Re: New predictions for the timeline
The only thing about that is that anyone can from 2024 can create Mickey Mouse or use him doesn't it and reverting it back to 1909 technically means Disney does not exist too.wjfox wrote: ↑Tue Jun 14, 2022 2:45 pm 2024 – Copyright protection for Mickey Mouse expires

Well, Disney is more than just Mickey Mouse. Still, when it comes to the actual character, as I understand copyright law, Time_Traveler is correct. Still, wouldn't plots and dialogue in films featuring Mickey Mouse still be protected until their copyrights also expired?Time_Traveller wrote: ↑Tue Jun 14, 2022 2:56 pmThe only thing about that is that anyone can from 2024 can create Mickey Mouse or use him doesn't it and reverting it back to 1909 technically means Disney does not exist too.wjfox wrote: ↑Tue Jun 14, 2022 2:45 pm 2024 – Copyright protection for Mickey Mouse expires

2030 – The Metaverse has reached $5 trillion in value
"McKinsey’s preliminary forecast shows the metaverse has the potential to grow up to $5 trillion in value by 2030. It shows ecommerce as the largest economic force ($2.6 trillion), ahead of sectors such as virtual learning ($270 billion), advertising ($206 billion), and gaming ($125 billion)."

As I mentioned in status updates, I'll be doing a prediction for 10th generation games consoles.

I think that's a fair prediction, though they won't be confined to South Korea. The key enabling advance will be more energy-dense batteries.wjfox wrote: ↑Fri Jul 08, 2022 2:58 pm 2050 – Power armour and robotic patrol dogs are in use by South Korean police forces

By 2050, there will be powered, wearable exoskeleton suits that can operate for at least eight hours continuously on a single battery charge, and their batteries won't be larger than a briefcase. Some police and paramilitary organizations in rich countries will wear them.

This prediction for Cargo Sous Terrain, currently listed at 2030, will need moving to 2031...

... and perhaps mentioned as 2031-2045, or with a 2nd prediction at 2045 to mark its completion.
