by

Friday arrives and that means two things: that the weekend is just around the corner and that the New Crossover episode. As always, we are facing a very varied program in which we talk about the new Nintendo Switch 2 And our experience during this first month of life, of Peter Thiel and of the new Tesla Model Y. Videogames, PayPal Mafia And technological cars, there is nothing. First, Carlos and Jaume discover with our partner Javier Pastor the peculiar story of Peter Thiela well -known executive from Silicon Valley who co -founded Paypal and whose fortune amounts to more than 2,000 million dollars. It was also the first investors on Facebook and, today, is dedicated to the world of Big Data, Intelligence and Security in Palantir. Then Jaume tells us how his experience with the new Tesla Model and Juniper. The firm has refined the formula in its new SUV, offering better materials and finishes, an optimized dynamic and a Price/autonomy ratio that is still one of the best in the market. Of course, it still has things to improve and the competition squeezes more than ever. Finally, we review how the Nintendo Switch 2 for a montha console that has proven to be as juicy as polarizing. The new Nintendo laptop wins in potential, materials and ergonomics, but its screen, despite having won seclies, is already LCD again to have an improvable brightness level. We would also have liked to have enjoyed better autonomy. On YouTube | Crossover

I have been on the PS5 for a month. My new console is Netflix and I am clear that it is the future of video games

by

I love video games, but this last month it has been difficult to find a hole to play. I know I’m not alone in thisbut luckily we have many portable platforms (Nintendo Switch 2 He is giving me very good times) with which to play a few minutes when you can, but this last month he has not given me life to play console games on TV. Beyond for the Analysis of ‘Death Stranding 2‘, clear. Now, I have played a lot, and curiously on the platform that I least expected: Netflix. And he has returned to remind me with force that the future does not go through having a console connected to TV: it goes through not having a console and continuing to play video games. And I don’t like the idea at all. 7 tricks to make Netflix the most Turning TV into a console. Netflix does not need a presentation, but from a few years to this part, in addition to having series and movies on its platform, it also has video games. Recently, its application on televisions and devices such as Chromecast HE updated with a new menu which allowed to see more clearly the tab dedicated to video games. Just because, Netflix has mobile video games For a long time, but on TV it is more recent. And it is not that you need much to play them: simply TV, choose the compatible game (it is in beta and something tells me that it will never get out of there) and a mobile. These games are executed in the cloud and, when we click on which we want, we simply scan the QR code that appears on the screen with our mobile and it becomes the game command. So simple. ‘Oxenfree’ is a spectacular adventure The experience. Go ahead that 80% of the few games that Netflix allows you to play on TV convince me rather little. They are not for me, but there are about three or four that I have been playing a lot and I think they are a good gate to the world of video games for people who have not played so far. Because starting to play is very simple and the games that Netflix is ​​testing are nothing demanding with the controls. ESCANES THE QR WITH YOUR MOBILE AND MADE There is a crosshead, a couple of action buttons and voila. It is focusing on more narrative, puzzles or management experiences, and not needing great reflexes are, as I say, a good entrance door. In addition, although image quality is not the best, they work really well in the cloud. The experience and number of servers that Netflix have and is a very satisfactory plug & play experience. The good thing is also that you have games on the mobile included with your subscription. These do have to install them and they are somewhat more complex about their controls (spend something like ‘GTA San Andreas‘ either ‘Katana Zero‘Without a command I see it impossible), but they are quality games and that, as I say, allow someone who pay 8 euros per month and do not have a console or PC can enjoy video games. The command could not be simpler. And that is good The catalog mess. The problem is that, although in recent weeks I had a great time with Netflix’s video games, you never know how long they will last on the platform. Or how much will the platform itself last. This week we learned that, after a very strong bet of Netflix for video games, they were going to start withdrawing some of the best they had. 20% of the catalog disappearsbeing among those who strive balls like ‘Hades‘,’ Katana Zero ‘, the three’Monument Valley‘,’Death’s Door‘or the sublime’Braid‘. It is something that adds to closure of your AAA study In October of last year, which leaves us with the feeling that this great bet that the company made, investing a lot of money on servers, technology, titles such as’ and buying licenses as the aforementioned ‘GTA’ Or studies like Night School, staggers. And it’s strange when His initial bet was extremely upset And little by little, They struggled so that they were taken into account in this video game. But yes, it is the future. I do not mean that the future is Netflix in particular, but to this type of experience. We will see what path Netflix follows after the very bad news of recent days, but as someone who opted for Stadiawho has played a lot to the cloud games of Game Pass and PS Now and enjoy your Steam library with Steam Link and GeForce NowI am clear that the future is not a pot that consumes light and occupies a space in the Tele furniture, but something like Steam Decka Consolidated PC or Nintendo Switch 2 and, to play on TV, the game in the cloud. And think that this will be the future does not mean that I like it, since that implies the definitive death of a physical format that is very touched and that it is, although it does not always happen, the only thing that assures us that the games are ours. Because with the new albums that are launchersthe Game Key Card De Switch 2 or digital games, unfortunately there are more and more examples than The games do not belong to us As it happened before. But that is a topic for another day and something very personal. What I am clear is that someone who did not enjoy video games, with proposals such as Netflix or Amazon Luna They can get into the car. And that is great.

We are on our way to beat all temperature records in a month of June. The fault is of a “jam” in the atmosphere

by

Heat is still installed in peninsular Spain. This week a Dana It seems aimed To give us a brief respite but experts anticipate that, as on previous occasions, this will be brief. An exceptional June. There is a week left for the month of June and experts anticipate the possibility of confirming as the hottest in the historical series. All that despite the appearance of tormentous episodes (some of enough intensity) interspersed between extreme heat days. For now the most warm June record The 2017 holds it. That year, the average temperature of the first month of the summer was 24.1 Celsius, three degrees above the average for the period 1981-2010 and 0.1º above the previous record, registered in 2003. That June 2017 was also slightly more humid than it is common for this month, with 3% more rainfall than the average of the period between 1981 and 2010. A stagnant circulation. According to Experts explain As the physicist, disseminator and researcher at Aemet JJ German, the situation could go worse after this week’s truce. An “stuck” atmospheric circulation would be, at least in part, responsible for this month of June anomalous and hot. The situation, if it changes, will be worse. According to German, during the next few days “Subtropical Anticyclonic Dorsal” capable of reaching in itself record levels on the Iberian Peninsula. Meanwhile, under the influence of a Dana. This seems to suggest that the thermal relief caused by the proximity of a Dana will be only temporary. Despite this, the presence of this depression in height implies that we must prepare again for the arrival of instability and rainfall. During the next few days, they will be in force various yellow warnings issued by the State Meteorology Agency (AEMET) to alert the risk derived from these storms. These notices will coexist with those emitted to warn of heat, will concentrate on the north, especially in the northwestern quadrant of the Peninsula. In Your forecastthe agency talks about storms and “locally strong” storms in the northern third, with hail and gusts “very strong”. The situation will affect particularly, says Aemet, north of the plateau, Cantabrian mountain range, Pyrenees and the north of the Iberian system. The risks of a warm summer. Last week, Aemet published its spring analysis and its forecasts for summer. In its presentation, the agency indicated that the first had stood out for high rainfall, while summer could stand out for warmer temperatures. The succession of a wet spring and a summer of heat implies certain health risks: the appearance of some insect pests have put the health authorities alert to the possibility of the appearance of potential vectors of diseases, such as the Tigre mosquito. The hot warm summers also tend to imply a greater risk of fire, although in this case, the rainfall of recent months could play in our favor.

The Accessibility Law enters into force this month and wants to change everything. From the ATM to Amazon

by

As of June 28, many things will change, from the ATM menu, through the gas station’s payment terminal, to the website where you make your purchases online. The reason? It is the day that the European Directive on Accessibility. The objective of this standard is to facilitate the use of these elements, especially by people who have Some type of disability sensory or motor. Products and services it affects. The text details products that will have to adapt to the new frame. Banks automatic ATMs are an example, but will affect all types of hardware equipment and also at the software level. These are the main ones: Computer equipment for general use: computers, tablets, smartphones and their operating systems. Self -service terminals: ATMs, ticket vending machines, shift dispensers and their operating systems Telecommunications: smartphones and other equipment to access telecommunication services. Also telephone and internet services. Electronic readers Audiovisual Communication Services: As streaming or digital television platforms, Transport services: Websites, mobile applications, electronic tickets and real -time information about the trip. Electrical, water or gas services. Banking services for consumers. Electronic books and software for reading. Electronic commerce: online stores and sales platforms. Emergencies: 112 calls. The three commandments of accessibility. The regulations affect countless equipment and the requirements vary for each of them. However, all have a common framework that has three major objectives: that they are available by more than one sensory channel (visual, auditory or tactile), that are easy to understand and that can be perceived by all users. ATMs, payment terminals and the like. ATMs that meet the regulations must meet a series of specific requirements. For example, they will have to offer an auditory option for blind users, in addition to allowing the use of headphones for a matter of privacy. The keys and controls must be noticeable to touch and the screen and all its elements will have the proper contrast. Image: CaixaBank Web pages and online stores do not get rid. In this case, apply the UNE Standards 139803 and WCAG 2.2. The requirements A must meet (there are three levels, for example for public websites they will have to meet the AA level). Some of these requirements include that the page give us alternatives to the text (videos, images and audio), which can be navigated using only the keyboard, that the structure is easy to understand, with expansable texts up to 200%, well -labeled buttons and forms (nothing to ‘click here’, the user has to know where it goes) or that all the images have alternative text to be described to blind users. Online trade pages such as Amazon must meet the same requirements as web pages, but they must also make the purchase process accessible through a sound and visual notice, for example by adding something to the cart or paying the purchase. Another aspect is that they will have to facilitate details about the accessibility of the products they sell. Amazon already has a section where these requirements detail To their sellers, but we still do not know what changes will make on their website from the 28th. We have contacted them to learn more details and update when we have an answer. The hardware still has margin, the websites no. The application of the standard is June 28, but that does not mean that all affected products and services will change that day. In the case of ATMs and the like, those that were installed before that date may continue to be used “until the end of their useful life from the economic point of view, although without exceeding ten years after their commissioning.” There are 47,000 ATMs in Spain and the cost of updating each unit could amount to 3,000 euros. Of course, all who install new ones must comply with the regulations and also the entities must inform their users of which they are updated and which are not. However, according to SHOPPRESthis margin would only apply to hardware products that are already in the market, online stores must adapt on the 28th of this month, except for an exception: to be a microenterprise. To be considered microenterprise, it must have less than 10 people on staff, provided that less than 2 million euros per year is billed. Of course, online stores that are launched after June 28 must already meet the requirements. The magnifying glass of iOS There is already much advanced. Many companies have already integrated these standards in their products, so on the 28th we will not see a radical change everywhere. For example, in banking, Ing already meets The standard UNE 139803: 2012 on its website, although they do not mention anything of the ATMs and the attention offices. In the case of Caixabank, the entity highlights that Your ATMs are accessible (although without detailing whether they comply with the new standard). In the case of computer equipment or devices such as smartphones or tablets, operating systems such as iOS, Android either Windows They have numerous as a magnifying glass to expand the content, screen readers, contrast settings and size for the text and much more. Of course there are lags that must take advantage of the new standard if they do not want to face a fine. This is the case of state websites, if we look at the last Web Accessibility Observatory Reportthe thing did not paint well in the late 2024. More than half of the websites did not even comply with level A.

It is the fourth blackout in just over a month

by

The palm has run out of light. The entire island went to energy zero on Tuesday at 17:32. Two hours later, 50,289 users still without electricity supply because of a breakdown. Energy zero. The origin of the total black in La Palma this June 10 was the “shot of a generation turbine” at the Central de los Guinchos, in Breña Alta, according to an Endesa statement. The failure caused the complete collapse of the system, which as we all know since the end of April It is known as an “energy zero”. The island still had no supply two hours later, according to The breakdown map of the distributor. Red Electric is Informing live of the advances in the replacement of the supply: 6.2 megawatts of the demand had been replaced at 20:10. Emergency Plan. Since there could be people trapped in elevators and others who depend on electricity, the Canary Islands government has activated The “Emergency Plan of the Canary Islands” (Platca) in alert situation. Meanwhile, technicians work at the start of the generation, still without a clear forecast for the complete restoration of the service. Fourth blackout. While it is the first that affects the more than 50,000 palm supplies, this is the fourth big blackout suffered by the island in just over a month. The most popular until now occurred on May 8, when a ruling in a substation of the same central of the Guinchos left 19,526 customers without light for almost two hours. Without light on the beautiful island. Insular electrical systems such as Palma are more vulnerable because they are not interconnected with large continental networks, so a serious failure in a main generation plant, as has happened today in the Guinchos, can more easily cause the collapse of the entire network. But with the energy zero as a drop that fills the glass, the situation has revealed the fragility of the island’s electrical infrastructure. After four blackouts, the question is what structural measures to take to guarantee the stability of the service. Image | E-Distribution In Xataka | Spain has flooded its territory of solar panels. It is a perfect recipe for an old dream: reindustrialization

A month after the blackout in Spain, we continue to drag the same problem that led us to him: electric networks

by

The energy transition progresses strongly, but does so on a fragile base. According to the International Energy Agency, In your latest reportthis year 3.3 billion dollars in energy will be invested and only 12% will go to the networks. The imbalance is evident. And also worrying. A worrying imbalance. According to the IEAfor every dollar destined to produce electricity, just 40 cents are invested in transport networks. There are even more, the transformers can take up to four years to be available. To that is added a worrying increase. Since 2018, the prices of cables and transformers have doubled, making the expansion of infrastructure that support the system even more difficult and expensive. Is there a risk of blackout? The IEA has made it clear: “Entrepreneurship safety requires a rapid increase in networks.” A warning that resonates strongly on the Iberian Peninsula, which the report mentions as a case study after The April 2025 blackout. As for the blackout, and even without definitive official causes, everything indicates that it was not caused solely by the low inertia of the system, as initially suggested, but by a chain of chained technical failures. However, what this incident illustrates a structural problem: Investment in infrastructure and support technologies, such as MicroRedes either storage. Without a reinforced and prepared network to manage an increasingly complex electrical system, you can suffer interruptions. A bottleneck. There is even more, because a human capital challenge is added to investment problems. IEA has estimated that by 2030 there will be a deficit of 1.5 million workers qualified in electrical networks. This shortage affects key tasks such as the installation of transformers, digital systems or advanced control. In addition, planning and permits are slow processes. Networks require more than cables: they need intelligence, distributed control and resilience against failures. Are there solutions on the horizon? IEA has proposed Two clear lines: on the one hand, long -term network plans (minimum 10 years) such as those already applied India, Brazil or South Africa; And on the other, bet on digitalizationwhich already represents 25% of the global investment in electrical networks. The urgency of reinforcement. The final warning of the report does not leave interpretations: “Without action, the electrical networks will be the bottleneck of the energy transition” without a modern, robust and prepared network to manage variable clean energy, the green transition will not only be inefficient: it can become insecure. Renewable growth cannot be sustained on infrastructure of the twentieth century. So here a fairly clear question underlies: are we reinforcing our electrical networks with the same ambition with which we install renewables, or are we building on unstable terrain?
