The Francis! Francis! X1 espresso machine in its assembled state. (Credit: Samuel Leeuwenburg)
Recently, [Samuel Leeuwenburg] got his paws on a Francis! Francis! X1 (yes, that’s the name) espresso machine. This is the espresso machine that is mostly famous for having been in a lot of big TV shows in the 1990s. In the early 2000s, the X1 even became a pretty good espresso machine after the manufacturer did some more tinkering with it, including changing the boiler material, upgrading the pump, etc.
In the case of the second-hand, but rarely used, machine that [Samuel] got, the machine still looked pretty good, but its performance was pretty abysmal. After popping the machine open the boiler turned out to be...

Le premier ministre israélien, Benyamin Nétanyahou, a affirmé que les attaques menées depuis vendredi matin, et qui ont continué samedi, avaient porté un « coup réel au programme » nucléaire iranien. « La poursuite de l’agression sioniste entraînera une riposte plus forte et plus virulente de la part des forces armées iraniennes », a déclaré de son côté le président iranien, Massoud Pezeshkian.

Right after a heart attack, the risk of having another one is very high. This is the most dangerous time for your heart. Blood vessels are still fragile and more likely to form dangerous clots. That’s why fast and effective treatment is so important. Doctors often use powerful medications right away to lower cholesterol. But these medications don’t always do enough. When that happens, many patients need more than one drug to reach safe levels of “bad” cholesterol, known as LDL-C. Medical experts have known for years that lowering LDL-C helps prevent future heart problems. Despite this, many treatment guidelines still recommend starting with a single drug, a statin, and only adding another drug if it...

[Please note that this audio interview contains spoilers for Season 3 of The White Lotus.] Actor Jason Isaacs loves a character with a secret. He’s been portraying these types for decades. Think: villain Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter films, a grieving detective unsure of what is real in the series Awake, and iconic actor Cary Grant in the British series Archie. His latest role is tormented husband and father Tim Ratliff in season three of the HBO’s The White Lotus. He also recently appeared in the film Words of War, as the conflicted husband of Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya. Isaacs tells The Treatment why he’s never wanted to play “the guy with the gun,” what was most challenging about...

Emmy-nominated actor and writer Jason Segel has proved his comedy bonafides many times over. He was in the ensemble of the long-running sitcom How I Met Your Mother, and became a staple of the “R-rated comedy” film boom in the 2000s and 2010s. To the latter point, you’ll find him in such classics as The 40 Year Virgin, I Love You, Man, and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. He has also proven adept at drama including in The End of the Tour and the series Dispatches From Elsewhere. His Apple TV+ series Shrinking allows him to tap into both sides, with a multi-layered performance as a grieving therapist who forms unconventional relationships with his patients. Season 2 of the series concluded late in 2024 and...

Halina Reijn’s creative journey began on stage as an actress, honing her skills at the prestigious Maastricht Academy of Dramatic Arts in the Netherlands. Her breakout moment came in 1997 when she played Ophelia in a Hamlet stage production directed by Theu Boermans. Since then, she has carved out a career which spans across theater and film. She made a seamless transition to directing in 2019 with her debut feature Instinct, followed by the widely celebrated Bodies Bodies Bodies (2022). Her latest project is last year’s Babygirl — which she wrote and directed. It stars Nicole Kidman as a woman who risks her tranquil home life by engaging in a torrid affair with a younger colleague.

Less than a month after making their debut, the WH-1000XM6 are on sale at Amazon in black, blue, and platinum with a $30 gift card for $448. It’s not a straight cash discount, sure, but if you were already debating picking up Sony’s latest pair of noise-canceling headphones, it makes the $50 price hike over the last-gen XM5 easier to stomach. If you were to ignore the steep price hike, the new XM6 are a welcome improvement over the XM5 in every way. They’re outfitted with Sony’s latest noise-cancellation chip, which allows them to do a better job at drowning out the ambient noise you might encounter on the street, at your local coffee shop, or on your next cross-country flight.

Il s’agit du quatrième échange en une semaine, dans le cadre des accords conclus à Istanbul au début du mois de juin. L’Ukraine a aussi récupéré 1 200 corps de citoyens ukrainiens, dont des militaires, remis par la Russie.

Le tueur est toujours en fuite. Donald Trump a condamné une « violence horrible » après le drame, qui a eu lieu à quelques heures du défilé militaire organisé pour célébrer le 250ᵉ anniversaire de l’armée. Dans tout le pays, une journée de mobilisation baptisée « No Kings » est organisée pour protester contre l’« autoritarisme ».

Au plus fort de la guerre commerciale sino-américaine, une partie des internautes chinois s’est emparée de cet épisode pour diffuser en ligne des visuels, des messages, des mèmes qui ridiculisent Donald Trump ou célèbrent le nationalisme. Mais, diplomatie oblige, même en pareil cas, la censure veille.

The intersection between “woodworkers” and “programmers” is not a densely populated part of the Venn diagram, but [Michael Schiebler] is there with his Kerf Bend Wizard to help us make wood twist and bend like magic.
Kerf bending is a fine technique we have covered before: by cutting away material on the inside face of a piece of wood, you create an area weak enough to allow for bending. The question becomes: how much wood do I remove? And where? That’s where Kerf Bend Wizard comes to the rescue.

One of the biggest surprises of the Nintendo Switch 2's reveal was its proposed accessibility. For years, Nintendo has been known for accidentally stumbling on accessibility solutions while stubbornly refusing to engage with the broader subject. Yet, in the Switch 2, there appeared a more holistic approach to accessibility for which disabled players have been crying out. This was supported by a webpage dedicated to the Switch 2's hardware accessibility. However, specifics were thin and no further information emerged ahead of the Switch 2's debut. Now, having spent the last week with the Switch 2, I've found that this limited information hid, aside from a few missteps, an impressive suite of system-level...

Un pirate informatique annonce avoir piraté la société AYOMI. Le malveillant a écrit à un certain nombre de clients... le week-end !...

After a Virginia jury ordered internet provider Cox to pay $1 billion in damages for failing to take appropriate actions against pirating subscribers, shockwaves rippled through the ISP industry.
The verdict, in favor of major record labels including Sony and Universal, was a catalyst for many other ‘repeat infringer’ lawsuits. This resulted in yet more multi-million dollar claims and awards, with more still in the pipeline today. Meanwhile, Cox did all it could to fight the verdict. This resulted in some small wins, including a recent ruling that the billion-dollar damages calculation needs a re-evaluation. However, the liability ruling stands. In a final attempt to find the law on its side, Cox...

The first Switch was such a hit that Nintendo decided not to mess with a good thing. Instead of releasing a successor that feels like a generational leap or a pivot in a new direction, it's following up the hugely successful original with the Switch 2 - a welcome upgrade that largely sticks to the formula. It looks about the same, works about the same, and plays most of the same games. It's the Switch, just better.
Nintendo's bet is that it doesn't have to wow people all over again, and so it made a sequel that's only as good as it needs to be. After spending a week with the new console, I've realized that good enough is exactly what the Switch needed.

How ancient builders raised the mighty pyramids still captures the curiosity of historians and scientists. Despite decades of digging, high-tech scanning, and countless theories, the puzzle remains: how did a society without modern tools manage to move and stack stones the size of small cars? A recent find near the Great Pyramid could bring researchers a step closer to an answer. A team of archaeologists began exploring the terrain around the monument, reviving an old idea with fresh tools and sharper questions. Their aim? To shed light on one of humanity’s boldest construction feats. The scale of the job defies belief. The Great Pyramid alone contains more than 2.3 million blocks of limestone and granite,...

The Switch 2 Pro controller’s battery is technically removable, if you can get to it. (Credit: VK’s Channel, YouTube)
For those of us who have worked on SNES and GameCube controllers, we know that these are pretty simple to get into and maintain. However, in the trend of making modern game controllers more complex and less maintainable, Nintendo’s new Switch 2 Pro controller is giving modern Xbox and PlayStation controllers a run for their money in terms of repair complexity. As shown in a teardown by [VK] on YouTube (starting at nine minutes in), the first step is a disappointing removal of the glued-on front plate. After that you are dealing with thin plastic, the typical flimsy ribbon cables and a lot...

Most of us spend our lives within reach of a device that provides a clock, stopwatch, and a timer – you’re almost certainly reading this article on such a device – but there are fewer options if you want a screen-free clock.

There is one clock hand, and while it does indicate the passage of time in some situations, its main function is as a dial to...

The city of London is no stranger to tall constructions today, but long before the first skyscrapers would loom above its streets, Watkin’s Tower was supposed to be the tallest structure in not only London but also the entirety of the UK. Inspired by France’s recently opened Eiffel tower, railway entrepreneur and Member of Parliament [Sir Edward Watkin] wanted to erect a structure that would rival the Eiffel tower, as part of a new attraction park to be constructed near the Middlesex hamlet of Wembley.
