Thus looked at its peak before the arrival of Hernán Cortés

by

Mexico City is one of the most populated cities in the world, also one of the most stuck cities in the world. There were no roads ago, but channels: an intricate network that were the Tlatelolco and Tenochtitlan arteries. The two Mexican cities used to browse themselves culturally and trade until they joined in one. Thus, Tenochtitlán was one of the more powerful and large cities From its time, with a very careful structure of neighborhoods, the aforementioned channel system and a network of channels and bridges that connected the different parts of the city. For 1518, less than 200 years after its foundation, Tenochtitlan was an imposing metropolis. The big question is … What was Tenochtitlan at its peak? It is a question with a complex answer, but the good news is that there are some maps that allow us to get an idea. After the occasional artistic representation of the city, the best portrait of Mexico-Tenochtitlán of that 1518 is that prepared by Thomas Kole. Tenochtitlan in all his glory Kole is a 3D artist who, together with a fortnight of collaborators and numerous sources, They rebuilt The Mexican city in its time of splendor. All the images of this article are Kole’s work. There are also a series of aerial photographs, taken with Dron by Andrés Semo García, which allow to compare more clearly of Mexico City with the former Tenochtitlan. 3D recreation of Thomas Kole Tenochtitlan was, above all, a masterpiece of engineering and hydraulic. We have already commented that the channels were the arteries of the city, and it is not for less because they allowed not only the transport of people, but also of goods. Through Canoas that had great maneuverabilitythey could transport food and objects, but the port was also a cultural center where merchants from different regions met. Apart from the channels, they developed an advanced water management system with aqueducts that supplied fresh water to any point in the city. The main one was that of Chapultepec, with a double pipe system that distributed water more efficiently. In an engineering display, they also had the Chinampasfloating gardens or orchards to maximize agricultural production. The Mexica was a highly stratified society in which the different social steps were very clear. It was very similar to other civilizations and, comparing with one that catches us close in Europe, we could relate them to the feudal system. 3D recreation of Thomas Kole The elite was made up of a high class in charge of administering the empire, a nobility with religious and military positions, and the merchants, who occupied a privileged place for their strategic role. 3D recreation of Thomas Kole Then there was the ‘common’ class with farmers, warriors or artisans and, above, the Huey Tlatoani, the cusp of the pyramid. He was the greatest ruling both military and religious. Moctezuma was one of them, without going any further. Moctezuma II … too. Of the peak to the fall In its maximum splendor, Tenochtlitlán had about 200,000 inhabitants. To put it in perspective, Paris He had about 150,000 inhabitants at that time, London about 60,000 and Rome just 50,000. Bad example of Rome, since they were recovering at that time, but hey, the point is that the Mexican city was much larger than the European cities of the time. 3D recreation of Thomas Kole Photograph by Andrés Semo García (Semodron) Three years after that splendor … Hernán Cortés arrived. The Spanish conquering troops, with the native help that was under the yoke of the Mexicans, took Tenochtlitlán. The centuries passed, the old Mexican culture and rites were buried and, from the ruins of the great Mexican city, today’s city emerged. 3D recreation of Thomas Kole Photograph by Andrés Semo García (Semodron) As Kole points out, and as can be seen in the city, after the Spanish conquest there was little left of that Mexican past. From time to time They discover channel remains and other archaeological vestiges, but the best way to take a look at how the great Tenochtlitlán could be through works such as this artist. 3D recreation of Thomas Kole Not even the same zone | Photograph by Andrés Semo García (Semodron) Also thanks to the photographs with drone about which Kole imagined the Mexican city and allows us to see that some of the current great avenues could be in the past some of the most important channels in the city. The lake was dried and the city, which was once great and is now huge, has gained ground to nature in a surprising way. In this article we have left some of the most shocking images, but to better appreciate Kole’s work with more direct comparisons, we recommend visiting its website on This link.

There are farms that have more than 80,000 captivity scorpions and a strange mission: milking them

by

Insect farms seem to come to stay. The European Union wants begin to be part of our diet And there are countries like Spain that are putting the batteries. An example is the Tebrio Plant in Salamancawhat will be the Greater Flour worm farm. But, in addition to producing food, we also raise other unusual animals, such as scorpions. In countries like Egypt, Mexico or China, scorpions have become a business. And not only do they raise them: they order them. Life poison. Scorpion is an animal that cool. There are more than 2,000 species, they are all over the world, except in Antarctica, and They have extraordinary characteristics. The sting and tweezers attract attention, but they have a very hard exoskeleton, they can regulate the amount of poison they inject at will, they have an excellent night vision, great control of metabolism and endure their breath almost a week. Come on, they have been here for 400 million years and are older than dinosaurs, so they have had to force everything that has been preceded. Now, much less than we can think are dangerous for humans. The poison is designed for the hunt for their prey and, of those 2,000 species, only between 25 and 50 would be in danger (and the bites of many of them would not be lethal). Farms. And it is precisely that poison that interests us as a species. The amount of poison that a few hundred copies have would be insufficient, so places are needed in which to house thousands of these arachnids. And when I talk about thousands … it’s thousands. Nigeria is one power in the breeding of scorpions, but also China, Thailand, Mexico or Egypt. In this country There are facilities With 80,000 copies. Eighty thousand scorpions, which is said soon. These farms require specific conditions for parenting, with areas adapted to the species in which they have specialized and a number of specimens that varies depending on the objective. Thus, farms can be used to have copies to release and help us control pests. They can be part of a laboratory of Antivenene Research Or, directly, a farm in which we milked them. Milking scorpions. Ordering animals has nothing strange, but we must recognize that ordering scorpions is something that comes out of the ordinary. What interests is his poison, and farmers like Metin Orenler give the key in ABS Science To do so: patience, pulse, courage and a game of tweezers with which to extract the poison. The problem is that each of its scorpions (Androctonus turiyensiswhere appropriate) only produces two milligrams of poison a day. It is very little and is the reason why these farms have tens of thousands of copies. In the case of Orenler, 20,000 scorpions. Liquid gold. After milking it, they freeze it into liquid nitrogen, they make it powder and this Turkish farm sells it to Europe to Medical researchbut there are other countries (especially in Asia) that are also very interested in this scorpion poison dust. And this is where the key is: the scorpion poison is the liquid More expensive of the world. How much? Orender states that ten million liter. It is necessary to milked a lot to reach those amounts, it is evident, but still … Why is it paid so much? Potential. For many reasons, really. We have already talked about the research, and in ABC, Volker Herzig, who is a professor at the University of Sunshine Coast, comments that peptides and proteins, very numerous in the scorpion venom, can be isolated and analyzed to create something beneficial for us. For example, for the biological control of insects and parasites in agriculture or veterinary, but also to treat human diseases. Herzig explains that they are powerful and very specific compounds and that, if they manage to combine properly, they can be almost miraculous. “Let’s say that a protein is hyperactive in a disease, so if you find a poison toxin – scorpion – that manages to block it, a measure can be created to combat it.” The researcher points out that they have found components with potential to treat epilepsy, irritable colon and even strokes. Dorothy Wai is a researcher at the Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences of Monash and also studies medical uses of the poison. And his research focuses on the treatment of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, thanks to a protein called KV1.3 present in this substance. Following the venom trace. The problem is that Herzig also comments that, although he has received offers from farms to buy poison, he rarely buys because “you can never be sure of the origin.” That is, if he needs something very specific and contact him from India (something that has happened), he does not know if they really want to sell the poison because of how lucrative it is or because it is the concrete venom you need for your research. “I think that several more toxinologists have received similar offers,” he says, adding that what he has decided to make samples is … traveling through Europe and manually milking scorpions raised by individuals. He assures that there is “a great movement in Europe of people who raise spiders and scorpions as pets”, and what really awakens my curiosity, and also a itching in the back, is the phrase of “visits to someone and has 200 copies in the basement.” Cosmetics. Wait, how much money these researchers have? The answer is that it is not they who take the bulk of production, but the cosmetics industry, which adds scorpion or extracts to their products, as well as traditional medicine companies. Teams like Herzig’s no longer collect poison, because when they sequence DNA, they don’t need more, but to create traditional medicines not backed by scientific evidence or new cosmetics, you do need large quantities. On this, the researcher comments that he does not know what they put to these products and that it would be cautious, … Read more

neighborhoods with younger than Japanese

by

In the month of February there were Some track In several enclaves of Japan. It is true that the nation is going through A tourist period As it is not remembered in the country, and that the New Year lunar had triggered the volume of travelers a little more, but among the hordes, a flag stood out from the rest: China. And not only because of the number that arrives in Japan, but for the number that remains, in principle, forever. A life without Japanese in Japan. It Nikkei had The weekend. Japan is experiencing a Demographic transformation and notable cultural with the proliferation of new neighborhoods of strong Chinese presence, in which migrants are a majority and can live, work and socialize practically without need Japanese speaking. One of the epicenters of this phenomenon is the area northwest of Ikebukuroin Tokyo, where a kind of “has emerged”New Chinatown“That has supermarkets, restaurants, technology stores, pharmacies and services specially designed for the Chinese community. Over there, residents like tangan editor who has lived in Tokyo for three years, says they can do everything from the mobile with the help of compatriots, without facing linguistic or bureaucratic barriers. This environment, which some call the “Chinese economic zone” within Japan, allows migrants to maintain Cultural and social links without disconnecting from its origin. From the center to the suburbs. The phenomenon is not limited to the center of the Japanese capital. Communities such as Kawaguchiin the Saitama PrefectureThey show how this network has expanded to the suburbs. In the housing complex Kawaguchi Shibazon Danchihalf of the 2,454 units are inhabited by Chinese families. The surrounding area has been transformed into an environment completely adapted to the needs of this population: with nursery schools, stores, restaurants and drug stores operated by Chinese, all labeled in their language. In this regard, residents like Zhang Min and Wang Youkun They highlight how the growing presence of compatriots has made unnecessary the dominance of Japanese, which facilitates daily life and encourages roots. Even ancient residents, like Liu Baocai, That they began in these complexes, they are acquiring single -family homes in the same city, a sign that many migrants are choosing to establish themselves permanently in Japan. Demographic replacement and aging. One of the conjunctural problems of the nation We have been counting For months: the population aging. Therefore, the social reconfiguration we are talking about is especially notable in areas where the Japanese population It has decreased due to that aging and low birth rate. In Kawaguchi, schools that were full have closed, and the remaining Japanese residents, mostly elderly, observe how their neighborhoods are transformed In Chinese communities. He Tetsuya Mashimo casean 86 -year -old man who has lived in the complex since its inauguration in 1978, illustrates this transition: he affirms that his neighborhood “has completely become a Chinese housing complex.” Mihama and Warabi: New “Chinese.” Other areas such as Mihamain Chiba, and WarabiThey have also seen a notable increase in their Chinese population, driven by accessibility to the center of Tokyo and the low cost of life. In Warabi, the Chinese already represent 8% of the total populationthe highest percentage in the country. Mihama, with about 5,700 Chinese residentsit has great housing complexes such as Takasu Daiichi Danchi and Saiwai-Cho Danchi, both managed by the Urban Renaissance Agency (UR), which actively promotes the arrival of foreigners with incentives such as the elimination of guarantees, renewal rates or key money. National phenomenon: China in almost all of Japan. Nationally, the phenomenon It has spread overwhelmingly. According to one Nikkei researchChinese citizens reside today in 1,603 of 1,741 Municipalities of Japan, which is equivalent 92%. There are 128 municipalities where their number exceeds a thousand inhabitants, mainly concentrated in Tokyo’s metropolitan area, but also in rural areas. In Shimukappu (Hokkaido Central), the Chinese represent 5% of the 1,600 residentsmany attracted to ski tourism. In Sarufutsunorth of Hokkaido, 3.4% are technicians in training who work in registered processing. Similar cases are recorded in TOBISHIMA (Aichi) and Kawakami (Nagano), where local agricultural and industrial sectors are integrated. Permanent residence. It is the other of the legs that the phenomenon explains and that we commented recently. Japan currently houses some 840,000 Chinese citizensand highlights the sustained increase of those with permanent residence (now, in addition, It has been flexible): more than 330,000 in 2024, an increase in 100,000 in just eight years. This change not only reflects numerical expansion, but also a clear tendency towards long -term settlement. The new generations are being born, growing and building their future in Japan, consolidating a process of silent, but deep integration. Demographic transformation The proliferation of these “New Chinatowns” In Japan marks a historical transition in the social composition of the country. In a context of accelerated aging and Rural depopulationthe Chinese community not only fills population gaps, but also builds solid support networkstrade and culture that allow its members to live comfortably without abandoning their identity. Obviously, this trend also raises key questions about the future of social cohesion in Japan, integration policies, and redefinition of what it means to belong in an increasingly diverse society (more, if possible, a Like Japan). At the same time, it illustrates how an organized and self -sufficient migrant community can transform urban and rural landscapes, generating new life centers in territories that seemed condemned to the decline.

has drilled a well -deep well

by

China has initiated a considerable amount of projects that are tremendously ambitious. The New Silk Routeit has been proposed to lead in the creation of Batteries for electric cars And also in the solar panel segment. Another objective is to squeeze your deserts. That is why he has undertaken the construction of huge solar farmsbut it has also begun to make kilometer holes. One of them is the Shendi Take-1 That, with its almost 11 kilometers deep, it is a considerable feat. And it is expected to be extremely profitable. Taklamakán. Located in the westernmost region of China, this desert is not only huge: it is a mine. A reservoir, rather, and one that the Chinese oil company Petroleum & Chemical Corporation, or saropec, is exploiting good. It is estimated that in this basin is one of the most promising oil and gas reserves in China and Sinopec has More than a hundred of wells in the region. The problem is that it is an area where it is well buried and it is estimated that much of the reserves are between 6,000 and 10,000 meters. In November 2023, Sinopec inaugurated the Project Deep Earth 1-Yuejin 3-3xca well of more than 9,400 meters deep to extract oil in that Ultraprofunda layer. And, although it was an achievement for how quickly they built it, it has just been eclipsed by a well of a rival company. Shendi Take-1. In the same desert, China National Petroleum corporation, or CNPC, built The Shendi Take-1, a vertical well that has converted in the deepest of Asia thanks to its 10,910 meters deep. It has broken the occasional record in confirming the presence of natural gas at that depth and one of its tasks will be to extract these resources. Colosa In all aspects. A ‘deep hole’ attracts attention on its own, but it is much more curious if we take into account that “only” have taken 580 days to reach that depth. The most complex was those final 910 meters and it was what they invested more time: 300 days. The question is why the last 910 meters took more than in the previous 10,000. The answer is because, as Comment The director of the platform, “each additional meter to a certain depth increases the complexity of drilling exponentially.” We need another drill. As we deepen the cortex, the temperature increases. 10,000 meters rise above 210 degrees Celsius and the pressure is also huge, which forced the CNPC to develop an automated drilling platform with potential to reach 12,000 meters. Not only the heads, with diamond drill, are designed to endure temperatures: a refrigerant has also been created capable of dissipating heat at that room temperature and elements such as screws have also been created to maintain their integrity at all times. It is not something that would be done only for this well, since China’s intention is to lead in ultra -professional excavations from now on thanks to these tools of which 90% have been manufactured nationwide, which allows the tunnelador to be replicated in a simple way without having to import too many elements. Dual purpose. Beyond extracting oil and gas, the Shendi Take-1 will allow exploration geological It makes all the meaning: when completed, 13 layers of the earth will have crossed, having the rock that is drilling more than 500 million years. It still remains. And we say “when completed” because CNPC has confirmed that the objective remains to reach a depth of 11,100 meters. It will be then when they reach that thirteenth land layer and almost to the limit of what the drilling platform can offer. In this way, in addition to allowing the interior of the planet better in Asia, China ensures tools and capacity to exploit one of the most complicated oil reserves in the world because most of the resources (60%) are at that depth. And yes, China will not even overcome the SG-3 well. Known as him Kola superprofundo wellit was a well that the Soviets took 19 years to complete, reaching 12,262 meters, but unlike that, whose purpose was the investigation of the lithosphere, the Shendi Take-1 will not only serve to satisfy the scientific curiosity, but to extract liquid gold in the process.

Every time you think about everything the Romans managed to do, remember that they did it intoxicated with lead

by

Who will not like the Roman Empire? A little over a year ago, thousands of women from all over Spain asked their boyfriends, friends or husbands to How much they thought of the Roman Empire. And, at least according to the meme, the answer was: a lot. What we just discovered hidden in Arctic ice is that, in short, we think too little: the Roman Empire He raised one of the civilizational works more impressive in the history of humanity and did it with absolutely demential atmospheric levels. Lead that they themselves had launched to the atmosphere. Lead, lead everywhere. Examining lead in three Arctic Ice Cores 2,000 years ago, a team of deserting institute researchers They have been able to calculate The level of environmental pollution in Europe between 500 before Christ and 600 after Christ. The data is, to put it in a gentle and restrained way, terrifying. As They publish in Proceedings of the National Academy of ScienceAfter examining the lead isotopes stored on that ice, researchers could create a map of pollution by this metal throughout Europe. Not only that: they estimated their magnitude, the blood lead levels of the inhabitants and even discovered what had caused that enormous pollution. A guilty with name and surname. According to data, silver is at the origin of this problem. Or, rather, the Mining of La Plata. In general and for centuries, the miners melled tons of galena To extract silver. It is estimated that by each ounce of useful silver thousands of ounces of lead to the environment were released. To put it in numbers: “During the 200 years of apogee of the Roman Empire, more than 500 kilotons of lead to the atmosphere were released.” This, always according to the records of the ice centers, is 40 times greater than during the large environmental lead peak of the 70s (after which we began to withdraw it from gasoline, paintings and the rest of the products). And that, of course, there were consequences. We already know that lead is bad for health. Very bad. And not only because of infertility, illness or violence problems: I talk about neurological problems that translate into a considerable decrease in cognitive abilities and concentration. In practical terms, According to DRI researcherslead levels in Roman times had to decrease between 2 and 3 points of intellectual coefficient in the general population. “It does not seem much, but when it applies to practically the entire European population, it is a big problem,” Nathan Chellman explainedCo -author of the study. A problem that, seen in perspective, only increases the myth of the Roman Empire.

The Xiaomi Su7 factory in China has become a tourist attraction. And there are those who pay a money to see it

by

He Xiaomi Su7 It appeared on December 28, 2023. It was not a joke, much less. Months later we saw an even more capable version, the Su7 ultraand almost for the anniversary, Xiaomi presented the SUV model: the Xiaomi Yu7. In less than three years, Xiaomi got his ambitious electric car will pass from the design table to the streetsand has achieved it thanks to a good strategy and a futuristic factory that is so successful that has become a tourist phenomenon. So much that in China they are reluctant in tickets at higher prices than those who would be paid to enter Disneyland. Success. The Xiaomi Su7 is to study it. It seemed crazy, but in less than a year, Xiaomi managed to sell 200,000 units and estimated to sell 300,000 this 2025. However, They had to update their forecasts because the new forecasts pointed more at 350,000 units. Its car division already represents 10% of the company’s income and hopes to start selling them outside China Facing 2027. The factory. There is a huge investment behind to start something like that in such a short time, and much of the ‘guilt’ is the factory. It is estimated that a car occurs every 76 seconds, or 40 cars per hour, within the Xiaomi EV Factory of Yizhuang, and that is thanks to a very high degree of automation: 91%, according to estimates. The plant has 700 robots performing processes of creating molds, assembly of parts, welding, paint and different quality verification processes that are responsible for guaranteeing the good condition of welding by points, of rivets and adhesives. Using tools with artificial intelligence and scanners, the correct installation of critical pieces and components such as batteries is controlled, as well as the structural integrity of the pieces. There are humans. Beyond the manufacturing plant, there is a circuit of 2.5 kilometers in which vehicles undergo tests, but also different stations to ensure the performance of parts such as brakes, address or damping. And yes, there is human supervision (about 100 people), but in the end it is a highly automated process, such as the one we see in brand factories like Tesla. Visits. Something very positive for the brand is that it has managed to generate a strong feeling of community among its users due to the huge product ecosystem (especially in China). And that visits to the plant are organized is an ideal opportunity for brand fans, to technology or automotive to take a look at the manufacturing process. It is a strategy to strengthen their relationship with consumers, also a promotion tool, so that visitors see all those automatisms in action. There are exclusive products, visitors can take something in the plant’s dining room and the visit is divided into two parts: 40 minutes where the plant is presented, technology, SU7 design and talk about that automated production. 20 minutes Finals in which the production line is explored to see all the robots in action. In addition, as they point out from Ithomethere is only one session on working days and five on weekends and holidays, so the opportunity is further limited. Apart from the robotic arms, there is an army of “electric corabos” robots Resale. Now, it is a factory, not a museum, so the visits are very controlled. It is done in groups of 20 people and thousands of people have signed up. It has become a highly demanded destination that is not only managing to compete against traditional options, but has promoted a resale market of tickets with madness prices. As they point from Motorpasionthis resale leads to a black market in which prices reach 2,000 yuan, which would become about 280 euros. That per person and for an experience of, as we say, one hour. You can always wait for an entrance to touch you, but it is already a process that compare With that you touch the lottery because there are tens of thousands of applications and, as we see, the visits are very small. And second hand. It is clear that there are those who see commercial opportunities anywhere, but the tickets for the Xiaomi EV Factory is not with the only thing that is played in the market. Although SU7 production is high, it seems that it is not enough to meet demand, so there is a generous waiting list. And there are those who are selling them as soon as they receive them. Units with just 10 or 20 kilometers are sold by about 15,000 euros above of the sale price. It is something that we have already seen other times (As in 2022 with Tesla) And it is a way of who has many, eager to skip your waiting tail (and have the money), can do it. The truth is that the Xiaomi EV Factory looks impressive, but we can only see it in videos like the one we leave on these lines. At least until Xiaomi is encouraged to remove their cars outside the Chinese borders and open plants through Europe, something that Other Chinese manufacturers are doing.

The most fascinating adventure program is a Spanish Tiktoker who is traveling to Japan with a 1998 Fiat

by

Fabio Bell is a influencer That, under the nick Volatadipuca It has been specialized in publishing videos about cars and trips on their social networks. He has made routes through countries such as New Zealand or India, as well as by Route 66 North American, and on his channel combines from cars reviews to interviews with vehicle owners of very diverse characteristics. His last idea, however, is the one that is attracting more attention: to travel from Spain to Japan in a Fiat Marea of ​​98. Planazo. Camperize the car To make life in him, advance everything that can be (on day 1, from Barcelona to Monaco, for example), three months planned at the wheel to travel 14,500 kilometers. At the moment it has been (almost for Serbia) and every day a video summary is uploading that in some cases almost four million visualizations. The inaugural video of the trip, the most viral, reached almost 10 million visualizations. In it, he told his more than 411,000 followers how he withdrew the seats on the right side to install a bed, installed a baca and supplied 20 liters of diesel and a spare wheel. 11 tricks to dominate Tik tok I tell you my trip. For some years, travel Tiktokers have become one of the most famous content on social networks. From adventure to more urban environments, there are more specialized ones (@Racherrosargentinos They only make natural scenarios from South America) and more spectacular (@Jacktravelworld Use drones and film plans, which has won more than 400,000 followers), going through those who have a more practical and earthly approach (@Alanxelmundo It focuses on recommendations and advice for those who want to make their own trips). @volatadipuca I think we all wanted a second season with the tide. This time, a little more beast than the previous one. In total there will be 22 countries, 12 currencies and 25,000km, for 3 months. Good luck to all #Nippon #Coches #trips ♬ Original Sound – Fabio Belnome The travel tiktoks phenomenon. Tiktok has become one of the key media to show trips: the hashtag #tikToktravel, for example, has More than 23,000 million viewsbecause the creators who make content for this niche take, often, extreme views: trips linked to adventure, others very strict in the sustainable and ecological aspect (often out of reach of the average user) or, quite the opposite, luxury destinations and unique experiences. Travel Tiktoks offer the type of experiences that the common of mortals will not do, and in that section is, of course, go to Japan in a car. Out risks. Travel Tiktoks consumer can enjoy trips without assuming the risks of the most adventurous creators, such as Alpinisya @Nimsdaithe urban explorer @Shieyfreedom or the traveler to high -risk countries @drew_binsky. Recall that many of these Tiktokers, like @RemnigmaWang Yongning or Sofia Cheung died while recording extreme challenges and trips. However, we can share their emotions to the limit without any risk, which explains Gherem’s success as Belnome. That, but by car. What does Belnome do what distinguishes it from other travel Tiktokers? Without a doubt, the idea of ​​remodeling an old car and using it as a literal engine of its journey. In each video he remembers that it cost him 900 euros in Wallapop, and dedicated several deliveries to comment on how he was repairing and preparing for the trip, in addition to going through the corresponding reviews and ITVs. In addition, it gives a unique suspense touch to the trip: in the first video the engine is heated excessively, and in the second it is already removing the temperature sensor so that the fan works continuously. Each new installment is a “Will it stay lying today?” That they do not have the rest of the Tiktokers of their guild, which brings you closer to adventure Tiktokers than those of travel. The attractiveness of the car that nobody wants. However, we are not talking about a classic car or a car Vintageone of those models that, repaired, fascinate for their design or their benefits. We talked about a Fiat Marea, a car that the Italian brand began to manufacture in 1995 and that, in effect, is not especially attractive or sophisticated. Belnome’s message seems to be rather “I travel to Japan uploaded in the first thing that Pillo”, and given how the engine is heated, the vehicle seems a challenge rather than a real aid. Something that, without a doubt, Belnome also uses so that the risk plays in his favor and in that of his channel.

The intestine has a “golden rich zone.” And if we often default out of it you have to pay attention

by

Making peanut is a intestine health thermometer. So much that in Australia they encourage employees do your things at work. It is a moment that We can take even to read or to do Infinite scroll on mobile (Even for Share the site in which we are making poop), but also one that we should pay more attention. The reason is that the time and frequency are details that say a lot about our long -term health. Cause or consequence? Throughout the years different investigations have been carried out on the importance of defecation as such, but also about the ideal time to do sothe frequency of the same and the shape, size and texture that They should have The Depositions. Studies have been carried out that linked the constipation with a higher risk of infections and diarrhea Chronicle with neurodegenerative diseases. However, these observations were made in subjects who already had some disease, so it had to be found out if the intestinal problem was a cause or the consequence. As science is not done alone, a team from Institute for Systems Biology He took the front to answer that question. The study. In it studyresearchers are Gibbons and Johannes Johnson-Martinez analyzed the clinical, genetic, microbiological and lifestyle variables of 1,400 healthy adults. Something that the subjects had to detail was the frequency of the depositions, which would be classified as follows: One or twice a week – constipation. Three to six times a week – Low frequency. One to three times a day – normal frequency. More than three times a day – Diarrhea. “Gold rich zone”. The researchers realized that the people who reported eating a diet rich in fiber, exercised regularly and had good hydration, had a good intestinal movement. In a display of scientific humor, they baptized this as “the golden rich zone”, which becomes a frequency of intestinal movement between one and two daily stories. That is the point where, according to researchers, the balance between microbiome and physiological markers is optimal. Therefore, the optimal frequency is between one and twice daily, but it is not always the case and, when there is an imbalance is when the problems begin inside. Ideal form of feces: Type 3 and 4 More serious than it seems. Johnson-Martinez comments that “if the feces remain too long in the intestine, microbes exhaust all available dietary fiber, something that normally ferment to produce short-chain fatty acids beneficial for health. If this occurs, the ecosystem changes and begins to ferment proteins, which generates several toxins that can reach the bloodstream.” These by-products of the fermentation of protein filtered to the bloodstream, such as the sulfate p-rresol and the Indexil Sulfate, pass to the kidneys, causing damage in case of constipation. If, on the contrary, diarrhea occurs, feces practically do not go through the intestine, causing clinical parameters related to liver damage. That is: with constipation, the kidneys suffer. With diarrhea, the liver. Chivato. Gibbons comments that chronic constipation, which we have just seen what effects they produce, has been associated with neurodegenerative disorders and the chronic progression of kidney diseases. What is missing is to define whether that anomaly in the intestinal movement is an early warning of a chronic disease or damage to the organs. Now, the study also explores how this frequency of the intestinal movement is also related to the Anxiety and depressionrelating mental health to deposits. The researchers comment that it has been possible to link the frequency of the depositions with all body systems and how is something that can be a risk factor in the Chronic disease development. His hope is that medicine be taken seriously to “optimize health and well -being, even healthy populations, based on the frequency of intestinal movement.” And some drawer is that, if we have no problem, we should not hold the desire or force it, because we reduce and artificially increase the time that the feces are in the intestine Study feces. There is an important detail that must be taken into account: to have a different frequency from that of one/twice daily can be normal. The problem is when it becomes chronic. That is when we should ask ourselves what is happening. There may be a health problem, but also that we have a low diet in fiber from fruit and vegetables. It is logical, but food and Our lifestyle It is something inseparable from our feces. In addition, throwing an eye from time to time is not a bad idea because it is a free intestinal health test. Also You can scan your poop with an app that analyzes it thanks to the AI. The time, matters. Being in the “golden rich zone” is relevant, but previous studies also explored the idea that the moment we make peanut is also. Studies prepared in 2020 and 2022 They related circadian rhythms to gastrointestinal activity. At night, intestinal activity decreases significantly, but during the day, especially after waking us or eating, there is greater mobility. An optimal moment is half an hour after awakening, since the colon is activated after nighttime rest, but defecating later of that moment does not imply that something goes wrong because there is some flexibility in the matter.

The first European attempt to launch a commercial rocket at orbit has ended up explosion to northern Norway

by

First attempt. The inaugural launch of the Spectrum rocket, a test mission without payload called “Going Full Spectrum”took off at 12:30 CET on March 30 from the Andøya Space Puerto, in Norway. Originally scheduled for March 24, the flight was delayed several times due to bad weather conditions. After lighting their nine engines, the Spectrum He cleared the launch platform and rose without problems for 18 seconds. Then he began to lose control or overwhelming his orientation to the point of turning. In the second 30, all the engines went out and the rocket began to fall. The realization changed camera, but an explosion was heard shortly after. “A success!” The impact of the rocket near the platform and the fireball of the explosion They were captured by the Norwegian press. Despite the ruling, Isar Aerospace declared the launch A success. The CEO of the company, Daniel MetzlerHe added that the flight “has fulfilled all our expectations” with “an impeccable takeoff, 30 seconds of flight and we could even validate our flight termination system.” Although the rocket did not define, he turned off his engines not to deviate before falling. The launch platform is apparently intact. Flight launchers 2 and 3 are already in production. ISAR has compiled numerous data in this first test. Spectrum. What Isar Aerospace’s rocket has not been able to validate is the first orbital launching title of a European private company, since it has not reached orbit. Now the achievement is still open to other rockets such as RFA One of the German Rocket Factory Augsburg or Miura 5 of the Spanish Pld Space. Spectrum is a two -stage rocket and 28 meters high designed to transport up to 1000 kg to the low terrestrial orbit. The first stage has nine Aquila engines and the second one has one, optimized for space vacuum. All of their own design, with carbon fiber tanks without coating and 3D printed engines, fed with oxygen and liquid propane. Isar Aerospace. It was founded in 2018 in Germany with a Spacex -inspired approach: integrated production vertically and very automated, with the idea of ​​producing many prototypes, testing them and improving their design through multiple iterations. It is very well financed with a total investment of 400 million euros, which has taken the opportunity to build a new headquarters 40,000 square meters near Munich. According to Isar, it will have the capacity to produce 40 Spectrum rockets per year. Norway. Isar Aerospace has an exclusive platform in the Andøya Space Puerto in Norway, chosen for its ideal location to reach polar orbits and heliosíncronas and because the rocket takes off on the open ocean. It also has the meteorological problem that has been seen the days before the launch. Images | Isar Aerospace In Xataka | Europe’s access depends on the United States.

FCKGW-RHQQ2-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8

A gospel choir to start the presentation of Windows XP? A gospel choir to start the Windows XP presentation. It was clear that this operating system wanted to propose something different, and in that event in New York, Microsoft was with everything. There was only one problem. That Windows XP, which was a payment product, You could use free. The fault was a very special activation key. It was leaked by the Warez group (illegal software copies) Devil’s Own, but it also did 35 days before said operating system was launched. To advertise this filtration they also used a singular method: they published a photo in which a hand held a CD-R supposedly with a copy of Windows XP and the activation key written in the CD: FCKGW-RHQQ2-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8 They also published The famous NFO file that it used to accompany Warez and explained what each product consisted of, the company that had created it and the type of copy created. In the case of this filtration, Devil’s OWN made a foul comment with the type of protection, in addition to offering an iso compressed in 32 15 MB files (455.1 MB in total) and the aforementioned activation key. This activation key was a volume license key (VLK) that was especially striking because allowed Windows XP not to have to be activated By phone or internet, a process that was necessary to start using the operating system. The key, popularly known for its first five letters (FCKGW) is now obsolete and was blocked by Microsoft in August 2004 with the Windows XP Service Pack 2. The computers that used it thereafter showed A WGA notification (Windows Genuine Advantage) and could not update their teams, although even then Methods appeared To skip that protection and also countermeasures by Microsoft. I also knew that memory key However, for years both the operating and key system spread through the network of networks through P2P platforms as Emule, and allowed millions of users to install and use Windows XP on their PCs without paying the operating system license. The Windows XP activation key was so popular and so used that it generated a surprising side effect: its massive memorization. Even many years after having stopped using it, people who saw it again remembered it perfectly. They commented, for example, Reddit users who celebrated the anniversary of the appearance of that activation key. A user He wondered how the hell continued to remember that key, and the same happened In another debate In hacker news or for forums Anandtech. The famous activation key, which has Your own section In Wikipedia, it’s already part of popular nostalgia From PC users of the time, it has His own memes and some until they mention it In Tiktok. And since so many memorized her, there were even advice to Use it as a password. Be that as it may, the impact for sales of the operating system was probably notable, but no figures are known. Although it is true that Microsoft sold the operating system separately, in many cases the Windows XP licenses were part of new desktop and laptop equipment, which could mitigate the effects of filtration. In addition, at that time the Microsoft business model focused on corporate sales and OEM licenses-which as we said were part of the “PC-Operational System Pack”-and that also helped the consequences to be more harmful. What is not clear is whether this filtration further shot popularity and use of Windows XP. What is true is that the operating system became One of the most beloved by users. He was the most used in the entire market until August 2012, when Windows 7 surpassed him. Today its use is residual and is below 1%, but there were singular cases such as Armeniacountry in which According to Statcounter data The current Windows XP fee is almost 75%.
