A Apple novamente não conseguiu obter a suspensão do processo de cálculo de taxas para compras a partir de links externos em sua disputa judicial contra a Epic Games. O caso, como já informamos, será analisado pela Suprema Corte dos Estados Unidos em algum momento a partir de outubro — e a Maçã havia solicitado ao Tribunal Distrital Norte da Califórnia que suspendesse os trâmites até lá, mas o tribunal negou o pedido.
As informações foram divulgadas no X por Tim Sweeney, fundador e CEO 1Chief executive officer, ou diretor executivo. da Epic.
Apple's stay was denied! Now they have 24 hours to file their proposed menu of junk fees with The Court, and Epic will have 60 days to file our legal analysis in advance of a court hearing on the topic.
O pedido de suspensão da Apple foi negado! Agora, a empresa tem 24 horas para apresentar ao tribunal sua proposta de lista de taxas abusivas, e a Epic terá 60 dias para protocolar sua análise jurídica antes da audiência sobre o assunto.
Como também apontado por Sweeney, a Apple tem agora 24 horas para apresentar ao tribunal um esboço das taxas que pretende cobrar dos desenvolvedores pelo uso de opções de pagamento alternativas e por links externos para compras realizadas na web. A Epic poderá, dentro de 60 dias, apresentar uma análise da proposta de taxas da Maçã — e o tribunal decidirá o que deverá valer.
Sweeney fez uma segunda publicação sobre o imbróglio, questionando se a Apple vai “documentar honestamente seus custos com o tempo de revisores humanos e tentar recuperá-los?”. Alternativamente, ele sugere que a Apple pode “inventar noções novas e absurdas de custo, até então desconhecidas pela humanidade”.
Will Apple honestly document their costs for human reviewer time and seek to recoup them? Or fabricate outlandish new notions of cost previously unknown to mankind? Tune in 24 hours from now to find out.
Será que a Apple documentará honestamente os custos com o tempo de revisores humanos e tentará recuperá-los? Ou inventará noções de custo absurdas e inéditas para a humanidade? Fique ligado: a resposta virá daqui a 24 horas.
A Apple recorreu à Suprema Corte contra a referida decisão, que concordou em analisar o caso. A Maçã, em seguida, solicitou à magistrada a suspensão do processo na instância inferior, argumentando que a (futura) decisão da Suprema Corte poderá afetar qualquer trabalho realizado nesse meio-tempo.

Título: De parteras a profesoras de partos. Abecedario de las primeras alumnas de la Facultad de Medicina de Granada Autora: Enriqueta Barranco Castillo Editorial: Universidad de Granada Páginas: 276 Fecha de publicación: 2025 ISBN: 978-84-338-7530-3
Información editorial
En esta obra se detalla la evolución de la profesión de parteras a matronas y profesoras en partos en Granada durante el siglo XIX. Se enfoca en la formación académica de las primeras mujeres que asistieron a la Facultad de Medicina de Granada, destacando sus desafíos y logros. La profesión de partera se transformó significativamente en el siglo XIX, pasando de ser una práctica empírica a una formación académica formal en la Facultad de Medicina de Granada. Las primeras mujeres que asistieron a la Facultad de Medicina de Granada enfrentaron numerosos desafíos, incluyendo la necesidad de contar con la autorización marital y superar prejuicios sociales. La formación académica fue crucial para profesionalizar la práctica de las matronas, permitiéndoles adquirir conocimientos teóricos y prácticos necesarios para asistir partos de manera segura. Las matronas enfrentaron desafíos administrativos y legislativos, como la necesidad de legalizar su documentación y pagar tasas elevadas para obtener sus títulos. Algunos médicos y cirujanos jugaron un papel importante en la formación de las matronas, apoyando su educación y contribuyendo a mejorar la salud materno-infantil. La universidad libre de Córdoba tuvo un impacto temporal en la formación de matronas, permitiendo a algunas mujeres obtener su título antes de su cierre en 1874. La legislación sobre la enseñanza de matronas evolucionó, estableciendo requisitos como la necesidad de tener más de 20 años, estar casadas o viudas, y contar con la licencia de sus maridos. En la obra se describe un abecedario detallado de las primeras alumnas de la Facultad de Medicina de Granada, con información sobre sus vidas y carreras. La investigación se basó en el archivo de la universidad de Granada, la diputación provincial y el archivo general de la administración. Se resalta la importancia de reconocer el esfuerzo y la dedicación de las matronas, quienes contribuyeron significativamente a la seguridad de las mujeres en el momento de alumbrar a sus hijas e hijos.

As novelas verticais já são um fenômeno à parte na América Latina, e a Apple parece estar ciente disso: brincando com o gênero, ela disponibilizou no seu canal do YouTube “Nido de Villanas”, uma micronovela mexicana dividida em 14 partes e filmada com o iPhone 17 Pro.
Cada um dos 14 episódios, com duração estimada de 2 minutos, faz uso dos principais recursos de gravação do iPhone, como o modo Ação (Action mode), o zoom óptico de 8x ou até mesmo o modo de câmera lenta do aparelho.
A Maçã compartilhou um vídeo apresentando a produção:
Com uma trama “repleta de ambição, segredos e traições, na qual quatro mulheres estão dispostas a fazer de tudo para ficar com a fortuna dos Iturribiaga”, “Nido de Villanas” oscila entre emular as novelas mexicanas — referência histórica do gênero — e apresentar as principais funcionalidades de vídeo disponíveis no iPhone 17 Pro.
Esse enquadramento em termos de formato, diga-se de passagem, proliferado especialmente por estúdios asiáticos em plataformas de vídeos curtos (como o TikTok ou o Kwai) movimenta uma indústria que disputa a longeva hegemonia das telenovelas.
Foi o suficiente para que conglomerados conhecidos por sua dominância no segmento, como a TV Globo (no Brasil) e a Televisa (no México), oferecessem suas contrapartidas na transformação pela qual as novelas passam diante da mudança de hábito de consumo na América Latina e em todo o mundo. A opção da Maçã, evidentemente, carrega menos desse peso, mas demarca um possível interesse de presença nesse mercado.

Acapulco Imagen Awards recognition has given Apple TV’s bilingual comedy one more victory after its fourth and final season. The series leads the 41st Annual Imagen Awards with 13 nominations, placing its cast, directors, music team and production among the year’s most celebrated examples of Latino creative work.
The Imagen Foundation announced the nominations Thursday as part of its annual program recognizing Latino talent and representation across film, television, music, documentaries and digital media. Acapulco received more nominations than any other series, including recognition for Best Comedy Series and multiple acting and directing performances.
The awards organization also announced that actor, filmmaker, producer and musician Andy Garcia will receive its Lifetime Achievement Award. Garcia is separately nominated for his supporting performance in Landman, giving the ceremony another connection between a career-spanning honor and current screen work.
For Apple TV, the nominations extend the life of a series that completed its run in September 2025. Acapulco may have checked out of Las Colinas, but the Imagen Awards are giving the resort one more crowded week.
Acapulco Imagen Awards Reach Across the Production
The 13 nominations show how widely the Imagen Foundation recognized the series rather than concentrating only on its lead actors.
Acapulco is nominated for Best Comedy Series, while Oscar Almengor and Santiago Limón both received Best Director nominations. Javier Nuño and Joe Rodríguez were recognized for Best Music Supervision for Film or Television.
Enrique Arrizon and Camila Perez are both nominated in the Best Actor — Comedy category. Although the category name uses “Actor,” the Imagen Foundation placed performers of different genders together in the 2026 comedy field.
The supporting categories gave Acapulco an especially strong presence. Eugenio Derbez, Fernando Carsa, Carlos Corona and Cristo Fernández received Best Supporting Actor — Comedy nominations. Vanessa Bauche and Keyla Monterroso Mejia are nominated for Best Supporting Actress — Comedy.
That distribution reflects the ensemble structure that allowed Acapulco to run for four seasons. The series used Máximo Gallardo’s memories as its entry point, but Las Colinas worked because the hotel was filled with characters whose ambitions, friendships and disasters could carry stories of their own.
The show’s visual identity often received attention first. Its bright colors, resort setting and polished 1980s design made it easy to recognize within seconds. The Imagen nominations reach beyond that appearance and recognize the performances, direction and music that gave the setting its emotional rhythm.

A Final Season That Kept the Ensemble Moving
The fourth season returned to Las Colinas with two connected timelines. In the present day, Máximo worked to restore the hotel before its reopening. In 1986, his younger self tried to protect Las Colinas after a competing resort claimed the top position in Acapulco’s annual hotel rankings.
That structure allowed the series to close the distance between the ambitious young employee played by Arrizon and the successful older man played by Derbez. The final episodes had to complete character relationships, resolve the hotel’s future and explain how youthful choices shaped the life Máximo later built.
The Imagen nominations suggest the final season avoided becoming a farewell built only around nostalgia. Its actors remained competitive across several categories, and both nominated directors received recognition for guiding individual parts of the closing chapter.
Acapulco also maintained its bilingual identity throughout the run. English and Spanish were not treated as occasional flavor or a translation exercise. They reflected the characters, workplace and cultural setting. That helped the series reach an international audience without removing the Mexican identity at its center.
For Apple TV, that combination provided a comedy that could travel globally while remaining tied to a specific place and community.
Apple TV Earns Recognition Beyond One Series
Acapulco delivered Apple TV’s largest Imagen Awards presence, but it was not the service’s only nominated production.
Pluribus received a nomination for Best Drama Series, while Carlos-Manuel Vesga was nominated for Best Supporting Actor — Drama. The Morning Show earned nominations for director Miguel Arteta and supporting actor Nestor Carbonell.
Peter Dager of Stick joined Carbonell in the supporting comedy category, while Mariana Treviño received a Best Supporting Actress — Comedy nomination for the same series. Isabella Gomez was recognized for Shrinking, and Aimee Carrero received a nomination for Your Friends & Neighbors.
Apple’s animated series also appeared in the youth category, with WondLa and Wonder Pets: In the City both nominated for Best Youth Programming. Harvey Guillén received a Best Voice-Over Actor nomination for Shape Island.
The broader list reinforces Apple TV’s ability to attract Latino performers and creators across genres rather than through one designated cultural title. Drama, workplace comedy, animation and mystery all contributed to the service’s presence.
Acapulco remains the centerpiece because its 13 nominations represent recognition of an entire production, not a single breakout performance.

Andy Garcia Receives a Career Honor
Andy Garcia’s Lifetime Achievement Award gives the ceremony a different scale. His career has moved through major studio films, independent productions, television, directing, producing and music over several decades.
Garcia became widely known through films including The Untouchables, Internal Affairs, The Godfather Part III and Ocean’s Eleven. His performance as Vincent Mancini in The Godfather Part III earned him an Academy Award nomination, while later roles allowed him to move between crime drama, comedy, family stories and television.
His Imagen recognition also reflects a career shaped by Cuban American identity without limiting him to one type of role. Garcia has frequently spoken about cultural representation, creative ownership and the difficulty of bringing Latino-centered stories through the traditional Hollywood system.
The Lifetime Achievement Award arrives while Garcia remains active rather than functioning as a retirement tribute. His nomination for Landman places him directly inside the current awards field he is being asked to help represent.
That combination suits the Imagen Foundation’s mission. The honor recognizes longevity, but it also connects Garcia’s career with the actors, directors and producers building the next generation of Latino entertainment.
A Strong Farewell for Las Colinas
Acapulco ended after four seasons, which makes the scale of its Imagen recognition especially satisfying. The series did not need a fifth season announcement to extend its cultural presence. Its final production year generated enough work to lead an entire awards field.
The show also leaves Apple TV with a useful model for international programming. Acapulco was local without being narrow, bilingual without turning language into a gimmick and colorful without allowing its visual style to replace character development.
Its 13 nominations cover the exact areas that sustained that model: acting, direction, music and the series as a whole. The result is less like one last souvenir from Las Colinas and more like a full luggage cart.
Winners of the 41st Annual Imagen Awards will be announced during the ceremony in August. Acapulco will arrive with the largest number of chances, while Andy Garcia receives an honor that extends far beyond one performance or season.
The hotel may have closed its final television chapter, but the Imagen Awards have found 13 reasons to reopen the doors.

A newly published study in Nature Metabolism reports that brown fat can act as a hub of molecular messaging, using secreted microRNAs to coordinate physiology across the body. Researchers focused on brown adipose tissue—well known for its role in thermogenesis—and asked whether it also participates in long-distance communication via RNA signals.
To visualize and track these messages, the team employed brown-fat–specific RNA labeling in living systems. This strategy allowed them to connect RNA production within adipocytes to downstream effects elsewhere, moving beyond correlations toward a clearer map of inter-organ RNA traffic.
The central finding is the presence of a communication network mediated by microRNAs released from brown fat. These small regulatory RNAs appear to travel beyond the tissue of origin and engage gene-regulatory pathways in other organs, effectively relaying information about metabolic state.
Functionally, the work supports a model in which microRNA “dispatch” from thermogenic fat tunes cellular programs in remote targets. Such programs likely involve post-transcriptional regulation, a process microRNAs are known to influence by pairing with complementary sequences in messenger RNAs.
Importantly, the approach does not treat microRNAs as generic circulating molecules. Instead, the labeling confirms their brown-fat origin and strengthens the link between secretory RNA dynamics and systemic physiological outcomes.
The study also highlights the specificity of the messaging: not all RNAs are equally represented, and the labeled microRNA repertoire points to organized, tissue-defined signaling rather than random leakage.
Beyond mapping pathways, the results carry implications for metabolic disease research. If brown fat microRNAs can reshape gene expression in other organs, manipulating these signals could offer a route to modulate energy balance, insulin sensitivity, or inflammatory tone.
For now, the findings provide a blueprint for how RNA labelling combined with tissue specificity can uncover hidden layers of endocrine-like communication. As techniques improve, the field may move toward a broader “RNA connectome” linking organ behavior through secreted regulatory molecules.
Researchers describe their results as evidence that brown fat is not only a metabolic engine but also an information broadcaster. In the evolving landscape of viral-style science news, this discovery underscores how tiny RNA molecules can orchestrate large-scale biological conversations.
