  1. The first data on AMD's upcoming gaming graphics cards have been released. Thanks to the latest LLVM patch for Linux we know the codename of two of AMD's upcoming GPUs. Specifically, the patch defines certain aspects of the GFX1200 and GFX1201 that would refer to the silicon for the new AMD Radeon RX 8000 Series graphics. Rumors around the NVIDIA RTX 40 SUPER have been growing in recent weeks. Everything indicates that they could be presented during the CES in Las Vegas, which is scheduled for the second week of January 2024. While by the end of next year NVIDIA could launch the RTX 50 Series. There are several unknowns with the new AMD graphics, since there are different rumors about them. The most notable is that they could use a chiplet design, just like the design of the Ryzen processors, although of course, that is not confirmed. AMD would be preparing the ground for the RX 8000 Series As is normal, before launching a new component, it must be "seeded" so that it performs well when it is launched. We know that AMD is a big fan of open source and that it takes great care of its relationship with the Linux community. Hence many "leaks" of their graphics cards are due to the patches for these distributions. The title of the latest LLVM notes makes it very clear. Indicates that the new objectives are defined for the GFX1200 and GFX1201. It is also indicated in the title that it is for AMD GPUs. Since GFX12 references have never appeared before, it is logical to think that they refer to the new RDNA4 GPUs. We must highlight that GFX11 referred to RDNA3. Note that RDNA4 would not be released in the next few weeks or months, it would be released at the end of 2024. It will hit the market at a time close to the next NVIDIA RTX 50 Series, if all goes well. The name GFX1200 has already been associated with the Navi 41 silicon in the past. Some rumors have suggested that AMD has canceled the high-end Navi 4x that would have a chiplet design. The company would once again target the generalist and high-end gaming segment. You should know that, traditionally, AMD has considered a high-end product to be any graphics card that exceeds 600 euros. For these products it uses its best silicon, adjusting the number of cores available, obviously. https://hardzone.es/noticias/tarjetas-graficas/filtados-linux-amd-rx-8000-series/
  2. The mayor of Peñalolén, Carolina Leitao (DC), assumed the spokesperson for the “Against” command ahead of the December 17 plebiscite of the constitutional proposal, where one of the points that is most questioned is the non-payment of contributions for the main home. She even pointed out that there would also be annoyance among her colleagues from Chile Vamos, but “the poor right-wing mayors have to stay silent because they can't say it.” “What we are doing is highlighting the weaknesses of this bad text,” said the also president of the Chilean Association of Municipalities (AChM), in a new chapter of Al Pan Pan with Mirna Schindler. In the midst of cross accusations, Leitao pointed directly to the campaign of her opponents, ensuring that they are the ones who are not telling the truth, especially on the issue of contributions. “We realized that those who lie or deliver false messages are the A Favor campaign,” said Leitao, warning that “the text is poorly written and therefore lends itself to interpretations that ultimately what they do is put the weakness on the text itself.” In his opinion, “if we are going to go to the Constitutional Court to discuss certain things later or if we are going to need 10 lawyers to interpret something, the truth is that it is a bad text.” In this sense, the mayor of Peñalolén stated that the proposal has “things that hurt.” “You can't tell me that eliminating the payment of contributions is not going to mean reducing income for the poorest communities in our country,” he declared, questioning the articles approved by the Republican Party, which he described as an “absolutely populist” measure. and that in practice, if it were to be exercised, it would have great harmful effects for the communes of our country.” Leitao maintained that municipalities are financed mainly through land tax, circulation permits and commercial licenses, with the land tax being the main source of income, contributing 58% of the resources to the municipal common fund. The elimination of this income, without an adequate replacement, he mentioned, could generate greater territorial distortion and inequality. “The For campaign is putting a sweetener on something, on a project, to seek adherence to a text that does not have it, with a rule that is not going to be met. That is lying to the citizens, or if it is fulfilled, people will end up, the same ones who pay contributions today, will end up paying another tax to be able to replace that income. So who is lying to the people? I think this is with pear and apple,” said the DC community leader. https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/11/23/leitao-y-contribuciones-en-texto-constitucional-el-a-favor-le-pone-un-dulce-para-buscar-adhesion/
  3. Splashes on the surface indicate the commotion occurring below. Beneath the waves, a tornado of hundreds of devil rays swirls in a dizzying dance that lasts for hours. This is a "courtship vortex": a previously undescribed behavior among Munk's devil mantas (Mobula munkiana) that has now been recorded in a study by the non-profit conservation organization Manta Trust. New drone footage shows 122 individuals participating in this five-hour display in Baja California, Mexico, with different mating groups entering and leaving the main formation over time. "It's amazing to see a vortex of Mobulas," says Marta D. Palacios, co-founder of Mobula Conservation, whose study examines the courtship and mating behaviors of three mobula species: the spiny ray, the bentfin ray, and the munk devil ray. Mobulas were known to form vortices when feeding or resting, but this is the first time vortices have been observed in a mating context. The circling movement was more relaxed: the rays touched each other and did not deploy their cephalic fins (the horn-shaped appendages in front of their faces) to eat. The researchers also saw courtship trains (when male mobula rays chase a female to try to mate with her) moving in and out of the larger vortex. This behavior provides the rays with a faster way to select a mate, explains Palacios. "If you're in a courtship train, you have to chase the same female for hours or even days," but in the vortex males can choose their best mate from 30 or 40 females. "We know very little about mobula rays," says Stephanie Venables, a scientist at the Marine Megafauna Foundation, who was not involved in the study: "Reproductive behavior is one of the most important aspects of their life history to understand, so that these findings will be really important for protection." horseback riding The study also describes another new behavior, called "horse jumping," in which the male leading the chase in a courtship train jumps on top of the female, raises his tail and begins to rapidly push his clipper or reproductive organ. This happened to one female more than 135 times. "Imagine you're swimming on the surface and someone jumps on you from behind over and over again," Palacios says. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales/2023/11/rayas-diablo-ritual-apareamiento-salvaje-larguisimo
  4. So you can see how slow the car development processes are, since Henrik Fisker presented the first model of his new Fisker brand, the Ocean, and this first contact that we made in the city of Los Angeles with that same car But since production, almost four years have passed. It's true, in the middle we had that black hole in our lives called Covid-19, and that surely delayed the plans of the famous former designer of Aston Martin and BMW, and also creator of the Fisker Karma (you can read the story here). But time is time, and the Ocean went on sale a few months ago in the United States and Europe, seeking to be a coherent but disruptive alternative in the electric car market. Why do we stop in a car that is difficult to even get close to Chile? Well, because it is currently the car with the longest approved autonomy anywhere in the world, with 707 kilometers in the WLTP cycle. More than Tesla, more than BYD, more than the Germans, the Koreans or any Chinese electric car. And that deserves a test. Fisker Ocean: features The Ocean is a 100% electric crossover designed by the genius of Henrik Fisker, and is manufactured in Austria at the Magna Steyr centers. Which, although it guarantees construction quality, has generated many logistical problems, to the point that The 42 thousand units estimated for 2024 (first full year of production), has been lowered to between 13,000 and 17,000 units. A bad forecast for a brand that intends to impact the sector with extremely attractive prices, with a starting ticket of 34 thousand euros in Europe and US$37,500 in the United States, and that escalates to 62 thousand euros or 69 thousand dollars for the variant Extreme, which is the one that promises 707 km of autonomy. They are lower prices than any non-Chinese brand. The Fisker Ocean is an electric SUV/Crossover that measures 4,775 mm long, 1,995 mm wide and has 2,921 mm between axles. It is similar to a Tesla Model Y and larger than Volvo XC40, Nissan Leaf, Hyundai Kona, Kia Niro, Geely Geometry C, MG Marvel R, to name some of those sold in Chile. Fisker's touch is in the aesthetic details, which make this model dazzle above so many others. It is a kind of raised hatchback with smooth surfaces, two-tone bodywork with a darkened sunroof, huge 22-inch wheels (Bridgestone 255/45 tires for all versions), rear side marker lights that function as markers, or rear headlights that They are just a few lines. The attractiveness is indisputable at first glance. I also love the so-called "California Mode," which with the push of a button lowers all the windows, including the decorative ones between the C and D pillars, and opens the roof and rear window, leaving the Ocean bare. https://noticias.autocosmos.cl/2023/11/23/fisker-ocean-una-de-las-tantas-revoluciones-electricas
  5. Argentina's 1-0 victory over Brazil at the Maracaná Stadium on matchday six of the South American Qualifiers grew in relevance due to everything that happened before and after the match. Lionel Scaloni's public announcement that raised questions about his continuity was joined by an emotional letter from Ángel Di María reconfirming that against Verdeamarela he last wore the albiceleste shirt in the qualifying process for the 2026 World Cup in Mexico, Canada and the United States. . El Fideo used his social networks to thank the fans, confirm that he will say goodbye permanently to the National Team in the Copa América and review the acts of violence in Rio de Janeiro. “Well, the last qualifying match for me has arrived. I cannot express in words how much the people's applause fills my soul in recent times, I enjoy every second of that affection and that of my colleagues, them, my friends, without them this story would not have the same meaning. The love of each one of them made me who I am today too,” the Benfica winger began. And he continued about the repression that the fans suffered behind one of the goals of the field: “Unfortunately we cannot let the events that arose in the stadium go, no one deserves that mistreatment, nor the beatings, frightened families and children in the middle of a stadium where the only thing that should have happened is to watch and enjoy a match within what is football folklore. I hope this kind of thing doesn't happen again. We as players are always going to defend our people without a doubt.” To close, he recalled that he will conclude his time in the national team in the continental tournament that will be played in mid-2024. “The Copa América will be the last time I wear the Argentine shirt, with all the pain in my soul and feeling a knot in my heart.” throat I say goodbye to the most beautiful thing that happened to me in my career, dressing it, sweating it and FEELING it with all the pride. Thank you fans, thank you family, thank you friends and teammates, we continue making history and that will remain for all eternity. Let's [CENSORED] go Argentina!”, concluded the historic player. His current teammates in the National Team and others who had time in the Albiceleste quickly commented on the publication. “Thank you for absolutely everything, my friend, I love you,” Leandro Paredes reacted in addition to uploading a photo to the story of him joking that they are going to try to convince Fideo to continue. He was joined at the wheel by some members of the Scaloneta such as Marcos Acuña, Nahuel Molina and Paulo Dybala: “You are enormous Fide.” https://www.infobae.com/deportes/2023/11/23/emotivo-mensaje-de-angel-di-maria-tras-su-ultimo-partido-con-argentina-por-eliminatorias-me-despido-con-todo-el-dolor-del-alma/
  6. The National Customs Service issued a statement to clarify the situation that the Chilean Customs Chamber reported last night, in which it urged the Government to remedy the failure that different Customs platforms were presenting and that has not yet been stabilized. In its complaint, the agency indicated that foreign trade was stopped and that it would have a direct impact on the national economy. “We have practically stopped Foreign Trade and with permanent delays in approvals or acceptances, which has a severe impact on our economy. Our country lives and depends on commercial exchanges,” said the Chilean Customs Chamber. Likewise, they specified that there are "millions of dollars that are committed for imports and exports that generate commercial exchange." Also, they expressed their concern because the cherry export season will begin in days, and "there are already ships that have advanced their shipments and we do not have the basic support tool to ensure the departure of these loads." “The government and the ministries that are directly related to this service must allocate greater resources to integrate technological and security support that allows us to maintain the continuity of our operations. Our reputation is at stake here, as are the investments of companies from all segments, entrepreneurs who have invested their capital in a venture and in carrying out their projects,” concluded the Customs Chamber of Chile. Customs Response In a public statement, the National Customs Service indicated that since last Sunday, November 19, “intermittencies have been experienced in operations related to import and export, due to a computer problem linked to a failure in one of the hard drives. that supports our production platforms. Likewise, they reported that a contingency plan was activated so that activities related to foreign trade are not affected. “The National Customs Service rules out that Foreign Trade operations are paralyzed, despite the intermittencies of our production platform,” the establishment added. On the other hand, they clarified that they have held meetings with the Customs Chamber and ANAGENA to report “the scope of the problem and the alternatives and channels for the continuity of electronic procedures. The Contingency Plan has allowed all operations to be processed, despite the interruptions in the system.” In addition, the organization reported that “the tender for the migration of our production platform has already been awarded, which will begin its implementation in the coming months. Likewise, we can report that the Service's 2024 budget considers the resources necessary to implement improvements in this area." https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/11/23/aduana-descarta-paralizacion-de-comercio-exterior-ante-falla-en-plataforma-cibernetica/

  10. There are games that are designed from a single objective and around that idea they create their own universe that then, later when it hits the stores, has the challenge of convincing the players. And in the case of this Lethal Company we are going to have to choose whether we want to die of fear accompanied or not, because that will be one of the main attractions of this PC title. Lethal Company is one of those rare birds that has managed to sneak into the ranking of the most played titles on Steam, so it has enormous merit that it can rub shoulders with the great totems of the Valve store: they are almost always the same and they rarely leave loopholes through which outsiders who seek a more specific audience who love more transgressive developments can sneak in. A game of work quotas Basically, in Lethal Company we play the role of a worker who has been hired by the Company and whose main objective is to collect all the scrap metal that is lying on the surface of a series of moons in the solar system. So we have to work hard to cover the fee they ask of us and, with that money, lead a life of luxury traveling the galaxy, decorating our ship or exploring other unknown areas that increase in difficulty. But the important thing is also to improve your equipment, your weapons and collection tools, in addition to adding technologies that protect us from the attack of the beasts that live on the moons and planets that we are going to visit. Beasts that can be added to a bestiary while we enjoy nature and try to meet the quota that the Company asks of us. A job that you can never skip. With these premises, a game is presented that went on sale at the end of last October and that, in just a few weeks, has managed to place itself in seventh place among the most played titles, surpassing Baldur's Gate 3 itself, which it occupies – at this time – eighth position. A sudden success Lethal Company also hides a lot of terror although they dress everything in a certain kindness due to the amount of things we can do. The essential thing is to travel, work and earn money to improve equipment and enjoy life in space, but more important is what we experience at each level. Because this multiplayer cooperative hides many secrets that players have been discovering for a few weeks now. If you want to try it, remember that you have this Lethal Company in early access phase and it will cost you only 9.75 euros, so it won't ask too much of you to try it. Especially if we take into account that right now it has collected almost 23,000 "extremely positive" opinions, which gives an idea of how much it is being liked. Of course, if you want to enjoy it, right now it doesn't have Spanish subtitles, so if you don't speak English you may have a hard time understanding everything the protagonists are narrating. Try it. It will not disappoint you. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/lethal-company-juego-exito-steam/
  11. The SSD market is in a difficult moment, their prices have been falling for years and demand is not as interesting as manufacturers would like, however, there is no clear reason for this, although we could deduce it thanks to the data that we will see today. . A sales report tells us which brands sell the most and what percentage of these have been purchased compared to other years. The data is not very encouraging for this sector, which may lead to a price increase in the coming months. So if you need an SSD, stay tuned and read on. What about SSDs? Well, although there is no 100% correct theory, we can make an estimate of what happens. And, in the 2020 pandemic, these units were highly valued, everyone expanded their computers or basically bought a new one, as well as consoles and other entertainment media that use these units. That brought with it an increase in production, due to demand, which, since that moment, has been falling year after year. The data offered by TrendForce indicates that the sale of this component has fallen by 10% in the last year. This logically leads to their prices, due to demand, also falling, as we have been able to observe. And, if prices are so low and people don't buy more, what is the reason? Well, basically what we can intuit is that we all already have a good space on our computers. Not acquired a long time ago and which we do not need to renew. Production has been much greater than demand, and that is why the drop in prices and sales has also been large. This, together with the end of the pandemic and the start of some war, reasons that also mean that we use our equipment less, and, therefore, we renew it more frequently. What will happen now? Well, something that we have been announcing for weeks, the prices of these SSDs could increase significantly again, since the manufacturing rate will be reduced, and, consequently, their supply as well. Key moment if you need to purchase one, before the year ends, taking advantage of these promotional periods. The company that will notice this stage the most will be Kingston, which occupies the first place in market share (28%), very far from the second brand, which would be ADATA (9%), to continue with Lexar (8%), Kimtigo (8%), Netac (6%), etc. In summary, SSDs are a component that we all use, but that is not constantly renewed, especially if we have large capacity units, which is why sales would have stagnated and its price would have hit rock bottom, so, during In 2024, lower production and an increase in production are expected, since, as a general rule, people who purchase it next year do so because they will need it, not because of supply, and, therefore, they will pay the market price of the product. moment, even if it is higher. https://hardzone.es/noticias/perifericos/caen-ventas-ssd-ano-precio-aumenta/
  12. The appointment of career diplomat Mario Ignacio Artaza (59), former Consul General in New York, as Chilean ambassador to Indonesia, has received overwhelming applause from both sides of the Pacific. This is because Artaza is recognized as a specialist in Asia and, in particular, in Southeast Asia. “His appointment to the Indonesian embassy is a great decision and good news for Chile, because Artaza is a top-level expert in Asia,” says Pablo Cabrera, who during his mission as Chilean ambassador to China had Artaza as a member of his team. For his part, former senator and former minister Sergio Bitar expresses that “his appointment in Indonesia is a good decision, a new stage in the Government's policy of putting people with high training in international positions, which it should have done. from the beginning. He is one of the people who knows the most about the economic and political development of Asia and now also of the United States, two poles of world politics. His contribution is relevant and I trust that he will be a very good ambassador, in the country with the largest Muslim po[CENSORED]tion in the world and a member of the G20.” Career diplomat Alfonso Silva, now retired, former Chilean ambassador to the United States (until 2022) and former Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs, highlights that “in addition to his experience (in previous assignments) in China, in Singapore, in Asia in general, where he was in the APEC Secretariat, he spent a sabbatical period in the private sector. Something that is extraordinarily useful for a diplomat, for a public official, something that the foreign ministries of Canada, for example, and the United States have. That adds a lot to the diplomatic function and, therefore, I am sure that his appointment in Indonesia is very correct. I believe that it will contribute enormously to the relationship between Chile and Asia, and the Asia Pacific, particularly with ASEAN, in addition to the bilateral relationship. Consequently, I have a lot of faith and a lot of hope that his development and performance will be very outstanding, as it has been in other activities that he has had in the past.” In addition to his recognized professional abilities, his collaborators highlight his tireless activity and concern for almost everything that surrounds him. “To say that he is restless does not do justice to his tireless work… He is interested in knowing about everything and everyone,” adds a source. “He is very dynamic, a very good reporter, which gives him unique and very useful characteristics for diplomatic work… he has exceptional soft skills and relationships,” adds former ambassador Pablo Cabrera. Another source complements the above, pointing out that “his day starts at 4:30 in the morning. At 6 am. He has already read the world press, in total about 14 news sites from all over the world. He leaves for Chile, continues with Argentina, the United States, Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Australia. And as he reads, he shares and distributes – to friends on different continents – news and ideas, so that they have them on their radar.” https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/sin-editar/2023/11/22/diplomatico-con-amplia-experiencia-asume-embajada-en-indonesia-y-secretaria-general-de-la-asean/
  13. While patrolling the beach on the remote coast of Katmai, in Alaska (United States), the white wolf approached the mouth of a stream, where fresh water flows into the salty Hallo Bay. After a minute, the predator suddenly launched itself into the water and grabbed the tail of a harbor seal with its powerful jaws, a large marine mammal that can weigh more than twice as much as an adult wolf. With a powerful tug, the wolf dragged the seal onto a sandbar, and for the next half hour the seal snapped uselessly at its captor while the wolf continued to tear at its tail. Once the seal was dead, the wolf trotted away, only to return with a packmate. Together they devoured their prey. This scene, filmed by a group of biologists in Katmai National Park and Reserve in 2016, is the first time a wolf has been documented hunting and killing a marine mammal. Then, in 2021, they witnessed the first sea otter hunt: a lactating female and two males from the pack dispatched an adult sea otter resting on a rocky outcrop. The results, published in October in the journal Ecology, are significant because they move away from what wolves are famous for. Hunting hoofed animals like deer and elk, exhausting their prey with relentless resistance and pack cooperation tactics. . This Katmai study is part of a growing body of research suggesting that wolves are more flexible than previously thought, preying on everything from beavers to salmon. "The most important thing is to think that wolves are not strictly terrestrial predators, but that they can influence different ecosystems," says Kelsey Griffin, a biologist with the United States National Park Service and lead author of the article; "They are potentially an important link between terrestrial and marine systems." Ambush and food The Katmai coast, with its glacier-fringed fjords, vast grasslands and wide sandy beaches, is beautiful and incredibly remote. Griffin had to be airlifted with her research team. Although the constant cold and drizzle, as well as numerous storms, can be unwelcoming to humans, Katmai teems with wildlife. The annual Fat Bear Week competition, organized by Katmai National Park, is held each summer in streams teeming with sockeye salmon. And in recent decades, sea otter and harbor seal po[CENSORED]tions have returned by the thousands to their former range. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales/2023/11/descubierto-lobos-cazan-comen-nutrias-marinas-focas
  14. Last weekend in Chile, Honda presented the new CB750 Hornet, the last heir to the original CB600 Hornet from 1998, an urban-style but high-performance naked that has had some changes over the years, in order to adapt to the new needs of the market and its clients. This model was only shown, since its marketing will begin in December, with deliveries for 2024. Honda CB750 Hornet: the engine Powering the Hornet we find a 755 cc twin-cylinder with a Unicam 8v cylinder head, which delivers 91 HP and 75 Nm of torque. With a 15.2 L tank, it achieves a consumption of 23 km/l for a range of more than 340 kilometers. The engine has some electronic tricks, such as the "by wire" throttle, which allows you to enable three pre-programmed driving modes: Sport, Standard and Rain (there is a fourth mode, customizable). Additionally, these modes act on engine power, engine braking and the Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) system with disengageable "wheelie" control. Honda CB750 Hornet: chassis The steel frame has a diamond-type design and is quite light, weighing only 16.6 kilos. Regarding the suspension, it has a Showa 41mm SFF-BP inverted fork supported by upper and lower seatposts specific for the Hornet. According to the brand, this helps improve sports driving performance (especially braking at high speeds). The rear shock acts on a steel swingarm through ProLink, with 5-position preload adjustment with spring constant and damping settings optimized to complement the front fork. The width of the front wheel is 3.5 inches and it is fitted with a 120/70-ZR17 tire; the rear 4.5 inches with 160/60-ZR17 tire. Honda CB750 Hornet: technology The Hornet has a 5-inch, high-visibility, full-color TFT screen that offers four types of monitoring. Control is carried out through this screen or with the switch cluster on the left side of the handlebar. This screen allows the use of the Honda RoadSync system (available for Android and iOS) to control some functions of your phone such as music, maps and calls. The Honda Smartphone Voice Control system can be enabled for Android phones and also allows you to control these elements by voice. Among the safety elements, the Hornet has ESS, which is basically the automatic activation of the "hazard" in sudden braking. https://noticias.autocosmos.cl/2023/11/22/honda-anticipa-la-llegada-de-la-cb750-hornet-a-chile
  15. Fernando Alonso is about to finish his debut season at Aston Martin. The two-time Formula 1 world champion has been able to return to the elite of the king of motorsports in 2023, standing on the podium up to eight times with his new team. Tied on points with the other Spaniard on the grid, Carlos Sainz, the last Grand Prix of the year, in Abu Dhabi, will serve to definitively know how the fourth and fifth places in the drivers' World Championship are distributed. After the euphoria of Brazil, with that third place tied by just 53 hundredths against Checo Pérez's Red Bull, came a race in no man's land in Las Vegas. The debut of the new American circuit of the championship was not very satisfactory for Alonso. He started ninth and finished in the same position, after seeing his performance hampered as soon as he started: in the first corner, he went off and spun, including contact with Valtteri Bottas, which forced him to go into the pits to fix the damage. The consequence of the misfortune was that he began to occupy the back of the grid. Although the Spaniard recovered and ended up getting into the points, he did not seem completely convinced by the initiatory experience in Sin City. “The truth is that I started well, but in the first corner I lost the car. I don't know if I was among several cars or if it was just me... But when I saw Bottas's Alfa Romeo in front, I thought the race was over. The grip level of the track was very low. With the cold hard tire it was difficult for us. I am aware that this problem is the same for everyone, but asphalt without grip on a street circuit is quite dangerous. We have done more than we thought, Lance started P19 and finished 5th, very top. With me we have lost an opportunity, but hey, I started 10th, I finished P9, it's okay”, he resigned himself to the conclusion of the event. In fact, he left some obvious complaints, even though he expressed confidence that Las Vegas' second year on the calendar will be better. “These cars are not made to take curves at 80 kilometers per hour,” he admitted, although he also stated that “overall it was a good event.” Alonso and José Andrés saw each other in Las Vegas The Las Vegas GP brought a smile to Alonso's face, as well as a good time, as he was able to meet an Asturian celebrity like him and with whom he has a friendship: José Andrés. It was his countryman cook who decided to attest to the moment through social networks, specifically Instagram. “It's always good to meet a great Asturian boy. A great friend. Thank you for all the great moments that you have made us live”, was the text with which he accompanied an image in which both appear in Las Vegas. https://www.infobae.com/espana/2023/11/22/el-emotivo-encuentro-de-alonso-y-el-chef-jose-andres-en-las-vegas-un-gran-chico-asturiano/
  16. After the scandal of proportions that shook the business, legal and political world with the disclosure of the secret audio that gave rise to the Hermosilla case, businessman Daniel Sauer - owner of the stock brokerage STF Capital and the factoring company Factop and one of the three protagonists of the meeting leaked to the media, where a plan to pay bribes to public officials was revealed - announced that they had hired a new legal advisor to replace Luis Hermosilla. The chosen one was the UC lawyer, Ernesto Olivares Rodríguez, partner of the Olivares Rodríguez y Cía firm. In the public profiles that have been made of this UC lawyer, it is omitted that his office was the protagonist of another of the great scandals with corrupt lawyers of the last two years. At that time, the Olivares Rodríguez y Cia firm had another name: it was called the Olivares Cisternas Abogados firm, in which the main partners were Ernesto Olivares Rodríguez (today Daniel Sauer's lawyer) and Gabriel Cisternas Zenteno. At that time, by order of the Sixth Guarantee Court and at the request of prosecutor Giovanna Herrera (North Central Prosecutor's Office), the police dropped into the offices of the buffet, in a raid that is still discussed among lawyers in the square. Prevarication and illicit association Until August 2021, Gabriel Cisternas Zenteno, UC lawyer, with a visit to the Legal Clinic of the Catholic University, was recognized as a prestigious criminal lawyer in the area, partner of Ernesto Olivares, and frequent consultant to some media outlets. written press and TV to talk about corruption issues. His resume included having worked for a time as an assistant lawyer for the North Central Prosecutor's Office. Starting from a thread that began to be pulled in 2015, when a woman withdrew from the notary office of Juan Ricardo San Martín Urrejola, in Santiago Centro, five sight vouchers and five checks, all from the same bank, for a total amount of $299,999,500 Through a false special power, the Prosecutor's Office and Bridec began to realize that they were dealing with a “criminal SME,” as it was described in court when everything was revealed. The first to fall was the Argentine Alejandro Zuik, an old acquaintance of collar and tie crimes. In 2005 he committed fraud for which the US justice system persecuted him after appropriating import payments to a Korean company, through the presentation of false documentation from the Security Bank of Chile. https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/11/22/exsocio-de-nuevo-abogado-de-daniel-sauer-fue-condenado-por-prevaricacion-y-asociacion-ilicita/

  18. There was a time when the world of video games had been conquered by old 16-bit consoles. Both Mega Drive and Super Nintendo struggled to convince the kids of the time that they were the best, but one of them was characterized by taking advantage of a genre that, over the years, became increasingly po[CENSORED]r: JRPGs. of Square with turn-based battles. As is the case with Erathlock. This title, which hit stores in September 2016 for Xbox One, a few days later for PC and then for PlayStation and finally Nintendo Switch, has become over time one of the culprits that caused that old genre. has returned 30 years later. After many evolutions and changes, in the end the fans who lived through those 90s preferred the original formula, seen in titles as recent as the great Sea of Stars. Free for a limited time The fact is that, although it has been around for almost seven years, Earthlock is one of those names that passes under our radar too many times without us realizing the amount of hours of entertainment and fun it can provide us. And today, right now, the time has come for you to get a little interested and, if you want to try it on your computer, you can get it completely free. For free. Without giving up a euro. This is happening right now within the Epic Games Store, which has the game available for PC completely free for a limited time, so within that period it will be possible for us to get it for nothing in return. Of course, the promotion ends next Thursday, November 23 at around 5:00 p.m., at which time it will cost the 26.99 euros listed on its official page within the store. Needless to say, this is a unique opportunity to get hold of a game whose progression in the market has always been upward and which has conquered all possible platforms, from Microsoft to Sony and ending with Nintendo. He will have something when everyone blesses him and it is in his RPG soul where we must go to look for that success. Like the legendary classic RPGs Although graphically it does not rely on pixel art, as in the case of Sea of Stars, everything that moves Earthlock has to do with a genre that has been captivating us for 30 years. Proof of this is its progression, its way of playing, leading a group of heroes that we can improve with certain stats and an essential point that is the turn-based combats that define practically the entire genre. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/como-conseguir-gratis-earthlock-rpg-clasico/
  19. We don't need to talk about the times we have discussed new portable consoles this year. The market is very active in this sector and there are many companies that are betting on it, with new models and versions of these devices. Today, we will see a new device from one of the most po[CENSORED]r manufacturers of these months, AYANEO, with its new AYANEO SLIDE, which looks more like a computer than a simple video game console. This is the AYANEO SLIDE And it's been more than a year since its first leak, although, finally, it's real, and we have all the details of this new console, very powerful and with characteristics more typical of a miniature computer than a console. to play some games. Among its main features we find the processor, a Ryzen 7 7840U from AMD, made up of 8 cores and 16 threads, with a base frequency of 3.3 GHz and a maximum speed of up to 5.1 GHz. Its TDP would be 28W. Regarding the integrated GPU, we have a Radeon 780M at 2700 MHz accompanied by 16 GB LPDDR5X and 7500 MHz RAM as well as 512 GB of M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 storage. All this as a base configuration, since, like most of its consoles, AYANEO allows us to increase both its RAM memory and its storage capacity, being able to offer us up to 64 GB and 4 TB respectively. As for its screen, it would be 6 inches IPS with Full HD resolution (1080p) and 400 nits of brightness. All this working thanks to its 46.3 Wh battery, which we will see how it behaves, being larger than that of other competitors such as the ROG Ally, although smaller than some of the brand itself. Its keyboard would be international QWERTY, so, despite being the same one we use every day, we would not have keys like Ñ (unless we see independent versions by country, something that is not confirmed). Within a Windows 11 operating system, how could it be otherwise. The size of this machine would be 226 x 90 x 37.5 mm with a total weight of 650 grams, slightly more than the competition, but very transportable anyway. As for the release date and prices, we are very close to it, since during the month of December we will be able to purchase it in both black and white. The cost will range from $699 to $899, depending on whether we want to get it in pre-sale or wait for it to be officially released. Likewise, it will depend on its configuration, with its most powerful version reaching $1,599. https://hardzone.es/noticias/equipos/nueva-ayaneo-slide-consola-portatil-parecida-ordenador/
  20. President Gabriel Boric toughened his position in the face of requests for him to attend the inauguration of Javier Milei. He stressed that it is a “state matter” and stated that he does not need to be told what he should do. Senators Francisco Chahuán (National Renewal) and Rojo Edwards (Republican Party) urged him directly after Milei's victory over Sergio Massa in the Argentine presidential elections, demanding that he personally attend the change of command of the leader of La Libertad Avanza (LLA). . But the pressure doesn't just come from the opposition. The senator and president of the Party for Democracy (PPD), Jaime Quintana, expressed that he “would not understand” if President Boric does not cross the mountain range on December 10 for the ceremony in which Alberto Fernández will leave the Casa Rosada. “Our relationship with Argentina is strategic and is not subject to whoever temporarily occupies power,” declared the official leader. The Government stated that President Boric has not yet received the invitation for the trans-Andean change of command, although the spokesperson for La Moneda, Minister Camila Vallejo, pointed out that the President's attendance “will depend largely on the presidential agenda.” “I hope it happens today” The debate spread to social networks, where the transversal pressures towards the Head of State stood out. Faced with this situation, it was President Boric himself who came out to give explanations. In fact, he revealed that he is scheduled to speak tonight or tomorrow, Tuesday, with Javier Milei. “Let's try to talk today. When I was elected there was like a full week of calls, but we are trying to communicate. It seems to me that these are State issues that must be done at the institutional level. I hope it happens today,” explained President Gabriel Boric in a press conference after the announcement of the bill that creates the Access to Justice and Victims Advocacy Service. Asked about the aforementioned pressures, Boric insisted that it is a “state matter” and warned: “I don't need anyone to tell me what as President I have to do or not.” Furthermore, he emphasized that the Chilean people and the Argentine people are brothers, so his duty as President of the Republic is that, regardless of the political differences that "undoubtedly exist", both countries have high-minded State relations. https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/11/21/boric-responde-a-presiones-para-asistir-a-investidura-de-milei-no-me-digan-lo-que-tengo-que-hacer/
  21. A baby sea otter searches for crabs or snails, which the animal carries to the surface in its armpits. An adult sea otter eats about a quarter of its weight in shellfish a day, and as its po[CENSORED]tions rebound, tensions with shellfish harvesters increase, according to the report, published in our February issue. Image taken with permit 37946D from the US Fish and Wildlife Service. A curious baby sea otter peeks out from behind a column of algae while searching for crabs or snails in California's Monterey Bay. Each of these hairy marine mammals can eat about 7 kilos of seafood meat a day. However, in the early 20th century, this scene could be extremely rare, as the fur trade drove these aquatic predators to near extinction. Fortunately, efforts such as the reintroduction of animals into their natural habitat have helped the species recover, although it is not yet out of danger. The southern sea otter, a subspecies, is threatened in California, where only 3,000 animals remain. Ralph Pace's photography offers a close-up of wildlife in their native habitat. It is also one of 18 photos that National Geographic editors have chosen as the best wildlife photos of the year. "The images chosen this year reflect the wide range of stories we cover (across species, ecosystems, geographies and photographic styles) that convey the wonder, surprise, humor and vulnerability of the creatures with which we share the planet" says visual director of natural history and conservation Alexa Keefe. She hopes these images inspire a love for the natural world. Some of the animals featured represent success stories, such as the endangered African wild dogs, whose po[CENSORED]tions have been stabilized in the Niassa Special Reserve in Mozambique thanks to the investment of local people. Others are endangered, such as the mountain hares of the Scottish Highlands, which have evolved to camouflage themselves in the snow, but could face an uncertain future in a world that is becoming less snowy. Others simply encourage us to take a closer look at the creatures that inhabit our wonderful world, such as the hidden beauty and allure of spiders or the amazing techniques that orcas employ to capture unattainable prey. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales/2023/11/mejores-fotos-fauna-vida-salvaje-2023-national-geographic
  22. When the car sells well, it is not necessary to modify it much and that is precisely what Hyundai has done with the Tucson, only improve what is needed to continue staying current in its segment. We will see these changes quickly in Korea and Europe, but they will be dropped next year in the United States and if we are lucky, also in our country later. Hyundai did not want to say much about the changes, since this is only a preview of the model's presentation, which is where they will reveal more details about the changes. On the outside at least, there is a discreet revision of the "Parametric Dynamics" language that has served as inspiration for many modern cars in different brands. In this case we see how the headlights and grille continue to be combined into a single integrated element, but with a straighter mask and a redesign of the DRL headlights that merge with it. We also find a more angular bumper with an aluminum-colored finish at the bottom, which is something like a "skid plate" but elongated. There are no images of the rear, but we assume it will also receive some improvements. The wheels, as always, have a new design. The interior changes The most radical change is in the interior, where the previous scheme, of the "waterfall" type and with a surrounding bottom, gives rise to a horizontal design console. Closer to what the brand already uses in other cars, such as the IONIQ 5 and the new Santa Fe. The steering wheel stands out for eliminating the Hyundai logo and placing a horizontal bar with four points, which, as we learned in the IONIQ 5, represents the H for Hyundai in Morse code. Everything digital is now concentrated in a panoramic panel above the vents (with two 12.3" screens), maintaining a cantilevered button panel below it. By moving the gear lever to a selector behind the steering wheel, The center console is also redesigned with a cantilevered compartment with the armrest, leaving a large space for a storage tray in the lower part. We assume that there will be improvements in the driving assistance systems and also a new graphical interface with more functions. The images correspond to the Korean model, so the export variants could have some differences. At least in its home market, two new colors will be offered (Fine Green Matte and Ultimate Red Metallic) plus an optional interior in three color tones. Regarding the powertrain and versions, we will have to wait for later, but at least you know what to expect from the facelift of the Tucson for when Hyundai decides to bring it here. https://noticias.autocosmos.cl/2023/11/21/hyundai-introduce-algunas-mejoras-en-el-tucson-para-el-proximo-ano
  23. He was the culprit of making the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid forgotten. Eden Hazard landed in the capital in 2019 for more than 100 million euros. He seemed to have restored the enthusiasm of the white fans, but of course his signing was not what was expected. Last October he decided to hang up his boots after his departure from the white club, renouncing various offers, including one from Saudi Arabia. Nigerian midfielder John Obi Mikel shared a team with the Belgian for five seasons at Chelsea. He went on Rio Ferdinand's podcast, in which he revealed the conversation he had with Hazard before Hazard announced his retirement. Mikel confessed that the striker asked him if he should accept the Arab offer: “Should I go to Arabia, where I will earn a million pounds a week, and then what?” The former Belgian footballer confessed that he had received "two or three offers to go to Arabia." “Mikel, I have a lot of money. You know how I live my life. I don't spend too much money. So now I have money to live with my family and raise my children,” he reflected with his former partner about the offer received. Possibly, the incorporation of his son Leo Hazard to Real Madrid's Benjamín B has been one of the determining reasons for rejecting the offer. The Belgian preferred to stay in the capital with his family and renounce the football elite. Although he was a truncated white signing, after reaching an agreement with Real Madrid to terminate his contract, as he still had one year left, he had no shortage of offers. Belgium, the MLS, as well as Arabia, were interested in the player. The first wanted to reunite him with his brothers in Brussels to continue making the league competitive, while the second wanted a player profile that could stand up to Inter Miami. Despite the offers and the many footballers who have chosen the Arab country to continue their career, like Karim Benzema, the Belgian decided to hang up his boots on October 10 and focus on family life. Thus, Eden Hazard closed his stage in the last market. In the talk, Obi Mikel confessed that he “respected” the former soccer player's decision a lot, although among other points he commented that he was “so lazy that he didn't even bother to tie the laces of his boots.” His time at Real Madrid Eden Hazard arrived at Real Madrid in 2019, after four years in which he had not managed to reach his highest level. An injury against PSG a few months after landing in the capital meant that his time at Florentino's club was marked by injuries. In fact, he only played 76 games, in which he managed to score seven goals and give twelve assists. https://www.infobae.com/espana/2023/11/21/el-motivo-por-el-que-hazard-no-ira-a-arabia-saudi-tengo-mucho-dinero/
  24. Every time she can, Elena Rivera (44), president of the Colla Indigenous Community of the Copiapó Commune, visits the Maricunga salt flat. This wetland is located 171 kilometers from the regional capital of Atacama, at about 3,757 meters high. It is not easy to get to from the city, but Elena is used to the altitude and the long roads between ravines and mountains. She lives in Paipote, southwest of Copiapó, although her headquarters and part of the members of her community reside above. Contrary to what is believed, the desert keeps memories, as does the salt flat that thousands of years ago was a lake and that today is at the center of discussions due to its high concentration of lithium. “Despite whoever it may be, indigenous peoples live in strategic places where natural wealth is found. Unfortunately, we Colla are stuck in the golden cord, despite the State or these extractive companies that work with the gold,” says Elena. The woman has short hair, a prominent smile, and glasses that cover much of her gaze. She was born down there, but she grew up linked to the mountain range through the memory of her uncles and her mother. Her commitment and dedication to her community led her to want to get involved, preserve and dedicate herself to the knowledge of her culture. “I always saw that drive from my mother to lead things, create, seeing how she was a very leading woman. And, furthermore, she let us follow her legacy, her legacy in terms of culture (…), she was the initiator and promoter of the indigenous community,” she says. Elena has been president of her community since 2014. At that time she served as secretary, but after the death of the president, Gabriel Cardozo, she assumed the board. The following year, its members named her president. Currently, one of the community's concerns is the future extraction of lithium in the Maricunga salt flat. Under the global energy transition model, lithium has become one of the most coveted raw materials in the world, due to its massive use in electric batteries and, in particular, due to its high potential in the electric vehicle industry. On the night of Thursday, April 20, 2023, through the national network, President Gabriel Boric presented the National Lithium Strategy, a mineral extraction plan that has Codelco at its center, in order to establish a public-private collaboration with in order to boost the lithium industry in Chile. Although lithium extraction is a mining activity that has been developing in the country for several years, particularly in the Atacama salt flat in northern Chile. This territory is part of the so-called “Lithium Triangle”, a geographical area on the border of Argentina, Bolivia and Chile. The increase in demand for this mineral to manufacture batteries and other products has motivated growing interest in the public and private sectors in recent years. The mountain range that surrounds the Maricunga salt flat houses an invaluable wealth that can be observed in the diversity of shapes, colors, textures, as well as the flora and fauna that inhabit it. The wind moves the snow that falls high in the mountain range and moves the water that houses the Maricunga salt flat. https://www.elmostrador.cl/cultura/2023/11/21/la-riqueza-en-tierra-ancestral-indigena-cultura-versus-desarrollo-en-el-salar-de-maricunga/
  25. The Last of Us Part II Remastered is now a reality. A few days ago Sony officially announced it for PS5 and with a release date scheduled for 2024, so many fans were satisfied by a rumor that had been circulating the industry for some time. So much so that if we look at what happened with the first game, we will realize the extra time we had to wait with this second installment. The Naughty Dog game hit stores in the middle of the pandemic. A title with such an apocalyptic theme, which takes place in a world in ruins due to another enormous global disaster, produced a profound impact that many players experienced in a very special way. It also helped that this continuation, with Ellie as the true protagonist, delved even deeper into the drama and the most emotional part of the saga's story arc. Too long waiting But we will not deceive you. This PS5 edition of The Last of Us Part II has been a long time coming and has taken the time it needed, for example, the first remaster of the saga, inspired by the first installment that we played on PS3 back in the year 2013, in the month of June. Indeed, on that occasion, the updated version for PS4, call it remastered if you want, landed in stores just a year later, in August 2014. Furthermore, the times were practically the same because The Last of Us arrived in June 2013 and PS4 arrived in November of the same year. In 2020, in the same month we had The Last of Us Part II and in November PS5... which they have left on hold, like the phone calls that we do not want to answer, longer than desired. So we won't complain about The Last of Us Part II Remastered hitting stores, but next time, folks at Naughty Dog and Sony, please hurry up a little more. That then the things that happen happen. Without return and with another studio in charge It must be said that this version of the game will not only graphically improve the original to adapt it to the graphical power of PS5, but a series of extras have been designed to make the experience much deeper. For example, in the less playable part we will have new appearances that we can use while playing with Ellie, or a mode to play the guitar freely, which fans of this musical instrument will like. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/the-last-of-us-remasterizado-tardado-demasiado-llegar/
