After discontinuing the smaller 21.5-inch UltraFine Display, LG has released a new larger 24-inch UltraFine-labeled monitor in its place at the same $699 price point. If the launch of the new display flew under your radar, that’s probably because much of the spotlight was centered on Apple’s new 2019 MacBook Pro models, which launched alongside LG’s new display. This new UltraFine Display is like a combination of the UltraFine 5K and the older UltraFine 4K Display, and for the most part that’s an okay thing....

As 2014 comes to a close, there aren’t a lot of iPad Air 2-specific cases on the market, and some developers are already taking shortcuts — cutting extra holes in old iPad Air cases — just to get “iPad Air 1+2” products out. So when new cases are supposedly tailored just for the iPad Air 2, I’m interested in seeing how well they actually fit and protect Apple’s latest tablet, even if their designs are otherwise highly familiar....

A beautiful new weather app called Weather Line launched this morning in the App Store. Weather Line is designed for iOS 7, and it adopts the updated design language and icons introduced in iOS 7’s native Weather app. The app is also compatible with iOS 6 for those using older devices like the iPhone 3GS or fourth-generation iPod touch. It provides a much deeper level of detail than you’ll find in the default Weather app....

Clint Eastwood’s controversial Oscar-hopeful Richard Jewell hits theaters this weekend - here’s a guide to the cast and characters. Richard Jewell features an all-star cast that includes two Oscar-winners and a star with an uncanny resemblance to the real-life subject. Directed by Clint Eastwood, the film tells the story of the eponymous Richard Jewell, a low-level security guard who discovers a bomb at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. At first hailed a hero, Jewell soon becomes the subject of the FBI’s investigation into the attack....

Rim of the World attempts a new spin on the sci-fi adventure genre, but it fails to live up to, or set itself apart from, the movies that inspired it. As Netflix expands its originals library, the streaming service has made way for a variety of genre films, with the results being a mixed bag of fresh concepts and recycled premises. For its latest original film, Rim of the World, Netflix combines a young cast of misfit characters in the vein of The Goonies, Stand By Me and Stranger Things with an alien invasion plot reminiscent of Independence Day or Red Dawn (if the invading forces were aliens, of course)....

The Star Wars Skywalker saga will draw to a close next month when The Rise of Skywalker releases in theaters, with director JJ Abrams committed to giving the saga the sendoff it royally deserves. Fans are excited to see Rey, Finn and Poe Damaron again but others are hoping to get a glimpse of popular heroes such as Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Yoda again - despite the trio all dying in previous installments....

Lionsgate has released a trailer for director Aneesh Chaganty’s upcoming thriller Run. Back in 2018, Chaganty made a splash with his feature debut on Searching, a mystery-thriller starring John Cho as a single father trying to find his teenaged daughter after she suddenly disappears. The film was set entirely on computer screens and smartphones (among similar devices) and went on to become a box office hit, grossing $75.5 million on a budget of $880K....

iPhone 7’s lack of a headphone jack means more people than ever are considering an upgrade to new wireless, Bluetooth headphones. But if you don’t want to make the jump, or love your old headphones too much to part with them just yet, Griffin’s new iTrip Clip will let you add Bluetooth functionality to any set of 3.5mm headphones for $20. It’s certainly not the first Bluetooth adapter/receiver that works with 3....

Personal preferences differ enough that there’s no single style of iPhone case that’s “right” for every person. Some people prefer “playthrough” cases that always expose the iPhone’s screen; others like flip-style cases with lids that open like books. Today, we’re looking at two cases of each type for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus: Twelve South’s latest BookBook and Tech21’s Classic Shell with Cover are flip-style designs, while Tech21’s Classic Frame and Classic Shell are playthrough cases....

Rick and Morty will be returning in the near-ish future with season 4. Created by Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, Adult Swim’s dark, sci-fi comedy following the titular mad scientist and his grandson is one of the biggest shows on in the multiverse, and with 70 new episodes on the way, it isn’t going anywhere. Release Date: TBA Cast: Justin Roiland, Spencer Grammer, Sarah Chalke, Chris Parnell Directors: TBA Writers: Justin Roiland, Dan Harmon Last updated: February 17, 2019...

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=l6lYFO_tKlE&list=PLTR8zrKWyBqj5q-EbL8h_NDJWgd08wAHP] The highly-anticipated (and much-teased) Angry Birds Star Wars is now available in both the App Store and Mac App Store. Developer Rovio has long been working with the recently Disney-acquired LucasArts to bulk its popular app lineup with a Star Wars-themed iteration of Angry Birds that brings new creative and play experiences to the franchise. The latest Rovio title ditches the traditional exploding/flinging Angry Birds for a slew of new bird characters each wielding a unique weapon....

Rovio has announced details of its latest game in the Angry Birds series(Via Kotaku). The game is a turn-based role player, a significant departure from the mobile mini-game physics puzzler Angry Birds is known for. The game will feature turn-based combat and a crafting system — players can craft armor, potions and weapons. This item system will apparently be funded through a game currency, or via in-app purchases. The game is launching in Australia and Canada this week (likely tomorrow), with more countries to follow....

The KEF Egg digital wireless speaker system certainly lives up to its name. The shape of the speakers are a peculiar half-egg shape that make you question whether or not you should take them seriously. A quick listen, and that question is answered with authority. Despite the peculiar look, these speakers mean business in the sound department. Not only do these speakers sound good, but they also work well in a variety of different environments and with a variety of sources....

Netflix’s hit reality competition show Rhythm + Flow has already garnered a loyal fan base, and they are anxiously awaiting news of a second season. Unfortunately, Netflix hasn’t made an official announcement about the fate of Rhythm and Flow. However, the odds are in the series’ favor for a renewal. Despite not much information - or really no information whatsoever - being released about Rhythm + Flow season 2, and it not being confirmed for a renewal, it’s very likely that show will return in some capacity for a second season....

French site MacG is citing “reliable sources” in suggesting a minor refresh to the MacBook Air line-up next week. With Intel having updated its range of laptop CPUs, it seems likely the 11- and 13-inch machines will see a small increase in speed, from the existing 1.3GHz chip to either 1.4GHz or 1.5GHz. It’s also possible, though less likely, that Apple would increase the SSD size from the present starting point of 128GB....

As you’d expect, the animated sci-fi sitcom, Rick and Morty, mainly revolves around the dynamic duo whose names are featured in the title. Yet, that’s not to say there aren’t plenty of other interesting players worthy of recognition. Given the creative, expansive nature of the show, which often ventures into other planets and dimensions, there’s bound to be many amusing, colorful characters rife with potential. Some come with a level of depth, mystery, and entertainment value to such a degree that one could imagine them starring in a spin-off....

True lovers of CW’s popular teen drama Riverdale know how important the look of the show is. All of the mundane yet beautiful locations and pretty props are what make this show so visually pleasing. However, the most important aspect of it all is the choice of clothes the characters wear. One of the main characters of the show, Veronica Lodge, has some of the best outfits in the show. If you are a fashion lover like she is, then it can be very helpful to learn from how she dresses....

The Brydge Air is a slightly different beast to the ClamCase, being just a keyboard and not a full case. It still hinges shut in a laptop-like clamshell fashion, but there’s no rear protection on this one. That, as we’ll see, has both pros and cons … Looks & portability Looks are, let’s be honest, important. You don’t spend this kind of money on an iPad keyboard just to get decent typing performance: there are plenty of cheaper options for that....

Castro is a brand new podcasting app for the iPhone (available in the App Store for $2.99). It’s not an update to an existing podcast client. It’s a new app. It doesn’t have any legacy to anchor it down because it really is a fresh start. This distinction is important. My favorite stock apps on iOS 7 are the ones that feel like they weren’t built by the same people who designed their iPhone OS counterparts....
