The orbital module of the mission was engaged in shooting and visualizing the planet. In the eight months from November 2021 to July 2022, 14,757 images of Mars were received from the probe’s camera. The map allows you to see the surface of the red planet in detail.

Recall that the automatic Chinese interplanetary station Tianwen-1 was launched on July 23, 2020 using a heavy carrier rocket “Changzheng-5”. On May 15, 2021, at 1 am Beijing time, the Tianwen-1 probe entered the orbit of Mars, and already at 7:18 am, the descent module with the Zhurong rover successfully landed on the surface of the Red Planet on the Utopia Plain.

Some AMD processors may freeze after 1044 days of continuous

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

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.

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.

Perhaps Xiaomi also used a different camera sensor, keeping the resolution, but we don’t know about that yet.
