| LG’s new ‘QNED’ TVs will have up to nearly 30,000 tiny LEDs behind the screen Posted: 28 Dec 2020 07:00 PM PST  LG might be the company that's most synonymous with OLED TVs, but tonight it's announcing what to expect from its LCD-based sets in 2021. Like other manufacturers including TCL have already done (and Samsung is expected to soon join in on), LG is adopting Mini LED technology for its premium LCD 8K and 4K TVs coming next year. LG says Mini LED allows for "a giant leap forward in LCD TV picture quality." The best LCD TVs today have what's called "full-array local dimming," where LEDs — in some cases hundreds of them — serve as the backlighting behind the screen. These can be controlled in zones, and each zone can be dimmed as appropriate for dark scenes, which helps improve black levels and contrast. Mini LED changes up the strategy a... |
| Coinbase halts trading of XRP following SEC suit against Ripple Posted: 28 Dec 2020 05:44 PM PST  Coinbase announced today that it is halting all trades of XRP on its cryptocurrency exchange, according to an official blog post (via Coindesk). Certain kind of trades became restricted today, and the full suspension will go into place January 19th, 2021 at 10:00AM PT. Coinbase is the largest cryptocurrency exchange, and suspending a currency like XRP naturally casts doubt on the currency's future, even before the SEC lawsuit over it is settled. Coinbase says it made the decision to suspend XRP "in light" of the suit the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed against XRP's original creator, Ripple. With the suspension in place, people will no longer be able to trade XRP on Coinbase, though they will still be able to deposit... |
| Google inexplicably takes away wide-angle astrophotography from Pixel phones Posted: 28 Dec 2020 05:35 PM PST  Pixel 5 and 4a 5G users can no longer use their ultra-wide cameras to take pictures of the stars: Google apparently removed the lens's astrophotography capabilities with the Google Camera 8.1 update. The feature was a selling point of the Pixel 4, and was available on the regular and telephoto cameras. When the 4a 5G and 5 were announced with new wide-angle lenses, the feature was added to those as well. Now it's been taken away. The astrophotography feature lets users capture the night sky by pointing their phone up and keeping it still, either by balancing it on a nearby object or putting it on a tripod. The feature is still available on the phones' other cameras, but if you go to Night Sight mode and switch to the ultra-wide angle... |
| Your car may be recording more data than you know Posted: 28 Dec 2020 02:52 PM PST  When we think about privacy and who can access our location data, we're often focusing on our phones, and not on the machine that actually takes us places: our car. A recent report from NBC News goes into just how much data is collected by our vehicles, and how it can be used by police and criminals alike. Your car, depending on how new it is and what capabilities it has, could be collecting all sorts of data without your knowledge — including location data, when its doors were opened, and even recordings of your voice. The NBC article uses the example of Joshua Wessel, a man who's been charged with murder because the victim's truck has a recording of his voice at the time of the killing. The report also looks at a company called Berla... |
| In 2023, you won’t be able to fly most drones in the US without broadcasting your location Posted: 28 Dec 2020 01:45 PM PST  If you intend to fly a drone in the US, you're going to want to pay attention: the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) just issued the single biggest set of changes to US drone law since the agency first took an interest in the technology. With the proper license, you'll soon be able to fly at night and over people. But the biggest change is this: in 2023, it may be illegal for you to fly some drones at all unless you retrofit them with their own broadcasting equipment. In 2022, the US government will require every new mass-produced drone weighing over 0.55 pounds (0.25kg) to broadcast your location — and I do mean your location, not just the location of your drone. You'll also be broadcasting an identification number that law... |
| TikTok’s one-night Ratatouille musical will star some of Broadway’s biggest names Posted: 28 Dec 2020 01:39 PM PST  Ratatouille: The TikTok Musical has some big Broadway talent on board for its January 1st streaming performance. Adam Lambert, Wayne Brady, Kevin Chamberlin, Mary Testa, and Priscilla Lopez will play key roles, with Tituss Burgess starring as Remy, the sophisticated rat who loves fine food.
The one-time only performance will benefit the Actors Fund. Based on the 2007 Disney-Pixar movie Ratatouille, the musical came together on TikTok, with creators composing songs based on the original film, building the "show" piece by piece. Emily Jacobsen (@e_jaccs) made the original "Remy the Ratatouille" song for TikTok, and composer Daniel... |
| New York Post’s Hunter Biden laptop source sues Twitter for defamation Posted: 28 Dec 2020 01:24 PM PST  A computer repair shop owner cited in a controversial New York Post story is suing Twitter for defamation, claiming its content moderation choices falsely tarred him as a hacker. John Paul Mac Isaac was the owner of The Mac Shop, a Delaware computer repair business. In October, the New York Post reported that The Mac Shop had been paid to recover data from a laptop belonging to Joe Biden's son Hunter, and it published emails and pictures allegedly from a copy of the hard drive. After the Post's sourcing and conclusions were disputed, Facebook and Twitter both restricted the article's reach, and Twitter pointed to its ban on posting "hacked materials" as an explanation. Mac Isaac claims Twitter specifically made this decision to... |
| Trump administration appeals yet another TikTok ruling Posted: 28 Dec 2020 12:21 PM PST  The Trump administration has gained some experience losing in court recently, and has suffered setback after setback in its stance that TikTok should be banned in the US. Still, its pursuit of the video sharing app continues. On Monday, the Department of Justice filed an appeal of a judge's order that blocked restrictions on TikTok in the US from taking effect. US District Judge Carl Nichols issued an order December 7th that blocked the Commerce Department's restrictions on TikTok, which would have prevented new downloads of the app from US app stores. Nichols' order followed an October order from US District Judge Wendy Beetlestone in Pennsylvania, who issued an injunction against the ban. In that case, three content creators had... |

| After stumbling with one film universe, DC is trying for two Posted: 28 Dec 2020 11:50 AM PST  There are about to be way, way, way more DC movies — and some will be released as HBO Max exclusives. Following the release of Wonder Woman 1984 last week, DC Films president Walter Hamada sat down with the New York Times to talk about the studio's more aggressive release strategy. Starting in 2022, DC Films plans to release up to four films theatrically every year, with one or two extra as HBO Max exclusives. Currently, DC releases about one or two movies a year, and seen mixed success. Birds of Prey and Shazam! failed to perform well, while Aquaman and Wonder Woman saw impressive box office return. In 2019, Warner Bros. also saw tremendous success with Joker — a movie not tied into the greater DC universe that nonetheless became an... |
