Dyson is opening its horizons in the vacuum segment. The British firm is an institution in wireless vertical vacuuming and its classic sled vacuum cleaners continue to be a master purchase, but leaving those formats to find its place in others like robot vacuum cleaners It is costing him, among other things, because The competition coming from China is fierce. Well, Dyson has just presented its candidacy in a niche that today speaks Chinese: it has just launched its PencilWash, an ultralight electric mop. An unmistakable stylish design. The format may change, but the design and colors chosen leave no room for doubt: we are looking at a Dyson. Matte finishes, bright shades, those lace pieces with their iconic red button. But it is also differential: while the Roborock F25 Ace Pro either Dreame H15 Pro They are heavy and bulky, the English company is practically a stick in a total display of minimalism. Although this is essentially because what Dyson brings is different and one of a kind. According to the manufacturer, it weighs only 2.2 kilograms and its handle is less than four centimeters in diameter, which anticipates agile handling and good ergonomics (at least, an experience reminiscent of the usual mop) when sliding it across the floor of the entire house. In addition, it bends down up to 170 degrees to clean under furniture. Dyson The roller is the jewel in the crown. Although ergonomics and handling are important, what makes the difference in a cleaning device is what elements it uses. In the case of the Dyson PencilWash, it is a high-density microfiber roller (72,000 filaments per square centimeter) that rotates at 650 revolutions per minute. Dyson Goodbye to stains and spilled liquids. We mentioned above two models of vacuum cleaners-scrubbers from Chinese brands, however Dyson’s is an electric mop without that suction part (it also does not have space to house a powerful motor for suction). Of course, it comes with a hygienic filter to trap bacteria and minimize odors. In addition, the roller provides hydration (which you can adjust) to always use clean water in the cleaning process. And it’s not just limited to mopping floors: it’s capable of dealing with accidents like dropping coffee or dried stains. However, it has a detergent for hard floors for a more thorough cleaning. Dyson The wonder of putting everything on a stick. Dyson has done a true work of engineering art to integrate the components into such a minimal structure. However, its figures are solvent for medium-sized homes: according to the brand, with its 300 ml of clean water tank it is capable of cleaning up to 110 square meters of surface. As for autonomy, it is half an hour but its battery is interchangeable. Dyson Price and availability. The new Dyson PencilWash is available from today, February 19, at an official retail price of 349 euros and can be purchased from its official distributors.

Google just launched the Google Pixel 10aits new mid-range terminal. He Google Pixel 9a It worked amazingly last year, being one of the most recommended mid-range for those looking for a good photography experience. This year’s model seeks to stay on that same path, offering a similar design, although not the same, and a clear commitment to computational photography. The terminal will be available starting at 549 euros, the same price as last year. And it makes sense, since the improvements in the technical sheet, in the pure and simple components, are scarce. There are some specific new features that we will detail below, but the new features come in the software, an aspect that Google has more than mastered. Google Pixel 10a technical sheet Google Pixel 10a dimensions and weight 153.9 x 73 x 9mm 183 grams screen 6.3-inch pOLED (Actua Display) FullHD+ resolution (2,424 x 1,080 pixels) 422 dpi 20:9 format Refresh rate: 60-120 Hz Maximum brightness: 2,000 nits Peak brightness: 3,000 nits Gorilla Glass 7i HDR processor Google Tensor G4 ram memory 8GB internal storage 128/256 GB rear camera Wide Angle 48 MP, f/1.7, FOV 82º, Super Res Zoom x8 Wide angle: 13 MP, f/2.2, FOV 120º OIs+EIS 4K Video@60 FPS front camera 13 MP f/2.2, FOV 96.1º 4K Video@30 FPS battery 5,100 mAh 45W fast charging Qi wireless charging (10W) operating system Android 16 7 years of updates CONNECTIVITY USB Type C 3.2 Dual SIM (nanoSIM+eSIM) WiFi 6E 5G Bluetooth 6 NFC GPS OTHERS Google AI IP68 resistance fingerprint reader 2x microphones PRICE From 549 euros 10 GOOGLE APPS THAT COULD HAVE SUCCESSFUL When something works… Google Pixel 10a | Image: Google The Google Pixel 10a is practically identical to the previous model. At first glance it is the same, but there is a subtle difference: the camera module no longer protrudes. Not that I did it much before, but now the lenses are completely integrated into the chassis. The back is completely smooth, something that those who hate the phone to wobble will appreciate. And really, that is the most striking change in terms of design, beyond the colors. Otherwise, the phone is identical to the previous model. Same finish, same screen size, practically the same. Now, there are two key differences: the brightness and the protection of the glass: He maximum brightness It is 2,000 nits compared to the 1,800 nits of the Pixel 9a. The peak brightness, for its part, increases by 300 nits, going from 2,700 to 3,000 nits. The protective glass on the panel changes from Gorilla Glass 3 to Gorilla Glass 7i. According to Google, it has better resistance to abrasions and shocks. Google Pixel 10a | Image: Google Another change is found in the battery or, rather, in the power of fast charging. The device continues to mount a 5,100 mAh batterybut fast charging goes from 30 to 45W as long as we use a compatible charger. And that’s all in terms of hardware, because the remaining technical sheet is identical to that of the last model. The Pixel 10a mounts a pOLED panel 6.3 inches with FullHD+ resolution and 120 Hz refresh rate, as well as the same Google Tensor G4 processor as the Pixel 9a and the same amount of RAM and storage. It comes out, yes, with Android 16 and the promise of seven years of updates. Google has not detailed whether it is seven years of software or seven years in total (Android versions, Pixel Drops and security patches). It incorporates everything expected in terms of connectivity, with the update to Bluetooth 6.0that the USB is now USB 3.2 and the Satellite SOS service (emergency calls via satellite). It is the first time that a Pixel a incorporates this function, until now exclusive to the Pixel 9 and 10. Google Pixel 10a | Image: Google As for the camera, the same batch of sensors as the last generation (48-megapixel wide-angle and 13-megapixel wide-angle) and lots and lots of AI. New features include Auto Best Take and Camera Coach. The first helps everyone look good in the photo by analyzing the frames, while the second uses Gemini models to guide composition, lighting, etc. AI plays a fundamental role in the Google experienceso we will also use it for digital zoom of up to eight times and editing. The latter is quite nice, and the Google Pixel 10a allows us to edit photos using voice. You just have to ask your mobile phone and Gemini will be in charge of making the appropriate changes. Versions and price of the Google Pixel 10a Google Pixel 10a | Image: Google He Google Pixel 10a It can be purchased from March 5, although reservations begin today. Its price is 549 euros for the 8/128 GB version and, although Google has not revealed the price of the version with more capacity at the time of writing these lines, it can be expected to be similar to last year: 649 euros for 8/256 GB.

There was a day when that t-shirt you are wearing was made in Spain. It’s almost hard to believe it now that globalization has brought the mass manufacturing of T-shirts, pants and dresses to China, Vietnam or Bangladesh. Today, decades after that happened, Temu and Shein want to make us a new suit with fast fashion even more fastwith compulsive purchases and products that They flood the streets due to their low price. There is no doubt that They have made us Europeans a suit. And if we’re talking cars, that suit is custom made. We were thinking of stopping Chinese electric cars with tariffs. These seemed like the great threat, the paradigm shift facing the European industry. But not. Chinese manufacturers have understood well that not all Europe is the same. That not all of us need or want an electric car. The combustion engine continues to be useful and attractive to a large part of the population. And when combined with a large battery they have the best product for many. Electric in everyday life, peace of mind for traveling. Plug-in hybrids are another one of those tailored suits that have arrived from China. The European Union has not imposed tariffs on these. The problem is that you can see the seams on this Jaecoo 7 SHS. Jaecoo 7 SHS technical sheet Jaecoo 7 SHS Body type. Five-seater SUV. Measurements and weight. 4.50 meters long, 1.86 meters wide and 1.68 meters high. Wheelbase of 2.67 meters. Trunk. 340 liters. Maximum power. 340 HP for the PHEV.

No. Price and launch. PHEV from 38,900 euros before aid. Understanding the market Not all of Europe is advancing at the same pace. According to ACEA data9.4% of cars sold in Europe in 2025 were plug-in hybrids. Although they increased by 33.4% compared to the previous year, the figures are very far from the 17.4% market share of the electric car. A technology supported, above all, by Germany and Francecountries with greater purchasing power than Spain, in which they increased by 43.4% and 12.5%. Together they sold about 772,000 electric cars, more than 40% of the cars sold in Europe. The data contrasts with the Spanish. Here the plug-in hybrid It sold more than the electric one (9.52% market share compared to the 8.39% market share of the pure electric one). And in the first data from January the advantage is widening in favor of the plug-in with a combustion engine, according to Anfac data. The sale of Chinese cars in Spain also contrasts with the rest of Europe. These companies have not hesitated to enter the continent through our country, aware that we are less loyal to our brands, that we look for more affordable cars or with best quality-equipment-price ratio. And there, Chinese plug-in hybrids have a lot to say, with fewer ties than an electric car and without the obligation to pay tariffs that mitigate their competitiveness in the final price compared to traditional firms. It is no coincidence that, as of January, three of the 10 best-selling plug-in hybrid cars are Chinese. He BYD Seal U aspires to repeat as the best-selling plug-in hybrid in Spain but the Omoda 9 and the Lynk&Co 01. All of them are cars that want to offer a good image, great autonomy and a lot of space for less money than their competitors. In that same space, the Jaecoo 7 SHS wants to compete, the plug-in hybrid version, of a car that we already had the opportunity to test briefly in its gasoline version and that left us with some doubts about its behavior but for which we saw a very clear market niche in a Spain eager for an affordable offer that does not want to give up the pyrotechnics of modern cars. Neither yes, nor no, nor quite the opposite If the Jaecoo 7 reminds you of a Land Rover, let me tell you that I understand you. It is not a coincidence because Chery (group to which Jaecoo belongs) and Land Rover They have been and are partners in China. The proposal, from what I get, I like. The car attracts attention and attracts the eyes of those looking for a compact vehicle that treads in the 4.50 meter area but that provides a feeling of greater volume or packaging. Inside, things are different. Like? I think it draws attention. And all-screen cars continue to attract attention and feel groundbreaking. Maybe not among car enthusiasts but among those who are approaching the new car market for the first time after many years. Let us remember that The average age of the Spanish vehicle fleet is 14.5 years. It is through the eyes where it enters the Jaecoo 7 SHS and most of the Chinese proposals. The client, who is also evaluating a Dacia Duster and you have found a very plastic and certainly rough interior, you sit here in a good electric seat, with soft materials within reach and a 14.8-inch screen with very good visual quality. Through the window, the salesperson shows you an endless list of equipment that the car already includes as standard.

Time flies as if we didn’t realize it. It has been almost three years since BYD was presented in Spain. He did it with a presentation in Madrid in which he brought three electric cars. Two of them (Tang and Han) with a clear aspirational focus, proof of what they were capable of doing. The third was the BYD Atto 3, a car for the general public. That day we had the opportunity to get on it. A car that left a very good impression on us and that, without a doubt, anticipated that what we would see from BYD was going to be very worthwhile. But that car came with some rocks in its backpack. The battery remained at 60 kWh and the face power at just 88 kW in direct current. Figures that have been complicating their sales. Now BYD is coming to solve the problem with a BYD Atto 3 EVO, which is a completely new car to improve and expand the technical characteristics of this electric SUV. Technical specifications of the BYD Atto 3 EVO byd atto 3 EVO BODY TYPE. five-seater SUV MEASUREMENTS AND WEIGHT. 4,455 meters long, 1,875 meters wide, 1,615 meters high and 2,720 meters wheelbase. 2,160 kg weight.

Yes, I know it’s not my best phrase but it explains why in less than three years the brand has launched the renewal of a car that was already among the 10 best-sellers in our country in 2025. In China, the production and renewal rates are very high. Workers from Chinese brands tell usand it is something that we have also heard about with BYD, that China has blown up the traditional times that were available to develop a car. Normally, a generation of a car for a traditional brand lasted between six and eight years, with an aesthetic renewal after its commercial half-life. Times are now moving at a different pace.. China lives in continuous need to renew models given its aggressive price war. It is added that the electric car is a new technology that is advancing at a good pace in its developments. To this we add that BYD has begun to understand what the European market demands better than when it arrived. Now their cars have more batteries and they have a serious bet on the plug-in hybrid market. That is why the great novelty of this BYD Atto 3 EVO is the expansion of its battery. The car is now built on the e-Platform 3.0 which has 800 volt technology for a battery that grows to 74.8 kWh and a maximum charging power of 220 kW. In this way, the car can go from 10% to 80% autonomy in 25 minutes. Accompanies this increase in battery two potential versions. The Design version is rear-wheel drive and has 313 HP, with acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.5 seconds. The option with all-wheel drive is the Excellence and reaches 449 HP thanks to two electric motors, which allows the car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds. The difference with the outgoing model is substantial because the car has gone from being an interesting vehicle for the urban environment but that required some patience for a long trip to a car completely capable of being that car for everything. BYD announces a range for the Excellence version of 470 kilometers according to the WLTP mixed cycle. The Design option, the least powerful, increases the autonomy in the mixed cycle up to 510 kilometers. For a realistic measurement on the road, if the car moves between 20 and 22 kWh/100 km we would be talking about about 350 kilometers between recharges. All it takes is lowering that consumption would bring us closer to 400 kilometers between recharges. Furthermore, with these changes, the BYD Atto 3 EVO has increased the space for the rear trunk, which now reaches 490 liters, to which another 101 liters must be added in the front trunk. In the technological section of the cabin, this new generation already receives the infotainment system that we have seen in the latest models of the Chinese brand, with integrated Google services and a voice assistant powered by AI. The screen is 15.6 inches and the instrument panel grows to 8.8 inches. The new BYD electric car also has NFC access, cooled wireless charging for the mobile phone, V2L function to charge devices thanks to the car battery and, in the upper segment, the Head-Up Display and heated seats are added. The car is now available and BYD has announced the following prices: Version RRP Price with aid + discounts Financed price + discounts + aid Design (510 km autonomy) 42,990 euros 33,455 euros 30,455 euros Excellence (470 km autonomy) 45,990 euros … Read more

Netflix presents all its new features for 2026, and there is a genre that is an undisputed winner

by

We have had the opportunity to attend the presentation of Netflix’s plans in Spain for 2026. Except for a couple of very specific successes, such as the ‘Peaky Blinders’ movie or the fourth season of ‘The Bridgertons’, the presentation focused on Spanish productions. And two things caught our attention: the decisive commitment that the platform makes to blockbusters with technical and artistic equipment from here and the strong weight that the true crime in the set. Let’s review these news. Netflix and Spanish audiovisual Since Netflix took us to visit their sets and facilities on the outskirts of Madridit was very clear to us that the platform was not here to be a second dish in the panorama of cinema and series. At that time I was in the middle of filming.The snow society‘, a film that gave international prestige to the company’s productions in Spain. Netflix wants to sustain this fame and does so by putting films and series on the table with top-notch casts and crews. These were some of the projects presented: The final problem: With Jose Coronado, Maribel Verdú and Martiño Rivas, based on a novel by Pérez-Reverte. Thanks, team: Comedy with Maribel Verdú, Pedro Casablanc and Alexandra Jiménez Savior: Thriller by Daniel Calparsoro with Luis Tosar and Claudia Salas Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine: Second season of the spin-off of La casa de papel, this time set in Seville and with Andrés de Fonollosa, Inma Cuesta, Michelle Jenner, Joel Sánchez and Tristán Ulloa 53 Sundays: Film by Cesc Gay with Carmen Machi, Javier Gutiérrez, Alexandra Jiménez and Javier Cámara On behalf of another: Film by Oriol Paulo (‘Contratiempo’) with Mario Casas and Blanca Suárez. All the truth of my lies: Based on a novel by Elísabet Benavent, with Daniel Ibáñez and Itziar Manero reality bridge Before entering into the curious trend that many of Netflix’s Spanish productions are following, its immersion in the true crimelet’s stop at a documentary and a series firmly anchored in reality. Rafa: We were not able to see any trailer for this series, but it promises to be the definitive documentary of Rafa Nadalpresenting never-before-seen facets of his career and personality. That: Nothing less than Rafael He made an appearance before journalists, presenting a series that documents his career, with two actors, Javier Morgade and Carlos Santos, giving life to the interpreter at different ages. The singer himself gave official legitimacy to the series, and spoke of how satisfied he was with the result, the setting and what it tells. The appeal of true crime No platform is unaware that the true crime It is one of the most followed genres today. Netflix itself has already influenced the true crime Hispanic with series like ‘The Asunta case‘, ‘Where is Marta?’, ‘The body on fire‘ and many others. Aware of the commercial appeal of this type of story, many of Netflix’s 2026 proposals belong to the genre, including both fiction and documentaries. The crime of Pazos: Tristán Ulloa returns to Galicia after ‘The Asunta case’, although this time on the other side of the law. In it he will play a sergeant of the Vivil Guard convinced that a man has tried to kill his wife despite appearances that they were a perfect couple and that she has been the victim of an attempted robbery. Produces Bambú Producciones, which already did the same with ‘The Asunta Case’. The boy: Mariano Barroso signs this adaptation of the novel by Fernando Aramburu, where the author told the story of Nicasio, an octogenarian who usually goes up to the Ortuella cemetery on Thursdays to visit the grave of his grandson, one of the many children who died in a gas explosion at a school in October 1980. This event, which shocked the Basque people, will show how the accident changed many lives in its day. Miguel Ángel Blanco: The 48 hours that changed everything: A documentary film by Jon Sistiaga and Juanjo López, which will address the two days in which the entire Spain mobilized trying to stop the murder of Miguel Ángel Blanco, a delayed death that left a deep mark. This documentary remembers that moment and how it meant the beginning of the end for ETA. Wolf: We return to Galicia and Tristán Ulloa, although this time in a secondary role compared to the leading role of Luis Tosar. They will do so in a miniseries that will investigate the real case of Manuel Blanco Romasanta, an itinerant tailor who went down in history as the first documented serial killer in Spain, in rural Galicia in the 19th century. During his defense he claimed to be a werewolf, and the abundant documentation on the case supports the development of this new series. In Xataka | There are thousands of people hooked on true crime documentaries on YouTube. The only problem is that they are generated by AI

This tool blocks all AI features and other elements you don’t want from your browser: and it does it without installations

by

Installing a browser is very simple, and companies have taken charge to keep it that way. The really complicated thing is to use it without all the extras that we don’t want and that hinder us when browsing the Internet, which is precisely its original purpose. With that seemingly crazy idea of ​​using a browser only for browsing, a developer has launched “Just the Browser”, a tool that allows you to disable artificial intelligence functions, sponsored content, telemetry and other features that many of us hate in the main browsers. I’ll tell you how it works, because you might be interested. Browsers increasingly saturated with functions The creator of this initiative is Corbin Davenport, software developer and technology writer. Davenport starts from a simple premise: modern browsers have moved away from their basic function to become feature-packed platforms that many users consider distractions. And if you don’t want AI in your browser, it’s becoming increasingly difficult, since both Chrome, Edge and even Firefox They point towards a future full of AI generative, whether you like it or not. Luckily we have measures to solve thisand “Just the Browser” is one of them. The key to Just the Browser: enterprise group policies What’s ingenious about Just the Browser is its approach. And instead of creating a fork of another popular browser (as projects like LibreWolf, Waterfox or Pale Moon do), it uses the group policy settings that Google, Mozilla and Microsoft provide for companies and organizations. These corporate policies allow IT departments to block certain functions on work or school computers. Davenport has taken advantage of this functionality to make it available to individual users who want a cleaner browser. The process does not modify executable files or require additional extensions. It simply applies settings that browsers themselves are designed to honor permanently, something that doesn’t always happen with the settings that companies provide to home users. In Xataka Opera Neon promises to be the future of the browser. It is an ambitious vision yet to mature What exactly does it remove? Just the Browser disables several elements of your browser: Most generative AI features, both cloud and on-premises, with the exception of page translation in Firefox. Shopping integrations: price tracking, coupon codes, loan offers. Sponsored or Third Party Content: Suggested articles on new tab pages, suggested promoted sites. Reminders to set the browser as default. Experiences when launching the browser for the first time and automatic data import. Telemetry and data collection (maintaining crash reporting when the browser allows it as a separate option). Autostart functions with the operating system. According to Davenport, these settings are limited in scope because each user has their own definition of what they consider bloatware. The project does not aim for extreme minimalism or install additional privacy extensions. Simple installation using scripts The tool is available for Windows, macOS and Linux. Your official website offers automated installation scripts that work by running a single command in the system terminal. Users can also download the configuration files directly from their GitHub page to apply them manually. Active policies can be checked at any time by accessing ‘about:policies’ in Firefox or ‘chrome://policy’ in Chromium-based browsers. You may see a “Your browser is being managed by your organization” message, a common browser warning when group policies are applied, but nothing to raise suspicions. The project is completely open source and Davenport hopes the community will help keep configurations up to date as browsers evolve. {“videoId”:”x883ph8″,”autoplay”:true,”title”:”From CHROME to VIVALDI: the 7 BEST BROWSERS to CHOOSE”, “tag”:”webedia-prod”, “duration”:”475″} Limitations At the moment, the tool only works on desktop computers. There is no support for mobile devices, although there are already users who have published requests on the GitHub page to add compatibility on Android and iOS systems. Keep in mind that the effectiveness of Just the Browser depends on browsers continuing to respect these group policies. If Google, Mozilla, or Microsoft decide to remove or modify these business controls, the settings may stop working. However, since these policies are designed for corporate clients, they are unlikely to be removed without notice.

Raspberry Pi has announced the launch of its new AI HAT+ 2 accessory, a complementary board for the Raspberry Pi 5 which promises to expand its capabilities for uses that involve generative artificial intelligence systems for a modest price. The board incorporates the Hailo-10H neural accelerator and 8 GB of dedicated RAM, features that according to the company will allow large language models (LLMs) to be run directly on the device without the need for an internet connection. Below these lines we tell you all the details. Raspberry AI HAT+ 2, technical sheet Raspberry AI HAT+ 2 processor Hailo-10H AI (40 TOPS inference performance at INT4) memory 8GB RAM workload Computer vision inference and generative AI models Software integration Full integration with Raspberry Pi camera stack Compatibility Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 facility Includes 16 mm stackable header, spacers and screws (optional heatsink) price 130 dollars Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ 2, 8 GB RAM (add-on board to Raspberry Pi 5) The price could vary. We earn commission from these links A plate for local models The AI ​​HAT+ 2 represents a leap compared to its predecessor, launched just over a year ago. While the original AI HAT+ focused exclusively on computer vision tasks, such as object detection, pose estimation or scene segmentation, this new model seeks to cover an increasingly growing interest in run language models locally and without needing to be connected to the internet. According to Raspberry Pi, the board offers 40 TOPS of inference performance (at INT4) thanks to the Hailo-10H chip. The incorporation of 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM on the board itself is the most notable novelty, as it frees up the Raspberry Pi 5’s processor and RAM for other tasks while the neural accelerator takes care of AI processing. Several language models with between 1 and 1.5 billion parameters will be available at launch, including DeepSeek-R1-Distill, Llama 3.2, and different versions of Qwen. The company assures that they will soon add larger models and that users will be able to adjust these models to specific use cases using techniques such as LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation). Beyond paper Along with the benefits that the complementary board promises, it is good to know that the Hailo 10H chip that it incorporates is limited to a power of 3W, which means that, although it translates into better energy efficiency if we compare it with the chip that includes the Raspberry Pi 5 itself, this power limitation makes it The add-on board offers lower raw performance than the Raspberry Pi 5 itself. Additionally, while the extra 8GB of RAM is tremendously useful, it’s worth noting that the 16GB version of the Raspberry Pi 5 board itself also outperforms the add-on board in this regard. We must keep in mind that many medium-sized and quantized language models usually use more than 10 GB of RAM, so the AI ​​HAT+ 2 would be limited to smaller models. However, this is a very interesting solution to have the Raspberry Pi 5 use the performance of the add-on board to run models while using the resources of the main board for any other task. Who is it intended for? The AI ​​HAT+ 2 maintains the computer vision capabilities of its predecessor and, according to the Raspberry Pi, can simultaneously run vision and language models. The board could find its niche in power-constrained applications that need to combine vision processing and language model inference, such as industrial automation systems or IoT devices. It may also be useful as a development kit for companies planning to integrate the Hailo-10H chip into their own products. For users simply looking to run language models locally on a Raspberry Pi, the most practical option is still to purchase a Raspberry Pi 5 with 16GB of RAM. Price and availability The Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ 2 now It is available for $130.although to buy it in Spain it will depend on the price of the official distributors.

how to remove all AI features easily with RemoveWindowsAI

by

Let’s explain to you how to disable native AI features of Windows 11, so you can disable them. These features can be useful if you like to use the artificial intelligencealthough they can also slow down your computer and compromise your privacy. Therefore, a developer has created an open source tool called RemoveWindowsAI. This tool It is a script with which almost all the AI ​​functions that Microsoft has added to Windows will be disabled, and all of this without having to install anything to make it as easy as possible. What functions does this script remove? What RemoveWindowsAI does is remove many AI components and functions in Windows, so you can no longer use them. What it does is the following: Disable Copilot Disable Recall Disable Input Insights and typed data collection Disable Copilot in Edge Disable Image Creator in Paint Remove AI Fabric Service Disable AI Actions Disable AI in Paint Disable Voice Access Disable AI Voice Effects Disable AI in Settings Search RemoveWindowsAI also disables the reinstallation of packages related to AI functions, so that when Windows detects that it does not work it does not activate them again. It does this by tricking Windows and installing a command that tells it that there are new versions of these functions. It also disables other features such as AI rewrite in notepad. Not all functions can be removed with this scriptalthough the creator’s idea is that almost all of them or at least the main ones are no longer present in Windows. How to use RemoveWindowsAI in Windows 11 The first thing you have to do is open Windows PowerShell with administrator permissions. To do this, press the start menu and type PowerShell. When you put the mouse over the tool, in the options that appear click on Run as administrator. Once you have opened PowerShell as an administrator, simply you have to paste this code and press Enter. The code is the following: & ((scriptblock)::Create((irm “https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zoicware/RemoveWindowsAI/main/RemoveWindowsAi.ps1”))) When you write this code with all the symbols, a window will open where you can go marking all the features that you can disable. When you have all downloaded, click on the button Apply that appears green and that’s it. There is also a script to install classic applications of Paint or notepad without artificial intelligence. For that, you just have to run the code: & ((scriptblock)::Create((irm “https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zoicware/RemoveWindowsAI/main/RemoveWindowsAi.ps1”))) -nonInteractive -InstallClassicApps photoviewer,mspaint,snippingtool,notepad In Xataka Basics | Windows 10 is dead: what happens if you still have it installed, what dangers there are, and how to update to Windows 11

New KIA EV2, features, price, technical sheet

by

Not all electric cars are designed to convince the same type of driver. Some seek to demonstrate how far technology can go; others simply fit into real life. He Kia EV2 It clearly belongs to this second group. A small, electric SUV made in Europe which is presented as the starting point of the brand’s electric range. Its formula is quite specific: make sense for those looking to make the leap to an electric car without spending too much. The EV2 is a vehicle that Kia fits within the B segment, the second most popular in Europe. Its development is based on a specific electrical architecture and a format designed to combine contained dimensions with a five-door configuration and elevated stance. Within the brand’s catalogue, it is positioned as the smallest model in its electric offering, a positioning that conditions both its design, its specifications and its general approach.

The first has a 42.2 kWh battery, while the second increases the capacity to 61.0 kWh. Kia esteem for them ranges of up to 317 and between 440 and 448 kilometers respectively, figures corresponding to the cycle WLTP. We are faced with a double proposal that allows the vehicle to be adjusted to different use profiles, from regular urban trips to a greater margin for longer journeys without frequent recharging. If we focus on the charging system, both versions use a 400 V architecture and support fast charging in direct current, with times that Kia places between 29 and 30 minutes depending on the battery. In alternating current, the EV2 supports powers of 11 kW and 22 kW, a combination that expands the possibilities both in the home environment and in the public network. By dimensions, the EV2 is around four meters in length, a size that is especially common in the European B-SUV segment. This format, of course, is convenient for moving in urban environments. Kia combines compact proportions with design features that reinforce that perception, such as the raised stance and marked wheel arches, without giving up a line designed for everyday use. Beyond the exterior size, the use of interior space is one of its key arguments. With a wheelbase of 2,565 millimeters, the EV2 offers four or five-seat configurations and a sliding and reclining rear seat system that allows you to prioritize legroom or cargo capacity. In its most forward position, the trunk reaches up to 403 liters, to which is added a 15-liter front trunk. In the technological section, Kia equips the EV2 with a digital architecture similar to that of other models, such as the EV3. The ccNC system is articulated around three screens, with 12.3-inch digital instrumentationcentral touch screen of the same size and a specific 5.3-inch module for air conditioning. To adjust the access price, the model can also mount ccNC Lite, a simplified version that maintains the logic of use and basic functions. In both cases, the system allows wireless OTA updates, although Kia points out that ccNC Lite does not support remote OTA map updates and limits some functions. On the other hand, EV2 incorporates a complete range of ADAS systems aimed at both protection and comfort. The list includes level 2 highway driving assistance, advanced collision prevention systems, adaptive cruise control and environmental monitoring solutions. In the field of parking, it can incorporate a 360-degree view camera and remote key parking, transferring common technologies in higher segments to a compact format. Production of the EV2 will follow a staggered schedule. Manufacturing will begin in the Žilina plant, in Slovakiawith the standard autonomy version in February 2026 and will be expanded in June with the variants with higher battery capacity and the GT-Line finish. For now, Kia has not specified an exact date of arrival at dealerships and simply points out that the commercial launch will be confirmed closer to the start of sales. Price and availability of the new KIA EV2 The price is, today, the big piece of information that Kia has not put on the table. The brand has not communicated an official figure, but it has left relevant signals about its positioning. According to Automotive Newsthe CEO of Kia Europe, Marc Hedrichavoided specifying a starting price, although he did not deny that it could be below 30,000 euros. In this scenario, always prior to aid, it would be necessary add the state and regional incentives in force in Spainwhich can significantly reduce the final outlay. All in all, the EV2 is emerging as a particularly attractive option for many buyers looking to make the jump to electric without going to high ranges, although not necessarily for all profiles or budgets.

features, price and technical sheet

Mazda had no intention of jumping into the electric car. At least, he didn’t until he saw that the electric car worked for him. The performance of Mazda 6e in china made the company change its mind. With development that had largely fallen on Changan, getting on the electric car bandwagon was easier. If it worked, why not try it in Europe? It is still early to know the real performance of the model but one thing is certain: We already have the Mazda CX-6e with us. The company has presented the electric SUV that will accompany the sedan. Same spirit as its brother but now in SUV format. Mazda CX-6e technical data sheet Mazda CX-6e Body type Five-seater saloon Measurements and weight 4,850 meters long, 1,935 meters wide and 1,620 meters high. Wheelbase of 2,902 meters. Weight to be confirmed Trunk 468 liters. Maximum power 190 kW (258 HP) and 290 Nm. WLTP consumption 18.9 kWh/100 km DGT environmental distinctive Zero emissions. Driving aids (ADAS) Mandatory by the European Union. Others 26 inch screen Head-Up Display. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility. Electric hybrid. No. Plug-in hybrid. No. Electric Yeah. 78 kWh LFP battery (484 kilometers of autonomy) with 190 kW (258 HP) motor. Price and release Available summer 2026. Price to be confirmed. Why does an electric car have less autonomy than advertised? A 26-inch screen that sums it all up The electric car has become a headache for low-volume companies. Those with the muscle of the Volkswagen group have in their hands the ability to make investments profitable with a multitude of brands but companies like Mazda, with much more discreet sales, They need their shots to be as accurate as possible.. That is why their room for maneuver is narrower and they share developments where it is more difficult to make a car profitable. It is no coincidence that the Mazda 2, a small vehicle with a tighter profit margin, is a Toyota Yaris. And it is also normal that without a clear and decisive embrace from the public for the electric car, the company would resist to launch a new model on the market. However, its association with Changan in China has given it a wild card, an extra ball to test to what extent the public is interested in a Mazda electric car with a minimal investment. In the Asian country, the Mazda 6e was well received and that is why the company has tested it in Europe where it has obtained very good reviews but whose sales performance remains to be seen. The good thing for Mazda is that the risk is minimal. The burden of developing the car has fallen on Changan, who have also released an SUV version of the model in China. Mazda, for its part, has put its design and hallmarks. In fact, he assures that the cars that arrive in Europe are tuned by his engineers. And all that is what we find in the Mazda CX-6e, present at the Brussels Motor Show. On the outside, the Mazda CX-6e is everything we could waitr of a car from the Japanese company. Soft and rounded shapes with sharp headlights and a front lighting grill as we already saw in the sedan. But inside it maintains all the Chinese flavor of its Asian brother. And Mazda breaks with all the patterns that we had seen in the brand with a gigantic 26-inch screen and 5k resolution. Until very recently the company had defended small screens, away from the driver and even without touch functions when driving. Now it comes with a car without an instrument panel that focuses all the information on a panel that goes from driver to co-driver. Mazda says its 26-inch screen does not distract from driving The company ensures that the information can be divided into two clearly differentiated sections for the driver and the passenger, it has voice recognition in nine languages ​​and a Head-Up Display that reproduces the navigation instructions so it offers “complete information without distracting the driver”, in the company’s words. It also has gesture control to navigate through sound functions and skip the use of buttons. Digital buttons, of course, because physicists are conspicuous by their absence. The infotainment panel is compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay and keeps the climate controls close at hand on a lower bar. On the gigantic screen you can control all driving assistance functions such as emergency braking systems, lane departure prevention systems or adaptive cruise control. The interior will have synthetic leather upholstery that will be available in three colors (beige, black and an amethyst and white combination, depending on the finish chosen). In addition, it is expected that, as with the sedan, it will have great interior habitability. The trunk is 468 liters. Regarding the battery, The Mazda 6e arrived with two battery capacities. On this occasion, Mazda will only offer one with the Mazda CX-6e in a combination that, if the sedan’s consumption is maintained, can give very good results. Thus, the car arrives equipped with 78 kWh LFP battery and a 190 kW (258 HP) engine that promises 484 km of autonomy according to the WLTP cycle. In the saloon, charging power was one of the car’s weaknesses. In the SUV, it comes with a good 195 kW of peak power when recharging, promising to go from 10% to 80% in 24 minutes. In this way, it is expected that with a recharge of just over 20 minutes the car will have between 300 and 350 real kilometers available before the next stop.
