Pour de nombreux lecteurs, la découverte du manga s’est faite avec Akira. Å’uvre phénomène dans les années 80 et 90, cette bande dessinée et le film d’animation qui en a été tiré ont vite propulsé le créateur Katsuhiro Otomo comme un auteur culte dans le monde entier. Sous le titre Anthology, les éditions Kana publient aujourd’hui dans leur label Sensei des histoires courtes signées du maître. Après Akira en version couleur ou noir et blanc et Dômu, c’est un nouveau pan de l’Å“uvre de ce mangaka qui devient accessible pour les lecteurs francophones.

Dans ce volume de 260 pages, des récits vieux d’une trentaine d’années sont compilés. Très divers dans leur format, les scénarios proposés ici vont de la science-fiction au moyenâgeux en passant par l’absurde. Souvent drôles, les pages se révèlent d’une étonnante modernité dans le trait. Des séquences sont également mises en couleur et bénéficient de quelques effets spéciaux, ce qui vaut au livre de dégager une très forte odeur d’encre.

Sans être indispensable, Anthology est un recueil recommandable, bien loin des premiers travaux gauches ou non-aboutis. Doté d’un humour étonnant et rendant hommage à ses influences les plus patentes comme Moebius et la culture rock, Otomo boucle l’album avec des commentaires pertinents sur chaque histoire. Pour 18 euros, les fans d’univers post-apocalyptiques et d’humour potache y trouveront leur compte, un grand écart anthologique !

Le premier tour du vote des militants socialistes, qui désignent actuellement leur nouveau premier secrétaire, n’a pas permis de départager Ségolène Royal (43,1%) et Martine Aubry (34,5%). Benoît Hamon (22,83%) est éliminé et appelle à voter Martine Aubry. Un second tour aura donc lieu aujourd’hui.

Is Apple scared of RIM?  —  Is it a coincidence that Apple's iPhone 2.2 update was released on the same day the BlackBerry Storm hit stores with a touch screen, 3G connectivity, and enterprise-friendly functionality that rivals anything Apple has on the market?  —  I think not.

A stand-up comedy course for the inmates of a maximum security prison in Cambridgeshire was called off today after it emerged that a convicted al-Qaeda terrorist was among the would-be comics.

When most private companies reach 500 shareholders, they trigger an SEC rule which effectively treats them like a public company and requires them to some of the same reporting requirements. Google ran into this issue just before it went public. Now Facebook is quickly reaching that same threshold as it continues to hire and allows employees to sell shares to outside investors.

But in a letter dated October 13, 2008 (embedded below), Facebook’s lawyers argue that rule should not apply to Facebook because most of the shareholders are employees. The SEC granted the exemption.

So Facebook can keep issuing both restricted stock and options to new employees without fear of triggering the (costly) reporting requirements. As long as most of those shares stay inside Facebook, the company should be all right. But if enough employees take advantage of its program allowing them to sell shares to outsiders, and the number of outside investors grows beyond a handful or a few dozen, the SEC might want to revisit this decision.

Hi, Sorry to bother you, I was wondering if you would be able to help me. I play an online MMO Dungeons & Dragons Online and a program called windows packet editor recently came to my attention I was wondering if you’d be able to spare a few moments to give me a better understanding of WPE and how it can be used to *ahem* alter packets of data so I might be able to say duplicate items or alter certain in game values in DDO. Kindest regards, [name redacted]

Sure, here’s the answer:

No.

The reasons:

• Unless there are egregiously bad security problems with the DDO protocol, hacking packets on your end should only change the way things look on your end. See my previous post “How to hack an MMO.”
• Virtual world developers do not actively help destroy the virtual worlds of their colleagues.

Bethesda has confirmed that it's "working on" patches to fix a number of issues discovered in all three versions of Fallout 3.

While Fallout 3 has made a great start sales wise, numerous users have been left with a sour taste in their mouth after running into technical issues with the game.

Complaints on the game's official forums report crashes, lock-ups and graphical glitches, particularly with the PS3 version. But Bethesda assures players that a fix is on the way.

"We are currently working on a patch for all three platforms," wrote a Bethesda community manager. "When I've got more details, I'll let everyone know."

A brief and vague statement then, but at least we know for sure that Bethesda's on the case. Have you been one of the unlucky people to suffer from problems with the game? Fingers crossed it'll all be sorted soon.
