Doit-on vraiment interpeller les décideurs ? les rédacteurs de encyclopédie n’ont pas attendu l’accord du roi pour se mettre au travail.

In October, the makers of League of Legends announced an ambitious plan to roll out new games in entirely different genres. A fighting game, a card game, a possible action-RPG, and more—Riot Games is up to 10 announced "future" games at this point. That's a lot for a company whose second legitimate game didn't launch until last year.
Most of these new games are set in the League of Legends universe, one that we're admittedly not bullish on at Ars Technica. That's one reason why the biggest exception to the newly rising LoL-iverse caught our eye: Valorant.
Previously known as "Project A," this PC-exclusive game was first teased as a "character-based tactical shooter." That description, combined with brief footage, had us asking: was Riot seriously going to slam Counter-Strike and Overwatch together in such shameless fashion? The answer is a loud and clear "yes." And after diving into the new game's first public test this week, we've come away utterly impressed with this chocolate-and-peanut-butter combination. Shameless as it is, this early version of Valorant is already as thoughtful and compelling an entry in the online-shooter fray as we've seen in years.

The Trump administration will pay General Motors $489 million to manufacture 30,000 ventilators, the Department of Health and Human Services announced on Wednesday.
GM, of course, is a car company, not a supplier of medical equipment. Rather than designing a ventilator from scratch, GM will be using a design borrowed from Ventec Life Systems. GM and Ventec announced a partnership to work on ventilators more than two weeks ago.
"GM is proud to deploy its purchasing and manufacturing capability alongside the respiratory care expertise of Ventec," GM said in a press statement.

Pour ma part, la voie est simple:
1. Est-ce que cela augmente nos intelligences, ou au contraire cela les réduit?
2. Est-ce que cela va servir la bientraitance envers moi-même, les autres, le reste (La Terre)?
3. Est-ce que cela va augmenter nos libertés, ou les réduire?
Alors le choix est devenu très facile, car cela fabrique ma route, pas après pas. Je ne sais pas où je vais, mais je sais où je ne souhaite pas aller.
Mais cela nécessite de rester lucide, et c’est notre premier grand chantier, vis à vis de notre propre cerveau, effectivement: http://zetetique.quicklearn.ch
Merci !
Ce billet est majeur. Vraiment.
Il y a de vraies pépites la dedans.
Démystifier le numérique c’est d’utilité publique. Dans les milieu dissidents les gens attende La Grande Appli qui permettra enfin à la révolution d’émerger.
Je me laisse moi même régulièrement bercer de ce genre d’illusions.

Plastics have a lot of properties that have made them fixtures of modern societies. They can be molded into any shape we'd like, they're tough yet flexible, and they come in enough variations that we can tune the chemistry to suit different needs. The problem is that they're tough enough that they don't break down on their own, and incinerating them is relatively inefficient. As a result, they've collected in our environment as both bulk plastics and the seemingly omnipresent microplastic waste.
For natural materials, breaking down isn't an issue, as microbes have evolved ways of digesting them to obtain energy or useful chemicals. But many plastics have only been around for decades, and we're just now seeing organisms that have evolved enzymes to digest them. Figuring they could do one better, researchers in France have engineered an enzyme that can efficiently break down one of the most common forms of plastic. The end result of this reaction is a raw material that can be reused directly to make new plastic bottles.
The plastic in question is polyethylene terephthalate, or PET. PET has a variety of uses, including as thin films with very high tensile strength (marketed as mylar). But its most notable use is in plastic drink bottles, which are a major component of environmental plastic waste. PET was first developed in the 1940s, and the first living organism that can break down and use the carbon in PET was described in 2016—found in sediment near a plastic recycling facility, naturally.

Coal miners in Serbia recently dug up an unexpected surprise: three probable Roman-era ships, buried in the mud of an ancient riverbed for at least 1,300 years. The largest is a flat-bottomed river vessel 15 meters (49 feet) long, which seems to have been built with Roman techniques. Two smaller boats, each carved out from a single tree trunk, match ancient descriptions of dugout boats used by Slavic groups to row across the Danube River and attack the Roman frontier.
The Kostolac surface mine lies near the ancient Roman city of Viminacium, once a provincial capital and the base for a squadron of Roman warships on the Danube River. When the Roman Empire ruled most of Southern Europe, the Danube or one of its larger branches flowed across the land now occupied by the mine. The three ships lay atop a 15-meter- (49-foot-) deep layer of gravel, buried under seven meters (23 feet) of silt and clay, which preserved them for centuries in remarkably good condition—or did until the miners' earthmoving equipment dug into the steep slope to excavate for the mine.
"The [largest] ship was seriously damaged by the mining equipment," archaeologist Miomir Korac, director of the Archaeological Institute and head of the Viminacium Science Project, told Ars in an email. "Approximately 35 percent to 40 percent of the ship was damaged. But the archaeological team collected all the parts, and we should be able to reconstruct it almost in full." With any luck, that reconstruction will help archaeologists understand when the three ships were built and how they came to rest in the riverbed.

The sharp growth in residential-broadband traffic seen during the pandemic is starting to level off, new data shows. While Internet speeds have slowed somewhat in many parts of the United States, it turns out that even rural-broadband networks are holding up pretty well.
Speeds have dropped in rural areas but are stabilizing, BroadbandNow reported today. Median download speeds in rural areas ranged from 16Mbps to 19.9Mbps in each of the first 11 weeks of 2020. Speeds then fell to 15.5Mbps in March 22 to 28, the lowest recorded all year. But rural speeds went back up to 16.2Mbps in the week of March 29 to April 4.
Median upload speeds in rural areas ranged from 5.5Mbps to 6.3Mbps in the first 11 weeks of 2020 but have been just 5.1Mbps the last two weeks, the same report found:

Second- and third-generation Apple TV streaming boxes will no longer be able to stream content from HBO Go and HBO Now after the end of April, according to a pair of HBO support documents. The documents were uncovered today by MacRumors.
The two streaming apps affected are HBO Go, the additive over-the-top (OTT) streaming service HBO provides to traditional cable subscribers, and HBO Now, the cable-free streaming platform for cordcutters. The support websites for both were each updated with identical support pages titled "Apple TV (2nd and 3rd gen): Changes to device support," saying:
In order to provide the best streaming experience, we need to make some changes to our supported devices list. Starting on April 30, 2020, HBO GO will no longer be available on the Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation).
The post goes on to provide instructions that readers can follow to identify which Apple TV model they have, then offers a series of bullet points listing ways to access HBO's content on those devices even though the apps will stop working.
