  • Edible Luxury Louis Vuittons Chocolate Indulgence
    www.yankodesign.com
    Ive never aspired to own a Louis Vuitton bag, probably because I will never be able to afford one anyway. But there are a lot of people of course that are fans of the LV monogrammed bag and accessories and given the chance, they would love to own one or more items from their line. But if you tell me that there are edible Louis Vuitton items out there, I would probably think twice (although I still wont be able to have enough money to get one). Desginer: Louis Vuitton and Maxime FredericThe partnership between Louis Vuitton and the renowned pastry chef Maxime Frdric is a masterclass in blending haute couture with haute cuisine. Just in time for Easter, this limited-edition chocolate collection transcends the typical holiday treat, offering a sensory experience that resonates with the brands commitment to craftsmanship and artistry. At the heart of this collection lies the Chocolate Egg Bag, a stunning confection that pays homage to Nicolas Ghesquires iconic LV bag designs. This isnt just a chocolate egg; its a meticulously crafted replica, boasting a 70% dark chocolate shell that exudes richness and depth. The devil is in the details, with 40% milk chocolate handles and zipper pulls adding a touch of whimsical realism. Its a testament to Frdrics skill, transforming a fashion icon into an edible masterpiece.But if the chocolate interests you more, there are also chocolate eggs that have the famed LV monogram etched into it. There are dark and milk chocolate options available. The traditional easter eggs have various fillings like raspberry caramel and pistachio praline, or blue vanilla caramel from Runion Island paired with crunchy buckwheat gianduja. Milk chocolate options feature Tahitian vanilla caramel and hazelnut praline. A playful chocolate figure with a lime-green flower adds a whimsical touch to the assortment.The Louis Vuitton chocolate collection is more than just a seasonal treat; its a cultural phenomenon that blurs the lines between fashion, art, and gastronomy. Its a conversation starter, a symbol of indulgence, and a testament to the power of creative collaboration. This venture highlights how luxury brands are increasingly exploring new avenues to engage with their audience, offering experiences that transcend traditional retail. This will be available as a limited edition collection and will be available exclusively at Le Chocolat Maxime Frdric at Louis Vuitton in Paris, so sorry if you dont live in the city of lights. The price isnt available yet but it will probably be pretty expensive given the brand and also how luxurious it all stands. The post Edible Luxury Louis Vuittons Chocolate Indulgence first appeared on Yanko Design.

  • Ikea registered a Matter-over-Thread temperature sensor with the FCC
    www.theverge.com
    The Ikea Timmerflotte, as represented in an FCC filing.Ikea has registered its first Thread device, a new Matter-supporting temperature and humidity sensor called the Timmerflotte, with the FCC, reports HomeKit News. A diagram from the filing, which was spotted by CybermodStudios, shows a circular device thats powered by two AAA batteries and features a QR code and 11-digit number for Matter setup. The Timmerflotte doesnt appear to use any other wireless protocol other than Thread, HomeKit News notes. That means Ikea, which tends to use the Zigbee or Wi-Fi protocols for its devices, doesnt offer a hub that this device could natively integrate with. Ikeas Dirigera hub lacks both Thread border router capability, for one thing. And although it can now act as a Matter bridge, its not a Matter controller, meaning you cant control Matter products with it.That said, Ikea originally announced that the Dirigera would have Thread support. It ultimately didnt launch with it, but the Timmerflottes listing may be a sign Ikea is ready to switch on the Dirigeras Thread radios and Matter controller functionality. That could let it serve as a standalone smart home hub, similar to the Aqara M3 hub or Flics LR and Mini hubs.

  • Apple @ Work: Apples biometric strategy pays off as IT leaders believe Touch ID and Face ID are the future of enterprise security
    9to5mac.com
    Apple @ Work is exclusively brought to you by Mosyle, the only Apple Unified Platform. Mosyle is the only solution that integrates in a single professional-grade platform all the solutions necessary to seamlessly and automatically deploy, manage & protect Apple devices at work. Over 45,000 organizations trust Mosyle to make millions of Apple devices work-ready with no effort and at an affordable cost.Request your EXTENDED TRIALtoday and understand why Mosyle is everything you need to work with Apple.A new IT report makes it clearIT teams are ready to ditch passwords.85% of surveyed IT admins believe requiring biometrics would improve security, but 68% of admins report that less than half of thedevices they currently manage have biometric capabilities. Thats a massive gap, and Apple might be the best company to fill it as every Apple device comes with biometrics out of the box.About Apple @ Work:Bradley Chambers managed an enterprise IT network from 2009 to 2021. Through his experience deploying and managing firewalls, switches, a mobile device management system, enterprise grade Wi-Fi, 1000s of Macs, and 1000s of iPads, Bradley will highlight ways in which Apple IT managers deploy Apple devices, build networks to support them, train users, stories from the trenches of IT management, and ways Apple could improve its products for IT departments.Touch ID/Face ID has been on the iPhone around for 11 years at this point, and its been available on the Mac since 2016. Today, every iPad, Mac, and iPhone includes biometrics that are out of the box. But heres the real question:If IT leaders already know biometrics are the way forward, why arent Apples authentication systems becoming the default for enterprise security?Passwords are the weak linkand IT teams know itIf theres one thing IT teams agree on, its that passwords are a problem as theyre ripe for phishing. Apple has been heavily pushingpasskey across macOS and iOS, a passwordless authentication method (from the FIDO Alliance) that relies on biometrics or a device-based key. The FIDO Alliance has been working with major device manufacturers and password managers to continue improving the standard (portability is coming soon). Meanwhile, enterprise IT teams struggle with weak passwords, multi-factor authentication fatigue, and rising security threats.The report also notes thatAI-driven cyberattacks are rising, and poorly managed passwords remain an easy target for hackers. IT teams know this, but theyre still playing catch-up when deploying better security tools. 98% of the people surveyed report using password-based systems for at least some IT resources.Ifbiometric security is the future, Apple already has the pieces to win.Touch ID is standard for desktop users on MacBook Pros, MacBook Airs, and Apples Magic Keyboard. Its fast, secure, and tied to Apples Secure Enclave, which keeps biometric data locked away from potential attacks and stays local to the device. For many years, Ive said that Apples not trying to sync biometric data across iCloud strategically was an incredible decision in hindsight.The data is clear, though. IT admins want biometrics to improve their security posture, but many companies still buy and deploy devices that dont support them. In my opinion, thats a strategic mistake. WithApple Silicon Macs gaining traction in the enterprise, 2025 is the time for IT leaders to start prioritizing hardware thatmakes biometrics work great for IT and the end user. Buying devices without biometrics in 2025 is ignoring whats best for security.One thing Id like Apple to begin thinking about in the long term is making biometrics always available, even if you restart the Mac. We need biometrics 100% of the time to move to a passwordless world.JumpClouds report makes it obvious:IT teams know biometrics are the future, but theyre not rolling them out fast enough. Apple is already ahead of the game withTouch ID, Face ID, Secure Enclave, and passkeysits just a matter of enterprise IT catching up with their buying strategy. You can download the full report here.

  • Fired Scientist Replaced Data in Breast Cancer With the Wildest Thing You Can Imagine
    futurism.com
    Near DissMar 1, 12:45 PM EST/byJoe WilkinsA Cancer Scientist Got Fired and Replaced Their Research Data With Wildest Thing You Can ImagineTake this job and shove it.Mar 1, 12:45 PM EST/Joe WilkinsImage by Getty / FuturismAnyone who's ever left a bad job knows the temptation to pull off a petty stunt on your last day. It's one thing if you work at Little Caesar's. But as one cancer researcher found out, sometimes it's best to leave your parting thoughts to an email.Last week, a federal jury found a former Stanford University researcher guilty of tampering with protected email servers. Which somehow sounds better than what actually happened: Naheed Mangi was convicted on several charges for deleting breast cancer research data and replacing it with insults directed at her former supervisor.It's a trial over ten years in the making: back in 2013, Mangi was let go of her job as a research coordinator overseeing an experimental breast cancer treatment due to performance issues. Though no longer welcome to log into Stanford's clinical database, Mangi's account wasn't revoked until the next day.So the former researcher indulged in a costly romp through the digital garden, falsifying patient records with nonsense information, insulting clinical doctors, and launching a diatribe at her boss.When Stanford launched an investigation into the breach of a protected database, Mangi's former coworkers noted she was "very angry" about the firing. Now, after a lengthy investigation by the Secret Service, the researcher is facing a max of 21 years in prison after causing "thousands of dollars in financial loss" to the University."Naheed Mangi intentionally tampered with a breast cancer research database by entering false information and personal insults," said US attorney Patrick Robbins in a Justice Department statement about the conviction. "Her senseless actions undermined a study into the safety and efficacy of a new treatment for breast cancer patients."It's not known why this case took so long to prosecute, but it's clear that Mangi's antics went way over the line.They're also unusual; academic fraud is alarmingly common, but usually it takes the form of researchers chasing clout by falsifying interesting results in a bid to get published in impressive journals.Still, she's not the first spurned employee to give into the temptation to leave some vengeful pranks behind after a firing.Last month, a former Disney employee pled guilty to tampering with allergy information and adding swastikas to Disney restaurant menus,on top of changing wine regions to sites of mass shootings. He faces a minimum of two years in prison for tampering with "nearly every menu in the system" months after being let go for misconduct.Like Mangi, the former Disney employee was slammed with federal charges via the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, a key piece of legislation used to prosecute breaches of access on the web.The incidents are cautious reminders: regardless of how much you detest your boss, stay away from mischief that could hurt innocent people, even if your password still works after getting sacked. Our advice? It's probably best to stick to the stapler in Jell-O.Share This ArticleImage by Getty / FuturismRead This Next

  • Never-before-seen screenshots show off cancelled Twisted Metal battle royale
    www.eurogamer.net
    Never-before-seen screenshots show off cancelled Twisted Metal battle royale"It had shooter mechanics wrapped with vehicle combat with the objective of being the last one standing."Image credit: Peacock News by Vikki Blake Contributor Published on March 1, 2025 PlayStation's recently cancelled Twisted Metal game was reportedly a battle royale.As spotted by MP1st, the abandoned game - known internally as Project Copper - allegedly blended third-person shooting mechanics alongside the vehicular combat the series is known for.Twisted Metal Season 2 | Official Teaser | Peacock Original.Watch on YouTubeHow do we know this? A UI programmer working at Firesprite from April 2022 to October 2023 has uploaded obscured screenshots from the work-in-progress to their portfolio. Whilst the game isn't explicitly mentioned and the images are blurred, you can nonetheless still see early prototypes of the third-person action both in and out of vehicles."I was part of Project Copper leading the UI team," the developer wrote on their online portfolio. "I was tasked with creating a generic UI system to be used in multiple projects in the company, I was also managing a team of 2 UI Programmers while working with other teams." Image credit: FirespriteAs for the game itself? The dev describes Project Copper a "third person vehicular action combat game based on a classic IP owned by PlayStation developed by Firesprite (PlayStation Studios)"."It had third person shooter mechanics wrapped with third person vehicle combat with the objective of being the last one standing," they added.Back in February 2022, Sony stated it aimed to launch over 10 new live service games over the coming years. A month later, then-Sony exec Jim Ryan said he believed live service games were a key part of gaming's future, confident in PlayStation's live service push.However, since then, the company has been pulling back on this vision, with several proposed projects cancelled, including two more in January.In related news, just last week, Peacock shared its first trailer for the second season of Twisted Metal. The upcoming second series stars Anthony Mackie, Stephanie Beatriz, Joe Seanoa, Will Arnett and Anthony Carrigan."As they try to survive an onslaught of dangerous new foes and familiar faces alike, including the murderous clown Sweet Tooth, things get complicated for John when he reunites with his long-lost sister, the vigilante Dollface," reads the official blurb.
