Mardi 14 avril, le tribunal de San Isidro, dans la banlieue chic de Buenos Aires, entame un second procès qui devra déterminer les responsabilités de l’équipe médicale de Diego Maradona dans la mort de l’idole du football mondial, en 2020. Le précédent avait été annulé en 2025 à la suite de la récusation d’une juge, provoquant un immense scandale en Argentine.

Still proud, still American, still gold. | Image: Trump Mobile Trump Mobile has overhauled its website, introducing a new logo, new design language, and a new version of the T1 Phone. The redesigned phone is the same one that two company executives showed me over a video call two months ago, seemingly now confirmed to be the final design - but there's still no word on when it will arrive.
The phone is still gold, of course, with an American flag design on the rear, alongside a "Trump Mobile" wordmark. I was shown a similar design but with an enormous "T1" logo across the whole of the rear, but I was told that would be removed, and it's nowhere to be seen on the current design. There's a triple rear cam...

Des chercheurs ont pointé une transformation majeure de la France qui est passée un peu inaperçue, celui d’une transformation profonde de la répartition territoriale de la prospérité. Les évolutions économiques, à savoir la désindustrialisation et la montée en puissance du tertiaire, ont fait que l’activité économique productrice de richesses s’est concentrée sur les métropoles.

Alors que les témoignages de femmes capturées par le mouvement djihadiste Boko Haram sont très rares, trois d’entre elles se sont confiées au journal nigérian “The Republic”. Elles ont livré des récits glaçants de leurs kidnappings et de leurs années de captivité et exprimé leurs difficultés à vivre l’après, en raison des violences sexuelles subies et de la stigmatisation qui pèse sur elles et leurs enfants.

Back in 2017, Hackaday featured an audio reactive LED strip project from [Scott Lawson], that has over the years become an extremely popular choice for the party animals among us. We’re fascinated to read his retrospective analysis of the project, in which he looks at how it works in detail and explains that why for all its success, he’s still not satisfied with it.
Sound-to-light systems have been a staple of electronics for many decades, and have progressed from simple volume-based flashers and sequencers to complex DSP-driven affairs like his project. It’s particularly interesting to be reminded that the problem faced by the designer of such a system involves interfacing with human perception rather...

The 24 Hours of Le Mans races is an extremely prestigious endurance motorsport event which attracts the best cars and drivers from around the world. It’s one of the longest-running races too, taking place once a year since 1923 (with a few obvious understandable gaps). But, like most motorsports, it’s financially out of reach for most people. One of the more popular attempts to bring racing to the masses has been the 24 Hours of Lemons races, which have price limits on vehicles to keep the barrier to entry low, and an EV truck recently entered one of these races with some interesting results.
The group behind this vehicle is called Team Arcblast, who retrofitted an old Datsun pickup truck to the extreme to...

Long ago, in the aftermath of the UNIX wars, three kernels emerged from the rubble: BSD, Linux, and Hurd. BSD, being UNIX, was held back by legal wrangling in the aftermath of the wars, and that allowed Linux to pull ahead to a pole position it still enjoys to this day. BSD has its following, of course, but Hurd? GNU Hurd seemed destined to languish… until April 1st, 2026, when the Gentoo Linux distribution was ported to the Free Software Foundation’s kernel.
It turns out, they weren’t actually joking. The joke part was that they were moving fully to the Hurd kernel, away from Linux– you can absolutely still run Gentoo with the Linux kernel, and make no mistake, that’s still the default and...

According to prosecutors, at the HQ, "Moreno-Gama attempted to break the glass doors of the building with a chair and stated that he had come to burn down the location and kill anyone inside."
His charges include "attempted damage and destruction of property by means of explosives and possession of an unregistered firearm," according to the Departmen …

All the cool new 3D printers have tool-changing heads. Instead of multiplexing filament through one hot end, you simply park one hot end and pick up another. Or pick up a different tool, depending on what you need. There are many advantages to a system like that, but one disadvantage: cost. [Ultimate Tool Changer] has been working on a design for what he calls a simple, cheap changer, and it appears to be working well, as you can see in the video below.
This is one of those things that seems easy until you try to do it. He talks about a lot of the failures and dead ends along the way. We worry that the tolerances are tight enough that wear over time might affect some of the key components, but how long that...

A year ago, Mercedes-Benz did the prudent thing and paused its EQ lineup of electric vehicles in the US. With customer demand drying up for luxury EVs, and federal incentives getting axed by vengeful Republicans, Mercedes put its first-generation EVs on ice.
But then, in January, Mercedes quietly reintroduced the EQS brand in the US, with The Drive declaring that the "blobs are back" - a reference to the sedan's much-maligned jelly-bean shape that prioritized aerodynamics over a more traditional profile. But we didn't yet realize how back the EQS truly was.
Today, Mercedes is reintroducing its electric sedan to a wary, cash-strapped market …

It was his most significant solo performance in years. But Bieber spent some of his time on stage the way many of us do on Saturday nights: on YouTube. For some of the set, Bieber played parts of his older songs right off YouTube from a Mac laptop. Behind him, on the stage's screen, you could see YouTube's website as he searched for songs in real time and then put the videos on full-screen while he sang along on stage.

Microsoft just raised the prices across its line of Surface devices amid the global RAM shortage. Now, the 13-inch Surface Pro 11 and the 13.8-inch Surface Laptop 7 cost $500 more than their original starting price, going from $999 to $1,499, as reported earlier by Windows Central.
Last year, Microsoft stopped selling the $999 versions of the Surface Pro 11 and the 13.8-inch Surface Laptop 7 in favor of the $1,199 models with more storage. At the time, it seemed like Microsoft was trying to make room for the cheaper 12-inch Surface Pro and 13-inch Surface Laptop that launched last May. However, these newer devices aren't safe from the pric …

“When Javier Milei became president of Argentina in December 2023, one his first measures as part of a package of wide-ranging deregulations was to open up the economy to satellite internet. (I wrote about that and his broader deregulatory push here.) At a meeting I attended last month with a small group of economists, Argentina’s Minister of Deregulation, Federico Sturzenegger, presented the graph above. It shows how satellite internet use exploded once the government lifted its ban, which had, until then, benefited a politically powerful local internet provider.” From Cato Institute.

Of Montreal “When”
I say this with the greatest admiration and respect: Kevin Barnes is a messy bitch who lives for drama. Following his career over the long term means you get the highs and lows of his love life as it progresses through stages happiness and despair. He’s exceptionally good at capturing the best and worst feelings in vivid detail, to the extent that the darker records can be very difficult to listen to. The new Of Montreal record finds Barnes in a fairly manic moment – fresh out of a long-term relationship, newly relocated to Brooklyn, and searching for new connections. I initially assumed “When” was about the collapsed relationship because Barnes was singing “I just wanna fuck...

While visiting Oaxaca, Mexico, the couple fell for a hillside lot with sweeping desert views and began to imagine a new way of living.

Le groupe de hackers ShinyHunters affirme avoir piraté Rockstar Games. Ils menacent de publier tous les documents confidentiels volés sur le dark web si le studio ne leur verse pas de rançon. Le message des hackers est clair : "Pay or leak."
Les pirates ne sont pas entrés chez Rockstar par la grande porte. Ils sont passés par Anodot, un outil que le studio utilise pour analyser ses factures cloud. Une brèche chez Anodot début avril leur a donné des identifiants qui ouvraient aussi les bases Snowflake de Rockstar, là où dormaient une bonne partie des documents internes.
