For decades, E3 has been the stage par excellence where the main companies in the video game industry present their most exciting new products. We have witnessed epic moments and shocking revelations but now it is time to say goodbye. The world of video games has been in mourning since yesterday since the video game event par excellence has confirmed that it will no longer return for editions. This news has made us very sad, we are not going to lie to you, but this is not the time to regret. Forever with you, comrade Today, as a tribute to the most legendary video game event in history, we will review the five best conferences that have defined E3 over the years. These are: 5. E3 2016: Death Stranding Following his departure from Konami, Hideo Kojima returned to E3 in 2016 with his new studio, Kojima Productions. The conference was the setting for the reveal of "Death Stranding", a game that generated intrigue and expectation from the first moment. Kojima's presence on stage and the mysterious trailer left fans eager to find out more about this unique project. 4. E3 2015: Bethesda's first time In 2015, Bethesda took everyone by surprise by announcing its first E3 conference. The company unleashed an impressive array of titles, including the surprising reveal of "Fallout 4," which was released just a few months later. Bethesda's decision to hold its own conference set a new standard for other companies, showing how unexpected surprises can make a big impact on the audience. 3. E3 2013: total war Sony against Microsoft In 2013, Sony and Microsoft faced off in an epic battle for supremacy of the next generation of consoles. The Sony conference was interesting for its master marketing strategy. While Microsoft faced criticism for DRM restrictions and mandatory internet connection for Xbox One, Sony took the opportunity to present the PlayStation 4 as a more player-friendly alternative that allowed you to play second-hand games or games left by a friend. . The famous "This is how you share games on PS4" became a mantra, giving victory to Sony. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/cinco-conferencias-mas-legendarias-historia-e3/

You probably have a monitor, tablet, laptop, television, or any device with a screen and you don't remember how many inches it is. Furthermore, you no longer have the box and you cannot find the model of your equipment to search for it online. No problem. The easiest way to do this is with a simple ruler or tape measure, you won't need anything else. And it is the most reliable way that can exist, not even the details of the model itself that you may have seen on the internet, since sometimes they are wrong, or do not refer to your specific version. How do I know the inches of my screen? As I said, it's very easy. The first thing you will have to do is find something to measure it with. We recommend a flexible, plastic measuring tape to avoid accidentally scratching your screen. A metal or even plastic ruler could leave accidental marks, and we don't want that. Well, now that you have it, you just have to take the two opposite ends that you want, that is, diagonally, the upper right part and the lower left, for example. And draw the line from the beginning of the screen, do not count the edges, that is, only what the image reflects, not the entire frame. I leave you an image here in case it is not completely clear to you. The yellow line would measure 32 inches, which would be 32 inches. All right? We already have the centimeters that our screen measures, they can be 4 or 90, depending on whether you are measuring a smartphone (which you could also, although try to be exact) or a large television. Even the image of a projector, in case you want to know how many inches it can offer. Well, very well, we just have to convert the centimeters into inches, to do this we can simply use the Google converter, writing "convert cm into inches", and just by entering our value it will tell us the inches of our screen, so we will also know if they are real or not, since many times we buy a 13-inch tablet or laptop and it turns out that they are 12.8 or 13.2, and the difference can be noticed. The formula is simple, divide the length in cm by 2.531. In case you want to do it directly with your mobile calculator instead of searching on Google. And that's it, there's little else I can tell you, you already know how to calculate inches, and the reason why some are narrower, others more square, and yet the data doesn't add up. It will not depend on the area, but on its dimensions. A 2x2 square monitor will be a few inches smaller than a 4x1, yet the area will be the same. Hence, the UltraWide often have exaggerated inches and it does not seem to us that as many things fit on the screen as we would like. And you, did you know how it was calculated and what the screen ratio affects in its total inches? Well, I won't bother you anymore and I'll let you go measure all the equipment in your house. https://hardzone.es/noticias/perifericos/calcular-cuantas-pulgadas-pantalla-monitor/

Countdown to the end of 2023 and President Gabriel Boric enters the final stretch of his second year in La Moneda with several gestures at the age of 30, so reviled before he assumed power. It's another thing with the guitar, they say. The year ends with the agreement between Codelco and SQM, also with the energetic announcement of a bill to resolve the permit issue and, furthermore, with the Ministry of the Interior insisting that this is the Government that has processed the most law on security. The smell of Concerta can also be smelled in the decision on the part of the right to negotiate the pension reform. And if we want to be even more cynical, we have the news published by Ciper, in which it tells of the unknown meeting at the house of Pablo Zalaquett (UDI), where ministers Grau and Rojas approached positions with businessmen from the salmon industry. The kitchen is back! Impossible not to touch on the political event of 2023. In the recording of the Audios case, it was striking that lawyer Luis Hermosilla recounted details of when he was “head of the PC intelligence apparatus.” The leaders of that time have another version of Hermosilla's years in the party. The Senate is red hot. The Government and the ruling party are worried about what comes once the term of the current president of the Senate, Juan Antonio Coloma (UDI), ends. Nobody knows what will come next. And the Frente Amplio continues to receive attacks. This week was the Servel notification about the dissolution of the Comunes party. Giorgio Jackson, the most prominent leader of the Democratic Revolution, says goodbye to politics for an indefinite period. And in the bonus track of this edition: Senator Ricardo Lagos Weber tells us the firm about the right's willingness to negotiate in Congress. And we told it in July with some astonishment, but this week it was confirmed that Axel Kaiser is a presidential candidate from the extreme right. In the midst of the controversy over the regulations that will regulate transportation applications, the absence of the minister of the sector is striking. In Las Condes, meanwhile, some speak of the end of more than 30 years of UDI management in the municipality. Man of intelligence. “I was head of the secret intelligence apparatus of the Communist Party,” says Luis Hermosilla in the recording released last November by Ciper, which reveals his conversation with the lawyer Leonarda Villalobos and the owner of Factop, Daniel Sauer. This mention of his role in the PC's intelligence is used by Hermosilla to explain that they have to compartmentalize all the information they were handling in the Factop case, because "here we are making a mess that is a crime." Strange, to say the least. In the Communist Party they categorically deny that the lawyer was part of the community's intelligence, much less that he was “head of the clandestine CP intelligence apparatus.” https://www.elmostrador.cl/politica/2023/12/31/el-revival-concertacionista-de-la-moneda-hermosilla-y-sus-anos-de-espia-pc/

The rusty cat (Prionailurus rubiginosus) is the smallest member of the Felidae family that exists. Native to India and Sri Lanka, this tiny animal, 35 to 40 centimeters long and weighing approximately 1.6 kilos, competes in size only with the black-footed cat for the title of the smallest felid in the world. Its short, light gray hair with reddish tints has small rust-colored spots, a characteristic that gives it its common name. In Sri Lanka they are dispersed in tropical forests, while in India they are located in dry grasslands, mountains and open forests. Their diet is mainly based on rodents, birds, lizards, frogs and insects. It is an avid hunter and is capable of capturing its prey both on the ground and in the trees, where it is common to see them while they escape from their predators. The rusty cat's small, cute appearance hides a ferocious nature, as it is capable of quick, precise movements to effectively hunt prey up to three times its size. Curiosities of the smallest wild cat in the world Its elusive nature and small size make it difficult to obtain data on wild specimens, however, certain patterns are known thanks to the observation and study of members in captivity. The mating season is short-lived and the mating period is short, although it can be repeated several times in the same day. It is believed that the brevity is the result of an adaptation to avoid their predators, since they are extremely vulnerable during this period. Females prepare a small den in a secluded place to give birth to one or two cats per litter. The gestation period lasts 65 to 70 days and newborn puppies weigh approximately 60 to 77 grams. Rusty cats spray urine wherever they pass to mark their territory and warn other members of their species of their presence. They reach sexual maturity at 68 weeks, at which time they fully develop their distinctive rust-colored spotted pattern. Their lifespan in the wild is unknown, but there are records of members in captivity living up to 12 years. https://www.infobae.com/mascotas/2023/12/27/el-tamano-no-importa-cuanto-mide-el-gato-salvaje-mas-pequeno-del-mundo/

December 18 marks the anniversary of an indelible moment for Argentine soccer fans: the consecration of the Argentine National Team in the World Cup in Qatar. An achievement that resonated throughout the country and was not limited to the millions of fans; Also players, coaching staff and even the protagonists themselves fervently relived those days of glory, celebrating one year after that triumph that is inscribed in the history of national sports. The undisputed figure, Lionel Messi, starred in decisive moments throughout the tournament. After an unexpected defeat against Saudi Arabia and a hopeful speech, the Argentine star emerged in the match against Mexico, scoring a key goal that cleared the shadows of worry. Not only that, his rivalry on the field with great figures such as the Polish Robert Lewandowski and an episode of tension prior to the match with the Netherlands, placed La Pulga at the center of the World Cup atmosphere. The duel between Argentina and the Netherlands left an image that was recorded in the collective memory and spread like wildfire through international networks and media. At the end of that match a phrase was heard that became emblematic: “What are you looking at, fool? “Go over there, stupid.” These words, spoken in a moment of high tension, showed the passion and fervor with which that duel for a place in the semifinals was lived. As the days went by, new images emerged of that confrontation between Messi and Dutch defender Wout Weghorst. This time it was in the series released by Netflix, Captains of the World. The production, which allows for a more intimate view of events, included post-match scenes that added depth to the narrative of the iconic matchup. After the final whistle, Messi headed towards the locker room, accompanied and protected by Rodrigo De Paul, midfielder and close friend, who prevented direct contact with Weghorst. While the Dutchman waited at the entrance to the tunnel with the intention of greeting him, Messi passed him by. The tension increased and several teammates, including Lautaro Martínez, Lisandro Martínez and, surprisingly, Sergio Agüero, tried to mediate with the defender to reduce the hostility. However, Messi's irritation was palpable. Messi's diatribe, although censored by the television edition, was felt in the atmosphere. Later, with the waters calmer, Messi calmly but firmly expressed his discontent: "On the 19th, since he entered the game, he began to provoke us, shock us, tell us things, and that is not part of football." https://www.infobae.com/deportes/2023/12/31/messi-como-nunca-se-lo-vio-se-conocieron-imagenes-ineditas-del-historico-anda-pa-alla-bobo-a-weghorst-en-el-mundial-de-qatar/

The year 2023 was characterized by extreme events, such as heat waves or floods, within the framework of climate change that has already made it the warmest ever recorded, as reported by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) on November 30. These are phenomena that are also repeated in Chile, as demonstrated by the mid-year rains, which caused serious damage in the south of the country, or the intense temperatures already experienced in the central zone. The disasters also had a strong economic impact. The 20 most costly climate disasters of 2023 generated an economic impact of US$4,000 per person in the countries in which they occurred, including forest fires, droughts, floods or storms, concluded the report “Counting the Cost 2023: A year of climate breakdown ”, as reported by Bloomberg. On the list, Chile occupies 11th place, due to the June floods, and 14th due to forest fires. WMO report According to the WMO, greenhouse gas concentrations continue to increase, while sea surface temperatures and sea level rise break records and Antarctic sea ice reaches historic minimum extents. The report was prepared as a basis for the COP28 negotiations held this year in Dubai. “Greenhouse gas concentrations break all records. World temperatures are at historic highs. The rise in sea level is unprecedented. Antarctica's sea ice extent has never been so low before. This succession of sentences is a deafening cacophony of broken records,” said WMO Secretary-General Petteri Taalas. “They are not mere statistics. We risk missing the opportunity to save our glaciers and slow sea level rise. “We cannot return to the climate of the 20th century, but we must act now to limit the risks of an increasingly inhospitable climate in this century and beyond,” he declared. “Extreme weather events destroy lives and livelihoods every day. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that everyone is protected through early warning services,” he explained. Heat waves The interim version of the WMO report on the state of the global climate confirms that 2023 is on track to be the warmest year on record. Data collected until the end of October show that the current year was approximately 1.40 degrees Celsius (with an uncertainty margin of ±0.12 °C) above the reference value representative of the pre-industrial era (1850-1900 ). When comparing the year 2023 with 2016 and 2020, the warmest years to date, the difference is so important that, in all likelihood, the values that will be recorded in the last two months of the year will not have an impact on the classification. https://www.elmostrador.cl/cultura/ciencia-cultura/2023/12/31/el-cambio-climatico-se-hace-sentir-los-principales-eventos-extremos-de-2023/

The end of 2023 is approaching, and with it new changes to the Steam platform. We have already seen a news item today in which we reviewed the best-selling games of the year, as well as those that would have obtained the highest income. It seems that video games never go out of style. That is why Valve, the developer of Steam, wants to continue evolving with new and better changes to it. Which leads them to have to stop supporting various versions of Windows, where these can no longer be run. Is Steam saying goodbye to Windows 7 and 8? And yes, that's right. It is something that we have known all year, but it is not bad to remember it, especially with just a few days left until it happens. And the thing is, on January 1 the change will become effective and Steam will abandon the versions of Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, leaving its players in limbo, and forcing them to update their OS if you want to continue enjoying Steam. As they tell us on their website: «After that date, the Steam client will not run on those versions of Windows. To continue using Steam, users will need to upgrade to a newer version of Windows. That is, they would not be removing support and security updates from us, as happens on other occasions, leaving us to run it on our own, but rather we will not be able to do it directly, although some functions or games could continue working for a while, but with possible bugs and errors, that is, nothing feasible. And all this comes because of Google Chrome, a tool used in Steam and which will not allow these versions, it is not just a matter of Valve, which wants to force us to improve our PC. So nothing, if you have W7 or W8, it's time to renew, and well, which one of all? Well, the normal thing would be for you to go directly to the latest version, even though with Windows 10, for example, you could already play. However, Microsoft wants to end this system in 2025, so you would be using it for just over a year, only to have to renew it later. That is why we recommend going for W11 at least. You have a couple of days for it. Make a copy of your files, say goodbye to your icons, desktop wallpaper and functions... and format your PC to a new OS. New year, new life, right? Well, your PC too. This will help you not only be able to run Steam, but any other program you may have, since, behind one, another usually comes, and Windows 7 and 8 are already very old versions, although they work well and we are used to them, but they are no longer They allow us to renew and add functions that we can achieve with newer systems. And you, are you one of those who still use these versions? If I could, I would continue with XP, the system that I liked the most, so I won't tell you more. But it is what it is, we have to renew, and in this case it is mandatory if we are gamers and want to continue having fun. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/1-enero-steam-dejara-funcionar-versiones-windows/

When we assemble a PC, we must not only take into account what our needs are to avoid and replace components at the first opportunity, but we also have to analyze their format and dimensions to avoid operating problems. One of the heaviest and largest elements of any desktop PC is found in the graphics card. As new versions are launched, their weight and size increase, with the motherboard and the back of the device being the only attachment points. Sometimes, depending on the card model, it is more than enough, but not always. The ideal in all cases is to use 3 anchor points and not 2 like most PCs. In this way, the voltage that can be generated in the PCIe port where we connect it is considerably reduced. In addition, we also prevent it from coming down completely in the event of any sudden movement. If we add an additional support, if we mani[CENSORED]te the interior of the equipment vertically and we drop any element on the graphics or we lean on it more than necessary, we will avoid problems with the PCIe connection. Graphics card mounts are a very economical device compared to any other component, since they do not include any type of circuitry. In addition, the number of options is very wide and varied so that design lovers do not see the design that has cost them so much to create frustrated when assembling the equipment. Best supports for large graphics cards The manufacturer Uyubano offers us a GPU support that we can adapt from a minimum height of 70 mm to a maximum of 120 mm. Includes a level to check that the equipment is perfectly level when installing. It is made of aluminum and has a magnet on the bottom to hold perfectly to the PC case. It is available in black and metallic. Another interesting option, although more voluminous, is found in the manufacturer upHere with GH05K. This manufacturer offers us a support for graphics cards in black that has a variable height between 28 and 200 mm and that we can rotate 360 degrees to adapt it to the space we have available on the computer. At the bottom, there is a non-slip pad along with a magnet. Using a support for a graph does not mean losing the design that has cost so much to create, since we can also find supports with RGB lighting like the one offered by DeepCool with the GH-01 model. This support is made of aluminum with a plastic base that allows us to hide the cables. Support a maximum weight of 5 Kg, it has a sawtooth adjustment mechanism and is adjustable to 3 heights: 3.3, 6.7 and 10 mm. https://hardzone.es/noticias/tarjetas-graficas/soportes-tarjetas-graficas-pesadas-grandes/

One of the main conclusions that were drawn preliminarily about the plebiscite is that the response prepared by the Republican Party and Chile Vamos failed to convince the vast majority of citizens and now they are paying the cost of having failed in a second attempt for a new Constitution. However, with them, for the “For”, there were also Democrats and Yellows who, with the idea of fighting for a political center, were electorally defeated and – it is commented in Parliament – they were closer to the right than to the center , and with an uncertain future. Both Democrats and Yellows were part of the pact in Congress – baptized Agreement for Chile – that enabled the new constituent process after the Constitutional Convention proposal was rejected, but they were not part of the electoral race for the Council that would draft the text. That left them out of writing anything, but it did not prevent them from rowing in the direction of “In favor” like the Republican Party and Chile Vamos. Now that the option they supported was defeated, they have the complex task of locating themselves in the center for an electorate that links them to the right and facing the municipal elections of 2024. After the triumph of the “Against” option, Senator Ximena Rincón avoided acknowledging defeat, as did the other parties that opted for that option. Rincón said, after learning the results of the plebiscite, that “the great center of the country was not represented in this constitutional debate and did not feel represented by the parties,” and he did not refer to any political cost that would generate losses, on the contrary. He maintained that “the extremes have clearly lost, there is no refoundation of Chile as some wanted.” The responsibility for the second constitutional failure and the political costs to pay have generated problems among the opposition parties, however, the general secretary of Democrats, Matías Walker, affirms that his community is “calm with their decision.” The senator explains that they were aware that “‘In favor’ was an uphill option, but we wanted to be consistent, because we signed the Agreement with Chile and the bases were respected.” Walker believes that this was a second opportunity to “approve a Constitution with a democratic origin,” but he also thinks that “it is true that the Republican advisors, in particular, made many mistakes in the first stage of the process.” Now, he also maintains that “the left made a mistake of not having taken advantage of the opportunity to make observations on the text, to have improved it.” In Congress, representatives of the political center see Democrats and Yellows complicated with the results. They affirm that Democratic deputies preferred that the party provide freedom of action and not appear too playful with the “For” option. https://www.elmostrador.cl/noticias/pais/2023/12/30/democratas-y-amarillos-mordiendo-el-polvo/

If 2020 was the year nature "healed," 2023 was the year, supposedly, of nature's revenge, with killer whales sinking yachts, tayassuidae destroying golf courses, and a feisty sea otter stealing surfboards. . According to the po[CENSORED]r story, the animals are fed up and (finally) rebel against human domination. Of course, it is not like that. These bugs do normal animal things, but they bother humans. Peccaries, small wild boar-like creatures native to the southwestern United States, destroyed a golf course in Sedona, Arizona, because they were searching for worms. Orcas in the Strait of Gibraltar played with rudders for fun. And otter 841, the adult female that repeatedly bothered canoeists and surfers in Santa Cruz, California, may have associated people with food. When humans view these acts as intentional, we are also engaging in behavior typical of our species: telling stories that, while not literally accurate, capture a broader truth. For example, as climate change makes life on Earth increasingly difficult and unpredictable, it may appear that nature is "fighting back." As a result, the long-held belief that humans reign over nature and that our needs take precedence over those of all other animals appears to be changing, says Geoffrey Whitehall, a professor of political science at Acadia University in Canada. "We tend to reserve the initiative for humans," says Whitehall; "But it is clear that animals have different interests than ours, and when we recognize that. When we start to believe that other animals matter, many interesting conversations open up." One of the most delicate is the wealth disparity. "Many people see the wealthy elite as responsible for many of the situations we face environmentally," says Monika Wieland Shields, director of the Orca Behavior Institute in Friday Harbor, United States. "Imagining an orca uprising treats our feelings with humor. It keeps us from feeling completely hopeless." The problem with this type of humor, however, is that it alleviates our anxiety without making us reflect on our own contribution to these problems, says Whitehall. Whether we're talking about wildlife or our fellow human beings, the oppressed don't need us to cheer them on from the sidelines. They need us to get in the game, for example by reducing our carbon footprint, using fewer resources and enacting wildlife protection laws. "Animals are acting strangely and we have to do it too, which would require changing our way of life and even acting against our immediate interests," says Whitehall; "being able to play golf in a desert is something I would be willing to give up." Acts of resistance Picaris are an unattractive icon for any type of conservation campaign. Known in English as javelinas [javalinas] for their spear-shaped fangs, these odorous creatures weigh an average of 15 kilos and travel in intimidating groups. "People, especially in Texas, talk about them like they're giant rats," says Adam Johnson, an anthropologist at the University of North Carolina in the United States who studies human-animal conflict. https://www.nationalgeographic.es/animales

If something has characterized DS Automobiles models since their inception, it is the treatment of light, both to ensure the highest level of safety when driving at night or in circumstances of low visibility, and to generate lighting effects that create an unmistakable signature and spectacular, which has become one of the great hallmarks of the brand. Like many of the features that distinguish DS Automobiles in the premium universe, this special attention to the headlights takes its inspiration directly from the legendary DS. In 1967, that legendary model debuted one of its most memorable innovations: directional headlights. Thanks to a complex network of mechanical elements and piano strings, it was possible for the auxiliary headlights to rotate with the wheels to illuminate the inside of the curves, while the main projectors incorporated an automatic height corrector, to keep the light beam always at the same level. same level. This device allows you to avoid dazzling drivers traveling in the opposite direction. Since then, the technology has evolved and the different variations in height and rotation angle of the projectors are carried out by means of small electric motors. In addition, the lights turn on both the high and low beams. At the same time, the use of cameras and sensors allows the intensity of the light beam to be perfectly regulated, to adapt to both the road and the presence of other motorists. Always ensuring maximum visibility without glare. In just a few years, the DS Automobiles range has gone from equipping halogen headlights to modern lights with a Full LED system, including Xenon headlights. In terms of luminosity, and therefore security, these systems have no point of comparison. The light from a halogen headlight cannot withstand the confrontation with that of a Full LED projector, both in terms of luminosity and visual comfort, given that the colors of its light beams are in tune with human vision, therefore which produces less visual fatigue. In 2015, the DS 5 launched the brand's lighting signature with projectors that incorporated LED and Xenon technologies, as well as sequential turn signals. With a treatment reminiscent of precious stone inserts. On board the current DS 3 and DS 4, this approach has evolved to the MATRIX LED VISION headlights, which evoke a series of jewels that give a modern and elegant air to the light signature. In addition, they give the possibility of driving with the lights at maximum power without worrying about dazzling the vehicle in front or the one approaching in the opposite direction. https://noticias.autocosmos.cl/2023/12/29/hagase-la-luz-ds-automobiles-y-sus-tecnologias-de-iluminacion

Tennis player Rafa Nadal is ready for his return after almost a year of absence due to injury. His return will be in the Brisbane tournament, where he will not only compete in the individual category, but will also participate in the doubles team with his coach, Marc López. Nadal and López, who have a joint record of five titles, will debut this December 31 in doubles, with a schedule yet to be determined. On the other hand, Nadal will begin his path in the individual category on January 2. Collaboration on the doubles circuit is not new for Nadal and López, who have obtained victories in tournaments such as Doha and Indian Wells, and won the gold medal at the 2016 Rio Olympic Games. The organization of the doubles tournament Brisbane provided them with an invitation to participate in the doubles draw after the approval of the Manacorí team. Marc López, officially retired after the Madrid Masters 1,000 in May 2022, temporarily returns to competition. This decision is strategic, as it allows Nadal to adjust his game and physical form by having his coach as a court partner. Nadal, known for his competitive spirit and his desire to maintain a high level of tennis, faces the challenge of returning to the rhythm of competition after the break due to his injury. It is not the first time that a tennis player returns to competition in the doubles table after an injury. For example, Carlos Alcaraz, after suffering an ankle injury in 2021, planned to participate in the ATP 250 in Umag with his coach Juan Carlos Ferrero, although that partnership did not materialize due to anti-doping control regulations. You may be interested: Nadal's debut in Brisbane will be earlier than expected and in doubles Nadal's participation in Brisbane is a key step in his preparation for the Australian Open, which will be held between January 14 and 28. His return is one of the most anticipated by tennis fans and experts, hoping to see him regain his form and fight for the titles that he has previously won throughout his career. With an eye on the Australian Open Nadal, winner of 20 Grand Slams, is one of the most successful athletes in Spain and his return to competitions is always an event. Time on the court will be essential to evaluate his physical and technical condition, especially after the recovery period. With his sights set on Melbourne, Nadal's performance in Brisbane will set the tone for his 2023 season. The tennis world awaits Rafa Nadal's first shots on the Brisbane court, where he has demonstrated his greatness on countless occasions.

It is something that now happened to our compatriot Isabel Allende. The writer expressed her “absolute” opposition to the book ban, after the inclusion of two of her novels in a list of literary works removed this year from school classrooms in a Florida county, in the southern United States. “It is shameful and dangerous in a democracy,” the author warned in a written statement sent to EFE this Thursday. Schools in Florida's Orange County removed a total of 673 titles from their classrooms this year, including the Chilean's most celebrated novel, The House of the Spirits (1982), along with Beyond the Winter (2017), books that address, among others, issues related to sexuality. The withdrawal of the works is due to state law HB 1467, promoted and enacted by the governor of Florida, Republican Ron DeSantis, who is also a presidential candidate for that party. The rule, which came into force in July 2022, limits literary works that have sexual or LGBTQ+ allusions in school classrooms. CHILEAN WRITER PRESENTS PERFORMANCE ON THE GAY CONVERSION THERAPY HE SUFFERED AS A CHILD A new edition of the Teatro a Mil Festival is coming and one of the highlights is “Testosterona”, by Chilean writer Cristian Alarcón, recent winner of the Alfaguara Novel Prize. The work addresses a difficult personal episode of the author: between the ages of six and eight he underwent testosterone injections, in order to “convert” him heterosexual, by decision of his parents. “They were terrified of having a faggot son, a delicate child, a little prince,” was one of the things he told me, in addition to telling me some details of his work. https://www.elmostrador.cl/cultura/cultivate/2023/12/30/allende-ee-uu-y-censura/

If you suffer symptoms of depression or know someone who is going through it, today we bring you a video game that helps combat it. Or so says a German study, which concluded that the effects of this title for Nintendo Switch could improve the disease by almost half. If you are expecting something striking, that you didn't know about and that you didn't know existed, I have to tell you no, it is a much more common and famous game than you think. This is Mario himself, in the Super Mario Odyssey version. Super Mario Odyssey and depression? Yes, although it is such a common video game, a study by German scientists would have carried out various tests with a group of people for 6 weeks, trying to see the benefits of playing Mario Odyseey at times when they suffered from depression. The conclusion of the study revealed that people suffering from this disease would have improved significantly while using the Nintendo Switch console with the game, something greater than even programs dedicated especially for this. The study is very revealing, and the results are really real and work, however, is it something from the mythical plumber's video game?. Or, on the contrary, can playing with a console evade us from other problems and help cure symptoms of depression regardless of the game? It has been shown on several occasions that video games can help people with many problems, so this study does not surprise us, and we are happy to know this data. Many times negative things have been attributed to these, and this is not always the case, as we can see today. In the following link we can see the complete report where they tell us more information about how it was carried out. In summary we can see how 46 people with depression participated in the study, of which 14 played Mario, 16 used a specific program, and another 16 carried out regular treatments, like those received by any person with this disease, both at the psychotherapy level. as pharmacotherapy. The result gave a clear advantage to the first group, thus positioning a game above any common program or treatment. Without having to take pills for it. In any case, it is indicated that the tests carried out are not totally conclusive, and that further research will have to be done with larger groups and more specific tests. In any case, despite not knowing the exact improvement of this test, it is clear that if you suffer from depression, playing Mario Odyssey will at least not harm you, and anything that helps you is welcome. And you, what do you think of these results? Do you think that a video game can help a person's mental health? Have you ever used this method as therapy for an illness? Has it helped you? Leave us a comment with your experiences and opinions. https://hardzone.es/noticias/juegos/videojuego-reduce-depresion-super-mario-odyssey/

Just a few days ago, AMD showed us its new laptop processors, among which, as the star, we had the Ryzen 8945HS, a CPU that has been seen in a Geekbench of an ASUS team, the first of the brand with this component. It is likely that it will not be the only computer that we will see during these days that equips the new AMD, however, it can serve as a first guide on its score and real characteristics, so let's take a look at it. First ASUS with AMD Ryzen 8945HS Apparently, a Geekbench leak has shown us a device from the ASUS company with AMD's new top-of-the-range processor, the Ryzen 8945HS. This CPU would be made up of 8 cores and 16 threads with a speed that would reach 5.2 GHz, as well as a TDP of between 35W and 54W. The new laptop that ASUS will present is the ROG Zephyrus G14, which will not only carry this new AMD component but also the integrated AMD Radeon 780M graphics, within a computer with a 14-inch screen. In the image we can see how this CPU behaves at a base speed of 4.0 GHz, reaching that maximum 5.2 GHz, with a 24 MB cache. All this on a computer with Windows 11 Pro operating system and 32 GB of DDR5 RAM. It seems that ASUS is still committed to collaborating with AMD, something that is going well for them at the moment. We will see how it behaves with this new processor, which generates a not inconsiderable score of 2,330 points with a single core and a total of 12,906 in multicore. For now the company has not announced its line of ROG Zephyrus laptops, where we could see other computers with the rest of AMD's new processors, however, they have revealed that they will have an event at the CES in Las Vegas that takes place between the January 9 and 12, called Transcendence. It is likely that there we can learn more details about everything the company has prepared for us for 2024, including these teams. So, for now, we will have to wait. There is nothing left for this great event where we will learn more details about the world that awaits us, at a technological level, for 2024. There are too many companies and interesting news that we will see during those days, so we will have a lot to analyze. Next year doesn't look bad at all, we'll see if it doesn't disappoint us. In summary, the processors that AMD presented to us a few days ago are already in operation, and we know that, at least, ASUS will incorporate them in its next range of laptops. And it won't be the only one. So we will be waiting for any other leak or official communication to be able to see them in operation, although it seems that, based on the first results, they will leave a good taste in our mouths. And you, what do you think of them? Do you think it's good that ASUS continues betting on AMD? Will it have the expected performance for a really competitive price? Or will they end up being less successful than what is expected of them? https://hardzone.es/noticias/procesadores/conocemos-rendimiento-primer-asus-amd-ryzen-8945hs/

After spending 32 hours on the run, on the night of Wednesday, November 22, members of the Investigative Police (PDI) arrested the former mayor of Algarrobo, José Luis Yáñez (UDI), accused of being the protagonist of a millionaire embezzlement that affects said commune of the Valparaiso Region. From there, and after being formalized by prosecutor Claudia Perivancich for crimes of embezzlement of public funds and bribery, the former community leader has remained in preventive detention, although he recently hired a new lawyer with a view to regaining his freedom. As La Tercera was able to verify, this is the criminal Ramón Sepúlveda, recognized by the representation of the mayor of Recoleta, Daniel Jadue, and by three people involved in the case of Karina Oliva. Among them, he defends the former electoral administrator of the former candidate for regional governor, Martín Miranda.

The case José Luis Yáñez was arrested on the old road to Cartagena, commune of San Antonio. And as has already become evident, the Prosecutor's Office is investigating him for fraudulent transfers that the municipal treasurer, Belén Carrasco, would have made and that would reach $1,069,383,196. According to the prosecutor in charge, the former mayor was the one who would have facilitated this situation, in the first place, carrying out a restructuring within the municipality, appointing Carrasco in charge of the treasury. Furthermore, it has been established that Yáñez and Carrasco maintained a relationship during the same period in which the fraudulent transfers were made. That is, between March 2022 and November 2023. https://www.latercera.com/nacional/noticia/exalcalde-de-algarrobo-udi-ficha-a-abogado-de-daniel-jadue-y-de-administrador-electoral-de-karina-oliva/7PAJCUJW3FDI3PSKZMKYLKNFCM/
