Twitter Facebook attacks: allow you to save the published news - Digital Economy

Facebook wants to sharpen his memory. The hegemony of Twitter as the main social network for news and information consumers bother to Mark Zuckerberg, who has to work to enhance opportunities for Facebook as “personalized newspaper”. The idea is simple: users can save content to read later and calmly

This feature will be incorporated into a privileged space for the social network.. Next to the likes and the ‘comment’ button that will allow a new archive links shared by users in a list will appear. With the new functionality, you can access the stored content from the main menu of Facebook.

Immediacy against memory

The ability to keep links and access easily to them is a counterpoint to the immediacy of social media, an almost inherent value to your birth. And it is, or so the experts will discuss a way to differentiate the continuous flow of information from Twitter.

The new feature, reports ABC , and tested in a Updates App for iPad and iPhone launched in 2012, only that in this, the links are kept pressing a finger on them, rather than incorporating a specific button.

The ISON comet may have survived the Sol - El Periódico de Aragón

ISON comet, which was considered disintegrated after his trip around the sun, seems to have survived his space adventure. Although NASA scientists at first thought that the meteor had failed to cross the solar corona, new observations from other telescope indicate that although only stay in space a part of their small nucleus, the comet managed the dangerous traffic .

Scientists had debated

two days after the passage near the Sun ISON on 28 November on whether the luminous powder was perceived in telescopes was just remnants of his encounter with the star or comet nucleus was in its path away from the solar system. “It appears that a part of the core has been achieved through the solar corona and re-emerge,” said Karl Battams, one of the scientists who has followed the path of the comet.

ISON, first seen in September 2012 by Russian astronomers, is a special comet that comes from the Oort cloud, a bubble around the solar system and, it is believed, is formed by the remains of the nebula that gave rise to the Sun and planets 4,600 million years ago. “Now that has emerged and begun to shine we need to observe a few days to evaluate their behavior,” said Battams, who believes that the meteor is one of the most “extraordinary we have ever encountered.”

Washington, Nov. 30 (Reuters) -. ISON The comet, which was considered disintegrated after his trip around the sun, seems to have survived, although only subtract your small nucleus, scientists reported today the American Space Agency (NASA).

“Continuing a history of surprising behavior, substance belonging to Comet ISON has appeared on the other side of the Sun, despite not having been observed during their approach,” said NASA Solar Observatory in his latest blog.

Two days after the passage near the Sun ISON, on 28 November, scientists were still debating whether the luminous powder was perceived in telescopes was just remnants of his encounter with the star or the core was Comet in its path away from the solar system.

“It appears that a part of the core ISON achieved through the solar corona, and re-emerge,” said Karl Battams, one of the scientists who followed the path of the comet.

ISON, first seen in September 2012 by Russian astronomers, is a special comet that comes from the Oort cloud, a bubble that surrounds the Solar System and, it is believed, is formed by the remains of the nebula that gave rise to the Sun and planets 4,600 million years ago.

comet, which has been traveling for at least a million years ago, its speed increases as it approaches the Sun, and it is estimated that the time of greatest velocity is 1.3 million kilometers (828,000 miles) per hour, just as it rotates around the star.

Facebook Twitter attack where it hurts and lets you save ... - Digital Journalist

The head of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, said in 2013 that he wanted the social network to become “the best designed newspaper in the world”, and that seems the general tone of many of his steps agreements with media , large and attractive images in publications and now the option to save the links want to read more calmly.

Twitter is the preferred social network addicts information and it seems, for now, unbeatable in this regard. But it does have an Achilles heel, known for his own team, working on ways to “rewind” its contents: excessive immediacy and constant flood of information on your platform. Perhaps this new feature of Facebook is a way to differentiate its social network of 140 characters and make it a place that is not simply to read news, but to also read of relaxed manner.

Some screenshots of the mobile version showing the alleged deployment of this new functionality in some Facebook accounts have been filtered to Blog «MyTechSkool ‘. They can see that a new option will appear, as the ‘I like’ or commenting-shaped button, which will allow this link remains stored in a list, each shared by one of our contacts in Facebook link to which we can access then from the main menu of Facebook.

option was already seen in one of the application updates for iPad and iPhone launched in 2012, only that in this, the links are kept pressing your finger over them. This new version incorporates a button itself. It is unclear how many users would be having longer access this option from their accounts, a spokesperson for the social network is limited to explain that the company “is always testing new features” and that, so far, does not have any announcement to make .

The “favorite” Facebook

Similar to applications like Instapaper for some, more like iBook to others, actually, this new option is equivalent to the incorporation of what browsers have always called “favorites” to Facebook

, only in one language, in line with the new trends, much more nature to the user, and adapted to this new role through which the social network seeks to become a place for reading news and online newspapers. In this case, you want to get inducing Internet users to not only scanned his wall news, but extend their interaction with him watching what interests them to read later.

Facebook refuses to heed those who say it is not a means for reading news, a study by Pew Research said, recently, that 78% of those who read a shared article on Facebook do ‘by chance “- and is determined to make its platform in a way to allow users to access the information that interests them and the media to promote their publications

First evidence of a new decay mode of ... - Publico.es

International collaboration

ATLAS experiment of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) just released the first evidence of the disintegration of the newly discovered two Higgs particles called tau, belonging to the family of particles that make up matter see in the universe. So far the LHC experiments had detected the Higgs particle by its disintegration into other particles called bosons, carriers of the forces acting in nature, while the decays into fermions evidence was inconclusive. This is the first clear evidence of this new decay mode of the Higgs boson, whose analysis in Spanish researchers have participated.

is the first time observed the Higgs boson decay into two tau

leptons

members of the ATLAS collaboration presented new results in a seminar at CERN on 26 November. They show for the first time with a level of certainty 4 sigma – best to proclaim a genuine observation is 5 – the Higgs boson decaying into two tau leptons (represented by the Greek letter ?). It is the first time this phenomenon has been measured in the Higgs boson.

Higgs boson is discovered in 2012 by the ATLAS and CMS LHC experiments revealed the existence of a new force field particle in nature. Also called the Brout-Englert mechanism-Higgs in honor physicists who proposed (two of them, Englert and Higgs, awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics and the Prince of Asturias Research). This force field is responsible for the origin of mass of elementary particles. Without this mechanism to generate mass, matter that makes up everything we see in the universe and ourselves could not form as we know it.

class=”despiece”> Compatible with standard Model

knew that the Higgs decays into one of two basic types of particles exist: bosons, responsible for interactions (forces) that occur in nature. The Brout-Englert mechanism-Higgs was proposed to explain the origin of the mass of these particles. However, the standard model of particle physics, the theory that describes the elementary particles and their interactions, postulated that the other basic type of particles, fermions, also acquired its mass by this mechanism.

Spanish scientists

IFIC, IFAE, IMB and UAM involved in the study

Now is the first time that scientists have clearly seen that the Higgs boson also decays into these particles, fermions, the ‘bricks’ that make up the visible matter in the universe (eg, electrons and the quarks that make up protons of an atom are fermions). In fact, the results obtained by scientists of the ATLAS experiment are consistent with the predictions of the standard model.

These results have been obtained with the data collected in 2012. Since its launch in 2015 after two years of maintenance, scientists hope to get many more LHC data, in addition to the energy function for which it was designed. Researchers at the Institute of Corpuscular Physics (IFIC, CSIC-UV) have been directly involved in this analysis, with an important role in the characterization of the background events, determination of statistical methods, multivariate technique definition and selection of the input variables , which have been crucial to achieve this result with a high level of statistical confidence.

Meanwhile, researchers at the Institute of High Energy Physics (IFAE) participants ATLAS experiment work on other channels to study the decay of the Higgs boson in other fermions (quarks top and bottom). In ATLAS also involved researchers from the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM-CSIC) and the Autonomous University of Madrid (UAM). In total, approximately 200 Spanish researchers involved in the LHC, grouped by the National Centre for Particle Physics, Astroparticle and Nuclear (CPAN).

The Sun, at its peak of activity but 'prudent' - CNN

Madrid. (EFE) -. Sun is now at its maximum magnetic activity , a period in which are recorded, although this time so weaker, a greater number of sunspots that can be seen as darker areas due to its lower temperature, reaching measure one of these spots to 150,000 miles.

The Sun has a cycle of eleven years (average), along which the magnetic activity varies between a minimum and a maximum. The first to observe sunspots with a telescope was Galileo Galilei and know that their number ranges from virtually none to over a hundred, decreasing again in about seven years.

“This maximum is still quite weak,” Hector has found Socas-Navarro, Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands, who has suggested that fluctuations in the business cycle can not yet predict.

There are only two groups led by Mausumi Dikpati and David Hathaway-”brave enough” to do it and do it solely based on statistical data, as Socas-Navarro. This time none hit, “and that this cycle is having a loose-half the maximum active than previously and at least partly historical because a hundred years there was so little activity during that period,” he asserted.

is that the Sun was “lethargic” mostly between 2008 and 2009, when 80% of the days not a single spot was observed. “We are focusing our efforts in knowing how fundamental physics,” said Socas-Navarro, who added that the challenge of astrophysics is to function as the weather.

The Sun has 4,650 million years and sunspots and eruptions occur “since the Sun is the Sun.” This was stated José Carlos del Toro, the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia, who matched Socas-Navarro that the challenge is to predict.

eruptions are not the same as solar spots, but have to do. These are explosions in the Sun’s photosphere that occur with increased brightness, the radiative energy and the violent expulsion of electrically charged particles.

“The spots are the store that provides the energy supplies for rashes,” according to Del Toro. When there is a special time of magnetic activity and numerous eruptions over sunspots-more-eruptions occur, the particles issued 1,000 or 2,000 miles per second may eventually reach Earth (solar storms).

Earth has a natural “coat” the magnetic field or magnetosphere to protect and deflect the particles toward the poles (this deviation causes the aurora borealis). However, when these particles are highly energy could overcome this natural shield and potentially damage the communications, which the company is now heavily dependent (can get hit with satellites).

Solar storms affect Spain’s high-latitudes is not among these countries-and the most powerful one recorded in 1859-no logbooks speakers of Northern Lights in the Caribbean. These can be predicted with only two or three days in advance, it takes the particles to travel to Earth.

Del Toro and Socas-Navarro agreed that it’s true about “sensationalism” It has come to talk about the solar storm of the century, which is not viable because you can not predict. The Spanish parliament after a socialist initiative in September 2012 expressed the need to create a European education and preventive catalog and a protocol to emergency scenarios arising from technical faults.

socialist regretted that the Government has not taken steps in this direction. Researchers have warned that what is needed is greater investment in basic research to delve into the prediction and make better equipment that can withstand the storms.

PlayStation 4: the best, but great games - The País.com (Spain)

On paper, the PlayStation 4 has no rival. Technologically it is more powerful than other next-generation consoles (Xbox One and WiiU) and has the overwhelming support of the public, judging by the enthusiastic reception in the U.S. and record it in Europe, where Friday is set to sale. An almost idyllic than Sony not enjoyed since the golden days of the first PlayStation (1995) and its successor stage, the PlayStation 2 (2000), which remains the best-selling in history, with over 155 million console. Also specialized media and, above all, studies that make games, have been responsible for inflating the phenomenon. Not a day goes by without some industry guru sing the virtues of the new PS4. It is clear that the wind blows in your favor.

What Sony has done well? And above all, what your competitors have done wrong? Mark Cerny, the brain behind the PS4 and seasoned programmer at Atari and Sega, among other companies, for six years sought the views of more than 30 studies to know exactly what hardware fit better with their creations. They were long conversations with the ultimate goal of designing a console that did forget the Playstation 3, the most unfriendly Sony machine to have its own exploit technology that greatly hindered its qualities.

PS4 sold in the U.S. a million units in one day. The Playstation 3 that it cost him two months

winks independent creators have also been key to building the current reputation of the new Play. Accustomed to a hostile environment, which seemed ningunear talent, independent labels now see how Sony opens all doors. Electronic entertainment giant hopes its partnership with artisans industry to serve a public shuttle more casual and sporadic.

take off the PlayStation 4 has greatly influenced the complicated gestation of the Microsoft Xbox One, with conflicting messages that have shocked many fans. “Currently, the advantage we have is three to one compared to Microsoft. PS4 With that gap will be higher,” predicts Armstrong. Faced with the dual soul of its competitor (middle console, media center half), the Playstation 4 claims to have been designed just to play. The other entertainment (watching TV, surfing the Internet, listening to music or share achievements with our contacts) are in the background. “PlayStation is the place to enjoy traditional games, big productions that are like Hollywood blockbusters,” sums Armstrong.

Sony expects to sell 5 million Playstation 4 worldwide in the next six months. “During that period who buy the console is the player most hardcore . That is our goal,” says Armstrong.

The advantage we have is three to one compared to Xbox. With that gap will PS4 superior “

remote gaming, ideal for times of crisis

Another major asset is called remote play, you can enjoy all the catalog for PS4 also go out on the Playstation Vita. Sony strategists rely on to breathe life into your laptop, which has gone unnoticed two years at the market. The current recessionary environment favors the romance between the two devices, according to Armstrong. “The phenomenon of the game on two screens is very interesting, especially in Spain, where the crisis because most younger than 30 years have not been emancipated and have to share the TV lounge with the rest of the family. Now may continue their games in the kitchen or in your room “

One of the duties of the game remains PlayStation Network. Now that the model is definitely a surcharge, Sony has no excuses and will have to improve the overall experience and performance of the servers, well below Microsoft’s offer. Sony will continue giving away games every month to those who pay the annual $ 50 fee for the connection, a strategy that has catapulted sales of Playstation 3. Resogun and Contrast (a game of puzzles and platforms with an air noir) are the titles chosen to inaugurate the Playstation Plus service in PS4.

Many analysts expect an early decline of traditional consoles, but seeing the vigor with which have debuted the new PlayStation and Xbox, these predictions have to park them, at least for some time. “In the games there are many vested interests, a lot of technology that struggles to control the market. We will continue doing what we know. Much is said, mobile phones and tablets gaming experience is not the same. In the world of technology, what goes down and everything goes down. Allah will say what happens in five years, “concludes Arsmtrong. Much has to change things so that, at least in Spain, playing video games longer play pley .

Part Ison comet seems to have survived, according to NASA - The País.com (Spain)

Ison comet, which has kept the attention around the world for their uncertain future as it approaches the Sun continues to surprise scientists. The space solar telescope SDO , with noted yesterday that NASA over comet borderline star, he saw no sign of the object emerging after the flyby and NASA gave him as “broken and evaporated” . However, in subsequent images taken with another space telescope, SOHO (NASA and the European Space Agency, ESA), a slight stain was seen in the area just where they were expected to emerged the Ison if he had survived.

Some experts raised that could be a cloud scattering remnants of fierce encounter with the star comet particles. But with the passing hours, has not dispersed the cloud and now NASA experts report that “comet material is seen across the sun, although having seen during its closest approach.” The open question is whether that cloud remains just about the comet or some fragment of its remaining core. The expert analysis of the U.S. space agency is following the comet “suggest that, at least, there is a small core intact.”

Along with the SDO and SOHO , NASA has also been watching the phenomenon with other space observatory. Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory

According

Sky & Telescope , the Ison emerged from its passage by the Sun “as a headless ghost,” referring to the cloud dispersed away from the star, and “is expected to disperse. ” Maybe it’s broken, but have been survived relatively large fragments that may end up vaporized and last a certain time, they said some experts to view images.

“It’s quite possible you are watching the trail of scattered stuff Ison and emitting small particles,” said Sky & Telescope Carey Lisse, comet specialist at Johns Hopkins ( USA), following the passage of the comet with the Sun “Another option, less likely, is that the comet has broken into large pieces, like the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 on Jupiter before rushing (in 1994), and they are shedding dust. The range of dust after perihelion [closest approach of the comet to the Sun] we see is what we would expect from dust that is under pressure from solar radiation and gravitational forces while doing spinning in a U-shape on the Sun. ”

SOHO data now seem to be more optimistic even with a cometary nucleus even across the sky, however small.

On the fate of the comet, a ball of dirty ice about four miles across, in your solar quote scientists had raised three possibilities: to burst and evaporate by solar radiation and the gravitational force of the star, which survive the encounter and then would look in a few days in the night sky, or were to fragment. The Ison came to 1.24 million kilometers from the Sun

“Over the year that researchers have been observing the Ison (and especially during its final approach to the Sun) and has won the comet unexpectedly lost luster,” says NASA. “Such brightness changes usually occur in response to material boiling out of the comet, and do different materials at different temperatures, so that give clues about the composition of the comet.”

Madrid. (EP) -. The TV NASA relays , Thursday, live step Comet ISON next to Sun . Which may be one of the most important scientific events of the year, can be followed through the web www.nasa.gov between 19.00 and 21.30 hours (Spanish time).

During that time, the rock will go just 1.1 million kilometers above the Sun’s surface in a cosmic maneuver that scientists around the world have been anticipating since the discovery of the comet in September 2012. Now the consequences of this step is expected. If ISON disintegrates or survives and becomes the brightest object ever seen from Earth, so far.

For this to happen, in early December, will see the rock from anywhere on the planet and at first sight, without telescopes or binoculars. Despite retransmission over the Internet, NASA scientists have said that “it will be difficult to predict exactly” is happening during the approach to the Sun

The U.S. space agency and the European Space Agency (ESA) have put their different missions dedicated to studying the star, recording the whole process in order to obtain all possible information about the comet.

ISON is making his first visit to the inner solar system from distant and icy Oort Cloud. Scientists say is a relatively pristine body, hence their study could reveal many details about the solar system, about how it was created and how it has evolved to the formation of planets.

“The Comet ISON is a relic,” he pointed from NASA, which has been compared to a dinosaur bone formation of the Solar System. “Comets are needed to build planets, and this comet has been in the freezer in the Oort Cloud from 4,500 million years ago,” says the agency.

ÁLVARO IBÁÑEZ ‘ALVY’

bitcoin surpassing the $ 1,000, many Internet-and not as Internet- wonder what’s the famous revolution “virtual currency” and it could be considered a reliable financial instrument that investing speculate or even save your nest egg.

Considering that the last time an article devoted to the subject in these pages two and a half years ago, the price of bitcoin was $ 6 would not have been bad business have invested 1,000 euros putting them into the piggy bank pig after the change to bitcoin. could change them back now for about 166,000 euros and buy a villa on the beach

Some of the unknowns surrounding bitcoin is clearance have gone over time, but the main problems facing bitcoin still there . So below is a quick overview in the form of comments, questions and answers.

If any of the explanations the reader seems complicated enough to change the word ‘bitcoin’ for a piece that will be less familiar, as ‘yen’ or even with another instrument of exchange accepted but less common for euros, as it could be ‘cigarettes in prison. “

1. People still do not understand what is Bitcoin .
This is one of the main problems that causes rejection simply because people tend to use not invest what you do not understand. All architecture is complex, with terms like ‘cryptography’, ‘codes’ or ‘mining coins’ most scared to strengthen its design to ordinary mortals.

However, paradoxically, people sometimes yes that invests in financial instruments that do not understand: the famous future , purchase options or preferred stock are good examples, just to scope of a minority, although in practice many people invest in them directly or indirectly.

2. Where is the support of large institutions While bitcoin
born a bit like “the virtual currency of internet geeks” has slowly been getting props: shops, specialized companies, small markets … There are even Internet stores and some medium-sized (and even “physical stores” in various exotic street or business) that accept bitcoin.

Recent weeks have seen how even the U.S. Federal Reserve has declared “legal medium of exchange” – although some believe that the weight of these words is the same as the one who says that “the chickens are a legal medium of exchange.” Bizarre that someone would accept today receive their wages in bitcoin, because the eternal question of whether it is all a big bubble will collapse suddenly and is still very present.

3. A self-managed economy.
One feature of Bitcoin is that there is no central bank accountable or save money … But, on the bright side, there is no one who can decide to print money out of nothing and destroying the global economy, which we know happens in the ‘real world’. However-and this really is a problem, have been banks bitcoin fade into nothingness, and with them millions of bitcoin belonging to thousands of users who have no one to complain.

April. It is a mathematically secure means, but …
There are always those who are not entirely agree. Academic papers have been published explaining that Bitcoin is vulnerable and could “break” even under a somewhat individual and extreme conditions. Would be precisely those conditions but you could find cheaters and thieves who wanted to take a quick profit

Another problem is that transactions are irreversible and can not be overridden (although virtual store could return the money as a credit if in agreement with an unhappy customer.)

5. Already have stolen handfuls bitcoin. There
users that have stolen thousands or millions of dollars with social engineering techniques, basically cheating “in person” to get your passwords and make fraudulent transactions.

6. There are plenty of rogues and ‘crackers’ taking advantage of people.
Security researchers from Kaspersky located with malicious software that could infect computers and put them to work as slaves in the mine’ minting coins ‘and sending the new coins to the creators of the software. There have been several such attacks.

7. The Bitcoin brand has been associated with fraudulent activities. The most notable
, closing Silk Road, a popular website known as ‘the eBay of drugs’. All sorts of illegal substances sold as the FBI began closing is estimated that about 5 or 10 percent of all bitcoin currency was being used at that site.

8. The Bitcoin market has little volume and is very volatile
daily ups and downs of two digits in dollar-trading bitcoin are the order of the day. It is not something that can be described as’ stable ‘precisely.

Even small movements for an economy as they can be sold for about 500 $ 170,000 bitcoin-one of many transactions in early November-represented a 3 percent rise instantly. Comparatively, and relatively speaking, would be something like the Spanish bag ‘jump’ 3 percent up or down every time someone buys a floor or high end car.

9 . Already ATMs to bitcoin.
At least one in Canada. Robocoin called and began to work about a month ago. 80 transactions per day for a total of $ 10,000 has come to break the record of a million dollars a day. The idea is to make it close and comfortable operations with the new currency and the creation of new accounts, while working on getting the trust of the people.

10. “Bitcoin is an experimental currency that can succeed or may fail. Neither expects its developers get rich with it.”
These wise words are official information in the form of answers to

Survive the comet Ison his appointment with the Sun? - The País.com (Spain)

real moment of truth for the Ison comet is very close. Maybe next Thursday afternoon, he passed almost brushing against the sun, breaking and vaporized, but you can survive and offer a few days later, a good show in the skies at the end of the night. Even it is possible to fragment, without disintegrating, and several pieces of comet look after the passage next to the star. For now, the Ison heads towards its rendezvous with Star guarded by numerous telescopes on Earth and in space. Scientists without key data such as the precise size or density of the object, can not anticipate what will happen with this dirty snowball that was discovered a little over a year, when he was nearly 1,000 million km from Earth and direct path toward the sun, but they will not miss the moment of closest approach to the star, when approaching to 1.24 million kilometers from its surface. They want to investigate what happens and have launched campaigns to observe the great scientific institutions, with several NASA space observatories, research centers worldwide and amateur astronomers.

comes from the Oort cloud, a “wrap” on the edge of the solar system

few days ago, when it seemed that he would not shine as much as expected, the comet suffered Ison, suddenly, a burst of activity and an increase in luminosity detected scientists from the Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia (IAA) coordinated by José Luis Ortiz. Shortly after a German expert from the Max Planck Institute have obtained some images of the comet in which structures such as wings Spread your hair stand out, they conclude that these apparent wings are due to have broken one or more pieces of Ison, but many scientists disagree with this interpretation.

“Ison reaches the confines of the solar system, has been traveling a million years and is about to reach the star that has been pulling it for so long”, abstract experts observing campaign of the NASA . It is the first time this comet travels to the vicinity of the Sun .. and last: morning or breaks due to intense heat, radiation and the strong gravitational pull of the star or, if it survives, will walk away never to return

delegations agreed text by replacing the word “commitments” to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases by established statewide decaffeinated the term “contributions” , which does not meet with the initial expectations of the EU but happy to most developing countries, and especially to India and China.

European Commissioner for Climate Action, Connie Hedegaard acknowledged that has been very difficult to reach an agreement during the summit in Warsaw but stressed the importance of having agreed a timetable for countries to submit their objectives emission reduction before the COP21 of Paris in 2015, and that all States to contribute to the effort to reduce emissions.

For its part, the Spanish Minister of Agriculture and Environment, Miguel Arias Cañete, said the consensus text should not be interpreted as “a waiver of achieving an ambitious, but as the result of a process of complex negotiations where all parties have had to accept compromise solutions “.

Proof of this is what you are focused on your machine functions television receiver and other associated services.

But that does not mean that the software giant has forgotten games, ground you will surpass the success of its predecessor, the Xbox 360 , which have sold more than 80 million units worldwide since its launch on November 22, 2005. Exactly 8 years ago.

Files basic pack

Within the basic pack

Xbox One the user will find the console, the new version of the Kinect sensor, a wireless controller, a headset, an HDMI cable and a current transformer (unlike PS4 is again external). Inside the console comes standard with a 500GB hard drive.

disc format used by Microsoft in this case happens to be the Blu-ray , play movies in this game also support allowing. Currently you can not play Blu-Ray 3D and also supports video and image resolution 4K, although it is likely that soon an update that fixes the latter is published.

Regarding what

games , while the previous Xbox 360 are not compatible with the new console because of its lack of backward compatibility. The Xbox One have a public sale price of 64,99 euros .

the back of the console you can find the port of LAN connectivity, HDMI input and output, the Toslink port, a dedicated Kinect and two USB 3.0 ports (which add another on the side of connector the console).

Behind his rugged appearance and dimensions and weight are considerably higher than those of PlayStation 4, lies the fact that, in essence, Xbox One no longer a PC stuck in a housing not too disengagement in the classroom. Technically console also has a very similar to a computer internal architecture, and the device may take more than one minute to turn it away

about PS4, graphic chip has much in common with that of a PC, but on paper and computational level, aspects such as the GPU or RAM are slightly more powerful machine in Sony. Will have to see how they manage development studies to be not too note this slight difference. If they fail it could happen more often than desired what happened to the game Call of Duty: Ghosts , which operates at a resolution of 720p, while PS4 is displayed at the highest resolution 1080p.

In this regard, Microsoft may still have an ace up its sleeve with everything on the cloud computing . One of the points most insisted the company: try it fill gaps in the machine with the possible advantages 300,000 servers that the U.S. company has developed not only to synchronize user data, but also speaks of the console could perform some of his calculations externally. The driving game Forza Motorsport 5 and its system of “Drivatar”, an artificial intelligence that is generated dynamically in the cloud from the behavior of the players at the wheel, could provide clues about this peculiarity Xbox One

The new Kinect
