Summer is approaching and with him the new obsessive trend to lose weight quickly: the patches to lose weight

by

There are nine weeks left for summer and social networks have not taken to remember it. This year, the trend is a clear two -way revival that He has flooded everything: Not only outfits with y2k hats or minimal tops, but also thin body. Quite back the discourse of bodily positivity has remained, and the obsession with weight loss has returned strongly. This time, in the form of stickers. Slimming patches. These products, marketed under names as Weightless either Diet patchThey are transdermal adhesives that are placed on the skin on the wrist or belly. The Reels In social networks and manufacturers ensure that they help lose weight, reduce appetite or accelerate metabolism. The promise is simple: pégate it and lose weight, with no more effort than to remember every so often. Some even present with slogans such as “needleless version” of medicines such as Ozempicdespite having absolutely nothing in common beyond marketing. Does it really work? According to a Bloomberg articlethe theory behind these patches is that they release “natural” ingredients to the body through the skin. Some include compounds such as berberine, green tea extract, caffeine or bullfighting. However, there is no serious scientific evidence that supports these compounds that can be absorbed by the skin in significant amounts to reduce weight. As They have detailed In Medical News Today, some experts have agreed that these products are sold as supplements without strict regulation and it is practically impossible to know what they really contain. As He explained Professor Nerys Astbury of the University of Oxford in Bloomberg, although some medications are administered transdermally (such as nicotine or contraceptives), it has not been shown that appetite suppressors can do it effectively. Boom to lose weight. This whole situation occurs in a context in which obesity medications are more fashionable than ever. Products like Ozempic, Wegovy either Zepboundbased on the GLP-1 molecule, they have been revolutionaries in the treatment of overweight. Unlike viral patches, these do have clinical studies, medical approval and proven results. But of course, they require recipe, medical monitoring and, above all, a puncture. Hence the idea of ​​a “LPG-1 in patch” sounds so tempting. A background problem. What really is at stake is not only the patches, but what they represent. There are many videos about “losing weight” with increasingly crazy routines and, now, it has touched the turn of Loss to lose weight stickers. These types of rapid solutions perpetuate the mentality of thinning is a process that can be outsourced in a patch, without the need for long -term commitments, exercise or changes in the diet. A “perfect body” culture is promoted regardless of cost, whether physical or psychological. In this sense, social networks are playing a key role, presenting these patches as an “easy” and “pain” of losing weight, not to mention the associated risks or realities behind these products. While the young women immerse themselves in this wave of weight loss, we are faced with a new form of social pressure that resurrects the cult of extreme thinness. The two thousand aesthetics, which glorified thinness, sneaks back into our screens and, with it, the return to the idea of ​​aesthetic pressure to be happy.

We have been using sweeteners that provide zero calories. Now we understand why they don’t always help lose weight

by

Sugar is one of the most daily foods and one on which food controversies do not scarce. Excessive sugar consumption can be linked to various problems, from the oral to diabetes. The artificial sweeteners that we sometimes use to reduce the consumption of conventional sugars can be healthier, but no less controversial. Less sugar, more hungry. A recent study He has found that some artificial sweeteners could be affecting the signals that manage our appetite at the brain level. The team responsible for the study observed that the Sucralosa had a less satiating effect than sucrose, conventional or table sugar. The Sucralosa. Sucralosa is a artificial sweetenera disaccharide or compound sugar such as the union of two simple sugars. Its sweetest capacity is up to 600 times higher than that of sucrose, but our body does not absorb it in the same way. This implies that this sweetener has no caloric contribution to our body. This could explain the observed phenomenon: our body would perceive the sweet taste and prepare for calorie ingestion. The body would simply be responding to the absence of energy received. 75 participants. In the study, 75 participants who worked as both of the experimental group and control group in two sessions separate days or weeks from each other took part. Participants, men and women, some with “healthy” weight, others overweight or obesity, consumed three drinks prepared in the experimental sessions to which they underwent. These preparations were a sweetened drink with sucralose, another with conventional sugar (sucrose), and another simple water. The order in which they assigned each drink was random. The team later studied the participants’ response to each drink. Before and after the test they carried out functional magnetic resonances, they took blood samples and asked the participants for their feeling of hunger. They observed that the sucralose increased appetite and activity in the hypothalamus and that it did it to a greater extent among the participants with obesity. The team also detected changes in how the hypothalamus communicated with other brain regions. The details of the study were published In an article In the magazine Nature Metabolism. Old acquaintances. The key can be in the hormones that our body produces when eating, hormones such as insulin and LPG-1 (Glucagon -like peptide 1). This last hormone is produced in the stomach when we eat and fulfills a double function: on the one hand warns the pancreas that we will need insulin to manage digerida glucose; and by transmits to our brain the message that we have fed and satiated. “The body uses these hormones to tell the brain that you have consumed calories, to reduce hunger,” Explain in a press release Kathleen Alanna Page, co -author of the study. “The Sucralosa did not have that effect, and the differences in hormonal responses to the sugar compared to sugar were even more pronounced in participants with obesity.” Much to investigate. According to the team itself, there are still some unknowns to solve in this context. One question, for example, is how this sweetener affects our brain activity in the long term. To do this, they explain, longitudinal studies will be necessary that also analyze the weight and food behaviors of the patients. Another issue to solve is how other factors affect, such as sex, this relationship. The team indicated that during the experiment, the brain activity of women showed greater variability than that of men, which implies the possibility of differences to study.

A study has analyzed which cars are the ones that lose the most after five years and the clear answer: electric

by

You were young but there was a day when buying a Tesla was a round business. The demand was such and the shortage of vehicles so high that There were those who were willing to pay more money For a used tesla than to pay 10,000 euros less, commission it to the company and wait a few months upon arrival. The funny thing is that you were not so young. It was something that happened in 2022. First in the United States and then in Spain. Who was going to tell us now that the company dealt with a painful salesin which it is difficult to discern how much there is temporary with the renewal of the Tesla Model and and how definitive. Especially in countries where the issue is very sensitive, Like Germany. But, obviously, this is not the usual situation. In fact, if your idea is to buy an electric car and change it shortly (three/four years) it is very likely that it is a bad decision. Because, in general and except for very specific circumstances such as the previous one, the electric car is the type of car that is most devalued. A car for many years If you are thinking of getting an electric car, there are two especially interesting formulas. The first is called Renting. Although it is a formula in which more money is paid than with a share of a loan for the purchase of a car to use, it is a good option if you are not very sure of whether the electric car is for you and you do not want to mortgage in the very long term. The second option is to buy an electric car and You keep it as much as possible. If a car does not give problems this is always the best formula to save money but, in the case of a concrete electric car of an electric car, the more kilometers do, the more they fill the battery at low power and more time keep the car the best result will give. This is because yes, How we tell you in this articleyou can load the car at home, you can be saving about five times more money than with a day -to -day gasoline car in fuel consumption. Especially if the use is intensive or almost exclusive in the city. To this is added that, with the passage of the kilometers and the years, reviews, oil changes, filters and, ultimately, replacement of all types of mobile parts that in an electric car are non -existent, are accumulated in a combustion car. A taxi driver can confirm that it is good savings. But the electric car is a problem if you want to change vehicles or technology after a few years. Because, according to the portal ISEECARSspecialists in second -hand sale in the United States, the electric car is the type of vehicle that is most devalued. According to its calculations, an electric car loses 58.8% of its value after five years. The figure contrasts with those collected for other types of vehicles. A hybrid loses 40.7% From the value of the last car a five years and, on average, a car loses 45.6% of its value. The data leave the sale portal and the cars sold there, monitoring 800,000 vehicles sold between March 2024 and February 2025. If the car is not electric, the type of car that is most depreciated is the luxury car. When there is a combination of both values, the result is fateful. The Jaguar I-Pace is the car that has suffered the most depreciation in the last five years, reaching 72.2%. It is followed by the BMW 7 Series (67.1%) and the Tesla Model S (65.2%). Among the 10 cars that depreciate the most we find the Nissan Leaf or the Tesla Model X. The rest are luxury vehicles. It makes a lot of sense Although it may seem bad news, the high depreciation of an electric car makes a lot of sense. And, in fact, the data is better than in previous years. In ISEECARS They point out that the same study in 2023 signed a depreciation of the electric car five years ago 49.1%. It was a lower figure because The price of second -hand cars shot During the Covid-19 crisis and the posterior Shortage in the supply chain. The figure, however, remained the highest of any other type of car. But in 2019 depreciation reached 67.1%. That this figure has dropped out that more buyers are willing to get a second -hand electric car. A sign that there are more electric cars in the market and that the plaintiffs trust more in technology. Although Buy a second -hand electric car It should not be very different than doing it with a combustion car (in fact, in terms of mechanics, it should be easier), it is logical that those who have never had an electric car are reluctant to enter technology with the acquisition of a second -hand vehicle. In addition, the rapid innovations that the sector is living while more competitors arrive that reduce prices cause cars to lose greater value against combustion cars. The promises of new most ambitious batteries and RECHARGES TO RATIMOS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO IMAGINE They are especially relevant to those who are willing to jump into the electric car but prefer to wait a bit to the new models. Cars now bought are devalued to a greater extent because the qualitative leap of buying a new car will be higher than changing a gasoline used by a new one. It is normal that with technology in full development, the current car is obsolete more quickly. It is something that happens in all types of markets Until a technology reaches maturity.

We have a way to improve the effectiveness of treatments such as Ozempic to lose weight: deceive metabolism

by

Our body did not evolve for the vicissitudes of modern life. During a good part of human existence, staying alive required for example that our body reacts to food shortages to prevent our energy consumption from becoming excessive and drained our reserves. In the world the contemporary world, this strategy has become an inconvenience for many who want to lose weight. A new way. Now this can change thanks to a New discovery. A team of researchers has discovered a mechanism used by the liver in the consumption of sugars and fats. Although the finding is still limited to animal models, the team believes that it shows potential to help improve the effectiveness of weight reduction treatments and even against diabetes. Facing the deficit. Layout seems simple: we just have to spend more calories than we consume. However, this is often complicated, since our body is an expert manager of its energy economy, knows how to react to scarcity. When we see ourselves in a prolonged situation in which we reduce the energy contribution of our body, that is, we ingest less calories, our body reacts reducing our energy consumption. To do this, it has a key tool: slow down metabolism. This implies for example, that after a time of diet, we can see how the weight we lower is reduced. Something that even affects people who resort to drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy or Zepbound. PLVAP. The team responsible for the finding, They explainHe was studying a gene called Plvap in mice hígados. This is also a gene present in human cells. It was known that people with mutations that eliminated this gene presented problems by metabolizing lipids (fats), which focused group interest. The study of this gene allowed to discover that its function It has to do with metabolic change that occurs when our body goes from consuming sugar to consume fats during fasting. If this gene is not activated, the body continues to burn sugar as if nothing happened. Deceive the body. Controlling this newly discovered mechanism would open the way to improve the treatments present for weight loss. The strategy to achieve this would be to use this gene to “deceive” the liver in its regulation of our metabolism. The details of the study were published In an article In the magazine Cell. Not just a matter of weight. Controlling our weight is something that arouses enormous interest, as the successes of drugs such as those belonging to the Ozempic family have demonstrated. However, those responsible for the study point out that they could also help us treat metabolic diseases. An example is diabetes due to the role of PLVAP protein in the way our body processes sugar. A long road ahead. Transforming the finding into a treatment that can reach people will take years. For now, work has only been carried out in mice, which implies that it must still be demonstrated that the same mechanisms operate in the metabolism of human beings, something predictable but for now without contrast. Designing a drug and getting all common controls, including clinical trials is also something that requires time and, above all effort. The success of the new generation of drugs for weight loss is at least an indication that this type of treatments is on the laboratory agenda, so the effort is.

I have run for weeks with a Zonense Suunto. It is a spectacular advance for both Marathonians and those who just want to lose weight

by

In recent weeks I have run a few times with a Suunto Race On my wrist next to a pectoral heart rate. Was necessary to try Zonense, the novelty presented a few months ago by Suunto. I wanted to understand her well and try her for myself. The truth is that it is an inventazo. What exactly Zonese is? Zonese is Suunto’s new technology to measure our intensity during exercise. The usual thing is to count pulsations per minute, but Zonese analyzes the Heard rate variability (VFC) To determine, in real time, how our body is responding to effort. The VFC is the variation in time between each heartbeat. Not all beats have exactly the same temporal separation, and these small variations contain valuable information on how our autonomic nervous system is working. High variability usually indicates a good state of recovery, while a low variability indicates fatigue or stress. The interesting thing is that This VFC changes during the exercise very specificly according to the intensity with which we work. And it is just this relationship that Zonese takes advantage of an algorithm called DDFA (Analysis of dynamic fluctuations without a trend) to determine in which metabolic area we are training. And that serves to optimize anyone’s training. Either an expert athlete who wants to increase his performance, or either a person who simply wants to go for a walk to lose weight and wants to do it in the optimal way. Three areas that change everything The training areas, or heart rate, are five, although according to whom you ask (including sports watches manufacturers) can give you six or seven. Zonense simplifies training only three colors: Image: Xataka. Green (aerobic zone). When your body is working mainly with oxygen and fats as fuel. It is the ideal zone for long training, recovery or fat burning. Your body could be kept here for hours. Do you want to go for a walk to lose weight? This is your area. Do not stay below or above. Yellow (anaerobic). Your body begins to use more glycogen and begins to produce lactate, although it can still process it. It is the “threshold” area, where performance improvements are important, but you can’t stay here for too long. Red (Vo2max). You are above your anaerobic threshold, your body produces lactate faster than you can eliminate. It is where the greatest adaptations of power and speed are achieved, but you can only maintain this effort during short time spaces. He Vo2max It is the maximum amount of oxygen that your body can process during intense exercise, is what measures our aerobic capacity. Why Zonese needs a heart rate A key aspect of Zonese is that it requires a heart rate. The optical wrist sensor that incorporates the watches is not enough, and there is a scientific reason for it. Optical sensors They measure the pulses by calculating changes in blood flow by lightbut They cannot accurately detect the exact intervals between beats nor the small variations necessary for the VFC analysis during the movement. Chest bands, however, directly detect the electrical impulses of the heart (such as an ECG), providing the necessary precision for this advanced analysis. In my tests I have used the Suunto Smart Sensor. It would be much better not to have to use it and limit us to the clock, but if these bands maintain their popularity it is for something: they are more reliable, precise and complete. My experience The first time I went to run with Zonense, I planned a 10 km training at a soft rhythm. Normally, based on my heart rate, I would run at about 5:30 min/km to keep my “aerobic zone”. However, after the initial 10 minutes that Zonese needs to calibrate (establishing your metabolic baseline of the day), the clock showed me that it was in yellow (anaerobic), despite the fact that my heart rate was just 145 ppm, which would traditionally consider as my area 2-3. It turns out that last night (several, in fact) he had slept badly and also came from three consecutive days of intense training. My body was telling me, through Zonesethat although the pulsations were not extremely high, it was metabolically working harder than traditional numbers suggested. I reduced the rhythm at 5:47 min/km and, indeed, I returned to the green zone. The training was much more pleasant and, surprisingly, the next day I felt quite recovered, something that would probably have happened if I had maintained my “normal” rhythm. On another occasion, after a week of rest, Zonese allowed me to maintain a faster rate (5:15 min/km) remaining in the green zone. My body was cooler and could work at greater intensity without entering anaerobic areas. Image: Xataka. This type of Personalized and dynamic adjustment is what makes Zonense so valuable. They are not just numbers on a screen, it is real information on how your body is responding to exercise at that precise moment. Another striking example: the shoes. With which I used for filming I marked VO2Max from 4:47 min/km, while when I went to flying I had to go down to 4:19 min/km to enter that area. Not only for elite athletes One of the biggest surprises has been to verify the usefulness of Zonese for people who are barely starting to play sports or simply go for a walk. It is common for a beginner to feel overwhelmed at the explanations of cardiac areas and to remove calculations from its theoretical maximum frequency. For this type of users, Zonese says something much simpler: “Stay in green”. With that simple instruction, the user will walk at a pace that maximizes fat burning without entering areas of greater intensity where the body begins to use glycogen. And it will avoid going too slow. And best of all: being real -time and calibrated information after ten minutes of activity, that user may be in the green or yellow zone depending on the day even if … Read more

‘Gambling Man’ is the portrait of the man capable of betting billions after a 12 -minute conversation. And lose

Technological capitalism continuously disappoints its investors regarding what continually promises them. In 2022, when Masayoshi are announced losses of 23,000 million dollars in softbankthe market pretended to surprise what was inevitable: the collapse of a bubble inflated by the megalomania of its architects itself. It was not the first time they were seeing a fortune evaporate. He had already lost 99% of his wealth in the Crash of the ‘Puntocom’. The pattern is repeated because it should be repeated: the eternal reproduction of the same, where each cycle of boom and Bust Technological needs its own prophets and martyrs. They are represents both roles with particular dedication. Lionel Barber’s new biography about Masayhoshi are‘Gambling Man‘, portrays a man who has turned the extreme risk into a show. The book aims to unravel the genius after seemingly irrational decisions, but ends up revealing something more important: how modern technological capitalism has normalized recklessness as business virtue.

Economic rationality is subordinated to the imperative of the show. The mechanism needs, of course, a distortion of the objectives it says. SoftBank does not really seek to identify the best technological companies in the future, seeks to feed the narrative that you can do it. The reality is that the Vision Fund It operates as a validation machine: Validation for Son, which found in money and success a way to overcome discrimination suffered in postwar Japan; validation for founders who receive their investments; Validation for a market that needs to believe that someone, somewhere, can see the future. “If you are intelligent you do not need leverage, and if you are silly you should not use it,” said Warren Buffett, who in addition to being the best investor in history is a great representative of a more sober and methodical capitalism.

How much money will Jimmy Butler lose for his sanction with Miami Heat?

by

Jimmy Butler and Miami Heat are still faced in the middle of the NBA season. And it is a few weeks ago the eave notified his desire to leave the team and since then he has even refused to train; So the Florida franchise has imposed penalties to the player. The first one was for nine games on January 3, followed by nine other matches for a total of 18. The team alleges that the sanction is because The player has regularly breached the rules of the organization and has damaged the team by not wanting to play for them. Now the Heat proceeded to sanction Butler indefinitely of the team with a minimum of five games. Sanction that will also be without salary enjoyment, so the 35 -year -old will lose a gigatesca sum of money. Jimmy Butler withdrew from Heat training.Credit: Lynne Sladky | AP Until now the experienced player has played in 25 games, all as a starter, and records the lowest averages of his career with Miami. Butler averages 17 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.8 assists per meeting. How much money will Butler lose? Currently Jimmy Butler is among the 10 best paid players in the NBA. Well, in 2023 he signed a contract for three seasons in exchange for $ 146 million. Which leaves a salary for the 2024/2025 season of $ 48.7 million. This translates to Butler earning about $ 523,727 per game. So the sanction of at least five games will leave a salary loss for the $ 2.6 million player; figure that could extend if Miami Heat prolongs the sanction.

Why did the Porsche Taycan lose ground in 2024?

by

The Porsche Taycanwhich was once considered a benchmark in the luxury electric vehicle market, faced an unexpected challenge in 2024. Read also: Toyota Highlander Hybrid: test of this three-row SUV Despite the growing popularity of electric cars in various regions, The Taycan recorded a 49% drop in global sales, with only 20,836 units delivered. You can read: Tesla surprises: European production of the Model Y imminent Those figures mark a significant contrast with previous years and highlight the difficulties Porsche faces in its transition to electrification. According to the company, one of the main factors affecting the Taycan was the launch of its mid-cycle renewal. Traditionally, these types of updates result in a temporary decline in sales while customers wait for new models. “The acceleration of electric mobility is, in general, slower than expected”Porsche admitted in an official statement, acknowledging that expectations for the electric market may have been too optimistic. Impact on other models in the Porsche range While the Taycan was going through one of its worst years, other models of the German brand demonstrated notable stability and even growth. The Cayenne was positioned as Porsche’s best-selling model in 2024, reaching 102,889 units, 18% more than the previous year. This SUV, favored by a thorough renovation in 2023, has managed to consolidate itself as a key pillar in the company’s portfolio. In contrast, The Panamera registered a drop of 13% with 29,587 units delivered, while the Macanboth in its gasoline and electric versions, showed mixed results. The second generation electric model of the Macan recorded 18,278 saleseven though deliveries began in September. For its part, The Macan with an internal combustion engine accumulated 64,517 unitsbenefiting from the possibility of continuing in the European market until mid-2024 thanks to an exception in cybersecurity regulations. China: the great challenge for Porsche in 2024 The Chinese market, which has historically been one of the most important for Porsche, presented a significant contraction in 2024. Total sales in the country fell by 28%especially affecting models like the Panamera, whose demand in China represents a crucial part of its global deliveries. The Porsche Taycan at night. Credit: Porsche.Credit: Courtesy The decrease in sales in the People’s Republic was not offset by increases recorded in other regions. In Europe, excluding GermanyPorsche deliveries fell by 6%reaching the 466,000 unitswhile electric vehicles had a modest growth of 6%, with nearly 81,000 units sold. In North Americasales also decreased, registering 241,000 units, 13% less than in 2023. However, high-performance models such as The 911 and Boxster/Cayman demonstrated resilience, with increases of 2% and 15%, respectively. The future of the Taycan and Porsche’s electrification strategy Porsche faces a crossroads in its electric mobility strategy. Although the Taycan and the Macan electric have marked important milestones, the brand has recognized that it could reconsider its initial approach of total electrification. The possibility of incorporating combustion engines in models originally designed as electric is on the table, a decision that could be key to adapting to market demands. Furthermore, the development of new electric models such as successors to the Boxster and the Cayman faces delays. Although these sports cars are scheduled to be launched as electric vehicles, recent reports suggest that the development process is not moving as quickly as expected. The collapse of sales of the Taycan in 2024 underlines the challenges Porsche faces in a global market marked by economic uncertainty and slower growth in electric mobility. However, it also opens a window of opportunity for the company to reevaluate its strategy and strengthen its position in an increasingly competitive sector. With iconic models like the Cayenne leading the way and new bets on the horizon, Porsche has the potential to overcome these obstacles and maintain its status as a leader in innovation and performance. The decisions you make in the coming years will be crucial in defining your place in the era of electrification.

How to lose weight with exercises at home: 30 minute routine

by

Who said that to lose weight you need to starve yourself or sweat profusely in a gym? Health and physical activity experts have insisted that the key is consistency and perseverance. In this sense, Following an exercise routine in your own home may be enough to meet your daily quota.and best of all… you only need 30 minutes. During this time you can include different types of movements and strength exercises, moderate and intense, in addition to warming up and finishing with a cool down. With the contribution of specialists, We show you what you should do: How to divide your 30 minutes of exercises at home to lose weight 5 minutes warm up This includes five different exercise sessions, performing each one in a period of 60 secondswithout stopping. Do them in this order and you can vary them later: walking in place, gentle jumping jacks, arm rotations (30 seconds per arm), trunk twists, and dynamic arm and leg stretches. 20 minutes with an exercise circuit Again, five sessions of different movements, taking up a period of 4 minutes for each one and another for rest. The correct thing is 40 seconds of exercise and 20 seconds of breathing. Over time you can change the order, according to your tastes, but always include: squats, push-ups, jumping jacks, burpees and calf raises. 5 minute cool down The final part of the routine involves stretching your muscles to relax them, known as a cool down. You can start with a gentle walk in place, for two minutes, and then do some static stretches. For example: 30 seconds on each leg for the quadriceps and again another 30 seconds for the hamstrings. Then 30 seconds per arm and finish by giving the lower back a minute. Remember something fundamental: no one loses weight just by doing exercises. Training must ALWAYS be accompanied by proper nutrition and hydration. Also, try sleep at least 6 hours straight at night (if you are an adult) and reduce factors that cause stress.

Windows will lose one of its most emblematic functions

by

Microsoft is about to say goodbye to one of the most emblematic functions of Windows. In an attempt to modernize its operating system, the technology giant will leave behind a key component that we see since the times of Windows 95. The move not only forgets a part of Microsoft’s history, but further reduces customization options. According to a report from Neowin, Microsoft will remove access to free themes for Windows 10 and Windows 11. The company updated their support page warning that it will remove the website for downloading official themes for the operating system. This website offers a catalog with dozens of topics organized by various categories. “This page containing links to download Windows themes is deprecated and will be retired soon. We recommend that you download the latest themes directly from the Microsoft Store for the best experience,” Microsoft says. The Windows Themes website also includes a section that warns the end of support for Windows 10 starting October 14, 2025. A glance through the catalog is enough to realize thate Microsoft does not update it constantly. Proof of this are the themes of Gears of War 3 either Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocola game and movie that came out over a decade ago. Microsoft begins limiting access to Windows Themes The end of Windows Themes as we knew them began with Windows 8. The shift in focus towards a minimalist, tile-based interface killed off Aero and visual customization. Microsoft brought back some features with the arrival of Windows 10, although the themes were never the same. Yes ok the topics lost relevancesome users continue to install them on their computers. Unlike Windows 98, the current themes no longer modify cursors, sounds, or window layouts. Modern versions only allow you to adjust the colors, transparency and include wallpapers that are displayed in slides. The removal of the Temas website closes a chapter in the history of its operating system. Now, the only way to download them will be through the Microsoft Store, a place that offers few options to segment the search. Another option is to install a third-party tool like WindowBlindswhich allows turn your Windows 11 into a modern version of XP.
