Berlin is the headquarters of the IFA again and, on this occasion, Dreame has taken advantage of the event to present A complete product line For the home. Next to them, it should be noted that also They have presented Its new generation of vacuum robots, and among them it is worth commenting on the capabilities of the new Matrix10 Ultra. And it is that according to the brand, it incorporates the first station capable of automatically changing between different types of mopa according to the needs of each stay. A station that changes from the mopa according to what you need The main innovation of the Matrix10 Ultra resides in its base station, which according to me can house up to three different types of mopa. The system promises to automatically select the most appropriate for each surface: Nylon Moves to remove fat in the kitchen, sponge mops with higher water retention for the bathroom, and thermal mines for the rest of the rooms, maintaining, according to the company, a constant temperature to optimize cleaning. That the aspirator robot automatically allows changing from the mop seeks to solve one of the usual problems of Friegasuelos robots: cross pollution between different areas of the house. And it is that by automatically changing from the mop, the robot would avoid dragging the kitchen waste into the living room to the bedrooms. Three solutions for different needs In addition to the Move change system, the station incorporates what DREAME calls “three solutions compartment.” This system allows you to use Specific products for different situations: one designed to eliminate pet odors, another for the care of wood soils, and a third for general cleaning. After completing the cleaning of each area, the robot returns to its base to change the mop used by the appropriate one for the next stay. The station is in charge of cleaning the pocket at 100 ° C and drying them with hot air, as specified by the brand. Improved power and navigation The ultra matrix10 also incorporates improvements in its suction system, with a suction power that Reach 30,000 pa According to me. The robot has the Hyperstream Detling Duobrush brush system, which combines a rubber brush with bristles to remove dust and another TPU rubber to lift carpets, automatically rising on smooth surfaces to save energy. As for navigation, the company ensures that the updated proleap system and the Triple-Wheel Agilift chassis allow the robot to overcome obstacles up to 8 centimeters high. The Versalift function is designed to navigate low furniture, while the Tüv Low Noise Cleaning certificate guarantees silent operation. Availability and price Dreame has announced that the Matrix10 Ultra will be available in Spain from September 24 in black and white colors, with a price of 1,599 euros. The company will offer a discount of 200 euros during the first week in which it is put on sale. This new model is part of a broader range that also includes models Aqua10 Ultra With fresh water technology and the Ultra Cyber10, which according to the brand is the first high -end robot of the world equipped with bionic arm.

apps that organize the appointment directly

by

Our attention is the most precious good for the apps that we have on the mobile. Instagram and Tiktokthe Chatbots of AI… Virtually any app wants to hook us and appointment apps were not going to be less. Tinder converted the search for a couple (or what arises) into an infinite swipe with endless profiles to do Match. However, it seems that the format of offering the more options the better is being exhausted and there are more apps that opt ​​for the contrary: take control and decide for you. The app decides. Until recently, most appointments opted for the Tinder format, but recently new proposals are emerging with a different approach: instead of being the user who spent hours sailing, chatting and looking for their Match Perfect, it is the app who takes control and decides for you. It sounds good, although as they count on the New York Timessome are stopped. Breeze. “A match means an instant appointment,” Breezean app developed in Holland that has already made the leap to more European countries (in Spain not yet) some areas of the United States. Every day, the app sends you a selection of people who may like it and, if you match someone, the app will check the availability of both and arrange an appointment. If you do not accept appointments, in the end they freeze your account. There is not everything left, they also focus on security verifying all users and ensure appointments are carried out in bars that are associated with the app. Breeze is free, but if you get appointments you will have to pay. Near. Oriented to gene generation, the approach of Near It is finding appointments with your friends’s friends. As? Forcing you to share all your contacts if you want to join. The idea is that quotes occur between people with nearby circles, not among strangers. Thus, those mutual friends can give you information and corroborate that your link “is trustworthy.” With this idea, close wants to end practices such as Ghosting since “your reputation is at stake.” It is only Available for iPhone. CUFFED. This app is committed to exclusivity. In Cupd you can only have one match at the same time so that both people are only chatting with each other and not with several at the same time. There are more, only the members can enter and that is only achieved if the app accepts you or if you get a referred code. Once inside, you are obliged to pay the premium subscription, whose prices go from 14.99 to $ 79.99. The Tinder format loses bellows. Having many options is not always good. In apps such as Tinder or Bumble it is easy to get tired of reading profiles, keeping empty conversations and even having appointments. The use data confirmed it: last year we talk about Tinder was losing usersespecially those who paid for Tinder Plus or Gold. After nine years of growth, In 2024 Bumble began to lose users. It seems that the trend is clear. ‘Dating fatigue’. Appointment apps face what is known as ‘Dating fatigue’or what is the same: that it gives you laziness to link. According to data from a Survey by Forbes78% of US appointment apps users admit to being tired of using them. Before a model that seems to be starting its decline, the new models such as those of these apps have an opportunity to highlight. Or even The not so new.

an atmospheric river threatens to await us the end of this week

by

A last Sunday for water. This is what awaits many areas of the Peninsula, according to experts’ predictions. The reason is on the arrival of a storm and an associated atmospheric river, a couple that has crossed the Atlantic to bring us the tropical moisture of the Caribbean to the doors of Europe. The return of the rain. Meteorological models advance the arrival of an atmospheric river to the western coast of the Peninsula. The forecasts of Meteored They point out that the arrival would occur between the last hours of Saturday and the beginning of Sunday. The river will come accompanied by a storm That, although it moves in higher latitudes, it will leave its mark on our meteorology due to the arrival of an associated front. An atmospheric river. But what exactly is this of the Atmospheric River? Atmospheric rivers, or moisture rivers, are meteorological structures that are characterized by covering elongated extensions in low troposphereloading them with moisture that is dragged between humid tropical areas and subrtropical latitudes. This implies that these events are of great route, both in space and in time: this humidity can travel thousands of kilometers over several days. Atmospheric rivers not only occur between the American tropics and Europe: a phenomenon like this He is also recurringfor example, in the Eastern Pacific, and is responsible for carrying rainfall from the center of the ocean to the west coast of North America. A current in intense jet. The arrival of these transoceanic events is driven by a strengthened stream current. This fortune of atmospheric current facilitates the transit of this type of phenomena throughout the Atlantic Ocean, bringing them direct to our neighborhoods. The calm before the storm. Until then, the forecasts indicate that rainfall will remain in the east of the peninsula, and that we could even see a rebound in the temperatures associated with the proximity of The storm and his associated front. The forecasts of the State Meteorology Agency (Aemet) also talk about the passage of the Atlantic Front during the last day of the week, with “rainfall in the northwest third that, less likely, can be accompanied by storms and can affect the rest of the northwest half.” Uncertainty, for now. We will have to wait to know how the passage of this front will evolve. The predictions of the European Center for Middle Term weather forecasts (ECMWF) They point that the rains could be maintained in some areas of the Peninsula, especially in the northern third. Aemet monthly predictions indicate A somewhat more humid week than usual in some isolated areas of the country, something that could be reversed in the middle of September.

60 years ago Singapore lived an alarming housing crisis. Today almost all of its inhabitants have their own home

by

Singapore is a constrained nation, rich and with one Huge concentration of population, ingredients that a priori invite you to think about a complicated residential market. His most iconic image is in fact that of a ‘skyline’ drawn by huge and brand new skyscraper. However, despite the fact that it has not been oblivious to market reheatingthe city-state presents a curious peculiarity: a overwhelming majority of its population resides in homes promoted by the State and the country has one of the biggest Property rates of the world. His model has fascinates experts for years. A unique country. It is not that the real estate market of Singapore is special, is that it is the nation itself. If it had to be defined with three adjectives, they would be small, concentrated and prosperous. The city-state is barely 720 km2 And he welcomes just over six million people, so that his population density is around 8,200 people/square kilometer. These data make the island nation one of The most concentrated of the planet, behind Macao and Monaco. If we talk about per capita income, an indicator of population wealth, Singapore also sneaks into the top of international rankings. In fact, he heads Asia’s list and stands out on the world map. According to The data which manages the US administration, at least last year there were only two nations that exceed it (both small): Monaco and Liechtenstein. The city-state also stands out for Your concentration of millionaires. Singapore’s paradox. If the country’s economic and demographic data are curious those of its real estate market are no less. Especially because, as he pointed out In March Wei Low In an analysis published in Bloomberg, the city-state presents a “paradox.” Singapore is not cheap for real estate professionals, but at the same time it is surprisingly affordable for its inhabitants, which seem to have no problems when acquiring a house. Does not lead the List of countries With a higher housing property rate, but it is appearing in the upper part of the table, with a percentage much higher than that of Spain. Here the Bank of Spain (BE) Calculate that the percentage of households owned by their main house The European average It was slightly lower, of 69.7%, a percentage that brings together, however realities so disparate such as Romania (96.1%) or Denmark (59.3%). First percentage: 90%. In the case of Singapore the analysts They usually point that the property rate is around 90%. That The reference that is handled from Wei or the one that collects the Trading Economics platform, which Precise that the average property rate in the city-stated between 1980 and 2024 was 89.2%. The last indicator (of 2023) would be 90.8%, a few points below the maximum of 93.1% scored at the beginning of the century. Such a percentage has made often analysts are done a question: How have Singapore managed to reach a rate of ownership of the housing so surprisingly high? Second percentage: 80%. The above is much better understood when knowing Another indicatorequally striking: it is calculated that More than 80% of the population of the country resides in apartments built by the State, which also controls an overwhelming part of the territory. In 2018 Abhas JHA, Urban Development Manager and Risk Management of the World Bank, I calculated that 90% of the land were owned by the administration, almost double that in the 60s. During the same period, between the 7th and the present, the property rate He also shot. Three letters: HDB. To understand these percentages, we must know the recent history of Singapore and especially the origins of one of its fundamental organisms at real estate, HDB, the acronym in English of Housing and Development Board. In the late 50s, when the city-state reached its self -governmentthe Singaporenses authorities met A challenge Capital: its housing park had not grown alongside that the population of Chinese, bad and Indian immigrants, which translated into overcrowding and illegal populations. To solve that pressing “Residential Crisis” In 1960, HDB was created, an organism that was launched with a strong support of the government. In three years he had built 21,000 homes, a couple of years later the figure amounted to 54,000 and after a decade it resulted in the crisis. The result, highlights the organism itself On its websiteIt is that today “about 80% of the population of Singapore resides in HDB homes in 24 cities and three urbanizations.” As a reference, at the beginning of the 1960s only a small part of the Singapurenses (about 9%) resided in houses of public origin. Government graph explaining the sales system to 99 years. One date: 1964. In the residential chronicle of Singapore there is, however, another even more important date, such as remember Bloomberg Agency: 1964. That year the administration decided to offer subsidiary apartments for sale as part of the program ‘Housing access plan for the people’an initiative aimed at medium-low-income families who wish to acquire their own home. Since then the country has continued to polish the system, creating a mechanism that has favors for more than 30 years the mixture of ethnic groups (Chinese, Malays or Indians) to prevent them from forming in the small city “Racial enclaves” and a program that encourages the modernization and reform of the housing park. “Being a home owned citizens a tangible asset and a participation in the construction of the nation. There are more than one million HDB houses, in which 80% of the resident households reside. Of them, nine out of ten are owners of their homes,” stands out The Singapore government. How does the system work? There is an important detail. As remember Administration, The majority From HDB homes are sold with a 99 -year -old lease contract, a formula that, Reason the Government“satisfies the needs of the owners and their children while guaranteeing the rehabilitation of land and building construction.” The formula is not exclusive to the city. In Hong Kong there are also … Read more

Here the Galaxy Tab S11 reduce that diagonal significantly Until 11 inches, which also makes its weight significantly reduced to 469 grams. It is a much more patent difference with the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra, which maintain the 14.6 inches of the last year of last year, and that have a weight of 692 grams. In both cases we will continue to have ultradelgated tablets. In fact, the thickness of the ultra last year was 5.6 mm, but here Samsung has done a notable technical exercise and has managed to reduce that thickness to 5.1 mm. In the case of the standard Tab S11 the thickness is 5.5 mm, also somewhat lower than that of the S10+ last year. The specially remarkable and fact specification sheet highlights the presence of Soc Medatek Dimensity 9400+Manufactured with 3 nm photolithography. They are accompanied by up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of storage according to version, which makes these tablets true computation beasts capable of both offering great possibilities in productivity as well as when enjoying video games. AMOLED screens propose an outstanding visual experience thanks to their standard 1,000 nits brightness (with 1,600 nits peaks) and enviable resolutions. In those screens we also have fingerprint sensor. The sound section is also well assorted: we have four speakers With AKG technology that have Dolby Atmos sound support. The battery is also promising on both devices, and both can load with a fast charge of 45 W. The Wi-Fi 7 connectivity (Wi-Fi 6e in the S11) and the option to choose models with 5G connectivity is also a guarantee in these models that also provide microSD slot for cards of up to 2 TB. The Ultra Galaxy S11 has a 13 MP main rear camera and another 8 MP ultra angle, while the front is 12 MP ultra wide angle. In the standard S11 the configuration is identical but we do not have the ultra -wide rear chamber. The S Pen is rediseña, the AI ​​accompanies One of the main novelties of the new Galaxy Tab S11/Ultra is not on tablets as such, but in its great complement: the S Pen which is already a sign of identity of many of the Samsung devices. The manufacturer has wanted to take a twist to this styles and redesigned to recreate the traditional pencil. Thus, they have a grip that according to Samsung has improved thanks to its hexagonal design. But it is also that its internal design also allows better and greater angles of inclination, which makes it easier for artists to use them can even more notably imitate the behavior of the conventional pencil. All this joins an improved durability and the button of one of its faces to launch the Quick Tools at any time. With them we can quickly select stroke thickness or colors while drawing. To complement that drawing experience we have draw assist, which allows after creating a sketch We can use AI To complete it. Actually that is one of the many artificial intelligence options of these devices. Thus, we have a summary of our day thanks to the “Now Brief” application, or the AI ​​Home solution to control the solutions with Smart Things technology of our home.

by

Let’s talk to you about Instagram version launched for iPad which has arrived in September 2025 After 15 years of waiting. It is a version adapted to larger screens, and that has some interesting novelties that make a difference with respect to the mobile version. Let’s start the article explaining what this version is. Then we will talk about the main differences with respect to mobile versions, and we will end up telling you how you can download it. What is Instagram for iPad Instagram has never had an iPad version. Instead, Apple tablets users had to settle for the same mobile version, but increased with zoom. Come on, what The interface was the samewhich caused it to be very difficult to use, because driving an app with the small screen of a mobile is not the same as doing it with a tablet. Instagram for iPad is a version specially created for the largest screen of the iPad. In this way, instead of conforming to the same mobile interface, there is an interface that best suits the screen size and the way in which a tablet is usually used. Come on, instead of zooming what you have, now it is a version that Take advantage of the big screen much moreimproving access to messages or notifications, and many other elements that are in the same row of options on the sides. This is not a different application nor specific to download instead of the mobile app. Is the same application In the App Store. The difference is that when you install it on the mobile, it behaves in a way, and now when you install it in an iPad it behaves from another. Differences When you use Instagram on the iPad The first thing you are going to notice are the changes in the interface. In the mobile, the content options have them at the bottom, and notifications and access to private messages are up. On the iPad everything is in a sidebar to the left of the screen. The experience of use is wonderful. If you are on the main screen, you simply go down, but secondly you have access to normal publications and you can easily sail for all the content or only the accounts you follow. In fact you don’t even have to slide the screen, With a touch on the left of the screen Low to the next publication. Besides, The three superior options can be reorder. In my case, I have preferred to first put the section of Friends So that nothing else clicks on the icon of the content you will see only that of the people you follow. The rearrange button you have it up to the right, and when you press it you can reorder the eyelashes. Both reels and private messages and notifications They show the content in a double column. This means that on the left you see the reel, the list of messages or notifications, and when you enter them you can see on the right the comments, the messages of the selected chat or the content that the notification receives. It is also an application designed for the future, because it has support for multitage and floating windows in Ipados 26. Come on, you can use it in full -screen or horizontal screen mode, but also in window. It is also Compatible with keyboard, trackpad and Apple Pencil So you can control it in many ways. How to install Instagram for iPad Instagram for iPad is available In the App Store in this linkand applies to any iPad with ipados 15.1 or higher versions. It is the same app as mobilethat is, if you already had Instagram, it simply updates to the latest version so that the change in design appears.

Roborock opens with a 1,500 euro washing machine

by

Roborock is One of the best known brands in the vacuum robots segment And he has just expanded his catalog with new products. Hand vacuum cleaners, a new high-end robot, a corteped robot and the one that concerns us: its first high-end washer. It is called Roborock Zeo X and marks a trend: that of Chinese brands entering the large appliance sector. Chinese technology brands want to conquer the home Chinese brands that manufacture appliances there were already many (Haier, Hisense, Measure …), but recently we are seeing as other purely technological brands are going to this category. We have the precedent with the alliance between Midea and Huawei. In 2020 they announced a series of appliances that worked with Harmonyosalthough it did not leave China. A clear recent example we have in Xiaomi, which had already conquered mobile phones and has long expanded its ecosystem to other segments: out of home, The car. Inside, Large appliances. We saw it in its event to celebrate the fifteen anniversary that was held last May. Within their Mijia range they announced airs conditioned, refrigerators, washing machines and even an intelligent tap. For now, Only air conditioner has arrivedbut the plan is to bring the fridge and the washing machine before the end of the year. Now, Roborock follows his steps. Roborock Zeo X: Lava and Dry with a design that does not look like a washing machine Earlier this year they already made their first foray into the washing of clothes with the Roborock Zeo Lite and Zeo Minibut this is its first high-end washing machine and consolidates its entry into a segment that until recently was unknown. Roborock Zeo X has a embedded design that moves away from the classic front front. The door is tactile and the controls are found in the glass itself, but when we are not using it they are not seen, leaving a clean front that does not seem like a washing machine. A Chinese company that you do not know manufactures 35% of all microwaves in the world. Probably yours too To ensure deep and efficient washing, it has a technology called Finefoam that allows you to better penetrate tissues, while reducing water consumption by 32% and energy by 20%, always according to Roborock. As for drying, its ZEO-CYCLE function uses a natural zeolite mineral to dry at low temperatures (between 37 and 50 degrees), so that problems with delicate tissues are avoided. Of course, intelligent functions could not miss. Its algorithm automatically adjusts the amount of water, drum speed and drying temperature. It also has a detergent tank that is adjusted automatically and avoids us having to fill it every time. It will cost 1,499 euros.

They improve wine quality

by

The agrevoltaic I was already gaining ground as THE GREAT PROMISE OF THE FIELD and renewable energy. What we did not know was that it can also improve wine. Short. The Svolta, a winery in the Italian region of Puglia, has discovered that integrating agrevoltaic systems into the vineyards can mitigate some of the effects of climate change, delay the maturation of grapes and Improve wine quality. In addition, it has allowed them to cultivate grape varieties that are not typical of the region, not to mention the economic and environmental benefits when saving water and producing solar energy in the same land where the vine is cultivated. A huge agreglyst installation. The project is called AGRIVOLTAIC VIGNA DI COMMUNITà and has 7,770 solar panels of thin double -union film. Among all, they add up to 970 kW output power. Solar panels are oriented south at an angle of 28 degrees. They rest on a concrete structure, inspired by the typical pergola of the Italian vineyards. The vine grows below, protected from wind and heat waves. The secret is in the shadow. The shadow projecting the solar panels has been delaying the harvest of the Svolta of three to four weeks, with respect to the surrounding vineyards. Both for the white grape and for the ink grapes. Last year, the Agrivoltaic Vigna Di Community completed the harvest at the end of August, weeks after other vineyards did. How it affects the quality of wine. The lower exposure to the sun slows the accumulation of sugars in the grapes, which improves the balance between the alcoholic degree and the acidity in fermentation. According to the SVOLTA, this allows to elaborate high quality wines without the need for corrective interventions. The agrivoltaic system improved the water stress of the plants, protected the meteorological excess grapes and reduced the wind speed in half, compared to the open field. The winery did technical studies that show a reduction in water consumption for irrigation of up to 20% and an increase in land performance between 20% and 60%. Experimentation continues. The Svolta has cultivated more than 30 varieties of vine, mainly native to Puglia. In April, The winery presented Primitive wines, Falanghina and Traminer, among which a foamy white grapes highlighted, for which the agrivoltaic system has been particularly beneficial.
