This will save you time when working and will also free up space on your computer. The Windows 11 recycle bin is a very useful option, since it prevents important information from being lost on many occasions and that has been deleted on the computer by mistake. But, sometimes, you don't want something to go through it because it is important that it disappears from the team as soon as possible. We are going to tell you how to get it. This is a possibility that Microsoft has contemplated for some versions of its operating system for computers, and that remains valid in Windows 11. Therefore, if you carry out the actions that we are going to indicate, you can permanently delete any file ( either an image or a text document) without taking up space in the recycle bin -and by extension on the computer-. And, this, for many can be very important. Delete files in Windows 11 without using the Recycle Bin The easiest way to achieve what we say is to use a key combination that is effective whether you want to delete an individual file or if you have the idea of getting rid of a group of files. To do this, what you have to do is the following (and you must be clear that there is no going back on what you do): Select the target file that you want to remove from your Windows 11 computer. Now you must press both the Shift and Delete keys in combination. By doing this, the use of the recycle bin is bypassed and you delete everything as if you were using the old MS-DOS, for example. You have finished, and obviously you can repeat the operation as many times as you consider appropriate. Using a Windows 11 laptop Unsplash A second option that, perhaps, you like more In Windows 11 there is the possibility of deactivating the recycle bin, which means that everything you delete does not go through it and is directly deleted permanently. The risk of having problems in the event of an error increases significantly, but the truth is that for many this is an excellent way to save both space on the computer and time. These are the steps you have to take: Locate the recycle bin icon on the desktop, it is usually in the upper left. Now, right-click on there and from the context menu that appears, select Properties. Disable Recycle Bin in Windows 11 SmartLife You will see that a new window opens in which in the central area there is an option called Do not move files to the Recycle Bin. Remove files immediately upon deletion. Click there and then the OK button. Done, you have completed the process. link: https://cincodias.elpais.com/cincodias/2023/02/13/lifestyle/1676293712_122380.html

US ships and divers continue to search for remains of the downed balloon off the coast of South Carolina. In recent weeks, the US military has shot down four unidentified objects flying over the skies over North America, sparking growing concern in Washington. One senator even described the events as "nothing short of crazy." This Monday, the spokesman for the US Department of Defense, John Kirby, had to clarify that "there are no indications that it is extraterrestrial activity." He also highlighted the differences between the first Chinese object - which Beijing recognized as one of its weather balloons and denied it was a spy device - and the three smaller ones that were shot down later, whose origin is unknown. Kirby specified that the first was being "clearly controlled and maneuvered", while the other three lacked propulsion systems and moved with the wind in a less predictable manner.

And he justified his shooting down by considering them a potential threat to civilian air traffic by flying at an altitude similar to that of many planes. In any case, there are still many unanswered questions. This is what we know and what we don't know yet. How it all started A large, high-altitude object was seen on January 28 as it passed over the Aleutian Islands of Alaska, an archipelago in the North Pacific Ocean between the US and Russia. It was then tracked as it entered Canadian airspace before emerging over the western US state of Montana. On February 1, public attention was first drawn to the high-flying object after shocked residents of the city of Billings, which had already closed its local airport, took pictures of the object. Montana, a sparsely po[CENSORED]ted state, is home to one of three nuclear missile silo fields in the country, and authorities said the object was a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon that appeared to be monitoring sensitive sites in the region. Authorities noted that the object was over 60m tall and was equipped with multiple antennas, solar panels and surveillance equipment capable of intercepting telecommunications. But officials initially refused to shoot it down due to concerns about the damage falling debris could cause, so it was allowed to drift overhead across the continental US for days. The alleged Chinese spy balloon sighted over the city of Billings, Montana PICTURE SOURCE REUTERS Caption, The alleged Chinese spy balloon sighted over the city of Billings, Montana. On February 4, President Joe Biden authorized it to be shot down by an F-22 jet off the coast of South Carolina. Recovery teams have collected some debris and are using boats and mini-submarines to be able to retrieve more equipment from the balloon, which is submerged approximately 14m under water. China denied that the balloon was used for spying, saying it was a weather-monitoring device that went astray. The destruction of the balloon "seriously violated international practice," Beijing said, adding that it reserved the right "to use the necessary means to deal with similar situations." He also accused the United States of having operated balloons of this type over Chinese territory, something the White House has flatly denied. Kirby also claimed Monday that the first balloon was likely used to monitor sensitive military sites. He assured that it will take time to completely recover the remains of this object for meteorological and security reasons. At the moment, only a part of the entire load of the balloon sunk at the bottom of the Atlantic has been recovered. The Defense spokesman specified that it is about 13 meters deep and that the weather conditions are "quite harsh" on the east coast of the United States.

That was the president's proposal after installing the ambassadors in Canada, Brazil, Finland, Costa Rica, China and Mexico. President Gustavo Petro proposed the creation of an Americas Treaty on Clean Energies, when he installed the new ambassadors of Colombia in Canada, Carlos Arturo Morales López; Brazil, Guillermo Abel Rivera Flórez; Finland, Alvaro Sandoval Bernal; Costa Rica, Carlos Rodríguez Mejía; China, Sergio Cabrera Cárdenas, and Mexico, Álvaro Moisés Ninco Daza. Petro entrusted officials to initiate efforts to create the treaty, which would seek to build an electrical network from Patagonia to Alaska, in the United States (USA). The new ambassador to Canada was asked to "establish the first formal dialogues for a Treaty of the Americas in favor of energy integration." The vice president arrived in Havana this Thursday within the framework of the International Book Fair that has Colombia as a guest country.

(Read: "Historical Pact closes ranks around Daniel Rojas after suspension") According to the president, Canada is an important ally in the effort around clean energy, which the countries of South America can potentially generate and transmit through the electrical network so that they reach North America. Meanwhile, the new ambassador to Brazil, Guillermo Rivera, told him that his priority is to hold a meeting of experts "with all the countries that have territorial responsibility in the Amazon jungle, including France, in Tabatinga or in Leticia." Policy "I come to Cuba with the same commitment": Francia Márquez on the search for peace Feb 9, 2023 - 5:44 PM m.

In this sense, he announced that the country already has "a budget addition that Colombia will present to its Congress, next Monday, for 600 billion pesos, which will become future validity to guarantee that Colombia invests an amount of 150 of its resources. million dollars a year for 20 years.

He also asked him to work on the Latin American Conference on Drug Policy, which would be attended by the Mexican President, Andrés Manuel López Obrador.

And he added: “The two are the largest emitters of greenhouse gases in the world. The life of humanity depends on those countries. Whoever does it will be a world power.” Likewise, he stressed that there are several topics of conversation with China, among them the construction of a railway network that relieves congestion in the Panama Canal and the Bogotá Metro. link: https://www.elespectador.com/politica/presidente-petro-plantea-crear-un-tratado-de-las-americas-sobre-energias-limpias-embajadores-en-canada-brasil-finlandia-costa-rica-china-y-mexico/

Two weeks ago Spike, a 23-year-old Chihuahua mix from Ohio, was named the world's oldest living dog. Now, he has been completely dethroned. Bobi, at 30 years and 268 days, was crowned the world's oldest living dog, and the oldest dog ever recorded, by Guinness World Records (GWR). Bobi is very social and likes to nap and eat human food. Guinness World Records The purebred Portuguese Rafeiro do Alentejo—a breed of livestock guardian dog—has lived twice its life expectancy of 12 to 14 years, according to a GWR statement. In doing so, Bobi, who has spent his entire life with the Costa family in the town of Conqueiros, in Leiria, western Portugal, has broken a nearly century-old record held by the Australian shepherd dog Bluey, who lived to be 29 years old and 5 months between 1910 and 1939. While another Australian dog, Chilla, was believed to have lived to be 32 years and 3 days after her death on March 8, 1983, this has not been officially verified. Bobi's age has been confirmed by the Veterinary Medical Service of the Municipality of Leiria and SIAC, a pet database authorized by the Portuguese government. Flossie, the world's oldest living cat, is almost 27 years old Owner Leonel Costa, who was just 8 years old when Bobi was born on May 11, 1992, said in the statement: “Bobi has been a warrior all these years, only he knows how he has been holding up, it must not be easy because the average life of a dog is not that high and if it only talked, it could explain this success. The Costa family is used to long-lived dogs. According to a post on the GWR website, Bobi's mother, Gira, lived to be 18, and another of the family's dogs, Chicote, lived for 22 years. So Costa, who still hopes Bobi will be able to sire a few puppies one day, said he never thought of registering him as the oldest dog when he applied for the title of oldest living dog. “We view situations like this as a normal outcome of the life they lead, but Bobi is unique,” he said in the statement. The best kept secret But Bobi almost did not survive childhood. When he and his three siblings were born in the family woodshed, Costa's father decided they already had too many animals at home. Costa and his brother thought that his parents had taken all the cubs to destroy them. However, a few dismal days later, Bobi was found alive, safely hidden in a pile of logs. Costa and his brother kept the puppy's existence a secret until he opened his eyes: "We knew that when the dog opened his eyes, my parents would no longer bury him," Costa said, adding that "it was worth it." Wood in the Costa family outbuilding kept newborn Bobi hidden. Guinness World Records Bobi grew up "very social," along with many other animals, and roamed freely in the woods and farmland around the home, according to the statement. Costa attributes the longevity of his pet, in part, to the "calm and peaceful environment" in which he grew up, as well as his taste for human food. In his old age, Bobi has become less adventurous. He has difficulty walking and sometimes bumps into objects because his eyesight has deteriorated. He likes to nap after meals and he spends most of his time in the backyard with four cat friends. The dog had "a huge scare" in 2018 and ended up in hospital after collapsing with difficulty breathing. However, regular vet checkups "have always shown that he's doing well for his old age," Costa said. "We are very happy and grateful to life for allowing us, after 30 years, to have Bobi in our daily lives," he said. link: https://cnnespanol.cnn.com/2023/02/03/bobi-es-el-perro-vivo-mas-viejo-del-mundo-trax/

Sales figures are recovering after the pandemic: in 2022 Honda sold 17.6 million units worldwide, almost a third of the global market. The irruption in recent years of Chinese brands has marked a new chapter in the history of motorcycling. If the arrival of the four Japanese companies occurred in the 1960s and 1970s, we are now experiencing a similar cycle. Only that Chinese companies are not only 4, but many more... It may interest you Second hand: sales of used motorcycles do not stop rising You can't miss Motorcycle sales in Spain: 2022 ends positive The novelty that the Made in China push means in motorcycling could confuse us and think that we are experiencing a change of cycle with no turning back. The balances of power may shift in the motorcycle industry, but to this day at least, there remains an undisputed king (or queen). We are referring, of course, to the Honda Motor Co. Ltd. Honda: number 1 with almost 18 million and 29% of the market Honda: number one in the world The global leadership of the wing giant in 2022 has been indisputable, with sales figures around the world that are truly dizzy. Honda dispatched 17.6 million units (+4.9%) last year, representing 29.4% of the world market. The record was reached in 2018, the only year in which Honda exceeded 20 million units sold (mopeds, scooters and motorcycles). Then the pandemic hit and ruined the party, especially in the Southeast Asian and Indian markets. So in 2020 sales fell below 15 million. As of the first quarter of 2021, Honda's global sales have been recovering and in 2022 they have reached 17.6 million units sold. The Japanese giant controls almost a third of the world market. About half of Honda's sales take place in Southeast Asia, in countries like Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam, among others. In this region of the world, the increase compared to the figures for 2021 has been 9.3%. India, for its part, for Honda represents 30.7% of its market (+5.6%). The Japanese brand has a joint venture (joint venture) called Sundiro Honda in China, which has been operating since 2001. Although China is a gigantic market, perhaps the Japanese company has not been able to take full advantage of it by not having electric models, very demanded by the consumer of that country (and promoted by the Government). link: https://www.moto1pro.com/actualidad/honda-la-numero-1-con-casi-18-millones-y-un-29-del-mercado

But, surely, when you have spent some time in which an artist that you hate with all your might sneaks into you, you have thought that it would be good to be able to indicate that you do not like this one.

Venezuelan journalists revealed how in a race against time and in the face of Gustavo Petro's triumph for the presidency, businessmen acquired the company that would be favored by PDVSA and Tareck El Aissami to export Venezuelan gas. At the end of November 2022, Colombia woke up with the news that, contrary to what was expected, Venezuela had authorized a private company to export natural gas to Colombia for the first time in history. This is Prodata Energy, a company that operates in Caracas, which received authorization to make shipments through an inactive 224-kilometer gas pipeline that goes from the western region of that country to the northeast of Colombia. Gustavo Petro and Nicolás Maduro after signing the joint declaration. This is the private Venezuelan company that would have been authorized to export natural gas to Colombia, according to Bloomberg According to an agreement that was signed in July and disclosed by Bloomberg, Prodata will deliver 25 million cubic feet of gas per day through Energy Transitions SAS ESP, a Colombian distributor. Natural gas can be key in the energy transition. Prodata will deliver 25 million cubic feet of gas per day through Energy Transitions SAS ESP, a Colombian distributor. - Photo: Getty Images/iStockphoto This left many investors cold, since from the beginning it was said that any operation of this type would only be with Ecopetrol or Transportadora de Gas Internacional (TGI). Even the Colombian ambassador in Caracas, Armando Benedetti, came out to deny that Prodata Energy was going to receive these contracts, clarifying that everything would be handled through the state oil company and leaving out the possibility of this business falling into private hands. . The latest data from the gas sector and that were revealed by the ANH, indicate that the average production of commercialized gas was 1,087.29 million cubic feet per day (mcfd) in August 2022, which represented a decrease of 2.97 % compared to the previous month, when it reached 1,120.61 mcfd. This decrease occurred due to the drop in the average production of the Cupiagua Liria field and due to electrical failures in the Clarinete field. Oil in Venezuela Prodata Energy will keep this business and it has also been developing for several months, even since President Gustavo Petro was in the campaign. - Photo: Getty Images/iStockphoto Although the controversy calmed down at the time, a new report by journalist Roberto Deniz, published on the armando.info portal, revives the issue and ensures that Prodata Energy will keep this business and that it has also been developing for several months , even since President Gustavo Petro was in the campaign, since it is aligned with his interests to appear as a global leader in clean energy and in the abolition of the use of fossil fuels, in order to care for the environment. “The political rapprochement between Caracas and Bogotá reactivates the gas pipeline that connects both nations. But his journey of 224 kilometers in a straight line can be summed up in a loop that now benefits the businesses of Bernardo Arosio Hobaica and Jorge Jara Salas. In a race against time and against the electoral calendar that led Gustavo Petro to the presidency, both businessmen rushed to acquire the company that would be favored by PDVSA and Tareck El Aissami to export Venezuelan gas, while establishing corporate relations with the company that is going to receive it to distribute it in Colombia”, says this report. Timeline of how the Prodata Energy business was completed. Timeline of how the Prodata Energy business was completed. - Photo: Image taken from Armando.info This article, written by Venezuelan journalists, shows how the aforementioned businessmen waged a race against time in which, for example, Production Data Acquisition Wire Line, an oil service provider founded in 1971, was acquired and renamed in Zulia state, in order to be able to offer its services to Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) and benefit from the contract for the export of gas to Colombia. The criticisms against the Minister of Mines and Energy, Irene Vélez, do not stop, who will now have to demonstrate why there are so many inaccuracies on a crucial issue. Will Colombia import gas from Venezuela? Controversial contract uncovered in the midst of the debate to the Minister of Mines and Energy “The documents obtained for this report not only prove that Arosio and Jara became the new owners of Prodata Energy, almost simultaneously with the rise of Gustavo Petro as president of Colombia and the announced reestablishment of diplomatic relations with the Chavista regime. They also reveal that the same businessmen have a presence in their counterpart in the Colombian side of the business, since they also have corporate ties with Energy Transitions, the Colombian company that will distribute Venezuelan natural gas in Colombia," they added. link: https://www.semana.com/economia/macroeconomia/articulo/asi-es-el-negociazo-de-venezuela-para-exportar-gas-a-colombia/202337/

The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) has been plagued with issues since its inception. So when a new report was released from Congress last week on the fraudulent activity surrounding the PPP, it was not a surprise to see that it covered 130 pages. Yet what was a surprise, was the title that the Congressional Committee used for the report: “We Are Not the Fraud Police”: How Fintechs Facilitated Fraud in the Paycheck Protection Program. The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) has been plagued with issues since its inception. So when a new report was released from Congress last week on the fraudulent activity surrounding the PPP, it was not a surprise to see that it covered 130 pages. Yet what was a surprise, was the title that the Congressional Committee used for the report: “We Are Not the Fraud Police”: How Fintechs Facilitated Fraud in the Paycheck Protection Program. The report’s title suggests that the fintech industry facilitated fraud in the PPP, but the report itself tells a very different story. Of the twelve fintech companies mentioned in the report, only four fintech companies are described as sources of fraud and discussed at length: Womply, Blueacorn, Kabbage, and Bluevine (Figure 1). And yet, the report’s chief recommendation on page seven is for Congress and the Small Business Administration (SBA) to consider carefully whether to work with fintech firms at all. Considering an estimated 2,700 fintech firms have been founded in the United States over the last decade, it seems to be a bold leap to say the performance of these four firms should decide the fate of so many others. This phrasing is most concerning because it is likely that this recommendation will extend far beyond the PPP or other government benefit programs. Policymakers and the general public will likely see—with the help of banking lobbyists, no doubt—“fintechs facilitated fraud” and look no further. The report will be cited to justify putting more roadblocks before the fintech industry and more protections for the legacy banking system, neither of which is warranted. Were this issue not enough on its own, the report largely glosses over the fact that Congress and the SBA deliberately removed upfront controls and safeguards to rush the $800 billion program out the door. For example, in April 2020, the SBA told lenders: The lender does not need to conduct any verification if the borrower submits documentation supporting its request for loan forgiveness and attests that it has accurately verified the payments for eligible costs. The Administrator will hold harmless any lender that relies on such borrower documents and attestation from a borrower. (Emphasis added) It took 18 months for Congress to put this report together, but the problems were evident from day one. Rather than use the misconduct of four companies to lash out at an entire industry, Congress should acknowledge how the government itself facilitated fraud in the PPP. link: https://www.aier.org/article/who-committed-ppp-fraud/

Are your adult children not leaving home? Orcas suffer from this too (CNN) -- It's no secret that parenthood can be demanding and sacrifices are often made for the sake of offspring. But for female orcas, the role can be especially difficult. New research suggests that female killer whales may be giving up further offspring for their male offspring, even as adults. The research, published Wednesday in the journal Current Biology, focused on a group of killer whales known as the "southern resident" po[CENSORED]tion, off the coast of Washington state and British Columbia. The Whale Research Center, which participated in the study, has been observing the group since 1976. Two killer whales chase white sharks off the coast of South Africa This is an unusual species, as males and females remain with their mothers for their entire lives. However, the "cost" of caring for the mother is higher in the case of sons. Michael N. Weiss, director of research at the center and a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Exeter, said in a press release: "We have known for over a decade that adult male killer whales depend on their mothers to stay alive, but it's never been clear whether mothers pay a price for it." The data revealed "a strong negative correlation between the number of surviving weanlings of females and their annual probability of producing a viable calf," according to a news release. And the result remained the same regardless of the age of the son. "The magnitude of the cost that females take on to care for their weaned children was truly staggering," Weiss said. "Although there is some uncertainty, our best estimate is that each additional surviving pup reduces the chances of a female having a new calf in any given year by more than 50%. This is a huge cost to care for [adult] pups. ". orcas calves According to experts, female whales reduce the probability of having more calves to care for their adult children. Credit: Whale Research Center Share the food The researchers don't know why female killer whales are less likely to reproduce in these cases, but they suspect that sharing food with their adult offspring may mean the mothers have to survive on less. Sam Ellis, a researcher in animal behavior at the University of Exeter and a co-author on the paper, told CNN on Thursday that the nature of the mother's care largely revolves around her diet of Chinook salmon. "Really the key to this form of care is sharing food," he explained. "We think a lot of caregiving is physically providing food for your adult children," he said, though they also lead them to the source of nutrition. "Having a daughter doesn't affect her chances of reproducing, but having a son of any age has a negative impact on the mother's chances of reproduction," Ellis said. Scientists record killer whales for the first time hunting and killing an adult blue whale According to the team, this finding is very rare. "It's further evidence of how special (and perhaps unique) the mother-infant bond is in killer whales," Weiss said. Ellis added: "There are many examples [in mammals] of maternal care and maternal investment in young pups. But in all the examples that have been studied so far, once the pup reaches maturity, that investment seems to stop." "We know that children whose mothers die have a really high probability of dying the following year," he said, adding that while female orcas can live to be 80 years old, males are "very lucky to make it to 40." Southern residents are critically endangered, so the study could have important implications, according to the researchers. Ellis noted that the team wants to further study the long-term effects the findings could have on orca po[CENSORED]tions. Luke Rendell, a professor of biology at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, told CNN that the study, in which he was not involved, was "fascinating." "It opens a new window... [to] how the evolutionary dance between the interests of individuals and genes constantly interacts with ecology and sociality." "Many will smile at the jokes about children in need, but also, I hope, will ponder whether the parallels run deeper in this long-lived and highly social mammal. Such insights are only possible through dedicated, long-term studies, often underappreciated by the funders of the investigation". link: https://cnnespanol.cnn.com/2023/02/09/orcas-crias-hijos-adultos-trax/

Vinto offers its own GS in the Asian country: the 525 is a medium trail with a Loncin engine, single-sided swingarm and the option of aluminum panniers. Vinto Motor is a motorcycle brand that belongs to the Chinese automobile group Chongqing Sokon Industry Group. So far, the manufacturer offers very few two-wheeled models and its goal is to achieve a product that attracts a demanding customer in terms of displacement, performance and quality. The strategy that has been decided to adopt consists of consolidating itself first in the gigantic domestic market before attempting the adventure of conquering the world with its motorcycles. It may interest you Voge 2023 news: 900 trail and 500 scrambler You can't miss New Honda 2023: C500 for A2, Forza 125-350 and electric The Vinto GS 525 would have to change its name in order to be sold abroad because BMW did not think it would allow the acronym GS (Gelände/Strasse - Campo/Carretera) to be used that defines its trail models, especially the almighty R 1250 GS in which the Vinto GS 525 is not only inspired by the name. Chinese Trail with 54 CV for 4900 euros: the Vinto GS 525 Vinto GS 525: 54 CV for 4900 euros The small trail uses a 494 cc inline twin-cylinder engine and, according to the manufacturer, its aesthetics have been inspired by the wings of birds, while on the front we find the classic duck beak typical of the BMW GS and or the Suzuki V-Strom. The Vinto GS 525 mounts spoked wheels fitted with tubeless tires (tubeless) in the typical measurements of this type of motorcycle: 110/80-19 in front and 150/70-17 in the rear. To which must be added country-style suspensions, an inverted fork with 180 mm of travel has been mounted on the front train. A monoshock is responsible for keeping the rear of the bike in order. The steel frame has a bolted subframe and there is no lack of a single-sided aluminum swingarm. The secondary transmission is by chain (no cardan in this case). To stop the beast are two 300mm front discs supported by a 240mm rear and dual-channel ABS. Vinto declares a weight of 205 kg with a 21 liter tank full of fuel. Which gives the model a range of more than 500 km. The engine is a classic in-line twin, inspired by that of the Honda CB500 and it is curious that it is manufactured by Loncin, a Chinese gear that has a close business relationship with BMW. Claimed power is 54 PS (39.6 kW) at 8,500 rpm, with peak torque of 44.5 Nm at 7,000 rpm. In the event that the Vinto GS 525 arrived in Europe, it would do so with a 48 CV version aimed at A2 card holders. In China it is sold for 35,980 yuan (about 4,900 euros). If you choose to mount the suitcases and the upper trunk, the price goes up to 5,500 euros. Once the brand is established in its domestic market, the next step should be international expansion... link: https://www.moto1pro.com/actualidad/trail-china-con-54-cv-por-4900-euros-la-vinto-gs-525

A new transcription function would allow this to be achieved. Voice notes have become a widely used option in the WhatsApp messaging application. But this does not mean that it is to everyone's taste. If you are not very convinced, the company is close to launching a new tool that is perfect for you. We tell you what it is about. Some time ago it was detected that one of the options being considered for the application was to include an option that would allow voice notes to be transcribed into text, which fits much better with WhatsApp history. The fact is that there were some screens where you could see exactly this, but now it has gone a step further and included it in the latest test version for the iOS operating system. Therefore, it was quite serious with the development of the tool in question. What will the transcription that will arrive on WhatsApp be like? Well, the truth is that from the source of the information it is made very clear that everything will be really simple, since, with the arrival message of the voice note, a button will be included that, when used, will carry out the transcription work. It will all be that simple. Of course, so that there are no doubts about what has been converted, a new tab will be opened in which you can see the result obtained. It seems pretty well thought out. WhatsApp transcription tool WBetainfo On the other hand, it has also been verified that, in the case of not being able to make a quality transcription (in cases such as if there is a lot of background noise or if the person speaks in an intelligible way), a message will be displayed in which this is stated. And, in addition, the reasons that exist for it. Therefore, WhatsApp has thought of everything. Obviously, the resulting text can be used regularly, so it will be possible to copy it, for example. Good news with privacy This is something that could be worrisome at first, since it is believed that WhatsApp's first intention was to send the audio to Apple's servers to be transcribed. But, in the end, this points out that it will not be the case, and not even the company owned by Meta will have a copy. Therefore, what will be done is download language packs together with the tool so that it works locally. It will be necessary to see if this increases what occupies the application in a disproportionate way. For now, as we have indicated before, this option is only in the trial version of WhatsApp. But it is expected to be quickly tested so that its arrival is as fast as possible for all users. The reason is none other than to take advantage of the fact that this function, for the moment, does not have any of its rivals... such as Telegram. link: https://cincodias.elpais.com/cincodias/2023/02/10/lifestyle/1676042266_095369.html
