The government wanted to promote the electric car after the Dana with 10,000 euros of help. Everything indicates that he has not delivered any

by

On October 29, 2024, tragedy began. Various autonomous communities of eastern Spain but, above all, the Valencian Community saw how strong rains and the posterior floods left 225 dead in their path and three missing people that have not yet been found. Although the Term Dana refers to an “isolated depression in high levels” (the famous cold drop), in memory it has remained as Dana de Valencia What lived on the border between October and November 2024. Some floods that also left the material damage that affected 360,000 people. Months later we have known that he points to 141,000 cars affected by the floods. Most of them insurmountable although we have had images that leave us some optimism, saving vehicles with half a century behind them. Trying to recover normality, populations faced the challenge of What to do with the greatest scratch in history of Spain and how to recover from the consequences. Among those measures to replenish all those vehicles, At the end of November 2024 the government announced that launched the Plan Reinicia Auto+. With him he wanted to give financial aid to those who had lost his car with the floods, delivering an economic amount for the purchase of a new vehicle. The program contemplated the delivery of aid both for the purchase of new and second -hand vehicles but rewarded those who jump to zero emissions. Specifically, the Aid They are distributed as follows: New vehicles with zero label: 10,000 euros. New vehicles with ECO label or C: 5,000 euros. Second -hand vehicles with zero label: 4,000 euros. Second -hand vehicles with ECO label or C: 2,000 euros. Vehicles for people with reduced mobility will have extra help of 1,000 euros more and 500 euros on three -wheeled motorcycles. Motorcycle aid vary between 2,000 euros and 500 euros depending on whether they are new or second -hand and its ecological rating. The problem is that the Ministry of Industry and Tourism has already submitted the accrediting document with the relationship of the beneficiaries of these aid. But, there is no help to a car of zero emissions. What happens? Aid that seem frozen First of all, the first thing to be clear about is how the aids of the Reinicia Auto+Plan are delivered. As explained in the Article 9 of Royal Decree-Law 8/2024 in which urgent measures are collected to help those affected by the DANA, the procedure is the following: If the client had already bought the car before the aid was opened (they did it on December 18), the dealers had to make an entry to the beneficiaries once the aid was approved with the corresponding file. If the client had not yet bought the car, the concessionaire processed the aid and it was discounted from the final price of the car once all taxes were applied. In The automotive tribune They explain that the first aid began to surrender last February. By then, more than 10,000 subsidies to purchase had been requested and as the delay in the deliveries of the aid was affecting customers, in some cases the vehicles began to be delivered before receiving the money with the concessionaire’s commitment to return that money afterwards. But these grants have only been arriving in vehicles with a C and echo label of the DGT, according to Digital economythat raise the number of aid to More than 25,000 files For this type of vehicles. These aid are reflected in the accrediting document of the beneficiaries of the same. Indeed, as can be seen in this document, there is no approved help to cars with zero DGT emissions label. That is, no plug or electric hybrid (both new and second -hand) has received confirmation of such aid for purchase. In the middle they ensure that sources from the Ministry of Industry confirm that “the aid of 10,000 euros are on zero label. Electric cars are paid with European funds, and its processing is being carried out.” From Xataka We have put ourselves in contact With the Ministry of Industry to confirm if this situation is true and where the funds of these aid come from, as well as the procedure that is carried out to deliver them, trying to understand why any car with zero emissions stickers of the DGT has received the approval still for the delivery of said aid. Similarly, we have contacted Faconauto, the largest representative of the Spanish dealers to know if it is true that the aids related to electric cars are frozen or have not received any approval.

The Government has been launching the “pajorte” for months. Spanish porn platforms are already noticing their impact

by

“Before watching this video for adults, please show me your porn card.” That was in July 2024 the idea of ​​the government to prevent minors from accessing pornographic content on the Internet. That hypothetical Pajorto It seems to have stayed in anyone’s land, however, because … Does anyone know where it is? Pajorto. The popularly known as porn card or “pajorte” had as an official name “Beta Digital”. That it was nothing more than a mobile application that thanks to the use of public or private keys would allow the user’s age to verify and give access to online pornographic content. Doubts everywhere. Soon many doubts appeared –even legal– On the viability of a very complex project at the technical level and With a little reach In our country. In addition, governments have centuries trying to put doors to porn And they never went too well. Pajorte, theoretically in tests. As they point out In the countryPajorte still does not exist even though it should have been ready for the “end of summer” of 2024. That was at least the promise of the then Minister of Digital Transformation, José Luis Escrivá. His successor, Óscar López, declared in the Senate On February 26 that the digital portfolio “is being reviewed at the National Cryptological Center to have all the security, because it has to give guarantees to all citizens.” Even so, according to the Vanguardia López, he said that the government “has found a solution to guarantee privacy and verify age” and that the Spanish tool is being “study in Europe and the same within a year all of Europe is applying it.” European digital identity (EIDAS2). The European Union It has been for years working on the call ‘European Digital Identity Wallet‘, a kind of digital identity card that will unify DNI, passwords and all payments in the same application. That initiative He is not exempt from criticismbut theoretically it will end up being implemented in November 2027 although the barriers are still important. Spain tried to advance with this digital portfolio focusing on solving the problem of access to the porn of minors, but the Spanish initiative has ended up becoming a recurring meme. Picture traffic drop. The Cumloouder Adult Content website, of the Asturiana Techpump company, asks its users in Barcelona and Madrid to choose an age verification system to access its contents. On the one hand, an app similar to Beta Digital Portfolio that makes the introduction of the DNI necessary. The second, an age estimate based on an image of the user’s face. Responsible for this platform explained in the country how their traffic has fallen 85% after implementing this system. Of the 15% who end up accessing “3.38% do the verification and 11.7% make the estimation with AI, it is almost four times more practically those who put their face.” Porn (national) would have to close. For those responsible for Cumlouder, a 85% drop in your business would be catastrophic. “The traffic is business. If we get to do it for all Spain, we go down blind,” said Javier Fernández, head of Techpump technology in statements to El País. Data privacy and protection. Pojorto will only affect Spanish porn platforms, which as we said are the ones that users use the least in our country. Despite this, this measure could harm them because the lack of legal clarity is worrying. The CNMC has processed several files for the application of the 2022 audiovisual lawwhich forces to take necessary measures for the protection of minors in this area. Better leave the business. In fact, the regulations are causing a blunt effect on that industry. “There is no system in the market that complies with the new audiovisual law without violating data protection rights,” explained one of those affected by regulation. He ended up selling the domain and eliminating the content “to avoid possible sanctions that could take me to bankruptcy.” The CNMC already fined 308,529 euros to Techpump Because of their zero age control, and these types of sanctions can be a death sentence for smaller platforms. Possible solution: no free content. The failure of the verification system has caused Techpump to choose to move on to a payment gateway, which will make it filter first with a credit card. From there they intend to create a verification system to offer it to other adult content platforms. The CNMC already indicated that the card payment is not enough to verify that a person is of legal age. United Kingdom, a parallel example. The British country also has been promoting measures to protect minors from access to pornography. His Online Safety Act It raises alternatives for identification and access to these contents, among which are a photographic identification, an age estimate, credit card checks or with digital identity services. However, there is no unique or definitive system, but It is supposed According to the British regulator, ofcom, which “by July 2025, all platforms must have a very effective age guarantee solution to protect children under 18.” Impossible to put doors to the field. All this leads to the colossal challenge of being able to control access to pornographic content by minors, something that seems almost impossible despite the efforts of Spain or the European Union. There is still room for options, of course, but the possible disadvantages – especially in privacy and limitation of freedoms – can be insurmountable obstacles to these projects.

Google hoped that the new US government would save him from “chopping” in several companies. Bad news

by

It doesn’t matter when you read this, it is almost certain that in the last hours you have used some Google service. Maybe you have sent an email in Gmail, received a message on your Android mobile, sailed with Chrome or made a google search. The company dominates so many aspects of digital life that is difficult to escape its ecosystem. But with that power the problems also come: antitrust authorities have been pressing years To detach from some divisions, and a possible separation is getting closer. DOJ VS. Google. The pulse between Google and the US authorities is not new. In October 2020, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and eleven state prosecutors They filed a lawsuit accusing Mountain View company to monopolize internet searches. After years of litigation, in August last year, federal judge Amit P. Mehta failed against him, concluding that the technological giant had maintained his domain in the searches market by imposing entry barriers that hindered competition. One of its main strategies has been to pay mobile manufacturers such as Apple to ensure be the default search engine on its devices. A bold measure on the table. Throughout history, the authorities have intervened to stop the domain of large companies, although the most common strategy is usually imposing economic sanctions. Forcing part of the business, on the other hand, is a drastic and rare measure. In the case of Google, this option went to the forefront the same day the failure against it was confirmed, although informally. However, the judge had not yet determined the corrective measures, which will be announced throughout 2025. Even so, the possibility of a split becomes increasingly strength. The Department of Justice presses to fragment Google. Although, as we say, the judge has not explicitly supported Google’s fragmentation, the DOJ, which represents the US government, has insisted on that option as part of the corrective measures. He has argued that the only way to stop his monopolistic domain in searches is to force the company to get rid of Chrome and, potentially, of Android. The striking thing is that the first attempt occurred under the administration of Joe Biden, But the second has arrivedagainst any forecast, with Donald Trump in the White House. “Thanks to its colossal size and its power without restrictions, Google has taken consumers and companies an essential promise that is owed to them: the right to choose between different services. Its illegal practices have created an economic giant that dominates the market to the point of guaranteeing that, whatever happens, it always wins, ”said the DOJ in his last presentation asking for the disinversion of the company in key areas. “Google’s illegal behavior has created an economic giant that wreaks havoc on the market to make sure what happens, Google always wins. American consumers and companies suffer from Google’s behavior, ”he added. An uncertain panorama. The presentation has been signed by Omeed A. Assefi, who currently leads the antimonopoly division interimly while the Senate evaluates the confirmation of Gail Slater, the one chosen by Trump to assume the position. ASSEFI is no stranger to the former president: He was part of the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice during his first term. Slater, meanwhile, has indicated that he hopes to apply Regulations with surgical precisionwhile Trump has not hesitated to accuse the great technology of acting without control, to quell the competition and take advantage of their market domain to restrict rights. With this panorama, it continues in the air if its appointment will mark a change of strategy or if, on the contrary, the pressure on the technological sector will continue to increase. Wasn’t Trump hope? Before even being elected president, several technological leaders went to him in search of solutions. Tim Cook, from Apple, for example, called him to complain of the regulatory approach of the European Union, to which Trump responded with a promise: he would not allow them to take advantage of US companies. SUCTAR PICHAI, from Google, shared a meal with himalthough the details of that conversation are still a mystery. The company itself also donated a million dollars at the bottom of his inauguration. Now, with a judicial ruling that could force her to divide, Google has already announced that she will appeal the decision to avoid the dreaded chopstick. Effects throughout the ecosystem. Chop Google would not only affect the company itself, but shaking the entire digital ecosystem. Chrome and Android are not profitable business for themselves, they exist to channel users to their search engine, the true gold mine of the company. Separating them would completely change the rules of the game, affecting online advertising, agreements with manufacturers and software we use on our devices. But that’s not all: if the authorities are seriously with Google, the rest of the giants such as Apple, Amazon or Meta could be the following in the sight.

Multivize Computing is the Startup of San Sebastián that “compresses” the AI. The government has just invest 67 million euros in it

by

Óscar López, Minister for Digital Transformation and Public Function, announced within the framework of the Mobile World Congress of Barcelona something interesting: an investment of the government to support a promising Spanish startup of artificial intelligence. Multivize Computing. The Spanish company Multivize Computing It has venues in San Sebastián, Toronto, Munich, Paris and London and aims to “revolutionize artificial intelligence through the understanding of models.” Its products are able to compress large language models at 10% of its original size, with cost reduction and efficiency improvement that implies. Compressing the AI. Its main product is compactifai, a “compressor of AI models” that allows more fast, cheap and efficient ia systems. According to Your dataa model as it calls 3.1 405b has an operational cost of about $ 390,000 if we want to run it at home (13 GPUS H100, 9100 W of consumption), but thanks to Compactifai it is possible to reduce that cost to 60,000 dollars (2 GPUS H100, 1,400 W). 67 million for this European “unicorn”. López has announced that the Government will enter as a shareholder in Multivrse Computing through the Spanish Technological Transformation Society (SETT). In 2024 Digitaleurope, employer of industries in the process of transformation in Europe, recognized the company as the future European Uniccorn. It is one of the most promising emerging companies in Spain according to LinkedIn, and this investment is of course a commitment to that future. And aids for companies. The minister took the opportunity to announce a call for 130 million euros (up to 5 million euros per project) from FEDER funds for companies that incorporate AI “in their value chains.” There is also another additional call of 50 million euros for the integration of AI in companies in the health sector. There are already real cases of use. A previous call endowed with 50 million euros and launched by Sedia in 2021 concluded in December and there have been real cases. One of them is Tartaglia, focused on the health sector and endowed with seven million euros. This project has developed a system so that health institutions can safely share data. Another of these projects is agrarian, with an investment of nine million euros and that has taken advantage of AI to for example foresee the yield of the crops through satellite images, early pest detection or modeling of the energy expenditure of large fridge cameras.

The government has been at war against sugar for years. Now he wants to ban the sale of sugary drinks in schools

by

In recent years we have seen different administrations in many different geographical areas take measures to limit the consumption of sugary drinks and other similar products, such as industrial pastries and energy drinks. The last one has come from the hand of the Ministry of Social Rights, Consumption and Agenda 2030. New regulations on the horizon. The Ministry of Consumer Ultimate vending and coffee shops in schools and institutes, As he has advanced The country. These products include industrial pastries, refreshing drinks, and energy drinks, products with more than five grams of sugar per packaged portion. The measure would also affect the advertising that can be shown in these machines; as well as the location of these, which would be out of access to students in early and primary education. More than sugar. The draft decree raises restrictions based on other criteria beyond the sugar content of the products. The measure contemplates, for example, limiting the kiloacalories by packaged portion up to a maximum of 200. This would be accompanied by an additional limit: no more than 35% They could proceed with fat. In addition, saturated fats may not provide more than 10% of the calories of the product. The salt content of the products would also be limited so that a 200 kcal portion could have a maximum of 0.5 grams of salt or the equivalent of 0.2 grams of sodium. Touring ahead. The future regulations still have to go through the State Council and the Council of Ministers before approval, which implies that the details may vary before entry into force. One more on the list. The last Biannual Aladino study, focused precisely on the Spanish child population was made in 2023. Although it observed a decrease in excess weight, overweight and obesity with respect to the 2019 report, the authors indicated that values ​​were maintained. Administrations have been serious in the fight against obesity, especially childhood obesity. Sugary drinks have been a usual target in this regard. A few years ago, for example, the United Kingdom introduced a “sugar tax” that affected this type of drinks. The resluent was a success according to a study published last year. In our closest environment the latest legislative changes in this direction have occurred at the regional level. In 2023, Galicia put on the table a proposal to limit the consumption of energy drinks among minors. These drinks, sometimes sugary represent an additional problem related to their high content in caffeine. In Xataka | We already know what energy drinks cost your rest.

The Singapore government has revealed which companies are involved in the delivery of GPU from Nvidia A Deepseek

by

Depseek continues to be the artificial intelligence (AI) of the moment five weeks after its irruption. And is that the debate about the hardware used by this Chinese company to train your AI model Keep on the table. High-flyer, your parent company, is A quantitative coverage fund specialized in trading algorithmic. This simply means that this company uses advanced mathematical models and computational algorithms to address investment decisions with the greatest possible success guarantees. Deepseek was born as a high-flyer secondary project to take advantage of its computer resources and “put one foot” in the AI ​​industry. Its creators say that in the training of their model they have used only 2,048 chips H800 of Nvidia. However, Some analysts defend that, in reality, its infrastructure brings together 50,000 GPU H100 bought through intermediaries. This is the problem. High-flyer could legally buy the H800 chips to the entry into force of US sanctions of November 16, 2023, but the H100 GPUs should not be in their possession. Singapore is the entrance door to China of the chips for the most advanced Nvidia The US government has suspected for many months that Chinese companies and research centers dedicated to AI acquire the most advanced NVIDIA GPUs through Singapore and Malaysian intermediary companies. This possibility is no longer just a hypothesis. And it is that the Singapore government has confirmed that it has identified those responsible for diverting to China, and presumably towards the Deepseek parent company, servers that contain the high -performance GPUs produced by NVIDIA. The US now has the opportunity to tighten its fence a little more about China This information was revealed last week by the television channel Channel News Asia, and today the Minister of Internal Affairs and Justice of Singapore, K. Shanmugam, He has confirmed it. Interestingly, it has not specified what the GPUs that incorporate these machines, but it has made public a very important fact: The name of the companies They have manufactured the servers. And they are two very important Nvidia customers: Dell Technologies and Super Micro Computer. If it is finally confirmed that Depseek, or any other Chinese company that is dedicated to AI, is getting the Nvidia avant -garde GPUs acquiring servers of these companies in Singapore or Malaysia, USA will have the opportunity to tighten your fence a little more. However, this would not demonstrate the guilt of Dell and Super Micro, although its indirect involvement in the traffic of the Nvidia chips. This circumstance would put on the table the need to control with more precision where their servers will stop, something that, on the other hand, It is not easy. Whatever the Singapore government claims to be willing to collaborate with his American counterpart to end the illegal vanguard GPU traffic.

Donald Trump’s government plans to be even harder with China. His problem is that he needs Netherlands and Japan

by

The administration led by Joe Biden has approved during his management years several very ambitious China sanctions. The last one entered into force On December 2just a few weeks before Biden and his team leave the White House. These prohibitions are aimed priority to Chinese companies that They design and produce lithography equipment that intervene in the manufacture of advanced semiconductors, hence the impact they are presumably having on the Chinese chips industry is deep. As expected, China soon react. Just one day later the government led by Xi Jinping announced the prohibition of export of critical minerals to the US. It was possible that the arrival of Donald Trump’s government and his entourage contributed to calm the waters with China a little, but nothing is further from reality. The climbing of sanctions and other moschadillas that have starred US and China in recent years will continue, although now under the baton of Donald Trump. The US prepares more sanctions with the complicity of the Netherlands and Japan According to Bloomberg News Trump’s team wants to even more harden the sanctions to which China is already subjected. The US government has not officially confirmed it, but according to this means of communication, the new sanctions package addresses two different areas that seek to hinder more the development of the Chinese semiconductor industry. The first measure proposes to restrict the quantity and types of chips that NVIDIA can deliver to its Chinese clients without processing a license. Deepseek R1’s success is promoting the adoption of NVIDIA GPU H20 for models training It is important that we do not overlook that Jensen Huang’s company leads the GPU market for applications of artificial intelligence (AI) with an approximate quota of 80%. And, in addition, the success of China AI Deepseek R1 He is promoting The adoption of the GPU H20 of nvidia for Model training (And also that of The Ascend 910 chips of Huawei to solve inference tasks). Whatever this is not all. And, again according to Bloomberg, several US officials have recently met with their Dutch and Japanese counterparts. Presumably they are negotiating what steps they can take to drastically limit the participation of the engineers of the Dutch company ASML and the Japanese Tokyo Electron, which are two of the most important lithography equipment manufacturers on the planet, in the maintenance of the production equipment of the production equipment of semiconductors that are being used by their Chinese clients. The US needs the complicity of the Netherlands and Japan to make this measure prosper, and it is very likely to do so soon. From one thing we can be sure: as has happened on other occasions, China will respond.

Elon Musk has been cutting the US government for weeks. Yesterday Milei gave him a chainsier to celebrate it

by

Javier Milei is not going through the best of his political moments after the second accusation of fraud with cryptocurrencies of his career, for the controversial public support of the president of Argentina to The cryptocurrency $ libra. Milei has chosen to get away from all that controversy and travel to the US to personally give Elon Musk the Symbol of cuts In his legislature: a chainsaw. For his speech, in addition to the chainsaw, Elon Musk wore large sunglasses, gold chains around his neck and a black magician cap, alluding to The Musk Meme generated by AI that have circulated through their social network since the Doge project was known. Sunglasses and chainsaw in a political scenario Elon Musk was not planned to participate in the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) that the Republican party is celebrating near Washington, but finally, an effusive Elon Musk took the stage for Rob Schmitt, a Newsmax presenter, to do an interview of which The Verge has published a transcription. The millionaire took the stage dressed in a shirt in which you could read “I am not postponing anything, I am doing secondary missions”, a thick gold chain, black magician cap and huge sunglasses that hid their eyes during the entire interview . Musk He entered greeting to an audience delivered and effusively raising their arms, although without Make Roman threats In your celebrations. After the initial greetings, Musk exclaimed: “President Milei has a gift for me”, just before Javier Milei entered the scene giving the magnate a chain that Musk did not hesitate to fly euphoric exclaiming: “This is the chainsaw of the bureaucracy!”. An interview that raised suspicions After the delivery, the Argentine president was completely ignored by both Elon Musk and the presenter, so he went to the back of the stage resisting to abandon him without saying goodbye to the millionaire, who continued to stir the chainsaw from one end to the other of the stage. Completed the “Performance” of the chainsaw, Elon Musk and the presenter set out to start an interview. Musk broke the ice confessing: “I have become a meme” and “My mind is a storm.” Faced with the journalist’s questions, Musk answered babbling and with certain difficulties in articulating complete phrases, forcing the presenter to guide Musk’s answers during his interview. This behavior did not go unnoticed to the audience, which immediately shared it into a wave of messages, turning the word “Ketamine“In tendency in X during his speech.” Elon can barely form a prayer at this time, ” wrote The journalist Aaron Rupar in his X account. The legal analyst Ken White, too He showed his surprise Given Musk’s difficulties to maintain a fluid conversation. The comedian Gabe Sanchez went a little further pointing to the origin of the problem: “POV: you just took a ton of ketamine and went on stage,” wrote on his X profile. It is not very common to see Elon Musk doing an interview with sunglasses. Previously, Musk had received Javier Milei in one of the private rooms of the Convention Center where the Republican event is celebrated. In a Video of that meeting Published by Javier Milei, it can be seen how the Argentine President enters the stay. Elon Musk does not have the glasses on that time but, before greeting Milei, Musk puts the sunglasses when he warns that they are recording him. Touch the image to go to the original message Elon Musk has already recognized in the past being a ketamine consumer by medical prescription To treat depression. Although an investigation of the WSJ revealed that the erratic behavior that the millionaire has sometimes shown could be due to the cocktail formed For this substance with stressthe insomnia, the Asperger syndrome and the bipolar disorder suffered by Musk.

Tesla had a contract of 400 million dollars from the United States government. They have had to reculate

by

Elon Musk has become one of the strong men of the new Donald Trump government in the United States. Very involved in his electoral campaign, the owner of Tesla has also become the visible head of the government efficiency department (Doge) with which he aspires to reduce inefficiencies within state institutions. Since he took sides in the government, Musk has applied hard In the administration the same thing that has launched in its own companies: marathon days (including beds in the offices) and the elimination of all superfluous cost. To the point of withdraw the protection of career officialsthose who work for the State rule who governs. But at the same rate that Musk advances in reducing assumptions superfluous and expendable costs In state structures, questions about a possible conflict of interest have been repeated. Questions that have made sense following a controversial contract of 400 million dollars to get armored electric cars. Or should we say a controversial contract of 400 million dollars to get electric cars of Tesla armored? Tesla, the word that appears and disappears When talking about the possible conflict of interest between Elon Musk and its position within the United States government it has been to focus on the facilities that can be granted to accelerate tests with autonomous cars (in which Tesla has great hopes) or in the elimination of aid for the purchase of electric cars (which can prevent rivals from achieving sales of the Musk company). However, what was not thought of was directly on the purchase of Tesla electric vehicles for the United States administration itself. In an order of December 2024, the State Department contemplated a $ 400 million contract for the acquisition of armored vehicles as a part of the forecasts of ADisquisitions for the fiscal year of 2025. In that same document, the name of BMW whose BMW X5 and X7 armored uses the state administrations also appeared. They explain in Bloomberg that this contract has been modified to make the word Tesla disappear and, in this way, that a conflict of interest cannot be denounced when it comes to awarding it. What now appears in the drafting of the contract is the hiring worth 400 million dollars of “armored electric vehicles”. This situation, they point out from the American media, is just one of the possible conflicts of interest that can arise with the new Musk position within the country’s government. Spacex, its aerospace company, is responsible for providing rockets for the US army or launching NASA astronauts and has previously received contracts worth bills of dollars. For its part, Elon Musk has assured that it has no record that this has happened. In a message in xthe owner of Tesla has assured that he is completely sure that there is nothing approved about the possible purchase of these cars. What the American media highlights is to what extent Musk can exercise a neutral position in future contracts where their companies are involved. In this case, for example, although there were other brands involved the 400 million dollars item is the highest of the 320 items that appear in the purchase forecast for this year. In statements a ForbesState Department spokesmen say that last year Joe Biden’s government He requested that “the interest of private companies to produce armored electric vehicles” and that a single company showed interest in the contract. “It should have been a generic entry called ‘Electric Vehicle Manufacturer’” Without the mention of Tesla, they collect in the middle. Keep in mind that, if the contract is granted, the chosen electric car should be the cybertuck tesla of which precisely The company has presumed its resistanceeven before the bullets. The car began to sell at a good pace And the most expensive units were placed to get greater profitability but after the first months of commercialization, the huge electric pick-up It seems not being convinced to possible buyers.

The mystery of the best photography made to a UFO is still unresolved. And the United Kingdom Government has the fault

by

In the set of UVNI eventsacronym for unidentified flying object that over time has been slightly modified to UAP, there are some more relevant than others. Obviously, those who have not been able to answer for lack of information They are the ones who have caught the public’s attention. Without going very far, Incidents revealed by New York Times In 2017 with The pentagon fighters avistando “something”They have turned the world around. And if we stick to a photograph, none like Calvine’s. Encounters in the moors of Scotland. Historius took place One night of August 1990when two hikers who worked as chefs in a nearby hotel claimed to have witnessed an inexplicable event in Calvine’s moors, a remote town in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. While they walked between the fog, They noticed the presence of a huge diamond -shaped object floating in the sky“A stranger” without sound or visible propulsion signs. Its metal structure remained static in the air, challenging common sense itself on the behavior of a conventional aircraft. The astonishment and fear of witnesses increased when A combat plane Harrier appeared on the scenesurrounding the object as if it were in a recognition maneuver. Before the men could process what they saw, the mysterious artifact amounted to high speed and disappeared. One of the witnesses managed to capture several photographs of the moment, images that, years later, would become one of the most enigmatic visual tests in the history of this type of events and considered as Better photography ever made to a UFO. The Ministry of Defense intervenes. Days later, hikers They sent the photos and their testimony to the newspaper Daily Record of Scotland. Andy Allen, image editor of the newspaper, was hit by the clarity of the photographs and decided to send the best to Craig Lindsay, then press officer of the Royal Air Force (RAF) at the base of Pitreavie Castle.
