Call of Duty: WWII launched on Xbox and PC Game Pass just a few days ago, but RCE hackers wasted no time hitting new players with exploits and taking over PCs. The Call of Duty team has temporarily taken the PC edition of WWII offline to investigate the exploits, but refuses to outright explain to players what the "issue" is.

Attention les nostalgiques ! Si vous avez grandi dans les années 90 avec un PC sous Windows 95 et que vous étiez fan de LEGO, y’a de fortes chances que vous ayez passé des heures sur LEGO Island. Ce jeu culte de 1997 où on incarnait Pepper Roni, le livreur de pizzas le plus cool de l’île, vient de recevoir une seconde jeunesse grâce au projet isle-portable.
Pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas, LEGO Island c’était LE jeu en monde ouvert avant l’heure. On pouvait se balader librement sur une île peuplée de personnages loufoques qui se démontaient dans tous les sens pour nous faire marrer. Entre les courses de jet-ski, les missions de dépannage et la fameuse poursuite en hélicoptère où on balançait des pizzas sur le méchant Brickster (oui, des pizzas, le truc qui l’avait aidé à s’échapper), c’était du grand n’importe quoi mais qu’est-ce qu’on adorait ça !

Building your first PC? I've learned over the two decades that I've been building systems that it's best to follow certain rules, and I'm here to share them.
Remember when slapping a case on your phone felt like admitting defeat; a bulky, rubbery admission that you valued function over form? Thankfully, times have changed. Now, cases are as much about expressing yourself as they are about surviving that dreaded butter-fingers moment. And in the world of gaming, especially with the newly debuted Nintendo Switch 2, that need for protection and personality becomes even more crucial, SUPCASE is redefining how gamers think about protection – not as an afterthought, but as part of the gaming ritual.
Let’s be real, the Nintendo Switch is basically a handheld shrine to our favorite digital worlds; a device we’ll clutch on commutes, huddle with on couches, and maybe, just maybe, rage-quit less when it’s wrapped in something that can take a beating. Now in its second avatar, the Switch 2 even more capable, even more powerful, and arguably, deserving of an even more design-driven approach when it comes to accessories. Enter Jet Weng, Design Director at SUPCASE, and the mastermind behind the company’s philosophy of fusing robust protection with thoughtful design. His approach isn’t about slapping armor on tech, it’s about creating a symbiotic relationship between the device and the user.
Weng’s journey began, unsurprisingly, with a childhood steeped in tinkering with the most vivid memory being that of disassembling his uncle’s Walkman at the age of 10. “Every day of my childhood was surrounded by the process of taking devices apart, diagnosing problems, repairing, and reassembling,” he recalls. This hands-on education fostered a deep understanding of how things work; a foundation upon which he would later build his design ethos. It’s this innate curiosity that sets his work apart, first with his Behance portfolio that prioritized “feasible concepts that are fused with a poetic touch”, followed by his journey to turn protective cases into engineered solutions rather than mere accessories.
The SUPCASE UB Pro for the Switch 2 is a prime example of Weng’s vision. The UB Pro is a meticulously crafted exoskeleton designed to enhance the Switch 2 experience, not hinder it. It boasts military-grade protection, meeting MIL-STD-810G standards; meaning it can withstand some serious drops and bumps. A 2.5mm raised bezel shields the screen from scratches, while the ergonomic grip and anti-slip texture ensure a secure, comfortable hold, even during marathon gaming sessions.
But the UB Pro is more than a fortress; it’s a testament to Weng’s belief in blending “feasibility” with a “poetic touch.” The case’s design is streamlined, hugging the console and Joy-Cons without adding unnecessary bulk. Constructed from German Bayer polycarbonate, the material resists yellowing, dust, and fingerprints, maintaining its clarity and premium feel over time. It’s a case that looks good, feels good, and performs even better.
Anyone who owned the original Switch knows the frustration of removing a case every time you wanted to dock and play on the big screen. The first-ever person to attempt solving this problem, Weng addressed this pain point head-on with SUPCASE’s original dockable Switch case; a product that was a first of its kind and quickly became a gamer favorite. He recalls, “The biggest challenge was making sure the case didn’t interfere with the Switch’s connection to the dock.” The team went through countless prototypes, tweaking dimensions and internal structures until they achieved a perfect fit. This dedication to solving real-world problems is what elevates SUPCASE’s designs above the competition.

Weng doesn’t just design cases; he designs experiences. He starts by analyzing user pain points, then collaborates with his team to brainstorm creative, yet feasible solutions. He understands that good design is subjective, depending on the product’s purpose. “For example, with a repair tool, function is always the top priority; but for something like a lipstick case, form may take precedence,” he explains. For the UB Pro, function and form are in perfect harmony; protection and ergonomics blend seamlessly with aesthetics.

Hey, bonne nouvelle, Microsoft s’apprête à ajouter sa propre version du “Handoff” d’Apple à Windows 11, et je suis sûr que vous allez adorer, surtout si vous êtes du genre à jongler entre plusieurs appareils, genre un PC et un smartphone.
En effet, lors du récent Microsoft Build 2025 qu’Akash Varshney, Senior Product Manager de l’équipe Windows Cross-Devices and Experiences, a dévoilé ces nouvelles fonctionnalités qui vont enfin connecter nos appareils de façon intelligente. Et contrairement à ce qu’on pourrait croire, Microsoft ne se contente pas de copier Apple puisqu’ils poussent le concept encore plus loin.
