A few days ago NiceHash was updated to unlock NVIDIA LHR and thus obtain more performance in Ethereum mining. That this measure has been circumvented has not been liked by NVIDIA, who claims to have corrected it. It appears that the GeForce 512.95 WHQL driver re-enables LHR, causing the power in the Ethereum mining process to drop to half again. The NVIDIA LHR solution was introduced to the RTX 30 Series to prevent it from being used for Ethereum mining. A solution developed after complaints from users who claimed that gaming graphics are used for other purposes. It seems that NVIDIA has managed to patch LHR in its latest drivers It was at the end of last week when NiceHash updated its Ethereum mining software. The update adds a system that skips virtually all of NVIDIA LHR v3. This mechanism is in the 8 GB RTX 3050 and the 12 GB RTX 3080. As indicated, they had managed to get the graphics card to give 90% of the possible hash rate for Ethereum mining. The latest NVIDIA driver, the GeForce 512.95 WHQL, what it does is re-establish a limit on mining. It seems to "reset" LHR and revert to 50-70% clipped hash rate on all graphics cards. Although this is positive, the truth is that it will not keep those who are dedicated to mining Ethereum awake at night. As simple as not updating the drivers and that's it. Who has detected that LHR has been restored has been the youtuber Juliano Caju. He has reported on his YouTube channel that the new NVIDIA GeForce 512.95 driver cuts back on mining power. With the RTX 3060 he was getting a rate of 46 MH/s, which is not bad at all. Later, after updating the controller, the power becomes just over 25 MH/s with the nbminer software. Although it is a solution, it is clearly not a great solution either. Simply by not updating the drivers, the miners can continue with their tasks without problems. This affects more the occasional miner who, in addition to mining, uses his equipment to play. The only real solution is Ethereum 2.0, and there's nothing left NVIDIA can try to put as many gates into the field as it wants, that there is no 100% safe way to limit Ethereum mining. The only solution is not in the hands of NVIDIA, but in the hands of the Ethereum Foundation. Work has been going on for years to migrate Ethereum from proof-of-work (PoW) consensus to proof-of-stake (PoS). This means that much less hardware is needed for the generation of blocks and, therefore, less energy consumption. But not everything is so pretty in Ethereum 2.0. Access to be a validator node will require certain hardware and at least 32 ETH. It is alleged that this can generate a lot of centralization, which many do not like. The second problem is security, which is considerably reduced by moving to a system that makes "cheating" less expensive. In addition, the umpteenth delay for the software deployment for Ethereum 2.0 has recently been indicated. It seems that there are still many problems when segmenting the blockchain. Nodes that do not communicate, information that is duplicated and different stability and security problems have forced a new delay in its launch.

There is no doubt that the next generation of NVIDIA graphics cards, the RTX 40, will increase their consumption. At the same time we know that the higher the consumption, the more heat. So there is a clear interest on the part of certain users to use refrigeration more efficiently. Well, everything indicates that the cooling of the NVIDIA RTX 40 will be that of the RTX 3090 Ti. Which we remember is the graphics hardware for a home computer with the highest consumption to date. New graphics card designs are more efficient per watt consumed, this has been the general rule for generations. However, this does not mean a reduction in consumption. Since there is a very clear demand for more and more powerful graphics cards. However, in that aspect the RTX 3090 Ti has disappointed a bit and the RTX 40 with Lovelace architecture is expected to be more efficient. Of course, graphics card manufacturers are going to find themselves with a launch very close in time between the end point of one generation and the beginning of another. Well, everything indicates that the cooling systems such as heat sinks and water blocks in the RTX 40 could be those of the RTX 3090 Ti. Do the RTX 40 and the RTX 3090 Ti share cooling? When manufacturing new hardware components, manufacturing efficiency is extremely important. This implies the fact of having to recycle parts from one design to another to reduce costs and reduce the time of deployment to the market. And it is here we enter an interesting point, since the rumors spoke that the RTX 40 would not recycle elements of the RTX 3090 Ti. Our point of view? Well, those rumors make no sense. Since these cooling systems are designed for the consumption of the new PCI Express 5.0 connector and it would be nonsense to go back to the drawing board. Well, everything indicates that the experience that NVIDIA and its partners have gained with the RTX 3090 Ti will be used in the cooling of the RTX 40. This not only makes sense in terms of recycling the PCB from one design to another, but also the placement and distribution of other elements. We have to take into account that the consumption will be somewhat better, although from here we do not doubt that we could see a version in the form of a lower model in the range with a consumption close to 450 W and that recycles components of the most powerful of the RTX 30. The important thing is that the fact that the PCB is the same means that elements are with the same organization. This allows the heat sinks and water blocks on the RTX 40 and RTX 3090 Ti to be the same. That is, manufacturers do not have to redesign anything to keep their NVIDIA RTX 40 graphics cards fresh. Which would be the key for the launch of the next generation to have been brought forward.

Many users, when they buy a processor, look for it to have overlocking capacity to increase its performance in the future if necessary. It seems that Intel has found a way to increase performance without increasing frequencies. By optimizing Intel software, a performance improvement of up to 40% would have been achieved. Currently, we are approaching the limit of silicon before certain processes take place that can alter the work that the processor does. This makes reducing the size of the transistors and increasing both the IPC and the frequency more and more difficult. This is why Intel has been starting to pay more attention to the software section. Significant performance increase in Intel processors Without much noise, this same year Intel has acquired the Israeli company Granulate. This company was founded in 2018 and already Intel in 2019 began to collaborate with this company. A few months ago they acquired it for an amount of 650 million dollars. Granulate is a company specializing in software optimization that can reduce costs for customers. According to the company, under certain workloads there may be a performance improvement of up to x5 times. As is logical, after the acquisition of the company, they have prioritized the development of solutions for their own needs. During the VisiON conference held a short time ago, Intel released some information about its plans regarding software optimization. The company has used many of Granulate's solutions, even releasing a free tool. Intel's gProfiler tool is intended to analyze and see where the bottlenecks are. This tool is designed for Data Centers and other massive and advanced computing facilities. The tool, after analyzing the structure, finds where there are performance problems and thus optimizations can be made. Based on information from Intel, software optimization on Java or Ruby workloads, CPU usage can be reduced by up to 30% without changing code. We are talking about a notable reduction in the workload, which leads to a reduction in costs and energy consumption. Intel indicates that in third generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, with this tool, the use of the processor can be improved by up to 40%. Will this reach the end user? Obviously, we are all interested in having extra performance without the need to do anything. The truth is that it seems quite difficult, at least for now, to end up reflecting on the end user. We must be clear that this solution is designed for advanced workloads. While this is positive in many respects, it gives the impression that the consumer user is being forgotten by Intel. We must remember that about a month ago Intel should have released drivers for its new graphics cards and at the moment, no trace and no news. The launch of the Intel Arc 3 graphics has been a disaster and the Arc 5 and Arc 7 have been delayed without further data. The release of Intel XeSS, the upscaling technology that must compete with NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR, has also been delayed.

Chairs, like the hardware world in general, are going up in price. It is true that certain novelties and improvements are being implemented, but it is becoming more and more difficult to innovate. For this reason and based on a twist to the concept of gaming chair Thermaltake and Porsche have launched a new model that until now is the most expensive in the world costing a whopping 1,300 euros. This is the most expensive gaming chair ever made. This chair is not totally groundbreaking in concept, but rather continuous because it respects what other models already do, but it has features that increase the price and, of course, exclusivity and the brand are also paid for. What makes it different? Thermaltake Argent E700: craftsmanship defines the most expensive gaming chair Inspiration comes from different points of view. Rarely does one person manage to create something truly different and evolve an industry, so Thermaltake has enlisted a contemporary artist, an indigenous musician, and a basketball player to come together with the Porsche team to bring forth a different kind of chair. . But more than that, the final result could be summed up exclusively as such and although the most premium materials on the market have been implemented within leather, aluminum and metal, is it really worth the 1,300 euros that the brand asks for? We start with genuine leather based on high quality ergonomic leather that will mold and cover a high density foam with 143.3 lbs/ft3, where both materials are supported by an aerospace grade aluminum and metal frame. This is followed by a class 4 piston and wheels made of high-quality PU with a diameter of 3 inches. To finish this section we cannot ignore the base with handles in the purest racing bucket style, something totally new. These are not data in general that we have not seen in other gaming chairs, but here everything gets a little more interesting, since the settings are its strong point as well as the dimensions they support. Adjustments for the best posture The chair is divided into three parts that are adjustable: backrest, headrest and armrests. The first is undoubtedly the great beneficiary of this design, since it can be configured in three different angles: 107°/113°/119°/126°, which are accompanied by a vertical adjustment of the height of the headrest, very inspired by in Porsche cars and that is something that should be a standard today in the world of chairs, both office and gaming. We end up with a 4D armrest with a novel adjustment system that hasn't been shown. Another of the strong points is its supported measurements, since it will support people between 170 cm and 190 cm with a maximum weight of 150 Kg. Finally, and as we can see in its presentation video, the most expensive gaming chair in the world will have Multiple colors available: Glacier White, Space Gray, Storm Black, Ocean Blue, Racing Green, Saddle Brown, Sanga Yellow, Flame Orange, and Turquoise. What has not been revealed is its arrival date in stores, but given its presentation it should not take too long.

"There are significant decrease figures regarding the acts of violence in the area, with different data. The cases associated with rural violence have decreased by 85%. There are disaggregated data, but when I talk about this it is in general terms regarding the crimes under which records are kept in the framework of this conflict". With those words, the presidential delegate of Biobío, Daniela Dresdner, addressed the constitutional measure that currently governs the provinces of Arauco and Biobío. In fact, in order to address the scope, on Friday she held a meeting with high-ranking Carabineros, from the PDI, with the head of Defense, representatives of the regional government and parliamentarians from the area, according to El Sur. Dresdner assured that the continuity of the measure beyond June 16 is under evaluation. To do this, it seeks to engage parliamentarians in the area to cast their vote before a possible extension that must be approved by Congress. It is worth mentioning that only seven of the 16 legislators arrived at the appointment. Along these lines, the delegate maintained that "all the parliamentarians with whom we spoke are available to support this extension of the state of emergency. As a government, it is a path that we are analyzing." For example, Senator Gastón Saavedra (PS) stated that "the ruling party, as those of us who support the President of the Republic are called, are going to deliver our votes. Whoever does not do so calls into question their participation in the Government. with all that it means, sometimes you have to dance with pleasant music, other times it's difficult and at times like this you see the value of political alliances". Deputy Eric Aedo (DC) pointed out that "we support the security and order forces, we also support the state of emergency." Meanwhile, from the same party, Joanna Pérez indicated that "we must have a different coordination on this issue, with the police and also that all the powers are there, to take care of the real problems we have. There is talk of investment for the area, but it is insufficient for the modernization of the province, and the State is not prepared to combat all the problems". From the other side, Senator Sebastián Keitel (Evópoli), stated that "it is relevant to maintain the state of emergency, and given the lack of tools that the police have, we must see how we can contribute from Parliament, and from the Executive, talk with the correct language: we have terrorism in the area. We must not confuse the words, since we are talking about terrorism here and we must highlight the delegate's invitation to summon us all to the table, but there is still a lot of work to do, since that if we don't talk about terrorism, we won't be able to move forward. Lastly, congressman Sergio Bobadilla (UDI) lamented that the government "does not use all the tools it has to repress terrorism." In his opinion, the Armed Forces "need the support to end this scourge. Proof of this is that we have a limited state of emergency and we should have a state of siege. That is the underlying problem, we have a government that does not believe in the tools provided by the law and there is terrorism in the macrozone." https://www.emol.com/noticias/Nacional/2022/06/04/1063076/delegada-dresdner-estado-excepcion.html

Livestock and the environment work as a perfect cocktail to unleash in the Congress of Deputies one of those cultural battles that are stirred by the smell of elections. It happened in the past elections in Castilla y León on behalf of the macro-farms and this Tuesday, with the Andalusian appointment already looming, it reappeared in the parliamentary arena, now with the special protection granted to the wolf as a reason. For the fifth time so far this legislature, the PP took the matter to Parliament, this time in the form of a bill for the "conservation of the wolf", whose fundamental purpose in practice was to repeal the prohibition of hunting it approved by the Government last September. As in all previous attempts, the PP ran into the refusal of the left. In return, it led to one of those ideological clashes in which Vox's unleashed verb always stands out and, with it, the inevitable brawl. It was the wolf, but it was much more than the wolf. The right tried again to fix the idea that the Government is committed to a "demonization of livestock", in the words of the po[CENSORED]r deputy Milagros Marcos, when not directly to "destroy Spain", according to the always more risqué diagnosis of a member of Vox, Ángel López Maraver in this case. This is where part of the debate ended up, in which the statements made months ago by the Minister of Consumption, Alberto Garzón, against the macro-farms, which gave so much play to the right in the Castilla y León campaign, emerged again. Marcos, in his defense of the initiative, argued that autonomous communities and rural organizations reject the new wolf protection regulations. He pointed out that in the last year there have been 14,000 attacks on cattle, "40 a day," and that the po[CENSORED]tion of the species "has increased by 142 herds in 10 years," a figure that was allowed to be linked to the disappearance of 80,000 farms. ranchers. His account was dramatic at times. “Cattle ranchers cry helplessly and live with their hearts in their mouths,” he assured. The po[CENSORED]r deputy, from Palencia, referred to her own experience: "The other day I went for a run and I found ten wolves." And she concluded: "Who should we protect more, the wolf or the people?" No one put more effort into refuting the PP than Juantxo López de Uralde, the former Greenpeace activist who now acts as the green spokesperson for United We Can. When only eight months have elapsed since the ban on hunting wolves, López de Uralde argued, it is “absolutely impossible that the effects” described by the PP deputy have occurred. The environmentalist deputy maintained that the po[CENSORED]tion of wolves in Spain is stagnant and minimized the damage they cause to livestock by ensuring that the victims of their attacks do not add up to more than 0.004% of the total number of cattle. For these cases, he insisted, the Administration has created a compensation line to which around 1.5 million euros were allocated last year. The PP's arguments found an echo in deputies from communities with a strong livestock presence. One of the most furious critics of the Government, Isidro Martínez Oblanca, from Foro Asturias, placed the ban on wolf hunting among the "great misdeeds" of Pedro Sánchez. But also a regular ally of the Executive, the Cantabrian regionalist José María Mazón, supported the PP proposal with unusual vehemence: “Since September in Cantabria there have been 506 attacks with 690 dead cattle. It is one thing to protect the wolf and another to allow them to reach their villages, enter their farms and kill their cattle”. The PNV did not support the PP proposal because it considered that it imposed a regulation on the autonomous communities, although its deputy Joseba Agirretxea agreed that measures are necessary to further protect ranchers. Insults from the extreme right The debate was being intense, without reaching provocations or personal attacks, until Vox appeared. If United We Can had staged its most accredited environmentalist, the extreme right brought out Ángel López Maraver, former president of the Spanish Hunting Federation. His first words wanted to be lyrical: "This morning, at dawn, in those first lights that wake up the wren and the archentor, while many of your lordships from this social-communist government were still wrinkling the sheets, the wolf has killed again". After the lira, the sword: López Maraver called the Vice President of Ecological Transition, Teresa Ribera, “Teresita Rojo” and the members of United We Can “carpet ecolojetas”. The government bench reacted indignantly. “Haven't you been educated? Haven't they told you that you shouldn't be insulted?” Socialist Omar Anguita stirred. “We cannot normalize the insult,” López de Uralde protested, asking the Table for protection. This is how they usually end what they call cultural battles. https://elpais.com/clima-y-medio-ambiente/2022-05-24/el-pp-fracasa-en-su-intento-en-el-congreso-de-recuperar-la-caza-del-lobo.html

It is the version manufactured in Argentina of the successful Japanese truck. At the beginning of this year, Nissan Argentina confirmed that the Navara that is produced at the Santa Isabel plant, and that is marketed there as a frontier, will also reach the markets of Colombia and Chile, which until now are supplied from Aguascalientes, in Mexico. . The reasons for this change are industrial and have to do with the Nissan NEXT plan, which seeks to "streamline capacity and streamline operations, prioritize core markets and focus on core models and technologies." Until now, the trans-Andean plant was underutilized, producing only for Brazil and Argentina, while the Mexican plant is at full capacity. However, as Chile and Colombia were Euro 6 emission markets, Santa Isabel had to be refurbished in order to meet the technical requirements of the new markets, including more people and the ability to assemble cleaner engines. The new Navarra For now, Nissan has just presented the new Frontier/Navara in Argentina, which is the same one that had already been updated globally at the end of 2020 and had been arriving in Chile since the beginning of 2021. The brand tells us that the different prototypes have traveled different landscapes and territories in Brazil and Argentina in a testing phase of 220 thousand kilometers, with river crossings and winding roads, and temperatures that ranged from -30 to +50 degrees Celsius, and They are ready to go on sale. "During this entire stretch, Nissan specialists in various disciplines tested durability, sound, fuel consumption, comfort, stability and suspension, among other items," Nissan said in its statement. "The prototypes were manufactured with parts models equal to those that equip the series, which were replicated by local suppliers at a later stage, thus guaranteeing the quality of the final product." The performance tests carried out during the development stage of the new product consist of chassis tests, which allow specifications to be adjusted, and engine tests, where consumption and CO2 emissions are displayed. In addition, quality tests and specific safety tests are carried out, including the technologies of the Nissan Intelligent Safety Shield package. As we have learned, the new Navara of Argentine origin will arrive in Chile at the beginning of 2023 and will have a design and specifications similar to the versions currently on sale. https://noticias.autocosmos.cl/2022/06/03/nissan-prepara-en-terreno-la-nueva-navara-que-llegara-a-chile

The death in a stampede of four students in a university assembly reopened the debate in Bolivia about thousands of "dinosaur" students, who study for decades in the Bolivian free system without graduating. On May 9, a tear gas grenade panicked hundreds of students who were participating in a meeting at the Tomás Frías University in Potosí. The stampede left four dead, more than 70 injured and a controversy: the role of Max Mendoza in the assembly. Mendoza is 52 years old, of which 33 have been in college. In more than three decades he has not managed to graduate from any of the various careers to which he has signed up, according to the ruling deputy Héctor Arce. "There are leaders who in some way have taken advantage of their role, because I believe that the university leader has come first to be a university student and then to be a leader," the rector of the state-run Universidad Mayor de San Andrés (UMSA) told AFP. ) of La Paz, Oscar Heredia. Since 1989, Mendoza has failed more than 200 subjects and finished more than 100 courses with a zero grade (the worst), according to deputy Arce. But the Mendoza case is just the tip of the iceberg for thousands of "dinosaur" students. That academic record did not prevent him from earning a monthly salary of 21,860 bolivianos, about 3,150 dollars (similar to that of a rector), because he also served as head of the Executive Committee of the Bolivian University, which coordinates the public institutes of higher education in the country. In the midst of the investigations of the tragedy, versions began to circulate on social networks that Mendoza, president of the Bolivian University Confederation, was behind one of the factions in conflict in the assembly. Mendoza was sent to preventive detention on May 21, denounced for various crimes. "They are profiteers" "There are these dinosaurs, they live more than 20 years in the university," Karen Apaza, an engineering student at UMSA and an activist against the eternal student leaders, tells AFP. Beymar Quisberth, from the Sociology course at the Universidad Mayor San Francisco Xabier de Sucre, the oldest in the country, explains that "a satire is made" with the term dinosaur. "That term is used for years (...), they always call them dinosaurs (in universities), but now it is at the national level that the term is used," he adds. Another leader accused of being a "dinosaur" is Álvaro Quelali, 37, a leader of the UMSA students, who has been a student at the university for 20 years. "They are dinosaurs, profiteers, it's a shame," says Gabriela Paz, 20, a student at the Faculty of Law and Political Science, while her partner Mateo Siles, 21, affirms that "there are people who remain in public universities to have certain gifts. Not only leaders The rector of the UMSA clarifies that there are not only student leaders who have spent many years at that university, but also thousands of ordinary students. Of the 81,723 students at UMSA, 23% (18,796) have been studying for more than 11 years and 6.7% (5,475) for more than 20 years. "It is an issue that worries us, but it is a subject of great debate," says Heredia. There are even a thousand students who have been at that university for more than 30 years and a hundred more than 40 years. In other institutes the problem is similar. At the Gabriel René Moreno University in Santa Cruz (east) there are about 90,000 students and 3% of them (about 2,700) have been with them for more than 10 years. Guido Zambrana, renowned professor of Medicine at UMSA, affirms that "it is necessary to recognize that we are in the deepest crisis". Therefore, he recommends "that the entire structure of corruption, mismanagement, distortion of co-government (teacher-student), which for decades has been deteriorating, collapse." "The university is obsolete, anachronistic, it no longer responds to the current situation" in Bolivia, says Zambrana. https://www.emol.com/noticias/Internacional/2022/06/04/1063061/bolivia-estudiantes-dinosaurios-universidades.html

Two important titles to the fore and as we saw yesterday AMD was ahead of NVIDIA to show with these releases its package of games that will go with the purchase of the RX 6000. Huang's have done the same and have released their new driver GeForce 512.95 WHQL Game Ready, where not only these two triple A titles (Hitman 3 and Sniper Elite 5) are supported, but three important problems are corrected, two associated with Adobe Premiere Pro. Without too many changes, but important, especially for those who use the PC for many more things than to play. In addition to these changes that we are going to see below, it is important to add that NVIDIA increases the list of known problems, for which many will be able to see the errors reflected and expect a correction shortly. NVIDIA GeForce 512.95 WHQL, driver for Hitman 3 and Sniper Elite 5 As usually happens with NVIDIA, its download center gives us all the information we need to understand the changes in this new driver, which for now and as we see, is not giving or reporting bugs as such. So let's see what the greens have introduced in these 512.95 WHQL as drivers for Hitman 3 and Sniper Elite 5. Software module versions HD Audio Driver — 1.3.39.3 NVIDIA PhysX System Software—9.21.0713 GeForce Experience—3.25.1.27 CUDA—11.6 DCH NVIDIA Control Panel—8.1.962.0 support for Sniper Elite 5 Hitman 3 with Ray Tracing and DLSS My Time as Sandrock Fixed issues [GRID 2019]: Flags and banners will no longer flicker during gameplay. [Adobe Premiere Pro]: Fixed Direct3D related crash dumps. [Adobe Premiere Pro]: The NVIDIA Control Panel now allows users to modify Image Sharpening settings. Known issues Turning HDR on and off in-game causes stability issues when using a non-native resolution. [GeForce RTX 3090 Ti] Oculus Rift S/Pimax 8Kx are not detected. Videos played in Microsoft Edge may appear green if NVIDIA Image Scaling is enabled when resuming from hibernation or booting with fastboot. [DirectX 12] Shadowplay recordings may appear overexposed when HDR is enabled from Windows display settings. [Assassin's Creed Origins] The game flashes when the character is underwater near a ship. The monitor may flicker briefly when exiting screen sleep mode if DSR/DLDSR is enabled. [NVIDIA Ampere GPU]: With the GPU connected to an A/V receiver with HDMI 2.1, audio may drop out when playing Dolby Atmos. The Club 3D CAC-1085 dongle is limited to a maximum resolution of 4K at 60 Hz. As always, you can download these drivers from the official NVIDIA website by selecting the model of your graphics card and the options, after which we recommend that you uninstall the current ones using DDU by following our tutorial. This way you make sure that this new NVIDIA driver for Hitman 3 and Sniper Elite 5 does not give you problems with these games or with any other. Do not forget to disable the network card before entering Windows safe mode with DDU and of course, do not forget to activate it after installing this driver.

Rumors and more rumors about what both AMD and NVIDIA will bring to the table. And it is that the new generation of graphics cards will arrive with great news compared to their predecessors, starting with two new lithographic nodes that apparently will push the frequencies of these graphics to record speed levels and totally as standard. What values are filtering through the Internet about this? We actually know little to nothing about the new TSMC exclusive node for NVIDIA called 4N (not to be confused with the N4 that we always name) but it seems to be something really interesting. The problem of the frequency is linked to this as to another decisive factor: the number of cores that a graphics card has and here the scales are quite uneven according to the latest rumors. NVIDIA would take the throne of performance: record speed graphics Well, according to the latest leak from a well-known leaker such as Kopite7kimi, NVIDIA could give a more than interesting blow to this debate that has been with us for almost two and a half years. As we well know, Ampere has not meant a big frequency change in NVIDIA, while RDNA 2 has in AMD and hence part of its success in terms of performance. But everything will change and the gap will apparently close. The filtering indicates something very interesting, and it is nothing more than the fact that the AD102 chip, a benchmark in the gaming sector, could reach 2.8 GHz completely as standard with its 18,432 Shaders. But of course, this chip would be used for the supposed RTX 4090 Ti that could also arrive as a TITAN if necessary, and that from the outset and as we know, will not go on the market because NVIDIA keeps that ace up its sleeve. What we will see is an AD102-300 cut to 16,128 Shaders that due to the cut it suffers in its SM will consume 450 watts and possibly maintain that figure of 2.8 GHz, which will also mean a record in the Huang graphics card segment serial speed. AMD would disappoint in "almost" all aspects TSMC's 5nm for Lisa Su will represent a more than notable jump in performance compared to the current 7nm and 6nm. It is speculated with a figure well below the expected in terms of total cores for Navi 31: 12,288 Shaders. Apparently, AMD is going for a monolithic chip with 6 MCDs surrounding it with an interposer made by TSMC with its 65nm CoWoS technology, so it wouldn't be the kind of MCM architecture we expected, but at the same time it's revolutionary because it leaves out of the main chip important parts of it, such as the L3. The problem in terms of frequencies is that AMD would not have taken such a big step as NVIDIA, where rumors point to 3 GHz as standard for the alleged RX 7900 XT. Therefore, and except for last minute surprises in architecture, AMD starts with too great a disadvantage in Shaders to compensate for those supposed 200 MHz more than it could achieve. Curiously, nothing has been said about the consumption of this Navi 31, nor do we know anything about the price. What it does seem is that AMD is betting on a model that is more complex in terms of elements of its architecture, but cheaper to manufacture in general terms and, above all, easier to dissipate because it has individual units where the heat output can be separated. to the sink. What we can be sure of is that it will be very interesting to see the two bets officially on the table, because in any case these graphs will break speed records once again.

After the Minister of Transport, Juan Carlos Muñoz, affirmed this Thursday that the viability of the Santiago-Valparaíso train project must have "social profitability" to be executed, the former president of the State Railways Company (EFE), Pedro Pablo Errázuriz assured that the private proposals, currently being analyzed by the Government, require a "giant subsidy" that would not be convenient in the future. Specifically, and by way of context, the Ministry of Public Works, through its Concessions Office, is currently studying two private proposals submitted by the 'TVS' companies; and 'Talgo, Agunsa and FCC'. Faced with them, the Secretary of State commented that both are being analyzed to define if any of them meet the standards of "social profitability", and thus initiate the formal development of the work. However, in a conversation with Radio Pauta, Pedro Pablo Erráruriz stated that he was "a little afraid of this project by the Ministry of Public Works, because I think the subsidy it requires is gigantic. Therefore, in my opinion, it has to be studied very carefully, but it is not in the hands of EFE, rather it is in the hands of the Ministry of Public Works, it is the minister who has to analyze with concessions whether it is socially profitable or not". It should be noted that the projects that are being studied by the MOP are outside the railway plan that EFE currently has, so the state company has no participation in the execution of the specific Santiago-Valparaíso train project. However, according to Errázuriz, there is a proposal presented by EFE, which is not being largely considered by the Government. For this reason, and before Minister Muñoz's announcement that these two private company projects are being studied, the former president of EFE explained that "the biggest problem with this project is that it requires such a large subsidy, that it really It doesn't turn out to be convenient in the end." "Despite the fact that politically and communicationally it is very attractive, it has a risk due to the gigantic level of subsidy it has, of being a solution that may not be the most appropriate. It is not capable (of being subsidized), I did the math and it requires the subsidy of the order of 20,000 pesos per passenger, that is, each trip of each passenger requires a subsidy of the order of 20,000 pesos. So, they are amounts too large for the level of need that the country has, "he said. In line with the above, Errázuriz warned that, according to his calculations, "the subsidy that this project requires is of the order of 250 million dollars a year, so it is very large for the number of challenges that the country has. I hope he is wrong and that the private consortiums do not require the subsidy that I estimate, that would be good news and that is what the Ministry of Public Works is now analyzing". Under those possible "difficulties" that the Santiago-Valparaíso train could have if it were concessioned to private parties, the former president of the state company defended that "the EFE projects, which are well thought out, well studied and have been worked on for many years." "The main virtue of an EFE project is that it uses the existing strip of road for a large part of the route, not the entire route, but that means that the investment impact is less as a result of not having to expropriate or have to expropriate much less. And that means that environmentally it is easier, because one has the advantage that there is already a file, that the community already knows about the train in those areas," he mentioned. Lastly, Errázuriz stated that "the challenge of making a train all over again with new expropriations, with new communities, with all the new environmental impact study, is a great challenge. I think there is an advantage in what could be EFE, but the truth is that this is not yet in the folder, what is in the folder are these two private proposals and I hope they do well. "I put the alert that from the State you have to be careful and take a good look at the level of subsidy that the project requires," he concluded. https://www.emol.com/noticias/Nacional/2022/06/03/1062968/efe-cuestiona-proyectos-privados-tren.html

People infected with monkeypox should avoid contact with other people until the pustules with which the disease manifests dry and the scabs fall off, at which point they can no longer transmit the virus. But so must their mammalian pets, who must be quarantined to prevent chains of transmission between animals that reach wildlife, a scenario that could make this pathogen "endemic in Europe". This is the warning that the European Center for Disease Control and Prevention (ECDC) launched this afternoon in a risk report on the monkeypox outbreak that the continent is suffering and that already affects more than a hundred people , between confirmed and suspected cases, in a dozen countries. "There is a potential risk of transmission from people to animals, so close collaboration between health and veterinary authorities is necessary, working from a global health perspective to care for exposed pets," the document states. This highlights that the greatest risk occurs with domestic rodents, such as hamsters and different types of rats, and that this jump, although very unlikely, "can cause the virus to establish itself in European wildlife and convert smallpox monkey in an endemic zoonotic disease”. Rodents are known to be a prominent reservoir of this virus in Africa. The ECDC recommends that measures be taken so that all mammalian pets that have been in contact with the positive cases and their close contacts “are quarantined and tested”. For their part, “rodents should ideally be isolated in monitored spaces” with air flow control and that ensure their well-being, such as laboratories, government spaces, kennels or animal protection organization units. There they must be subjected to PCR tests before the end of the quarantine, while "euthanasia should only be considered when it is not possible" to apply these measures. "Other species of mammals can quarantine at home if welfare conditions allow it (such as going outside in fenced spaces in the case of dogs and access to veterinary services)", avoiding visits from third parties and the exit of animals from homes and enclosed spaces. The ECDC recommends that governments increase efforts in the identification, notification and contact tracing of emerging human cases in the coming days, when diagnoses are expected to continue. "Countries must update contact tracing mechanisms, Orthopoxvirus diagnostic capacity, and review the availability of vaccines, antivirals, and protective equipment for health professionals," the document says. The agency's experts consider "high" the risk that the monkeypox virus continues to spread these days "among people with multiple sexual partners", although it reduces the risk to their health to "moderate" because the vast majority of the cases diagnosed so far have developed “mild symptoms”. For the rest of the po[CENSORED]tion, the ECDC considers the risk to be "low". Despite the low severity of diagnosed cases, the agency warns that some po[CENSORED]tion groups such as "young children, pregnant women and immunosuppressed people" may develop "more serious" forms of the disease. In the event that the infected person lives with others, experts recommend staying in a separate room and avoiding sharing undisinfected bathrooms and unwashed clothing such as towels and sheets, since the secretions that come out of the pustules and blisters are very contagious. The report does not explicitly recommend that close contacts of the positives isolate themselves, but they do "monitor for 21 days after exposure for the possible development of symptoms." More than a hundred people in Europe have been diagnosed with monkeypox in the current outbreak. Spain has increased the number of positives to 36, six more, and studies fifty suspects. The United Kingdom, for its part, has reported 36 new patients, up to 57, while Portugal already adds 37 after notifying 14. These three countries represent more than 90% of the known cases so far, although the records already include Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, France, Denmark, Austria, Switzerland and Sweden. Outside Europe, Canada is the country with the most affected, more than twenty, although there are also in the United States, Israel, Australia and Argentina. In the last hours, diagnoses have been known in other countries originating in Spain. One case is that of an Argentine man from Spain. Another, that of a young Italian from Tuscany who began to develop symptoms after returning from the Canary Islands. A massive party held in Gran Canaria between May 5 and 15, and Madrid capital (especially the Sauna Paraíso) are the two sources of the outbreak located in Spain so far. Miguel Ángel Jiménez Clavero, research professor at the National Institute for Agricultural and Food Research and Technology (INIA-CSIC), considers the scenario to which the ECDC is warning possible. “We know that this virus has its reservoir in Africa among small mammals, such as squirrels and other rodents, from which it jumps to humans and apes. If this happens there, it can also happen in Europe. We do not know, but that is why it is important to prevent. If the virus develops in similar po[CENSORED]tions or in rabbits, it can be very difficult to eradicate and could be the cause of outbreaks in humans from now on, ”he explains. The most important precedent for the transmission of the monkeypox virus between animals outside of Africa was an outbreak in 2003 in the United States, when dozens of prairie dogs contracted it while sharing space in the facilities of an importer of exotic species. with a type of rats from Gambia. Subsequently, prairie dogs, a rodent that was traded as a pet, transmitted the disease to more than 70 people between the months of May and July. Although the virus was later detected in wild fauna species, circulation did not prosper and the virus ended up becoming extinct in the country, according to Jiménez Clavero. In that outbreak, all those affected acquired the virus from their pets and there were no recorded cases of human-to-human transmission. There was also no death. "Fortunately, then as now the virus causing the outbreak is of the West African strain, which is less virulent than the one found in the central part of the continent," explains this expert, who considers that "although now the number of cases, the evidence shows that this virus is not very contagious and the outbreaks end up self-limiting. In the United States, 24 exposed people then received the traditional smallpox vaccine to curb transmission of the virus, something the UK has already begun to do with close contacts from the current outbreak. There is no specific vaccine against monkeypox, but the proximity between both pathogens makes the vaccine against the traditional disease effective in more than 80% of cases. Although the Ministry of Health has already begun the steps to acquire vaccines, it has not been made public if the purchase has been agreed, an operation that would have some type of coordination within the European Union. “The Commission, and in particular the Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Authority (HERA), is in close contact with the Member States, the pharmaceutical industry and international experts to have the necessary information and to know the availability and access to means of diagnosis, treatments and vaccines”, responded a spokesman for the European Commission. The Danish company Bavarian Nordic, manufacturer of the only authorized vaccine in the EU against smallpox, announced Thursday that it has closed the sale of an unknown number of vaccines with an unnamed European country. https://elpais.com/sociedad/2022-05-23/la-ue-llama-a-poner-en-cuarentena-a-las-mascotas-de-los-contagiados-y-sus-contactos-para-evitar-que-la-viruela-del-mono-se-haga-endemica.html

The creative brand of the battery-powered car included a series of "systems for women" that did not go unnoticed. One of the most unusual launches that the automotive industry experienced in 2021 was that of the ORA Punk Cat, a Chinese vehicle produced by ORA, a sub-brand of Great Wall, and that surprised the world with its appearance, extremely similar to the Volkswagen Beetle. The ORA "Cat" family has also given birth to other models with rather curious names and all appealing to the silhouette of the Beetle or the Beetle for the most modern looking models. Despite the possible lawsuits that Volkswagen was going to initiate against the Chinese firm, at the end of last year the brand not only released one of the final versions of the Punk Cat, called the Ballet Cat, but also patented the model in Europe and in Brazil. While we wait for more news about the arrival of the curious vehicle in the region, we learned through Chinese media that ORA announced the inclusion of a series of systems that target the female gender and that are quite striking. Some are even typical of the historical stigmatization of the supposed "weaker sex". ORA Ballet Cat: Functions for women? At its launch on the Chinese market, the ORA Ballet Cat was presented as an "elegant car for women", according to the brand itself, which also noted that it has a "friendly configuration" with the female gender. In this sense, and according to what was reported by CarNewsChina, the vehicle includes five rather curious systems: "Warm Man" female drive mode child mode makeup compartment selfie camera Warm Man The Warm Man function ("warm man" in Spanish) is intended to work on those days when women go through their menstrual period. Yes, just as you read. To develop this mode, the brand stated that it worked together with a research team, which inquired about the "physical and psychological needs" of women on these days. The result of the analyzes determined that during menstruation they maintain a low body temperature, so, in order to make them feel more comfortable, the Warm Man mode allows the cabin to increase its ambient temperature. Beyond whether it works or not, it goes without saying that the name is, at least for our culture, misguided. female drive mode If the previous mode can be understood as a benefit for women, this one seems to come from the age of the dinosaurs. Assuming that women drive poorly, or find it extremely difficult to take the wheel, the "female driving" function activates a series of assistances, such as automatic cruise control, voice-controlled parking and fatigue warning. Unusual. child mode Like the previous one, it is a resource that can be used by both women and men, but the brand directed it towards them. Specifically, it is a function that incorporates a camera into the digital instrument panel that records what happened with a baby or child located in the rear seat. makeup compartment To make it complete, the ORA Ballet Cat includes a "secret" compartment, located on the top of the model, to store any type of makeup. Again, we are talking about a functionality that could be used by anyone, and even not just to store makeup. Anyway. selfie camera As if only women took selfies, ORA decided that this “feminine” vehicle would have a camera in the passenger compartment. Located on the inside of the A-pillar (at least from what you see in the pictures), it's built into the car's multimedia system, so snapped photos can quickly be posted to any social network. Finally, ORA highlighted that the car also has a steering wheel that was made especially for women, both in size and design. In this sense, the brand took into account "the width of the shoulders and the size of the palms of the women's hands". https://noticias.autocosmos.cl/2022/06/02/otra-del-escarabajo-chino-llegan-las-funas-por-sistemas-que-cosifican-a-la-mujer

"Armed violence will not be tolerated in our country. Our Less Arms, More Security Program proposes the radical limitation of its legal access." President Gabriel Boric said on Wednesday in his first public account, an instance where he also requested the support of Congress to advance in a regulation that is part of said plan. This, because the strategy proposes other eight additional objectives, among them, the creation of the Arms Control Unit; the increase in seizures with the support of Carabineros and the PDI; control operations in armories; advancement of the annual firearms inspection plan (in July); the modernization of the control and registration system; the strengthening of weapon delivery campaigns in territories; and territorial indicators for monitoring the use of firearms. Thus, the idea is to reach a total ban on the possession of weapons and strengthen the institutions in charge of control. All this, under the argument that the Ministry of the Interior expresses in the detail of the plan: the "brake" on the circulation of firearms, could "reduce the number of violent crimes." "Evidence worldwide has made it clear that the increase in this type of (violent) crime is associated with the access of firefighters. That is why this plan seeks to play a key role in its control," complements the portfolio. The topic generates debate. President Boric, during his message on the national network on Wednesday, and aware of the reticence caused by the issue in some sectors, stated that "some believe that a society with neighborhoods full of weapons could solve something. They are profoundly mistaken. Weapons are source of risk, violence, crime and death. They are in the United States and they are also in Chile. We don't want to get to that." Is there a point of comparison?: The figures from Chile According to the Small Arms Survey portal -with specialized data on weapons and armed violence, based in Switzerland-, in 2020 in the United States there were 120.5 weapons per 100 inhabitants, and it is estimated that 393 million weapons are in the possession of civilians. In Europe, countries like Finland would have 1.7 million weapons in the hands of civilians and an average of 32.3 per 100 people; and in Iceland, there are 106 thousand weapons in the possession of civilians and 31.74 per 100 people. And in the case of Chile? According to the same portal, it is estimated that there are 2,200,000 weapons in the possession of civilians in Chile, of which 1,456,818 are not registered. Every 100 people, 12.12 have a gun. For this reason, for Iván Navas, a criminal law scholar at the San Sebastián University Law School, the diagnosis made by President Boric "is wrong", since the figures for Chile are far from those of other countries, especially the United States. . On the other hand, he recalls that there is a relevant cultural issue, which is even expressed in what the US constitution establishes, where the carrying of a weapon "is guaranteed as a right, while the Chilean tradition has always been restrictive. It is not a good idea compared to the United States, which is the worst example on the matter. Along the same lines, Pilar Lizana, a researcher at AthenaLab, also states that the analogy with the United States "was striking", since not only is the use of weapons part of the formation of its State, but also because it is a power with a strong interference from the arms lobby. "I would interpret it as a call for security, but we have to analyze our reality and here the issue of institutionality is key, after knowing our shortcomings and asking ourselves how we are as a State in the face of the situation of violence that we are going through," she remarks. For his part, Daniel Johnson, director of Paz Ciudadana, affirms that there is a correlation where "countries that have more weapons tend to have more conditions of violence", and for that reason "we do not recommend weapons to prevent being victims of crime, for a series of arguments: they are not preventive, but are used when someone has already entered a home, and they can also take a series of measures such as putting up protection, lighting, or community alarms, among others". Improve management and strengthen institutions Does the restriction of weapons solve the underlying problem of violent crimes? The experts affirm that the measure alone does not solve it, and although all maintain nuances in their arguments, they believe that improving the institutional framework and management for control is key. A concrete example: the final report of the Audit carried out by the Comptroller General of the Republic to the General Directorate of National Mobilization (2021), detected a series of shortcomings between January 1 and December 31, 2018. 1,083 weapons were found in hands of minors; 72 civilians with a valid RUT who were listed with weapons registered before their date of birth; 22,987 cases of civilians with criminal records with possession of weapons were reported; there were 10,677 weapons grouped with "RUT zero", making it impossible to identify their holder. It was also found that out of a total of 5,762 civilians and 27 legal entities that registered arms in Chile as of 2013, only 2,505 renewed their accreditation as of December 2018, leaving 56.73% without completing the procedure that establishes that any person who has a weapon registered more than five years ago must do so. Meanwhile, 132,921 deceased persons appear in the records with 182,898 current registrations of weapons. "This shows a problem on the part of those who authorize these permits and, of course, do the control. This is in the hands of the Carabineros, but it probably requires a reformulation of the unit, or having a specific unit to raise standards. All initiatives that seek to improve management must be supported," says Navas. For his part, Johnson affirms that "weapons are acquired to control certain criminal markets, but they are also used to settle accounts, to show power, and in the operation of criminal gangs. So, thinking about restricting legal use of weapons is it is going to control the basic situation and it is not going to solve the problem; there are other sources of weapons that are going to continue to operate. And that is why the President announced other measures to prosecute organized crime." Doubts about "zero tolerance" For the experts, certain doubts remained after the announcement, which in any case should be resolved when the content of the bill is known. https://www.emol.com/noticias/Nacional/2022/06/03/1062873/expertos-armas-tolerancia-cero-boric.html
