Availability of the Nintendo Switch 2, the Xiaomi 14T Pro falls in price, an iPad for less than 300 euros and more. Hunting bargains

by

We return with a new hunting bargains in a week with a lot of movement by brands such as Nintendo with the launch of its new console. On this occasion, during the week we have been able to see a good assortment of offers that, in many cases, are still available. Are you looking for a mobile or a tablet? Well, attentive to the bargains we bring in this article. Xiaomi 14t Pro by 599 eurosa good price on Xiaomi’s mobile in its 1 TB configuration. iPad (2021) by 279 eurosa very interesting price to be an iPad in its 256 GB configuration. Google Pixel 9a by 499 eurosGoogle’s mobile has a new minimum price on Amazon. Nintendo Switch 2 by 469 eurosthe new Nintendo console still has stock. Lego of ‘The Simpsons’ by 199.99 eurosa new set of the iconic series that adapts the Krusty Burger. Xiaomi 14t Pro Xiaomi’s mobile has received a huge assortment of offers since its launch and after so many months we can now find it at a very good price. He Xiaomi 14t Pro It has dropped, in this case, the price in Mediamarkt in its 1 TB configuration and can be found by 599 euros. Between the most remarkable of the Xiaomi 14t Pro We find an excellent 6.67 -inch AMOLED panel that offers a 1.5K resolution. Its processor is the MEDATEK DIMENSITY 9300+its battery supports fast charge of 120W and wireless load of 50W, comes with artificial intelligence functions and His cameras are signed by Leica. * Some price may have changed from the last review iPad (2021) Although there are some iPad that have a rather adjusted price – like the iPad (2025)-, From time to time we can find even better prices in other models, especially in previous generations. This is the case of iPad (2021); It is not the most current, but for 279 euros It is a very good purchase option, especially considering that it is the iPad in its 256 GB configuration. He iPad (2021) It is currently a good model to use it on a day -to -day basis, especially to see multimedia content. Mount a good one 10.2 -inch Retina Retina screen and inside it comes with the chip A13. In addition, it is compatible with some Apple accessories, as is the case with the first generation Apple Pencil. * Some price may have changed from the last review Google Pixel 9a If Xiaomi’s mobile does not convince you, we can also find very good offers in other brands. He Google Pixel 9a It is a good example, since, although it was launched very recently, it can already be found in Amazon for a price of 499 euros In its 128 GB configuration. He Google Pixel 9a It is an excellent purchase option if what we are looking for is a Google mobile with a tight price. Mount one 6.3 -inch Poled Display and its processor is the G4 Google.

The labor shortage and the Youth unemployment reduction They are two common problems to Many countries in Europebut also from the world in general. Norway is studying a formula to end both of a single blow: a fiscal lottery to encourage your young people Millenials and generation Z get to work. The measure, which is raised as a large -scale experiment, could mark the way in the way in which countries address Youth employment. A tax raffle for young people. Jens Stoltenberg, Minister of Finance, and Tonje Brenna, Minister of Labor, have put on the table an unorthodox fiscal measure to foster the employment among the youngest. Its plan consists in carrying out a raffle between the population between 20 and 35 years, in which 100,000 people will be randomly selected to receive a tax reduction of up to 27,500 Norwegian crowns per year, which is equivalent to about 2,512 euros. According to He explained The Ministry of Finance, the objective is to analyze whether a reduction in the fiscal invoice can motivate young people to leave the well -being system and encourage them to find a job. “The Norwegian government wants more people to work and less people receive social benefits,” The minister declared to Newsweekadding that the initiative seeks to “gather more knowledge about the effects of a fiscal loan on work to assess whether it could be an effective measure to increase labor supply.” Shortage of labor and low youth participation.As is other countries in the world, Norway faces a significant shortage of labor in several sectors. However, a considerable part of its youth is not incorporated into the labor market. According to data From the EURES European Labor Portal, only 60.3% of the Z generation in Norway has a job, which means that more than one in three young people is outside the labor market. The last Active Population Survey DataA in Norway reveals a unemployment rate in April 2025 is 4.3%, (in front of the 11.36% of Spain), while the Youth unemployment Between 15 and 24 years it is 12.8%. The INE dataThey point out that youth unemployment among children under 25 in Spain is 26.53%. The Norwegian experiment. The Norwegian proposal is raised as an experiment to study the effect of Fiscal incentives in employment policies. Therefore, the tax cut is raised as a tool that allows comparing the work behavior of young people who benefit from the fiscal exception to those who will not receive the incentive. “This will provide us with solid data on whether this fiscal deduction really promotes youth employment and how much more or less will those who already have a job work,” said the Ministry of Finance in an official statement. Reuters He informed that the experiment will have a cost for the Norwegian coffers of about 500 million crowns per year (about 45.7 million euros), which will leave the Global Government Pension Fund (GPFG) that manages the income that the country obtains by the exploitation of its gas and oil deposits. Debate on equality and redistribution. The measure has generated An intense debate In Norway, a country where equality and Redistribution of wealth Through taxes are fundamental values. The proposed fiscal cut will benefit only 8% of young workers, leaving the rest without changes, which has been criticized by some sectors as a source of inequality. Despite criticism, the government defends the initiative as a necessary and temporary experiment, which will last between three and five years, and that requires the previous approval of Parliament. If approved, the results of the investigation could influence future policies to encourage youth employment. As the Ministry of Finance has indicated, “depending on the results of the trial, it could increase the probability of implementing a fiscal credit for wider labor, provided that it is effective. However, greater knowledge could also lead to definitively discarding if the experiment does not have the desired effect.” In Xataka | Germany has successfully tested the vital basic income of 1,200 euros: they improved their training and changed jobs Image | Unspash (Julian Zwengel, Alina Belogolova)

Ryanair has seriously injured to Valladolid airport. And that’s why threatens new cancellations this winter

by

First they announced the exit. After there would be delays. Now they threaten more games. Ryanair has filed a pulse with the government following a historical fine and alleged Aena rates too high. And the most affected are the neighbors of the provincial capitals of our country. “They are not profitable routes”. And that is why Ryanair’s departure is logical and “it is possible to enter other regional airports in these changes.” These changes are cancellations of routes and the words are from Elena Cabrera, Country Manager of Ryanair in Spain, to questions from Spanish-Invertia. With them certifies the pressure policy that the company is doing in Spain, in response to a historical fine imposed by the Executive that has led to the company of some Spanish airports, seriously injuring its activity. What happened? Ryanair’s threat to leave more airports in Spain is not born from nothing. In November 2024, the Government certified a historical fine to various airlines Low Cost. The reason: they were charging for wearing a hand suitcase. The sanction for Ryanair It was more than 107 million euros. The fine imposed by the Ministry of Consumption is, in the eyes of Ryanair, illegal. They point out that they do let travel with a hand suitcase but that It should not exceed contained dimensions 40 x 20 x 25 cm. The battle on whether or not this is legal has arrived in Europe. Spain will have to give explanations in front of the EU Pilota mediating referee designed to resolve conflicts between the European Commission and the Member States. Essential. The origin of the conflict is in the word “essential.” That is the hand luggage that airlines are obliged to allow the passenger for free. Obviously, for the government there is no doubt: the reduced dimensions do not comply with the norm and the bulge cannot be qualified as “essential.” Ryanair believes the opposite. And the problem is that Not justice agrees. In Spain we have had sentences that contradict themselves. Cases in which passengers is right And Ryanair is forced to compensate them and cases in which he fails In favor of the company And the speech is bought that this backpack is enough to travel. AENA’s rates. Perhaps because abandoning Spain for the simple fine was too controversial or because, really, there is an economic reason in it, Ryanair assures that if he leaves Spain it is because of the high rates that the company charges for operating at its airports. These fees serve to pay the cleaning, safety or maintenance services of airports but for the Irish company They are too high. Aena defends himself by ensuring that There are multiple discounts that leave the operation at regional airports at a very low price. For the moment, Competition has forced Aena to freeze rates. 800,000 seats. Aware of its strength in some regional airports, Ryanair has abandoned Operations in Valladolid and Jerez de la Frontera this summer. And has reduced its presence in Vigo, Santiago, Zaragoza, Asturias and Santander. This has led to Valladolid for 60% of air traffic. In total, there are 12 routes that have been canceled or reduced their activity. According to Expansionin the balance for this summer, telling all the airlines, 92,000 seats have been lost to fly from Spain. Of the lost places, 75% are a consequence of Ryanair’s march of these airports. More tension. Now, Ryanair continues to stretch from the rope. Seen the impact they have claimed for months that regional airports They live “a terminal decline” For a long time. The lack of passengers is, they say, the main reason for their march. That they have not been covered by competitors “demonstrates that they are not profitable routes”, in the words of their country manager. However, we must bear in mind that the company has not been operating by volume in this type of route. As is happening With a flight from the Canary Islands to Morocco, It has been institutional advertising the one that has kept these lines alive. To the point that in some cases contracts have been broken that still remained active.

Putting the International Space Station at risk

by

The sudden open war Between Elon Musk and Donald Trump He has just jump to space with threats in both directions that could suppose the anticipated end of the International Space Station. Trump gave the first blow. After investing 277 million dollars in the presidential campaign of Donald Trump, Elon Musk He left his role in front of Doge With a seemingly friendly farewell broadcast live from the White House. The next day, the president of the United States withdrew the nomination of Jared Isaacman as NASA administrator. Isaacman, an old Spacex partner, had been recommended by Musk to lead NASA. The nomination was made public six months ago. Everything was ready for the businessman to assume the highest position in the space agency, but Trump has commented that he withdrew his nomination to discover that Isaacman was a Democrat. Isaacman, meanwhile, clarified that the government I had always known of his donations passed to the opposite party. Battle of Gallos. If something has in common Elon Musk and Donald Trump is his immeasurable thirst for attention. Although his relationship was already broken, he climbed after Musk described the megaproject of the law ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ of the Trump administration as a “disgusting abomination”. According to the tycoon, the law increases public debt instead of reducing it. This triggered several stabs that happened on Thursday in a matter of hours. Some as aggressive as an elon tweet suggesting that Trump has not published Epstein’s papers because he comes out in them. But the main cross of accusations and threats has been the following: Trump: “Elon was becoming a heavy one, I asked him to leave, I removed the EV mandate (the Biden order that forces more than half of the vehicles sold in 2032 to be electric) and even if I knew from the beginning that he was going to remove it, he went crazy!” Elon: “Without me, Trump would have lost the elections, the Democrats would control the House of Representatives and the Republicans would have 51-49 in the Senate. What ingratitude.” Trump: “The easiest way to save money from our budget, billions of dollars, is to end Elon’s subsidies and government contracts. I was always surprised that Biden did not do it!” Elon: “Before the president’s statement about the cancellation of my government contracts, Spacex will begin to dismantle the Dragon spacecraft immediately.” The end of the ISS? Although SpaceX’s main business Be the Starlink Satellite Internet servicethe cancellation of all its public contracts would affect multiple government, military and NASA programs, including the resupply and transport flights of astronauts to the International Space Station. With the Boeing Starliner capsule In an indeterminate limbothe Crew Dragon of Spacex is the only ship available in the United States for crew rotations in the ISS. To top it off, NASA committed to its international partners to keep the space station operational until 2030. For all this, Trump’s threat seems impossible to materialize. Nevertheless. If by Musk it were. Elon Musk answered the threat of running out of public contracts with an even worse threat: the immediate dismantling of the Dragon program. It would look like a heated without much route, if it weren’t because it coincides with The wishes that the businessman had expressed Previously: advance the end of the ISS and focus on the conquest of Mars. It is not completely impossible to happen (Musk has been very clear in the past on Starship and Mars as company priorities), But dismantling the Dragon would be a headache, in addition to NASA, for all types of Spacex partners: ESA, the Japanese space agency, the Canadian space agency, Axiom, the companies that had them for their commercial stations, and a long etc. To top it off, NASA had commissioned Spacex the development of the spacecraft that will be in charge of exorbiting the ISS After 2030. If there is a public contract that should not be canceled now is that. Leave a 455 tons space station to your fate and the size of a football field does not suit anyone.

The fight between “giants” causes Tesla to collapse and lose 100,000 million in a few hours

The good relationship that Donald Trump and Elon Musk exhibited for months has deteriorated significantly in recent days. Although the businessman seemed to leave his position in the Doge (Department of Government Efficient) in good terms, With a farewell from the Oval Officetensions have not stopped increasing. So much so that on Thursday the president of the United States was “very disappointed” by the criticisms of the CEO of Tesla to the fiscal bill that promotes its administration. The owner of X (formerly Twitter) responded in several publications that, without his support, Trump “would have lost the elections.” The dispute rose when Trump said that “the easiest way to save billions of dollars” of the federal budget is canceling the subsidies and government contracts that benefit Musk companies. According to The New York Timesonly in 2024 the companies linked to the tycoon accumulated about 100 contracts with about 17 federal agencies. Most were for Spacex, but Tesla also is among the beneficiaries. In total, there were about 3,000 million dollars. Trump even affirmed that he had asked Musk to leave his post in the government, an affirmation that the businessman strongly denied in X: “What a lie so obvious. How sad.” The climb coincides with a delicate front for Tesla. The fiscal policies promoted by the Trump administration could be a coup of 1.2 billion dollars to the annual benefit of Tesla, according to JPMorgan (Via Bloomberg), by largely eliminating the fiscal credit of 7,500 dollars for electric vehicles. On Thursday, the stock market effects were demolving. Tesla fell up to 18 % in its worst day since September 2020. At the close, the collapse was 14.26 %. Only on that day, he lost more than 100,000 million dollars of stock market capitalization, erasing a good part of the rebound he had achieved in recent weeks.

The latest in Robotics of South Korea is not humanoid or works in factories. Does something out of the ordinary: Parkour

by

The physical state. As detailed in A video available on YouTube, the first step is taken by the planner, which generates possible routes from a map of the environment. That map is continuously updated with sensor and simulations data. Then, a neuronal network rules out risky options and stays with the most efficient. The tracker, on the other hand, guides the precise movements of the robot. It was trained through reinforcement learning, a technique based on trial and error, which prepared it to adapt to dynamic and challenging scenarios. To save calculation time, Raibo reuses their own footprints: the hind legs step on where they did the front before. Raibo training simulation As they count, the robot was able to run on irregular surfaces, overcome stones, cross inclined ramps, climb stairs and even jump gaps of more than one meter. It reached a speed of 2.7 meters per second. And the most surprising: if the goal moved, the robot detected and recalculated its route without help, without stopping and without losing control. Meanwhile, robotics does not stop in the rest of the world. Raibo’s advance is not an isolated case. It is part of a global wave of developments in which robotics and AI are more and more intertwined. Without ia, robots would continue to be little more than a set of sensors and engines. With AI, they are able to interpret their environment, make decisions and execute complex tasks with autonomy. Companies like Google are betting on it. With Gemini Roboticstheir last great project, have designed a system capable of controlling different types of robots in real time, understanding human language, pointing to 3D objects and adapting to new situations without prior training. The search engine giant says that his performance in unforeseen tasks doubles that of previous models. For now, this technology is in the test phase, but Google already collaborates with companies such as Apptronik or Boston Dynamics to integrate it into advanced humanoids. China is also accelerating. And it is not the only region that is investing strong in this direction. In China, humanoid robots not only train: they compete. A few weeks ago, The country celebrated a Kickboxing tournament Between four G1 robots by Unitree Robotics. He was broadcast live and showed how these machines were able to dodge blows, get up alone after falling and continue fighting with surprising agility. They are 35 kilos robots and up to 23 degrees of freedom, designed with state -of -the -art sensors, and according to organizers, new multisport competitions are already in preparation. Robots developed in China in a boxing ring And there are already robots working in real factories. Meanwhile, in the United States, some humanoid robots have left the laboratory and are entering real factories. One of them is Figure 01, that has long worked in a BMW plant in South Carolina. This robot, developed by the Figure company, can open doors, climb stairs and manipulate objects autonomously. Of course, it still moves slowly and needs to be connected by cable permanently. Parkour as the advancement of the future. All this helps to understand why Raibo’s case is so fascinating. It is not humanoid, nor has it been created for industry or home. But it shows that, combining real -time decision algorithms with light hardware and advanced training, it is possible to create machines that not only execute orders, but also improvise and have an agility that causes vertigo. Touch to wait to know how these advances find a place in really useful applications. There will be the real leap.

Nvidia smiles at the future. The pulse held by the US and China governments is degrading their business in the latter country because the US administration prevents them from selling its chips to its Chinese clients to artificial intelligence (Ia) more powerful. Even so, the company led by Jensen Huang currently monopolizes about 90% of the market of the GPUs for Ia. It is likely that in the medium term its quota will be reduced against the presumable growth of competitors such as Huawei or AMD, but right now Nvidia has no reason to worry. And it does not have them because the semiconductor market to grow a lot over the next few years. According to the AMR consultant (Allied Market Research) In 2031 it will have a turnover volume of More than 263,000 million dollars. It is a real barbarity, especially if we are in mind that in 2021 its business amounted to just over 11,000 million dollars. Although the NVIDIA quota is reduced during the next few years, it is reasonable to assume that its business volume will be increased by market growth. The problem facing this company is now another. This is what the engineers who hire in Taiwan pay Nvidia’s directive dome seems to be very clear about what to continue growing next to the AI ​​chips market for data centers: expand. It is about it. However, we must not overlook that this company is dedicated to the design of integrated circuits, so it does not need to invest in the construction of semiconductor manufacturing plants; What needs to expand its network of research and development centers (R&D). And Taiwan is a very attractive destination. Nvidia already has an R&D center in Taiwan, and is launching another The semiconductor industry is The main support of the island’s economywhich has caused Taiwanese universities to develop specialized training programs that seek to place the highly qualified technical staff on the labor market that They require companies such as TSMC, UMC or Foxconnamong others. Nvidia already has an R&D center in Taiwan, and is launching another. However, you are facing a very serious problem: it is having many difficulties in recruiting the highly qualified engineers you need. It is surprising, but although in Taiwan thousands of engineers are formed every year, the companies of the island have a hard time recruiting as many as they need. Even to TSMC. To solve this problem NVIDIA has chosen to offer very high wages. An engineer who has just finished his studies and, therefore, has no experience, pays him a maximum salary of $ 83,000 annually. And an experienced engineer up to 185,000 dollars a year and a very juicy bonus. According to the Taiwanese medium EBC News Nvidia’s aggressive salaries’ policy responds to the need for attract TSMC engineers highly qualified. It does not seem crazy. After all, the law of supply and demand works. Image | Nvidia More information | Tom’s hardware In Xataka | Nvidia has to deal with the absolute distrust of several US legislators.

The British who lost 700 million in Bitcoins when he threw his album has just achieved what anyone saw coming: his own series

by

In the world there is only one hard drive that nobody has been able to find, but many remember. Contains between 7,500 and 8,000 bitcoins and, According to its owneris buried under tons of garbage in a Newport landfill, Wales. James Howells It has been trying to recover it for more than a decade because its digital assets exceed 700 million euros. He has not succeeded. However, its story is now more valuable than ever: an American producer has bought exclusive rights to turn it into docuserie, podcast and, if everything goes as planned, also into content for social networks. Howells is a computer engineer. He lives in Wales and has been obsessed for years with the idea of ​​recovering that device, which ensures that he keeps the private keys of a digital fortune generated in 2009, when the price of cryptocurrency had not yet risen. At that time, Bitcoin was a newborn experiment. It used to undermine from domestic computers and its value was so low that no one imagined what it would be. Howells was one of the first to get on that wave, and also one of the first to lose everything without having sold anything. A landfill, a digital fortune and an obsession without end to view As told the Guradian years agomore than a decade ago, while cleaning at home, confused hard drives. He threw the wrong. Shortly after, seeing how the price of Bitcoin raised, he realized what he had done. “Do you know when you throw something in the trash and you think ‘it’s a bad idea’? It really happened to me,” he told the newspaper. Since then he is convinced that the device ended up in the Docksway Municipal Villagemanaged by the Newport City Council. And since then, he has also tried to recover it by all possible means. Over the years he has presented different proposals to find the album. In 2022 came to raise an operation of 10.7 million euros To execute with a team of data recovery specialists, environmental engineers and specific machinery. Its plan included the use of artificial intelligence, a robotic arm to sift waste and even Boston Dynamic robot dogss. He also offered part of the money with the authorities and the citizens of Newport. But nothing worked. Authorities have always refused. They allege that environmental risks are too high, that the operation does not guarantee results and that the public cost, in case of failure, would be unassumable. In January 2025the British Superior Court rejected the claim of Howells, claiming that There was no “realistic possibilities” successful Shortly after, the resource was also dismissed. Howells represented himself in the view, using AI tools to prepare his case. It was not enough. Now plan Bring the case to the European Court of Human Rights. And meanwhile, consider another option: Buy the landfill. The City Council has announced that it will close during the 2025–2026 year and plans to convert part of the land in a solar park. For Howells, that decision disassembled one of the key arguments used against him in court: to suspend the activity of the landfill to dig would cause damage to the neighbors. If the closure is already underway, he maintains, there should be no more obstacles. He says he talked to investors and ensures that he has support to acquire the installation “as it is.” This whole route is the one that has captured the attention of Lebula producer based in Los Angeles specialized in multiplatform stories. As we point out above, he has acquired the exclusive rights of Howells’s history to develop what they have entitled ‘The Buried Bitcoin: The Real-Life Treasure Hunt of James Howells‘, a project that will combine different formats and channels. The objective is not only to tell the past, but also to follow in real time the next steps of the protagonist. The initiative includes “a premium format docuserie”, a narrative Póstcast and a short content strategy for social platforms. Lebul defines the project as “a live treasure search” that mixes technology, judicial drama and personal ambition with a very current backdrop: the promise of cryptocurrencies. As explained by the company, CGI effects and high -level narrative resources will be used to recreate the key moments of history and show the technical plan proposed by Howells. “This is not just content,” said Reese Van Allen, president of Unscripted Entertainment in Lebul. “It is a real -acting technological thriller With almost one billion dollars at stake, and Lebul is proud to bring it to the world. “The company affirms that the project has already aroused the interest of streaming platforms, global sponsors and relevant figures of the crypto ecosystem. At the moment, however, we do not know what service we could see, if it becomes a reality. “After seeing the documentary, people will understand that it is not crazy” Filming is scheduled for the summer of 2025, with an estimated premiere between October and November. The producer has also confirmed that the story will include the purchase attempt of the landfill, the last judicial failures and the current state of the conflict with the City Council. For Howells, this project represents a unique opportunity: “It is the first time that I will be able to clearly teach what we want to do in the landfill. After seeing the documentary, people will understand that it is not crazy,” told the BBC. The case has caught the attention of dozens of producers over the years. According to Howells himself, He received more than 200 proposalsincluding some winners of the Bafta and the Emmy. Until now he always said it was not the time. The legal battles were open, and the story still had no shape. Lebul’s announcement marks a change. For the first time, its history becomes a media project with calendar, budget and ambitions digital distribution. Is the hard drive really there? Is it still intact after more than a decade underground? Will you keep private … Read more

I have played the ‘Nintendo Switch 2 Welcomme Tour’ thinking that it was a payment manual. It turns out that it is a science museum

by

The presentation of Nintendo Switch 2 In April it was curious. In the event they revealed a lot of details and interesting games that excited the players, but after it, the Batacazo arrived. The console prices, of games and accessories. The monetary hangover lasted a few days and the lace was the ‘Nintendo Switch 2 Welcomo Tour’. This collection of mini -games was like the “manual” of switch 2 … of payment. 9.99 euros, specifically. It is not something I like in the community, but after trying it, I am clear that it is much more than a Nintendo Switch 2 user guide. 1-2 switch. When a console arrives with innovative characteristics, the best way to test them is through demos. With the launch of Switch in 2017Nintendo came up to launch a game that, for 19.99 euros, allowed to experiment with the control infrared sensor, with the HD vibration or with the movement sensors. Called ‘1-2 switch‘, it was curious, but nothing more, and accompanied in the launch of the machine by’ The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild ‘, because little attention was going to monopolize beyond the one granted by curious eyes. Welcome to Switch 2. literally. Nintendo Switch 2 is not that it is the pinnacle of innovation. It is a rather continuous console, than It is just what Nintendo needs After the resounding success of the predecessor, but as they know that many people may want to get on the train of the new switch, they have prepared something similar to ‘1-2 Switch’: ‘Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour’. The problem? That since it was announced, this collection of mini -games to know the technical details of the machine was more like a manual than as a video game. And, worse: a payment manual. I’m already Testing Nintendo Switch 2 for analysisI have mine on the way and what was clear was that this game did not call me or the least. Luckily I had to play it to see how wrong I was. A Science Museum. Because … yes and no. ‘Welcomome Tour’ is the console manual as long as it teaches us all the details of it. We review the command, we review the screen, all the buttons of the Joy-Con and every millimeter of the system and some of its peripherals, but we do it as if we were in a museum. As a child, the museums bored me, but when my parents took me to a Science Museumthe thing changed. That of pulling levers, moving a giant wave, seeing gears and ‘moves’ in motion was something that excited me. And, precisely, that is this game. We chose an avatar, we queue to enter a Nintendo Switch 2 giant and Ale, to explore. Each piece of the system has an information panel that rewards us if we find it, there are mini -games that allow us to explore how certain buttons and modes and also informative panels are used on hardware elements. If we want, we can spend a kind of exam to get prizes and move on the virtual console, and it really is fun. Cheat. At this point, I know how haptic vibration works, I know how the optical sensor allows the joy-with in mouse mode (very precise, by the waybut incompatible with some hands) and they will not discover anything at the technical level of the machine, but without being the target user of this, I have fun collecting the collectibles, and beyond for this test, I will continue playing. I think that, in addition, it can be a very didactic title for all types of audiences that buy the console and want to learn more about it and about technology in general. In addition to enjoying seeing how they explain one thing and, to the second, you can put that into practice. The problem is that … well, there are two problems. And it comes with controversy. One is that you cannot get 100% of the game only with the console and the Joy-Con. There are some mini -games and demonstrations that require a 4K television that can be common in homesbut … there are also those who need the Pro command (90 euros) and the camera (another 60 euros). Nintendo already specifies it in the game website With a “for certain technical demonstrations, additional accessories are required, for sale separately”, but it is curious. Minigame to test the mouse mode And another to experience vibration Oh, the precedents … And the second controversy comes with the price. Not so much for having to pay those 10 euros, but because it will mean a barrier for many people to enjoy this title. With the launch of PlayStation 5Sony included a demo, that of ‘Astro’s Playroom‘. Not only was it a precious tribute to the history of PlayStation, but a really fun platform video game. Liked that their developers had green light to develop a complete game, ‘Astro Bot‘, who ended up taking the award to’ Best Game ‘in the’The Game Awards‘of 2024. ‘Nintendo Switch 2: Welcome Tour’ would have been not only a perfect gift for Nintendo Switch 2 buyers to have something to play as soon as the console should turn on, but also the opportunity for more people to discover this game so curious and ‘cuckoo’ in which a few developers have been working. Because it shows that there is a lot of love in this “payment manual”, but precisely that it is paid and that it looks like a manual is what can be a wall for many users. And it’s not just ‘Asto’s Playroom’: Wii had ‘Wii Sports‘Included, and it was a huge pilar on which The success of the console was cemented.

The house is getting so impossible in Madrid that people are returning to an unexpected place: seseña

by

Real estate markets have their own symbols. For years Seseña was from Lick, The real estate bubble which exploded in 2008. Today is something very different: the housing crisis which faces Madrid (and Spain), which has allowed that ancient ghost city associated with Francisco Hernando‘El Pozero’, being reborn strongly. With prices in climbing And a serious housing deficit In the capital, more and more people look out of Madrid when they have to look for a house, to localities such as ValladolidSegovia … or seseña, where It has resumed construction and arise New promotions residential AND It is not the only “Ghost city” that is gaining impulse thanks to the families expelled from Madrid for a market that increasingly tightens Your pockets. Of brick bubble icon … For years Seseña, especially THE PAU THE QUIÑÓN (The city projected by ‘Paco el Pocero’) was an icon of the years of brick excess and The real estate bubble. Also of his hangover. Those who bought in the middle of the urban maelstrom found a kind of “Ghost Barrio”homes in the hands of banks and a fractured market in which prices did not stop falling. If in 2007 a two bedroom floor cost almost 200,000 euros, seven years later, with the banks desperate to get rid of the properties, it could be bought by less than half: about 60,000 euros. … to enjoy a golden age. Today things are different in Seseña. After years with half -building works and worried For the Okupas, the town is living a new golden age. Families arrive. They open business and services. Projects such as PARQUIJOTE. And they raise New promotions. In 2023 The newspaper He spoke of two major projects: an urbanization of 156 houses that moved between 110,500 and just over 200,000 euros and another of chalets. The change has been cooking for some time. Almost a decade ago The countryHe dedicated him A wide report in which he explained how the residential city the Quiñón was gaining impulse little by little, with families, businesses and services. At that time the newspaper spoke of 6,411 inhabitants. Last year Antena3 again analyzed the situation of the Macro Urbanization Toledana and He found An increase in the number of residents, in addition to a growing demand for housing. “Three years ago you could find a house easily here. Now it is almost impossible,” explained At that time Vanesa, a woman who had installed time before in the Toledo urbanization after buying a four -room house with storage room, garage and pool for about 150,000 euros. Waiting list to buy. The last clue on the rebirth of the urbanization of Seseña gave it A few days ago Reuters, who has found The growing interest by the town. Although it is about 40 kilometers south of the capital and does not have the best connections and public transport, more and more families seem interested in settling in their apartments. Reuters speak With an agency that had a waiting list of 70 people for each home. Seseña (and something else). The area has also seen how the new work was also activated. Promotora Impact Homes, for example, is promoting a promotion of 156 homes which started in 2023. Its goal is to have it ready throughout this year. In the sector there is even talk of presale levels of almost 50% In new buildings. “Seseña is 100%,” celebrates the mayor, Jaime de Hita. His is not the only town in Madrid that has seen how his brick was activated. Something similar It has happened in Valdeluzurbanization located 75 km from Madrid that It was halfway after the outbreak of the real estate bubble. Its mayor wait that the population triggers over the next few years. Reuters appointment even a third example: an urbanization located on the outskirts of Bernuy de Porrerosapproximately 100 kilometers north of Madrid, which has also recovered the activity after remaining almost abandoned. And what is the reason? All these populations have something in common: their relative proximity to Madrid, which makes them an attractive destination for families that end up being expelled from the capital for the high cost of their home. Is The case For example, from Nestor, an employee of the construction sector who four years ago left Carabanchel to move with his family to Seseña. Living in Seseña requires you to get up every day at dawn and take the 6.30 h bus that takes it to the capital, but the price gap makes that discomfort more than assumable. In his day Nestor moved to Seseña because the rentals were there 20% lower than those of Madrid, Explainand a few months ago he decided to take another step and become an owner: together with his wife, he bought an apartment in the Toledo town for 240,000 euros. “We chose this close site because we can pay it. Madrid is very expensive right now,” The man tells. Is it a unique case? No. It comes rapidly to the newspaper library to meet Testimonies of families who have decided to settle in Seseña or professionals in the sector who attend the rebirth of urbanization and its buildings. “They seemed monsters that were going to stand for the future, but the need for housing has caused them to reactivate,” confesses A real estate to Tele5. “We move in prices below 200,000 euros. That is impossible in Madrid.” Money issue (and km). Seseña is not the only town to which the families expelled by the Madrid real estate marketthat only in the last year has seen how housing became more expensive, According to idealist. The improvement (and cheaper) of communications, especially the train, has caused Segovia or even Valladolid being hosting people who work for companies in the capital. In those municipalities they find homes at prices that, such as I recently recognized A family installed in Valladolid, “Nor would they smell” in Madrid.
