Apple admits under his breath that Liquid Glass transparencies do not allow notifications to be seen: iOS 26.1 will solve it

by

It has already been a month since Apple released the final version of iOS 26. The last major update promised “the biggest redesign in years” and debuted the Liquid Glass interface with that obsession with transparencies that we already saw that It didn’t do many favors for the readability of the icons and notifications. It wasn’t just our thing. The next iOS update will bring a new option to minimize the problem. The problem of transparencies We can argue if it looks good or not, but what cannot be denied is that the texts do not read well, or at least they read worse than before. It happens with the icons and, above all, with the notifications. For example, an image of the first beta of iOS 26: With dark backgrounds the problem is not so serious, but it is still less readable than if the background of the notifications were opaque. In its day we already told you a trick to return to having a more opaque designbut now the solution comes from Apple. The solution arrives with iOS 26.1 They tell it in 9to5Macwhere they have downloaded iOS 26.1 beta 4, which will be the next major system update. In it, there is a new option to adjust the interface design to make it more opaque. It is found in the Screen and Brightness menu and allows us Choose between a transparent or opaque look. Click on the image to go to the post in X. In the images you can see the difference between both options and how the entire appearance changes. According to Apple: “Choose your preferred look for Liquid Glass. Clear is more transparent and lets you see the content underneath. Tinting increases opacity and adds more contrast.” They don’t say there is a readability problem directly, but the simple fact that they release this option is a way to recognize the criticisms. Having more customization options is always good news. Yes indeed, Apple could have given us the option to choose the intensity between the two options. By applying one of the two, it will affect the entire system and also the apps that have implemented Liquid Glass. At the moment there is no confirmed release date for iOS 26.1, but taking into account that there are already four beta versions, it is expected to arrive very soon. According to 9to5Mac, that could be at the end of this week. In Xataka | iOS 26: 19 functions and some tricks to get the most out of the new operating system for your iPhone

The World Cup to the Comba exists, it is a hilarious thing and for us the question is obvious: what do the breath expect

by

Something that fascinates me is that we have the ability to turn anything into a game And, in turn, in a competition. If there is an Excel World Cupone of Collect garbage and Stone, paper, scissorsof course there is a world championship of jumping. It is a sport that needs great coordination and physical background, and a few days ago celebrated The World Rope World Blash championship in Japan in which the best on the planet have gathered. He is fighting so that the leap to the Comba becomes an Olympic sport, and I confess that seeing some video has managed to think that I am burning calories. Ijru. Are the acronym for International Jump Rope Union And it is the International Federation that organizes and regulates the competitive sport of the jump to the Comba. This is the highest world authority in this sport and is what seeks to expand the jump to the Comba as a high performance sport, promoting diversity, sports spirit, inclusion and those values ​​that make sports a universal language. The IJRU supervises affiliated organizations in more than 60 countries and something curious is that it was founded thanks to the fusion of two organisms that made the “war on their own.” On the one hand, was The International Rope Skipping Federation and on the other the World Jump Rope Federation and, with the aim of unifying rules and professionalizing discipline, reached good terms to become the current federation. Disciplines. Although it is not necessary to explain how it jumps, since it is a game that many have enjoyed at some point, perhaps you have to analyze what the disciplines are. Because in other sports such as football, tennis or Formula 1it is clear who already wins what is played, but with the comma it is different and there are several individual and collective tests: SPEED: His name says everything and consists of making the maximum number of jumps in a certain time that is usually 30 or 60 seconds or three minutes. Double Dutch: Two people turn two strings at the same time while other athletes perform the jumps. Triple under: You have to pass the rope three times under your feet in one jump. Freestyle: It is like synchronized dance, since athletes perform choreographies while jumping and tricks. It is tremendously complicated because not only the technique is judged, but creativity. Team routines: Similar to freestyle, where synchronized jumps, relay, acrobatics and any movement that involves teamwork are combined. Double combo. In addition, there are combinations such as Double Dutch Freestyle in which it is not about taking the maximum number of jumps in this discipline, but is combined with a free dance session. To qualify, athletes compete in national circuits sponsored by the Federation, and the best scores of each country are those that access places for the World Cup. The US, China, France or Japan are from the powers in this sport. 😮. Have you ever been watching a competition and exclaimed that “I’m tired just seeing them”? Well, beware of this video: That is the Double Dutch Speed, but in slow motion loses a lot of grace. Look at this at normal speed: It is not only about the coordination of the Saltadora, but about the rhythm and concentration that the two companions who are moving the ropes must have. But well, there is no easy category. Look at the ‘Single Rope Speed ​​Relay’ of this Chinese athlete in the competition a few weeks ago: These triples: The resistance session: Or this treesyle trees, which can also be played by teams Olympic objective. They are disciplines that would have a hole in some Olympics, but for the moment it is an honor that has not been granted to the jump to the Comba. However, the ijru is moving To be an accepted sport in the Olympic circuit, at least as a exhibition discipline. At the moment, the Olympic Games website itself has a reserved section For this competition, where we can see the finals of the World Cup in Japan held a few weeks ago, and On the Federation website We can see all kinds of rules about disciplines, the responsibility of athletes as behavior models or doping policies. The eSports have not yet achievedwe will see the jump to the rope that He slipped in the Olympic Games 2024 and that could follow the model of the Break Dance or Skate. Finally (because I’m still hallucinating with some jumps), I leave you on the last day of the World Junmp Rope Champioship by Kawasaki: Images | Ijru In Xataka | Millions of people are hooked right now to an Olympic Games where cats compete.

Its creation began to call the attention of some increasingly important youtubers, and the snowball was getting bigger and bigger. So much so that in its final launch, on February 20, 2024, Balatro sold 50,000 copies in two hours. At the end of the localshunk day he had sold 119,000 copies of his game in Steam, with total revenues of more than one million dollars. Balatro’s popularity is still exceptional, although its launch was not exempt from problems. The European ages rating system, Pegi, described it as a game not suitable for children under 18. LOCTHUNK He complained of the unfair of that qualification: your card game It does not include bets Or transactions with real money, and finally got the qualification to be Pegi 12, that is, suitable for children aged 12 years old. Since its definitive launch, Balatro has made history. He was nominated for Goty 2024 (Game of the Year), in addition to winning several awards in the independent video game category. By January 2025 I already exceeded the Five million units soldFor example. The game, which was initially available on PC and consoles, ended up appearing for iOS and Android in September 2024. And in all that time, something surprising: Locothunk has managed to maintain its anonymitysomething he confessed had been a success for him. Maybe one day we know its true identity, but what is clear is that Balatro has ended up being a phenomenon within an industry little accustomed to the success of small independent productions.
