There is a World War II board game that lasts 1,500 hours. It is not known if someone has finished it

by

If you have to regulate that to prepare a board, learn the rules and put the game to invest an afternoon (and peak) with your friends for any board game, ‘The Campaign for North Africa’ It is not for you: a Wargame of mastodontic size whose duration and ambition are so monumental that it came out in an episode of ‘Big Bang Theory’. This is its story (and the time you have to book in your agendas of the next eight years). Historical context. ‘The Campaign for North Africa’ replicates with painful detail the development of the conflict that took place in North Africa, during World War II, between 1940 and 1943. There were campaigns in the deserts of Libya and Egypt, in Morocco, Algeria (the famous Torch operation) and in Tunisia. The combat occurred mainly between British and German forces, until the United States entered the conflict in 1942. The longest game ever produced. It is estimated that to play a complete game about 1,500 hours are needed (and has been defined as he Wargame More complex ever edited), and about ten players. It takes place over 100 shifts, each of them equivalent to a week of the real conflict. Combat is the least: here what you have to do is manage resources to an absolutely delusional end. The most famous meme linked to the game to record its psychotic level of detail is that the Italians need extra supplies of water to prepare pasta (in reality, an autoparadical wink of the creator who does not correspond to a real fact). Each box included, among other things, a map of 3 meters, 1800 cards and six books with rules, historical context and tables. And a dice. But why. After this nonsense is Richard Berghistorical designer of hundreds of war simulators, not all of World War II: in his curriculum there are games set in ancient Rome, in Waterloo, in the Mexican revolution, in the times of the Highlandersin the Middle Ages, in feudal Japan … This game was born, in reality, as a collaborative project for experts who worked at the editor Simulation Publications Inc. Six months later, the development was so exasperating that Berg had to take the reins, something that took two more years. At the end of that period they were so fed up that they threw it without him (often exhaustive) testing that these titles need to be balanced. But … Is it good? Not too much: the game came out in 1979, it was not a success of criticism or public, but it arrived at a time when the Wargames They invaded stores every week. Today it is considered more a very heavy joke than anything else (and very expensive: as it has not been reissued, copies are quoted for thousands of euros), but playing it is not especially fun: it consists of calculating percentages all the time to keep the account of how resources are exhausted. It has been as a redoubt for fans who decide to broadcast how they will be its weekends for the next ten years. Sheldon does like. In the end, the game has remained as a wink for fans with excess of free time, as attesting to its recognized leviísimally autoparadical character. In episode 16 of season 11 of ‘The Big Bang Theory’, Sheldon proposes to your friends Wait for Bernadette to give birth playing ‘The Campaign for North Africa’. Of course, they get bored quickly, but Sheldon has no problem playing their own shifts and those of their rivals. A perfect summary of the crazy dynamics of the wargames as ambitious as this: fascinating as a concept, too demanding in everything else.

It is a notice for the rest of the millionaires who supported him

by

A little over eight months ago, Elon Musk self -demonstrated “Donald Trump’s first friend” after his re -election as US president. He Cross anxyper That both Musk and Trump dedicated themselves in public leaves no doubt that he has now become “the first former friend.” However, the important thing is not so much what both millionaires said openly, but the evening warning that Trump made to the rest of Millionaires who have supported him From his investiture: “Or with me or against me.” Musk’s “One More Thing”. After weeks of rumorslast week Donald Trump and Elon Musk made official the departure of the South African millionaire at the head of the Doge with A ceremony in the Oval Office in which Musk’s work was praised in the first hundred days of mandate. Then, and in the purest style of Steve Jobs, Musk raised his “One More Thing” before closing that stage and lasted hard against the new tax cut law (known as “One Big Beautiful Bill”) qualifying itof “disgusting abomination.” The fuse had lit and it was a matter of time that everything jump through the air. The World Cup was mounted. Following Musk’s criticism escalation to the fiscal megaley, among its measures contemplated the Subsidy cut For the electric car, Trump began Your offensive against Musk. Musk’s response came from his social network attributing the Merit of Electoral Victory Trump and threatening with dismantle the dragon capsule that NASA has been using astronauts to the space station. However, the high point came when Tesla’s CEO accused the president of appearing on the list of Jeffrey Epstein. Musk even asked his followers If you should found a new party to oppose Trump’s measures. The evening warning. Elon Musk was the Trump’s main validboth during his presidential campaign and in minor elections, contributing hundreds of millions of dollars that distributed To win the electorateand favor Trump’s political interests. However, that has not been an obstacle for Trump to defnert without flinching to such a powerful ally. ¿What would I be able to do With other millionaires who have not had a relationship as narrow as the one he has had with Musk? Jeff Bezos has already received the message. A few weeks ago a working document was leaked in which Amazon employees considered the possibility of breaking down the price increase of tariffs imposed by Trump in their products. From the White House they did not hesitate to get the artillery against Bezos. Karoline Leavitt, Trump government spokesman, accused To the company of “A hostile and political act by Amazon”, and lashed out at Jeff Bezos accusing him of being “the arm of the Chinese propaganda” while showing a photo of the millionaire leading an article in which he was accused of censoring the reviews of a book with the speeches of the Chinese president Xi Jinping. A call from Donald Trump to Bezos would be enough for the millionaire to recular and the company recovered the value of actions that They had collapsed before presidential threats. Apple managed a tense calm. Tim Cook was another of the millionaires who witnessed Trump’s possession in the front line. Months later, Apple felt the pressure of Trump’s economic policies. The president would apply A 25% tariff To technological ones who do not manufacture in the US. To appease Trump’s fury, Apple He promised to invest 500,000 million dollars in the United States over the next four years in return, since it was materially impossible to relocate the production of its short -term smartphones. With this, both parties sealed a tense calm without major consequences … at least temporarily. Mark Zuckerberg is not in prison. With regard to Mark Zuckerberg, the millionaire has not yet entered prison, which is already a lot since Donald Trump spent part of his campaign threatening with imprisonment “For life” to the meta founder. In return, the millionaire has not only provided financial support to Trump’s investiture, but has been one of the first to fly a flying Its labor policies of diversity, equality and inclusion in goal, but also aligned the functioning of its social network to Trump’s wishes. What the meta founder has not been able to get rid of the debate about whether Goal is a monopoly. Emalisting with Trump could make that delicate scale get against him and end up dismembering the goal.

A man stayed a 20 -euro bizum sent by mistake. The judge has fined her and has come out ten times more expensive

by

With 28 million active users, Bizum is the most used system in Spain for payments among users. We send and receive a lot of money through Bizum and make an mistake when typeing the number we want to send money is something that can happen with relative ease. If we are lucky, they may return it to us, but what happens if who is on the other side decides to stay the money? Now we know. Staying a bizum sent by mistake is very expensive. As we said, making a mistake to type the number to which we want to send a bizum can be quite easy and it is just what happened to a neighbor of Benavente, as they say in Zamora’s opinion. The person who received the 20 euros did not return the amount and the woman decided to denounce him to the authorities. The Provincial Court of Zamora has proved him right and has condemned the receiver of the transfer to return the 20 euros, in addition to paying the judicial coasts and a fine of 180 euros for a slight crime of improper appropriation. More than ten times the original amount. The Civil Code says. The denounced has resorted to the sentence alleging lack of evidence and presumption of innocence, but the judge has confirmed it and considers that the woman had not consented to the transfer. This would apply not only to Bizum, but to transfers and any other payment received by error. He Article 1895 of the Civil Code It is clear, it must always be returned: When something that was not entitled to collect is received, and that by mistake it has been improperly delivered, the obligation to restore it arises. There is jurisprudence. There have been more cases that have reached the courts for transfers made by error, such as this one of an Alicante businessman who faces Three years in jail for not returning a payment of 341,000 That was done by mistake. EITHER This 2015 sentence who condemned a woman for staying with 25,900 euros of the pension plan of her ex -husband, the result of an error of the bank when rescuing the money. Bizum in figures. Bizum It has become the standard of immediate payments in Spain. Arrived in 2016 as part of an initiative among various banking entities, although it was not until 2018 when It extended and began to grow. It currently has 28 million users and it is expected to reach 30 throughout the year. In 2024 an average of 3 million operations were made per day. The record was the past Black Friday (November 29, 2024), with 4.8 million operations. Or what is the same: 55 bizums per second. In total, in 2024 1,093 million operations were made worth 44,206 million euros. We do not know the number of erroneous operations when sending money, but with these numbers it is logical that they are increasing. Bizum grows, legal doubts too. In parallel to this growth, unknowns have also been increasing from the legal and legal point of view. Many users wonder What income or payments should be declared to the Treasury. We know that it is not necessary to declare payments between friends and family, although the freelancers who use it to collect, the income that generate economic profitability as rentals or if the total amount adds more than 10,000 euros per year should do. Doubts have also emerged about whether something that has eliminated the Threshold of 3,000 euros in the control of transfers by the Treasury. In this case, if high amounts are received through Bizum, the Treasury may investigate it, just as they would do if it were a transfer or a metallic income. Little by little, light is shed and it is clear that, at the legal level, Bizum is one more method to move money and apply the same rules as any type of income In Xataka | Timo of the false bizum by mistake: how it works and how to avoid this scam

The anger between Musk and Trump has made Tesla lose 100,000 million dollars. Is the least of his problems

by

Elon Musk and Donald Trump have staged for hours a breakdown of a bloody divorce. With accusations exchanged in which it has threatened to withdraw aid to electric cars, the Disassembly from the International Space Station And it has come to the fore to Epstein’s namethe afternoon has been moved in the United States. The clash has mobilized the entire Maga Movement In favor of each other (including the request of the Elon Musk deportation). And, in the middle of all, Tesla. 14%. Without a doubt, the afternoon figure in the United States. That is what The actions of Tesla came to fall Although, at the end of the day, there was a small rebound that left the action losing more than 11 % at the end of the day. Thus, the price of the action started the day exceeding $ 322 and closed it by $ 284.70. If the final rebound had not occurred, we were talking about the shareholder would have left another 10 dollars per share. However, it is estimated that Tesla has left some 100,000 million dollars Yesterday. On a personal level, Elon Musk has seen 34,000 million dollars volatilize with his discussion yesterday. Although we focus here on Tesla, we must not lose sight of the US government contracts with Starlink or Space X. The youngest of the problems. In total, it is estimated that Tesla has lost $ 100,000 million in the last fight between Trump and Musk. The dialectical crossing has caused a socavon in the graph of the actions but that is not the greatest of the problems. Now, with Trump as an enemy of Musk, Tesla has to row in a complicated scenario. The Robotaxi. It is the first indicated. Elon Musk announced that The first deployment of the robotaxi Tesla would take place in the city of Austin (Texas) whose mayor is from the Democratic Party But there are more derivatives that are intimately linked to the expansion of the service. However, The Governor of Texas is a republican And, in fact, the State is one of the bastions of the party. To this is added that NHTSSA is a state entity in charge of appraining the novelties that want to apply to circulate on the road. With their decisions, for example, it forces operators to have flyers and pedals In their cars, something that I wanted to eliminate Elon Musk in his robotaxis. The NHTSSA. The National Highway Traffic Security Administration (NHTSA) is also responsible for carrying out the accident investigations that occur when driving aid systems are active and has actively pursued the highway of Tesla. Its financing depends on the United States Congress and depends on the Department of Transportation that is directed from the Government. In addition to the previous investigations, it is the one who is approved so that a vehicle can work with a higher level of autonomy. For example, it is the one who rewarded Mercedes with the possibility of circular without the driver paying attention to what you have ahead. Yes indeed, In very specific circumstances. The aid. The withdrawal of the aid to the purchase of electric cars was something that, initially, did not seem to worry Elon Musk. Right now, the company’s leadership is so evident in the United States that they are the competitors of Tesla, who cannot offer the same autonomy-price relationship, Those who have to lose. However, it is clear that the withdrawal of aid can damage the sales of the company and Tesla is not in a position to leave sales right now. In Europe, Every month passing is a bleeding and In China its sales have also decreased To the point that Byd is already the brand that VWe are more purely electric cars In the Asian country. Regulatory credits. Another of the income roads that Tesla has been exploiting in recent years is the EMISSION CREDIT SALE. Donald Trump also showed his intention to prevent this type of practices that allow Tesla to draw income that since 2012 They have added 11,000 million dollars. When accountability before the institutions, companies have to meet emission objectives. If they exceed the maximum allowed figure, they can Buy emission bonds to companies that have not reached said limit. Thus, they lower their average emissions and avoid a strong fine. The beneficiary company receives the money from a competitor but although the number of emissions increases, of course, below the limit that marks the economic punishment. Goodbye to the Stock Exchange. Although it is not the biggest problem, the last six months have been a roller coaster of emotions for Tesla’s shareholders. At the end of 2024, the company closed the records in record, touching the $ 480 per share in mid -December last year. Since then, the controversial messages of Elon Musk, His Nazi greeting during the day Donald Trump took command of the United States or Your support for the AFD ultra -right party in Germany caused a sudden fallen that made us clear to what extent the image of Musk viciaba the stock market of the actions of Tesla. Little by little, the rumors of his departure from the United States government were already consolidating from mid -May, the shares consolidated the rise that had already begun in April. On May 7 the shares were worth $ 276. The confirmation that Musk focused on Tesla He lifted its price up to $ 363. In a few hours the entire climb has eaten. And what is expected. In addition to the obstacles that the United States government can put to the expansion of robotaxis, the elimination of regulatory aid and credits, it remains to be seen how the shareholders will receive divorce between Musk and Trump. Tesla is not going through her best moment. Its sales have collapsed in Europe And in China the rivals have been eating ground for a long time. It remains to be seen if the arrival of the Tesla Model … Read more

The immediate cost for Musk to break with Trump

by

Tesla collapses 14% after The open war between the president of the United States and the richest man in the world. The actions of the electric car manufacturer lost 34,000 million dollars of value in a single day, marking the second largest daily fall in the fortune of Elon Musk. Why is it important. Investors immediately translated presidential threats at real risk for the Musk empire. Trump promised to cancel “billions” in government contracts in allusion to a Spacex that depends on NASA. And Tesla needs federal regulators for its autonomous cars. In figures. The loss of 34,000 million marks the second largest daily fall in Musk’s fortune, only surpassed by the collapse of November 2021. Its assets fell to 335,000 million dollars, far from the peak of almost 500,000 million that it reached after Trump’s electoral victory. The background. The war began when Musk described Trump’s fiscal project as “disgusting abomination.” The president, visibly irritated in the Oval Office, replied: “Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will have it more.” Social networks became the battlefield. Musk said: “Without me, Trump would have lost the elections.” Trump replied threatening to eliminate subsidies: “The easiest way to save money is to end Elon’s subsidies.” Musk culminated accusing the president of appearing in the archives of Jeffrey Epstein. At stake. Spacex has contracts worth $ 3,000 million, according to The New York Times. Tesla benefits from tax credits that Trump plans to eliminate, which could cost 1.2 billion annually according to JPMorgan. Both companies depend on federal regulatory decisions. Only a few hours after the confrontation, the White House scheduled a call for Friday. Trump tried to calm the spirits: “It’s fine, it’s going very well.” And Musk reculled on His threat of dismantling the Dragon ship. Reconciliation seems more tactical than definitive. As Musk said: “Trump will be three and a half years as president, but I will be here for more than 40 years.” In Xataka | Elon Musk and the US government have broken their relationship in the worst way: putting the international space station at risk Outstanding image | Wikimedia Commons, White House

Seville wanted more security in its streets at night. So he has recovered an old figure: the serene

by

In many towns and cities of Spain, serene are a I remember distanta another time figure that he was in charge of around night through the streets while the rest of the neighbors rested in their beds. In Seville no. There the City Council decided to recover them to late 2023 And the experience has been good enough so that now, once that test is over, he has decided to return big, with more personal, more hours and covering more neighborhoods. Its mission will not consist of replacing the police, but in something much more interesting: demonstrating that serene can fit in the 21st century. What happened? That Seville wants that at night its streets are monitored by a figure that has disappeared in most towns and cities of the country: the serene. And he wants to do it big, in addition, dedicating considerable investment to the program (around 2.6 million euros) so that the guards can cover a large part of the Hispanic capital during every night of the year. Why do you do it? It may be shocking at a time when cities are already controlled by municipal agents and other agencies responsible for ensuring the safety of neighbors and businesses, such as the National Police, the Civil Guard or 112; But Seville acts with knowledge of cause. The Consistory already launched a program with “civic agents” to late 2023a service that worked for months and gave such good results that He wants to consolidate it. What do they do? The Hispanic City Council It makes it clear: The serene figure is not intended to replace the Polysa. On the contrary. His mission is to complement the work of the agents, inform neighbors and tourists, mediate in conflicts, accompany people who may need it, such as the elderly, dependent people or lost visitors, notify problems in urban furniture and alert the Cecop (Operational Coordination Center) Before emergencies. They are a “first proximity front”, In words of the Consistory. Their first year of operation gives a clear clue what the serene can contribute. In just one year they gave almost 500 notices To the CECOP room to inform open shops, problems with lighting, robberies, fires or medical emergencies. In Seville they have accompanied people at night, advising, mediating in the attention to homeless people and even provided “Preventive Protection” to a clerk before a case of harassment. And what does the City Council think? Its mayor, José Luis Sanz Ruiz, I made it clear This week when announcing the commitment redoubled by the serene: “we launched a pilot project in 12 neighborhoods of the historic center and the balance was quite positive. It has achieved a better coexistence, more security for neighbors and better job opportunities for hired people.” That first test was in fact launched as part of a public employment plan that ended Last December Without option In extension. Hence, now the Consistory has tendered a contract for the service to assume a company As of Octoberbetween the 1st of that month and on September 30 of the next year, although the sheet contemplates that the contract can be extended. What will the service be like now? Much more ambitious. If the pilot project had 18 “civic agents” and two coordinators, the new service will expand its seedling until adding 36 agents and two coordinators. This increase will also allow them to expand the Seville area that supervise: of the 12 neighborhoods planned in the 2023 plan, it will be passed to 26 zones. As for the schedule, the serene will be in charge of making rounds from 23.00 to 7.00 h 365 days a year, an hour more than before. That increase is possible thanks to a greater economic effort of the institution. The pilot program was financed by 725,800 euros. Now the investment is triggered to rise to 2.6 million euros. In that amount, They clarify at the City Councilthe salaries of the agents and the material they use, from geolocation devices to the clothes that identify them as serene are included. Are they exclusive to Seville? No. Although Seville has stood out for his commitment to the “civic agents” is not the only town in Spain that keeps serene. His figure has also recovered in Several municipalities Catalans Another example is Gijónwhat are you doing More than 25 years He decided to recover them to make rounds through the streets of the city from entrance at night and to the early morning. His work is very similar to that of his colleagues Sevillians: they help neighbors, merchants and tourists, prove that urban and lighting furniture is in good condition, they inform and warn the police in cases of robberies.

Ukraine has found the solution to produce three times more weapons than you can buy: the Danish model

by

It was known that Ukraine had raised a drone industry in front of the Lack of help. What was no longer known was that, since Russia launched its large -scale invasion in 2022, the Ukrainian defense industry had experienced a Explosive growthmultiplying its productive capacity by 35, from 1,000 million to 35,000 million dollars in annual potential. The problem was that, that the “potential” had no exit due to lack of financing. Until now. Lack of funds. As we said, this immense development Not only has it covered large companies, but also small workshops that operate even from particular garages, adapting to the needs of the battlefield. However, and despite this growing capacity, the country is limited by the Lack of financing: The state budget only allows to hire about 11,500 million in weapons, which leaves more than two thirds of the idle industrial potential. In fact, companies in the sector and senior officials They coincide in Insider in which, if there were the necessary funds, Ukraine could triple your production Armamentistic, thus reinforcing its resistance and reducing its dependence on foreign suppliers. Now they think they have found the solution in Denmark. The Danish model. To solve this paradox, the Ukrainian industry has proposed a small -scale solution: the call “Danish model”. This formula, applied by Denmark since 2023, allows allied countries Buy directly Weapons produced in Ukraine, instead of sending them from their own arsenals or acquiring them to Western suppliers. This way not only Reduce costs and accelerates the delivery of material, but also guarantees that the soldiers receive exactly What they needmanufactured according to its tactical demands and with an optimized logistics. Several countries have already added to this approachand others, like Germany, work in own adaptations. Thanks to this formula, Ukraine has been able to increase the production of key systems such as Bohdana self -propelled obúsand already has a list of weapons (including artillery and armored vehicles) ready to manufacture if more funds are channeled under the scheme. Collaboration and alternatives. Although the Danish model represents the road faster and fasterIt is not the only one. Serhiy Goncharov, president of the National Association of Defense Industries of Ukraine, and other leaders of the sector have also raised more complex models, based on co -production and the co -production and the Financing of Ukrainian weapons which include European components. This formula, although slower, could be attractive to a European industry that is also expanding its capacity Before the fear of A Russian expansion In the continent. In addition, the use of frozen Russian assets as a source of financing and the establishment of industrial alliances for technological transfers is considered. So much, Goncharov warns That many Western partners still do not expand their defensive capacity with the urgency that the situation requires, and that Ukraine, therefore, has no choice but to continue growing on its own to meet their own needs. Strategic opportunity Collaboration with Ukraine not only represents a way of supporting his defense in the short term, but a strategic opportunity For allied countries. The Ukrainian arms industry, born and adapted in the midst of the conflict, accumulates a direct experience in combat that is invaluable for any military power. Let’s think that your constant contact with the front allows you to adjust the design and performance of weapons based on the real conditions of the battlefield, something that many Western industries cannot replicate with the same speed. In that sense, associating with Ukraine offers Europe and other regions a double advantage: strengthening an essential supply line for Kyiv and learning from a military ecosystem that has proven extraordinarily Resilient, innovative and effective under pressure. As Goncharov concludes“We do not choose to be at war, but that is our reality,” and within it, the production capacity is ready.

Elche suffers an annoying tiger mosquito pest. So you will release 2.4 million tiger mosquitoes to solve it

by

The tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus) has become a problem in much of the territory in Spain. This insect has already settled in all the provinces of the Mediterranean basin and elsewhere in the Peninsula. The problem derived from this mosquito vector of diseases will go worse and is taking some administrations to take measures, some that perhaps do not seem too orthodox. Fire with fire. The City Council of the Alicante de Elche municipality has announced that it will release 2.4 million mosquitoes To fight the presence of the Tigre mosquito (Aedes albopictus) Between this year and the next one. The key is in the sterility of the specimens to be released. Aedes albopictus. The Tigre mosquito is originally from Asia, but it has already been established in Spain and other areas of Europe, especially in areas near the Mediterranean. This species, together with its “cousin” Aedes aegyptiwhose presence in Spain is limited, is a transmitter of some viruses, such as those that cause yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya and zika. Climate change and demographic changes, such as the progressive urbanization of some environments, is making it easier for risk species to prosper in new territories. This may be the case of these gender genre Aedes And also of others, Like the genre Culex responsible for transmitting the western Nile virus. Radical measures. This week, the City Council of Elche staged one of the loose ones that will be freeing thousands and thousands of insects. The objective is to release, between 2025 and 2026, 2.4 million sterile mosquitoes in an area that expands along 18 hectares. According to those responsible for the projectthe effects of this release will be noticed on a much larger surface, about 50 hectares, both agricultural and urban. Those responsible expect this technique to reduce the population of mosquitoes in the area by 80%. It may seem like a pilgrim idea, but the breeding and loose of sterilized insects to contain the population of a species is an implanted measure already in a variety of contexts is the call Sterile insect technique (TIE). The idea is that these sterile males appear with wild females to generate eggs that are not viable. A list that expands. In recent years there are numerous examples of administrations that have resorted to this strategy. One of the most recent examples We find it in Singaporewhere laboratories raise millions of specimens of the species Aedes aegyptiin order to fight dengue. These measures have also been implemented for years In countries like Australiawhere they are used to also combat malaria or zika. These types of techniques are used even with other insects Like the fruit fly. Also in Spain. We do not have to go so far to find examples of administrations that have resorted to this extreme measure. We don’t even have to leave the Valencian Community, where the pilot projects for the study of the TI At least until 2017. In 2023 It was announced the loose of nine million copies by the Ministry. A little hopeful panorama. A summer that is expected to happen to a rainy spring. It is the ideal cocktail for the appearance of various insects: mosquitoes, bed bugs, termites and even cockroaches. The expansion of certain insects can be a more or less important risk to the health of people that adds more mild inconveniences such as bites or material damage. But among all the risks derived from these animals, perhaps the role of mosquitoes as vectors of diseases is the most serious and among them the tiger mosquito is one of those that implies a more direct threatbecause it is one of the invasive species with the greatest implementation in the Peninsula and for the diversity of diseases with which it has been related.
