have to imagine attending it feels something like the experience of going to Salone del Mobile—if you multiplied the number of attendees by a few, and replaced the life-size Pikachus with invaluable works (and Aperol spritz stands).

The text is by Paul Firmin, and the photos are by Sarah Victoria Bates. From Workshop to Home When Shai Akram and Andrew Haythornthwaite first stepped inside their Stoke Newington property, it was far from the haven it would become.

“Japan — Fifteen years ago, this mountainous region on Japan’s northeast coast suffered one of the world’s worst nuclear power accidents. Abandoned homes, offices and shops still dot the landscape — remnants of the evacuation after an earthquake and tsunami damaged the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant and released radiation. In the accident’s aftermath, nuclear power’s future seemed bleak, with Japan shutting off all its reactors as public opinion soured against the technology. But the country is now rapidly moving to restart nuclear power plants, as artificial intelligence increases electricity demand and foreign wars throttle natural gas supply. Japan relies on natural gas for 30 percent...
