Silent Hill 2 Remake is one of the most anticipated titles of 2023 that, unfortunately, will not arrive this year but has its sights set on 2024. Now, although many have gotten their hopes up about the possibility of having it in the first As of January, the idea that Konami, and the studio that is developing it, have other plans in mind is increasingly taking shape. You know which one is? It must be remembered that the Japanese have launched a strategy to recover old classics from the house with the aim of remaining in the limelight. Lacking the muscle to attempt larger goals and launch new installments of their best-known sagas, they have opted for a more discreet path full of low-profile remakes, collections or remasterings, which do not even remotely want to compete against the AAA of the present. When will Silent Hill 2 Remake come out? The fact is that it was no more and no less than a year ago when we learned that Konami was working on Silent Hill 2 and, more specifically, on a remake in the image and likeness of those that Capcom is making with its Resident Evil in recent years. A reconstruction work of one of the great successes of the Japanese and that everyone expected to land in stores in 2023. But such a thing has not happened and so much so that we are already burning through the last stages of the year and no one has said a peep about the subject. So no one would bet that Silent Hill 2 is going to be released in the month of December. With the load of news that there is, it would practically be suicide to do something so daring. And even less so with a company like Konami behind it, which doesn't seem to be happy with resounding failures. Be that as it may, it is best to get used to the idea that Silent Hill 2 Remake will not come out this year. What's more, it will do so, according to PCGameBenchmark, on March 21, 2024, as it appears on its official page where the technical requirements that our PC must meet to run it with a certain joy and graphic quality are also included. Why the first remake is not Silent Hill Many fans of the old Silent Hill have wondered in recent months why Konami started the house with the roof and, in the image and likeness of Capcom with its Resident Evil, did not start the way with the first and so on throughout the entire successful line of these survival horror. Although there seems to be a compelling reason. The company went so far as to state bluntly that "when we thought about the identity of Silent Hill, we wanted to define what the true psychological horror of the series was. And when you ask people what the real psychological horror is, almost everyone will tell you it's Silent Hill 2." https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/silent-hill2-remake-fecha-lanzamiento/

If you are thinking of purchasing an iPad or you already have one and you are looking for a case with a keyboard so you can work with it from anywhere in a much more comfortable way, but the original one is out of your budget. Today we are going to see the best alternatives. All of them will have a low cost compared to the Magic Keyboard which would be worth more than 300 euros. Sometimes, more than what the tablet itself would have cost us. That is why we are going to compile much more viable options. Best iPad keyboard cases It must be taken into account that this compilation is general, and not all of them are suitable for all models. You will have to enter the item and select yours before purchasing it. Although the price, colors and availability are usually general for all of them and you should have no problem selecting the correct one if any option convinces you. Detachable cover We will start with this model, very versatile, capable of separating the case from the keyboard for greater comfort. In addition, it has a space prepared to leave our Pencil, something that not all of them bring. And the best of all is that we are talking about one of the cheapest cases on the market, around 25 euros with the keyboard included. We can't ask for much more, at least if we are looking for something economical. Obviously, it will not have the same quality as a more expensive one or even the original, but it can help us get out of a bind. Backlit Keyboard Case If we are looking for something of higher quality, but without reaching the price of 300 euros, we have this one from the HOU brand, where we can purchase the case along with a better manufactured keyboard than the previous one and which also offers us the characteristics of the original, the Backlighting of its keys, so it can be used in any light condition. In addition, we can adapt the screen to our range of vision with its flexible support, which allows us to keep the tablet at the desired height and inclination without the need for any other support other than the case itself. https://hardzone.es/noticias/perifericos/mejores-alternativas-funda-teclado-ipad/

The Constitutional Council, which drafted a new Magna Carta proposal, delivered this Tuesday - with the help of its president, the Republican Party member Beatriz Hevia - its final text to President Gabriel Boric, in a protocol act that culminates the second constituent process of the country, facing the plebiscite with mandatory voting on December 17. Annoyance in Chile Let's go and in the ruling party The words of the president of the Constitutional Council, however, generated indignation in part of Chile Vamos, from where they have aligned themselves with the Republican Party to vote in favor of the proposed new Constitution. The indignation of Chile Vamos arises from the constant calls of the Republican Party member to President Gabriel Boric precisely in a “republican act.” Furthermore, considering that the proposal had the entire ruling bloc in the Constitutional Council voting against it, Hevia declared that "we have reached agreements that also reflect the diversity of voices and perspectives that make up our beloved country." Furthermore, his speech was much longer than that of the President and before greeting the authorities, he began a minute of silence for the fire that occurred on the night of November 6 in Coronel, where 14 people of Venezuelan nationality died, including minors. age. Added to this is that Hevia did not thank her now former colleague, the vice president of the Constitutional Council, Aldo Valle (PPD), until the end of the ceremony. Although he thanked all councilors in general, in his speech, he highlighted "their tireless work", although he regretted that "the many points of agreement that existed, at all stages, were not later reflected in the votes or in the opinions of “face to the citizens.” Even so, Beatriz Hevia believes that the text constitutes “an example of what can be achieved when fighting for the common good.” After the closing ceremony of the Constitutional Council, the now former councilor of Social Convergence (CS), Yerko Ljubetic, criticized the speech given by the president of the body, Beatriz Hevia. In her opinion, the Republican “took the stand with a position, something that breaks tradition with presidents, and she told us about a proposal that is not the one we know, she talks to us about a proposal that tells us about diversity, plurality, and this "It is a proposal that does not unite, that does not take care of citizens' demands." In that sense, Ljubetic declared that he was “very confident” that citizens will overwhelmingly vote for the “Against” option in the exit plebiscite. Who also criticized Counselor Hevia's speech was the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Ricardo Cifuentes (DC), who found the speech of the president of the Constitutional Council "curious", "especially with a slightly more political intention." "I believe that this was not the time to generate political criticism, also veiled to the President." https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/11/07/beatriz-hevia-se-roba-los-microfonos-y-causa-indignacion-en-entrega-de-propuesta-constitucional/

In 2021, a dog-like animal was taken to an animal rehabilitation center in southern Brazil after being hit by a car. Shortly after, veterinarians observed unusual behavior. The animal looked and barked like a dog (although it featured long, pointed, fox-like ears), but it also climbed bushes, a behavior more typical of the local Pampas fox, and refused common dog food, preferring to eat rats. The keepers began to wonder if it might not be a hybrid, a mix of a domestic dog and some wild canid from the area, so they contacted Thales geneticist Renato Ochotorena de Freitas and Rafael Kretschmer, from the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, who last month published a study confirming that the animal was the first documented dog-fox in the world. The discovery excited and intrigued animal genetics experts. "What a strange hybrid beast!" wrote Roland Kays, a biologist at North Carolina State University and the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences (United States), on X (formerly Twitter), along with a photo of the creature and a link to the study. He added that, although hybridization between species is well known among more related animals, such as dogs and wolves, the domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) and the Pampas fox (Lycalopex gymnocerus) belong to "two genera separated by 6.7 million of years". "This would be expected to be seen in trees, but not in vertebrates," says Loren Reiseberg, a geneticist at the University of British Columbia (Canada). "It's as if humans produced a viable hybrid with chimpanzees!" Some animal hybrids are well known, such as the mule (a mix of a mare and a donkey), the hinny (a mix of a donkey and a horse) or the liger, a mix of a lion and a tiger, but the case of Brazil was somewhat different. The creature, a female, was named "Dogxim," a cross between "dog" and graxaim do campo, the Portuguese name for the Pampas fox. And although it is the first, it may not be the last of its kind. Environmental changes could lead to more dog-fox hybrids in the future, a possibility that could have problematic consequences. Discovering a hybrid The first step to confirm the possibility that Dogxim was a hybrid was to determine the number of chromosomes in its cells. It had 76 in total, a clue that scientists could use to determine its species, since the same species usually has a fixed number of chromosomes. The maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus) is the only canid in the region with 76 chromosomes, but its appearance and behavior ruled it out as a possible progenitor. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales/2023/09/primer-hibrido-perro-zorro-rareza-genetica-unica-doxim-brasil

In addition, Honda presents a new TrailSport version, with more off-road capability and designed to significantly differentiate itself from the traditional model. It has an off-road suspension, all-terrain tires and steel underbody protection. Ridgeline 2024: exterior and interior design One of the changes that is becoming common in new vehicles from different brands is to add the name of the model stamped on the tailgate, and that happens with Ridgeline, which sports the "RIDGELINE" in a very striking way on the rear. There is also a new framework for the front grille and newly designed wheels. Inside, the user experience has been improved with a new 7-inch digital instrument panel (standard), with a fully digital tachometer on the left and a physical speedometer on the right. The screen also includes different visualizations depending on the user's taste. All Ridgeline models get a new, larger 9-inch color touchscreen, with a faster processor for the infotainment system, which includes wireless connectivity with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Also new is the center console, which includes a large integrated armrest and expanded storage space, which can accommodate a full-size tablet, while in front of the shifter is a wireless charging tray that can fit up to two large phones. All Ridgeline versions maintain the 3.5-liter aspirated V6 engine, which delivers 280 HP and 355 Nm of torque, coupled to a nine-speed automatic transmission, and the i-VTM4 all-wheel drive system. Ridgeline 2024: the new Trailsport The 2024 Honda Ridgeline will be available in four trim levels: Sport, RTL, Black Edition and the new TrailSport. This model was designed with those looking for a little more aggressiveness in their truck. To do this, the brand provides a suspension adapted for off-road, with special coils and stabilizers that improve articulation, and unique adjustment to the damping valves to better support loads. Add to that General Grabber A/T Sport all-terrain tires (245/60R18) that radically improve traction on dirt, sand, mud, rocky terrain and snow, and steel protections for low areas. https://noticias.autocosmos.cl/2023/11/07/honda-actualiza-la-ridgeline-y-lanza-version-trailsport

Emiliano Martínez is, objectively, the best goalkeeper in the world. The 31-year-old Argentine won The Best (awarded by FIFA) and Lev Yashin (at the Ballon d'Or gala) awards, with which he was recognized as the top goalkeeper of last season, in which He became champion in Qatar with the Argentine team. In an in-depth interview with L'Equipe, the goalkeeper revealed unpublished details of his career. “Suffering to overcome is the story of my life,” he defined, in an emotional one-on-one with the journalist Florent Torchut. “I'm one of those who bang my head against the wall when things don't go well. I am very ambitious. The past is the past. I closed a page of my career as a world champion and, now, I want to write another chapter,” he said regarding his desires. With an open heart and without fear when testifying, Dibu spoke, for example, of the modifications to the penalty rule to soften the impact of psychological games, which he successfully appealed to in both the World Cup and the Copa América. "It's too late. That's it, that's it! I got what I wanted, they can change the rules or whatever they want, it doesn't affect me. I will continue giving my best for the National Team. In Argentina they call it the anti-Dibu law... I like it! It's good to know that I caused this. I am simply proud to have helped my country win,” he goaded, in one of the funniest passages. THE MAIN REVELATIONS OF EMILIANO MARTÍNEZ The examples of his mother and father, overcoming economic problems during their childhood “It was difficult for my father, he had to work ten, twelve hours a day. He suffered. When you work in a port in Argentina, sometimes you get paid and sometimes you don't. Some people run away because they don't want to pay you... My father and mother had to work more to pay bills or school fees. His example made my brother and me very strong.” “They told me they had other good goalkeepers. I was young, I still had to progress. Then I had another test at Independiente and Pepé Santoro, the goalkeeping coach, saw something in me that the others didn't see. He felt that I had enormous potential.” How he overcame temptations at Independiente “The Independiente pension is located in Villa Domínico, right next to an emergency neighborhood. And, at that moment, there was no wall between them. There were drugs, alcohol, girls... Many friends went to see the girls there or brought them to the center. At that time, I went to the gym, bowling or trained alone. In the gym there was a fence that I couldn't jump over. So, while everyone else was out partying, I was practicing jumping this fence. That was already my mentality.” The only thing that scared him about the jump to Europe “I was scared of failure. Return to Argentina in the skin of a failure. It's like the World Cup final: I couldn't imagine anything other than success. "It was impossible for me to return to the country without having established myself in European football." https://www.infobae.com/deportes/2023/11/07/dibu-martinez-sin-filtro-la-discusion-por-la-seleccion-que-lo-llevo-a-cambiar-de-rumbo-el-peor-momento-de-su-carrera-y-como-logro-evitar-las-tentaciones/

Starfield is one of the big games of this year and, as you surely remember, it was the protagonist of some controversies on PC due to its tendency to favor AMD chips. And the accusations did not seem to be unfounded because when the Bethesda game arrived on computers, many users with NVIDIA graphics were left wanting to activate the occasional DLSS function. As you know, DLSS is an NVIDIA technology that allows a game to generate extra frames without having to resort to the rendering power of the graphics card, which allows us to get a few extra frames per game with slightly older card models. second. And of course, it is something too juicy not to give the option of having it available in a success like Starfield. DLSS comes to Starfield Thus, in the last few hours Bethesda has announced the arrival on Steam Beta of an update for Starfield in which this NVIDIA technology will be included so that users with GeForce and other models can benefit from an improvement in performance. of the game. Of course, since it is not completely released, this update can be installed by those players who activate the option to allow updates through that channel, which entails certain risks. Those dangers (which are not so dangerous) are that when testing a beta update, it will still not be free of errors, which could lead to the game being a little more unstable. But in many cases, precisely, the arrival of these updates facilitates the publication of the official patch as no major flaws are detected that need to be corrected instantly. In its message on RRSS, Bethesda has announced that “we have worked hard on the Starfield updates and next week we will put it in Steam Beta. This update will feature support for NVIDIA DLSS with frame generation, HDR and display controls for supported systems, and other optimizations and improvements. You can choose to try it through the Steam Beta options. And what about FSR 3? At the same time that many are asking for the arrival of DLSS, on AMD's part, users are also asking Bethesda to know what happens with the update that includes FSR 3, and it must also be said that the company has spoken out, practically in unison. time to advance the arrival of that update on Steam. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/adios-mods-starfield-tendra-soporte-dlss/

While it is true that Intel has been offering integrated graphics in its processors for more than five years, it seems that they had not taken the issue of driver optimizations too seriously until they launched their first dedicated graphics cards a little over a year ago. . Now, the latest graphics card drivers that Intel has already made available to users promise massive performance gains: up to +750% under DirectX 11 and up to +53% under DirectX 12. As you have probably already guessed, the new drivers that Intel has launched are designed to optimize performance in games, but not only for its dedicated graphics from the Arc family but also for all integrated graphics in processors from the 11th generation to the new processors. 14th generation. Of course, processors with iGPU from previous families seem to be left in the lurch this time. What do the new Intel drivers offer? According to Intel, its new 31.0.101.4952 drivers provide a "tremendous performance increase" in many next-generation games. Of course, the data that we are going to provide you below corresponds to Intel's internal tests run at Full HD resolution and with the graphic settings at Ultra, so the result will differ quite a bit if you use a different resolution (you also already know that these things are calculated in ideal environments, then everyone has a different PC and the result always varies). Guild Wars 2: up to +53% performance. Halo: The Master Chief Collection: up to +750% performance. Sid Meier’s Civilization V: up to +10% performance. Lost Ark: up to +15% performance. Warhammer: Vermintide 2: up to +16% performance. Sniper Elite 3: up to +37% performance. World War Z: up to +113% performance. Euro Truck Simulator 2: up to +27% performance. Yakuza 0: up to +154% performance. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare: up to +20% performance. Alien: Isolation: Up to +9% performance. Far Cry Primal: up to +14% FPS. Far Cry 5: up to +14% FPS. Far Cry New Dawn: up to +11% performance. https://hardzone.es/noticias/tarjetas-graficas/intel-drivers-rendimiento-directx/

It's a birthday this month, so no one's mad! Although it must be recognized that the closing of the Constitutional Council on Monday of this week was not happy. In the ruling party, each one spoke to his public and a unitary speech was conspicuous by its absence. The opposition was more orderly, but with a very identity-based discourse. This is how this new phase of the second constitutional process ends, with an uncertain result, while President Gabriel Boric visits Joe Biden in Washington. For this reason, we are going to dedicate a large part of this +Politics to unraveling what is coming in these last days before the plebiscite on December 17. The highlight of the week is the businessmen's decision to go out and convince that “For” is the best option. In the former Concertación, its main leader, Ricardo Lagos Escobar, warned that he will vote “Against.” His former collaborator, Jorge Correa Sutil, warned that the text has flaws and proposed a solution. Andrés Velasco will speak soon. Meanwhile, in the Municipality of Las Condes – the jewel in the municipal crown – knives are flying at the possibility of fighting for mayor against Daniela Peñaloza. And in our bonus track this week: three questions to historian Alfredo Jocelyn-Holt, who explains why minorities are ruling us and warns us to start getting used to it. Additionally, we reviewed how much the Constitutional Council cost; we recount the scandalous appointment in a notary's office; and the little story behind the complaints against the Minister of Energy. Before starting, I want to invite you to share or join +Político, our community grows more every day. If you have not joined yet, I invite you to Sign up or share this newsletter. Last week, we commented that business owners were publicly leaning toward “For.” This week the topic exploded and had as its most public promoter the president of the Pivotes Foundation and head of the Matte group, Bernardo Larraín Matte, who in separate interviews – on Sunday in the newspaper La Tercera and another, on Thursday, on Radio Cooperativa – explained in detail why to vote “For”. The entry of businessmen onto the political scene was sudden and occurred in the last ten days. On October 20, the president of the Confederation of Production and Commerce (CPC), Ricardo Mewes, said on Radio Pauta that “if we analyze all the agreements that have been made on economic matters, it seems to me that the text that today “We have a day to close it and a day to be approved.” Not everyone liked it: two days later, the president of Sofofa – the primus interpares of the CPC branches –, Rosario Navarro, pointed out in La Tercera that “I believe that it is not the role of a union leader to be speaking to for or against a Constitution.” This controversy ended during the week and several business faces came out in their personal capacity to talk about the plebiscite. https://www.elmostrador.cl/politica/2023/11/05/a-favor-los-empresarios-salen-a-bailar-al-ritmo-de-los-republicanos/

On a sunny morning in the Bolivian Andes, Victoria Flores herds llamas and alpacas through snowy wetlands and crystalline natural springs bubbling from the earth. Suddenly, an olive-colored lizard comes out of its lair. The 15-centimeter-long reptile called jararanko ("lizard" in the indigenous Aymara language) perches on a rock, sunbathing. While he is distracted, Flores crouches down, catches him, and beats him to death with a stick. "Sometimes the jararanko is scary: it chases you and bites you," says Flores, who is Aymara and kills the animals legally to use them in traditional medicine. He will use the ground remains of the animal as a "lizard patch", a supposed healing method to treat muscle ailments. Back home, he grinds his meat in a stone grinder and mixes it with wild herbs such as wichullo, black teapot and arnica, until it becomes a pasty green mass that he places on the wound. "We cure ourselves because here there is no pharmacy, no medicine, or anything like that. So we use the jararanko," he says. But soon there may not be any lizards left either. The International Union for Conservation of Nature classifies the Liolaemus forsteri, or Forster's tree iguana, as an endangered species, according to the Red Book of the Vertebrate Fauna of Bolivia. In addition to its collection for use in traditional medicine, the species is also endangered by habitat loss due to mining and development. Bolivian legislation allows indigenous nations to kill the animal for traditional medicine as long as it is used for subsistence purposes, within their ancestral territory and with practices prior to the Spanish invasion. Bruno Miranda, biologist from the Bolivian Herpetology Researchers Network, adds that to date there is no scientific study that supports the medicinal properties of lizards. In fact, "you can be exposed to certain infectious agents that can be harmful, or that can cause certain types of zoonotic diseases," such as salmonellosis. "Therefore, it seems to me that these practices should be reevaluated in current times," says Miranda. Reptiles on the black market Jararanko as an ingredient in traditional Andean medicine has deep roots, dating back to pre-Columbian times. "We learned it from my grandfather. When we hurt ourselves, he cured us like this," says Flores, who today uses this same practice, called zootherapy, with his children. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales/2023/10/lagarto-esencial-aliviar-dolor-ahora-peligro-de-extincion-bolivia

The first Mazda vehicle equipped with an engine of this type was the Cosmo Sport (Mazda 110S) introduced in 1967. From there, the brand continued to refine the performance of its rotary engines, improving power and fuel economy, and above all all durability, maintaining its position as the only automaker to mass produce rotary engines. In June of this year, Mazda resumed production of rotary-engine vehicles for the first time in eleven years, having ended production of the Mazda RX-8 in 2012. It did so to power the Mazda MX-30 R-EV, a extended range electric vehicle, featuring an 830 cc single rotor generator engine. “The rotary engine is a special part of Mazda's history and represents our 'spirit of constant challenge.' I want to sincerely thank everyone who has supported us on this journey, in particular the many customers who purchased rotary-engine vehicles,” says Takeshi Mukai, Mazda senior managing director.

From paradise to hell. Jorge Almirón's Boca followed that path from the moment it qualified for the final of the Copa Libertadores until its outcome with defeat against Fluminense at the Maracaná in Rio de Janeiro. Aside from the anxiety to lift the Seventh, this commitment had taken on total relevance since a victory would return glory to the club and put the team in the Club World Cup; but a fall left him with one foot out of Libertadores 2024. Now the coach will have to overcome it in a more than difficult context and with low spirits. Even though he has achieved the goals that lie ahead, his contract renewal (it expires on December 31) is in doubt. The challenge for the blue and gold strategist will be to recover his team from this defeat as soon as possible and face the final stretch of the year with the physical and mental rest. The semi-final of the Argentine Cup against Estudiantes (it would be on the FIFA Date in November, in a stadium in the province of Buenos Aires) became a huge objective for a cycle that suffered the logical wear and tear of what the Boca World itself generates, but mainly due to the lack of positive results in the last stretch. We must not ignore that without focusing on merits, those from La Ribera did not triumph in any of the seven matches they played in the final phase of the Libertadores. Almirón won only one of the last ten games he coached: against Unión de Santa Fe in the League Cup. In an interview prior to the final, Mauricio Serna was cautious when referring to Almirón's possible renewal and expressed that “there is still time to resolve it.” The Football Council will not make hasty decisions and will let the month of November pass before sitting down with the coach, who will minimally have to show fortitude and intentions to continue to have credit for 2024. Almirón arrived at the club after the departure of Hugo Ibarra and the brief interim of Mariano Herrón, who managed two games in the Professional League (3-0 away victory against Barracas Central and 2-1 defeat in the Bombonera with Colón) and the debut for this edition of the Libertadores (0-0 against Monagas in Venezuela). After two consecutive losses against San Lorenzo and Estudiantes, the current coach made his debut in the Cup in the comeback at home against Deportivo Pereira that marked a turning point in his team's progress. The coach has coached 43 games of which he won 17, drew 13 and lost 13 (his points total does not reach 50% of the total). In addition, it should be noted that he surpassed the six qualifying rounds he faced since his arrival at Xeneize (three for Libertadores and three for the Argentine Cup) and lost the two Superclásicos against River (1-0 at the Monumental for the last Professional League and 2 -0 in the Bombonera in the current League Cup). When referring to the management of agreements for continuity and departures of coaches, the Boca Football Council always had performance in the Copa Libertadores as its axis. https://www.infobae.com/deportes/2023/11/05/jorge-almiron-en-la-mira-que-pasara-con-su-futuro-tras-la-derrota-de-boca-en-la-final-de-la-copa-libertadores/

José Manuel Moller (35 years old, Santiago de Chile) did not want to wash dishes. That's why, at the age of 22, when he decided to leave his parents' house and go with a group of friends to live together in the po[CENSORED]r commune of La Granja, in Santiago, he offered to cook and do the shopping. . As Business Engineering students at the Catholic University in Chile, Moller and his friends came from families of high socioeconomic status, but they wanted to know independence away from the comforts of their homes of origin. The budget they had to live on was not very large and, as a purchasing manager, one of the things that first caught José Manuel's attention was to see that, when purchasing products in small quantities, the price was up to 40% higher than those that were sold in large volumes. It was a kind of “poverty tax,” which the recent graduate set out to correct. This is how Algramo was born 13 years ago, a venture focused on neighborhood stores that started selling products in bulk through dispensing machines and that today works with returnable containers. They already operate with 5,000 warehouses spread throughout Santiago and in the coming months they will expand to the regions of Valparaíso and O'Higgins. Algramo was a pioneer in Latin America and Chile in starting a business with a sustainability purpose behind its business model: it was proposed from the beginning as a company that sought to reduce plastic waste by reusing packaging. The company began to gain fame and recognition worldwide, at the pace of its international expansion, while its founder positioned himself as a key player in the circular economy. A career that he crowned this week after receiving the Champion of the Earth award from the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP). He is the first Chilean to receive this award, which in previous years has gone to figures such as the Swedish activist Greta Thunberg; the British naturalist Sir David Attenborough; former Vice President of the United States, Al Gore; or the current president of France, Emmanuel Macron. Moller was surprised by the news. It is a recognition for which he is not applying and that found the Chilean entrepreneur in the middle of an important turning point in his life, he tells EL PAÍS connected by video call from a hotel room in Istanbul, Turkey, the city in which he participated in the first face-to-face meeting with the new United Nations Zero Waste advisory council, of which this year he was named vice president. In three more weeks he will be a father for the first time of a girl who will be baptized Ana, and his business is preparing to scale in 16 supermarkets in England, where he has operated since last year in three locations of the Lidl retail chain. For three and a half years, José Manuel and his wife have lived in the lively neighborhood of Hackney, in the northeast of the English capital. The Chilean chose England to expand his business, because one of his first allies, the detergent brand Unilever, is based in that city. And also because he sees that in Europe the regulations are more demanding in environmental matters. https://elpais.com/chile/2023-11-02/jose-manuel-moller-el-chileno-que-recibio-el-premio-campeon-de-la-onu-mas-que-el-reciclaje-es-mucho-mas-radical-cuestionar-el-consumo.html

You have to see how capricious the world is and how gamers do not treat releases that make the same mistakes equally. In the case of The Callisto Protocol, we focus on its launch errors and do not give it a pass, and on other occasions, such as the most recent Alan Wake 2, the community acts "as if it has not seen anything" and approves it. good to be treated with more leniency, without anyone reproaching Remedy for anything. But it's okay to say that Alan Wake 2 has been released quite broken, especially in some PC configurations where users have reported crashes and computer crashes every few minutes, without it being possible to play a normal game. Now, practically a week after its launch, the first aid is beginning to arrive in the form of patches, drivers, etc. Crashing non-stop and you can't play? As we told you, one of the most serious problems that Alan Wake 2 has caused on PC is the crashes and the impossibility of running it normally and playing a game calmly, without the sword of Damocles that everything will go to hell at the least moment. expected. If you are one of those who suffer from something like this and you have an NVIDIA card, you should know that just a few hours ago the official drivers were updated. So go update them right now because only with that new version is it possible to play with Alan Wake 2 in a stable way, without those shocks of the last few days and, apparently and proven, they fix all those problems in one fell swoop. Although there are things within the game that could not be fixed with an update to the official NVIDIA software suite. It was necessary for Remedy to act specifically by making one of those patches they usually call something like critical. And what do you urgently correct? Well, for example, the dialogues that changed language incomprehensibly, with moments in which one character spoke in Spanish and another in English, sequences in which the original video was loaded, with its audio for the American public, and things like that, it's not that They were very serious, but they were a bit disconcerting. An endless list of changes You just have to take a look at the list of changes in Alan Wake 2 with this patch to understand how the Remedy game had arrived in stores. Because not only do we have the typical correction of general bugs and errors, but also other tweaks that affect specific characters and missions. You can consult the list in the link below, but a button will serve as an example. In the mission "Invitation" they have already corrected the error that caused Saga to get stuck in the forest, or in "Casey", the stairs no longer hold the character and leave him hanging there. As we tell you, there are many things that have been touched on and that are going to leave Alan Wake 2 much better than what we were able to see on the first day on sale, last October 27. And as I said, one day we will guess the reason why, what one person is not allowed to do, someone else has a free time and no one seems offended. As with Alan Wake 2. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/alan-wake-2-solucionar-problemas/

The components that have dropped the most in price have been the RAM memory modules. A report has been published on which are the largest sellers of these components in 2022. The data shows that the market is controlled by Kingston with a 78% share. But, big brands such as Crucial, Corsair or G.Skill, among other prominent brands, do not appear on the list. We have seen how the price of RAM has fallen this year to truly ridiculous prices, to define them in some way. Now, 32GB kits cost the same as 16GB kits did about two years ago. Prices that come from a huge excess of supply and a very low demand. So much so that the main DRAM memory manufacturers agreed to a drastic downward adjustment in the production of this type of memory. Who are the main RAM memory manufacturers? If we ask you about some names of RAM memory manufacturers, there are several names that will come to mind instantly. These would be Corsair, Kingston, ADATA, Crucial, Team Group or Patriot. But, which of these are the most purchased by users? TrendForce has published a report showing which were the main RAM memory sellers in 2022. Although we are closing the year, this information refers to last year. This is normal, since collecting and tallying the data is quite complicated. The report highlights a 4.6% drop in sales overall compared to 2021. It may seem like bad data, but an even greater drop in sales is expected this year. This report highlights that Kingston is the largest memory seller with just over 78% market share in 2022. It may seem like an absurd figure, but it has been around 75-80% share for years. The second position goes to Ramaxel, a Chinese manufacturer that offers generic modules, with a 3.78% share. We have ADATA in third position with a 3.33% share. We are in fourth position with POWEV, a Chinese manufacturer that only sells in that country and has a 2.88% share. Finally, in fifth position we have Kimtigo, also a Chinese manufacturer, which has a 2.33% share. Patriot, Innodisk, Team Groupo and Apacer, other large RAM module manufacturers, have less than 1% share. There is a 4.15% remainder that would be occupied by other brands with shares less than 0.7%. https://hardzone.es/noticias/componentes/principales-fabridcantes-modulos-memoria-ram-ddr4-ddr5/
