Want to truly impress your family and friends this coming holiday season as well as into the new year? You will be able to do so without any issue at all with LG’s latest CineBeam Laser 4K projector. This second generation model will boast of Ultra Short Throw (UST) technology that offers a very minimal space requirement, and yet its compact design is able to project stunningly sharp 4K images on just about any decent flat surface, be it a wall, floor or ceiling.

Taking full advantage of UST technology, you might be surprised to find that the LG CineBeam Laser 4K can be placed just a little more than 2 inches from the wall, and yet it is able to project a 90-inch diagonal image. Should you want to bump up the screen size to 120 images, simply place it 7 inches away and you are good to go. Being extremely simple to use and efficient to set up, this particular space-friendly unit delivers stunning viewing experiences on a truly cinematic scale.

With hardware that delivers 2,500 ANSI lumens and 4K UHD resolution, the LG CineBeam Laser 4K ensures exceptionally bright and clear images as well as superb black level. The viewer would definitely feel immersed in that particular video clip or movie, and this model is also able to reproduce highly accurate colors thanks to its wide color gamut for a greater degree of realism. Being very small in stature, this projector can be easily moved and adjusted to suit different kinds of environments, further saving time for the user.

Visual accuracy is further enhanced courtesy of a 12-point keystone adjustment feature, where it eliminates image distortion that is more often than not the bane of many a UST projector. In addition, owners of the LG 4K UHD projector will have no shortage of content to watch, since it has a webOS 4.5 function that delivers convenient access to Netflix, Hulu and other kinds of 4K streaming services.

Standard connectivity options on the LG CineBeam Laser 4K projector include USB, Ethernet and HDMI ports, apart from wireless support that plays nice with external devices including a keyboard and mouse.

These Star Trek Spock Socks are completely logical. Allow me to channel my inner Dr. Seuss. Spock socks shock. They also rock. Whether on the outer rim or in dry dock. Be one of the flock and dress in Spock. It’s the fashion around the clock. Do you grok?

Okay, I make a terrible Dr. Seuss. Because I ran out of juice. My rhymes like a noose. Anyway, enough of that nonsense. I see you raising a Vulcan eyebrow.

So these Spock Socks have ears sticking out of their sides, which may not be very practical if you wear pants or boots since they’ll get in the way, but if you wear these with some Starfleet shorts and a uniform top you’ll be alright. I’m sure you won’t get any weird looks at all.

These bad boys are the logical way to keep your feet warm. They’re made of 80% Acrylic/17% Nylon/3% Spandex and 100% awesome. I feel like they are bound to follow this up with Romulan and a Ferengi versions. I can’t wait to wear Quark on my feet with his big Dumbo ears. I’d pay good Latinum for that.

The developers of RetroArch, an all-in-one emulation front-end that allows users to download emulator “cores” for a huge number of older consoles and which recently came to the Nintendo Switch, say it is coming to the Xbox One—and unlike other consoles, users might not need to risk jailbreaking their systems to set it…

No one likes spam messages, especially on their phones because notifications can be distracting, especially if they’re not from anyone important, like spam. However according to a report from Android Police, it seems that they have been tipped off that spam protection for Google’s Messages is starting to roll out for some users.

At the moment it doesn’t seem like it is a particularly wide roll out as some users are claiming that they have yet to receive it. It also appears to be a server-side enabled feature, which means that you don’t really need to do anything on your end to get it, although we imagine that you might need to have the latest version of Messages.

Now according to Android Police, it seems that there could be some privacy concerns regarding this feature. This is because according to Google’s support page, it seems that some info about your messages will be sent to Google first. “To help identify spammers, Google temporarily stores the phone numbers of people sending and receiving messages with you and the times they messaged with you.”

However Google stresses that your phone number or the content of the messages will not be stored, so there’s that. That being said, spam protection is a feature that can be turned on or off anytime you want, so if you’d rather Google not have any access to your messages, spam or no spam, then you might want to consider turning it off or perhaps find a different app.
