No one can doubt at this point that Steam Deck has been one of the great successes in Valve's history. One that has served, not only to sell millions of units, but to definitively establish in the market that segment of consolidated PCs, of machines that we can take everywhere to play whatever we want. So Gabe Newell's guys are really excited. And so much so that on November 16 they put the new Steam Deck model on sale, an update with greater autonomy and an OLED screen that will delight those who already know the platform in detail. Although suddenly, we have found a surprise that Valve seems to have hidden a little and that by knowing the details, we understand why it has done it. Smoked OLED Steam Deck We all know that the Steam Deck is one of the most customizable machines that exist and perhaps that is why Valve has decided that it is going to market a model that departs from those traditional black colors. The result of this experiment is a design with a translucent smoked casing and a series of red decorative elements that embellish the entire set. In this way, the so-called Stem Deck OLED Limited Edition arrives on the market, which, unfortunately for those of us who live on this side of the pond, is only available "in limited units" in both the US and Canada. So when you enter the website, the message appears that this item is not available in your region. How can we avoid it? Well, you can imagine: activate your VPN and see if there is any luck! The machine is identical to the Steam Deck OLED model with 1TB of storage, except for that detail of the semi-transparent casing and the cooling elements, on/off button and base of the analog sticks in red. Which is already enough for many to want to get it at a price that is the same as the normal model with the exterior completely in black: 679 euros. Total settlement In any case, if your intention is to spend less, know that Valve has on sale all the units of its old 64 and 256GB models that arrived in stores in February 2022 so, if you want to get one, you They will cost only 369 and 419 euros, respectively. Needless to say, the most modest device is a real bargain because for that price, plus that of a 1TB SSD, the set will barely cost you 450 euros. Even so, despite this move to launch Steam Deck OLED, Valve should now be thinking about how to take the next step in the generation, because as the months go by, its device is showing more and more difficulties in playing with a certain agility. AAA games. And that, with competition from Ayaneo, Asus or Lenovo, is making the path a little more complicated. Don't you think so? https://hardzone.es/noticias/equipos/valve-vendera-steam-deck-exclusiva/

The publication of an audio where the lawyer Luis Hermosilla has an impudent and rude conversation with his client, the businessman Daniel Sauer, and with the lawyer María Leonarda Villalobos, fundamentally to agree on the way (and the amount) to corrupt officials public, in order to prevent the law from operating, has shaken the civic, legal and political atmosphere of the country. Although it is appropriate, in the immediate term, to place the central focus on the commission of crimes, this will clearly be insufficient, especially given the notoriety of those involved and their extensive network of links, as well as the seriousness of the events that occurred. They investigate the functioning of the country's economic institutions. Issues of probity linked to officials (still unknown) of two of the pillar institutions of our economic model are called into question: the Internal Revenue Service (SII) and the Commission for the Financial Market (CMF), and this occurs at a time critical of our political system in terms of public faith and probity, in addition to weak citizen confidence in institutions. For more than a decade now, our economic constitution – or set of rules of the economic game – has been making efforts to close gaps and regain legitimacy, due to successive transgressions by major economic actors, in various directions and with different methods. Collusion and market abuses, opacity of financial information, use of privileged information, influence peddling and other corruptive activities have negatively affected regulatory systems and financial oversight and control and intelligence mechanisms. This case, in which the disclosed audio revolves around the SII and the CMF and a possible porosity and corrupt discretion, based on tariffed payments, is more than serious and implies a regulatory risk that, without prejudice to being thoroughly investigated, entails From now on, a reputational disgrace for the country. Both the CMF – the body in charge of guaranteeing the health of corporate governments and the financial stability of companies – and the SII – which collects and sues those who violate tax rules – are today obliged to provide guarantees that the risk is controlled and that there are no nuclei of corruption in its organization. The case covers, among other corrupt aspects, billions of pesos in false billing that simulates economic movements and services that did not exist. Perfectly, in addition to legal companies operating outside the law, there could have been criminal businessmen laundering money. All, with a multiplicity of political convergence and public corruption, as can be seen from the leaked audio, which essentially denotes the possibility of selling confidential information in order to undermine or prevent the controls and inspections ordered by the authority. https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/opinion/editorial/2023/11/20/caso-hermosilla-la-corrupcion-que-pone-a-prueba-la-fortaleza-de-las-instituciones/

Domestic cats have 276 different facial expressions, a discovery that turns upside down the po[CENSORED]r belief that our felines are distant and don't like us. In fact, it is likely that cats have developed these expressions thanks to us, a product of communication between felines and humans over 10,000 years of domestication. "We have a very deep history with cats," and so there is a "growing interest" in how to decipher their emotions, says Brittany Florkiewicz, a comparative and evolutionary psychologist at Lyon College in Arkansas, who led a recent study on cats. the phenomenon published in the journal Science Direct. Most previous research on facial signaling in cats has focused on cat-human interactions or assessing when a cat is in pain. The new study goes a step further and looks at how cats interact with each other. And what better place to do it, says Florkiewicz, than a cat cafe? She and her colleague Lauren Scott, co-principal investigator in Florkiewicz's lab, spent 150 hours at the CatCafe Lounge in Los Angeles, California, USA, a nonprofit shelter where visitors can meet up to 30 cats to its possible adoption. Their observations of 53 domestic short-haired cats revealed a wide variety of expressions (combining various eye, ear and lip movements) and that most of them were friendly, not aggressive. Many felines would instantly recognize some of these expressions as friendly, such as ears and whiskers forward and eyes closed. But others, like what researchers call the "game face," with the ears and whiskers forward and the mouth pulled back, don't have such an obvious meaning. What's more, a lick on the lips might suggest that a cat is expecting a treat, but when combined with narrowed pupils and flattened ears, it's an unfriendly signal. In general, whiskers are surprisingly revealing: happy cats almost always point their whiskers forward. Is that a fake smile? After hours in the cat cafe, Scott recorded 194 minutes of feline interactions, excluding non-communicative behaviors such as yawning or chewing. Back in the lab, the team used a facial expression coding system called Facial Action Coding System, or CatFACS. Trained users can identify "even the most subtle of muscle movements," says Florekiwicz, and each of these movements, called an "action unit," is noted and assigned a number using a video program, ELAN. This allows users to create and edit a timeline of video sequences, he says, that can read expressions at the millisecond level. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales/2023/11/gatos-domesticos-tienen-276-expresiones-faciales

With this background, we took advantage of our visit to Los Angeles to get into the fifth generation of the model, which was presented globally just one year ago, and which today competes for the largest global award in the automotive industry: the World Car of the Year, and of which the director of Autocosmos, Marcelo Palomino, participates as part of the jury. It is worth saying that the new Prius is offered in hybrid and plug-in hybrid format, called Prius Prime, and this fifth generation was conceived from scratch seeking not only to be a more striking car for different audiences, but also, appealing to timelessness, to be a car that will continue to be recognized in 25 more years. Unfortunately, Chileans will not have the opportunity to see it on our streets. Despite the secrecy and distance that Toyota Chile has with the specialized media, we learned that it is very unlikely that the Prius will arrive in our country. A shame considering the intense campaign deployed by the brand to get hybrid technology recognized as equivalent to electric technology by the authority. Toyota Prius: features For the first time in its history, Toyota designers and engineers had complete freedom to rethink the Prius, without aesthetic constraints in pursuit of high aerodynamic efficiency (in fact, this model has worse Cx than the previous one). So 25 years of the horrendous raindrop design was put to an end to gain a clean redesign for those people who traditionally wouldn't consider a Prius as a purchase option. Built on an evolution of the TNGA platform, the new Prius is longer, lower and wider than the model it replaces, offering a sportier and highly attractive look. It measures 4.53 meters long, 1.78 m wide and 1.42 m high, with a wheelbase of 2.75 meters. The Prius retains its classic single-stroke silhouette, but is now an attractive, well-proportioned car, almost like a sports fastback, with some very interesting dynamic features. The hidden rear handle, the ascending cut in the front door that projects towards the rear, a lower center of gravity and some elements borrowed from the Toyota Crown, including the front ("Hammerhead Shark" they call it in Toyota) with spotlights in C-shaped or the LED bar that runs along the gate. The 19" wheels also help to provide a much less utilitarian image like that of other, more austere generations. Inside we have a higher perceived quality and a less futuristic cabin than the previous ones, but somewhat more functional. The most striking thing is the rearward position of the instrument panel (7-inch digital), almost as if it were a Head-Up Display, which, however, is partially covered by the steering wheel depending on the position of each driver. In my case, I always lost some information. https://noticias.autocosmos.cl/2023/11/20/toyota-prius-primer-contacto-desde-los-angeles

It is paradoxical that the greatest promise that Madrid CFF had, the one that had already emerged from the youth ranks when he played in a mixed team, escaped the radar of Real Madrid, a neighboring team, to end up in its greatest rival, Barcelona. Although it is true that in women's football the hegemony of the all-powerful Barça club weighs more than anything else for the majority of players, perhaps the most normal thing is that Valdebebas would have gone ahead. It was not like that and Vicky, a precocious talent, ended up in Barcelona. Her story goes back to when she was nine years old, when she joined the Madrid CFF youth team, a time when there was still no trace of Real in women's sports, Alba Mellado and Paola Ulloa, who were then in charge of the Madrid team, they saw her play on a beach in Benidorm, and it was immediately clear to them: that girl had to play on their team. And they were not wrong with her bet, that girl with curly hair dazzled in each and every one of the games she played. Vicky, as she likes to be called, quickly stood out in women's football, becoming one of the young promises of the competition, “the pearl” of women's football. At just 15 years old, she made her debut in the First Division wearing the Madrid CFF shirt, the club that “raised” her and saw her grow as a footballer, but also as a person. She became the youngest player to debut in the top competition officially. The lion, as they nicknamed her because of her curls, did not leave anyone indifferent with her dribbling, with a versatile profile, to play both in the center of the field, distributing play; as a forward, to finish the play and put the ball in the back of the net. You may be interested in: El Clásico in League F: Madrid's 'impossible' dream of discussing the hegemony of a Barcelona that is still unattainable A young player who made a difference at only 15 years old and who soon attracted the attention of the big teams. However, faced with the first attempts by clubs with a certain reputation to sign her, her father decided that the best thing for her was for her to continue in Madrid and continue growing in her lifelong team. The problem is that Vicky's brilliance could not be contained, she was destined to succeed and when Barça knocked on her door, they could not refuse her offer. It is the best club nationally, but also internationally. In July 2022, Madrid's young promise began to wear the Barça shirt with a contract for five seasons. https://www.infobae.com/espana/2023/11/20/vicky-lopez-el-leon-azulgrana-que-ha-escrito-su-nombre-en-la-historia-de-los-clasicos/

The Colombian singer Shakira accepted this Monday the payment of a fine of 7.3 million euros in exchange for a reduced sentence that will prevent her from going to prison, after admitting before the Court that she defrauded the Spanish treasury of 14.5 million between 2012 and 2014. The artist, who was a partner of the former Spanish soccer player and businessman Gerard Piqué, with whom she has two children, ratified before the Barcelona Court the agreement that her defense reached at the last minute with the private accusations and the Prosecutor's Office, which requested for her eight years and two months in jail. The agreement avoids the trial that was to begin this Monday to resolve whether Shakira evaded paying taxes between 2012 and 2014 by pretending that she resided outside of Spain. Under the agreement, the court sentenced. Shakira to a three-year prison sentence and the payment of a fine of 7.3 million euros, an amount much lower than the amount set previously, which was 23.7 million euros. . In addition, Shakira can avoid going to prison in exchange for a payment of 432,000 euros in total, 400 euros for each day she had to spend behind bars. Before today's hearing, the singer returned the 14.5 million euros defrauded to the Spanish treasury, plus another three million in interest, which allowed the mitigating circumstance of reparation for the damage to be applied to her case. The artist, who was wearing a pink jacket and pants suit and covered her eyes with sunglasses, was received outside the court by about a hundred people, most of them journalists and photographers, but also curious people and some admirers, which were surrounded by a strong police force. Shakira entered through the main door accompanied by her lawyers and several police officers. The Colombian artist, 46, and the former Barcelona soccer player, 36, announced their separation in 2022 after twelve years, after which Shakira moved to Miami (United States) with their children following an agreement on their custody. https://www.elmostrador.cl/tendencias/2023/11/20/shakira-pacta-una-multa-millonaria-y-admite-fraude-fiscal-para-evitar-la-prision-en-espana/

Few characters are more po[CENSORED]r in the world of video games than Mario, the mustachioed plumber from Nintendo who, over the decades, has become a pop culture icon, loved by children and adults and who is conquering all the spaces you can imagine. Who doesn't have one of his t-shirts? Or pajamas, some sheets, a folder, a pen or a sticker placed on the back of the car? For almost 40 years, Mario has brought us a game formula that is that of the Super Mario Bros: 2D platforms (2.5D lately with the New ones), items to improve our hero, enemies, obstacles, bonuses, coins and many shells to destroy with jumps. That mechanic, unique and exclusive to Nintendo, is what we celebrate today by remembering the best that this saga has left us. Two dimensions of Nintendo fun So to celebrate that Super Mario Bros Wonder is now on sale and is sweeping reviews, becoming in just a few hours the classic 2D Mario game with the best ratings, today we take on the task of seeing which are the best according to Metacritic users. We begin. 5. Super Mario Advance As we move through the list you will realize that one of Nintendo's best portables, Game Boy Advance, had some of the best cartridges for the character. In the case of the first of that generation, we are, without a doubt, facing one of the most complete and with a color that fans fell in love with. On Metacritic it has an 84. 4. New Super Mario Bros. Wii Wii also had several Super Mario titles among its extensive catalog of games, although this was a turning point as it ended up becoming the first for a home console to add competitive multiplayer and extremely beautiful 2.5D graphics. Its Metacritic score is really good, and it's only fourth place, an 87. 3. New Super Mario Bros. Another console with a great history in terms of plumber games was the Nintendo DS, which is the one that saw the birth of this New Super Mario Bros. series. Much more advanced graphics and, as the title says, a new beginning for the old platform franchise. Despite being third on the list, it has an incredible score of 89. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/cinco-mejores-super-mario-bros-nintendo/

Surely in recent months you have heard a lot about processors with heterogeneous cores, but you don't know what it means. Although you heard it mainly about Intel processors, we know that AMD will apply it in future generations of Ryzen. We are going to explain in a simple way what a heterogeneous processor is and how it differs from the previous structure of monolithic processors. First of all, you should know that this is not Intel's heterogeneous processors, but they have copied it. To say that they have copied it is to simplify it a lot, let's say that they have extrapolated the idea of the ARM architecture. Maybe ARM doesn't dream of you either, but they are specialized in designing cores for smartphone processors. Yes, in your pocket you carry a processor from this company, well, designed by them since they do not manufacture anything. Don't worry, we are going to give you all the keys so that you can show off your technological knowledge at your friends gatherings. Understanding the term monolithic processor First of all, you should know that monolithic does not at any time refer to the size of the processors. It rather refers to the cores and not to their size, but to their design. You should know that processors formerly had 1 core exclusively. The first commercial processor to have a higher count was the Intel Core2Duo released in 2011 and which had two cores. Currently we have commercial processors with up to 16 cores and more if we look at solutions for other uses. Monolithic refers to the design and manufacturing of processors. Specifically, it tells us that all the cores have the same size within the DIE of the processor. Actually, it does not make any real reference to the size of the core or its power. What's more, up to the 10th generation Intel Core, the size of the cores has been compressed, allowing the number to increase. Therefore, monolithic is only a type of name to catalog processors with one architecture or typology of cores compared to the new ones that use two architectures or typologies of cores, which are called heterogeneous. ARM and its big.LITTLE architecture The first thing you should know is that ARM does not manufacture absolutely anything. This company specializes in core design and other solutions that it offers to companies like Samsung, Qualcomm and any other company that wants its designs. They offer permission for them to take their designs and combine them however they want, paying, obviously. https://hardzone.es/noticias/procesadores/diferencia-procesadores-nucleos-monoliticos-heterogeneos/

The attack on the police with a grenade, the kidnappings of the last few hours and other criminal acts have once again demanded that the Government take security as a priority in the midst of the processing of the budget law and in the plebiscite campaign. From the Government they say that they hope not to politicize the security issue, to lower the discussion to a technical level and thus confront the opposition offensive. However, a group of Democratic Socialist deputies do not follow the Government's line and even their own party presidents took the floor from them. In the midst of the opposition offensive over the security case, in which both Republicans and National Renewal pointed to the Minister of the Interior, Carolina Tohá, as the main person responsible and threatened to accuse her constitutionally, deputies of Democratic Socialism filed a Request for Resolution so that the Government may declare a State of Constitutional Exception of a national nature, focused on the most affected areas regarding the latest crimes of connotation. Center-left parliamentarians flanked PPD Raúl Soto, who led the announcement. The former president of the Chamber assured that. "although the government is making the maximum of its efforts with all the capabilities of the State, and we value it, everything that is being done is insufficient because the State of Chile, beyond the government of turn, was years behind, and today we are facing a very sophisticated organized crime, with a lot of firepower and a lot of economic power.” Soto indicated that “the time has come to act, the time has come to put on our pants to decisively confront and wage a frontal battle against delinquency and organized crime” and assured that “in security there is no ideological division that is worth it, we must work together.” . It is not time for diagnoses, the diagnoses have already been made, it is time to act.” The initiative doesn't just stop there. The deputies Jaime Araya (IND-PPD), Cristián Tapia (IND-PPD), Héctor Ulloa (IND-PPD), Carlos Bianchi (IND), Felipe Camaño (IND-DC), Eric Aedo (DC), Tomas Lagomarsino (PR ), Marcos Ilabaca (PS) and Soto also proposed a “rake operation” to bring to justice or expel irregular foreigners who are committing crimes, as well as the creation of a high-security prison for organized crime. https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/11/19/diputados-de-centro-izquierda-reman-en-contra-del-oficialismo-con-el-estado-de-excepcion-nacional/

Press articles or social media influencers could make you believe that castoreum, a yellowish and viscous substance from the castor sacs near the beaver's anus, is found in traditional vanilla-flavored products, disguised as "natural flavoring." According to some of these sources, castoreum is an ingredient in all kinds of products, from ice cream to strawberry-flavored oatmeal. But experts say this couldn't be further from the truth. Although people have used castoreum for medicinal purposes and, yes, to flavor perfumes and foods since ancient times, today there is almost nothing in the supermarket that contains castoreum. "It turns out that the material is incredibly expensive, because it's rare; there's no way it's in your ice cream," says Michelle Francl, a chemist at Bryn Mawr College in the United States who studies food science. In 2020, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), about 16 million kilos of vanilla extract, extracted from vanilla orchids, were produced worldwide, a large group of flowering plants. That said, castoreum still exists in niche products like bäversnaps, a Swedish liquor, according to the 2022 book Beavers: Ecology, Behavior, Conservation, and Management. by Frank Rosell and Róisín Campbell-Palmer. According to the latest edition of Fenaroli's Handbook of Flavor Ingredients, less than 300 pounds of castoreum, castoreum extract, and castoreum liquid are consumed in the U.S. each year. To collect castoreum, trappers kill beavers and extract their castor bean glands, which are dried and crushed. They then use alcohol to extract the castoreum, similar to how vanilla is extracted from the plant, Francl explains. Versatile medicine For more than 2,000 years, castor oil has been used to cure all kinds of ailments, such as fevers, stomach problems and mental illnesses. The secretions were also used in soaps and creams, and were once added to cigarettes to enhance their aroma. Hippocrates even wrote about the healing properties of castoreum in 500 BC. "In Roman times it was already part of the po[CENSORED]r pharmacopoeia," says Francl. The po[CENSORED]rity of castoreum as a medicine likely has something to do with its chemical composition. According to the 2022 book, castoreum may contain more than 75 different chemical compounds, an unusually high diversity. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales/2023/11/y-si-tu-helado-de-vainilla-contiene-fluidos-grasos-de-castor

The proximity to a new transfer market in Argentina has the latent possibility of a greater flight of talents to Europe. Although the League Cup has not yet ended, several teams are beginning to turn their gaze to this country and the Premier League threatens to take one of the diamonds in the rough generated in the Vélez Sarsfield Lower School. Fortín, which is seriously committed to relegation in the final stretch of the championship, could lose Santiago Castro in the coming weeks because the English newspaper The Sun revealed Brentford's negotiations to retain the center forward's services. Bee authorities were in South America during the past week. “They want to make a deal,” the newspaper stated. The media describes Castro as a “wunderkind” chosen as a possible replacement for Ivan Toney, the team's figure who has remained away from the field since last May due to an eight-month ban after being guilty of 262 violations of rule E8, whose application makes it impossible for footballers to bet on other matches. In this sense, the morning newspaper delved into his information: "Brentford hopes to acquire the services of the Argentine star in an ambitious operation." Although the amounts of the offer were not specified, the 19-year-old attacker has a contract until December 31, 2025 with the Velez entity. The youngster who emerged from the quarry has played 63 games with eight goals and two assists. The main obstacle for the operation to come to fruition at the end of the year and avoid its postponement until mid-2024 is located in the future of the English player. Toney would be in the sights of Arsenal and Chelsea to be a reinforcement in the coming months, but a source close to him told The Sun a different version about a possible departure in the short term: “Many people assume that Ivan will leave later Christmas, but no agreement has been closed and nothing has been decided.” “He is undecided about his future. “Brentford has supported him and the club has been brilliant,” the testimony continued. And he added: “A part of him wants to help them, starting in January and scoring the goals that ensure they stay in the Premier League.” Likewise, Brentford remains far from the red zone. They are in 11th place with 16 points, 4 behind the last team (Newcastle) that qualifies for an international cup. This version could delay the negotiations for the arrival of Santiago Castro for six more months: “There are many clubs interested in Iván, but his objective, for now, is to return to the Brentford playing fields and do things well for his coach. Thomas Frank, with whom he feels he has a great debt to settle. The same can be said for the fans.” https://www.infobae.com/deportes/2023/11/19/una-de-las-promesas-del-futbol-argentino-esta-en-la-mira-de-un-club-de-la-premier-league/

Interviewed on Mesa Central, on Channel 13, the General Director of Carabineros, Ricardo Yáñez, assured this morning that "I fully agree that Chile is the safest country in the region", coinciding with the assessment that, in that sense, the Prosecutor made. National, Angel Valencia, who last week said that “in numbers, Chile continues to be the safest country in Latin America.” As Yáñez explained, “the latest homicide report shows that Chile is in last place. There are three countries that do not have figures or records, which are Argentina, Peru and Bolivia, which do not report their homicide records.” Likewise, he indicated that “we have 4.6% homicides per one hundred thousand inhabitants. This cannot satisfy us, every time a person dies it is something extremely serious, but it shows that when we compare ourselves with the rest of the neighborhood - and not with the countries beyond the Atlantic -, our concern has to be with our neighbors to face together the problems that are attacking us.” In the same sense, he admitted that "they are phenomena that we are not used to seeing, that are due to particular realities in other countries, where this type of events were perhaps common, that in some way have crossed the border and have gone away." installing in the countries. They are modalities that were exported due to immigration, and with that I do not want to stigmatize the entire foreign po[CENSORED]tion, quite the contrary, they are more victims than perpetrators, but an important group comes to commit crimes, taking advantage of the fact that there are people who come to seek better quality of life,” he added. Along these lines, he maintained that “these modalities from other countries are common. What we have to do is prevent them from being installed and for that there are capabilities, both Carabineros and PDI are highly professional. In 48 hours we were able to clarify two kidnappings that occurred in one weekend, which speaks of professional capacity. Obviously we have to continue perfecting our people and training to have better results.” In this sense, he explained that only last week Carabineros made 2,700 arrests nationwide, highlighting the case of one of those arrested, who had more than 90 previous arrests. https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/11/19/director-de-carabineros-asegura-que-nuevos-delitos-son-modalidades-que-se-exportaron-por-la-inmigra/

Mario Kart is one of Nintendo's reference sagas since Super Nintendo, the console for which the first installment arrived and which has always remained a must-have within the company's launch policy in each and every one. of the consoles it has launched since the 90s. Now, Switch has been an exception because it has had to live throughout the generation with a development that came from Wii U. Indeed, Mario Kart 8 went on sale in May 2014 practically all over the world for Wii U and due to the sales of the console it was not particularly remembered by anyone. But a few years later, in 2017, someone at Nintendo thought of rescuing it to publish it under the Deluxe label as is on Switch, and that is where the definitive explosion of this phenomenon occurred. Almost ten years later, rumors are beginning to be heard about a new installment. Nintendo, like Rockstar Indeed, after a decade making the most of the Mario Kart 8 phenomenon, it seems that the Japanese – like Rockstar with the future GTA VI – want to leave that source of joy and income behind and focus on a new game that would arrive just in time to accompany to the future Nintendo Switch 2, which everyone assumes will land in stores sometime in 2024. Something that remains to be seen. Be that as it may, the information is already pointing to the fact that it will be in 2025 when we can play the new installment, eleven years after it was first launched on the market, in which it would be the tenth installment that Nintendo desktop consoles have seen since , as we have already mentioned before, SNES. So if you are a fan of these races with the classic characters of the house, get your kart ready. What will the new Mario Kart be called? As we tell you, although on Wii U and Nintendo Switch we can say that we have played with the same title, Mario Kart 8, in reality so much content has arrived for the hybrid console within the Deluxe edition that we could consider it as completely separate from the rest and Therefore, defining it as the ninth installment. That is why there is a bit of discussion about whether the Japanese are going to choose to continue with the corresponding numeral, "9", or recognize that Switch 2 will be the tenth video game in the main series. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/nintendo-nuevo-mario-kart-como-rockstar/

On the eve of the plebiscite on December 17, in which Chilean citizens will demonstrate “In Favor” or “Against” the proposal for a new constitution supported by the Republican Party and Chile Vamos, political analyst Pepe Auth offered a vision criticism about the process and its possible implications. According to the former deputy and former PPD militant, citizens are driven by distrust and hopelessness, fueled by the feeling of having been “walked around” for four years. In a new chapter of Al Pan Pan with Mirna Schindler, the analyst highlighted the perception that the responses to the demands expressed in the social outbreak—beyond violence—were diverted towards a more legal than social pact. The result, according to Pepe Auth, is a “lawyers' pact” that does not adequately address essential social issues, such as pensions and work, that were the driving force of discontent. The analyst suggested that the po[CENSORED]tion perceives that regardless of what is written in the new Constitution, their lives will not experience significant changes. In his view, frustration and mistrust have taken root, creating a perception that the constitutional process has failed to address society's true needs. Auth highlighted that, although politicians have their relevance in the process, they are not decisive. He expressed his belief in the existence of uncertainty because the result will not make a radical difference in the daily reality of citizens. For Auth, the probability of failure is considerable, arguing that the process has already failed by not achieving consensus to establish common rules of the game between political actors and society as a whole. “The process has already failed, it did not achieve consensus to define common rules of the game for all political actors and society,” he stated. From this perspective, Auth hinted that the result of the plebiscite could be, to a certain extent, indifferent. However, he assured that someone for whom he is not indifferent is the leader of the Republican Party and former presidential candidate José Antonio Kast. Pepe Auth facing the constitutional plebiscite: “The process has already failed, it did not achieve consensus” Pepe Auth warned that distrust towards the constitutional process, perceived as a “lawyers' pact” that does not address social demands, could result in a plebiscite where indifference predominates, with the probability of a total failure of special relevance for José Antonio Kast . https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/11/15/pepe-auth-de-cara-al-plebiscito-constitucional-el-proceso-ya-fracaso-no-logro-consenso/

In Jemaa el-Fnaa, Marrakech's bustling main square, street vendors shout special prices for argan oil and wooden camel figurines. Smoke billows from food stalls and motorcycles come dangerously close to pedestrians. Amid the clamor is Cookie, a six-month-old Barbary macaque (Macaca sylvanus) who wears a cream-colored lace cap that makes him look like a human baby. Around his neck is a leather collar connected to a metal chain that he keeps pulling to free himself. Sharla Bonneville, from Toronto, Canada, visiting Marrakech for the first time, exchanges a wary glance with one of her friends as they pass Cookie and two other macaques with their keepers on a Friday afternoon in March. Ignoring the men's insinuations to stop and watch the monkeys' tricks, they continued moving through the crowd. "It's pretty annoying," says Bonneville, referring to the chained monkeys; "My friends and I are not interested in seeing these animals in captivity." Barbary macaques are native to the Barbary Coast, the historical name given to the coastal regions of North Africa. They are the only species of macaque found outside Asia and the only non-human primate that lives in the wild north of the Sahara. With fewer than 10,000 specimens, the International Union for Conservation of Nature considers them in danger of extinction, at risk of disappearing from nature within a decade. Keeping a macaque as a pet in Morocco is illegal and can lead to a fine of up to 10,000 euros, except in Jemaa el-Fnaa, where at least 17 people have permits allowing them to use the animals as a tourist attraction. All this according to Zouhair Amhaouch, director of the Parks and Natural Reserves Division of the National Water and Forest Agency of Morocco. In 2008, the Moroccan Ministry of the Interior proposed to UNESCO that Jemaa el-Fnaa, with its fortune tellers, henna tattooers and macaques, be included in the cultural heritage list. However, UNESCO told National Geographic that it "does not insist on keeping the monkeys, as the plaza includes many other forms of intangible cultural heritage." "The number one reason people come to the square is to see a show," says Adil Ouadrhiri, who owns six macaques, including Cookie, and employs four keepers. "We're here to entertain people, and they want to see monkeys." Ouadrhiri's family has been working with Barbary macaques here since the 1970s. In pairs, his caregivers do the morning or afternoon shift. Ouadrhiri says that each trainer earns about 100 euros a day in tips and that he and they split the day's earnings equally. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales/2023/11/macacos-berberia-marruecos-peligro-siguen-usando-entretenimiento-turistico

The wait could be over for Marcelo Gallardo. The winningest coach in the history of River Plate would have planned his return to football almost a year after his farewell to the Núñez club. According to the Saudi Arabian media Ariyadhiah, the Doll is the one chosen by the Al-Ittihad board and could become the coach of that club. Sources linked to Gallardo's environment confirmed to Infobae that negotiations with the Arab club "are advanced", but they have not yet confirmed that the deal is closed. The situation for the landing of the former millionaire coach would have accelerated after the Spanish Julen Lopetegui gave up directing the team that has Karin Benzema as its biggest star, since his intention is to command a Premier League club in England. For its part, from the Argentine media TyC Sports they indicated that, pending his arrival in Saudi Arabia - it could take place during the weekend after his trip -, the 47-year-old coach would sign a contract for the next 18 months if not last minute problems appear. It is important to remember that during this year, Gallardo had several polls and received some offers to lead a team again. One of the firm proposals that River's former number 10 had came from France: Olympique de Marseille tempted him to join, but his response was negative. These negotiations allow us to establish a precedent to handle the current issue with caution: rumors from France claimed that the Doll had accepted that offer from Marseille, but finally did not agree to the conditions. Another of the offers he had came from Spain. Sevilla tempted him after the departure of José Luis Mendilibar, who although he had just won the Europa League with the Andalusian team, he did not have a good start in the Spanish league and was dismissed. To replace him, the one who finally arrived was the Uruguayan Diego Alonso. Something similar happened with Lyon, which has Nicolás Tagliafico in the squad. Polls, proposals or even rumors that have not come to fruition since November 13, 2022, when he permanently left the River Plate bench. Since his farewell to the Millonario, the other clubs that were suggested as possible destinations for Gallardo were Paris Saint Germain and Monaco (he had a career as a footballer), Napoli, Leeds United and Villarreal, among other institutions. Beyond the polls, as it turned out, the negotiations did not advance and Marcelo preferred to continue enjoying his family and other activities outside of football, something that during his time as a coach he could not do because he was dedicated to his daily work. https://www.infobae.com/deportes/2023/11/15/marcelo-gallardo-a-un-paso-de-volver-a-dirigir-aseguran-que-acepto-la-oferta-del-al-ittihad-de-benzema-y-kante/
