A brain implant just let a paralyzed man walk again — with no body movement required.
At Lausanne University Hospital in Switzerland, a man who had been paralyzed from the waist down for over a decade just took steps again — not with exoskeletons or braces, but by using a digital bridge between his brain and spinal cord.
Neurosurgeons implanted two wireless devices: one on his motor cortex (inside his skull) and one on his spinal cord.

The system uses machine learning to decode brain signals in real-time and adapts over time to match the patient's movement goals. It's not just a tool — it's an extension of the nervous system.
And as incredible as it sounds, the man’s original spinal cord function began showing signs of natural reconnection after several weeks, suggesting that stimulation may promote healing too.
Neurotechnology has reached a point where thought alone can resurrect motion — even after years of silence.

The US itself is among the economies hardest hit by Donald Trump’s trade policies, the OECD said. It slashed its US growth forecast to 1.6% this year, from 2.8% in 2024. It also cut expectations for global expansion.

Fallout from Trump trade war takes toll on U.S. economy, OECD says, as it lowers global outlook

Global economic growth is slowing more than expected only a few months ago as the fallout from the Trump administration’s trade war takes a bigger toll on the U.S. economy, the OECD said on Tuesday, revising down its outlook.

"The essential characteristic of Western civilization that distinguishes it from the arrested and petrified civilizations of the East was and is its concern for freedom from the state. The history of the West, from the age of the Greek polis down to the present-day resistance to socialism, is essentially the history of the fight for liberty against the encroachments of the officeholders."

Full disk encryption - Hibernation and unlocking

Hey magical linux-oracle,

I recently made a full disk encryption on my computer via the debian installer.

I partitioned it like this:

SSD:

-- unencrypted part --

Boot - 1GB space, Mounting point: /boot

EFI - 512MB space, Mounting point: ESP, bootable flag: on

-- encrypted part --
Encrypted container with a volume group (vg-1) containing 3 logical volumes:
Root - 50GB space, Mounting point: /
Swap - 30GB space, Mounting point: swap
Home - Rest of space, Mounting point: /home

  • Second harddrive fully encrypted with one logical volume and mounting point /mnt/data

The install of linux worked pretty well.

Unfortunately, the hibernation part doesn't work out of the box. When I press hibernate (or standby), it only goes to the lock screen. How can I solve that issue? (Is it even a good idea to use hibernation on encrypted devices?)

Second thing: As you can see from my setup, I use 2 disks. When I start up my system, I only need to enter my decryption password once (not twice for the 2nd HD) and I see, that my second hard disk seems to be mounted already. It seems that people usually struggle with typing in their passwords twice and want a solution for that. Is it possible, that debian automatically fixed this for me (It's the same pw for both)?

Thanks!

You have to use two swaps if you already use one swap, because one will be used when the system is on, but the second will be used to set the RAM content + the 1st content into SWAP (if any), otherwise, it would fail.

Then, find the hibernation swap uuid:

sudo swapon --show
lsblk -o name,uuid

Then
# /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="resume=UUID=xxxx"

\#/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
resume=UUID=xxxx

# bash
sudo update-grub
sudo update-initramfs -k all -u

# to hibernate on lid switch
# /etc/systemd/logind.conf
HandleLidSwitch=hibernate

Then reboot 😀

I have this working on Debian like how you have it set up, everything on an encrypted lvm volume, except for boot and efi. Just one disk though. When waking up, it asks for the password like it does during normal bootup. It then restores RAM from the encrypted swap after you type the password. I think it worked out of the box, but it has been a while, so not 100% sure if I had to enable this somehow. Anyway this looks good to me.

If you manually run systemctl hibernate, does that work? Assuming this also does not work, you need to look at the logs during the failed hibernate attempt. Probably something like sudo journalctl -f and/or sudo dmesg -wH (for kernel logs). Open this up in two terminals, run systemctl hibernate and observe any errors or warnings.

It's possible this is a hardware/driver issue, i.e. a driver prevents hibernation or fails at it. You may be able to figure out which driver/device is responsible by looking at the logs.

If Starmer was serious in condemning atrocities committed in Gaza, he could stop sending weapons and intelligence to Israel, stop trading with them, kick out the ambassador, recognise Palestine and more. None of that, quite the opposite in fact.
The article goes on to expose our current Israeli ambassador Tzipi Hotovely for the far right extremist she is. She is a war criminal and should not be given sanctuary in UK or anywhere.

So this is a thing that is VERY VERY much nowhere near done yet, but I want to share what I've got so far. It's a list of as many retro games as I can find which had a trans person on the dev team or otherwise involved in some way, along with a quick summary of who and what they did. It's partially an attempt to counter the narrative that trans people are some New Thing that's only just showed up on the gameing scene and also society in general, which sometimes these kinds of lists can accidentally imply, and also it's just kind of a fun bit of HEY LOOK AT ALL THIS COOL SHIT TRANS PEOPLE DID. I've found over 170 games so far, with quite a lot I'm still to properly go off on.

(Edit: That's over 300 (!) games now. Thank you SO much people who've pointed me at stuff I've missed. I'll be working on trying to play all of these and write up stuff about the ones I haven't really said anything about yet.)

Oh, would you look at that? It almost lifts the spirit, but not quite.

You know, looking at fresh water like this reminds me that AI will use over 6 billion cubic meters of water between now and 2027 just to cool down the data centers.

While the average human being only drinks 60 cubic meters of water in his life.

Yes, it's a scarce resource, but a small price to pay for a technology that would show us what Ratatouille would look like if it was directed by Stanley Kubrick.
