LG Updates Its UltraFine 5K Displays with iPad Pro Support

Electronics giant LG has announced an update to its line-up of UltraFine displays — the monitors that Apple says are the best external displays for its current MacBook Pro line-up.

With the new update, the UltraFine displays now support USB-C connectivity as well, in addition to the Thunderbolt 3 connectivity they have offered since launch. Thanks to this change, the displays now support Apple’s powerful new USB-C enabled iPad Pro.

The update also increases the power output via the Thunderbolt 3/USB-C port to 94 watts.

Either way, users will now be able to use the UltraFine 5K displays with their iPad Pros, however, there’s no word on the maximum resolution that the iPad Pro will be able to drive over USB-C.

Apart from these changes, the UltraFine displays are the same as their predecessors, with exactly the same design and build, and features such as support for Apple’s True Tone, when connected to a compatible, True Tone enabled device.

LG recently also announced a lower-resolution, 24-inch 4K UltraFine display, and the company also has a 21-inch UltraFine 5K display in its portfolio, so consumers have a ton of choice, if they want to go with LG’s offerings, that is.

The UltraFine 5K is available from Apple’s website, and in Apple Stores for $1,299.95.

Twitter Wants to Build an ‘Open and Decentralized’ Social Media Platform

In an attempt to create a Facebook competitor, which everyone flocks to, Twitter became increasingly centralized over the years. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey believes that’s the case and has now tweeted a lengthy plan to fund research to build an open and decentralized standard for social media platforms. It will “ultimately become a standard” that Twitter’s client will be based upon. Dubbed Bluesky, this project will see a team of up to five researchers , which could include open-source architects, engineers, and designers, being on-boarded in the near future. Currently, Bluesky has no team members but Dorsey tweeted that Twitter’s CTO Parag Agrawal has been tasked with finding a lead. The folks over at Firefox have already extended a helping hand, saying how the non-profit has contributed to decentralization. Enough jibber-jabber, but what exactly is Bluesky? And what does it intend to achieve? Dorsey, in his tweetstorm , states that the challenges being faced by centralized social

Mysterious Drones Spotted in Colorado and Nebraska; Sources Unknown

A group of drones was reportedly been spotted in the sky at night last week in Colorado and Nebraska that made the residents anxious and worried. The police officials in charge have no idea regarding where these drones are from. “They’ve been doing a grid search, a grid pattern. They fly one square and then they fly another square,” Colorado’s Phillips County Sheriff Thomas Elliot told the Denver Post. The drones have an approximate six-foot wingspan and stay 200 to 300 feet away from buildings. At least 17 drones have been spotted till now. They appear at around 7 PM at night and disappear at around 10 PM . Until now, the drones have not been caught doing any illegal or unofficial activities. “They do not seem to be malicious. They don’t seem to be doing anything that would indicate criminal activity,” Sheriff Elliott added. The Federal Aviation Agency, the Air Force, Drug Enforcement Administration, and US Army Forces Command confirmed that the drones did not belong to them.
