Marché mondial Q3 2025 des CPU x86 : AMD continue de grappiller du terrain sur Intel !

Nous vous parlions un peu plus tôt dans la semaine de l'excellente forme d'AMD sur le marché de la vente au détail de CPU desktop en France (et pas que), d'après le suivi des ventes d'Amazon France au mois d'octobre 2025. En conclusion de notre actualité, nous rappelions cependant que le marché "DIY...

Les tests hardware de la semaine - S46 2025

Alors qu’un voyage presse occupait une partie de la rédaction (comprendre, un seul membre !) cette semaine — plus de nouvelle à ce propos très prochainement ! —, le hardware n’est pas resté sage, loin s’en faut. En effet, le Ryzen 5 7500X3D s’est fait tripatouiller du côté de la ferme des CowCots, u...

A 'Peak Oil' Prediction Surprise From the International Energy Agency

15 novembre 2025 à 15:34
"The International Energy Agency's latest outlook signals that oil demand could keep growing through to the middle of the century," reports CNBC, "reflecting a sharp tonal shift from the world's energy watchdog and raising further questions about the future of fossil fuels." In its flagship World Energy Outlook, the Paris-based agency on Wednesday laid out a scenario in which demand for oil climbs to 113 million barrels per day by 2050, up 13% from 2024 levels. The IEA had previously estimated a peak in global fossil fuel demand before the end of this decade and said that, in order to reach net-zero emissions by 2050, there should be no new investments in coal, oil and gas projects... The IEA's end-of-decade peak oil forecast kick-started a long-running war of words with OPEC, an influential group of oil exporting countries, which accused the IEA of fearmongering and risking the destabilization of the global economy. The IEA's latest forecast of increasing oil demand was outlined in its "Current Policies Scenario" — one of a number of scenarios outlined by the IEA. This one assumes no new policies or regulations beyond those already in place. The CPS was dropped five years ago amid energy market turmoil during the coronavirus pandemic, and its reintroduction follows pressure from the Trump administration... Gregory Brew, an analyst at Eurasia Group's Energy, Climate and Resources team, said the IEA's retreat on peak oil demand signified "a major shift" from the group's position over the last five years. "The justifications offered for the shift include policy changes in the U.S., where slow EV penetration indicates robust oil [consumption], but is also tied to expected increases in petrochemical and aviation fuel in East and Southeast Asia," Brew told CNBC by email. "It's unlikely the agency is adjusting based on political pressure — though there has been some of that, with the Trump administration criticizing the group's supposed bias in favor of renewable energy — and the shift reflects a broader skepticism that oil demand is set to peak any time soon," he added... Alongside its CPS, the IEA also laid out projections under its so-called "Stated Policies Scenario" (STEPS), which reflects the prevailing direction of travel for the global energy system. In this assumption, the IEA said it expects oil demand to peak at 102 million barrels per day around 2030, before gradually declining. Global electric car sales are much stronger under this scenario compared to the CPS. The IEA said its multiple scenarios explore a range of consequences from various policy choices and should not be considered forecasts. Thanks to Slashdot reader magzteel for sharing the news.

Une affaire rondement menée
Flock : La planète bulle parée pour l’éclate

Nous n’y sommes pas encore, on a le temps de voir venir. Demain est un autre jour, ça pourrait être pire. Il n’y a pas mort d’homme, ah si quand même un peu? Bon. Faisons alors comme les « grands » de ce monde : rien. Faisons le dos rond et écoutons le bruit des billets pour se dorloter le moral, c’est bien la seule chanson qui vaille lorsqu’ils bruissent de plaisir à s’échanger pour garnir nos mains déjà pleines… N’en jetez surtout plus et gardez en sous le coude de superflu, Noël n’est même pas encore arrivé. Et pourtant pour certains, ça l’est toute l’année, étalée sur 30 ans avec anticrénelage des courbes financières, promis juré, ça va bien se passer. Profitez de ce weekend d’automne estival pour aller faire vos courses, dépêchez-vous ! Demain est un autre jour, il sera peut-être trop tard et ça pourrait être pire…

DDR5 Samsung : jusqu'à 60% de hausse officielle de prix sur les barrettes ?!

Dans le business de la DRAM (ainsi que de la NAND d'ailleurs), on distingue généralement deux choses. Il y a tout d'abord les "spot prices" qui sont un peu comme la bourse, des cours en temps réel donnant les tendances quotidiennes, puis les "contract prices" qui sont le juge de paix, les prix que d...

Abxylute M4 : une excellente idée pour jouer sur smartphone

15 novembre 2025 à 11:15

Le Abxylute M4 se positionne à l’arrière d’un smartphone placé en mode horizontal. Il déploie en dessous de la diagonale de son écran les éléments classiques d’une console de jeu mobile.

Abxylute M4

Avec le Abxylute M4 on retrouve en quelques secondes deux mini joysticks analogiques, une croix directionnelle et des boutons ABXY. Sous chaque index, deux paires de gâchettes sont également idéalement positionnées. Le dispositif va permettre de jouer confortablement en évitant de manipuler l’écran et donc de cacher ce qu’il s’y passe.

Une fois la partie terminée, il suffira de détacher l’accessoire qui se fixe magnétiquement à tout smartphone proposant une charge magnétique. Le dispositif propose en effet un anneau qui va se connecter à ce dispositif pour se fixer à l’appareil. Un usage simple, direct et sans fil puisque la petite manette embarque simplement un module de dialogue en Bluetooth 5.3. Autoalimenté par une batterie 300 mAh qui lui offrira 12 heures d’autonomie en jeu après chaque recharge. Cela veut dire que la manette pourra par ailleurs être employée avec d’autres appareils en la gardant en main : tablette posée sur une table, mais aussi PC portable par exemple. La liaison Bluetooth assurant désormais une connexion quasi universelle.

La manette Abxylute M4 mesure 7.5 cm de haut pour 7 cm de large et 1.5 cm d’épaisseur, elle pèse juste 56 g et se rechargera en USB Type-c bien entendu. Elle est proposée en plusieurs coloris : blanc, noir, orange et dans une livrée très Nintendo GameCube.

La marque Abxylute ne nous est pas étrangère et le produit proposé sur Kickstarter me laisse froid. L’idée est suffisamment simple et bonne pour que l’on voie des clones apparaitre en boutique un jour ou l’autre. La marque n’est d’ailleurs pas spécialement connue pour être une grande innovatrice. Il est possible que cet objet soit en réalité un produit commercial rebadgé pour l’occasion. S’il est proposé à un prix abordable en financement participatif (34€ HT), je préfère passer mon tour pour le moment.

GM Wants Parts Makers To Pull Supply Chains From China

15 novembre 2025 à 10:00
schwit1 shares a report from the Business Times: General Motors (GM) has directed several thousand of its suppliers to scrub their supply chains of parts from China, four people familiar with the matter said, reflecting automakers' growing frustration over geopolitical disruptions to their operations. GM executives have been telling suppliers they should find alternatives to China for their raw materials and parts, with the goal of eventually moving their supply chains out of the country entirely, the people said. The automaker has set a 2027 deadline for some suppliers to dissolve their China sourcing ties, some of the sources said. GM approached some suppliers with the directive in late 2024, but the effort took on fresh urgency this past spring, during the early days of an escalating US-China trade battle, the sources said.

alternative_right shares a report from ScienceAlert: A thorough investigation published in May 2023 found that the inner core of the Moon is, in fact, a solid ball with a density similar to that of iron. To figure it out once and for all, [astronomer Arthur Briaud of the French National Centre for Scientific Research in France] and his colleagues collected data from space missions and lunar laser-ranging experiments to compile a profile of various lunar characteristics. These include the degree of its deformation by its gravitational interaction with Earth, the variation in its distance from Earth, and its density. ... they found that the lunar core is very similar to that of Earth â" with an outer fluid layer and a solid inner core. According to their modeling, the outer core has a radius of about 362 kilometers (225 miles), and the inner core has a radius of about 258 kilometers (160 miles). That's about 15 percent of the entire radius of the Moon. The inner core, the team found, also has a density of about 7,822 kilograms per cubic meter. That's very close to the density of iron. [...] The research has been published in Nature.

She Used ChatGPT To Win the Virginia Lottery, Then Donated Every Dollar

An anonymous reader quotes a report from the Washington Post: Winning the lottery isn't what brought Carrie Edwards her 15 minutes of fame. It was giving it all away. Standing alone in her kitchen one day in September, the Virginia woman was thunderstruck to discover she had won $150,000 in a Powerball drawing. As she was absorbing her windfall, she said, "I just heard as loud as you can hear God or whoever you believe in the universe just say, this is -- it's not your money." Then came a decision: She would donate it all to her three most cherished charities (source paywalled; alternative source). [...] Her journey to the lucky prize started when she walked into a 7-Eleven with a friend who wanted to buy two Powerball tickets. The jackpot for the Sept. 6 drawing was topping $1.7 billion, the second-largest amount ever. Edwards, 68, hardly ever played the lottery, but her friend was an active player who gave her two pieces of advice: Always buy a paper ticket, rather than getting them online. And the Powerball multiplier is a scam, don't do it. She ignored him on both accounts. She created a Virginia Lottery account on her phone. Then, instead of the typical strategies of using family birthdays and lucky numbers, she went to ChatGPT -- which she had only recently started using for research -- and asked, "Do you have any winning numbers for me?" "Luck is luck," replied the chatbot. Then it gave numbers that she plugged in -- paying the extra dollar for the Power Play to multiply anything she might win. She initially thought luck wasn't on her side when she didn't win the massive jackpot. But what she didn't realize is that she'd picked the "draw two" option, meaning her numbers were reentered for the next drawing. When she got a notification on her phone that she had won, she said, she thought it was a scam, or maybe she'd won something small, like $10. Just to satisfy her curiosity, she logged into her account and saw that she had matched four of the five numbers plus the Powerball in that second drawing. It would have been a $50,000 payout, but the multiplier tripled her winnings.

Apple's $230 iPhone Pocket Sells Out Nearly Immediately

Par :BeauHD
15 novembre 2025 à 00:50
Apple's limited-edition "iPhone Pocket" sold out almost instantly worldwide despite its $150-$230 price tag. Appleinsider reports: Longtime Apple users immediately saw the resemblance with the old iPod socks, and everyone saw the price. Apple and Japan's Issey Miyake fashion house partnered to create a limited edition iPhone Pocket, a stretched sock-like bag or shoulder strap. There was no denying that an iPhone in this Pocket looked snuggly. There was definitely no denying that the accessory was well designed. There's also no question that it was about as goofy as the iPod Sock from back the in the day. But there was every denying of the price. The iPhone Pocket came in a short version for $150, and a longer one for $230. For comparison, the Apple Watch SE starts at $250. As ever, though, if you liked it, if you had a use for it, and if you had the budget, there was no reason left not to buy. But if you have hesitated because of the cost, you are now out of luck. There are none left in the US.

Five People Plead Quilty To Helping North Koreans Infiltrate US Companies

Par :BeauHD
15 novembre 2025 à 00:10
"Within the past year, stories have been posted on Slashdot about people helping North Koreans get remote IT jobs at U.S. corporations, companies knowingly assisting them, how not to hire a North Korean for a remote IT job, and how a simple question tripped up a North Korean applying for a remote IT job," writes longtime Slashdot reader smooth wombat. "The FBI is even warning companies that North Koreans working remotely can steal source code and extort money from the company -- money that goes to fund the North Korean government. Now, five more people have plead guilty to knowingly helping North Koreans infiltrate U.S. companies as remote IT workers." TechCrunch reports: The five people are accused of working as "facilitators" who helped North Koreans get jobs by providing their own real identities, or false and stolen identities of more than a dozen U.S. nationals. The facilitators also hosted company-provided laptops in their homes across the U.S. to make it look like the North Korean workers lived locally, according to the DOJ press release. These actions affected 136 U.S. companies and netted Kim Jong Un's regime $2.2 million in revenue, said the DOJ. Three of the people -- U.S. nationals Audricus Phagnasay, Jason Salazar, and Alexander Paul Travis -- each pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud conspiracy. Prosecutors accused the three of helping North Koreans posing as legitimate IT workers, whom they knew worked outside of the United States, to use their own identities to obtain employment, helped them remotely access their company-issued laptops set up in their homes, and also helped the North Koreans pass vetting procedures, such as drug tests. The fourth U.S. national who pleaded guilty is Erick Ntekereze Prince, who ran a company called Taggcar, which supplied to U.S. companies allegedly "certified" IT workers but whom he knew worked outside of the country and were using stolen or fake identities. Prince also hosted laptops with remote access software at several residences in Florida, and earned more than $89,000 for his work, the DOJ said. Another participant in the scheme who pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud conspiracy and another count of aggravated identity theft is Ukrainian national Oleksandr Didenko, who prosecutors accuse of stealing U.S. citizens' identities and selling them to North Koreans so they could get jobs at more than 40 U.S. companies. According to the press release, Didenko earned hundreds of thousands of dollars for this service. Didenko agreed to forfeit $1.4 million as part of his guilty plea. The DOJ also announced that it had frozen and seized more than $15 million in cryptocurrency stolen in 2023 by North Korean hackers from several crypto platforms.
