Macron ou l’ultime symptôme de la crise de régime
Ignorant les urnes comme les mobilisations, le chef de l’État tente encore de profiter du système ultra-présidentiel de la Ve République, au risque de la catastrophe démocratique.Ellen Salvi (Mediapart)
Tip of the day: Inserting an SD card with a #postmarketOS install for the Nokia #N900 into your Fairphone 5 will lead to unexpected results!
But it boots up and I can trigger the menu to shut the phone down again. The i3 config seems a bit unhappy though.

Cronos: The New Dawn just hit Steam today—and it’s already staking a claim as one of the most distinctive survival horror releases in years.
The setting is bleak. A ruined Eastern Europe scarred by The Change—a cataclysm that warped humanity beyond recognition. You play as a Traveler for the Collective, hunting down rifts that spit you into 1980s Poland. The architecture is concrete brutalism, the tech is rusted retro-future, and every corner hides something waiting to kill you. To get anywhere, you manipulate temporal anomalies: rewind a bridge, restore a tram line, or even reassemble shattered geometry.
But here’s the hook. Enemies don’t stay dead. If you drop a creature and walk away, others can absorb the body through a process called Merging. Suddenly, that shambling beast is faster, stronger, meaner. The only way to stop it? Burn the corpse. Ammo is scarce, supplies are limited, and every mistake makes the next fight worse. It’s the kind of mechanic that twists your stomach before you even enter a room.
Visually, this is top shelf. Unreal Engine 5 with hardware Lumen ray tracing, DLSS 4, and HDR. Textures are razor-sharp, environments drip with atmosphere, and even the fog feels alive. Recommended specs are heavy—RTX 3080 or RX 6800 XT—but somehow this is Steam Deck Verified. Linux gets a native build, too. Sorry Mac users—you’re out.
Audio is equally strong. Ambient soundscapes make ruined Kraków hum with dread. Voice acting sells both timelines, and you’ll want headphones just to soak in the detail. Controls work with keyboard and mouse, but Bloober recommends a pad. Thankfully, both Xbox and PlayStation controllers plug in without fuss.
Now the studio itself. Bloober Team was once a AA outfit—the Layers of Fear people. Then they shipped last year’s Silent Hill 2 remake, and suddenly they’re in the big leagues. Cronos is their most ambitious game yet. With about 250 staff, I wouldn’t call this a “AAA” monster. It’s closer to a “III” game—the same niche Hellblade carved, polished but still indie-rooted.
And the reception? Steam users are on board. At launch, it’s holding 84% positive on over 670 reviews. Critics are mixed-to-favorable—praise for the atmosphere and puzzle design, gripes about stingy resources and checkpoint traps.
Price point: C$76.99 standard, C$89.99 deluxe if you want the art book and soundtrack. Call it premium indie or baby-AAA—but it’s priced like a blockbuster.
Bottom line: if you want survival horror that genuinely adds something new—time-rift puzzles, corpse burning, and GPU-melting visuals—Cronos: The New Dawn may be worth the ticket. Just don’t expect to walk away unscathed.

Gerard Dou – The Dropsical Woman (1663)
Rembrandt’s student, but with his own obsession: brushstrokes so fine they vanish.
The light is hushed, filtering across a sickbed. Shadows close in, yet every face, jug and fold of cloth shines with quiet intensity — a chamber staged in fragility.

The image features a young man with curly, dark hair and striking blue eyes. He is wearing a rugged, earth-toned garment with a black scarf draped over his shoulders. The background is a blurred, sandy color, suggesting a desert-like environment. The man's expression is serious and contemplative, with a small black object, possibly a nose ring, visible on his nose. The overall tone of the image is somber and evocative, with a focus on the man's intense gaze and the textures of his clothing and hair.
