Something to look forward to: Ask someone what the best Zelda game ever made is, and most people will say either Breath of the Wild or Ocarina of Time. Luckily for those who pick the Nintendo 64 classic, a fan-made port is arriving on the PC in a few weeks. Videogameschronicle reports that a group of community developers called Harbour Masters has been working on the Zelda port, which is now 90% complete and could arrive as soon as mid-February. The port builds on the work of the Zelda Reverse Engineering Team whose two-year project saw it decompile the Ocarina of Time’s code. A similar method was used to create the Super Mario 64 PC port from 2020. "We’ve been hoping to be complete by the middle of February and use a month or so until April 1st to refine the game before release," said Harbour Masters developer ‘Kenix,’ adding that work on the PC port started almost as soon as Ocarina of Time was completely reverse engineered. Kenix said that the Zelda port uses … [Read more...] about Fan-made PC port of Zelda: Ocarina of Time set to arrive in a few weeks

Les chercheurs en cybersécurité de Jetpack (un outil de sécurité et d'optimisation spécifique à WordPress) ont découvert qu'un acteur malveillant a compromis AccessPress - un éditeur de thèmes et de modules complémentaires pour webmasters. AccessPress a jusqu'à présent mis à disposition 40 thèmes et 53 plugins. Tous les thèmes gratuits ont été compromis, de sorte qu'une fois installés, ils permettent aux cybercriminels les contrôlant de modifier totalement le site web ciblé et de récupérer ses bases de données. Les chercheurs n'ont pas encore pu tester les thèmes e-commerce et, de ce fait,  ne se prononcent pas sur leur vulnérabilité. Le rapport indique également que le code malveillant exploité permet de couvrir les traces des hackers avec un succès relatif. La seule façon de confirmer ou d’infirmer qu’un site WordPress a été compromis est d'installer puis d’activer une solution de surveillance de l'intégrité des fichiers, indique Jetpack. Meilleurs logiciels de création de … [Read more...] about Des thèmes et des plugins WordPress gratuits menacés par des failles de sécurité critiques

The U.S. Navy lost a F35C Lightning II combat jet Monday after it crash landed while conducting routine flight operations in the South China Sea. The accident occurred while the jet was trying to land on the flight deck of an American aircraft carrier, injuring seven sailors. The pilot was able to eject before the aircraft slammed into the flight deck of the USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70) and then reportedly went over the side. The pilot was safely recovered by a helicopter, said Lt. Mark Langford, a spokesman for the U.S. 7th Fleet. Seven sailors, including the pilot, were injured and three were evacuated for medical treatment in Manila, Philippines, while four were treated on board the ship, AP reports .

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) on Monday delivered his promised “Blueprint to End Gun Violence.” The plan ushers in a host of fresh restrictions while seeking backing from the judiciary to deliver harsher penalties on criminals in the violence-plagued city. The 15-page initiative includes deploying more officers on the streets and subways, bringing the courts to full capacity and addressing mental health and social issues. Adams also wants “health professionals” flooding the subway system to act and counter potential miscreants before they attack. “I’ve been at the bedside of a police officer who was shot by a 16-year-old as they struggled for a gun,” Adams said in a speech Monday as he made public his plan, as reported by UPI. “I’ve seen a toddler’s blood-stained pink jacket in the street. I have held hands and prayed with a mother… an 11-month-old baby was shot in the head by a gunman who didn’t care where those bullets went. And on Friday night, two officers were … [Read more...] about NYC Mayor Eric Adams Announces Plan to Tackle Violence
