Planning space in a modern kitchen is often a puzzle in which you have to choose between capacity, aesthetics and performance. To break this barrier, Siemens has just presented its new generation of single-door refrigerators and freezers. A range of household appliances designed for a joint Sidy-by-Side installation (as a pair) that promises to become the technological and design core of any kitchen. These are the products that make up this new range Siemens iQ500 integrated refrigerator (177 x 55.8cm) by 1,185 euros in the official store.

The result is a significantly higher volume utilization If compared to their previous catalogues: the new single-door refrigerators gain 16% more capacity, while the freezers take an exponential leap, increasing their useful space by up to 38%. To manage such a space, the interior has balconies and flexible compartments that can be moved from the doors to the inside of the drawers on two levels. This makes it easy to store tall bottles, oversized containers or bulky purchases. They have Total NoFrost technology Unlike traditional systems, Siemens has brought Total NoFrost technology to the entire range, which means that the active moisture extraction system is no longer exclusive to the freezer, but makes the definitive leap to the refrigeration area. with this condensation and drop formation on the rear wall is completely eliminatedbanishing forever the need to defrost the appliance manually.

“It is one of the most exposed areas and one of the most forgotten”

by

Summer is already upon us, and that means we have to deal with the heat and also the sun for several months. One of the ‘rituals’ we do (or should do) is to have sunscreen and cover our face, shoulders and back, since they will be exposed to the sun. The problem is that there is one part of the body that directly receives a large amount of sunlight and which we usually ignore completely. We are logically talking about the scalp. a myth. We tend to think that hair acts as an impenetrable shield against ultraviolet radiationas if it were a hat, but science suggests that this is a quite dangerous myth. And they go even further by pointing out that leaving the head completely abandoned in the face of inclement weather causes quite serious injuries to develop in the long run. They don’t stop repeating it. Something that we must be clear about now is that hair does not completely block UV radiation. As point the American Cancer Societyprolonged exposure to these rays is the main risk factor for all skin cancers. But if we go a little further, there is cancer beyond the famous melanoma, which is the one we all have in mind. For example, we have basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma that tend to frequently appear in areas with greater historical sun exposure, that is, the head. Who is most at risk? Logically, this is something that is evidently triggered in people who have baldness or very thin hair, although in general it affects everyone. Areas like your hair part, receding hairline, or cowlicks are blind spots where the sun hits your bare skin directly. The alopecia. Science emphasizes the importance of using protection, since it has been shown that there is a direct relationship between scarring alopecia, chronic inflammation of the scalp and the development of skin cancer. Furthermore, it has also been seen that when there is inflamed tissue due to suffering certain forms of alopecia and this exposure to UV rays is also added to it without a physical barrier to protect it, an ideal environment is created for the appearance of a carcinoma. In these cases, photoprotection stops being an aesthetic recommendation and becomes a medical necessity. How to protect it. Here the imposition of a physical barrier is the best advice that can be given, as they point out different organisms specialized in skin cancer, since they point out that the most robust and effective protection does not come in a bottle, but in the form of a wide-brimmed hat or cap. In this way, sunscreen remains a necessary complement that presents a very clear way: how to apply it without ruining your hair? And here the key is to use sprays designed specifically for this area, such as transparent sprays or mineral powders. Early detection. Beyond prevention, surveillance It is also very important for early detection of any stain that may be suspicious. This is something that is especially indicated for those people who do not use any type of sun protection and are exposed to the sun a lot throughout the day, such as a worker or a street cleaner, among many other professions. Here, with a simple comb or the air from a dryer, you can separate the hair into sections to look for new spots or wounds that do not heal, since it may be an indication that something is wrong and you need to visit a specialist doctor for evaluation. The experts. Here they are quite clear that we have a big problem, especially Dr. Cristina Vico, dermatologist at the GEDET of the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, who in statements collected by elDiario.es point because “the scalp is one of the areas most exposed to solar radiation throughout the year and, however, one of the most forgotten.” To this end, this expert also points out how important it is to use sun protection anywhere on the body and, above all, to check yourself well, since early detection is one of the best treatments that can be applied to any sign of carcinoma.

Spain had a master plan for the European fighter. The problem is that Germany just got a girlfriend with a lot of “money”

by

In 1986, Spain, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom decided to join forces to build the Eurofighter Typhoon. It took almost two decades to turn it into realitybut that project left a key lesson: in Europe, fighters are not built with engineering alone, but with industrial and political balances that sometimes last longer than the technology itself. The collapse and plan B. It we count last week. He collapse of the Future Combat Air System has not only been the failure of a large European military program of 100,000 million euros, it has also been the moment in which Spain understood that he could not wait for France and Germany to resolve their industrial wars. For years, the FCAS It was sold as the large sixth-generation European fighter, but tensions between Airbus and Dassault Aviation they ended up blocking the distribution of work, leadership and technological architecture. When Berlin withdrew, Madrid lost more than just a partner: it lost the pillar that supported its own bet. FCAS concept The Spanish exit. Spain had been moving in silence for some time. With Indra gaining weight in defense and with growing conversations with Saab, the idea was clear: if FCAS sank, there was room to build an alternative axle with Germany and Sweden around satellite technologies such as sensors, combat cloud, accompanying drones and command systems. It was not yet a “new fighter” as such, but it was a survival platform industrial so as not to be tied to Paris. It was a lateral route to keep the Spanish option alive within the sixth European generation. Italy changes the board. And then Italy has appeared. Leonardo’s new management has made it clear that it would be delighted to open the door of the Global Combat Air Program to Germany. On paper, that is a logical invitation: Berlin brings money, industry and experience accumulated with the Eurofighter Typhoon. But strategically it is a bomb for Spain. Because the centerpiece of your plan B (Germany) could stop looking towards the Swedish axis and turn towards Rome, London and Tokyo. In a matter of weeks, the Spanish escape route could become a dead end. Germany is looking for a leading role. The German movement also has internal logic. Berlin does not want to be a secondary partner. He made it clear within the FCAS and he is repeating it now: if he enters another program, he wants a role proportional to your investment and its industrial weight. That sits poorly with France, where Dassault Aviation never wanted to let go control, but it fits much better with Italian flexibility. Furthermore, BAE Systems and the German branch of Airbus already they cooperated successfully on the Eurofighter. For Berlin, GCAP is starting to look less like an alternative and more like a logical continuation. The Spanish dilemma. And here is the big crack for Spain. If Germany joins GCAP, Madrid stays trapped between two worlds: a mortally wounded FCAS and an alternative plan that loses its most important partner before consolidating. Spain can try to continue punch to France, but that would mean accepting a (much) more subordinate role. You could also look for a direct approach to Italy or even Japan and the United Kingdom, but arriving late to an already structured program reduces a lot the negotiation margin. The risk is brutal: being left out of the table where the next great European air combat ecosystem is decided. Europe repeats its old problem. All this once again reveals the great industrial drama European: too many projects, too many egos and, above all, too much overlap. While the United States and China move forward with centralized programs, Europe continues to fragment its resources between rival blocs. In that sense, Spain believed it had found a safety net after the FCAS. The problem is that this network depended on Germany… and now Germany has a new dance couple.

The World Cup has turned bar terraces into the big business of the summer. In Asturias this has opened a thorny debate

by

The World Cup is much more than football. Each ‘La Roja’ match is also an event capable of paralyzing the country and a lifeline (wink, wink) for a sector, the hospitality sector, that deals with changes in consumption of alcohol and the growing competition from the merchants. However, bars do not have it equally easy in all cities when it comes to exploiting the World Cup gold medal. Although in much of Spain it is allowed to take TVs out to terraces to broadcast matches, the requirements of the town councils do not always coincide. In fact there are consistories that prohibit the use of screens outdoors. One figure: 30%. Spain is a football country. That is not debatable. When we talk about hospitality, however, football is much more than a sport or a passion: it is above all a powerful economic lever. The employers’ association of the sector calculates that the businesses that broadcast the World Cup will skyrocket their cash between 25 and 30% on match days. What’s more, Hospitality of Spain estimates that if ‘la Roja’ reaches the final it will inject 130 million extra to your billing. Terrace slopes. In view of these figures and in the midst of the dog days, it is easier to understand why bars in a good part of Spain have asked for permission to, exceptionally, put televisions on their terraces. Their proposal is very simple: given the interest aroused by the tournament and how overwhelming crowds in closed venues can be, they want to install screens outside to broadcast ‘La Roja’ matches. More comfort, more income. It’s nothing exceptional. What is striking is that this request has not received the same response in all city councils in Spain. While some councils They have given the green light to the installation of TVs on terraces, imposing only some restrictions, others they have closed in band to that possibility arguing that it would go against noise regulations. There are also town councils that allow the installation of screens outside the bars, but require that all matches be broadcast. no sound. The case of Asturias. Although the topic has generated headlines throughout the country, probably the most interesting case is that of Asturias. There the hotel management association OTEA headed to the town councils requesting permission so that customers of bars and restaurants could follow the World Cup matches from the terraces, through TVs. In cities like Oviedo either Gijon The restaurateurs received the green light (with certain conditions), but other councils have told them no. It is the case of Aviles and Langreowho have decided that the bars’ request clashes with other prioritiessuch as the “right to rest” of the neighbors. “It is not possible to authorize non-compliance with the Law 37/2003of November 17, of noise, since the exemption from compliance with the acoustic emission and reception indicators on terraces (…) would be an action null and void,” states a resolution published by the town of the Nalón region. Click on the image to go to the tweet. The law is made… cheated, as the saying goes. That the local authorities are not convinced by the installation of screens on the terraces does not mean that the hoteliers of Langreo or Avilés have not looked for a way for their clientele to enjoy the games from the terraces without breaking the regulations. So reveals it The New Spainwhich tells how yesterday in Avilés there were bars that placed their screens strategically, next to their windows and facing the street, so that customers sitting on the terraces could follow the game. “We always meet at this bar. What seems incredible to me is the City Council’s rule of not playing loudly,” commented one of the clients who followed the meeting of Spain and Saudi Arabia from outside a bar in Avilés. It is not the first time that an international football tournament is accompanied by controversy in the Asturian hospitality industry. It happened two years agowhen OTEA disgraced the Avilés and Gijón City Councils for their decision to install giant screens in public spaces to follow the Euro Cup final. Beyond the criticism for the loss of customers, in the case of Avilés the hoteliers recalled that shortly before the City Council had prohibited them from doing something similar on their terraces. One dilemma, several answers. The most curious thing is that, although the laws on noise pollution are common to the entire country, not all councils have responded in the same way to the hoteliers’ request. In Toledo, for example, they has given the green lightbut on condition that the equipment works without sound. The only exception is venues licensed for music installations. In Albacete, the City Council has also authorized outdoor screens during ‘la Roja’ matches, the semi-finals and the final on July 19, but with an important fine print: whether or not the matches have ended, the TVs must be silent at midnight and in the Special Acoustic Protection Zone (ZPAE) the devices will not be able to emit sound even in the afternoons. Something similar happens in Salamanca. In any case, for hoteliers these are better conditions than those imposed by Teruel. Over there, COPE chain advancesrestaurants have found a response similar to that of Avilés. World yes, but with control. In general, even the most permissive city councils impose limits on match broadcasts: screens on terraces are usually allowed only for ‘special’ events, such as matches played by Spain, the semi-finals or the final in July, and even in those cases limits on noise and time restrictions apply. In the case of the capital, Hostelería Madrid assures that article 11 of the evening terrace ordinance prevents the installation of televisions outside the premises, which makes it difficult for bars and cafes to make the tournament profitable.

“Will I notice much of a change when going from a Galaxy S23 Ultra to a S26 Ultra?”

by

How often do you change your mobile phone? This is a question that we all ask ourselves on more than one occasion, because if we are going to spend a good amount of money on a new high-end device we like to notice a changean evolutionary leap between the previous mobile phone and the current one. In this direction was one of the questions that a xatakero asked us in our Discord who decided to take advantage The Officeone of the advantages of Xataka Xtraour subscription to access exclusive newsletters, raffles, promotions and other exclusive advantages. In this case, what we offer is a direct line with us to resolve questions like this. The xatakero told us that it came from a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, and he wanted to know yes I would notice a lot of change when passing to a Galaxy S26 Ultra of 1 TB. We are going to tell you what our colleague Alex Alcolea, an expert in hardware, image and sound, and who precisely made our Galaxy S26 Ultra review. The question How do you see the purchase of a 1 TB Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra coming from an S23 Ultra? Will I notice much change? Thank you. Our response Photo: Xataka Updating your mobile phone is a notable investment, which is why many of us are interested in measuring the extent to which we are going to notice a radical change. The more time passes between one mobile phone and another, the greater the jump you will notice, but those who use their mobile phone very actively are often tempted to update it sooner. Very good! This is Alex from Xataka… and whoever is with the S26 Ultra. Complicated request because it is already part of a spectacular mobile. My opinion after trying it at the event and at home these days is that you are not going to notice a giant leap, but you are going to have a better mobile phone in practically everything (except for the Bluetooth functions of the S-Pen, which are not in the S26 Ultra). You’ll have more years of updates and both the telephoto and wide angle are better, but if you’re happy with the S23 Ultra, maybe I wouldn’t make the jump just yet. Of course, have you considered other options within the premium segment? I’m thinking about an OPPO Find X9 Pro or an Honor Magic8 Pro. Brutal cameras, very good screens and more battery, which I see is important for you. If you say no because you are happy with Samsung, and if I had an S23 Ultra… I would stay with it. In the end, we are talking about premium ranges and it is much more difficult to notice the change than between an S23 and a non-Ultra S26, for example, or between two mid-ranges from the same years. Do you have more questions like this? The subscribers of Xataka Xtra You can send us your questions and our team will respond personally. And if you are already a subscriber, remember this advantage and that you can ask us whenever you want.

trailer for the latest from Netflix, which some call a new ‘Metropolis’

by

Netflix has cast Oscar Isaac, Al Pacino, Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot, Gerard Butler, John Malkovich and Martin Scorsese himself in the cast of its new film, which now presents its first trailer. ‘Dante’s Manuscript’, however, is not an action blockbuster, but rather an arthouse film that divided critics after its passage through the last Venice Film Festival, and which screened in theaters in the United States in a very limited way a few days ago. There are those who are already comparing it to ‘Metrópolis’. 17 years of preparation. This project has been going on since 2008: it was then when Johnny Depp’s production company, Infinitum Nihil, acquired the rights to Tosches’ novel with the intention of having Depp himself star in it. Julian Schnabel came on board as director in 2011, but the project remained on hold for years. Filming did not start until October 2023 in Italy, with Oscar Isaac already in the lead role after replacing Depp, and with countless problems and delays due to the actors strike. What is it about? Two timelines run in parallel: in New York in 2001, shortly before September 11, a writer (Isaac) is recruited by a mafia boss (John Malkovich) to authenticate and steal what would be the original manuscript of ‘The Divine Comedy’, written in the handwriting of Dante Alighieri. In parallel, the film follows Dante himself in the 14th century as he goes through a creative crisis under the tutelage of his mentor, played by Scorsese. Isaac plays both roles: Tosches in the present, Dante in the past. And Butler also doubles: a hitman in the 21st century and Pope Boniface VIII in the 14th. The film adapts an excessive novel of almost 400 pages that mix medieval philosophy, mafia violence and reflections on writing and the divine. Colored things. The most striking visual decision of the film, as seen in the trailer, is to represent the two eras with different chromatic treatments: one in black and white and the other in color. However, the film does it in the opposite way to usual: the medieval scenes are filmed in color and the contemporary ones, in black and white. The past appears to us alive and saturated and the present, under a gray and colorless layer. Who is Schnabel? Julian Schnabel is not a filmmaker of mass productions for all audiences. Look at his filmography: ‘Basquiat’ (1996), ‘Before Night Falls’ (2000), ‘The Diving Bell and the Butterfly’ (2007, Best Director at Cannes), ‘Miral’ (2010) and ‘Van Gogh, at the Gates of Eternity’ (2018). Eight years have passed between ‘Van Gogh’ and this ‘Dante Manuscript’. Schnabel is also a painter, and that origin can be seen in his films, with careful framing and highly visual work. From heaven to hell. the movie received an ovation 9 and a half minutes at its premiere in Venetian Venice. But the reviews were not so good: there were who compared it with ‘Megalopolis‘by Francis Ford Coppola. Othershowever, they mentioned the influence of totems of auteur cinema such as Cassavettes or the first Coppola. However, this is not small independent auteur cinema, but a Netflix premiere, which will finally present it on June 24. The film completely departs from the platform’s usual style, but the truth is that it is not a Netflix production, but rather that it has been purchased exclusively for its catalogue, convinced that the cast of well-known names will generate a conversation very different from the one produced by, for example, ‘The Burroughs’. The moment of ‘Roma’ and ‘The Irishman’ has already passed, Netflix has no intention of positioning itself as an auteur film factory, but there is something that does not change in its intentions: the more content it brings and the more attention it generates, the better for it. In Xataka | Netflix has achieved what seemed crazy at first: that we pay in exchange for watching ads

We are at 44 degrees and AEMET says that the worst is yet to come. The good news is that we already know when thermal relief arrives.

by

We’re sweating, let’s face it. And it’s Monday and you don’t even want to look at the car thermometer. Above all, because AEMET has already been warning that the worst is coming on Tuesday: even 44 degrees in the interior valleys, hellish nights in the southeast and anomalies of more than 20 degrees in the north. And yet, at the bottom of weather prediction models (where hours almost become weeks) cold scenarios begin to appear. “Anomalies of -12 degrees to start July“, you hear them say. And yes, the map is correct, the data says that. The problem is everything else. Although first of all, good news: thermal relief is close. “It will arrive in the middle of the week”a breath of fresher air” from the northwest. This will help cool the heat that “has settled in much of the Iberian Peninsula during the end of spring and the beginning of summer.” It doesn’t mean, of course, that it won’t be hot. Even if (as some maps point out) temperatures stay a couple of degrees below normal, it will still be hot. However, the decline will be clear. For reference, Bilbao will go from 42 to 29 in 48 hours. And now let’s continue with July. Indeed, some outputs of AIFS v2the European Center’s artificial intelligence model, are showing very curious anomalies for the first days of July. There are, in fact, three traps: the first is the deadline. Ten days, whether we like it or not, is still a long time to close a forecast. The second is that we are talking about anomalies: -12 degrees of anomaly is a lot, yes. But above July levels it is not ‘as much’ as ​​it might seem. At most we will have spring weather left. Something that will be well received, but that can become a problem if we do not manage expectations correctly. The last trap is to understand that ‘a week’ is not ‘a weather’. It is true that we have already had two very rare high temperature events (which, it seems, are caused by variations in the jet stream). It is also true that the idea of ​​a cold first of July conveys a certain idea of ​​a thermal ‘roller coaster’. But neither an early heat wave nor a thermal bump changes the reality: that summer is getting harsher. That is to say, we run the risk of the idea that “the weather is crazy” take hold when it is a lie. We do not live in a world where cold and heat are distributed as if the days were distributed in a lottery: we live in a world that is warming. Which heats up much hotter and faster than we would like. What can we expect? In the short term, a little more heat and a little thermal relief. There will be some showers in the west, first; and in the east, later. Then, if everything ends up being confirmed, a few days that are a little cooler (and wetter than normal). In the medium term, everything indicates that more of the same: hot, very hot. Image | BenBaso In Xataka | This map reveals the exact ‘climate clone’ of your city (and the result is surprising)
