The desktop gadget uses ultrasonic waves to place sound just outside the ears, so even though it looks like a small speaker, users won’t hear anything coming out. On its website, the company explains how SoundBeamer uses a built-in 3D sensing module to track the position of your ears in real time, then sends the ultrasonic waves to “converge into small pockets of sound” near your ears....

Rogan may or may not technically be a Spotify employee, but in spirit, he is. The Swedish music-streaming company pays him to produce an audio show. And that’s the problem. If Spotify, Tidal, or Apple Music streams explicit music from a misogynistic rapper, no one blames the delivery platform. They’re just the pipes through which the dirt is delivered. But Rogan is not only paid by Spotify to do exactly what he’s doing—he’s also their figurehead podcaster....

With that in mind, you won’t go wrong if you just buy the Acer Aspire TC-895-UA91. You’ll need to add a monitor and any apps you might want to run, but other than that, it’s a solid deal that won’t break the bank. This tower computer comes complete with everything except a monitor. A few features caught our attention and pushed it to the top: It’s got a SSD (Solid State Drive, so is rather like a giant USB stick with silicon memory rather than a spinning disc) rather than an old-fashioned Hard Disk, so the system should feel more responsive, along with a DVD player/burner, and plenty of ports for anything you might want to plug in....

Boosters work by feeding off the service you already have. These devices use larger, additional antennas in addition to the one included with your phone or other mobile devices. Keep in mind that a signal booster helps when the signal is weak. Unfortunately, a booster is not effective in a dead zone where there’s no cell signal at all. In evaluating cell phone signal boosters, we closely examined range, frequencies, cellular networks, antennas, and ease of installation....

Receivers should have lots of HDMI ports to be able to support your entire setup. They should also be able to connect to and amplify all of the speakers in your system. If you have a 7.1 surround sound system for instance, you’ll need a receiver that supports that type of setup, as some receivers only support 5.1-channel surround sound. You’ll also want to make sure your receiver supports the video and audio technologies you plan on using, so keep an eye out for 4K support, as well as different audio tech like Dolby Audio....

Why are there two numbers and what do they mean? The answer to that question is complicated and gets pretty technical, so let’s take a look at each. What Are Effective Pixels? Digital camera image sensors consist of a large number of tiny sensors that collect photons. The photodiode then converts the photons into an electrical charge. Each pixel associates with a single photodiode. Effective pixels are the pixels that capture the image data....
