Husamettin Dogan, seul accusé du procès Pelicot à avoir fait appel, a été condamné le 9 octobre à dix ans de réclusion, soit un an de plus qu’en première instance. La cour a jugé qu’il « avait pleinement conscience que [Gisèle Pelicot] n’était pas consentant[e] » lorsqu’il l’a violé.

Samsung is finally about to reveal more details about its Project Moohan mixed reality headset. The company just announced a new “Worlds Wide Open” Galaxy event that will take place on October 21st at 10PM ET, where it’s promising to reveal details about the device. The headset will run on Android XR, a new mixed reality platform developed by Samsung, Google, and Qualcomm, and Samsung says that it is “designed to scale across form factors, bringing AI to the center of immersive, everyday experiences.” My colleague Victoria Song initially got to try the headset and Android XR in late 2024, and nearly a year later, it seems Samsung is ready for the headset’s full launch. “Project Moohan is the...

The 'Avatar' star would love to see a light shined on performance-capture acting.

Over on his YouTube channel the inimitable [Ben Eater] takes a look at an electronic altimeter which replaces an old mechanical altimeter in an airplane.
The old altimeter was entirely mechanical, except for a pair of wires which can power a backlight. Both the old and new altimeters have a dial on the front for calibrating the meter. The electronic altimeter has a connector on the back for integrating with the rest of the airplane. [Ben] notes that this particular electronic altimeter is only a backup in the airplane it is installed in, it’s there for a “second opinion” or in case of emergency. The back of the electronic altimeter has a 26-pin connector. The documentation — the User Guide for MD23-215...

Netflix is no longer just a home for TV shows, movies, documentaries, and live WWE matches — soon, you’ll be able to stream video podcasts, too. The streaming giant announced on Tuesday that it’s partnering with Spotify’s podcast studio and The Ringer to offer 16 series on its platform, including The Bill Simmons Podcast, Conspiracy Theories, as well as The Ringer’s shows on the NFL, NBA, Fantasy Football, and F1. The podcasts will appear on Netflix in the US starting in 2026 before expanding to other countries. As part of the deal, the shows won’t appear “in their entirety” on YouTube, according to a report from The New York Times. Not only is YouTube Netflix’s biggest rival, it also tops...

Google might have yet another Pixel with a battery problem, and this time, affecting the brand new Pixel 10 Pro Fold. In a video published today, YouTuber JerryRigEverything, aka Zack Nelson, subjected the foldable to his usual durability tests, but as he’s filming his bend test — after having already broken the phone open — the battery expands, appears to overheat, emits enough smoke to set off a nearby fire alarm, and ultimately ends up as a charred wreckage on his testing table. To be fair, Nelson puts an extraordinary amount of stress on the phone. He originally breaks open the phone by bending it backwards while the phone is fully unfolded, and the battery doesn’t swell up until he exerts a lot of...

In honor of the legendary poster artist's passing, we take a look back at the very best works of a master.

YouTube is updating the look of the video player to be “cleaner and more immersive” beginning this week. “This includes updated controls and new icons to make the viewing experience more visually satisfying while obscuring less content,” YouTube says. It started testing changes to the player earlier this year. A screenshot from YouTube shows how the new look includes rounded on-screen buttons with a little bit of translucency, though the effect isn’t nearly as intense as Apple’s Liquid Glass. YouTube says the new player will be available on mobile, web, and TV devices.  The company is introducing a bunch of other updates, too. YouTube says the double-tap to skip feature will be “modern and less...

Meta has removed a Facebook page dedicated to tracking Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) action in Chicago after the Justice Department got involved.  Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote on X Tuesday that Facebook had taken down an unnamed “large group page that was being used to dox and target” ICE agents after outreach from the DOJ. Meta spokesperson Andy Stone confirmed the group, which he did not identify, “was removed for violating our policies against coordinated harm.” Its removal follows Apple and Google blocking ICE-tracking apps, also following government demands. The DOJ declined to comment beyond Bondi’s post, and ICE did not immediately respond to a request for comment about...

A presentation that has been shared with the Trump administration references Tesla, Ikea, TSMC, and more in its plan to rebuild Gaza. Some of these companies say they had no idea they were mentioned.

Tubes! Not only is the internet a series of them, many projects in the physical world are, too. If you’re building anything from a bicycle to a race cart to and aeroplane, you might find yourself notching and welding metal tubes together. That notching part can be a real time-suck. [Jornt] from HOMEMADE MADNESS (it’s so mad you have to shout the channel name, apparently) thought so when he came up with this 3-axis CNC tube notcher.
If you haven’t worked with chrome-molly or other metal tubing, you may be forgiven for wondering what the big deal is, but it’s pretty simple: to get a solid weld, you need the tubes to meet. Round tubes don’t really want to do that, as a general rule. Imagine the simple...

The military promises elections within two years, but President Rajoelina insists he is still in charge.

Summary: When President Nixon imposed wage and price controls in 1971, it created chaos. Gas shortages, rationing, and angry customers became daily realities, teaching one young gas station attendant how disastrous top-down economic planning can be. A decade later, when markets were finally freed, supply returned and abundance followed. The lesson endures: politicians create scarcity, but entrepreneurs and free markets create plenty. Shortly after I turned 15, President Richard M. Nixon managed to make my life miserable. On Sunday August 15, 1971, against the advice of his economic counselors, and in total repudiation of his party’s campaign platform, he announced on national TV that he was suspending the...

Analyses of its emissions using NASA’s Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory indicate that the interstellar comet probably has a very different structure than comets in the solar system.

Microsoft has stopped supporting the operating system. If you’re still running Windows 10, here are your options.

When we think of a motor controller it’s usual to imagine power electronics, and a consequent dent in the wallet when it’s time to order the parts. But that doesn’t always have to be the case, as it turns out that there are many ways to control a motor. [Bram] did it with a surprising part, a 74ACT139 dual 4-line demultiplexer.
A motor controller is little more than a set of switches between the supply rails and the motor terminals, and thus how it performs depends on a few factors such as how fast it can be switched, how much current it can pass, and how susceptible it is to any back EMF or other electrical junk produced by the motor.
In this particular application the motor was a tiny component in a...

I modified a printer a few years ago to handle multiple filaments, but I will admit it was more or less a stunt. It worked, but it felt like you had to draw mystic symbols on the floor of the lab and dance around the printer, chanting incantations for it to go right. But I recently broke down and bought a color printer. No, probably not the one you think, but one that is pretty similar to the other color machines out there.
Of course, it is easy to grab ready-made models in various colors. It is also easy enough to go into a slicer and “paint” colors, but that’s not always desirable. In particular, I like to design in OpenSCAD, and adding a manual intervention step into an otherwise automatic compile...

In Berkeley, Studio AHEAD worked with wood sculptor Ido Yoshimoto to create a custom mantel and doorframe that are as artful as they are functional.Welcome to How They Pulled It Off, where we take a close look at one particularly challenging aspect of a home design and get the nitty-gritty details about how it became a reality. It was a request for a custom staircase runner that eventually led to the two wooden sculptures in a 1909 carpenter-style house in Berkeley: one, a threshold portal, and the other forming a reimagined fireplace mantel. The result is as singular as the request. Design firm Studio AHEAD and wood sculptor Ido Yoshimoto created a fireplace mantel and a threshold for a couple’s Berkeley...

Comédie grinçante, absurde, et un brin inquiétante, “The Chair Company” mélange les styles pour un résultat étonnant.

La presse américaine a adoré la série, diffusée sur HBO Max à partir de ce 13 octobre.

“If all goes as planned, Reliable Robotics eventually won’t need any pilots on board its planes. It is among startups vying to revolutionize air travel by doing away with the need for human pilots on cargo, military and maybe even passenger aircraft. Autonomous flight is being tested at companies from giant aircraft makers to small startups. For now, cargo and military flights are the focus. Reliable recently signed a $17 million contract with the U.S. Air Force that involves testing autonomous cargo flights. Flying-taxi maker Joby Aviation also recently tested its own pilotless Cessna for the Air Force over the Pacific Ocean. Boeing and Airbus, the world’s leading makers of large commercial jets, have...

“On September 18, 2025, Ethiopia officially launched the malaria vaccine in Turmi, South Omo Zone. The vaccine will be delivered alongside insecticide-treated nets to protect children in 58 high-burden districts. This is the first rollout of its kind — previous malaria vaccine rollouts in other countries have been integrated into existing vaccine programmes. The Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will roll out 186,000 doses, as well as over 12 million mosquito nets, creating an effective two-pronged approach. Ethiopia is now the 23rd country in Africa to introduce malaria vaccination.” From Malaria Consortium.

First person view (FPV) quadcopter drones have become increasingly more capable over the years, as well as much smaller. The popular 65 mm format, as measured from hub to hub, is often considered to be about the smallest you can make an FPV drone without making serious compromises. Which is exactly why [Hoarder Sam] decided to make a smaller version that can fit inside a Pringles can, based on the electronics used in the popular Air65 quadcopter from BetaFPV.

The basic concept for this design is actually based on an older compact FPV drone design called the ‘bone drone’, so called for having two overlapping propellers on...

Il y a des bugs qu’on corrige en urgence. Et puis il y a GPU.zip, cette faille que TOUS les fabricants de GPU connaissent depuis mars 2023 et que personne n’a jamais voulu fixer.

Cette année, avec Nano Banana, ChatGPT, Sora, Seedream et j’en passe, on est quand même passé de “Je cherche une image sur le net” à “Tiens, et si je demandais à Google (ou un autre) de créer l’image que je cherche…”. Comme ça, on ne perd plus de temps à en regarder plein pour trouver la meilleure, et surtout on ne se pose plus la question de est-ce que c’est une image sous copyright ? Ou une image mise en ligne sur un site Creative Commons dont la licence libre sera retirée dans quelques années par un cabinet d’avocat véreux spécialisé dans le copyright trolling…
et qui viendra ensuite vous réclamer du pognon

La commande sudo que tous les linuxiens connaissent a plus de 40 ans, tout autant d’années d’audits de sécurité, des millions de lignes de code scrutées par des milliers de développeurs au fil des ans et surtout des dizaines de CVE critiques corrigées.
Et pourtant on est jamais à l’abri d’une mauvaise surprise ! En effet, une fonctionnalité ajoutée récemment pour “améliorer” la sécurité a crée un trou béant. Baptisée CVE-2025-32463, cette une faille critique présente dans sudo est même déjà exploitée par des cybercriminels.
Alors qu’est ce qui se passe exactement ? Hé bien en 2023, les développeurs de sudo ajoutent une amélioration dans la version 1.9.14. L’option...

Salut à tous chers amis geeks distraits ! Aujourd’hui, on va parler d’un objet qui a résolu un de mes plus gros problèmes du quotidien : la perte de mes lunettes. Je n’en porte que depuis quelques mois, et vu le prix que j’y ai mis, et la qualité de déplacements que je fais chaque semaines, les perdre était une angoisse constante. Mais genre vraiment. Les semaines ont passé, et ce problème s’est amplifié. J’ai maintenant trois paires de lunettes essentielles : mes solaires (parce que le soleil, c’est mal), mes progressives (parce que l’âge, c’est mal aussi) et mes lunettes mi-distance le...
