Currently, mechanical hard drives are still the best and cheapest option for mass data storage. This may not be of value for everyone, since capacity and speed are required for certain cases. Apex Storage has introduced a PCIe card, Apex X21, that supports up to 21 M.2 SSDs for a maximum capacity of 168TB. We have commented on some occasion that SSDs in M.2 format have a major problem with capacity. The technical limit is 4TB, although there are some drives (literally four) that reach 8TB. Said problem is given by space limitations and thermal problems. Create your own 168TB (give or take) SSD Actually, the Apex X21 card is nothing more than a motherboard to install M.2 SSD that connects to a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot. This card is focused on photography and video editing professionals. Such segments require large storage capacities and read/write speeds. This expansion card has a total of 21 slots for M.2 PCIe 4.0 SSDs. Drives with a PCIe 5.0 interface have not been supported due to their scarcity and absurdly expensive drives. This drive allows for a maximum capacity of 168TB (with Corsair MP400 8TB drives) and read and write speeds of up to 31GB/s. This expansion card is characterized by having a length of 274.2 mm long, which is quite a lot. The card, according to Apex Storage, combines two PCBs to form this Apex X21, as a sandwich. It is designed to accommodate up to 21 M.2 format solid-state hard drives. It has not been revealed which controller it uses, but it will be some custom solution. It has a sandwich type design, as we said, being two independent PCBs and held by two specific communication connectors. We found 10 M.2 drives in the internal area, so to speak. While in the external zone we have another 11 M.2 slots. The controller, on the other hand, has a large passive central heat sink. Drives located outdoors may have thermal issues normal to M.2 drives. But the internal ones are the ones that will suffer the most from thermal stress, as they have a system with little space to circulate the air. https://hardzone.es/noticias/componentes/ssd-m2-pcie-168-tb/

Three years ago, the world was already holding its breath in the face of the rapid advance of the virus, but nothing yet indicated that the economy was going to turn around like a sock in a matter of hours. That the activity was going to be artificially hibernated. And that the planet, in short, would wait for months waiting for the lack of confinement. The possibility of the greatest recession ever experienced in peacetime entered neither head. Nor was it that that peace was about to be blown up with the first war on European soil since the Balkans. Let energy and raw materials beat... https://elpais.com/economia/2023-03-12/los-tres-anos-mas-salvajes-de-la-historia-economica-moderna.html

China's premier heads the State Council. Its functions are traditionally linked to the day-to-day management of the country and the direction of macroeconomic policy. With no experience in central government and Xi's authority, analysts question the scope of his mandate. Considered one of Xi Jinping's closest confidants, Li Qiang was named China's new premier on Saturday, the day after the president won an unprecedented third term. The former head of the Communist Party in Shanghai, who oversaw the two months of chaotic anti-covid lockdown last spring, succeeds Li Keqiang, in office since 2013. The 63-year-old leader received almost all the votes of the delegates gathered at the annual session of the National People's Congress (APN), who had unanimously re-elected Xi the day before for five more years as head of state. 📝 We suggest: Passport to leave Russia: give birth in Argentina Xi's resolution appointing Li Qiang as prime minister was read out in the huge hall of the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Saturday morning. During the vote, which ended with 2,936 votes in favor, three against and eight abstentions, Xi and Li demonstrated complicity, exchanging smiles and courtesies. Upon his appointment, he swore with his right fist raised and his left hand on the Constitution "to work hard in building a great modern socialist country." 📌You may be interested: China as a mediator between Iran and Saudi Arabia, another setback for the US. China's premier heads the State Council. Its functions are traditionally linked to the day-to-day management of the country and the direction of macroeconomic policy. Li's rise appeared to be in jeopardy after his management of the lockdown of Shanghai, China's most populous city and economic hub, whose residents struggled to access food and medical care. But this stain was left aside in the face of Xi's strategy of surrounding himself with faithful in the highest echelons of power, and in October he was promoted to number two in the Communist Party. Xi's confidence Unlike most of his predecessors, Li Qiang has no experience in central government, but he has extensive background in local administration, commanding the eastern coastal provinces of Zhejiang and Jiangsu. Li, who began his career as an irrigation pump station operator, was Xi's chief of staff when he led the party in Zhejiang from 2004 to 2007. His rapid promotions since then reflect the high level of trust the Chinese president has in him, which led him to the post of party secretary in Shanghai in 2017. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/li-qiang-aliado-de-xi-jinping-nombrado-primer-ministro-de-china-noticias-hoy/

If we have a problem with our computer related to boot sectors, a virus, a forgotten Windows user password or if we simply want to make a backup, one of the most po[CENSORED]r applications currently available is Hiren's Boot CD . Hiren's Boot CD is a set of applications that start with Windows 10 PE and that allows us to perform repair and maintenance tasks on any PC. However, it is not the only option available on the market. Today we are talking about an interesting alternative that has little or nothing to envy Hiren's Boot CD. We are talking about Strelec. Strelec, like Hiren's Boot, is an ISO that includes Windows 10 PE with which we can start any PC and also includes a large number of applications to solve any problem that our PC is having. It is compatible with both modern and old PCs and allows you to perform different component integrity tests without having to load the graphical interface, from the start screen. https://www.softzone.es/noticias/programas/programa-antivirus-backup-contrasenas/

What would it cost Microsoft to turn its Xbox into a PC or release a derivative model that could be used as a conventional computer? We explain to you to what extent it is possible and what difficulties they would encounter in order to do so, not only technical, but also commercial. We explain all the details. In four generations of Xbox consoles we have never seen a version of it that works like a PC. While Xbox 360 was not based on computer hardware, the first one and later both Xbox One and Xbox Series were. It was even raised in its day as a low-cost computer. What prevents Microsoft from doing it? Xbox has certain differences compared to a PC We have to start from the fact that Xbox runs three operating systems at the same time, the first one that is Hyper-V is the one that has direct access to the hardware and gives it to each of the two operating systems in the following way in a fixed and equitable manner, and this can be summarized as: The number of cores and execution threads assigned to each of the systems. What part of the RAM memory is assigned to one operating system or another. The usage percentage of accessory components, such as the GPU, are assigned to each system. Now, the first of the operating systems is called Game OS that runs all the instances of the game, while it is active, the resources corresponding to the Shared OS are not used, but are on standby. When is the change? When we access the game menu or use Apps such as Netflix, which run on a version of Windows based solely on the Universal Windows Platform, UWP, and therefore cannot load applications under the Win32 API, it is because of That reason we can't load PC games on Xbox. If we think about it, Microsoft could create a fusion between PC and Xbox in the same device, but by replacing the Shared OS part with that of a conventional Windows, the problem is that then the hardware necessary to run both environments would increase considerably. What would your hardware be like? The idea of creating a PC based on Xbox hardware may seem like a good idea at first, however, with it, Microsoft loses the ability to finance the hardware with the proceeds through royalties on games and accessories, as well as in subscriptions like Game Pass. So the base console should sell for $100-$200 higher. https://hardzone.es/noticias/equipos/xbox-como-pc-posibilidad/

Oil prices fell this Wednesday after opening without a clear direction, in a market fearful of the potential consequences of a higher-than-expected increase in interest rates in the United States. Fears of a deepening of the monetary adjustment by the Federal Reserve left in the background the drop in commercial crude oil reserves that took place last week in the United States. A barrel of North Sea Brent for May delivery fell 63 cents, or 0.8%, to $82.66 in London. Meanwhile, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) for April delivery fell 92 cents, or 1.2%, to $76.66. The president of the US Federal Reserve (Fed, central bank), Jerome Powell, reiterated this Wednesday before the House of Representatives his statements made on Tuesday before the Senate: to fight persistent inflation, rates will surely increase more and remain high for longer than expected so far. Powell only qualified his message on Wednesday by noting that "no decision has been made" yet. The prospect of higher rates than anticipated affects the Petroleum. "It makes the dollar rise" and makes the barrel more expensive, "rekindles fears of a recession (occurring) and consequently (there being) a lower demand for energy," summarizes Andy Lipow, of Lipow Oil Associates. Rate increases make credit more expensive and thus weigh down consumption and investment, and demand in general. The commercial reserves data had no impact on the market, despite an unexpected drop in these inventories. Commercial crude oil reserves in the United States fell last week after ten consecutive increases, according to figures from the US Energy Information Agency (EIA). https://www.portafolio.co/economia/finanzas/precio-del-petroleo-este-8-de-marzo-de-2023-579603

At least 58 people have died and more than 8,000 have been affected due to the current rainy season on the north and northeast coast of Peru. The Civil Defense reported on Friday that it also reports 420 homes destroyed and 2,509 uninhabitable since the rains began in December. The floods, accompanied by strong winds that affect part of Peru, started this week and grew in the last 48 hours, affecting urban and rural areas of the coastal departments of La Libertad, Lambayeque, Piura and Tumbes, on the border with Ecuador. The level of seasonal rains shot up due to the presence of Yaku, an "unorganized cyclone" off the Peruvian coast, in the waters of the Pacific Ocean. Abraham Rodríguez, director of the Civil Defense in the department of Tumbes, expressed: "Right now, we are declared in a state of emergency due to imminent danger of rivers, not due to impact, the impact is coming, according to what it says in Senamhi ( National Service of Meteorology and Hydrology of Peru), that it is going to rain all this week, and the Civil Defense offices of all the districts and provinces are working, delivering humanitarian aid to the entire po[CENSORED]tion. Yaku's displacement caused the Peruvian Meteorological Service (Senahmi) to activate an alert for heavy rains in Lima, where rainfall is rare. The presence of this type of cyclone is associated with the El Niño climatic phenomenon, which causes overheating of the waters in the South American Pacific, mainly hitting the coasts of Peru and Ecuador with rains and floods. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/america/fuertes-lluvias-e-inundaciones-dejan-hasta-el-momento-58-muertos-en-peru/

We continue to offer you information that Bloomberg has echoed after reading internal documents from the United States Department of Defense. Northrop Grumman, like Lockheed Martin, could also receive a large sum, but under a different program. this is what we know The Pentagon will request 145,000 million dollars for the development of new technologies, in addition to the 170,000 million that will be allocated to the purchase of weapons in fiscal year 2024. Northrop Grumman will be the largest beneficiary of the funds. In the event of a positive result, the American manufacturer will receive 9,000 million dollars to develop three key projects. Most of it will go to the development of the LGM-35A Sentinel intercontinental ballistic missile: 3.7 billion dollars. The cost of the entire program will be approximately $100 billion. Northrop Grumman has recently performed engine tests for Sentinel. Flight tests of the propulsion system are now underway. The Sentinel will replace the Minuteman III and will be in service until 2075. The second program is the development of the new generation B-21 Raider nuclear bomber. It was presented in December 2022 and will make its maiden flight later this year. In total, the US Air Force wants to have 100 sixth-generation aircraft, as they are called, in service. The Service recently released new images of the Raider, which revealed an interesting feature of the strategic bomber. The company could get another $3 billion for development of the plane in fiscal year 2024. https://gagadget.com/es/224132-northrop-grumman-podria-recibir-9000-millones-de-dolares-para-desarrollar-el-bombardero-nuclear-b-21-raider-el-caza-de-se/

Gmail is one of the most widely used email platforms in the world, both among private users and large companies. Although Google puts a large number of tools at our disposal to make the task of checking the inbox as comfortable as possible, when the number of emails is high, we want to clean up, answer more quickly, or perform any other repetitive action. the best we can do is adopt keyboard shortcuts. Thanks to keyboard shortcuts, we can perform repetitive tasks in much less time than if we chose to use the mouse to always make the same movement. If you want to get the most out of Gmail and waste much less time organizing emails, then we show you how to achieve it with the most productive keyboard shortcuts. But, first of all, we must activate the keyboard shortcuts since, by default, they are deactivated. To activate Gmail's support for keyboard shortcuts, we must access the See all settings menu through the gear wheel, and access the Advanced tab to activate the Custom key combinations box. https://www.softzone.es/noticias/general/atajos-teclado-dominar-gmail/

There is no doubt that when we talk about playing multimedia files on PC, VLC player is the most used by all… it is light, fast, has great compatibility and, above all, it is free. However, VLC is not exempt from problems, and if you notice that when playing any video it seems slow (with lag, stuttering, tearing or even skipping frames), we'll tell you what you should do to fix it. Of course, and before getting into the matter, you must make sure that the video format is compatible with VLC... this player is compatible with practically any format, but it doesn't hurt to make sure first. All that aside, don't worry if your processor is low-power or relatively old, because it should be able to play your videos smoothly in VLC, even if it's at 4K resolution. Solution if the video works slow in VLC First of all, you should keep in mind that by default VLC uses hardware acceleration to speed up video playback, which means that it makes use of your graphics card. If your PC has weak integrated graphics, this may be causing slow video in VLC, so try turning it off (you can always re-enable it later if you see that this wasn't the problem). ). https://hardzone.es/noticias/equipos/vlc-video-lento-lag/

The first report on the informal labor market for 2023 showed positive figures, since the indicator showed an improvement, and for the mobile quarter between November 2022 and January 2023, the proportion of informal workers in the country was 57.9%, which It meant a decrease of 0.6 percentage points compared to the same quarter of the previous year (58.4%). This was announced by Dane, which also reported that in said period in the country there were 22.14 million workers, of which 9.33 million were formal workers, while there were 12.81 million people employed as informal . On the other hand, for the 13 cities and metropolitan areas, this proportion was 42.3%, which represented a decrease of 1.3 percentage points with respect to the moving quarter November 2021 - January 2022 (43.7%). These zones include Bogotá, Medellín and its metropolitan area (AM), Cali AM, Barranquilla AM, Bucaramanga AM, Manizales AM, Pereira AM, Cúcuta AM, Pasto, Ibagué, Montería, Cartagena and Villavicencio. In these cities there are 10.45 million workers, of which 6.03 million are formal and 4.42 million informal. (Also read: Economic census will be key in measuring the po[CENSORED]r economy.) Likewise, for the total of the 23 cities and metropolitan areas, the informality rate stood at 44%, which meant a decrease of 1.3 percentage points compared to the same period of the previous year (45.3%). For the analysis period, of the 23 cities and metropolitan areas, those with the highest proportion of informality were: Valledupar (68.3%), Riohacha (67.8%) and Sincelejo (65.9%); while the cities with the lowest proportion of informality were: Bogotá (32.5%), Manizales and its metropolitan area (35.3%) and Tunja (39.4%). Meanwhile, in the po[CENSORED]ted centers and dispersed rural geographic domain, which refers to municipalities in rural areas, the indicator was 85.1%, representing an increase of 0.9 percentage points compared to the November 2021-January 2022 mobile quarter.

On March 3, four people from the United States were kidnapped, which triggered a search by the Mexican authorities. A week later, the Police found two dead Americans. While from Mexico City it is said that the abduction was a "confusion", US legislators agree that it is about terrorism and even valued the proposal of military intervention. The Mexican authorities reported that they captured another five people involved in the kidnapping and murder of United States citizens that occurred on March 3. According to the Tamaulipas Prosecutor's Office, the state where the kidnapping took place, the people are all men who supposedly belong to the Gulf Cartel. These arrests are added to that of another subject who had already been arrested on March 7, the day the Police managed to find the whereabouts of the four US citizens. On that date, the authorities found two dead men, another wounded by a firearm, and an unharmed woman who matched the description of the hostages. "The injunction executed this day against the five defendants was requested and obtained, as there was evidence of their probable participation in the events recorded on March 3 in the downtown area of Matamoros," the Tamaulipas Prosecutor's Office said in a statement. The sixth alleged implicated, a 24-year-old young man who was watching the place where the victims were found, was linked to the process for the crime of aggravated kidnapping and entered preventive detention. The Prosecutor's Office has not detailed whether these five detainees are the same ones who appeared last Wednesday morning handcuffed in front of their facilities. On Thursday, local media released a pamphlet in which the Gulf Cartel apologized for the events and claimed that the attackers acted without authorization from their superiors, which is why they handed them over. They were allegedly handed over by members of the Gulf Cartel, the criminal group that operates in the area, accompanied by a note apologizing for the events. An image of that manuscript along with five men with their hands tied, hooded and lying on the asphalt also circulated on social networks without the authorities confirming its authenticity. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/america/mexico-captura-responsables-de-secuestrar-y-asesinar-a-ciudadanos-estadounidenses/

The wormhole is a feature of spacetime that represents a tunnel in space at each moment of time. It is compatible with Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, but its existence is no more than a hypothesis that no one has been able to prove. The concept of a wormhole was first introduced by the American physicist John Archibald Wheeler. Chinese scientists seem to have come up with a way to find wormholes. They believe that wormholes can be detected by circumstantial evidence, just like black holes. The latter completely absorb all light, so they cannot be seen. However, scientists are sure that black holes exist and are even able to study them. Simulations by Chinese scientists have shown that wormholes can have enormous mass to refract light from objects behind them. In simple words, wormholes magnify and distort distant stars behind them. This is what black holes and galaxy clusters can do. Scientists believe that the object behind the wormhole will appear in three magnified copies, one of which will be brighter than the others. In the case of black holes, the effect is different. A black hole produces not three, but four copies, but all of them are about the same level of brightness. Despite this, the work of Chinese scientists can hardly be called a revolutionary discovery. Even if the simulations were really correct, finding a black hole would be as easy as hearing a man whispering at a rock concert. So says Andreas Karch, a physicist at the University of Texas at Austin. So there is still room for improvement. https://gagadget.com/es/223933-los-fisicos-han-descubierto-como-buscar-agujeros-de-gusano-para-viajar-en-el-tiempo-y-entre-universos/

There are certain components that are part of our laptop, which are extremely useful. Some of them are included by default in the equipment itself, and others we connect additionally later. In these lines we want to focus on something as important as the keyboard. Unlike conventional desktop computers, certain hardware elements are already part of a laptop by default. In this specific case we refer to components such as the touchpad, the keyboard or the screen. It is true that we have the possibility of replacing these with others, we connect via USB, HDMI or Bluetooth in an additional way. For example, if we want to use a larger screen, we always have the possibility of connecting another one and using it with the laptop. The same happens with the mouse, in the event that the touchpad does not finish convincing us. But in these lines we want to focus on the other mentioned hardware component, the keyboard. And it can happen that at certain times we need to deactivate the keyboard that is part of our laptop. One of the most common reasons for this is that, for example, it has been damaged. Replacing this component with another is not as easy as it happens, for example, in desktop computers, since here we need to be a bit of a handyman. However, as we have told you before, we always have the possibility of connecting an additional one and working with it from that moment on. At this point it may be the case that we also need to deactivate the original keyboard of the laptop. If the laptop keyboard is damaged, this is how you disable it For example, this can be very useful in the event that we are going to place the new keyboard on top of the original keyboard. Or simply deactivate it so that it stops bothering us if a good part of its keys no longer work well. Whatever situation we find ourselves in, let's see how to disable the operation of this important component on a laptop. This is something that we can carry out through the useful Device Manager that Microsoft's operating system presents to us. To access this versatile Windows component, all you have to do is click on the Start Menu button with the right mouse button and select the corresponding option. At that time the Task Manager will appear on the screen. https://www.softzone.es/noticias/windows/adios-teclado-desactiva-portatil-conecta-externo/

If you buy a computer, whether desktop or laptop, you will require that it have a solid state drive as its main storage unit. Backblaze is a server data storage company that also uses these components. They have published the failure data of the SSDs they use and it is very interesting. You should bear in mind that the data shown is of quite intensive use, more than typical domestic use. For an average user it is estimated that the amount of reading and writing on an SSD is 30-60 GB/day. This figure encompasses everything from browsing to gaming, which are not very demanding processes in this regard. Busting the myth of SSD failures First of all, we must specify the use that Blackblaze makes of SSDs. These are mainly used for reading and writing processes of registry files, operating system installation and temporary files. Note that the log files are the processes that wear out these storage units the most. We have to indicate that the company has been using SSD since 2018, with some registered units from that time. The vast majority of these drives are SATA, what's more, there are only three M.2 drives (the WD Blue SA510). Note that over 65% of the drives are 250 GB or less, over 34% have a capacity of 500 GB and only have three 2 TB drives. Another fact that we must take into account that most of these SSDs are commercial units, come on, you can buy them on Amazon. The only pro drives are the Dell BOSS VS. It also stands out that 58% of these are Seagate BarraCuda 120 drives of different capacities. Blackblaze highlights that, in 2020, less than 1% of the total units presented some type of failure. Specifically, only 25 drives out of more than 2,900 SSDs have failed. We see that, in general, the units they use are commercial and do not present faults. There is a particularly interesting piece of information that the company has given. The units they use operate in a medium temperature range between 34.4ºC and 35.4ºC. It should be noted that most operate between 25 ºC and 42 ºC, maximum. Very specific peaks of up to 61 ºC have also been detected in some units. https://hardzone.es/noticias/componentes/tasa-fallo-ssd-empresa-blackblaze/

The National Institute for Food and Drug Surveillance (Invima) warned in previous days about the absence of 50 medicines to treat some diseases such as: hypertension, diabetes and cancer, as well as some analgesics and anticoagulants, which are part of the diseases that Colombians tend to suffer the most, according to figures from Dane. Additionally, the Colombian Association of Comprehensive Medicine Companies (Acemi) indicated that there are "novelties in the supply of 1,242 active ingredients", a situation that has been occurring since mid-2022 and that "does not improve", according to the complaint. l Dane reported that, by 2022, among the top ten causes of death in men and women in Colombia are: ischemic heart diseases, infectious diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, respiratory tract diseases, hypertensive diseases, one of which drug shortages reported; of the digestive system, diabetes, another of those mentioned; and different types of cancer, in which there is also a shortage of medicines. Some consulted chain pharmacies, such as Cruz Verde, Cafam and Farmacenter have noticed this shortage, especially in those that treat diabetes. But, they add that "it is a phenomenon that has been presenting for a long time." (Do not stop reading: Three parties propose a new health reform with changes in the EPS). On the other hand, Camilo Ramírez, a patient with several medical complications that he prefers not to mention, mentions that "it is the first time in the time he has been on treatment that his complete formula is not available." Faced with this panorama, one of the doubts is who does this shortage depend on? From Acemi they add that it is due to "a chain of many actors", in which it is from the dollar, going through "pharmaceuticals, Invima, distributors, EPS, the Ministry, among others. (Do not stop reading: Conservative bench in the Senate and House will not support health reform). For this reason, the association requests "that the Ministry of Health and Social Protection and Invima adopt more determined and forceful measures that allow this situation to be resolved." And, from the Ministry of Health they mention that it is due to the "increase in the demand for medicines, restrictions by brands or manufacturers in the contracting between EPS and managers." As well as "loss of interest on the part of the industry in marketing some products with low profitability and scarcity of some commercial brands, but availability on the market of drugs with the same composition." (Read: Upme assigned a connection to 187 electrical works for 7.5 gigawatts). Until now, apart from what was mentioned by the entity in charge of the Health portfolio, they have initiated a process in the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce to solve the situation. https://www.portafolio.co/economia/gobierno/escasez-de-medicamentos-de-quien-depende-la-falta-579514

Allegations that it was Ukraine that blew up the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, which connected Russia with Germany across the Baltic Sea, continue to mount. Now it is the New York Times who affirms it, citing sources of American espionage. According to the information in that newspaper, it was a "pro-Ukrainian group" who carried out the action, and it does not seem that the government of Volodimir Zelenski knew about it. Sources with knowledge of the situation, however, have explained to EL MUNDO that it was directly the Ukrainian Armed Forces, taking advantage of the training in underwater fighting that the United States has been subjecting them to for years. Political risk consultant Ian Bremmer has stated on his GZero website that Poland helped Ukraine. Others claim that the support came from one of the Baltic countries. The blowing up of the Nord Stream is of enormous value to Ukraine because it only leaves one operational gas pipeline between Russia and Europe. And that gas pipeline passes through their territory. Kiev has not shut down Russian gas deliveries to Hungary but, without Nord Stream, Ukraine holds the key to gas that travels overland - cheaper and with a more reliable supply - from Russia to Europe. And he will keep it even if the war ends today. In accordance with this thesis, the Joe Biden government sees these Ukrainian actions as an argument for not delivering all the weapons it demands. That includes GMLRS missiles of more than 90 kilometers and western fighter-bombers. The US has seen how Ukraine has modified its surface-to-surface missiles to give them a range of up to 300 kilometers, with which it can strike deep into Russian territory. kyiv has also upgraded Soviet-era drones to successfully strike Russian strategic bomber bases more than 200 kilometers from the border. The Russian government has placed anti-aircraft systems in Moscow and last week the St. Petersburg airport was closed for several hours due to a foiled Ukrainian drone attack. Also a few days ago the Belarusian opposition attacked a Russian A-50 radar plane in the capital of that country, Minsk, as President Lukashenko acknowledged today. Fifty people have been detained in connection with the attack. Russia only has nine operational A-50s, and the cost of each is about 315 million euros. The Belarusian opposition is supported by Ukraine, and the A-50 was flying support missions for Russian forces that invaded that country a year ago. Other spectacular operations carried out by the Ukrainians have been the attack with naval drones on the Russian Black Sea Fleet at its base in Sevastopol, in Crimea, the murder of the daughter of Russian ultranationalist ideologue Alessander Dugin, in Moscow, and the arson at dozens of military bases, ammunition depots and recruitment centers in Russia. The US believes that some of those actions have been carried out by the Ukrainians; others, by Ukrainian agents with the collaboration of Russian citizens; and, finally, a significant portion by Russians who are not enthusiastic about being sent to a war that is butchery, with pay that, while high by Russian standards, is often late. https://www.elmundo.es/internacional/2023/03/07/64077ba7e4d4d82a378b4578.html

The fifth-generation American Lockheed AC-130J Ghostrider flew to South Korea for the first time in its still-short history. There he participated in a training exercise. this is what we know The aircraft was transported to the Republic of Korea by Lockheed Martin, part number 5852 of the 4th Special Operations Squadron, 1st Special Operations Aviation Wing, based in Florida. The exercise began last month and will conclude in March. The video shows some of the capabilities of the AC-130J Ghostrider. The images show the firing of GBU-39 aerial bombs, AGM-114 Hellfire missiles and AGM-76 Falcon anti-radar missiles. In addition, the aircraft is equipped with a howitzer and a gun of 105 mm and 30 mm caliber, respectively. At the end of the video it is shown how they are fired. The AC-130J Ghostrider is a ground support flying battery developed by Lockheed Martin. It is based on the MC-130J military transport aircraft. The United States adopted the Ghostrider in 2017 and will have 27 flying batteries by the end of 2024. https://gagadget.com/es/222676-eeuu-envia-por-primera-vez-a-la-republica-de-corea-la-ultima-bateria-de-apoyo-volante-lockheed-ac-130j-ghostrider-con-mis/

Initially, the cost of the monthly subscription of most video streaming platforms is affordable for a large part of the po[CENSORED]tion. However, on many occasions there are several services of this type to which we are subscribed at the same time, so that amount of euros increases considerably. In these times, there are many who currently have several active subscriptions to video streaming services. To all this, we can add that, for example, it is also that in subscribers to the Spotify music service, among others. All this at a global level begins to become a significant amount of money that we must pay monthly. Hence, most users begin to compare the prices of each alternative in detail to choose some and discard others. A clear example of all this can be found on Netflix, one of the oldest and most beloved alternatives, but it is not going through its best moment. The reason for all this is the problems that occurred with the restrictions on sharing accounts and that their prices have only gone up. To this we can add that over time other streaming platforms have appeared, sometimes even better, and cheaper. This is precisely why a growing number of users are unsubscribing from Netflix to opt for other more affordable proposals. https://www.softzone.es/noticias/general/tires-dinero-netflix-servicios-streaming-baratos/

With increasing regulations in terms of environmental impact, energy use and climate change, it would not be surprising if Intel and AMD have their green PC concept ready for the future and no, we are not talking about very low-cost laptops. consumption. If not to a tower concept, even to play, it could become an alternative for many. Climate change has undoubtedly become one of the motivations for politicians to regulate and intervene in a large number of industries. Where we are seeing it the most is in cars, but consumer electronics, which is where computer hardware is located, are not turning a blind eye either. At the moment they have not entered the world of computers, but the saying of the beards and the neighbor is already known. The fact is that we have seen a series of trends that indicate that we could have important changes that could mean the advent of the "Ecological PC", which would be nothing more than the revision of the classic towers, but designed to meet the new requirements. of sustainability. Why do we think the ecological PC is coming? There are a series of movements that make us suppose that there is a trend towards the creation of an ecological PC model that could become a standard for the next few years. Although we already told you about Intel's proposal in this sense a few days ago, what we are referring to in this case is a more general movement in which the companies led today by Pat Gelsinger and Lisa Su would be finalizing a standard that would define a new tower PC and would completely obsolete the concept of Mini-ITX that VIA proposed several years ago, all for the fact of facing the growing demands and regulations in ecological matters and that could completely change the sector . The first of the elements that make us assume about it is the fact that Meteor Lake, the next Intel architecture, has been designed to work on laptops and does not have a desktop version. Actually, if we take into account that it is a chip divided into several that were going to be used in several different designs, it is clear that the objective is to flee once and for all from the three-digit TDP, while it is expected that the increase in per-architecture performance enables you to achieve the power of a current desktop i7 or i9 for half the TDP. The second, on the other hand, is the existence of the AMD Ryzen 7045, which is still a desktop Ryzen 7000, but adapted to work in the ecosystem of a high-end laptop. So we have a clear trend for CPUs across both major brands. It would not be surprising if both have agreed on that aspect. https://hardzone.es/noticias/equipos/pc-ecologico-intel-amd/

he National Institute of Migration (INM) of Mexico rescued 343 migrants who were in the box of an abandoned trailer in the eastern state of Veracruz, of which 103 are unaccompanied minors and come from Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Ecuador. In coordination with the Criminal Investigation Agency (AIC) of the Attorney General's Office (FGR), the INM found the migrants last Sunday night on the Cosamaloapan-La Tinaja highway, the institution reported Monday in a statement. The trailer was located without a driver, but the presence of people was detected inside the box, which had a double floor made of metal structures, as well as fans anchored in the lower part and vents on the ceiling," explained the INM. In addition, the migrants wore colored bracelets as a means of identification. Of the 343 migrants, 212 are of legal age, 103 are unaccompanied minors and 28 belong to various family nuclei. The minors come mostly from Guatemala; adults from Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Ecuador, and family nuclei from Guatemala and El Salvador. Both the unaccompanied minors and their families remained under the guardianship of the System for the Integral Development of the Family (SDIF), while the adults initiated an administrative procedure to define their legal situation in Mexico. Last week, the INM also reported, 79 migrants were located in the border city of Tijuana, in the northern state of Baja California, crowded into several hotel rooms. Phenomena like the one that happened last night in Veracruz happen in Mexico with some frequency. At the beginning of the year, 269 people were found crammed inside a trailer in the southern state of Chiapas. And, regarding the situation of minors, last February Mexico deported almost a hundred young Guatemalans found in different parts of the country. Mexico is experiencing a record migratory flow, with 2.76 million undocumented immigrants detained at the US-Mexico border in fiscal year 2022 and, according to data provided by the International Organization for Migration (IOM), the migratory flow increased 8% in Mexican territory. The United States, which is usually the final destination for migrants crossing Mexico, announced a new policy earlier this year in which it promised to welcome 30,000 migrants a month from Nicaragua, Cuba, Venezuela or Haiti, but with the warning who will deport to Mexico the rest who arrive by land. https://www.elespectador.com/mundo/america/mas-de-400-migrantes-fueron-encontrados-entre-bahamas-y-mexico-noticias-hoy/
