YouTube TV has taken a big competitive step forward for sports coverage, just in time for baseball season, with the addition of NBA TV and MLB Network to the lineup. No increase in cost either, at least for now…
Read moreThis is way off topic, and completely random, but also so incredibly brilliant I had to share it. Make sure to click through on the date to read the whole stream. I couldn’t figure out how to embed the whole thing. Her name was Kanga and she was trouble. She came into my office as I was about to dip […]

I must admit that I haven’t been following Samsung’s QLED display lineup. It should be better than last year’s, and QLED is interesting, but the lack of Dolby Vision support and that it’s not OLED has dimmed my interest in them.

$1,500 for a 4K projector isn’t a lot of money. It’s actually very cheap considering how much you could, and quite recently had to, spend to bring home the same pixel count in a projector. That said, this guy appears to be falling short when it comes to the most important part – HDR. The BenQ HT2550 ($1,500) is one […]

There are quite a few really neat use cases for the addition of Google Assistant support to NETGEAR Arlo home security cameras, but I think the most interesting has to be Chromecast support. A simple “OK Google, show [camera name]” and it will stream the video to any Chromecast enabled device (TV, NVIDIA Shield TV, etc.). Awesome. Unfortunately, the whole […]

I’m sure that everyone here uses a password manager. It’s the safest, smartest way to handle all of those massive, unique, credentials that we use for all of our digital assets. It is a bit of a pain to setup, and use on a daily basis, compared to going for the trusty “1234QWERTY!”, but totally worth it; as we all […]
