We are starting the month of October, but it is impossible to lose sight of the end of last month that Huawei made a new batch of products. As usual, the company has renewed several lines with new devices that have a lot to say. In short, we have two new watches, a tablet and headphones. The good news? All these devices already have an offer in the brand’s official store. The Huawei Watch GT6 come with one of the best autonomies that are Let’s start with the two new watches presented by the Chinese manufacturer. These two belong to their “GT” series, watches that are aimed at monitoring physical activity and health. These two models, the Huawei Watch GT 6 and Huawei Watch Gt 6 Pro, They are similar to each other in almost all their characteristicsalthough there are differences in certain characteristics that are worth pointing. Although both several interesting attributes have, let’s start with the main course: autonomy. As Huawei explains, both the GT 6 model and its pro variant are capable of offering up to 21 days of autonomyincredible figures. This figure is much higher than that offered by other smart watches such as Apple Watch Ultra 2among others. Beyond autonomy, it is also worth noting that they come with An ultra -precise GPS. If we plan to go on a route with the bike or run through remote sites, we can come great to know our position to the millimeter. In this way, we can also plan the routes and go safer, at the same time controlling our progress. GPS does not imply that it is only designed to practice outdoor sports. In fact, it comes with 100 different sports modes, so it is very easy to find what we need every time. It also has A very advanced fall detection system (Able to issue a SOS alert) and detect parameters that we do not usually see in other watches, such as the emotional state. Everything we have commented so far is common for the two new Huawei watches, so now it is time to talk about the differences of the pro model. These focus on the materials of the sphere, Since the Watch GT 6 pro bets on titanium. We can also get a titanium strap for this model, which is exclusive to it. Let’s talk about the launch offer. The first thing we have to keep in mind is that we can use the code in our purchase A60xatakathanks to which we will have a direct discount of 60 euros.

The first of these devices is the new 12 X Matepad, a 12 -inch tablet that is ideal for working or helping us at the university. Its screen, in fact, uses the company’s Papermatte technology and offers Resolution 2.8 K and 144 Hz. Another interesting point of the same is that it comes with the M-Pencil Pro, an ideal pencil to take notes or draw. It has 3 different tips, which allows a very versatile tool to have. At the performance level, it also offers an important leap with respect to the previous model, as well as A 10,100 mA batteryh with sufficient autonomy to offer 14 hours of video.

France has tried by all means that CAF does not take “the contract of the century” of the Belgian trains. There is good news

by

The contract continues. That is what the Belgian responsible for one of the country’s greatest tenders have said. The so -called “Century Contract” will therefore fall on CAF, the great Spanish rail giant. The Spanish company will be in charge of providing trains to the “Belgian Renfe”. Refused. The State Council of Belgium has spoken. And what has decided is that it rejects the last resort that Alstom had presented in the award contest to provide the CNS (the Belgian Renfe) of a huge battery of trains to modernize much of the fleet. In The mail They detail that the Belgian State Council had already rejected a resource for Siemens last week and now has been dismissed that of Alstom. The process has been especially long and complex with numerous resources presented, comings and goings and reconfirmations. “The contract of the century”. Given the enormous volume of money that will move this contract, it does not seem that the famous denomination of “the contract of the century” is left great. To start, the investment will be 1,695 million euros but if the deadlines and volume of deliveries are met, CAF could receive up to 3.4 billion euros. The amount will be paid for The supply of 500 trains Automotores including three car models with battery hybrid propulsion that will have the task of replacing the old diesel locomotives in those roads that have not yet been electrified. With the rejection of the latest resources, it only remains to negotiate the last details and sign the greatest contract in the history of CAF. Long and complex. Getting with this contract has not been simple for the Spanish company. At the beginning of the year, Alstom and Siemens resorted to the award of CAF to CAF, claiming that the motivations for it were not transparent enough. In April, a Belgian court recommended suspending the contest. During that time, Alstom took the opportunity to press by pointing out that his proposal was better because they have a plant on Belgian soil, emphasizing that the decision to take out this contract would harm the citizens themselves because they were not betting on local employment as a decisive factor. The process, however, continued. However, CAF has had to wait for the Belgian authorities to definitely reject the resource of Siemens and a second resource by emergency presented by Alstom, who insisted again on a supposed lack of transparency. Israel. During the last bars of all this bureaucratic framework, various voices rose to question the award of CAF. They defended that a company that was associated with the Israeli Shapir could not be hired to build and expand the red and green lines of the Light Jerusalem Rail. The project is problematic because it will be built on illegal Israeli settlements. That has caused the Basque company to have been indicated in an official UN report as one of the companies that take revenues from the country’s antipalestine policy. They specify that with this type of works these illegal settlements are helped. 500 million euros. That is what is estimated to take coffee If the Israeli project goes ahead. This is valued at 1.8 billion euros to lift 27 kilometers of roads and 50 new stations. With them we want to connect the West Bank settlements with those of West Jerusalem. The business for CAF does not remain alone in the construction of this light meter. It is also about to decide when it will participate in the management of the lines. At the moment, it is being assessed that its involvement is maintained between 15 and 25 years once between operation. CAF shields that the award of the contract is prior to the Israeli invasion of Palestine. Do not get into. At least that is what they say from SCNB. Appealed by up to four associations that rejected that CAF received this contest for its involvement with the project in the West Bank and Jerusalem, the Belgian operator has responded that it cannot “determine the foreign or commercial policy of the companies involved,” they collect in The mail. Its position is contrary to other companies in the sector. The Norwegian sovereign fund, for example, has retired its investments in Shapir (the partner of CAF in the Israeli project) for the genocide committed in Gaza and the Manager Storeband also took CA from its portfolio for its involvement. The Catalan company Comsa was also part of the consortium that had gained the award of the blue line of the tram to Jerusalem but In 2024 he retired from the project and The Basque Siner announced that it will not serve steel to Israeli companies.

The FBI thought that burning the methamphetamine they had requisition was a good idea. They sent fourteen people to the hospital

by

If you have ever wondered what the police do with the drugs they requisition, surely the Montana Police method, in the United States, does not leave you indifferent. The last stash they have destroyed has made fourteen people have to be treated emergency and has forced to transfer more than 75 animals. What happened. They tell it in Associated Press. The event occurred in an animal shelter in Billings, Montana. The installation has an incinerator for animal corpses, which the authorities occasionally use to destroy illegal substances. In this case it was almost 1kg of methamphetamine. The problem was that, at the beginning of combustion, instead of leaving the extractor, the smoke began to fill the building. They should have had a fan by hand to avoid it, but nobody found it. It is also believed that they did not use the right temperature since, if he had done it, the toxins would have burned and would not have had major consequences. Consequences. Fourteen workers from Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter had to be treated at the hospital after inhaling smoke. The director of the refuge assured Associated Press that employees did not know that the incinerator was used for such purposes and did not give importance to smoke. Among the symptoms they presented had headaches, throat pain, cough and dizziness. They were not the only ones affected, the animals that were in the shelter also inhaled the smoke. At least 75 dogs and cats had to be transferred to reception houses. Fortunately there was no regret victims. Other cases. It is not the first time that drug burning has consequences of this type. In April of this year, Lice Police, in Türkiye, burned 20 tons of marijuanacausing dizziness, nausea and even hallucinations in some of the inhabitants. In 2015 Something very similar happened in Palmerah, Indonesia. How is it done in Spain. It is also incinerated, but more controlled through concessions with waste elimination companies. According to the independent, In 2022 Spain spent 300,000 euros a year on the destruction of shells on two floors that were in Asturias and Toledo. The Grande-Marlaska Minister did not see viable the construction of a specific incinerator for this because it would mean an even greater cost.

We knew that coffee was good for health, but now we have discovered that it is a great ally of our microbiota

by

For years, coffee has not been too well considered. It depends on the place and the historical momentbut the culprit was not so much coffee itself … as caffeine. Although the evidence has managed to deny them, there is still A lot of myths about caffeine and its effects. But something that is also making clear research is beneficial effect of coffee on the body. It depends on the type of tan, of course. And one of the studies More recent links coffee with the intestinal microbiota. Directly, it favors the Bacteria growth in our body. And it is something that fulfills a vital function. The community Microbial of coffee. As we say, different studies on coffee allow you to have discovered your beneficial effects on cardiovascular diseasesthe diabetes or your Effect on the kidneys. In parallel, a relationship between coffee intake had been observed with the increase of certain intestinal bacteria, but the studies were on a small scale. Now, in Nature Microbiology he has Posted a study in which the genomic sequence of the intestinal microorganisms of more than 22,000 people in the United Kingdom and the United States was investigated. They have discovered that coffee drinkers had a different microbiota, with intestinal bacteria such as Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus Eight times more abundant in the microbiota of coffee drinkers than in those who do not ingest this food. And what does that imply. It is not limited to that bacteria, since increases in irmicutes, actinobacteria, actinobacteria were also observed, PREVETELLA, Faecalibacterium and Bifidobacterium, All of them linked to beneficial metabolic effects, such as greater production of short chain fatty acids. What this means is that, thanks to its polyphenols and the soluble fiber it contains, coffee produces some Prebiotic effects that have a direct influence on beneficial bacterial growth. Before I said that it is something that fulfills a vital function, and in this case it is not an exaggeration. Intestinal microbiome bacteria They fulfill functions such as facilitating digestion, strengthening the immune system, regulating inflammation or protecting against pathogens and diseases. Very direct effects of this includes the production of vitamins and enzymes that are not obtained from food, facilitating Digestion of compounds as fiber and starch or Immune system regulation to distinguish between harmful and benign organisms. Four cups. Tim Spector is one of the experts who has supervised the article and, as my colleagues from Straight to the palatethe amount of optimal coffee would be between two and four cups a day. It all depends on the organism of each one and tolerance, but something interesting is that we not only obtain those benefits for the microbiota, but also a a large amount of fiber. Specifically, 1.5 grams of fiber for each cup of Filtrated coffee (There are many ways to prepare it, but filtered or infused is one of those that allows to extract more nutrients), and it is an amount similar to what would be obtained when eating a tangerine And the caffeine, what. And this of the tolerance that each one has to coffee is important because there is a “Limit” in the amount of caffeine That we can take up to be in the healthy segment, but it depends a lot on each person. The good thing is that these positive effects on microbiota have been reported both in the ‘normal’ coffee and in the decaffeinated. If milk is addedIn addition, the amount of polyphenols may slightly decrease, but the balance is still positive. What should not be added is sugarsince there we would be doing more bad than good. But if decaffeinated coffee is consumed, you should have an eye on how the process has been performed. Not all decaffeinated coffees are the same because there are several ways to eliminate (which is not completely eliminated, but is considerably reduced) caffeine, and Not all are equally healthy. To the point that some methods They are under the radar of organizations such as the US FDA. Image | Justin Bhalla In Xataka | There are more and more studies that link coffee with living more.

That’s why the Batching Batching is so good idea

by

If we really want to start eating better, psychologists have Something that can help us. Something that, in addition, can be summarized in one sentence: that “our food must be governed by a plan and not by our mood.” The problem, of course, is that plans sometimes extend checks that our day to day cannot pay. And it is not ours, like He explained to us The professor of the University of Zaragoza, Juan Ramón Barrada, “if you live surpassed by life, leave for tomorrow It is not procrastinating, “is surviving. Therefore, the batching cooking is so good idea. Batching Batching? Are we already with neologies and “modernuras”? Yes and no. Although it is true that it has now become fashionable with that name, the truth is that this strategy is a classic of foods around the world: cooking in a short time all the food of the week, optimizing resources and food preparations. That is, it is about organizing the menu in such a way that each preparation and each food serves to make several dishes. That ensures diversity and reduces preparation time. What advantages do you have? Many, really. How our DAP companions explainit is a strategy that brings us closer to homemade food, friends with the kitchen and allows us to get away from ultraprocessed, Fast food and elaborate food away from home; It allows us to reduce the times we dedicate to the kitchen and organize our food; And finally, it helps us save. But, above all, it can help us control what we eat. Because it is a powerful tool when “facilitating” the fulfillment of those plans we talked about before. After all, one of the main problems we have to carry them out is that, at the time of truth, we do not feel like it. Overwhelmed by day -to -day pressures, our body asks us ‘Conford Food’; Another neologism that comes to say “Leave yourself of zarandajas and give me something that is rich (with all saturated fats, sugars and carbohydrates that is possible)”. And the truth is that this feeling is not going to disappear, but if we have prepared the food – as the batch cooking advises us – to overcome temptation becomes easier. Not only easier, also safer. As Giuseppe Russolillo explainedpresident of the Spanish Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, “the population is not fully aware that the methods that use weight losing are extremes and can put their health at risk and that the recovery of the lost weight is frequent.” This also affects many attempts to eat better. And it is not necessary to be so aggressive. A balanced meal is a day won. Because “for what we can extract from current investigations, there are three tips that can be given to anyone: eat healthy, exercise and accept your body,” Barrada told us. Hence, obsess with weight is a mistake (quite serious, besides) and the best strategy is to introduce small habits in our day to day.

One day, someone thought that a mini with Rolls-Royce interior was a good idea. And what surprised the most were … his carpet

by

The BMW group is particular. For just over 25 years, Bavaria’s firm has been taking other companies under his arms. In 1998, Rolls-Royce became part of it and only three years later, in 2001, Mini did the same. In the mid -50s, the world closely followed the Egyptian nationalization of the Suez Canal. The decision derived, among other things, in a generalized rise in fuels that very hard to the automobile industry. Iconic models were born from that crisis. He Fiat 500 It was one of them. The British answer would arrive with the mini. Both cases shared many similarities: small cars that prioritized the interior space, very practical to move around and with very tight engines to position themselves as affordable and easy to maintain vehicles. Saving the technical conditions of those years, in Mini they managed to carry The engine in front and place it transverselya whole milestone that differentiated him from Fiat 500 himself but also from beetle, the other great supervants of the moment. In both cases, the engine was located in the rear. Almost instantaneously, the mini gained popularity for its extreme lightness and agility. So much so that in 1964 he managed more bizarrest preparations and foster the sports spirit of those light cars that are no longer left. Perhaps that is why it is not so surprised that with Rolls-Royce and Mini under the same umbrella, both companies joined to create a most special piece. Fit a rolls-royce in a four-meter car With the purchase of Mini by BMW, the brand was reborn but did it with very different hallmarks. He collected the retro aesthetics from his ancestors but he was reconverted to offer an urban coolan attractive car in the visual, of premium price but with a very distinctive driving dynamic. The success was immediate with the Company redefinition. The popularity of the first new Mini Cooper was immediate and attracted all eyes. The Cooper S or John Cooper Works versions would arrive. But far from the expected sports options, in 2011 Mini surprised with a most unexpected collaboration. With the Mini Inspired by GoodwoodRolls-Royce tried to fit all the company’s luxury in a car that at that time did not reach four meters .. a kind of miniaturization of the maximum luxury and the most select of the automobile industry that was framed within the Deportivo Mini Cooper S. The car reached the Spanish market with a price at the height of its interiors: 49,500 euros … in 2012. That is, today it would cost almost 65,000 euros if we apply the inflation corresponding to that period. Of course, one of the fortunate thousand who made one of these limited series sold the car last year for 31,000 pounds (35,740 euros) that, adding the corresponding taxes, cost more or less the same as the same as the same as the same as more than a decade. Inside, this particular mini had the classic leather upholstery in ‘Cornsilk Beige’ color typical of British luxury berlins and insertions in walnut wood. The roof was topped in Kashmir The sound system was signed by Harman/Kardon and added less common details in those years in small vehicles such as parking sensors or bi-xenon headlights. Even the browser and automatic change had to be asked as extras, increasing the price of the car by more than 3,000 euros. As a personal anecdote, a few days ago I shared a quick talk with Sergio Ríos (Autobild) and Héctor Ares (usual among our companions of Motorpasion). Both They have been able to drive at some time a rolls-royce And both made reference to a differential detail: the carpets. And is that in the test of Autobild For more than 10 years, its author also stood out from the mini inspired by Goodwood this aspect. In fact, In the article you could read the following: What caught my attention the most when I opened the door for the first time were … the carpets. Yes, you are going to laugh, it is not the element in which I usually look at a car, but those carried by this mini inspired by Goodwood are to take a picture and teach them: they are made of lamb skin, and they are so soft that you want to take off your shoes and drive barefoot. In addition, they are very warm; Of course, they have panic, dust and, of course, the mud Yeah, There were reasons to buy a mini inspired by Goodwood and pay for a four -meter -long car and 184 hp gasoline engine almost the same as for a Porsche Boxster In those years. The first, you had enough money. The second, that you will fall in love with some carpets that were like staying to live in them.

There is a ‘good’ fat that hides a secret to aging better and being fit. It only remains to get the pill

by

Aging is inevitable, and with it it comes A progressive loss of physical capacity that causes it to be more difficult to walk or stand up. This makes Stay fit It becomes much more difficult and therefore the resistance begins to decline. But … what if this decline can be slow down? This is precisely what science is focused on. Fat as anti -aging. Researchers at the Rigers New Jersey Medical School They have discovered That a special type of adipose tissue, known as brown fat, could be the key not only for healthier old age, but also Improve physical performance. A study of great relevance, since it can open a new route in the anti -aging field. The team that has led this research has been able to identify an unusually powerful form of this ‘good fat’ in mice, which not only Increased his life expectancybut improved its exercise capacity by an impressive 30%. Now, the race has begun to be able to replicate these same effects in humans through a drug. Not all fat is bad. When we think of fat, the White fat or white adipose tissue. Its main function is to store excess calories in the form of triglycerides and is the one that can bother us aesthetically throughout our lives. Although in essence it is a large energy deposit. But, nevertheless, there is another type of fat that is much more interesting: brown fat or Brown adipose tissue. Unlike white, brown fat is specialized in burning calories to generate heat in a process called thermogenesis. This is possible thanks to the fact that their cells are full of mitochondria, which are the organelles that act as cellular power plants and that give it its characteristic brown color. In our life where we have more fatty fat in our body is when we are babies, since here it is crucial for Keep body temperature. But when we grow, the brown fat is lost until some cracks are around the neck and shoulders. But here the white fat is the one that dominates our body completely. One step further. Knowledge about brown fat already has a long journey in scientific literature. But it is now when this study goes further to point that it is linked to having a healthier longevity and with a much more appropriate physical exercise. How they knew it. To get to this conclusion, the researchers worked with a genetically modified mouse model to lack a protein called RGS14. The mice without this protein lived approximately 20% than their normal partners, and curiously the females lived more than the males in a pattern similar to that followed by humans. Even at the advanced ages, these mice avoided the typical signs of aging such as body atrophy, hair loss or the graying of the fur. But it does not stay here, since when submitting them to physical tests, the modified mice showed a 30% higher performance, both in distance traveled and in resistance. And all this because mice without RGS14 developed a dense and powerful brown fat than who expressed the protein correctly. The definitive test. To confirm that it was brown fat, and not another effect of genetic modification, scientists conducted a crucial experiment: transplanting the brown ‘supergras’ of mice without RGS14 to normal and healthy mice. The results were overwhelming. The mice that received this transplant improved their ability to exercise in just three days. On the other hand, when brown fat was transplanted from a normal mouse to another, an improvement was also observed, but much more and with eight weeks ahead to manifest its effects. Something that showed that the fat of the genetically modified mice was exceptionally powerful. Because? The mechanism seems to reside in an improvement in blood circulation. The indications suggest that brown fat promotes the creation of new blood cases in the muscles that improves the flow of blood and oxygen during exercise. The goal. Research suggests that this brown fat not only improves physical performance, but also protects against a series of ailments associated with age, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disorders and even cancer and Alzheimer’s. Vatner’s team is already working with collaborators to develop a drug that imitates the effects of this powerful brown fat, hoping to have a compound ready to be tested in approximately one year. But the idea is not only to increase life expectancy, but “healthy life expectancy.” That is, even if you live longer, these ‘extra’ years enjoy good physical and mental health. While we expect that future pill, there are techniques such as deliberate exposure to cold (the famous ice baths) that can naturally increase our brown fat levels. However, as Vatner points out, most people would prefer to take a pill to take an ice cream bath. Images | Tatiana Zanon In Xataka | Our brain has its own backup.

A future where we all wear smart glasses sounds good, until they are taken by the person who is going to shave the crotch

by

You meet in a beauty salon to make Brazilian hair removal and receive a very kind girl. Everything is going well until, in the middle of the work, you realize that it wears a goal, smart glasses capable of recording video. It is what happened to an influencer and his experience opens a new debate about privacy. What happened. The protagonist is Aniesta Navarro, a New York influencer who went to a beauty hall to be made by Brazilian hair removal (for whom he does not know, it consists of the elimination of the hair from the pubic area). Navarro told his experience in Tiktok and The video It already has more than seven million visualizations. In him he tells that the girl who attended her wore target glasses. When asked, the girl assured her that she used them as her graduated glasses and that at that time they were not loaded. The answer. The finish lines have a LED that lights up when they record and was off, but Navarro could not stop thinking if I would be recording, making the experience very uncomfortable. Days later he published Another video In Tiktok where he told that he had sent an email to the company and answered him with a generic message that did not give him too much confidence. As the story went viral, in response to the Washington Posta company spokeswoman insisted that the glasses were turned off. In addition, another Meta spokesman confirmed that manipulating the recording LED goes against service standards. Glasses for all. Mark Zuckerberg says that by 2030 the smartphone will have passed to the background because We will do almost everything through glasses. Although for now it is an emerging product may be right: the market is growing very fast and The success of the Ray-Ban Meta It is promising. What he does not say is what will mean from the point of view of privacy and if we are prepared as a society so that anyone who crosses wearing a camera in the eyes. Cameras everywhere. There are already, but we talk about glasses with a tiny camera that goes unnoticed. Yes, there is a LED that turns on when you record and cannot be deactivated, but there are already those who have found a way to hide it. Even if the LED works, many people do not realize that they are being recorded, as counted This journalist in The Times. It probably has to do with the fact that they are still a new product and is not normalized, but there are those who find it Intrusive and even sinister. More incidents. The Brazilian hair removal has not been the only incident with smart glasses. They count on Futurism That last year an exotic dancer warned about customers who used the Ray-Ban Meta to record the shows. A goalkeeper of a similar club published This video in which he denied the entrance to another client who also carried them. We don’t have to go so far: a few months ago They arrested a man in Barcelona for recording women without their consent using a goal.

Domotizing with sensors seemed good idea. After several days of testing, Ana has discovered what almost no one tells

by

What can go wrong when you try to domote the kitchen and bathroom … even little by little? Well, many things, as you will discover In this new installment of ‘Domotize or die in the attempt’. Ana has proposed to move forward with her connected house, but what seemed a more or less simple installation of sensors It ends up becoming a succession of failed tests, network errors, double -sided tape and various frustrations. In this episode, the goal is clear: protect the water leak house and automate bath lighting, but the process will not be precisely fluid. Nor short. Not simple. Before entering flour, the first logistic obstacle had to be overcome: shipping. One of the packages with the essential sensors had been lost, which kept the entire process in pause. “It seemed that today’s video was not going to arrive, but finally the package appeared,” says Ana, resigned but relieved. With everything already at home, the installation starts: water sensors at key points such as sink or dishwasher, and a first attempt to leave the presence detection system ready in the bathroom ready. What follows, of course, is not a manual installation. Tape, tests and patience: Home automation is taking pace The first sensors to settle were those of water leaks, and the kitchen was the test field. Ana located the three most critical points: sink, dishwasher and washing machine. He prepared to make tests in real conditions. The result was a constant strip and loosen between theory and practice. “It has taken a little more than I expected”, Says after seeing how the sensor does not react instantly to contact with water. From there, homemade adjustments begin. Place the device as centered as possible, trust that it does not move with the passage of the aspirating robot and wait for the time, the time comes, it really works. Everything pointed out that the Valve Controller would be the perfect brooch: a system that, when detecting a leak, would automatically close the passage key. It made sense, it was well thought out and seemed to fit the logic of the rest of the sensors. But when trying to install it, the thing was twisted. Ana discovers that, despite having the pipes in sight, there is not enough space to place the device. “My joy in a well,” summarizes, with a mixture of rage and resignation. The concept was ideal, the impossible execution. It will touch it back. After the reverse with the valve controller, Ana focuses on the other great objective of the episode: install a LED strip behind the bathroom mirror and accompany it with a presence sensor that activates the light automatically at night. It sounds simple, but only in theory. You have to look for the exact placemake sure that you do not activate with cats, find free plugs, and deal with an app that does not want to collaborate. “Ok, great. It’s a bit slow, but it works,” he says when, finally, he gets everything to react … although not quite as he expected. From there, it is time to test, move the sensor, adjust settings and fight with home automation. Will you get it ready? That is another story. After so much effort, Ana manages to launch her night lighting routine in the bathroom. The sensor detects the movement and lights the LED strip … although not always with the desired speed or precision. Sometimes it takes, sometimes it is activated for no reason. “It works, I would tell you that between 85 and 90 % well,” he acknowledges. It is not perfect, but functional enough to keep it installed. Will it end by polishing the failures? Is it enough when they return from the trip? In the video we see how everything has evolved. With part of the system already underway, Ana begins to think about what is coming: a trip, plants, cats … and the terrace, which stays as a pending task for the next chapter. In the next episode we will see how the house prepares for be outwith automatic irrigation system. At the moment, there is something that is still unresolved: the happy water key controller. “I thank you infinite to leave me a comment to see if I can solve it,” he says, leaving the door open to someone having the answer she has not found. And yes, if you want to see how all this ends, The full video awaits you on the Xataka YouTube channel.
