Some users will get rid of the increase of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, according to The Verge

Last week the news jumped: Xbox Game Pass Ultimate rose price. And it was not a minor change, but orn 50% increase that placed the subscription at 26.99 euros per month in Spain. For some, it was an inevitable adjustment. For others, a jump too abrupt to justify it without further ado. But in the midst of the stir, there are important nuances. According to The VergeMicrosoft has begun to send emails to certain users of the European Union clarifying that this new price will not apply to all equally. At least, not for the moment. “At the moment, these increases will only affect the new purchases and not to your current subscription in the market where you reside, provided you have orn Automatic recurring plan“Says Microsoft.” If you decide to cancel your plan and buy it again, you will be charged the new current rate, “adds the company. The notice adds one more detail: if in your market there will be a price increase, these users will receive a notice at least 60 days in advance and may cancel or modify your plan. This condition, however, seems to be applied only to the markets where the people who received the message reside. For now there is no official confirmation about which countries are included in this exception, but The Verge mentions cases such as Ireland, Germany or Poland. In Xataka we have contacted Microsoft to know if Spain is part of that list and update as soon as we have an answer. In development.

Microsoft rises strongly the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate in Spain. The increase comes next to a renewal of plans

If you are an Xbox Game Pass user or you are thinking of subscribing to the Microsoft service, prepare for important changes. Adjustments have just come into force that do not go unnoticed, including a strong increase in the price of its most complete modality. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate now costs now 26.99 euros per month. It is a 50% increase compared to the 17.99 euros paid so far. It is not the first time that this plan increases its price: in July 2024 it had already gone from 14.99 to 17.99 euros per month. The justification. According to the company, Ultimate will give access to more than 400 titles worldwide, “including most of our partners who wish to continue bringing their future games to Xbox Game Pass.” In addition, the service will offer support for 1440p resolution and improvements in the bits rate on certain devices. How far the changes arrive. Microsoft has also reorganized the offer and says goodbye to the previous nomenclature. Xbox Game Pass Core is called Xbox Game Pass Essential, while the standard plan is transformed into Xbox Game Pass Premium.

Premium, the intermediate option. With this plan you access more than 200 games both in console and PC, in addition to the possibility of playing in the cloud without limit, even with titles you already have in your library. • More than 200 games in console, PC and cloud • Access to classics such as Minecraft, Forza Horizon 5 or Grand Theft Auto V • New games published by Xbox available within a maximum period of 12 months (excluded Call of Duty) • Game in the unlimited cloud, also with own titles • Advantages In-Game in League of Legends, Call of Duty: Warzone or Rainbow Six Siege • Rewards of up to 50,000 points a year The ancient standard plan subscribers will automatically pass to Premium. It remains in the strip of 12.99 euros per month, that is, there is no price increase with respect to what we paid with the plan with the previous denomination. Essential, the new entrance door. With a more tight price, it offers the basics for those who want to try the service without great pretensions: a reduced catalog, cloud game and online multiplayer. • More than 50 games in console and PC • Access to prominent titles such as Hades, Stardew Valley or Cities: Skylines Remastered • Game in the unlimited cloud, including some games that you already have • Online multiplayer in console • Benefits in games like League of Legends and Call of Duty: Warzone • Rewards of up to 25,000 points a year We could say that they are designed for those who seek to start in Game Pass or just want access to a more limited set of games with basic advantages. Its price is encrypted at 8.99 euros per month. What about active plans. Restructuring does not force users to do anything: Microsoft will apply migration automatically. As we say, the old Core will pass to Essential, those of the standard plan will move to Premium and those who already pay Ultimate will continue in that modality. In development.

Your fans community is stirred to the price increase

At the beginning of July we welcomed the Nothing Phone (3)a device that marked a turning point In the company for two main reasons: better specifications and higher price. The smartphone is marketed at a price from 799 euros, a significant escalation compared to the rest of the terminals that has been launching Nothing. Users, including the most faithful, They have not fit this price increase well and Carl Pei, CEO of the company, has responded to the greatest criticism of the phone in One of his latest videos. One thing is clear: the trajectory to which Nothing derives has already seen it before. The perfect storm. The launch of Nothing Phone (3) should have been a moment of celebration for the startup. However, despite the great characteristics of this terminal, of which our partner Ricardo Aguilar has spoken to us in Your analysisCriticisms have not taken long to arrive. The price has been the most prominent conversation issue, a price leap of 150 euros compared to its predecessor, the Nothing Phone (2). Image: Ricardo Aguilar Nor is its design exempts from criticism. And despite the fact that the phone has managed to enlive Glyph Matrix. The comments on the YouTube channel of Nothing have been especially hard, something that has led Carl Pei himself to recognize that some employees are being “harassed” by design decisions. The usual pattern. What Nothing is living is not new in the technological sector. It is the story that is repeated again and again: a brand breaks with aggressive prices, conquers an enthusiastic user base, grows in popularity and, when it reaches some success, economic pressures push it towards the premium segment. The result is inevitable: the complaint of the original fans, who feel betrayed by the drift of a brand that is no longer “yours.” The PEI case is especially striking. The founder of Nothing comes precisely from OnePlus, where he lived in the first person this same transformation. OnePlus began in 2013 as “flagship killer” with the OnePlus One at 269 euros. Seven years later, the OnePlus 9 Pro It cost more than 900 euros. PEI abandoned OnePlus In part for this new trajectory that OnePlus had taken, in addition to that he wanted to focus on his own project, promising that Nothing would be different. The ‘different’ has succeeded, although perhaps not in the aspect we would like. And three years later, his flagship already goes for 800 euros. Although as usual in these types of strategies, Nothing also has more competitive phones in price, such as His range ‘A’ or its CMF by Nothing. Growth syndrome. The problem is not in Nothing’s ambition to create better products, but in the inevitable tension between maintaining the original identity and economic realities of growth. PEI says In the video that Nothing has “the highest costs for components compared to everyone else” due to its smallest production scale. A dilemma known in the industry, because to grow you need to improve the product, but improve the product requires raising prices, and raising prices aliene to your original user base. Fans do not see it justified. Criticisms focus on two fundamental aspects: the phone (3) mounts the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 instead of the most powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite that carry other flagship, and photographic performance is below other direct competitors. For many users, pay the same as for a iPhone 16 or a Galaxy S25 By lower specifications it makes no sense (in the United States, the three devices are officially found from $ 799). PEI has defended that his brand “was never intended for the warriors of the specifications”, but the message is not pending. And now what. Nothing is at a crossroads Similar to the one that OnePlus lived or Xiaomi. You can continue to raise prices and specialize in the premium niche, risking your ‘rebel’ identity, or trying to maintain the balance between growth and accessibility. At the moment, everything indicates that they have chosen to diversify, with more accessible phones and other products such as headphones. The market response to Phone (3) will be decisive these months to mark the road that the company will take. Meanwhile, Carl Pei seems to be facing the same ghost that once made him leave OnePlus.

There is a ‘cover’ in the business that will generate the increase in defense spending: Telefónica

Telefónica is not just the dean and leader in clients of Spanish telecos: it is also the one who dominates the technological tenders of the Ministry of Defense. It is no accident. AND will go to more. Why is it important. Spain has adhered to the plan to reach 5% of GDP in military spending, although maintains your plan not to invest more than 2%. In any case, there is a horizon to increase that item that will result in more than a dozen billions of euros additional to current investment. And everything indicates that Telefónica will be one of the great beneficiaries of this expansion. In figures. It is not a monopoly because there is plurality of winners, but the concentration is very high. The context. The State is the main shareholder of Telefónica with the 10% that invested –2.3 billion– in May 2024. Marc Murtrathe president who arrived six months ago, came from Indra, another participated by the State, after the SEPI forced the change in management. In detail. In the last two years, Telefónica has multiplied its presence in defense. Among the main recent contracts include: Yes, but. This concentration in state companies has a geopolitical logic. The government wants to shield military communications against foreign technological dependencies. Especially after The recent rupture with Israeli suppliers such as Elbit Systems that advocates the government. The beneficiary, according to an exclusive The confidentialit will be most likely Indra. In any case, national security justifies state control. The threat. For private competition, the panorama is complicated. With the increase in defense spending and preference for companies participated by the State, opportunities for other operators are reduced. It is a market that is nationalized by the back door. The Declaration of Murtra in Congress three weeks ago He speaks for himself: “Telefónica wants to invest in defense, but always subordinated to the defense policy that marks the ministry,” he said. Translation: We are an executing arm of the state, not an independent competitor. Deepen. The new budget of 34,000 million for 31 Special Modernization Programs It will be the great test. Telecommunications, cybersecurity, command and control systems: Everything goes through the digital infrastructure already controls. It is your time to capitalize years of investment.

If the question is how to increase protein intake, the answer is the ‘proffee’

Proteins should be one of the pillars on which a balanced diet. Let’s have the goal of keeping ourselves in good shape, losing weight or gaining muscle mass, Proteins are essential. However, it is not always so simple get to the recommended amountand that is where the preparation industry has found a reef. As? With processed foods that play with marketing and move to others whose protein contribution is already important. There are also protein supplements, of course, and are interesting in diets in which the physical load is considerable. But what if instead of taking only one Protein milkshakeDo we mix them with coffee? A few years ago appeared In Tiktok the fashion of the ‘proffee’ resulting from combining Protein and Coffeeand far from being something that was forgotten, it has kept In time and that is not as a bad idea as it may seem. Brands like Starbucks did not take long get into the carbut these protein coffees are something you can do at home very easily. Although you have to have a little eye combining the ingredients so that the result is not a drink of the Averno. THE CAFFEA WITH PROTEINS: ATITIING COMBINING There are many mixtures that are doubtfulbut that of coffee and proteins looks like one more. On the one hand, we have coffee, a food that, beyond its energy contribution thanks to the caffeine, It is very healthy. You have to be careful with the amount of caffeine that we eat and It is not good for all activitiesbut there are more and more studies that support the beneficial effects of coffee About our body. On the other hand, powdered protein. There are several types, but the most common are those of whey, casein and soybeans. Here You have to be careful Because it is a double -edged sword and, the more processed and additives, worse. For example, you have to control the added sugar level or the types of sweeteners they use because the labels of some powdered proteins are authentic Bibles. Above all, if it is a quality powder, it is much easier to consume a shake than a huge amount of eggs. Made the presentations, Let’s go to ‘Proffee’. Although There are suitable intervals To take protein, the truth is that we can take a shake when we feel like it. The important thing is Distribute that macronutrient among all meals Daily, but mixing them with coffee is interesting in two specific moments: In that first morning coffee We introduce protein at a time when our body is open to receive it. In that coffee we drink before training. We gain an extra energy, we contribute to the total daily protein that we should ingest and, in addition, we have the positive effects of caffeine for our sports practice. And preparing the drink does not have too much science. In fact, it is very possible that you already did it before the term ‘Proffee’ appeared on the network. Here my recommendation is that you do it as you like, but ideally you do not prepare a espresso And you add a church of protein, since the result is … well, disgusting. A simple elaboration is to unite a espressoa banana, milk (animal or vegetable) and a chip of vanilla or chocolate proteins in a crusher and make the shake. Banana and proteins sweeten the drink and mixture is curious, but it is quite good. You can remove milk if you want to consume less calories and change it for water, but that extra milk also adds proteins. You can also move from banana or find another fruit that can curdle well with coffee. What I would never do – and here each one can do what they want, but it is a recommendation – is Mix coffee with proteins that are not chocolate or vanilla. Proteins with neutral flavor, to citrus or strawberry are not too pleasant in that mixture. In the end, it is to play with amounts and ingredients until you find something that you like because, in this case, beyond a fashion with its own name on Tiktok, joining proteins and coffee is something that It can contribute a lot In active life styles. It would always be necessary to be careful not to replace meals for powders, since these real foods have a series of vitamins, minerals and other beneficial compounds and, above all, choose a protein shake that not up to sugar. And, if you test and you do not like it, do not take it that, despite the existence of the I think for humansfood is also to enjoy.

If the question is “you will sell the Nintendo Switch 2 despite the price increase” the answer is: yes, a lot

469 euros. Is what is worth Nintendo Switch 2 Brand new without a single game. A price that makes it compete with consoles such as PlayStation 5 wave Xbox Series x And that, no matter how much it hurts, it takes on some sense: The switch is no longer a toy. It was possible to wonder if, after this price increase, Nintendo would have easy to sell its new console. The answer is clearer than ever. Not that he is selling well, he is selling more than he had planned. The Price Upon. The Nintendo Switch went on sale in Spain at a price of 329.99 euros. Four years after its launch, the company It reduced it to 299.99 euros. A strategic movement to give way to a switch OLED that went on the Spanish market in 2021 by 349.99 euros. Four years later, the company launches its new switch 2 for 469 euros, and with specifications that few expected. Ability to execute games in 4K 60FPS, an important graphic jump in the games that await you and the great added of Switch: portability. Uncertainty. A few days after your presentation, Nintendo postponed switch 2 reservations in the United States. Reason? The constant changes in tariffs imposed on China and other countries by the Trump administration. The rumors about price increases on the PVP that had been planned were in the air although, after a foreseeable calm, it seems that everything follows its course. Dying of success. Partially loved the stormNintendo has revealed how Switch reserves are going. The answer is “extremely” well. Shuntaro Furukawa has explained in X The current situation. “We have acquired many pieces in advance and state progressing with the production so that we can make the deliveries of Nintendo Switch 2. On April 2, we announced its details and open a lottery for sale in My Nintendo Store. As a result, we receive an extremely large amount of applications: approximately 2.2 million people only in Japan. This far exceeds our initial expectations and far exceed Switch 2 that can be delivered through My Nintendo Store on June 5. The Switch 2 is dying of success before birth in Japan, so much that it will not be able to meet all the initial deliveries. Forced march in production. Nintendo not only has to supply Japan from Switch 2, it has to do the same with the global market. Furukawa has assured that the company will reinforce its production system, one that continues to depend on countries like China, which has been imposed a 125%tariff. The big doubt is what will happen to the price of this console in its long life cycle. Competitors like Sony are clear: They are already uploading prices.

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

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

This time there are no layoffs but an increase in bonus for managers

Mark Zuckerberg continues with his plan to speed up the goal structure and prepare it to face the challenge that his AI presents. One of the most controversial measures of that plan has been the 5% of your workforcebut not the only one. In one Corporate communication At the SEC, goal confirmed “an increase in the percentage of objective bonus” in the Annual bonus plan for executives of the company. With this new bonus plan, Meta managers could get a bonus of up to 200% of their base salary, instead of a maximum of 75% of their salary they could reach so far. More incentives for executives, less for employees The new bonus plan presented by the company would not affect the remuneration of Mark Zuckerberg which, as CEO and founder, receives A symbolic salary that is complemented with A personalized bonus that compensates. The increase in executive bonuses arrives at a time of tension between the template after the dismissal of goal to which low performance was attributed in their work. However, as the company itself confirmed, these layoffs occur in the context of strategic change to focus on the development of AI, Not due to economic problems. Something that confirmed the 21% increase in the benefits that Goal communicatedJust a few weeks ago. The Board of Directors approved this increase in Bonus for managers with the aim of being more competitive at the salary level “was in or below the 15th of the total compensation in cash of executives who held similar positions.

Years ago Mexico opted to offer longer school days for children. Caused an increase in divorces

A time ago a group of economists from the University of Tennessee It was done A peculiar questionfor the concepts and ideas that combines and also its implications: does the school’s school day influence The divorce rate parental? If the time children spend at school clearly affects To the dynamics of the families, conditioning as basic aspects as the hours of adults for other tasks, does that factor interfere with the couple’s breakdown? And if so, how? And why? After crossing school data and separations recorded for several years in Mexico, the experts reached A curious conclusion: The expansion of school days or have greater access to schools with extended schedules does seem to affect divorce rates. It increases them. School Conference (and something else). Over the years articles (many) have been published on how the different school day models They affect To students, their performancehe school abandonment or the “Child Wellness”. The debate It is old and root in a dilemma on which they have run ink rivers: Continuous school day or departure? There are those who ensure that this response has implications that go far beyond the classrooms, such as The gender gapthe Differences of opportunities or family poverty. Click on the image to go to Tweet. A new factor: divorces. María Padilla-Romo, Cecilia Peluffo and Marian Its derivatives: The separations. And they have done it based on a very specific question: how does the expansion of the schooling work affect divorce rates? To find out they basically handle two sources, the statistical records of marriage ruptures and school data on the expansion of the school day in the public primary schools. In Mexico they found databases for both fronts, so the country ended up becoming its particular (and huge) laboratory. The data they obtained and interpretation have just reflected them in An essay Posted in Journal of Public Economics. But what did they analyze? The researchers took advantage of a phenomenon that played in their favor: the “Large -scale expansion” of the model of Full -time school (Full-Time Schools, or etc, with a “Extended Day” of Between six and eight hours) In Mexican municipalities from 2007 to 2016. To be more precise, economists resorted to census data from the monitoring of the monitoring Program etc. of the Secretary of Public Education that corresponded to the 2007/2008 academic year, in which It began to applyand 2015/2016. Then they compared the degree of implementation of that program of school day expanded by municipalities and were fixed in women in divorce procedures in each of those locations. In short, they crossed data. The information on marriage ruptures was obtained from the National Institute of Mexican Statistics and Geography (INEGI), where the cases processed between 2000 and 2016 consulted. And the surprise came. After working with the different records, the researchers discovered that there seems to be A marked relationship between the extension of the school day in the primary centers and the ruptures. At least in Mexico. “We found that the expansion of the school day in 3.5 hours causes a significant increase in divorce rates,” explain economists in Your article. “In addition, the effect is increased with each year of exposure from municipalities to full -time schooling.” A well calibrated trend. The experts They go further and share their calculations on the relationship between both factors, broad teaching days and ruptures. “We found that, as a result of an average increase in the availability of etc. of 24 percentage points, the divorce rate increased by 0.041 divorces per 1,000 individuals (an increase of 12.6 in relation to divorces in the municipalities treated in the year prior to the opening of the first etc) “. Moreover, researchers even appreciate that “the effect increases over time” and the increase in the divorce rate is higher when families enjoy the longest teaching days for seven years. “Our main estimates suggest that the availability of ETC It gave rise to 23,119 additional divorces between 2009 and 2016, or approximately 4.7% of the total number of divorces presented during that period of time, ” The study abounds. Its authors also detected another key trend: the longest school days gave rise to greater divorce rates in areas where less traditional social norms overwhelmed on marriage, divorces and female work. Click on the image to go to Tweet. The question: Why? Extend a few hours the time that primary school The article From Padilla-Romo and his companions suggests that it is not. Maybe it’s a few hours, but influence classrooms. And the reason is that this extension of school days is in its own way “an implicit subsidy for children’s care.” Having their children during a broad period in schools – on its website the Mexican government points out that in etc From 8.00 to 16.00 h– Parents have more time. Especially women, in which It regularly falls The care of the offspring. And those hours can use them in working outside their homes, in exchange for a salary that reinforces their economic independence. Although the researchers recognize that the greatest job among women can have other consequences, such as generating “conflicts”, that mothers with an “abusive couple” remain less exposed to it or simply increase the flow of money that enters home, what That facilitates to face the expenses involved in divorce and separation, the researchers suggest that the economic factor is essential to understand the phenomenon. “A disproportionate fraction”. “Mothers and other female members of the family dedicate a disproportionate fraction of their time to the care of children. The longest school days provide them with an increase in their effective time provision, which translates in better opportunities to acquire individual income “, Zanjan The three authors of the study. “As a result, the negotiation positions at home are probable.” “Our results show that the extension of the school day gave rise to higher divorce rates in areas with less traditional social norms on marriage, divorce and the priority of women in jobs, … Read more
