A change of players is already discussed, according to Politico

by

Europe has looked at the sky urgently. The great new generation hunting project, the FCASlaunched in 2017, advances in a continent that faces increasingly complex security challenges and, nevertheless, enters a delicate phase. Berlin has put on the table that, if there is no agreement before the end of the year, it will study alternatives that change the photo of the program, According to politician. Spain, project partner, observes a moving board that could alter its weight in the program. France, Germany and Spain are the three pillars of the FCAS, each with an industrial partner of reference: Dassault, Airbus and Indra. The ultimate goal is to reach 2040 with a system capable of replacing current fighters and making a interoperability jump in Europe. But between that starting point and the goal is opened a permanent negotiation on who leads, what technology is shared and how the work is distributed. That debate, more political than technical, conditions each progress of the program. From plane to collaborative network. FCAS is committed to a collaborative combat model in which the tripled hunting coexists with drones and remote carriers. Coordination will arrive through a Combat Clouda cloud that ensures safe high -speed communications and that connects with other systems, from satellites to ships or units on land. Airbus is co-leader of the program and leads pillars such as the Remote Carriers and the Combat Cloud, in addition to being the main partner of the NGF demonstrator, while indrating reinforces the Spanish role in areas such as connectivity and technological integration. GCAP, the other great program. In front of the continental commitment of the FCAS, the Global Combat Air Program (GCAP) brings together Italy, the United Kingdom and Japan around a different philosophy. Its manned plane is conceived as a “quarterback”, a coordinator capable of leading formations and orchestrating operations along with drones and other systems. The design is based on five payload pillars: armament, sensors, connectivity, non -kinetic capabilities and computing. According to its promoters, it does not intend to replace the F-35but to complement it and ensure that allied forces have an advanced node in very disputed environments. Italy, the United Kingdom and Japan boost the GCAP, a sixth generation program centered on global interoperability One of the main friction points is how the work is distributed. The expected thing was a balanced scheme between France, Germany and Spain, but in Berlin the information published by specialized means according to which Dassault claimed up to 80% of the load of the load of the load of the load of the load of the NGWS. The French company has denied italthough he insists that he needs more decision margin to avoid delays. Germany defends that the contract must be fulfilled and that the distribution remains equitable, while Spain aligns with that same position. Plan B in Berlin. German frustration translates into discreet movements to explore alternatives. According to the aforementioned media, the Ministry of Defense raised Airbus the possibility of opening the project to Sweden, relying on Saab’s experience with influen’s, or even the United Kingdom, leading the GCAP. Another option is to advance from the hand of Spain if France remains row. The German Air Force, the Luftwaffe, has reported these debates to the Bundestag, the Federal Parliament, where it is already warned that the decision to continue or not with the FCAS cannot be delayed much more. The FCAS seeks a European collaborative combat system with fighters, drones and fully integrated military cloud What is Spain played. The Spanish contribution is channeled through Indrawhich seeks to strengthen its role in critical technologies of the program. In public, Berlin has remarked that he maintains full coincidence with Madrid in the distribution of work and the vision of the project. The tuning was staged last week, on September 28, when Pedro Sánchez and Friedrich Merz appeared together in La Moncloa and The German president referred to FCAS in response to a press question. The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, and the German Chancellor, Friedrich Merz, at a joint conference on September 18 “We share the opinion that the current situation is not satisfactory because we do not advance. The two (Merz and Sánchez) are talking to the French government and we both want as soon as possible that a solution is reached. There is an agreement between France, Germany and Spain on this project. We both know that we need this type of project, but we cannot continue as it is being done now.” Three scenarios on the table. According to the aforementioned medium, the immediate future of the FCAS is played between three paths. The first, reach an agreement with France to unlock governance and move on to the next phase. The second, to open the door to new partners such as Sweden or the United Kingdom, with everything that would imply in terms of integration and overlapping of programs. The third, to advance with a small nucleus in which Germany and Spain assume leadership if Paris remains firm. Each option implies different industrial and political risks. The next few weeks will be decisive. In October A meeting is scheduled of defense ministers of Spain, Germany and France to review the status of the program. All eyes will also be placed in the French representative. If you drive a commitment to Airbus, the FCAS may advance; If not, the alternatives already outlined by Germany will charge more strength.

His startups are born thinking of global

by

Factorial announced a few days ago that It has already reached 100 million dollars of recurring annual incomebecoming one of the twenties Scaleups European that achieve this figure in the last decade. The human resources startup founded in Barcelona by Jordi Romero, Bernat Farrero and Pau Ramon already serves more than 14,000 companies in ten countries. Why is it important. This figure marks a change of mentality in the Spanish ecosystem. For many years, the country startups have focused on the domestic market of 48 million inhabitants (since this year already 49), Treating international expansion as an optional second step. Factorial is different: since 2019 he thought of global, not local. “We are equally ready, handsome, high and strong anywhere in the world,” Its founders have said. A phrase that summarizes the new attitude: Spain as a trampoline, not as a final destination. In perspective. Other recent cases reinforce this trend: Lingokids He has raised 120 million dollars to climb his global educational product. Ultralyticswith headquarters in Madrid and London, it processes 2,000 million daily inferences in 200 countries. Wallboxborn in Barcelona, ​​quotes in New York and sells electric loaders in more than 80 markets, although it has been collapsing for years. Jobandtalent It has expanded strongly in the United Kingdom and the United States After consolidating in Spain. Glovo demonstrated the ability of a Spanish startup to expand to dozens of countries in record time, although it is in the hands of Delivery Hero. There are also less brilliant examples, such as Faver, today turned into a global reference of entertainment, which failed in his first attempt to internationalization and had to forward his strategy before growing again. Cases that show that going out soon is an opportunity, but also a risk. The context. Talking about the “49 million” is to fall short: it is not only the size of the market, but its fragmentation. Climbing a B2B product in Spain is to face regulatory barriers, client dispersion and a purchasing power lower than that of the greats hubs Europeans There is the difference with markets such as Germany, France or the United Kingdom, where many startups can grow at home before going outside. In that sense, Spain is approaching the logic of small countries where unicorns proliferate, such as Lithuania (Vinted, Nordvpn) or Norway (Opera, Remarkable), forced to be born global. Between the lines. The change goes beyond the strategy. It is a mental revolution that leaves behind the “Spanish imposter syndrome”. In 2000 and 2010, success used to be selling a foreign buyer (such as Tuenti to Telefónica either Social Point A Take-Two). Today, the horizon is different: Maintain independence. Quote in the bag. Become buyers instead of acquired. Factorial has rejected purchase offers and plans to reach 1,000 million income without selling. The threat. This new ambition also uncovers the shortcomings of the ecosystem. They are needed … Funds capable of leading rounds of 50 or 100 million. An international talent that still does not flow with the same ease of Madrid or Barcelona as towards London or Berlin. And a investment culture more willing to assume long -term risk. The Spanish venture capital market has grown, but is still limited to the hubs Dominants from Europe. Deepen. Spain, however, has structural advantages to sustain this turn: Spanish connects with 500 million speakers and opens a natural bridge to Latin America. The geographical position places the country as a hinge between Europe and America. Talent costs remain competitive in front of large European centers (Aka “We are cheaper”). In a world where teleworking allows you to attract engineers and managers from anywhere, Spain can become an attractive pole not only to create, but to retain global companies. At stake. The turn to the global is a change of role for Spain in the digital economy. Spain can become an exporter of technology with a global influence capacity, or resign to remain an acquisition nursery for foreign multinationals. The difference will be made by the maturity of its venture capital, the ability to attract and retain international talent and the ambition of its founders. Factorial and its contemporaries have shown that it is possible, now it remains to be seen if they will be exception or precedent.

Bugatti has got to work

by

The automobile luxury industry bases a good part of Your business in maintaining an offer contained to maintain the value of both new cars and Those who are already in the market. Therefore, it is not strange that manufacturers no longer meet to offer their clients the option of customize serial models With unique OA options Create limited editions: They prefer to create unique unrepeatable vehicles from scratch. Bugatti has joined this new trend with the launch of the Solitaire program, a new department within Bugatti that will be responsible for designing and manufacturing exclusive and unrepeatable cars that will be sold by stratospheric prices. Its first foray into this market: the Bugatti Bouillard, a hyperdeportivo valued at more than 30 million dollars. Fever of unrepeatable cars He “Tuneo” of luxury cars It has become a very very profitable business for supercars and luxury cars. Rolls-Royce, for example, allows its customers CUSTOMS CUSTOMS And success has led the brand to expand its factory in the United Kingdom to respond to the strong demand for custom orders. Along the same lines, Bugatti has also confirmed that the buyers of their cars invest an average of 500,000 euros In extra options for cars you buy, a figure that can exceed the base car itself. Ferrari and Lamborghini are not missing this fever for having unique cars, even with their serial models, letting their buyers personalize them to the slightest detail. However, although this customization capacity It can be sufficient for most customers, a small number of ultra -ups have climbed one more step and now demand those who call “One Off”: unique and unrepeatable cars that do not enter the production chain, but are exclusive pieces and very sought after collectors. Brands such as Lamborghini have presented exclusive artisanal projects under the Unique Opera Concept. Now Bugatti has done the same with Solitaire program and the debut of his prima opera: the Bugatti Bruillard. Bugatti Brouillard’s debut The Bugatti Brouillard is the first fruit of the Solitaire program that sees the light. It is a hyperdeportivo equipped with the already known W16 engine of 1,600 hp and four turbocharger, shared with models such as Chiron and Mistral. Its construction combines aluminum and carbon fiber, with the aim of optimizing structural rigidity and reducing weight. The design is based on the Mistral Bugatti, but introduces unique original elements: horizontal LED lines on the front, dark bumper and a rear part dominated by the illuminated registration of Bugatti between arrow -shaped pilots. The fixed glass ceiling reinforces the hallmark of the brand with the central spine in sight. Every detail of the Bougatti Bouillard reinforces the idea that it is not one more car, but An unrepeatable piece. Inside, materials such as green carbon fiber, mechanized aluminum and leather with tartan details are combined. The seats are not designed in series, but are molded according to customer tastes and measures. Among the most unique pieces is the gear lever, which incorporates a glass insert with the figure of a miniature horse. This artisanal wink turns the lever into a collector’s work inside the cabin. According to Bugatti, these projects do not seek so much to create a car and provide the client with the experience of being part of the development of a unique object with artistic value. Thanks to the 30 million dollars (more than 26 million euros to the current exchange) that each of these units costs, Bugatti can afford to manufacture two unique creations such as the Bruillard a year under this program.

Byd has the future of buses in their hands and they are bad news for European brands

by

Throughout the last years we have seen how the automobile industry has revolved around the conquest of multiple Chinese manufacturers looking for a piece of cake in Europe. Byd has been Great participant in this situationbut we still have something to say. And is that the Chinese giant recently presented his new E-Bus Platform Platform 3.0with the promise of also revolutionizing the public transport industry. The highlight: 1,000 volt technology and batteries integrated directly in the chassis, a formula that seeks to lead in the sector. Byd buses. The new platform incorporates for the first time in the bus sector A 1,000 volt systemthe same as Byd already uses Tang Ev and Han Ev in its electric cars. This allows ultra -grape loads that would drastically reduce stop times, something key if we talk about public transport operations. In addition, integrate batteries LFP Blade directly in the chassis, which promises a lower ground and a better use of space. The figures. The first model based on this platform, the Byd C11, offers battery configurations from 184 to 593 kWh, with autonomies ranging from 220 to 730 kilometers according to the Chinese cycle. To put this in perspective, it is an autonomy that far exceeds the majority of current European electric buses. According to Bydthe C11 “has an autonomy exceeding 400 kilometers with full load and air conditioning.” Cars technology. Byd has moved innovations of its car division to public transport, including the DISUS-A adaptive suspension system and a sophisticated thermal management system 7 in 1. The platform also incorporates Driver Assistance System 2.0 and an intelligent torque control system (ITAC), in addition to security functions such as an emergency stop button and stability control in case of a tire count. At the moment, only in China. Byd advances by leaps and hungry, while European bus manufacturers such as Mercedes, Man, Volvo or Scania bet on incremental evolutions of their existing platforms. On the other hand, Byd does not sell cars in the United States, but it has been making electric buses in California Since 2013which shows that its buse division also has the capacity to adapt to the western public. A touch of attention. The E-Bus Platform 3.0 promises a significant leap with respect to previous platforms. In addition, the company assures which offers a reduction in energy consumption of 18% and an increase in autonomy in low temperatures of 50 to 80 kilometers. With the great presence of ByD in public transport in other regions, this new platform is a warning that the Chinese manufacturer can, at any time, call the European public transport market door, and perhaps with the same force as with its cars.

If we want to know how climate change will affect the Pyrenees, you should not look at heat or level. You have to study the caves

by

Sometimes we have already talked about the threat that climate change supposes for the Pyrenees, for their ecological balance and for one of the key elements in the economy of the region, skiing. The mountainous regions are vulnerable areas in the face of changes in the weather, but to discover how we do not have to look at their snow, but in their stones. 16,500 years. A new study He has studied The evolution of temperatures in the surroundings of the Pyrenees during the last 16,500 years. The study allows us to establish a correspondence between the evolution of temperatures on this natural border of the Iberian Peninsula and the evolution of the climate in other regions of the world. Almost seven degrees. One of the details emphasized by the study responsible for the study is a sharp change in the temperature of the region registered about 14,600 years: an increase of about 6.7º Celsius (with a margin of error of about 2.8º) in the temperature of the mountainous environment. This increase in temperatures corresponds to a change in the climate of the northern hemisphere that occurred during the same era and has a counterpoint: a decrease of more than six degrees occurred almost two millennia later, about 12,800 years ago, during the event known as Younger Dryastowards the end of the last glacier period. This increase in temperatures corresponds to a change in the climate of the northern hemisphere that occurred during the same era and has a counterpoint: a decrease of more than six degrees that occurred almost two millennia later, about 12,800 years ago, during the event known as Younger Dryas, towards the end of the last glacier period. Analyzing stalagmites. The study was conducted by applying A new technique It allows to extract new climatic data from the incursions of water trapped in stalagmites, the mineral deposits that are formed in numerous tests, similar to the stalactites but whose growth occurs from the bottom up. The analysis was carried out in two caves of Ostolo and Mendukilo, in the north of Navarra. According to The team stands out Responsible for the study, the new analysis allows us to “not only identify the qualitative temperature changes of the last 16,500 years, but also to offer quantitative numbers of these variations with high chronological precision.” The details of the study have been published In an article In the magazine Climate of the past. Learn for the future. The new study is proof that our environment responds “quickly and synchronized” to changes in the global climate and also does so in relatively short time scales. This can help us to prevent the local impacts of future changes in the weather with greater precision, something of unique importance in an environment already vulnerable to these alterations. “Know how the climate in the past It helps us to better understand what can happen in the future in the face of similar disturbances. So that the future predictions of the climatic models are as robust as possible need data from the past to understand how the climate has worked in the face of phenomena such as the thermhaline circulation stop or previous increases in CO2 ”, stood out in a press release Ana Moreno, co -author of the study.

The controversy in Asturias for the renowned peoples in Asturian language

by

Orlé is one small population of the Council of Casein the Principality of Asturias, of Luenga History and leafy landscapes. For a few years, however, he is immersed in A controversy As peculiar as Espinosa: their neighbors want the place where they live continues to be ‘Orlé’, the name they have been using a lifetime and have learned from their parents and grandparents, not ‘Orllé’, which is the one in A decree which pretends to protect traditional toponymy. The debate is served. What happened? That Orlé He doesn’t want to be ‘Orllé’, but ‘Orlé’. It sounds like macarronic tongue, but in reality it is the summary of a controversy that It has been for years Undouncing the residents of a small parish of the Case Council, in the region of Nalón, Principality of Asturias. At the root of the controversy is a decision that affects something so symbolic, so sensitive (even sacred) as the name of the population. The locals defend that it is ‘Orlé’, but that has not prevented the administration from having chosen the ‘Orllé’ alternative. Where does the problem come from? To understand it you have to go back a few years agoto 2007, when the regional government published A decree with the list of official place names for the case council. There it is clarified that what until now was known above all as ‘Orlé’ would be called ‘Orllé’. In The documentthat reviews the names of the different populations of the municipality, it is clarified that the objective is the “recovery and fixation of the Asturian toponymy” as part of a greater effort to promote the bable language. The Principality of Asturias also emphasizes that the changes are not the result of the whim or are imposed overnight. The decree Part of the Toponymy Advisory Board (JAT), which issued a proposal to the City Council so that it could make observations. However, despite that long processing, the official change of ‘Orlé’ by ‘Orllé’ does not conform to what the neighbors believe it is fair: that the area continues to be called as (insist) He has always done it. But … how was it possible? In A column published in 2024 in New Spainthe representative of the neighbors, Ana Álvarez, denounces that the change was managed in a “poor” way and that the initial proposal that was presented to the case council included “several strange names to the sociolinguistic reality” of the town. For example, ‘Guspriz’ by Buspriz or ‘Ñeves’ by ‘Nieves’. “The majority were subsequently corrected, but ‘Orllé’ was not rectified because the rural parish of Orlé was not summoned to participate in the file formation sessions, nor did the final file be transferred,” Álvarez says. “The neighbors were not consulted, remaining others until, with the population of the decree, Orlé ceased to be the official name of this people.” What did the neighbors do? In addition to gathering to discuss the issue, go to the press and record their deep discomfort, the people of Orlé decided to move card in the offices: he asked the City Council (in which they are framed) to begin the procedures to recover the traditional name of the population and the proposal rose to the Ministry of Culture, Linguistic Policy and Tourism. The problem is that your claim does not seem to have advanced much. In October 2022 The locals already showed their anger for not having received any official response “after nine months of waiting” and Last July They insisted that they were still waiting for a resolution, although they had presented all their historical, sociolinguistic and legal arguments before the JAT. Why is it news? Because the neighbors have made it clear that they are fed up. Although in Orlé They don’t get to hundred of registered, over the weekend part of them starred A performance To make clear (once again) with what name they feel identified: they gathered in a meadow and drawn with their bodies the name of ‘Orlé’ and then taking an aerial photo. At the entrance of the town they have also put a sign in which it can be read “thanks for saying Orlé”, although in reality it is not quite necessary if it is taken into account that someone has gone further and has labeled the signal of the official place name: “Orllé”. Apart from the claims at street level, A few months ago The parish brought its arguments directly to the Toponymy Board. Click on the image to go to Tweet. And what do they argue? Basically, the origin of the ‘Orlé’ name can be traced eight centuries agountil the times of King Alfonso IX, so they consider him “a genuinely Asturian place name.” On the contrary, it happens in his opinion with the ‘Orllé’ form. “It is not a traditional way, because it is not present in the popular speech of the neighbors and the elderly state that even their grandparents have ever used it. Nor does it appear in any historical text. It is only a residual and external variant to the people,” They argue The residents. In case all that was not enough They assure that if at any time ‘Orllé’ has been used to refer to the area has been “with a pejorative spirit.” “To prove that it is not used at all in Orlé, it would be enough to speak with its neighbors and about the mocking use of the toponym ‘Orllé’”, coincides Juan Manuel Estrada, Official Chronicler of the case council. So things, neighbors They assure that the change goes against the initial objective with which it was promoted: protect local toponymy. Is it the only argument? At all. There are those who argue that ‘Orllé’ is not a way out of nowhere and slides that a possible solution is to use the double place name Orllé/Orllé. This was remembered last year in New Spain Ramón D´Andrés, linguist and member of the Academy of the Asturian Llinggua. In A broad article The expert argues … Read more

It’s why there are so many people trying

by

His name is Alexander Chusov, he is native of the Moscow brain and, as they count on Associated Pressjust shattered the largest pumpkin record ever cultivated in the country. 969 kilos of pumpkin to be exact. And the question that is asked now half the world is not how the hell it is possible to cultivate a pumpkin of a ton, but something even more basic: why do it? And the answer is more curious than it seems. “It is a scientific job.” Or so I explained it Chusov himself. Not only had he carefully selected the seeds, but had built a special greenhouse (with heating in the floor and in the air) and has been calibrating “with great precision” the “nutritional and risk needs of pumpkin”. But perhaps more than tracing a parallel with “science” it is better to draw it with “sport.” Yes, yes. With sport. Because, although The idea is of Daria Yermilovaorganizer of the Giant Vegetable Contest in Moscow, it has all the meaning of the world. For more than a decade, giant vegetable competitions They raise passions In different parts of the world. Giant vegetable competitions? Although they are tremendously popular in the Anglo -Saxon world, the strength of competitions such as Moscow shows that the fond of Pantagruélica horticulture grows worldwide. In fact, if we are thorough, we can verify that Chusov’s pumpkin is not (or far) the pumpkin larger than has been cultivated in Europe In recent years. In 2024, Mario Vangeel swept the European pumpkins championship held every year in LuisBurg with A copy of 1,152 kilograms. What does a thousand kilos pumpkin know? Nothing. That may be the most curious. Giant pumpkin varieties that are usually used in this type of competitions are not cultivated by their flavor. These varieties have a very high water content: that is what allows them to grow so much, but also what makes it completely tasteless. For years We have been complaining that many vegetables (And especially tomatoess) They had been genetically selected to improve their appearance and productivity to the detriment of their flavor. What we are in the world of competition vegetables is this, but raised to the nth power. It is an obsessive career to find the greatest vegetables and vegetables at what it costs. In the Sidamon pumpkin contestIn Lleida, you can see this same weekend live and direct. Behind every circus … There is an important lesson: that nature has an almost infinite capacity to change shapes and colors. That is, behind the world’s largest pumpkin there is a message of hope.

It is a fantasy created by a Russian television

by

Russia has just discovered how to add Anything else More epic to LaLiga. The chain Match! TVin the hands of Gazprom Mediahas decided to promote broadcasts of the Spanish tournament among its users in a peculiar way: with A minute and a half video elaborated with the in which each club is assigned a particular avatar. The models and references to each hobby change, but everyone shares something: large doses of epic that sometimes touch the delusional. Emotion ‘Made in Russia’. What happened? That LaLiga has triggered her epic at new levels with the help of an unexpected ally: Russia. Russia and the artificial intelligence To be precise. As part of its promotion of the Spanish competition the Russian sports chain Match! TV (Матч! Т), owned by Gazprom Mediahe has made a video of a minute and a half with which each club shows in an original way. Instead of including players, stadiums, fans or fragments of matches shows avatars associated with each shield. All with their good dose of epic. Sports Alavés. The Athletic Club of Bilbao. Atlético de Madrid. FC Barcelona. The Betis. Pets ‘Made in Russia’? More or less. In the video you can see how each club has its own avatar, built with winks to the symbols of the equipment or their cities. In many cases the promo pulls directly from club pets. In others it makes a reinterpretation at least curious. For example, Athletic represents it as a lion (expected) With the Guggenheim in the background, in the case of Barça a cat appears (a reference to Cat?) Before the sacred family and when it is the turn of Valencia teaches A bat With the shield. More curious are the cases of Villareal CF, Betis or Celta de Vigo. When it’s the first (Villareal) the video does not show us GROGUETthe pet of the Castellón club, but a new interpretation of the ‘yellow submarine’: a kind of sophisticated diver with a submersible behind. In the case of Betis, a man with leaves appears in the head in an exotic rereading of Palmerín. Even more striking is the case of the Galician club. For Celta, promoted an eagle with the chest shield that raises a sword in the middle of a cliff. Maybe a nod to ‘Nocho’a pet presented in the mid -90s, although more than an eagle was a seagull with Viking helmet. For the Osasuna, the Russian chain imposed on the refiers to the enclosures and in the case of RCD Espanyol preferred not to complicate with (expected too) A huge parakeet. Valencia CF. The Villarreal. The Girona. The RCD Mallorca. The Oviedo FC. The Osasuna. The ray. Real Madrid. Are there more cases? Yes. For Real Oviedo the Russian chain has not opted for the pet Clawbut for a muscular warrior with an ax in his hand, the Vallecano ray is represented by a bee (Pica Pica muscular) and Real Madrid is a straight monarch dressed in white, with a crown and a orb-box in the hands. The Royal Society is a version of the official shield, a ball with a crown and a body (apparently) sculpted in the same gym as the rest of avatars; For Getafe CF a wink is launched to Pachón monkey And a ape with glasses that scribbles on a scroll is chosen and in the case of Elche opts for a modern (and very particular) reinterpretation of the Lady of Elche. In the case of Sevilla, the avatar is a barber with a razor and a ball tattooed in La Calva, the Girona An insect (Sisa?) And Mallorca a Resonated On the beach. Real Sociedad Sevilla. The Celta de Vigo. The Getafe. Elche. Espanyol. The Levante. Have you done it alone with Spain? No. LaLiga’s promotional video is hung on The official profile of Match TV on Instagram, where a similar piece can also be seen with Italian teams. If some avatars surprise in Spain, there is something similar with clubs such as Sassuolo. Both pieces also share two other things: the tone and especially their great, huge, dose of epic.

The weirdest thing that Mark Zuckerberg was carrying in his presentation of the Ray-Ban Meta Display were not the glasses

by

During the last goal presentation, the brand revealed its new technology of connected glasses. On stage, Mark Zuckerberg made a master of ceremonies presenting in the first person the new glasses and did so equipped with the Integrated screen glassesas well as with the bracelet in your right hand that captures the movements of your fingers to control the functions of the glasses.
