Extreme

carry the battle of updates to the extreme

by

There is a new obsession by the main Android manufacturers: that of Offer how many years of support are possible. Until not too ago, most were conf formed with just two years of updatessomething simply unthinkable in the most current popular mobiles. In the last two years we have seen a magical number: The seven years of updates. A figure that, a priori, seems almost magical, and that raises life time (as long as the updates do not do more damage than well) exponentially. The problem? The same one we have been dragging since Android is Android. A clear obsession. Seven years of updates. Samsung was the first to open the ban, offering more support than Google itself. In response, the Google Pixel also had a seven -year supportboth system updates and security patches. It is a record for the operating system, propitiated largely due to the improvements in support that manufacturers such as Qualcomm. His latest processors allow up to eight years. The question is whether this makes sense. Birds in the air. Promise years and years of updates is fine. But there is only one manufacturer updating At a good pace: Google. Samsung has just announced the update to Android 15 for some of its high -end devices. The point here is that this version has been available since October. We have normalized that updating fast is updating half a year after Google present stable version, and another half of the next version of the operating system, Android 16. A loop that feeds the endemic evil of Android: the fragmentation. Seven percent. Only 7% of the devices worldwide are updated to Android 15. Or, in other words, 93% of Android devices are outdated. Fragmentation is inevitable in this operating system (With more than 70% global adoption), Given the vast diversity of devices in use. But 7% remain a very low fact of adoption. It doesn’t matter too much. A few years ago, updating the system version was to change design language almost in full every few years and access a remarkable number of news. From a time to this part, operating systems focus on stability and efficiency rather than offering draft news. The main change, AI, comes from the hand of models such as Gemini Nano, implementable without changing operating system version. Regarding the security of use, with being updated to the last patches and not having a too old version, it is more than enough. Manufacturers against. Android has moved away from the two years of updates and an acceptable minimum begins from four or five years. On breaking these barriers to approach the ten years of updates there are manufacturers with clear posture. Interviewing Daniel Desjarlais, product manager at Xiaomi, the response to why the brand offered no more support the response was clear: the average consumer’s life cycle is not seven years, it is three. Similar posture Share OnePluswhose posture about the mobile and the sandwich made talk. “Imagine that your phone is a sandwich. Some manufacturers are now saying that the filling of your sandwich, the software of your phone, will remain good to eat in seven years. But what they are not telling you is that the bread in the sandwich, the user’s experience, could be moldy after four years. Suddenly, a seven -year software update policy does not matter, because the rest of your experience is terrible.” Summarizing: manufacturers are at war with operating system updates. A war in which only Google is managing to fulfill deadlines, and in which it doubts how an Android will behave seven years later stalks the most skeptical manufacturers.

There is a revival of the two thousand aesthetics in Tiktok. And that includes something that has alarmed the EU: extreme thinness

by

Social networks They have become In the main mirror of society, reflecting obsessions and beauty ideals. If less than ten years ago It was celebrated The rise of the “postive body” movement, which fought for the inclusion and acceptance of all kinds of bodies, the current reality It seems to go back until the beginning of the century. What seemed to be a closed stage has revived under a new format that is worrying experts, governments and digital platforms: the phenomenon Skinnytok. The viral trend. The hashtag #Skinnytok accumulates more than 57,000 videos in Tiktok, in which young girls appear mainly giving advice on how to lose weight quickly, often through extremely restrictive diets either Excessive exercises. In all of them, most women are visibly thin, promoting these behaviors as if they were healthy practices. This type of content has been associated with an increase in eating disorders among the youngest, generating a growing alarm around the harmful effects of these trends, According to Libération. One more background problem. When you are looking for the hashtag, the first thing that appears is a message that says: “Your weight does not define you”, but then all the videos are observed where you can listen to phrases such as: “If you want to be skinny? You have to do skinny activities” either “Fat trauma”the latter accompanied with photographs of how they were before. In short, it is another sample of the normalization of eating disorders. Charlyne Buigues, nurse specialized in eating disorders, He explained For The Guardian that this type of clips not only encourages restrictive diets, but also creates a culture that glorifies physical suffering as a synonym for success. Also Dr. Also Chema, specialist in internal medicine, has detailed For Forbes that the advice of Skinnytok They can teach young people to interpret hunger as a sign of success, which is actually a natural biological signal. Eating disorders, such as anorexia, are having an alarming prevalence among adolescents, and this type of content exacerbates an existing problem. The target audience. The main problem is that the Tiktok base is teenagers. According to data from the Spanish Society of General and Family Physicians1 in 20 young people in Spain may suffer a problem of eating behavior. In addition, a study has demonstrated that visualizing this type of videos can cause damage to self -perception, only with eight minutes of Thininspiration It is enough to increase body dissatisfaction in young women. This adds to what He explained For Forbes, the mental health expert Stephen Buchwald: “Constant bombardment with unattainable beauty standards can create a vicious circle of self -criticism and low self -esteem, seriously affecting mental health, especially in adolescents.” The responsibility of the platforms. Before the growth of #SkinnytokEuropean governments and institutions have begun to take strict measures. According to politicianthe Arcomen France regulator, together with the European authorities, is investigating the phenomenon to determine if Tiktok is complying with current regulations for protection for minors, especially the EU Digital Services Lawthat forces platforms to mitigate the risks of harmful content. As mentioned, the social network has added a warning when looking for the label. However, some experts They have assured That these measures are not enough, since the algorithms of the platform continue to prioritize the most viral contents, without considering the consequences of spreading dangerous messages on body image. The 2000s revival. It is not just a phenomenon of social networks. The resurgence of the beauty canons of the 2000s has returned to the catwalks with the figure in the purest Kate Moss style: Ultradelgada. From The return of the Victoria’s Secret parade last year, with Adriana Lima’s transformationto the change of celebrities like Christina Aguilera, who recognized Using Ozempic to lose weight, reappear the aesthetic codes that dominated two decades ago, where extreme thinness is associated with success and glamor. It is not just about being thin, but about adjusting to a set of trends that prevails the image on health. The dangerous cult of extreme thinness. One of the central concerns around the Skinnytok phenomenon is the perpetuation of the Gordophobia in society. Social platforms, like the fashion and advertising industry, continue to promote thinness as the only ideal of beauty. This biased vision of aesthetics leads many people to be ashamed of their bodies for not adjusting to an unreal standard. Before this trend there was a filter known as “Chubby Filter”which ends up being deleted from the platform after numerous complaints of users who denounced humiliation. Now, with #skinnyTok, the effect is inverse: extreme thinness stands out as a personal improvement goal showing the long road that must be traveled again.

The extreme right is capturing children for its cause

by

The seemingly parodic scene came to share prominence with Donald Trump’s great day. During his first hours at the White House, the new president monopolized headlines with Elon Musk. The reason: all the best in front of the planet. For the richest man in the world, an act of euphoria without more. For others, a provocation of clear Nazi connotations that evidenced the turn to the extreme right from Washington. In Sweden they are seeing the echoes of situations like that. Children: Ultra Objective. I told it in an extensive Report the Guardian The weekend. Sweden is facing a worrying transformation in the panorama of the extreme right, a marked by an alarming descent in the age of the recruits, reaching children from the age of 10, especially in areas such as Värmland. Because. To understand the phenomenon, he explained Lars Stiernelöfsociologist and specialist in extremism prevention, which, promoted by the influence of figures such as Donald Trump and Elon Musk, who have popularized associated gestures To the ultra -right as described at the beginning, some minors have begun to imitate Nazi symbologies, but not because of ideology, but by simple fashion, without dimensioning their severity. This initial banalization opens the door to effective recruitment, where violent groups take advantage of the Emotional vulnerability of solitary, isolated and solid networks. Mutation of ultra -right. The British newspaper explained that although the historic Nordic resistance movement (NMR) has lost strength after its designation As a terrorist group In the United States, next to its side has emerged smaller and difficult to track, such as Aktivklubb Sverige and Gym XIV, who use social networks and Platforms like Tiktok To capture members before migrating conversations to private spaces. These organizations have faced international connections with similar networks in Europe and the United States, adopting a strategy based on the Early indoctrination and physical training for violent purposes, under the narrative of an alleged “imminent racial war.” Recruitment profile. Here is another key of movement. Unlike past decades, where strong young people predominated and with certain desires of notoriety, the current recruited are almost the opposite: vulnerable young peoplewithout social belonging and with great exposure to networks Through mobiles. This evolution has been key to feeding the loneliness and radicalization of boys who, without family or community support, find in these groups that false sensation of community and purpose. Plus: the pattern has facilitated the increase in the so -called “lonely wolves”, authors of attacks and violent acts without direct coordination, but driven by them hate doctrines. Members of the Proud Boys Leave, epicenter of the Ultra Swedish. And of all the enclaves of the European nation, the small town of Leave has become the main focus of activity of the ultra -right, hosting the Swedish headquarters of The Hammerskinsa white supremacist group prohibited in Germany, and serving as a meeting point for organizations as NMR and Visitors international, including Proud Boys. The Guardian explained that, although his presence is limited in number, his influence is significantwith training and indoctrination facilities, as was the case with Gym Club XIVrecently closed by local authorities. Racism, misogyny and hate. In addition, the speech of these groups is not limited to racism: they also promote hate towards women, the LGBTQ+ community and encourage conspiracy theories such as that of called “Great Replacement”. Here are names of characters from the called Manzhereas Andrew Tate or Swedish YouTuber Marcus Follin (The Golden One), who are presented as referents of masculinity and white resistance, normalizing extreme speeches among young people looking for identity and belonging. Digital radicalization. The path by which they sneak among the little ones is clear. The Swedish Security Service (Säpo), in fact, He has warned About the fast expansion of this radicalization Through mobile mobile and digital environments and video games, attracting minors who have not even reached adolescence. The combination of social isolation, political polarization and consumption of extremist propaganda seems to have created a fertile terrain for ascent ideological violence, normalizing hatred and threats in the public debate. A global phenomenon? Guardian ended with a Interesting reflection At the end of your report. The strengthening of the extreme Swedish right seems to be clearly framed in an international context in which figures such as Trump and Elon Musk have symbolically legitimized these movements. In this regard, researchers Like Jonathan Leman They stressed that, after the change of posture or turn of the United States In front of the ultra -right, these groups are now felt more close to the dominant speech. And although some government measures try to stop the phenomenon, such as the increase in surveillance and prevention programs, that lack of community ties, youth loneliness and the growing sophistication of digital propaganda with the help of algorithms maintain the alive threat and, perhaps worse, constantly expanding.

Marathons are so extreme that our brain makes drastic decisions, as how to consume itself

by

Running a marathon implies a considerable effort that can lead to our body to its limits. Of course, our brain is no exception in this regard. Effects on neurons. A new study has shown how marathons affect the structure of neurons. Specifically, the study responsible for the study found that this type of career Reduces myelina layer layer that covers these brain cells. This substance It is composed of proteins and fatty substances. Myelin Surround the axons, elongated parts of a neuron that connect it with other neurons and through which nerve impulses are transmitted. That is why its deterioration can make nerve impulses slow down, something we see in people with multiple sclerosis. High consumption. The energy consumption of the brain is very high if we take as reference its mass, Explain the responsible team From the new study: this organ consumes 20% of the energy of our body despite representing approximately 2% of its weight. The team wanted to find out what happened with an organ as avid to consume energy in extreme situations as a marathon. In reserve. And it is that these types of contexts force our body to take drastic measures for subsistence. Prolonged exercise, for example, can make our body exhaust its carbohydrate reserves, the primary source of body energy. The following energy reserve is in the fat we store. Already in extreme cases, our body can dissolve muscle proteins to obtain this energy, explains the equipment. As the team observed, this translates into the consumption of myelin that covers neurons. This reduction occurred in an important part of the gray and white matter of the brain and that, although some regions were more affected than others, the impact did spread similarly in the two cerebral hemispheres. “The results of our study indicate that nerve cells in conditions of hypoglycemia (little glucose) use alternative energy sources, such as myelin, a fat structure that surrounds the axons or nerve fibers that communicate the neurons and facilitates the ultra rapid propagation of the electrical signals,” Explain in a press release Carlos Matute, co -author of the study. Magnetic resonances. To carry out the study, the team made various resonances Magnetic to a dozen of marathon runners. They repeated these resonances on several occasions: the day before and the day after the race, two weeks and two months later. The details of the study have been published recently In an article In the magazine Nature Metabolism. A reversible change. The good news is that this change is reversible. The study itself showed how at two months, the myelin of the runners’ neurons recovered their usual levels. Uncertain impact. The study found a deterioration of myelin but for now we do not know how or to what degree this deterioration translated into effects on the cognitive functions of the brain. We know that the absence of myelin is linked to severe neurological disorders such as sclerosis. In Xataka | More and more people participate in popular marathons.

The United States has been sunk in an extreme increase in eggs. Spain now faces the same problem

by

No, they are not your impressions. Prepare an tortilla is more expensive today than only a few months ago. After experimenting A price increase Between August and December 2024 in the EU set, egg cards have risen again in recent days clearlyas noted The Observatory FACUA PRICE OR THE SERVICES OF Toledo and Bellpuig. Behind that trend there are a number of key factors and especially a great question: what can we expect from now on? More expensive eggs? The data of the observatory FACUA PRICE AND THE SERVICES OF Toledo either Bellpuig They show it clearly: after The climb Price scored already during the second half of 2024, the eggs have become more expensive. The percentage It can vary of one chain to anotherbut at the beginning of March the consumer organization registered increases in the price of the eggs of up to 25%. Meanwhile, the Catalan Lonja or the Toledo also scored price increases that have become 8 or 14 centsdepending on the type of product. What is the reason? Better talk about reasons, in the plural. The first key is the demand itself. The sector has registered an increase that already goes back to 2024with one 8% risefar superior to that noted by meat or refrigerated. It is not strange. During the Inflationist scenarios Consumers look for cheaper options, such as eggs, a protein source economic. With that backdrop the farms have also had to deal with a series of factors that affect their costs: The end of bonuses in the electricity bill and an increase in labour and the grain In recent years. The sector has warned of impact that will have the regulation that aims to eliminate the cages. Are the only factors? No. The analysis On egg prices usually point out another key: the ghost of the avian flu that hits especially to the USplunged into what has already been baptized as “ovoflation”marked by scarcity and record prices. In January the Average price From a dozen category to category, it was about $ 4.95, well above of what is charged in Spain. In recent weeks the seven euros. Here the Ministry of Agriculture and Food declared early year the high risk of aviar flu and activated An order that applied preventive measures in the most exposed areas. At that time, the EU Official Gazette warned that Germany, France, Italy, Hungary, Poland and Portugal had notified outbreaks. Where does the demand come from? In its last analysis of the market the Toledo Business Federation (Fedeto) a determining factor to understand the drift of prices in Spain: demand, both the national and the arrival of outside our borders. “Egg consumption remains high in homes and in industry”, Precise The collective, which appreciates a general climb in the contributions of all sizes, especially L and M. “Export is maintained to European center countries, where diminished production does not serve to meet the needs of demand,” duck. According to the Spanish Association of Egg Producers (ASEPRHU), at least in recent years Between 15 and 20% From the table eggs of Spain they have ended up exporting. Their main destinations: France, Portugal and the Netherlands. And the United States? In full “ovoflation” The US is looking for different ways of satisfying its demand and lowering prices, which happens in part, according to I recently advanced The New York Timesto bring them from abroad. A few weeks ago the newspaper said that the US is already probing several countries to ensure the short -term supply, although without specifying which. The largest source of eggs imported to the country is its neighbor Canadafollowed by Netherlands and United Kingdom. Recently the CNN chain pointed out, however, that one of the country’s great support is now being Türkiye, which plans to export 420 million From eggs to the US this year, a record mark. And what about Spain? The flow of eggs between the US and the EU is usually scarce and in fact, EFE clarifiesthe US authorities allow only the entry of European egg in the shell for transformation into ovoproduct, not for direct consumption. In the specific case of Spain, exports to the US barely pass the 100 tons per year, which represents only 0.1% of the export volume of Spain, more focused on the European Union. With all the newspaper Last minute I pointed A few days ago, Spanish products are preparing to send eggs to the US after verifying that the US has “shown interest” in their product. Moreover, he assures that in an internal circular Federovo claims to be making efforts to process export certificates. In 2015, in a similar situation, the US resorted to the EU, although the sector ensures that the scenario is different today, with a solid domestic market.

A Japanese restaurant has brought its obsession with fresh fish to the extreme: it allows you to fish yourself

by

Visiting Japan is immersing yourself in a country where the traditional and modern coexist in harmony. Its big cities combine futuristic skyscrapers and streets full of neon lights with millenary temples that have resisted the passage of time. In any walk through its streets, it is inevitable to find restaurants where fish is the absolute protagonist. And it’s no accident: in Japan, Fish has been a pillar of its gastronomy for centuries. Here, the menu is not requested, fishing. If you think you’ve seen everything about freshness, Japan always has more to offer. There are restaurants where chefs personally select the best fish on the market every day, but what if instead of waiting for them to serve you, is you who fish it? In Osaka, about five hours from the center of Tokyo, there is a place where the menu is not chosen, it is captured at the time. Our protagonist bears the name of “ジャンボ釣船つり吉”, which could be translated into Spanish as “Great Tsurikichi fishing ship.” As we can see in Google Maps screen capture, it is far from the bustle of the great avenues of the Asian city, and is immediately distinguished by its facade decorated with a fishing boat and posters with large Japanese characters that tell us what we will find inside. As explained on your websitewhen crossing the restaurant door the first thing will be to check the letter and choose the fish we want. Once decided, the staff will give us the right equipment, be it a fishing cane or a salabre, and will guide us to the fishing area. In that pond, where fish swim outside of their destiny, true experience begins. They assure that it is an apt challenge for all ages. After fishing, it is time to enjoy food in one of the four rooms available. We can choose between Tatami type seats in a ship -shaped area or, if we prefer something more conventional, tables with western -style chairs. Now, suppose we are ready to live this experience. How much will it cost us? It is time to take a look at the letter and calculate the budget. How much does this experience cost? When planning the expense, the first thing we should consider is that the price is based on the entire fish that we catch. Thus, a red kissing costs 3,124 yen (about 19.50 euros), a sole has a price of 2,840 yen (approximately 18 euros) and a listing juris rises to 4,980 yen (around 31 euros). Once the piece fish, we must choose how we want to prepare it to us, which is an additional cost. For example, a frying with Ponzu adds 300 yen (about 1.90 euros) to the final price. In addition, if we want to accompany our dish with seafood, we must take into account that they do not have a fixed price. In this case, the staff will weigh and inform us of the cost before preparing them. Marketing, Tourism and Gastronomy. It is no secret that Japanese gastronomy is rich and diverse, with fish and rice as fundamental pillars for centuries. However, many of the dishes that we consider today representative of Japan, and that have crossed borders, are not the result of a centenary tradition, but of relatively recent adaptations. Without going any further, until the 1990s, no one in Japan ate sushi with raw salmon. It was a marketing campaign that made it a standard, more than an entrenched custom. But tourists continue to come in mass in Japan in search of a unique experience. And there is no doubt that the country has much to offer, especially in the gastronomic field. However, not everything is good news, neither for the premises nor for those who visit it. An ingredient as essential as rice suffered a remarkable crisis: in full tourist boom, The shortage shot prices and led some restaurants to pay anything to stock up. When what matters is the show. Eating typical dishes in Japan has its charm, but restaurants have found ways to go further, especially when the goal is to attract tourists willing to spend on experiences. The possibility of fishing your own food in a place set as a ship is not only a gastronomic option, but a claim designed to turn dinner into a show that seduces both visitors and premises. {“Videid”: “X8D7XNV”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “Tricks to travel cheaper- Drinking tea is something that can be done anywhere in the world, But attending a tea ceremony is another story. In Japan, this ritual has become an attraction for tourists looking for more than a simple infusion. The experience is not limited to drinking tea, but extends for hours, with different varieties and meals included. Something that originally had a deep cultural significance is now also sold as an experience for the visitor wanting to spend. But the show does not end there. If tea is not enough, there are always more options to live Japan in a big way: geisha shows perfectly choreographed for the tourist, high exhibitions where tradition and show intermingle, and the Bunraku puppet theater, a cultural element that continues to find its place in a country where more and more things become attractions for the photo. A HAND FOR MOUNT FUJI. To promote other forms of tourism in Japan could be one of the keys to decongest Mount Fuji, a place that for centuries was a symbol of spirituality and personal improvement, but today dealt with massification and its consequences. What was previously an intimate journey has become a crowded tour of hikers, with tails on the top and an environment that is increasingly feeling the weight of uncontrolled tourism. In Xataka Japan has put a spicy in Spain in a peculiar way: with a "Madrid Osaka" In a town of 93 inhabitants To mitigate the impact, The government has begun to take action: daily visitor limits have been established and an online reservation system has been … Read more

After 48 years, Voyager probes are running out of plutonium. So NASA has taken extreme measures

by

The emblematic Voyager 1 space probes and Voyager 2, launched almost 50 years ago, are running out of energy. In order not to lose them, NASA has made the decision to turn off two other instruments to extend its useful life. One less instrument in each Voyager. Last February 25, NASA reveals nowthe mission team turned off the cosmic rays subsystem of the Voyager 1 probe, which studied high -energy particles in the interstellar space. The instrument has been doing science all this time and in 2020 allowed first How electrons from the sun accelerate when bouncing in shock waves as they move outside the solar system. Voyager 1 is the object manufactured by humans that is farther from earth and that has been going into the interstellar space more time. On March 24, NASA will also turn off the instrument that measures low -energy loaded particles in the Voyager 2. These movements seek to reduce the energy consumption of the probes, which depend on a radioisotope generator whose plutonium is running out. Both lose about 4 watts of power every year. There are hardly any operational instruments. NASA has been turning off the functions of the Voyager to prolong your useful life. Of the 10 scientific instruments Originals, only three will continue to function in each of the twin probes, one of them for just a few months: The magnetometer: measures the strength and direction of the magnetic field in the confines of the solar system, helping to understand how the magnetic field of the sun and the magnetic field of interstellar space interact The plasma wave subsystem: detects electromagnetic and plasma waves, providing information on the density and plasma temperature in interstellar space In the Voyager 1, the instrument of low -energy loaded particles, which NASA plans to also deactivate at the end of 2025. In the Voyager 2, the cosmic rays subsystem, which will remain operational until 2026 A growing repair history. In May 2024, after six months without receiving legible scientific data due to the degradation of the internal memory of Voyager 1, NASA achieved restore information through a complex (And almost heroic) Software update. It had already passed in 2010 with Voyager 2, but on that occasion It was solved With a restart. Not only memory is failing. In September 2024, engineers had to light secondary propellants of the Voyager 1, inactive for decades, to correct the orientation of the probe due to an obstruction of its main engines, also the result of its longevity. The procedure implied careful temporal heating of inactive engines, but was successful and allowed to continue with the mission. NASA expects them to reach 2030. Suzanne Dodd, head of the Voyager project, said in a statement that turning off instruments is a crucial step to avoid the “premature” purpose of the mission. Thanks to these adjustments, both ships could continue to send scientific information at least until the 2030s, although with a progressive reduction of their abilities. As for the “premature”: the Voyager have widely overcome their original mission, whose initial plan was to explore Jupiter and Saturn. Thanks to excellence in their engineering and these constant adjustments, the ships have continued to work beyond what is expected, revealing unique information about interstellar space and heliopause, the region where the solar wind loses its influence.

LG wants to take the customization of TV to the extreme and has found its best ally at AFO

by

With the importance of streaming, Choose a SMART TV with a quality operating system It is not trivial and it is no novelty that Webos LG is one of the best. Based on Linux, the SO implemented by the Korean firm stands out for its fluidity and ease of use thanks to an attractive and agile interface, as we have been able to verify over the years in our analysis of models as remarkable as the LG QNED87, LG OLED C3 either LG Signature Oled M. The latest version of the operating system of LG is webos 25 and we have had the opportunity to try it now in the New Korean firm’s teles for 2025. However, it should be remembered that LG offers a five -year update supportso there will be other models of previous generations that can enjoy this update Following the brand’s calendar. Webos 25 arrives full of artificial intelligence and more personalization New LG TVs by 2025 with its renewed command, Remote Control AI Those who are familiar with Webos The image of this new version will be familiar to them as long as LG has opted for Maintain an intuitive design and interfaceusing cards that are placed in the lower area of ​​the screen, which in turn can reorganize to taste. It also allows to close applications and keep them in the background to recover them quickly from the lower bar. This SO It has serial activated advertising which will also continue in the latest version, although as always, it can be withdrawn (from ‘additional configuration’> ‘Home promotions’). And once the bases are cooling, the news arrives. The profiles and everything that can be done with them It is one of the great novelties of Webos. Taking into account that the normal thing is that the TV is used by several people, if we give the relevant permits, it will generate different personalized starting screens according to our tastes, adjustments and content preferences. Thus, each profile will have its own applications (they can be hidden for other people, but not eliminate: in that case they are deleted for everyone), suggestions and recommendations and tells us where we have stayed in that specific content. Although it can be chosen through command, it is not necessary since is able to recognize who is through voice by Voice ID. A concrete example of Personalization through profiles It is that of the ‘Sports’ section, where for example we can tell you what team we are so that it shows us content of ‘My team’ and related suggestions, such as Highlights YouTube videos and interviews or when the next game will be. This customization experience It is not limited to content consumption, but it reaches all the layers of webos 25. If we go to the games section we can see which titles we play and what are our achievements and on the home hub screen for home automation we can also control the compatible devices connected and execute certain routines. Nevertheless, Webos 25’s great novelty is artificial intelligencewhich will be present in the most diverse tasks ranging from the optimization of image and sound quality, accessibility adjustments, recommendations and even conversations with natural language and contextualization through the button of the AI ​​remote control, remote control AI. Thus, it is enough to hold that button to Start talking to TV naturally. Thus, you can ask things like what was the last film we saw, content recommended based on certain preferences (yes, limited to platforms with which it collaborates for this function) or until it tells you to suggest films where New York comes out, since we have planned a trip close to that American city. LG has also integrated an entertaining and different function, the generative ai gallery, a way of generating images through AI on the quite paint but limited television itself. Experience is somewhat slower than navigation without more but equally moderately fluid and contextualization is good. But beyond recommendations, on a practical level The most differential of AI is that you solve problems. For example, you can tell you that you see the screen too dark and that TV itself helps you adjust it for a better viewing or directly, that optimizes the configuration. Although the total deployment of the artificial intelligence of Webos 25 is necessary to have a state -of -the -art model with its remote control, LG has integrated Microsoft Copilot For a more general task: the search for information through the Internet.

There are influencers chaining marathons for “solidarity.” Doubt is whether extreme sport really serves for that

by

Seven marathons in Seven consecutive days distributed throughout the planet, three races of 40 kilometers run in just day and a halfcomplete two Ironman In terms of a monthchain marathons non-stop Throughout a week … it sounds for science fiction version fitnessbut they are all real challenges assumed over the last months (or years) by athletes from Spain, in some cases with amateur profile. And almost all share two characteristics, in addition to the physical impact that they entail for them: a great visibility and a solidarity approach. Those who assume these careers of races often do so to raise funds that then dedicate to medical research, but with each test they are driving a few questions: do these tests make sense, beyond the one who wants to give each athlete? How do they affect your health? Are they just performances? Kilome -free bar. There are those who demonstrate their solidarity becoming a volunteer collaborator of an NGO, who donates clothes or food and who weers the shoes, goes out (or takes a plane) and is running kilometers as if there were no tomorrow. Examples are a few and, precisely because of the great echo they achieve, a simple search on Google arrives to find them. In 2020 a Basque set out to run A triathlon per month In a square to get funds for an electric chair, in 2021 another Madrid triathlete He decided to chain Two Iroman in a month to support the fight against cancer already finally 2024 Coach He commented with his plans to complete three times in a row one of the toughest ironman on the planet to, among other things, help “become aware of the true human potential,” in his own words. Are there more cases? Yes. Those above are just a handful of examples taken from a quick search on Google, but there are more, enough. A Catalan athlete has set out to run seven marathons in a week (about 295 km) to get funds for the ELA and a few days ago a influencer Extreme Sports A fan, Valentí Sanjuan, completed Another test Same amazing: he ran five consecutive marathons on five continents to finance the fight against childhood cancer. “I ran three marathons in a day and a half almost without sleep. It was hard,” explained to The newspaper After finishing the challenge, which culminated on Saturday in the center of Barcelona. A similar approach had The challenge than the too influencer Sergio Turull (pitufolow) assumed a few months ago: he went through Spain from top to bottom, from rate to Cap de Creus, in In infarction timewhich demanded that he assume some 65 kilometers a day. In addition to testing your personal abilities, the challenge sought to raise funds to fight childhood cancer. The case of Verdeliss. If there is a media example and that has achieved repercussion, it is however that of Verdelissbusinesswoman, influencermother of eight children and athlete who recently finished an equally extreme challenge: chanting seven marathons in seven days organized in different corners of the world, from Dubai to Perth, Antarctica and Miami, passing through the Spanish capital. The test was also accompanied by a message with solidarity dyes: the idea was to give visibility and gather funds to investigate A rare disease. But … Is money collected? Yes. The challenges give visibility to the causes that will lead and, at least in the most media cases, serve to raise funds. For example, in ‘My grain of sand’ it can be seen that Sanjuan has raised 20,400 euroswell above the 10,000 that had been marked as a goal, and Verdeliss’s challenge would have translated into 35,000 euros For a girl with Menke-Hennekan syndrome. As for Turull, I would have achieved some 58,000 euros. There are even more striking cases, such as the British corridor Gary McKeeprobably the most extreme of all. In fact he has won the nickname of ‘Marathon Man’. The BBC counts How he managed to raise one million pounds touring a route of 42 kilometers each and every one of the days of 2022, often before joining his work. It was polished 20 pairs of shoes. The approach was again solidary: money is collection For Macmillian Cancer Support and West Cumbria Hospice At Home and in fact the athlete has received remarkable recognition and the thanks of relatives with cancer. Solidarity (and something else). The big question is … to what extent are these challenges effective as fundraising campaigns? Do they have more implications? Do they compensate for the impact of the tests on the runners? The undeniable thing is that in cases such as Verdeliss, in which the protagonist is a influencerthe challenge has another consequence: expands clearly Its visibility and media impact, reinforcing an exhibition that is already considerable in networks. In the case of the Basque athlete, before even the running shoes, It transcended that its marathons would star in a documentary for Movistar Plus. Sanjuan Explain who has recorded another for Prime Video and Turull’s career have also been Video captured. The three add thousands of followers in Instagram either YouTubewhich gives more visibility to your deeds. The key: money. Another key is the cost that the challenges and funds that collect. Sanjuan explains, for example, that during his last challenge he had to sleep on flights low cost, And he says: “It has cost us the return to the world 2,800 euros.” “He ate what they gave us on the plane and slept in tiny seats.” In the case of Verdeliss the intercontinental challenge, which implied several flights, was made within the framework of the World Marathon Challengea circuit that demands considerable payment from participants. The mail assures That the Basque has disbursed around 39,000 euros, although she guarantees: “Everything leaves my pocket.” Between them they gathered more than 50,000 euros for their respective solidarity causes, but it is also true that there are other solidarity actions, such as auctionscollections or Exhibitionsthat gather thousands of euros without … Read more

The extreme cold has not touched Spain for two years and experts fear that we are about to see a third. With all that implies

by

Spring is just around the corner and, we like it or not, this means that we can start drawing conclusions. The first is that every minute that passes is more likely to finish winter without seeing any “cold wave.” And that is not even what most worries meteorologists. Because the real problem is that it would be the second consecutive winter without cold waves and a third would be at hand. With all that this entails. Isn’t it a bit precipitated to give the winter for dead? The truth is not. Although this week an extremely cold mass of air will cover a good part of Europe, Spain will escape from it. And on March 1 (which is when climate spring begins) is very close to be able to house realistic hopes about an extreme cold episode. And, in the background, what we are going to see this week summarizes very well what has been going on two winters: we have not suffered powerful cold irruptions. They have all stayed north. It is a story that is repeated again and again. But it’s not so weird either, right? That is true. The cold episodes become more and more rare in Spain. In fact, this January can only be described as very warm (Although we have suffered a handful of cold nights). A example that Roberto Granda puts It is that of Molina de Aragón. The average minimum between 1991 and 2020 is -3.3º, but this year it has been at -0.3. The data speak for themselves. In the end, As I pointed out A few years ago our partner Javier Pastor, “is not that it is very cold now, it is that we do not do it because it is no longer so common.” With this in mind, the question begins to be … how long can this last? “Unusual and worrying.” That is, what would happen if the winter of 2026 is still on the same line? The answer, According to Samuel Biener de Meteoredit is summarized in those two words: “Unusual and worrying.” Because we have documented other consecutive warm winters (those of 97 and 98, those of 2000 and 2001 or those of 2023 and 14); But we have not seen three consecutive yet. And we know it will arrive. Because, As Biener points outwarm winters are being increasingly frequent. It is a matter of time that we fit three. And what is the problem? More than a problem (that too), we talk about a fear: that warm winters stop being an anomaly and become the norm. That change is a large-scale disruption of the country’s socio-ecological system. It is no accident that, a few months after the drought, The data begin to be so bad. Again. Not only climatic pressures They hit us stronger than everthe thing is They don’t let us replenish. And that will lead us to the edge of the precipice again and again. Yes it’s true. The current climate is full of paradoxes: Historical ice minimums live with snow maximumstudies on The weakening of the Gulf current They coexist with others that point to nothing has changed in substantial terms and thus a long etcetera. However, there is something that Yes we know is that we are vulnerable And if we don’t prepare ourselves, Let’s be much more.
