Not so 'in the loop'? Study finds Gen Z employees barely understand office jargon

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Gen Z are among those least likely to understand corporate jargon, report claims Younger workers are struggling to fit in, in a remote work world Leaders should prioritize inclusion, not fancy jargon New research has claimed younger workers are feeling increasingly disconnected from their workplaces, with the average Gen Z worker understanding just 5.3 out of 24 common workplace phrases.

Insta360 says it wants to replace photographers with an ‘intelligent photography robot’ that will become ‘imperceptible’ — and it sounds like a nightmare for privacy and creativity

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Insta360 is the major player in all-seeing 360-degree cameras and is no stranger to innovation, also incubating the first 360-degree drone in 2025, the Antigravity A1 . In another first, Insta360 recently released a dual-lens compact vlogging camera, the Luna Ultra , which is a Wall-E robot lookalike that shoots 8K video, with neat detachable remote screen and mic. And if a recent post on Weibo by its founder and CEO Liu Jingkang, aka 'JK', is to be taken at face value, the company wants to lead us into a new era of camera altogether. The Weibo post by JK was picked up by The New Camera and after translation reads: “Our product vision is to build a ‘Cameraman’ — an intelligent photography robot capable of automatically composing shots and capturing moments like a professional photographer, allowing users to remain fully immersed in the present. ...

Solving the energy conundrum is key to unlocking the UK’s AI economy

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Recent evidence shows that energy cost pressures and a power grid capacity crunch risk becoming a bottleneck on the growth of the UK’s digital economy. A report by Oxford Economics for the Nuclear Industry Association warns that growing grid capacity constraints and uncompetitive industrial electricity prices could drive data center developers overseas. This comes as data center energy demands could increase fivefold by 2035 and data center operators face growing pressure for more sustainable energy in line with climate targets. This is driving many data center developers to explore alternative supply sources such as flexible contracts and Corporate Power Purchase Agreements (CPPAs) which offer affordable, secure long-term power. Yet many data center developers lack the resources to navigate these complex contracts or meet the high credit requirements. There ...

Exclusive: ‘The emotion is doubled, it's not reduced’ — the world's most famous referee insists VAR hasn't killed the joy of World Cup goal celebrations

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Pierluigi Collina retired more than 20 years ago, yet he remains the only match official most people on the planet could pick out of a line-up. These days, the chairman of FIFA's referees committee runs officiating at the biggest sporting event ever staged, and when I met him at FIFA's Miami headquarters, home to the Technology Command Center that acts as the tournament's nerve centre, the famous stare was replaced with a smile. The eve of the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina is a good time to look back at the tech at this year's tournament. For many fans, this has been the most contentious World Cup in history for officiating — quite a claim given previous tournaments served up the 'Hand of God', David Beckham's red card against Argentina in 1998, and Frank Lampard's 'ghost goal' against Germany in 2010. So ...

Heading to a festival? These are the best power packs to keep your devices juiced up

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Festivals pose a bit of a conundrum when it comes to charging. It's really useful to have a phone — for checking programs, finding friends, and snapping photos — but the days are long, and there's minimal access to power points. A power pack is your best friend, and below I've rounded up the best models for festival-goers. I've included a mix of options. There are compact, lightweight power banks that won't weigh your bag down and can charge your phone while you're using it. These can generally only manage two charges at the absolute maximum, so they're best suited to one- or two-day festivals, or festivals where you'll have overnight access to power. There are also larger power packs that offer multiple recharges, but which are generally too bulky and heavy to carry around all day. Our seasoned reviewers have tested all of the...
