By 2026, 25% of people will spend at least one hour a day in the metaverse
Gartner predicts that by 2026, 25% of people will be spending at least one hour a day in the metaverse, working, shopping, learning, socializing, and having fun.
“Vendors are already creating ways for users to replicate their lives in digital worlds,” said Marty Resnick, vice president of research at Gartner. “From attending virtual classrooms to buying digital land and building virtual homes, all these activities are currently taking place in different environments. Ultimately, they will take place in a single environment – the metaverse – with multiple destinations linked to technology and expertise.”
Gartner defines the metaverse as a collective virtual shared space created by the convergence of virtual augmented physical and digital reality. It is persistent, provides an enhanced immersive experience, and is device agnostic and accessible through any type of device, from tablets to head-worn displays.
Since no single vendor will own the metaverse, Gartner expects the virtual economy to be supported by digital currencies and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The Metaverse will impact every business that consumers interact with every day. In particular, enterprises will be able to improve the interaction between employees without having to create their own infrastructure. In addition, virtual events, which have gained popularity over the past year and a half, will offer more collaborative and exciting networking opportunities and workshops.

Some AMD processors may freeze after 1044 days of continuous operation

AMD Epyc processors of the Rome generation (the second generation of Epyc) revealed one curious feature. It lies in the fact that such a CPU can freeze after 1044 days of continuous operation.
This feature means that owners of servers based on such CPUs may need to reboot the server before the specified time in order to avoid system freezes.
The problem is related to the fact that the CPU core cannot wake up from the CC6 sleep state. That being said, AMD states that the crash time may vary depending on the spread spectrum and REFCLK frequency. The nature of the problem is of a hardware nature, so, unfortunately, it will not be possible to fix it.
In addition to rebooting, there is a second method to avoid freezing: disable CC6 sleep mode.
In general, in most cases, this problem will not affect server owners, since maintenance and installation of security updates usually occur much more often, including requiring a reboot. However, in case someone uses the Linux hot fix feature to upgrade without rebooting, they may encounter the above problem.

The updated eighth generation Volkswagen Golf was first shown without camouflage. He has a huge “TV” on the front

It’s no secret that Volkswagen is preparing an updated eighth-generation Golf – it should debut at the end of this year (or early next) and will be sold unchanged until 2028, after which it will go down in history. And now, for the first time, the updated Golf (and even in the plug-in hybrid version) was captured without camouflage – it winds kilometers somewhere on the roads of Germany.
Since we are talking about a mid-term update, there are no special innovations in the exterior. The car will get narrower headlights, a slightly modified front bumper, taillights with new graphics.
But in the cabin of such a car (Golf eHybrid is one of the top versions of the model) a media system with a huge screen is installed. The company does not officially name the size of the diagonal, but, apparently, a 15-inch screen is installed as in the ID electric liftback. 7. But if for a large ID. 7 (we recall that it is the electric successor to the Passat) such a display is still somehow appropriate, but for a Golf it looks very large.
It is also noted that the touchpads on the steering wheel, which Golf owners complained about, have been replaced with conventional mechanical buttons.

Xiaomi has changed almost nothing in two years, but added 27% to the price. Redmi 12 appeared on high-quality images in three colors

High-quality images of the Redmi 12 smartphone have appeared on the Web in several color options. Judging by the abundance of leaks, the novelty will go on sale in the very near future.
As you can see, the device will be available in at least three colors: black, blue and gradient silver.
Resource Winfuture confirms recent leaks regarding the characteristics of the smartphone. The novelty will receive a 90-Hz screen with a diagonal of 6.79 inches, SoC Helio G88, 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of flash memory, a 50-megapixel main camera and a 5000 mAh battery with 18-watt charging. As we have already noted, in comparison with Redmi 10, which debuted almost two years ago, the only important difference is the significantly enlarged screen. Perhaps Xiaomi also used a different camera sensor, keeping the resolution, but we don’t know about that yet.
At the same time, Redmi 10 started at a price of 165 euros, and almost the same Redmi 12, which looks much more outdated for 2023, will cost 210 euros in Europe.
