On many occasions we have heard about the file Windows Hosts, however, many users may not have clear what is the specific function of this file. In summary, the main function of the Windows Hosts file is to have a file in which web pages can be registered to accelerate their loading and, likewise, block other specific domains to avoid any connection to them. The main advantages offered by modifying this file are: Accelerate the load of web pages that we use the most by avoiding having to go through the DNS server resolving automatically. Block certain web pages so they do not load. Avoid censorship of certain countries by going directly to the IP instead of the domain. The hosts file in Windows is located in the following path: ? WINDOWSsystem32driversetchosts We must remember that we have to be system administrators to be able to edit this file. To edit it, simply open a notepad and select the file hosts in your route. By default, a window similar to the following will appear. By default this file does not do anything (as we can see, all the lines are commented with a pad #) but we can modify it to our liking to be able to take advantage of it to the maximum. How to correctly modify the Windows Hosts file How to add a page to resolve automatically without going through the DNS The correct way to add a page so that it loads automatically without going through the DNS server that resolves it is: [IP] [Tabulation] [Domain] For example, if we want the page www.google.es to upload automatically without going through the DNS, we must add the following entry to the hosts file. 173.194.45.88 www.google.es In this way whenever we write www.google.es in our browser it will automatically go to the address 173.194.45.88 instead of the DNS. How to block a web page from the hosts file The way to block a web page in this file is to force Windows to automatically resolve the domain in 127.0.0.1, that is, in local, which will cause the web not to load. [127.0.0.1] [Tabulation] [Domain] For example, if we want to block www.miweb.com we must do it in the following way: 127.0.0.1 www.miweb.com The result of the file with the 2 previous changes will be as follows. This way, for example, when we access Google Windows it will check this file first and if there is a specific rule it will resolve it, otherwise, it will be sent to the DNS to get a response. In the case of www.miweb.com when analyzing the hosts file the page will return an error automatically when redirected to localhost (127.0.0.1). Dangers of Hosts file Some viruses and Trojans are programmed to modify this file blocking antivirus web pages and redirecting certain websites to others (for example modify so that www.google.es loads another malicious or controlled by hackers). To solve this we can use several tools developed for this purpose, for example, Microsoft's FixIt. We must also bear in mind that if we add too many entries to this file we can generate an excessive process load in our system that does not slow down the connection to the internet and instead of benefiting us it will harm us.

Mediatek today announced the new Helio P70 just one day after Qualcomm announced the Snapdragon 675, its new commitment to the mid-range with many features that were only present in the high range. This new chip is aimed at the upper middle range, with the cost as the main asset to fight against Qualcomm. Helio P70: the new processor for the cheap premium mid-range The Helio P70 is a processor manufactured by TSMC under a somewhat antiquated 12 nm FinFET lithography, with four Cortex-A73 cores and four Cortex-A53 cores. In addition to lithography, the same ARM Mali-G72 GPU is also maintained, increasing the frequency to 900 MHz to improve its performance. In games, the P70 consumes 35% less energy. The processor now runs at 2.1 GHz for the A73 cores, and at 2.0 GHz for the A53. In total, the performance improvement is 13% compared to the previous model. The APU to process AI tasks offers an efficiency between 10 and 30% higher compared to the P60 in that type of tasks. The mobiles that equip this chip will be able to incorporate a single camera of 32 MP, or two cameras of up to 24 and 16 MP. Also included is a motor that improves the detection of depth of the image that improves the detection of faces until reaching an accuracy of 90%. It also includes electronic stabilization that saves 23 mA per second thanks to not assigning that task to the GPU. The chip will be able to process photos in RAW and HDR, besides being able to process the photos in JPG 20% faster. The mobiles that equip it will only have Full HD + resolution at most In terms of memory, the P70 supports up to 8 GB of LPDDR4X memory or 4 GB of LPDDR3 memory. It also allows the use of eMMC 5.1 memory and UFS 2.1 storage. The Bluetooth remains at 4.2, so we will have to wait for future generations for the 5.0 that already use high-end phones this year, although it is compatible with WiFi AC (WiFi 5). The LTE is Cat.7. As for video, it can record up to 1080p at 30 FPS, and can decode HEVC. The maximum resolution of the screen can be 2400 x 1080 pixels. The chip is also compatible with Beidou, Galileo, Glonass and GPS. The chip is now available for manufacturers to begin to incorporate into their phones, and the first models that take it will start to be available next month. The mobiles that will equip it will be those that are oriented around a price of 300 or 400 dollars, especially in the Chinese market, so there will be quite a few mobiles at a good price that will take it. This processor is slightly more premium, but will not replace the P60 for a few months. It's a slight improvement like the one that Qualcomm launched with the Snapdragon 821 versus the 820.

The change of image can occur for many reasons, but the new icons of Microsoft only want to imply one thing: the company is looking to the future. "These changes are given to support the change of labor forces in the world. Office is also becoming a collaborative platform that can be used from almost any device and we wanted to show that, "wrote John Friedman, the company's design director on the Medium portal. The icons and tools of Microsoft did not have a redesign since 2013, but in 2018 its interface changed to be more intuitive thanks to artificial intelligence. We have seen how Office 365 works better in the cloud and has interactive aspects. For example, connect with LinkedIn to help create a resume more quickly and easily. To see other updates that Microsoft has made, visit this link. An icon different from what we were used to, but that we recognize All the icons of Microsoft changed from Word to Skype, they are much simpler and at the same time colorful. However, you can still know what each of them is for without having to open the program. The icon with the fewest changes, in my view, was Skype. "Simplicity and harmony were key when redesigning them", highlights Friedman. Basically, the change occurs in the construction of two panels. On the one hand, we have the letter of the application (W for Word, X for Excel) and, on the other, a symbolic panel. This allows having two possible icons that can be adapted to different platforms without necessarily changing them: an application for iPhone where they can use only the letter or the program on a PC where they use it completely. The new icons will begin to appear on people's screens in the coming months, starting with the mobile and web versions of the programs, Friedman concludes.

Google tested a new location for the New Tab button in Chrome. Specifically, his idea was to replicate to mobile browsers with a fixed position for this button on the left side of the open tab bar. That would make the button not move according to the open tabs, but it did not stop working among the users. Finally, the launch of Google Chrome 69 solved the problem by replacing the button in its usual place. However, now we know that it is possible to change the position of the button "New tab" in Google Chrome and we explain how to do it. Google Chrome 69 was launched at the end of August with the new Material Design design to all users. Despite the tests of previous months, the button to open a new tab (that + located to the right of the open tabs) was put back in its usual place. In the previous months, it was tested with a new fixed location to the left of the whole, but the users did not end up getting accustomed or convinced. How to change the position of "New tab" in Google Chrome It is possible that some users will be convinced with this change for one reason or another. By default, Google Chrome displays the New tab button in the same place as always, but has left the door open for users to decide where to place it with a simple change in settings. The Google Chrome experiment menu, better known as chrome: // flags for the necessary text to enter in the address bar to access, hides hidden browser or experimental functions that have not been fully activated (and it is possible that never they do it). Thanks to this hidden menu we have been able to try new features before your official arrival and change certain aspects of the browser. In this case, let's see how to change the position of "New tab" in Google Chrome: Type chrome: // flags in the address bar and press enter Find the "New Tab Button Position" option and expand your options By default we have the "Default" behavior, but we can choose between "Opposite caption buttons", "Leading", "After Tabs" or "Trailing" Choose the option that you like the most (you can try them all before deciding) Restart the browser to apply the changes

This week, Qualcomm has officially presented the Snapdragon 855. This previous one is the chipset that will give life to -almost- the entire high range of Android smartphones of 2019. But they have also presented the Snapdragon 8cx, an 'extreme' processor that is for laptops with Windows 10 under ARM. And although the 'extreme' is a marketing thing, and is what justifies the 'x' of its name, we are before the most powerful Snapdragon in history. Qualcomm embraces the 7 nanometers also with this chipset, which has a CPU in configuration of eight cores with architecture Kryo 495. According to the official figures of the manufacturer, and still pending to see performance tests of final products, SoC Snapdragon 8cx promises to duplicate the performance of other competing chips with 7 W of TDP. That is, with a negligible energy consumption accompanied by LPDDR4 memory in eight channels and support for UFS 3.0 or NVMe SSD memories. At the graphics level, it has the Adreno 680 GPU, which promises a double performance compared to the previous generation, and three times more power than the one included in the Snapdragon 835. This is the Snapdragon 8cx, the most powerful Snapdragon in history designed for laptops with Windows 10 On the other hand, Qualcomm has also highlighted a 60% higher energy efficiency in the Adreno 680 GPU compared to the one offered by the Snapdragon 850. With the improvements in efficiency for the CPU and the GPU, the new Windows 10 laptops that include This chipset should offer several days of autonomy. And in addition, with other interesting features such as 4G LTE connectivity thanks to the X24 modem integrated in the chipset, or the fast loading provided by the Quick Charge 4+ technology, the latest iteration available. With these technical characteristics, Qualcomm has been able to go a step further and now we can count on Windows 10 Enterprise. Not only is it the most powerful Snapdragon chipset in history but, at the moment, it is also the most powerful option that can be mounted on a Windows 10 laptop in ARM configuration. But the most important thing is not only the improvements in performance, but also in efficiency. And we will see the first laptops with this hardware from next year 2019.

After years with Internet Explorer, and problems one after another, in 2015 the Redmond company launched Microsoft Edge as the default browser of Windows 10. With a new engine that should be more stable, safe and fast, but has also given problems throughout these years. And this week it was leaked that Microsoft is preparing a new web browser that will be based on Chromium, the engine of Google Chrome. Now we know that yes, the Redmond company is preparing a new version of Microsoft Edge - and not a new web browser, in parallel - and that will effectively use the Chromium engine. That is, it will start on the same basis as Google Chrome and, therefore, should also inherit some of its best features. But beyond this confirmation, we have also been able to know now that throughout the next year 2019 the Redmond company will launch Microsoft Edge also for computers with mac OS. For the first time, Edge will hit Apple's computers. Edge is passed to Chromium, Windows will update faster, and Microsoft will launch its new web browser for Apple computers in 2019 On the one hand we have the confirmation that Microsoft Edge will be based on Chromium from next year 2019, we do not know exactly when. And we know that it will not be a new wbe browser, but the same Microsoft Edge, in what is probably its most important update since it was originally launched. And we also know that this change in Edge will make it available for Mac computers for the first time. In addition, interesting information has been released regarding Windows updates, which will be faster from next year 2019. After the serious problems that the company has experienced with the launch of Windows 10 October 2018 Update, and of these something more than three years with Microsoft Edge without taking off, it seems that Microsoft is changing its strategy. By 2019 we already know several important changes that are being prepared and, of course, we will have a great update of your Windows 10 operating system during the first half of the year.

The president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, announced yesterday the signing of contracts with Russia for the investment of more than 6,000 million dollars in oil projects, gold exploitation and wheat supply. Maduro, who met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, explained that a contract was signed in Moscow that guarantees that more than 5,000 million dollars will be used to raise oil production, and another 1,000 million for mining production, especially the gold, and with the possibility of investing in the diamond sector. The president also reported on the signing of a contract that guarantees the supply of 600,000 tons of wheat "for bread for the Venezuelan people", which will cover the needs of his country in 2019. At the military level, both parties signed contracts "for the attention, assistance and repair of the weapons system" of Venezuela. Also, in a meeting between the defense ministers of both countries, the Venezuelan official Vladimir Padrino López told his Russian colleague Sergei Shoigú the Caracas interest in modernizing and renewing their military equipment, while Shoigú stressed that Russia is interested in continuing to use the airports and ports of Venezuela for its warships and military aviation.
