    Simon Willison, le créateur de Datasette et co-créateur de Django, vient de porter un modèle d'inpainting d'image directement dans le navigateur. Sa démo vous permet de choisir une photo, de peindre sur la zone à faire disparaître et ensuite le modèle IA reconstitue ce qu'il manque. Et ce qui est merveilleux avec cette appli c'est que tout tourne sur votre carte graphique en local, comme ça vos données restent chez vous.

    Le modèle s'appelle Moebius, dispose de 0,22 milliard de paramètres, et a été développé par une équipe de l'université Huazhong en Chine. À l'origine c'est un modèle PyTorch, que Willison a converti au format ONNX pour le faire tourner via ONNX Runtime Web sur le backend WebGPU, une nouvelle API qui donne aux pages web un accès direct au GPU. Et ce qu'on obtient, c'est un modèle de diffusion qui s'exécute à 100% côté client dans Chrome ou Safari.

    Lors de la première utilisation, l'outil télécharge 1,27 Go de poids depuis Hugging Face, ce qui est énorme pour une page web. Mais c'est un one-shot car ensuite, le navigateur range tout ça dans son Cache Storage, et les fois d'après il ne re-télécharge rien.

    Je l'ai installé et testé et ça fonctionne vraiment très très bien. J'ai sélectionné quelques tuiles comme un bourrin et ça me les a enlevées très proprement en quelques dizaines de secondes (une fois le modèle initial téléchargé évidemment).

    C'est du vrai inpainting génératif en tout cas et pas un truc qui recopie les pixels d'à côté.

    Willison raconte dans le README que la conversion PyTorch vers ONNX et l'appli web complète ont été réalisées par Claude Code avec le modèle Claude Opus 4.8, et qu'il n'a "*pas regardé une seule ligne de code *". Il s'est juste contenté de tester dans le navigateur et de signaler ce qui clochait. Hé ouais c'est comme ça maintenant, les temps changent ;)

    C'est open source sous licence Apache 2.0, la démo est en ligne, et le code est sur GitHub si vous voulez le lancer chez vous. Testez, et effacez ce gars avec son coup de soleil sur le crâne qui gâche votre plus belle photo de vacances, je ne vous juge pas ^^.

    Adopt a cat, they said. It'll be fun, they said. But those who have actually done it know that the fun part doesn't always begin the second you bring your furry friend home. It can take days, weeks, months or even years for a rescued cat to settle into their new home, and learn to trust, eat, love and play again.

    While shelter life is no paradise for any animal, adoption can also come with its fair share of trauma, anxiety and fear for cats. It's a massive and overwhelming change that's not always easy for a new pet owner to navigate. But if you stick it out, adopting Mr or Mrs Whiskers can turn out to be one of the best and most rewarding decisions of your life. Seeing them eventually glow up and gather their confidence is nothing short of amazing.

    People have been sharing the before-and-after pics of their rescued cats, and many might melt your heart. It was a really difficult task but Bored Panda has selected the most adorable photos from a thread of many for you to purr through. Don't be surprised if you feel inspired to head to your local shelter later to adopt a pet of your own.

    Millions of cats enter shelters in the United States every single year. Sadly, some never make it out alive. According to the ASPCA, around 2.2 million cats were adopted in 2025, 362,000 were returned to their owner or the field, 376,000 were transferred to other organizations, and 277,000 were euthanized.

    There are loads of reasons cats end up in shelters across the world. Some are found on the streets as strays. Others are surrendered because their owners can't afford them, are moving, or simply can't 'handle' them. The latter, say experts, is often down to a general lack of animal care education.

    According to experts at Cold Nose College, cat behavioral problems, especially inappropriate urination (missing the litter box), are consistently cited as a top reason cats are relinquished. Other behavioral factors include cat-to-cat aggression, biting, and destructive scratching.

    "Just like a child, animals do not learn how to be good' all on their own. They need positive guidance and to be taught how to be a well-mannered member of a family," says Cyn Demers from the Saving Grace Humane Society. "If more people had access to training classes or basics on the pet they were getting, it would lead to more cohesive households and less animals being surrendered due to their innate nature as a different species."

    Adopting a cat can be an incredibly rewarding experience and comes with many pros. Firstly, you’ll be saving a kitty from life in a shelter by providing them with a loving and warm home. And by adopting from a rescue centre, you’ll be assisted by trained staff who know each of the cats well enough to find the right match.

    "A shelter will always assess your lifestyle to make sure it is suited to the wellbeing and needs of the cat, and will be able to answer any questions you may have," say the experts from Royal Canin, a global pet nutrition brand.

    Adopting is often also cheaper than buying from a breeder. “Shelter cats are usually treated for parasites, examined by a vet and are very often sterilised and vaccinated before you take them home,” notes Royal Canin's team, adding that most shelters will ask for an affordable financial contribution as an adoption fee.

    They suggest asking a lot of questions before deciding on the purr-fect kitty. Find out the cat's age, what its life was like before the shelter. Staff may or may not know the answer but it's worth asking anyway. Also ask if the cat is comfortable being left alone, and whether they have any unusual behavior or if there’s anything you should be aware of.

    You might also want to know how the cat reacts to children and/or other animals, and whether they are used to going outside. If you do have other pets at home, you may want to ask the shelter if they can help organize a meet-and-greet.

    Experts advise that you spend some time with the cat you intend to adopt, before making a final commitment. "Try to see the cat several times before adopting it and spend some time allowing it to get to know you," explains the Royal Canin site.

    When it comes to bringing your newly adopted cat home, there are a few things to keep in mind. Firstly, give him or her space and a place to hide when they feel overwhelmed. The cat might not show you the immediate affection you're craving for and it's best to follow their lead by letting them come to you first. Don't smother them with love and cuddles, as hard as it may be.

    "After adoption, your new cat wants a safe place to observe the scene until they’re comfortable enough to explore," reveals the team at Rover. "Make sure these spaces are pet-safe; you don’t want them getting stuck in a wall."

    "Your cat needs your presence to get familiar with you, but at a distance. Respect their boundaries by keeping yourself in the same room as your cat without invading their personal bubble," advises Rover. "You can read a book, stream your favorite show, or take a phone call (many cats are reassured by voices). Eventually, your adopted cat will come to understand that you are safe."

    According to Rover's site, a cat will let you know when they're ready for all the love you have to offer. Dilated pupils, flattened ears, and a rapidly twitching tail are signs that the cat is still nervous. But if the cat starts rubbing up against you or puts out a playful paw, it's inviting you into its space.

    When they're ready, don't be afraid to play with them. It's great for exercise and even better for bonding.

    If you’ve ever asked a pet parent to choose between you and their pet, there’s a good chance you already know how that story ends. For many people, pets aren’t “just animals”—they’re family. They’re loyal companions, emotional support systems, and the ones who stick by us through some of life’s toughest moments. Whether it’s a dog greeting you at the door after a long day or a cat curling up beside you when you need comfort most, those bonds run incredibly deep.

    That’s exactly what happened in today’s story. One woman absolutely adored her two pet cats, both of whom had helped her through some of the most difficult periods of her life. So, when she got engaged, she made it clear from the very beginning that her beloved pets would be moving in with them. But not long after the couple started living together, her fiancé gave her a shocking ultimatum: she had just four days to “get rid of” one of her cats. Keep reading to find out how the situation unfolded.

    Many pet owners share incredibly strong emotional bonds with their pets

    Research suggests that pet ownership can lower stress levels and improve emotional well-being

    Whether someone chooses to have a pet or not is a deeply personal decision. Just like any lifestyle choice, pet ownership comes with its own set of responsibilities, challenges, and rewards. There’s the daily feeding, grooming, vet visits, and, yes, the occasional fur-covered couch. But for millions of people around the world, the positives far outweigh the inconveniences. Research has consistently shown that pets can help reduce stress and anxiety, ease feelings of loneliness, provide unconditional love and emotional support, create a calming presence at home, and even give people a greater sense of purpose. After all, there’s something incredibly comforting about knowing that no matter what kind of day you’ve had, someone is always excited to see you walk through the front door.

    Pets don’t just benefit our emotional health; they can also encourage healthier lifestyles. One study found that more than 60% of dog owners meet the recommended weekly amount of physical activity. That means they’re getting at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise every week, simply because their furry companion needs regular walks. Many owners even say their dogs motivate them to leave the house on days when they’d rather stay in bed. Those daily walks often turn into opportunities to explore parks, meet neighbors, enjoy fresh air, and build healthier routines. In many ways, dogs become the most persistent (and perhaps the cutest) personal trainers anyone could ask for.

    But here’s something even more interesting. Traditionally, pets were often viewed as companions within families that already had children. They were considered an addition to the household rather than a central part of it. Today, however, researchers are noticing a significant shift. As birth rates decline in many countries and family structures continue to change, pets are increasingly taking on much larger roles in people’s lives. It’s becoming more common to hear people refer to themselves as “dog moms” or “cat dads,” and while those labels may sound playful, they reflect a genuine emotional connection. Increasingly, pets aren’t simply living alongside families; they’re becoming an essential part of what family means.

    Several broader demographic changes help explain why this is happening. In many developed countries, marriage rates, fertility rates, and even household sizes have declined over the past few decades. At the same time, more people are living alone or spending longer periods of adulthood without partners or children. As a result, pets are often filling roles that might once have been occupied by spouses, siblings, or children. They become trusted companions, sources of emotional comfort, and loyal members of the household. While they certainly don’t replace human relationships entirely, they often help ease feelings of isolation and provide a level of companionship that’s difficult to put into words.

    Research supports just how deeply people value these relationships. According to Psychology Today, 77% of dog and cat owners say their pet is a family member “just like anyone else”. Similarly, Pew Research found that nearly all dog owners in the United States consider their canine companions to be important members of the family. In fact, in some countries, dogs now outnumber children. That statistic alone highlights just how dramatically society’s relationship with pets has evolved. For millions of households, caring for a pet isn’t viewed as a hobby or luxury; it’s simply part of everyday family life.

    Shifting family dynamics and growing social isolation have strengthened the emotional role pets play in people’s lives

    Animal behavior researcher Enikő Kubinyi has spent years studying this growing bond between humans and their pets at ELTE Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest. In a paper published in Current Directions in Psychological Science, Kubinyi explores why these relationships have become so meaningful. She argues that the parent-child-like bond many people develop with their dogs is driven by both biology and culture. Humans have evolved with a natural instinct to nurture and care for others. At the same time, modern society has changed dramatically, with smaller families, fewer children, and increasing social isolation. Together, these biological instincts and cultural shifts have helped strengthen the emotional role pets now play in our lives.

    Kubinyi explains this idea even further, saying, “Many people now live without close family ties or regular interaction with children. For example, in recent years, nearly 90% of adults in Hungary do not spend any time caring for young children, although our species is biologically adapted to cooperative child-rearing. Yet the psychological need to nurture and connect hasn’t disappeared.” In other words, while society has changed, our emotional wiring hasn’t. People still seek meaningful connections, opportunities to care for someone, and relationships built on trust and affection. For many, pets naturally step into that space, offering companionship without judgment and affection without conditions.

    At the end of the day, pets mean different things to different people. For some, they’re loyal companions who brighten everyday life. For others, they’re emotional anchors who helped them survive grief, loneliness, anxiety, or some of life’s darkest moments. That’s why asking someone to give up a beloved pet is rarely as simple as giving away an object. It often feels more like losing a close friend or family member. While every household has to find arrangements that work for everyone, it’s also important to recognize the emotional significance pets hold in so many people’s lives. Understanding that bond is often the first step toward finding compassionate solutions.

    Coming back to this particular story, it’s easy to understand why the woman felt so heartbroken. She had made it clear from the very beginning of the relationship that her two cats would always be part of the package, and her fiancé had known about them long before they moved in together. That’s why his sudden ultimatum came as such a shock. Relationships naturally involve compromise, but many people felt this demand crossed a line—especially when it involved a pet that had been part of her life for years. Others also questioned why the issue wasn’t raised more seriously before they became engaged. Pandas, what are your thoughts? Was the fiancé being reasonable about living conditions, or was asking her to give up one of her beloved cats simply too much?

    Several commenters encouraged the woman to leave her fiancé

    There are so many advanced technologies that feel almost like magic. Smartphones. Airplanes. Robotic surgery. Virtual reality. Robot vacuums zooming around your local supermarket. And... 3D printing. No matter how much time goes by, we still can't get over how cool it is that you can quickly make almost any three-dimensional object that you envision from the comfort of your own home.

    We want to celebrate the brightest and most brilliant creators and hobbyists out there who have come up with some truly inspiring 3D printed designs. So, we're featuring our favorite projects and designs from the awesome '3D Printing' online community to show you what’s possible with a bit of imagination, patience, and out-of-the-box thinking.

    3D printing essentially involves taking a digital file and then using that info to layer various materials like plastics, composites, or bio-materials to create whatever object you want, with whatever properties you want. Size, texture, material, color, rigidity, flexibility, etc—everything is up for grabs.

    The 3D printing industry is predicted to be worth a jaw-dropping $84 billion by 2029 as the technology’s capabilities continue to soar. This continued spread of 3D printing tech makes it highly likely that you and I will, eventually, interact with products, homes, buildings, toys, prosthetics, medical models and implants made with this tech.

    To say that we’re excited for the future of this tech is underselling things.

    #6 I Turned My Workshop Key In To A Chainsaw

    This is the silliest thing I've ever made xD
    When I first fantasized about getting a 3D printer I always thought about all the useful things I could print with it, like replacement parts, etc. But ever since I got it, I catch myself having way to much fun making useless funny stuff :)

    One of the coolest things about this tech is that it completely shifts timelines. If you urgently need protective medical gear (like healthcare workers did during the pandemic) or a niche replacement part for an important piece of machinery, you can, effectively, use a 3D printer to get what you need instantly instead of waiting days, weeks, or months.

    Meanwhile, companies can use this speed to iterate on prototypes and test out products incredibly quickly.

    #7 Just Finished Printing And Painting This Celtic Wolf Head. Super Happy With How The Copper Details Came Out!

    Printed this vertical on my setup to get all the clean details on the knotwork. For the finish, I went with a dark base and used a dry brushing technique to make the copper and silver elements really pop.
    What do you guys think of the look?

    #9 I Made A Desk Corner Lamp

    I made a large wooden one of these for my living room last year and decided making a mini one was the perfect way to learn cad.
    This is my first original design: a simple, minimalist corner desktop LED lamp. It’s designed to sit neatly in a corner and cast a soft, indirect glow on the wall. The lamp uses a cheap $7 LED strip from Amazon and prints in one piece, sitting at 10inches tall.

    3D printing can be incredibly efficient, quick, economical, and even eco-friendly. The technology has come a long way over the past few decades since it was created.

    Even though the hype surrounding 3D printing has dimmed, the tech has proven to be very solid. It is practical and commercially viable in the manufacturing and automotive industries.

    It is now used in a wide range of niches, from mass manufacturing and medicine to everyday maintenance (e.g., part replacement), hobbyist DIY, and even art.

    #12 My Friends Showed Me Their 7 Yr Old Son's Drawing. 2 Months Later, I Surprised Him With The Real Thing

    My friends showed me a sketch their 7 year old son, Teddy, had drawn. I immediately knew I wanted to turn this zap ray into a real thing for him, while keeping and expanding on all of the different details he had envisioned in his original concept.
    Teddy's vision was for the zap ray to transport him in and out of the TV so he can meet the characters in one of his favourite shows, Dragon Ball. So of course, he would also need a way to remotely control it (last pic).
    Two months later, this is what I surprised him with (my cat, Cosmo, for scale!).

    #14 The Scale Map Of The USA Is Complete!

    This project has been a work in progress for the better part of 9 months, I've been slowly printing each state as I have the time. Finally added Alaska today to complete the map.
    Because each one is (on average) less than 10mm thick, this whole project actually didn't use that much filament (my best estimate is 3-4kg).
    The scale of Hawaii is a little larger than it should be; the iteration of files I was using had the scaling a little off and I didn't notice until it was finished printing. Haven't decided if it's worth re-printing yet.

    Earlier, Bored Panda interviewed Germany-based computer vision engineer Sricharan Chiruvolu. He was kind enough to share his thoughts on 3D printing, including its applications and upsides, with our team.

    He emphasized that 3D printing has affected the common consumer goods market, allowing for more personalized, custom-made items, whether you’re talking about phone cases or prosthetics.

    “Also, it [3D printing] helps to bring down the production cost for a few products, giving customers more access to distinctive designs,” the expert told us earlier.

    One huge upside of this technology is that it cuts the costs of creating prototypes. This way, businesses can quickly and cheaply test new products, parts, and designs.

    “It has brought about faster distribution of prototypes, thus hastening market entry for new products, while on-demand creation has also prolonged product life for many consumers,” Chiruvolu explained.

    “Through 3D printing, waste can be reduced by using only the required materials for each product; it also supports local production that could reduce transit-related emissions.”

    #20 "3D Printers Are A Waste Of Money!". Oh Yeah? Well

    The bottom of my deodorant broke and there was still like a quarter of it left. So I grabbed my $50 calibers and took some measurements.
    Then I fired up my $2000/year CAD program on my $3000 computer and designed a replacement in a few minutes.
    I then used the FREE slicer that came with my $1500 3D printer and after 20 minutes, I had a 15 cent replacement.
    This saved nearly $2 in deodorant that I would have had to throw away.
    All said and done I saved I saved -$6548.15!
    Totally worth it! Engineering School really has helped me save money!

    “Many materials used in 3D printing are recyclable or biodegradable, thus offering green alternatives; through simplifying maintenance processes, this technology can help prolong the life of products. This helps reduce overall waste and promotes a circular economy mindset where materials are reused and repurposed rather than discarded.”

    Meanwhile, there’s lots of potential for 3D printing to rapidly revolutionize healthcare and medicine, too.

    “Advances in bioprinting could make it possible to 3D print organs for transplantation, and more complex medical items will be made using improved multi-material printing,” the expert told Bored Panda.

    That’s on top of the benefits for industry.

    #27 Peak Laziness Achieved: I 3D Printed A Hand So I Don't Have To Use My Own

    I got tired of the grueling physical labor of raising my arm every time the sun was in my eyes, so I designed a wearable face hand. It features a fully adjustable strap and provides 100% autonomous sun shading.
    Is it stupid? Yes. Does it actually work flawlessly? Also yes.

    “Larger build volumes and faster printing rates will enable 3D printing to be a practical choice for mass manufacturing, opening up previously unheard-of possibilities in a variety of industries. Envision entire neighborhoods filled with quickly and effectively built 3D-printed homes, transforming the housing market and tackling problems like disaster relief and affordable housing,” Chiruvolu mused.

    “Furthermore, there is even more potential when artificial intelligence and 3D printing are combined. AI is able to optimize designs for material efficiency, strength, and weight, resulting in products that are not only highly functional and sustainable but also inventive.”

    #28 3D Printed Hobby Desk Storage Wall

    Finally finished printing the last few custom parts for my hobby desk storage walls. The base pieces are the Multiboard project. Really loved the way the paint racks turned out. I think dedicated bottle holder racks that are more popular in style would have been far less versatile. I'm also really happy with the gridfinity shelf that holds my small tools that get used frequently. Much more convenient to pull the small organizer off the wall, into the desk, and use the tools right there. I was worried about the weight of the large bottles of various paint liquids on top of the drawers, but those are very solid. I think the only part I'm not in love with is that I didn't have a vision of the whole thing when I started, so it's printed in a mishmash of various blues instead of a unified color theme... Oh well, maybe v2.0

    #30 The Print That Got Me A Job

    I went from unemployed graduate to now working at a pretty sweet job!
    As we all know job markets are pretty rough around the world especially in the UK for new grads.
    So I started off offering 3D printing as a service as well as selling on Etsy to support myself.
    I also help out occasionally in my local community and a local property manager needed a statue for the front of his building!
    I took a 3d scan of an existing statue with my iPhone then re modelled it with nomad and fusion.
    I did basic FEA of the cut blocks at the base and adjusted the infill to be a bit stronger towards the base as the total weight sits around 30-40kg of PETG (I cannot remember the exact weight now as this was 3 months ago)
    Total print time was a bit over 1200 hours and took over 15 days of straight printing (very little failures or re-prints needed). The entire print was joined together with a mix of industrial glue (I think the name was CT something) plastic welder, filler, 3D pen and of course the mighty solder to help clean up some rough edges. The base half of the statue is screwed to the building as I just used Bambu slicer to add holes in all the blocks.
    My total spend on material was £230ish and I was paid £1000. (Yeah I was definitely underpaid but this was my first and maybe my last time doing something this big!)
    Safe to say the guy was super impressed and asked if I needed a job as to put it in his words: if you can design and print a statue, you can handle spreadsheets and talking to people.
    For anyone concerned about weather or longevity. It’s covered in thick coats of paint and clear coats to finish it off.
    To note: the manager did say he was quoted 3 months and £2.5k for plaster which is why he wanted a faster solution and turned to 3d printing.
    To anyone really concerned about longevity, property folk don’t really care and just want the job done quick and dirty as it’s not really their concern in 10-20 years time. Hence why I was lowballed at £1k🤣

    #34 My Brother And I Designed Our Own 3D-Printed Metal Watch

    A few years ago, u/raceking37 and I decided to create our own digital watch. The project was inspired by a few vintage HDSP-2000 LED matrix displays that we had acquired. These displays were first introduced in the 1970s and have a really unique look, especially under a microscope (as shown in the last image). They're quite difficult to photograph with my phone, though, so they look much nicer in person than they do in these photos. The watch uses an ATTINY1616 microcontroller. The metal case of the watch is SLM 3D-printed in stainless steel.

    #38 3D Printed PC Case

    After months of work, I'm delighted to be able to present the Mk01: a 3D-printed mid-tower PC case !
    A PC case for mini ITX and micro ATX motherboards, customizable, upgradeable, with a retro futuristic, minimalist and playful design!
    For ventilation and airflow, it can accommodate two 120mm fans on the front. The top and bottom are perforated for improved cooling. At the rear, you can add an 80 mm fan for extraction.
    All the pc parts fit together like a jigsaw puzzle and are screwed together. The outer parts of the pc are magnetized. You can open the pc at any time, without unscrewing, change the pc’s style without reprinting the complete case, print custom parts
    What do you think of it?

    #39 This Is Exactly Why I Bought A Printer Two Months Ago

    Finished printing a heavily modified PC case I’ve been working on and wanted to share the result here since the whole thing was printed on my Bambu P1S.

    The design started from an FF04-style case, but I ended up modifying it quite a bit to fit modern hardware and my own layout ideas. It’s now housing my main gaming SFF PC, so this thing is fully functional and not just a display print. So many iterations of parts as well in the last photo lol.

    Printed in Polymaker HT PLA GF, and overall I’m really happy with how clean the panels and structural parts came out. The P1S handled the job surprisingly well considering the number of large parts involved.

    Honestly though, printing something this size really made me want a larger-format printer someday, especially something like a Prusa CORE One XL with the toolchanger/index system, just to avoid splitting parts so much and to experiment more with multi-material setups.

    Still dialing in some finishing touches, but the case is basically done now and running daily.

    #40 Fully 3D Printed Life Size Horus

    5 months and 1752 individual 3d printed pieces later, I have a Horus Lupercal.
    Quick stats:
    Total tip top height: 14’ 5” | 4.4m
    Top of Horus’s head: 11’ 9” | 3.6m
    Human: 5’ 5” | 165cm
    Why not paint him before assembling? This isn’t a mini 😁. A practical was the only way to see what issues will pop up, if it can even support itself, if something will break or if I need to reinforce something. Better for something to happen now, than to waste weeks painting only to find out it all falls apart.
    He is missing his talon, but a combination of me not thinking through access and not enough floor height, I could not add it yet. Even the Worldbreaker is at a slightly higher level due to the pallets. It’s not flush in the arm. So I had to use cords to hold it for now.
    I did have to saw a portion of his leg armor off as it was interfering with his forearm. These things I couldn’t account for in theory.
    His arms and pauldrons are held in place with rods, hooks and a massive heavy duty turnbuckle. Basically the same exact set up in my space marine, but beefier.
    There is no additional support in his legs. Just straight up hollow plastic.
    I will have a more detailed post in the future regarding cost, filament, weight, waste and other technical details for this project.
