2022-04-08 17:00:06 Meta is exploring the use of virtual currency Zuck Bucks and NFTs

The Zuck Bucks currency is apparently named after Meta founder, chairman and CEO Mark Zuckerberg. And it is unlikely to be a cryptocurrency. Instead, Meta is leaning towards injecting tokens into applications that will be centrally controlled by the company, similar to those used in gaming applications, such as the Robux currency in the game Roblox. Roblox has built a huge business selling Robux and Meta may try to replicate that success on their own platforms.

At the same time, Meta has not completely distanced itself from blockchain products as the company is also considering issuing and swapping NFTs on Facebook. According to the source, the company plans to launch a pilot project with NFT in mid-May. And shortly thereafter, Meta will test Facebook group membership based on NFT ownership as well as NFT minting. Open / Comment

2022-04-07 20:00:07 Protected Apple Watch will receive enhanced moisture protection

According to Bloomberg, the protected Apple Watch Explorer Edition will receive enhanced moisture protection. The announcement of the watch may take place at the end of the year. If with a regular Apple Watch you can swim in the pool or the sea (it’s better to rinse the watch after salt water), then the “protected” version will allow you to go diving or active water sports with the watch.

As Mark Gurman reported, the watch can get a rubberized case. In some ways, the model may be similar to the G-SHOCK. Actually, the Apple Watch will compete with this watch. Open / Comment

2022-04-06 19:00:06 Panasonic has developed an eco-robot that will make your home or office greener.

When creating Umoz, the developers crossed modern digital technologies with a biological component. The outer part of the eco-robot is covered with green moss, which is widespread in Japan.

Umoz lives offline, moves independently around the house or office, looking for the most optimal places for comfortable moss growth. The device works on the basis of a software algorithm, and external data is taken by built-in sensors for humidity and light intensity.

The developers claim that Umoz eco-robots can live quietly at home, in the office or in public places for years: the main condition is regular watering. Open / Comment
