L'iniziativa intende imporre agli editori di lasciare in uno stato funzionale (giocabile) i videogiochi che vendono o concedono in licenza (o le collegate funzionalità e risorse che vendono per i videogiochi che trattano) ai consumatori dell'Unione europea.

Nello specifico, punta a impedire che gli editori possano disattivare da remoto i videogiochi prima che siano forniti mezzi ragionevoli per mantenerli in funzione senza coinvolgere gli stessi editori.

L'iniziativa non intende acquisire la proprietà di tali videogiochi, dei diritti intellettuali associati o dei diritti di monetizzazione, né si aspetta che l'editore fornisca risorse per il suddetto videogioco una volta interrotto, lasciandolo in uno stato ragionevolmente funzionale (giocabile).

Geometria e topologia svolgono un ruolo centrale nella fisica moderna, dalla formazione delle stringhe cosmiche nell'universo primordiale agli intricati modelli di crescita di foglie e petali di rosa. Da una prospettiva applicata, i difetti topologici sono fondamentali per comprendere i guasti meccanici nei materiali solidi e per descrivere i fenomeni di fusione nei sistemi bidimensionali.

Definire i difetti, tuttavia, richiede una configurazione di riferimento, tipicamente uno sfondo ordinato idealizzato. Nei cristalli, gli atomi sono disposti in strutture reticolari periodiche, rompendo la simmetria traslazionale continua in un sottogruppo discreto. Questo sfondo ordinato consente una definizione precisa di difetti come dislocazioni e disclinazioni.

Al contrario, i materiali amorfi, come il vetro di una finestra, mancano di ordine a lungo raggio. Le disposizioni atomiche sono disordinate oltre poche distanze interatomiche, rendendo l'identificazione e la classificazione dei difetti particolarmente elusive. Eppure, questa non è solo una sfida accademica: la capacità di prevedere dove e come un vetro potrebbe rompersi sotto stress ha implicazioni dirette per la progettazione, la sicurezza e l'ingegneria dei materiali.

Negli ultimi anni sono stati compiuti progressi significativi nell'identificazione dei difetti topologici nei vetri. Tuttavia, questi sviluppi sono stati in gran parte limitati a modelli bidimensionali semplificati, limitandone la rilevanza per i materiali reali. In una recente pubblicazione su Nature Communications , la Dott.ssa Arabinda Bera e il Professor Alessio Zaccone (Università degli Studi di Milano), in collaborazione con il Professor Matteo Baggioli (SJTU), hanno introdotto, per la prima volta, una definizione robusta dei difetti topologici nei vetri tridimensionali.

After successfully fending off three subpoenas from filmmakers seeking user data related to piracy discussions, Reddit is back in federal court.

Supreme Court Lets Trump Banish Immigrants to South Sudan

Mamdani, a 33-year-old New York state assemblyman, shocked the political world last month with a primary win over former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who resigned his position in 2021 after several women accused him of sexual harassment.

The Times noted that on the campaign trail, Mamdani touted his Muslim faith and South Asian ancestry. He was born in Uganda in 1991 and moved with his parents to South Africa five years later. Two years later, the family moved to New York.

::: spoiler The Times report cited a figure who goes by the name Crémieux on X and Substack:

• Last month’s cyberattack appears to have been carried out in order to see if Columbia was still using race-conscious affirmative action in its admission policies after the Supreme Court effectively barred the practice in 2023.
• While Mr. Mamdani was not a target of the hack, the information about him was included in a database of millions of student applications to Columbia going back decades. The data was shared with The Times by an intermediary who goes by the name Crémieux on Substack and X. He provided the data under condition of anonymity, although his identity has been made public elsewhere. He is an academic who opposes affirmative action and writes often about I.Q. and race.
  :::

One of the speakers at the conference is billed under a social media alias, Cremieux, but the Guardian has corroborated that the account is apparently run by Jordan Lasker, a long-time proponent of eugenics.

::: spoiler The @cremieuxrecueil X account has been boosted or engaged with dozens of times by that platform’s proprietor, Elon Musk, often on the topic of falling birthrates.

• On 27 November, Musk reposted a Cremieux comment on falling birthrates, adding: “With rare exception, all countries are trending towards population collapse.”
• On 29 April, Cremieux posted: “Only about a third of the world even meets replacement rate fertility. This is the biggest problem of our time.” Musk responded: “Yes.”
• Musk has also boosted or responded favorably to Cremieux posts on other rightwing hobby horses such as crime in Portland, Oregon, and allegations that Democrats had created loopholes in the asylum system.
• Away from X, Cremieux runs a Substack also featuring posts on the supposed relationships between race and IQ. A prominently featured post there seeks to defend the argument that average national IQs vary by up to 40 points, with countries in Europe, North America, and East Asia at the high end and countries in the global south at the low end, and several African countries purportedly having average national IQs at a level that experts associate with mental impairment.

Snip:

US security contractors for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) say they are firing live ammunition, stun grenades, and pepper spray against Palestinian civilians attempting to collect food in Gaza, according to testimonies and video evidence reviewed by AP.

“There are innocent people being hurt. Badly. Needlessly,” one contractor said, describing unqualified, unvetted, and heavily armed guards hired to manage crowd control at US-funded aid distribution sites.

Speaking anonymously due to fears of retaliation, two contractors said lethal force is used routinely, even when no threat is present. “Bullets were fired in all directions – in the air, into the ground and at times toward the Palestinians,” one said, recalling at least one instance where a person was likely hit.

US authorities pledged $30 million to support the aid scheme's operations in May, bypassing UN mechanisms. Journalists have been barred from accessing the sites, located inside Israeli military-controlled zones.
