  1. Welcome ? (Ojala te remuevan, hazme mi ticket)
  2. Few know it, but there was a time in the development stage when the new Volkswagen Polo and Virtus were going to be called Gol and Voyage. The original idea of Project MQB-A0 was that these hatchbacks and sedans from Segment B (boy) be replaced, not coexist. However, there came a time in the cost analysis process in which VW had to make a difficult decision: the new Polo and Virtus would be more expensive to produce than imagined and their selling price would be uncompetitive. In a nutshell: it would have been impossible to achieve values similar to those of veterans and amortized Gol and Voyage. There the decision was made to stretch the life of the two older models and position the newcomers a little higher in price. The Gol and Voyage, presented in 2008, thus gained a couple of years of unexpected life, although they will not be eternal. Volkswagen developed the MQB-A00 Platform (cheaper and simpler than the MQB-A0 of the Polo, which in turn is simpler than the MQB-A of Golf) and the final successor is expected to be presented in 2020 or 2021 (read plus). To endure so far, VW made a final update on the Gol and Voyage. Last July, the MSi Tiptronic Gol that you are seeing here was released. It is the usual Goal, but with the mechanics of the Polo, Virtus and T-Cross: 1.6 16v (110 hp and 155 Nm), with six-speed automatic transmission (Tiptronic, with torque converter). This version is offered only with Comfortline equipment level and one step is positioned above the other Gol, which continue to offer the old and well-known 1.6 8v (101 hp and 154 Nm). The Tiptronic box, in turn, evicted the unhappy and automated I-Motion from the Gol and Voyage range. We handle one week this unique version of 944,891 pesos. The full review is reproduced below. OUT Almost ten years ago, I joined a coffee in San Isidro with the designer Rosario Juan Manuel Díaz. Manu was already a consecrated designer in Alfa Romeo, he had put his signature on Mito and was passing through Buenos Aires, on his usual vacations that have Rosario as the base of operations. We had already talked about classic, modern, European and Chinese cars. Then it occurred to me to ask him the following. -Let's talk about the cars you are seeing in Argentina. Which ones do you prefer? -The Volkswagen Gol Trend caught my attention. It is a very harmonious car. They say it was designed in Brazil, but it has lines that make me think rather than they did in Germany. Likewise, I am not informed on the subject. It is a personal intuition. It was only a year since this third generation of the Goal had been launched for sale and, although it did not have a spectacular or revolutionary design, Díaz was right: it was harmonic. All a virtue, in a market where old cars reigned, with several layers of restyling on top: Peugeot 207 Compact, Renault Clio Mio, Fiat Palio Fire and Ford Fiesta One. Of course, today this Goal suffers the same condemnation: it is already difficult to remember how many evolutions it received in these ten years (four, according to the Autoblog file) and it can no longer even be said that it is harmonious: the grill and the headlights of the latter Update seem to have been designed for another car. They do not fit. From some angles, they even seem out of squad. This MSi Tiptronic version is offered only with the Comfortline equipment level. It comes standard with halogen headlights with daytime running, front fog lights and 15-inch alloy wheels (with Goodyear Efficient Grip 195 / 55R15 tires). It is the most expensive Goal that is sold at the time and all its competitors from a decade ago already retired. There are no more Compact, Mio, Fire or One. For price, two of its most direct rivals are the Toyota Etios Hatchback (with automatic transmission, from 878 thousand pesos) and the Ford Ka Hatchback (with automatic transmission, from 963 thousand pesos) ). Why don't we mention other models in this segment? Because only the Etios and Ka come with serial stability control. And Autoblog only recommends buying cars with ESP. INSIDE The big news is the lever of the automatic transmission Tiptronic. Although it does not even have cams on the steering wheel, as it does with the Polo, Virtus and T-Cross. Everything else was already known, including the 6.5-inch touch screen (with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto), which comes from the times of the "calls to the epilator." Despite VW's efforts to make up and apply some new technologies, the interior of the Gol aged almost at the same pace as the exterior. The rear seats are not among the most generous, the backrest is only full and there is no button to open the trunk from the outside. It opens only from the remote control of the key ring (you will have to turn off the engine and remove the key from the drum, if the vehicle is running). The trunk has 285 liters of capacity and, under the cargo floor, there is bad news: smaller, temporary help wheel. When in use, it cannot be circulated at more than 80 km / h. The driving position is the best of the cabin. The steering wheel adjusts height and depth. And the armchair is comfortable, in addition to having height adjustment. However, it does not approach the excellent ergonomics of the new Polo, Virtus and T-Cross. We highlight it every time we test a car with that MQB-A0 Platform: they are very well thought out from the point of view of the occupants. The quality of the Gol's materials is still low-cost: all hard plastics, with different textures, although the inserts are good and seem designed to withstand several years. That is a historical bastion of the Golcitos: cheap, but enduring. SECURITY This is the worst aspect of the "new" Goal MSi Tiptronic. It is unacceptable that, in 2019, a car is launched for sale that offers as a single safety equipment the double front airbag and ABS brakes. It does not even have three-point seat belts for all occupants: the rear center must conform only to a two-point ventral belt. There is no stability or traction control or option to add more airbags. And we say that it is unacceptable because, with the same mechanics and platform, VW came to offer the versions of the Fox, Suran and Saveiro with stability and traction control. The last time a Gol Trend was subjected to an independent crash test was in 2010. It was done by LatinNCAP, with the protocol of that time. A version with two airbags then received a three-star rating for adults and two stars for child protection. This year, LatinNCAP crashed as a farewell to the discontinued VW Suran. It would be interesting to see the same informative effort on this veteran Gol, which is still for sale. MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION Here lies the main novelty of this model. The well-known MSi 1.6 16v engine has already been applied in models as varied as Fox, Suran, Saveiro, Golf, Polo, Virtus and T-Cross. This is the first time it has been offered in the Goal. It delivers 110 horsepower at 4,500 rpm and 155 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. It has timing belt distribution. It is combined only with automatic Tiptronic gearbox (torque converter), with six gears and sequential mode. Unlike other models with this mechanic, in the Goal there are no change cams on the steering wheel. The traction is forward. BEHAVIOR The last time we tested a Goal in Autoblog was in May 2014 and it had the 1.6 8v engine (101 hp and 143 Nm), which still offer the entry-level versions. And how did the benefits change with respect to the "new" MSi? The acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h improved by just one tenth. It dropped from 10.9 to 10.8 seconds. And the maximum speed increased from 171 to 180 km / h. However, the average consumption also increased: it went from 7.2 to 8.4 liters per 100 kilometers. The most curious thing, however, is the improvement in performance of this Goal with respect to the MSi Tiptronic Pole, which threw the following numbers: 12.2 seconds, 180 km / h and 8.5 liters per 100. Why are these differences, if they use the same mechanics? It's simple: the goal weighs 140 kilos less than the pole. They are almost two passengers of “ballast” less. But let's not forget that a good part of that “ballast” that the Polo carries comes in the form of more structural reinforcements, better soundproofing, more airbags and a greater number of safety devices. Beyond that, it must be remembered that this MSi engine must be carried very high in turns to get a good response. That is why consumption is higher than in 1.6 8v. This impeller is interesting only after 3,000 rpm and many times the computer system stretches the changes to beyond 6,300 (full red zone), to deliver the thrust that is demanded from the accelerator depressed thoroughly. The engine noise becomes deafening and unpleasant. In a more relaxed handling, however, it can be crossed at 120 km / h in sixth and at 2,500 rpm.
  3. The Plaza España metro station looked like yesterday the shooting set of a science fiction movie. Among the wagons, dozens of young people walked dressed up as fantastic creatures like monsters, robots or warriors with weapons. Some returned to their homes with the hangover on Halloween night but, the vast majority, headed to the otaku party of the 25th anniversary of Manga Barcelona. The walls of the Fira Barcelona pavilions welcomed the thousands of people who went to the second date of the Japanese comic room, on a day marked by the showy and quirky cosplays of the attendees, the Korean music dance battles and by hundreds of visitors with hats from the po[CENSORED]r Pikachu. In the main access of the festival, the organizers placed huge blackboards so that everyone could express what they wanted. Some drew true works of art that looked like the pages of a comic strip. Others took the opportunity to photograph themselves with young people who were dressed as the anime One Piece. Those who are disguised come to the room to soak up, more so if possible from the manga culture, but also to be admired. Manga Barcelona is visited by people of all ages. Even parents who accompany their children like Mauricio Gaviño, who says that "he has already caught his taste" over the years. At lunchtime people approached the main stage of the room. First, there was a K-pop music dance battle between professional choreographers and several amateur groups. A hundred people surrounded the stage that became a party with the song Silver Spoon, by the South Korean band BTS. "Well friends geeks, the time has come for another contest," said one of the presenters. Three couples paraded with cosplays from the Pokémon video game saga. One of the winners was Laura Fernández, 34, who made a representation of a dialogue between the character Misty and her Psyduck with a friend of his. "We work in a workshop with foam rubber for a week," he said. MORE INFORMATION The super speed Astro Boy stops in Barcelona 25 years of manga in Barcelona, big time The second day also featured the presence of the mascot of the Tokyo 2020 Games, futuristic in appearance and, of course, anime superhero; with a special session with the Asian film director Hideo Nakata, creator of the movie The Ring, and with a European cosplay parade, among many other acts. Thousands of young Catalans did not attend classes for the All Saints holiday, and took advantage of the day to visit the festival. Although others came from further away, such as Iria Lage, 26, who traveled from Madrid to dress up, with a friend, the manga Uta no Prince-sama. "It's a unique opportunity to live with people who perform cosplay." The festival rewarded on Thursday night the best manga and anime works published in the last year. Among the winners, the Promised Neverland, in shojo (adolescent female audience), highlights the play Yona, Princess of Dawn, as well as the anime series A Silent Voice by Naoko Yamada and the movie Alita : Angel of combat, by Robert Rodriguez. The hall will be open until tomorrow with more activities and exhibitions around the celebrations of its 25th edition that brings the highlights of Japanese culture to the Catalan capital.
  4. A report by the State Department on terrorist groups indicates that the majority of organizations operating in the Middle East have lost strength and their threat is minor. Martyrs Brigade Aka al-Aqsa. It was designated on March 27, 2002 and is composed of Fatah-affiliated activist cells that emerged at the beginning of the al-Aqsa Intifada in September 2000. It strives to establish a Palestinian state loyal to Fatah. In 2002, the group attacked Israeli civilians within Israel. In January 2002, the responsibility of the first suicide attack committed by a woman in Israel was attributed. In 2010 and 2011, the group launched numerous rocket attacks against Israeli communities. According to the report, in 2015, al-Aqsa declared an open war against Israel and requested funds from Iran to help him in his fight against Israel in a televised broadcast. In it, a fighter showed a new two-mile tunnel that crosses the border under Gaza and Israel, which the leader claimed would be used in the next battle rounds. Most of the Brigade's operational activity is in Gaza, but it has also planned and executed attacks within Israel and the West Bank. According to the report, Iran has provided the Brigade with funds and guidance, mainly through Hezbollah facilitators. Islam army Appointed on May 19, 2011, the Army of Islam, founded in late 2005, is an extremist Gaza-based organization responsible for numerous terrorist acts against the Israeli and Egyptian government. He is responsible for several rocket attacks against Israel and the kidnappings of civilians in 2006 and 2007, including an American journalist. He also carried out the attacks in early 2009 against Egyptian civilians in Cairo and Heliopolis, Egypt, and planned the attack on January 1, 2011 against a Christian church in Alexandria that killed 25 and wounded 100. In September 2015, it was reported that the Army of Islam issued a statement promising loyalty to ISIS. The group released a video in October 2017 in an effort to encourage ISIS fighters defending Mosul. The organization, estimated at hundreds of people, operates in Egypt, Gaza and Israel. He receives much of his funding from a variety of criminal activities in Gaza. Hamas Hamas troops in Gaza. (Reuters) Hamas troops in Gaza. (Reuters) Also known as the Islamic Resistance Movement, it was designated as a terrorist group on October 8, 1997. Hamas was born in 1987 at the beginning of the first Palestinian uprising, or Intifada, as a result of the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. The armed element, the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, has carried out anti-Israeli attacks, including suicide attacks against civilian targets within Israel. After winning the elections of the Palestinian Legislative Council in January 2006, Hamas gained control of some ministries of the Palestinian Authority (PA) in Gaza, including the Ministry of Interior. In 2007, Hamas expelled the Palestinian and Fatah Authority from Gaza in a violent takeover. He remained the de facto ruler in Gaza in 2018. Since 2007, Hamas and Fatah have made several attempts at reconciliation, although all attempts until the end of 2018 have failed. Hamas is made up of several thousand members based in Gaza. It has a presence in the West Bank and in the Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon. According to the report, Hamas has received financing, weapons and training from Iran and raises funds in Gulf countries. He also receives donations from Palestinian expatriates, as well as from his own charities. Boko Haram Boko Haram Boko Haram Also known as the Nigerian Taliban, it was designated on November 14, 2013. The group is responsible for numerous attacks in northern and northeastern Nigeria and in the Lake Chad basin in Cameroon, Chad and Niger that have killed thousands of people since 2009 In March 2015, he promised loyalty to the Islamic State group in an audio message. ISIS accepted the group's proposal, and began to be called ISIS-West Africa. Since 2009, Boko Haram has killed about 20,000 people and displaced more than two million. In 2014, he killed about 5,000 Nigerian civilians. The kidnapping of 276 students from a secondary school in Chibok, Borno state, attracted worldwide attention to the organization's activities and highlighted its deliberate goal of non-combatants, including children. Between January 3 and 7, 2015, he carried out a massacre in Baga, Borno state, where between 150 and more than 2,000 dead, injured or missing were reported. The attacks of January 2015 and other operations in the smaller surrounding villages in 2015 displaced some 35,000 people and allowed Boko Haram to gain control of the state of Borno. It operates in northeastern Nigeria, northern Cameroon, southeastern Niger and the Chad areas along the border with Nigeria. Boko Haram is largely financed through criminal activities such as looting, extortion, kidnapping and bank robberies. Hezbollah A Kurdish fighter with the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces fires at a drone operated by ISIS near Baghouz, Syria. (Ivor Prickett / The New York Times) A Kurdish fighter with the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces fires at a drone operated by ISIS near Baghouz, Syria. (Ivor Prickett / The New York Times) He was appointed on October 8, 1997. Formed in 1982 after the Israeli invasion of Lebanon, the radical Shiite group based in Lebanon takes its ideological inspiration from the Iranian revolution and the teachings of the late Ayatollah Khomeini. The group generally follows the religious guidance of the Iranian supreme leader. He is closely allied with Iran and the two often work together on shared initiatives, although Hezbollah also acts independently in some cases. It shares a close relationship with the Syrian regime of Bashar Assad and, like Iran, provides assistance, including combatants, to the forces of the Syrian regime. According to the report, Hezbollah is responsible for multiple terrorist attacks.
  5. With 31 years, Lima Jhosef Arias has managed to gain a foothold within a new generation of Peruvian chefs and chefs. Through its three restaurants: Piscomar (traditional and marine cuisine), Callao24 (Creole cuisine) and Capón (Chifa and Nikkei cuisine), Arias intends to take its guests through a culinary trip to Peru without leaving Madrid. Who taught you to cook? ADVERTISING inRead invented by Teads My mother. She is an empirical cook and thanks to her I have lived in a kitchen. She made a living selling street food. Where I study? In INTECI, a cooking school in the Olivos neighborhood, the neighborhood where I lived in Lima. What is your favorite dish? I love chicken (Peruvian) marinade, with an ocopa that is a huacatay cream from the Peruvian highlands. What is the “generation with cause”? It is a movement of Peruvian chefs who are now around thirty and that would come to make the third generation after Gastón Acurio, Virgilio, or Misha (Mitsuharu Tsumura), among other chefs. Why do you think Peruvian cuisine has been so successful in recent years? Because it is mestizo. In his food you find influences from almost all parts of the world: Spanish, Mediterranean, Japanese, Chinese, African, Italian and of course the pre-Hispanic. Peru has managed to absorb all these influences and merge it in a way that can only be presented as Peruvian. What is the story behind Callao 24 and his mother? There is a story of thanks to my mother who taught me and gave me everything. The name Callao comes because it is a Creole and rogue cuisine, as is the port of Callao in Peru. And 24, because my mother's birthday is August 24. What will the diner find in Capón? A Peruvian has the habit of eating chifa (Peruvian-Chinese food) once a week. With Capón we wanted to rescue that custom, but not only to rescue Chinese food, but also Japanese food. Here the specialty is sauteed and makis acebichados. What is the dish that customers most ask for in Capón? The Makis and the Airport, very typical also in Peru. Take chicken, shrimp and veal wrapped in noodles and rice, mixed with a tamarind sauce. It also has yellow pepper and rocoto. What do we need to know about pisco? That there are eight varieties of pisco within any brand. And that there are actually eight varieties or types of grapes, divided into two large groups: aromatic (albilla, italia, muscat and torontel) and non-aromatic (mollar, black Creole, quebranta and uvina). What is the ideal measure for a good pisco sour? Two, one, one. Two measures of pisco, one of rubber syrup, one of egg white and one of lime juice. It is a winning recipe. We have eight varieties of cocktails based on pisco quebranta. But besides pisco sour, I really like the chilcano that is pisco with ginger ale and a touch of lime juice. It is always served very cold. What do you like most about Spanish cuisine? I love everything, really. I love rice, I'm very rice. In Valencia you eat very well. I also like Andalusian food and gazpacho. I have worked in Malaga and I like Espetos. In Madrid, cooked and corns. What would you say is the most innovative thing you have done? This is going to sound paradoxical, but lately our innovation is about respecting the authentic, the classic. Many chefs are constantly looking for new formulas and end up betraying the essence of Peruvian food. But apart, we are working on what is usually called “optimal cuisine”, that is, making the most of the products. We are working with the banana skin, the lime skin, or the shrinkage of the yellow pepper that we are dehydrating. We are making a kind of Peruvian kimchi with various kinds of chili pepper. What chefs do you admire? Gastón Acurio, whom I call dad. He has made Peruvian cuisine known to the world. Something that no president or ambassador has been able to do.
  6. The teacher duo returned to the country. And in times of cracks, they don't generate contradiction. Joan Manuel Serrat and Joaquín Sabina are adored and acclaimed by the Argentine public, who feels they are their own, after accompanying the journey of life with some of their songs. The two music legends chatted alone with Teleshow. And among the complicit winks of almost three decades of friendship they confessed great news: after 20 years as a couple the Andalusian surprised his wife, Jimena Coronado, with a marriage proposal. Kneeling and alliance included, he declared. The poet of small things also comes with great family news, although for now he is prohibited from telling them. Will the family enlarge? Seven years after their last show together in Buenos Aires, Serrat and Sabina will meet again tomorrow at the brand new Movistar Arena to present many of the themes that marked several generations. "Before leaving, I always believe that the public has too many expectations and that I will not be able to meet them," confesses Sabina, stating that her favorite moment in the shows is saying goodbye, when everything went well, because it is a lot more "neurotic and nervous" than his partner. For its part, the creator of "Mediterranean" and "What will become of you" does not choose the beginning or the end: "The pleasure is in the middle of the concert. There is something going on every day, which is different, ”he says. Sabina: "I think his favorite is when I leave him alone on stage and leave (laughs)." —They are a little ours: the Argentine public loves them. Sabina: "Not a little, we're quite ours (laughs)." Serrat: —Before, yours (laughs). —How have you prepared for this new show? Serrat: —We have been preparing for this concert for months. Sabina: —I am running at 5 in the morning; How many kilometers can it be each morning? Serrat: —This concert for us is very special for several reasons. The first is a new space. It will be a space that will be historic in the city and it is very beautiful to be inaugurating it. Afterwards, it is a concert that we have also had to work hard and give many laps, many songs, organize everything again. And there is a third reason: Joaquin is getting very old and I don't know what he could give of himself. And today I announce that I will not abandon it anyway. I don't think that, in any way (laughs). Sebina: "He's very worried because I forget the letters, his name, things like that." Serrat: —Basilio called me the other day (Laughter). I told him: "I'm not black." Basil. —They have been between 25 and 30 years of friendship, they told me. It is a life. Sabina: Yes, out there. But keep in mind that it was not at all an equal thing. That is, I had a poster of this in my room and the poster now sings next to me. It has been very impressive for me. "They have done a great tour together and they know each other very much." Since they know each other so much I want to ask, for example Joan Manuel: if I want to make Joaquín angry, what should I do? Sabina: —It's hard. Serrat: —Be patient. At some point you may find some slit where you can enter, right? I could give some directions, but it wouldn't do him any good. Surely he would overcome these indications and he would not find the way to get angry. —And if Joan Manuel is already angry with me and I need him to forgive me, how can I do Joaquin? Sabina: "Call me to mediate (laughs)." No, he will never be angry with you: he has always forgiven beautiful girls. - Speaking of friendship and beautiful women like their partners, if they find out that the other is going to have dinner with his wife, are they calm or distrustful? Serrat: "No, I'm sure my wife is going to try to get him to eat something." Sabina: —If your wife is not there, I will be worried (laughs). - One of your letters Joaquin, says: "For saying what I think without thinking what I say more than one kiss they gave me and more than one slap." Do you remember the most shocking slap you have received? Sabina: —All slapping has been bad because the women of my life, of course, were not slapping. The slapping was given to me by the very Christian Salesian parents who educated me on the basis of slapping. —Joan Manuel, have you received any slap? Serrat: "Yes, but because I've been slow, I haven't left on time." Sabina: "He hasn't pulled his fists (laughs)." Serrat: No, I usually have a very high turning speed and I can go out at 34 km / h without giving the other a chance. I mean, understand me: I am a perfect escapist, that's why they have a hard time hitting me. I'm going to tell you one thing: my mother was able to hit me because I was betraying him, while she was sewing on the machine, right? Pajamas, shirts, all these things. He called me, pretended the voice: "Juanito". And then I approached stupidly and when I was at a distance ... Sabina: "Shoe or hand?" Serrat: —With the hand. Shoe? It was a lady. He turned quickly and caught me there. Normally when I was preceded by a scream I was already far away. Play Sabina and Serrat reflect on the electoral result in Argentina and the crisis in Chile - In some talk we have had Joan Manuel, you said that sadness generated more growth than happiness, and that happiness is dropping moments. What is the last moment in which you felt an important joy? Serrat: "I can't tell you ..." -Why? Serrat: "Because there is a promise of family secrecy." "Any joy of those that children give us?" Serrat: —A very great joy. Sabina: —What would have cost him to say: “When Sabina said yes to this tour” ?! -Absolutely. Above mentioned one that can not count, it really cost nothing. Sabina: "Sure." Serrat: "No, you told me if I had felt one and I answered yes." It was recently, two days ago. —It's beautiful news; congratulations on that. Serrat: "Thank you very much." Of Joaquin, yes, I will tell it too, it was a few days ago. When he asked Jimena to marry. He knelt and gave her a ring, as they do ... Sabina: "You shouldn't tell that." Serrat: "Ah! It was so beautiful." "Are they serious?" Sabina: Yes, yes. I am 70 years old, the day Jime turned 50 I folded my cervix and in verse… Serrat: "He came to kneel." Sabina: "And in verse ... well, he knows." Serrat: "I didn't learn the verse because I was crying and I couldn't." Sabina: —He sees a pedrush and knows immediately what it had cost me (laughs). Accomplices and friends: Joaquín Sabina and Joan Manuel Serrat, an exquisite pair

  9. Many times you will have thought that it is a good idea to have a RAID system of hard drives on your PC, but that doing so involves too much work or complication and in the end it is forgotten. Well, it is easier than it seems, and then we will show you how to configure a RAID hard disk drive on GIGABYTE or AORUS motherboards. To begin, we will need, of course, at least two hard drives or SSDs, as this is what we need to create a RAID 0 or RAID 1 volume. We could also create RAID 5 or 10 volumes, which is what the motherboards allow. desktop computers, but in these cases we would need a minimum of 3 and 4 disks respectively. The process is exactly the same, but selecting the type of RAID that suits us and the corresponding disks, so let's explain it with two units nothing more. That said, let's start. Install hard drives or SSD Obviously, the first step is to install hard drives or SSDs in our system. For this tutorial, we are going to think about units with SATA 3 connectivity, since for PCIe devices the process is different. Once the two disks with which we want to do the RAID are installed and connected to the SATA ports of the motherboard, we can go to the next point. Configure the SATA controller We start on the device and press the DELETE key to enter the BIOS during the POST. Once in the BIOS, we must go to the Peripherals section and then to SATA Configuration. Once there, we must ensure that we check the RAID option in SATA Mode Selection. SATA Mode Selection in Gigabyte BIOS Now we simply exit the BIOS saving the changes (Save & Exit). If we want to configure, instead, the UEFI RAID mode (only Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, but it is the most recommended option), we must instead access the BIOS but the BIOS Features section, and then mark the CSM Support option as deactivated RAID on Gigabyte boards disable CSM Now, we save the changes and leave the BIOS, but as soon as we restart the computer we will have to enter the BIOS again by pressing DELETE again during the POST to proceed to the next step. Create a RAID volume on GIGABYTE or AORUS boards Then, we will access Peripherals and the Intel (R) Rapid Storage Technology option. Intel Rapid Storage Technology for RAID on Gigabyte boards Within this menu, we place the cursor over "Create RAID Volume" and press the ENTER key to create it. It will ask us for some information, such as the name of the volume (up to 16 characters), the RAID level (in this case there are only two disks so it offers us Stripe (RAID 0) or Mirror (RAID 1), but if there were more discs we would also offer the other RAID levels). Select the option that interests us and press ENTER. RAID levels on Gigabyte board The next step is to go down with the arrow keys to the "Select Disks" option to select the disks that we want to be part of the RAID volume. Simply position yourself and press the space bar to include them (they will be marked with an X). After this, we will be asked to select the block size, which can range from 4 to 128 KB. Normally, with 16 KB we have plenty. Once we have selected this, you will be asked to select the size, although by default it will already come with the maximum available and we can leave it that way. After that, the "Create Volume" option that was in gray will have already been blank, which means that we can get on top and give INTRO to create the volume. After completing the creation process we will be returned to the previous menu, but now we will show the volume we have created, giving us the option to delete it if we want. RAID volume created on Gigabyte boards Ready, we have already created the RAID volume so we can exit the BIOS and install the operating system. Windows 10 already has the preloaded RAID drivers, so during installation it will already detect the volume we have created as if it were an individual hard drive, but we will know that, at the BIOS level, what we have is a disk RAID.
  10. The Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles and PSA groups confirmed having very advanced negotiations to merge and create a new company, with shares divided equally. After a brief statement released yesterday, they gave details of the agreement that could revolutionize the sector. If the merger takes place, the resulting company will become the fourth largest car manufacturer in the world in terms of annual unit sales, the result of 8.7 million vehicles, according to official estimates. Today, FCA administers Fiat, Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Maserati and Lancia. PSA, meanwhile, does the same with Peugeot, Citroën, DS, Opel and Vauxhall. The latter is currently the second strongest group in Europe. The statement confirms that the merger "would combine the strengths of the respective brands" in each of the segments in which they participate: from luxury cars to utility vehicles, through SUVs, passenger vehicles and pick-ups. "The portfolio would cover all market segments with emblematic brands and strong products based on streamlined platforms and investment optimization," they say from both companies. While the details were agreed "unanimously", both Councils are waiting for a binding Memorandum of Understanding that, they estimate, will be achieved in the coming weeks. Only there will the merger be fully confirmed, although it seems difficult to reverse. FCA and PSA estimate that 80 percent of the synergies will be achieved after four years of merger, at a cost of 2.8 billion euros. The significant increase in the value resulting from the transaction is of the order of 3.7 billion euros in projected annual synergies. The transfer of shares would be achieved through a merger through a Dutch parent company, with a balanced governance structure between shareholders and a majority of independent directors. The Board of Directors will have five members appointed by FCA and five by PSA, in addition to the executive director Carlos Tavares (PSA). The company resulting from this - almost confirmed - merger will be listed on the Euronext (Paris), the Italian Stock Exchange (Milan) and the New York Stock Exchange, in addition to continuing with "significant presence" in the current headquarters of France , Italy and the United States.
  11. A decade ago, a man was crying inconsolably in front of Las meninas, Velázquez's famous painting. That image marked Antonio Azzato (Caracas, 46 years old), an industrial engineer who had just moved to Madrid. He designed and restored furniture that he later exposed to the doors of his business and the neighbors were photographed with them. What happened to him at the Prado Museum led him to study deeply the work of the Sevillian painter, but he also turned on a light. He began building fiberglass meninas and in 2018 he took them to the streets of the capital. He has done it again this year. How did the idea come about? ADVERTISING The painting is a reinterpretation, it wasn't even called that. It changed its name 200 years ago, when it was renamed Las Meninas, which were the servants of the time. Velázquez claims the profession. I made the sculpture in white, I proposed an exhibition to the City Council and they accepted it. What do they symbolize? They are the icon of Madrid. It is the most important painting in Spain. Velázquez was the Steve Jobs of his time, a genius. He was the creator of the selfi because he generated a fourth dimension. The work is more up to date than ever. What objective do you pursue? The main museums of the cities should be its streets. The first message we find in them is do not speak, do not photograph, do not touch. Art must be lived with the five senses. In the first edition I asked what Madrid was, any conclusions? The common denominator was the love everyone had for the city. They were proud to live here and wanted to give back everything they had done for them. Everything happens in Madrid, so if you stay at home you have the feeling of missing something. How are the scenarios chosen? We try to select points that are pleasant to walk and help to rediscover the city. The main promoter of this initiative is Acotex, the textile merchants association. The idea is to energize the streets because traditional commerce is increasingly affected by large stores and online commerce. And how do you decide the people who reinterpret the figures? It depends on several factors. An open call is launched, emerging artists are chosen and the sponsors select others. I try to make it a plural mix. What do you ask for? They have white letter. They must express a message, but the subject is free. I help them to express their idea by sketching. Is art elitist? The price of museums is high, but there are free days for everyone to reach. There is no excuse for someone to enjoy it. Are there missing urban spaces to develop it? There should be more spaces to express themselves. Graffiti has become a trend. They should not be banned. Places with them could be rehabilitated. What does Velázquez have? Everyone has an idea of who he was, but interest is lost in technology. Last year I saw children asking their parents what these dolls were. Do your creations serve to inspire new artists? That is the idea, that over the years someone tells me that he saw the exhibition and that prompted him to devote himself to art. What character would you like to participate? An elite soccer player. In a country where there is some disunity, art and sport lead to union. What is the most urgent message? The integration. Do not forget what happened in the past. I come from an emigrant family. Today I am in Madrid again, but some people tell me that I am not from here. Putting labels is a mistake. Art allows people to connect. It is a universal language. What do Venezuelans find here? Everything is cyclic in this life. 40 years ago the Spaniards went to Venezuela because things were not right here. Venezuela opened the doors, just as it is happening now with Madrid. In my country things are wrong. Living there has become a heroic act. In this city, do you live or survive? The climate of Venezuela is like that of a continuous spring. Here you have to face the winter. Who leaves his country behind and tries to forge a better life has a lot of value. I decided to come to give my children a better life. What problems did you encounter? All cities have pros and cons. What I love about Madrid is that in a good restaurant a millionaire and a poor person can agree, even if it goes only once every six months. In my country it is unthinkable; the difference between social classes is very pronounced
  12. On October 27, the presidential elections generated a political change. But, in addition to the pulse of the economy, the thread and unity, there is a great social factor in the push for change: feminisms and sexual diversity. And that change, in a literal and singular sense, but also collective, can be named as a revolution of the children, in inclusive language and with all that inclusion means as a living and diverse language. On October 30 - 36 years after the first democratic elections after the military dictatorship - President-elect Alberto Fernández put on his cap: Brian Gallo, the 27-year-old kid who was discriminated against on social media when he showed his image as president of the table, in Moreno, with comments of the style "do not carry things of value" and they branded him as a kid. The comments show the prejudice for his cap, his sports jacket and his age, but, above all, racism for being morocho. If Argentina knows about inclusive language, it is long before using the “e” so that the crack does not cease to be only in the ballots but also in the multiple and democratic genres, identities and desires. Proud to be "black head" or "shirtless" was a way of discouraging the prejudice of those who did not come from the ships but from the slaves brought from Africa and the native peoples. During the management of the macrismo a good part of what will become official again sat down to wait for another opportunity at the polls. Feminisms and sexual diversity no. The streets were taken on June 3, 2015, with the call for Una Una Una, and the first women's strike took place - while we were saying “The CGT drinks tea, women the street” - on October 19, 2016. The women's strike was not symbolic, brought political results and a new agenda in unions, with greater demands for licenses to care for sons and daughters, to be able to perform fertilization treatments and take days to report gender violence. Trade union deputies such as Vanessa Silley, General Secretary of the Federation of Judicial Workers' Unions and Claudia Ormaechea, Gender Secretary of La Bancaria and elected deputy in the Province of Buenos Aires, both by the Front of All, are an example of the results of the alliance between the unionists and feminisms. But, very centrally, feminist demands drove the demands and participation of adolescents and youth. The girls went from the exclusion of places of power to become 15 percent of the driving of the Buenos Aires student centers. And, without a doubt, Ofelia Fernández, the youngest legislator (for the City of Buenos Aires) in the country is a leadership (which draws attention in international newspapers) and was exacerbated in a profile of María Sánchez Díez in The Washington Post, where he resembles the US Democratic legislator for New York, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 30. Alexandria was compared by Donald Trump with Evita. And she responded by claiming the figure of Eva Perón. They also criticize Alexandria and Ophelia for videos or photos of them dancing (as if being legislators would take away the possibility of moving or force them to age in a conservative way as punishment for doing politics) and neither of them stays nor still, nor quiet. Ophelia's first student political decision was to oppose gender violence by professors of her school endorsed by the unions and the university leadership. At age 16 he became President of the Carlos Pellegrini Student Center. He took the demands of Ni One Less and took them further. He denounced the abuse and gender violence of teachers and teachers who had been ranked by the UBA. And he faced university leadership and protected trade unionists, until then, by union impunity to justify machismo. In addition, in the National Congress, he defended the legalization of abortion during the debate on the Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy Act, where he said: “The only thing greater than the love of freedom is the hatred of those who take it away from you” . The revolution of the daughters speaks of a political phenomenon that, in various ways, influenced the electoral results with an emerging case such as Ophelia and with a politicized vote, outside the control of the indoctrination of the great media, with political awareness learned in alternative or self-managed media and with an exercise of mobilization and intellectual curiosity inspired by the Women's Encounters, the fight for legal abortion and Comprehensive Sex Education. The revolution of the daughters refers to the young, but not in a derogatory sense, similar to the soccer idea of "our children", but quite the opposite: being a daughter is not a minimizing or subordinate connotation; but it enhances a political tradition of intergenerational driving.
  13. The prices for two of the new motherboards for the new AMD Threadripper 3000 processors have appeared in a store. These new boards would use the new AMD TRX40 chipset, which the manufacturer has developed for this platform. However, the bad news is that, if the prices shown right now are maintained, they would mean a very large price increase. In some cases, close to 33% compared to the current AMD X399 platform. AMD has managed to maintain the compatibility of sockets on its AM4 platform, between the different generations of Ryzen processors. However, the manufacturer has not been able to prevent the current AMD X570 motherboards from being released at fairly high prices. The company has justified the increase in these prices, based on the fact that the new chipset is larger and offers greater functionality than the previous X370 and X470. Now, it seems that history is going to be repeated with its new HEDT processors. Since the next AMD Threadripper 3000 will no longer be compatible with the current motherboards of the TR4 platform. Nor, therefore, with the AMD X399 chipset. That AMD does this, after having repeated until its satiety that its processors would maintain the retro compatibility with the previous motherboard models, we do not believe that users of this platform will like it too much. The filtered prices of ASUS motherboards with TRX40 chipset are excessive Today two motherboard models have appeared for the new AMD TRX40 chipset: the ASUS Prime TRX40-Pro and the ASUS ROG Zenith II Extreme. The first one, the ASUS Prime TRX-40 Pro, is referenced with a retail price of 833.83 Australian dollars. That equals about 514.82 euros at today's exchange rate. The second of them, the ASUS ROG Zenith II Extreme, would have a sale price of 1,343.52 Australian dollars. What would represent about 830 euros to the current change. It is true that AMD's HEDT platform (nor Intel's, for that matter) has been characterized by having prices on its specially contained motherboards. But these prices that have leaked are clearly excessive. More, if we compare them with their equivalent models for the AMD X399 chipset. For example, the current ASUS ROG X399 Zenith Extreme can be found for about 620 euros or less in online stores. Against that, we would be in a 33.8% increase between the two models. Although, one thing can also happen. It is very likely that the online store from which these prices have been filtered is not putting the actual prices. It is more than likely that the store has created these product entries with the intention of positioning itself in Google for the future. Since these types of tickets count enough when it comes to generating traffic and web positioning. Therefore, we do not believe that these prices are really going to be definitive. Although, given what happened with the AMD Ryzen 3000 platform and its motherboards with X570 chipset, it would not be surprising that there are also widespread price increases on the new motherboards.
  14. From Villa La Angostura (Neuquén) - The ski season is over, but in the Argentine Patagonia it does not stop snowing. During the past winter break, Volkswagen Argentina was a sponsor of Cerro Bayo and the brand had organized a test drive for the press with the new T-Cross, which had to be postponed. The problem was not the lack of snow, which this year there was plenty. The inconvenience was, this time, the collapse of a mountain slope, which hindered the transit for several weeks on Route 40. For this reason, the test drive with the T-Cross could only be carried out this week, under a sleet and an icy cold that is reluctant to accept the arrival of spring in Patagonia. The T-Cross MSi Tiptronic is a model already known in our market. VW's first SUV for Segment B (boy) was launched last July and Autoblog tested it for a week (read review). In these first four months 2,824 units were patented. Therefore, VW took advantage of this press test drive to announce its next releases in Argentina. * T-Cross Turbo: "You need a more powerful engine", we said in Autoblog at the time of testing it and at that time we anticipate what is now officially confirmed. In 2020 the T-Cross TSi will reach our market. It will have the well-known 1.4 turbonaftero engine of several VW models (150 hp and 250 Nm). It will be combined only with automatic torque converter box (Tiptronic, six-speed). This version is manufactured in Brazil from the moment of its launch, but only next year will it arrive in Argentina. Of course: the current T-Cross MSi today has prices between 1.14 and 1.77 million pesos. Get ready for the T-Cross TSi to be clearly more expensive. * VW Amarok V6 258 hp: Product of national manufacture. At the beginning of 2020, the expected enhanced version of the Amarok V6 manufactured in Pacheco will be released. The performance will increase from 224 to 256 hp (272 for a few seconds, with Overboost) and from 550 to 580 Nm. This improvement will be applied to all Amarok V6 that leave the Tigre game plant from next year. Autoblog already handled it during this summer on the Coast (read contact). * VW Tarek Project: Another nationally manufactured product. At the end of 2020 the production of the first VW SUV produced in Pacheco will begin. It will be positioned in Segment C (compact), halfway between the offer of the current T-Cross and Tiguan AllSpace. In more days, VW will show the authorities and guests the progress in the expansion works of its factory in Argentina and will tell all the details of the so-called Tarek Project, but these data can already be read here. * VW Touareg III: It will be the last launch of VW before the end of 2019. The third generation of the SUV for Segment E (large) was completely renovated and will arrive in Argentina only with V6 turbodiesel engine. It is already in presale. The equipment, the technical sheet, the price and the contact that Autoblog already made in Germany can be read here. * Polo GTS and Virtus GTS: The sports versions of Polo and Virtus will be launched in Brazil at the beginning of 2020 and shortly after they will arrive in Argentina. They will have the well-known 1.4 turbonaftero (150 hp and 250 Nm), with automatic torque converter box (Tiptronic, six-speed). In addition, they will be differentiated by tires, brakes, exhausts and an aerodynamic kit (see photos). Of course: the current Polo MSi and Virtus MSi today have prices between 900 thousand and 1.26 million pesos. Prepare to make GTS clearly more expensive. * Golf VIII: The eighth generation of the classic hatchback for Segment C (compact) has just been presented in Europe (see photos). VW has already confirmed that it will arrive in Argentina. Its local launch will be at the end of 2020 or beginning of 2021. In addition to all the novelties in design, dimensions, mechanics and equipment reported in this note, an important change for Argentina will be the new origin of the model. It will no longer be imported from Mexico or Brazil (it paid 0% customs duty), but from Germany (it will pay 35%). * VW New Urban Coupé: At the end of 2020, VW will present a new product manufactured in Brazil. It will be a crossover with “adventurous” aesthetics based on the Polo, which promises to have a more accessible price positioning than the T-Cross. It will have a fastback body (VW already speaks of “four-door coupé”) and a greater clearance of the ground than the Polo. The first sketches were already published here.
  15. Our expert has chosen the Ecovacs Winbot X as the best glass cleaner robot of the three analyzed. The ease of use, the security measures it incorporates and its great autonomy make it superior to the rest. In addition to cleaning the floors, robots can become perfect allies for other household tasks. For example, lend a hand when leaving home windows (and other glass surfaces) without a trace of dirt. These glass cleaner robots are the protagonists of our comparison, in which we have selected three models from different manufacturers for sale on Amazon. What models have we chosen? The reality is that there are still not many manufacturers who are betting on these types of devices. Therefore, we have chosen to choose three teams of similar characteristics on paper that promise to clean (almost) without assistance. This is the Ecovacs Winbot X (with an average score of 8.75 points), the Hobot 288 (7.75) and the Novohogar W-Clean900 (8). During the tests, and taking into account the type of product in question, we have taken into account different variables common to all of them: - Design: It does not matter much if they are beautiful or not, but the quality of the construction, its appearance of resistance to shocks or its dimensions. - Cleaning: They usually have different cleaning modes, mops and recommendations for use. In this section, the finishing of the windows after their use has been assessed. - Security: It is very important to keep in mind that, although their operation is autonomous and they have different safety measures to avoid accidents, it is always convenient to use them while it is present. Starting from this idea, each device uses additional security measures to forget about unforeseen events as much as possible. - Ease of use: Whether controlling them from the device or from a remote control or a mobile app, we seek that anyone, even if not accustomed to this type of robots, can use them without complications or help. So we have tried them All the robots participating in this comparison have faced, in the first place, a window with a high level of dirt: dust, fingerprints, watermarks ... After checking their performance in an extreme scenario like this, they have been used to clean all the glass doors and windows of the home after 15 days without touching them; a way to see the finish in an environment of use of maintenance of cleaning that also helps to test the autonomy in the case of models with internal battery. After two months analyzing the performance of the products, the winning glass cleaner robot has turned out to be the Ecovacs Winbot X. With the intermediate price in the comparison, it is easy to use, leaves a good finish on the crystals and transmits a lot of confidence thanks to its Different security systems. This robot places special emphasis on safety so that there is no fall. For this, the main unit has a strong absorption system that fixes it to the glass that it is cleaning and is also accompanied by a suction cup - that works with batteries - that is connected in two ways: through an anchor cable and wirelessly with a 2.4 GHz connection. If it is not properly positioned, it does not allow the system to start. It does not hinder or limit the movements of the robot even if it is placed on the glass that is being cleaned, since it has an adjustable cable that adapts in real time to its needs. The mop is fixed with velcro to the robot and, to clean with guarantees, it has to be sprayed with a soapy solution (the package includes its own). Once the cleaning is finished, it can be washed in the washing machine. Its operation is extremely simple and is managed from the robot itself - it has a button on its remote that acts as on / off and activates the automatic cleaning function - or through a remote control. Although in most cases the automatic mode is sufficient, this complement allows you to choose, in addition, a thorough cleaning mode that covers the surface of the window twice, once with vertical movements and once with horizontal. Although the results are not perfect, the work with very dirty crystals is surprising, since it removes dust and stains very successfully.
  16. Lautaro, an 11-year-old student of Zárate School No. 35, died last Friday night, hours after taking part in a fight during school hours in which he would have received a blow. His mother, Leonela, said that on that day he withdrew the child from classes without any problem and returned together to his house in the Barrio Bosch in collective. Once at home, his son told him that his chest ached, he felt dizzy and his nose had bled. However, as the discomfort was temporary, he asked for permission to go play at a friend's house. "If I feel bad I warn you," he said. Hours later, Lautaro decompensated. He was urgently transferred to San José de Campana Hospital with nose and mouth hemorrhages, where he was treated by a pediatrician who performed a series of studies and plaques that revealed no inconvenience. At the time of admission he suffered a cardiac arrest and died. This Monday, through comments from other partners of the child, Leonela knew that on Friday Lautaro had participated in a fight inside the classroom with other classmates and that he would have received a blow to the chest that had caused a nosebleed. “I was not aware of this, the lady did not tell me, she did not call me. I do not know how it went but I will not blame anyone, here the responsibility lies with the teacher and the managers. Schools are their second home, we need to be told. A coup is not normal, ”said Leonela, who went to school with other parents to meet with the authorities of the educational establishment. “If I had known that my son was beaten, everything would have been different. I couldn't even tell the doctor. ” The cause was in the hands of the UFI N ° 2 of Campana and it is expected that in the next two weeks the results of the autopsy will be known, to know the real causes of Lautaro's death. "We received a verbal complaint from the family that there had been an incident at the school that had caused the death of the student," said Roxana Borro, Regional Primary Education Inspector in dialogue with TN. "We started an investigation and the teacher was removed from the position to perform the relevant actions." "With the family we agreed to wait for the autopsy results and then continue the investigations," said the inspector and confirmed that the provincial Ministry of Justice has already intervened in the case and investigates why the school did not report what happened.
