Who needs wallpaper?

Proud of your 85-inch home TV and think this is the pinnacle of technology?

So what about LG's new 325-inch screen, which more or less occupies an entire wall and can only be purchased by personal order from the company.

Although this micro-LED TV boasts 8K resolution, it also has a crazy price tag: if you want to install one in your apartment (villa? Castle?), You will have to part with $ 1.7 million, even before you consider its power consumption and routine maintenance.

It is also advisable to update the shipping company and the porters battalion (which will probably come directly from LG, but nonetheless), that the TV weighs about 900 kilograms, so it is advisable to be equipped with a crane.

By the way, LG is not the only company that offers monstrous wall-TVs.

Samsung is also promoting its The Wall series, which was announced earlier this year and is destined for the upper millennium.

Pleasant filtering

As part of Tiktok's efforts to filter out inappropriate content and prevent it from being exposed to minors, the app implements a new warning mechanism in its search engine, which will alert to problematic content.

From now on, when a user searches on Tiktok for terms or words that may display controversial videos, the search results will be blocked until the user approves their display.

Although the list of problematic words has not been published, one of the examples that Tiktok provided in her press release is (actually) the term "Scary Make-Up" - scary makeup - whose search results may, well, scare sensitive users.

Broke into the office

Microsoft has released an update file in the facility that fixes no less than 66 new security vulnerabilities, including a critical security failure related to Office files.

In general, the victims install malicious files on the victims' computers without their knowledge, after opening seemingly innocent office files (DOCs, etc.), which were sent to them by e-mail from dubious sources.

Anyone whose windows system is automatically updated should not worry too much, as the operating system should already be protected.

But if in doubt, you can always check for a new update that has not yet been installed by typing the words Windows Update in the Windows search bar, and continue from there as instructed.

And most importantly: never, but never, open files (or links for that matter) that were sent to you by email from someone you do not know and / or do not expect an email from.

Unfortunately, there are always people who still fall into the trap.

In New York green is practiced

As of 2035, New York State will ban the sale of gasoline-powered cars.

The law promoting the gradual transition to electric vehicles passed the New York Senate last week, aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the state by 85 percent by 2050. Currently, only about one percent of all new vehicles sold in New York are completely "green" (i.e. , Not hybrid), so the road to achieving the goal is still long.

As part of the revolutionary venture, in the coming years a wide and accessible network of electric charging stations will be installed in New York, which drivers can find in malls, parking lots, large food stores and other public centers.

In doing so, New York joins the states of California and Massachusetts, which will also prevent the sale of electric vehicles starting in 2035, in hopes of a greener future.
