It's Tuesday, February 25, 2020. Hey, good morning! You look fabulous.  Nearly every day, there’s at least one post I always see on social media: What’s good to watch on Netflix? Despite all the money and time invested in creating a recommendation engine and a library of content that should be able to satisfy anyone, people still can’t find something to watch and just want a recommendation from someone else. Or, they want to get in on something with built-in popularity that makes for good discussion -- even if the quality is questionable (see Love is Blind and its highly anticipated season finale later this week). Now, nearly a year after CEO Reed Hastings said his company will lean more into sharing viewer data, Netflix has launched Top 10 lists worldwide. They’re specific to each country and update every day across three lists: overall top ten, top TV shows and top movies. Are they interesting enough to cure boredom and keep viewers from clicking over to another app? It’s hard to tell, but the thing I can’t explain is how two holiday-themed movies (Grinch and A Bad Mom’s Christmas) snuck on to Tuesday’s top list in late February. Y’all are weird. -- Richard (View in browser.) 12 teraflops GPU with ray tracing, low latency controller tech and more.  Later this year, the next-gen game consoles will launch, and Microsoft kicked off the 2020 marketing push by confirming some things about Xbox Series X. SSD? Got that. Suspend and resume that works on multiple games at once? It’s in there. Can it automatically download the right version of a game, no matter which version of Xbox you originally purchased it for? Meet Smart Delivery, it’s handled. Oh, and third parties are getting into the buy-once-play-across generations party, too, with Cyberpunk 2077 jumping out as the first one to announce it will work that way. We still don’t know minor details like hard drive capacity, what that mystery slot in leaked pictures is for or how much it will cost, but it has laid down a gauntlet. Sony, whenever you want to talk PS5 specifics, we’re ready to listen. | | All the PCI Express, Afterburner and LR-DIMM details you can handle.  Bringing home Apple’s professional-focused desktop computer and display won’t be cheap or easy, but you can get familiar with the details of both products for free. That’s thanks to two white paper documents Apple released Monday, listing pretty much anything you might want to know about their capabilities and compatibility. The papers cover everything from how Apple fights blooming on the Pro Display XDR to recommended Mac Pro configurations, so fans of the company’s hardware should set aside a few minutes to take a careful look. | | No Google Play, no fun.  Huawei’s MWC package of announcements have happened without MWC happening. First up, a classy 10.8-inch tablet with companion M Pencil stylus and keyboard folio. There are cameras on both sides and as well as fast charging and wireless charging capability, the MatePad Pro (no marks for originality there) can wirelessly charge any phone. That’s pretty cool and useful. What isn’t is the lack of apps and Google services, yet again. The hardware is very tempting, but the idea of getting elbows-deep with sideloading apps is not. | | Sponsored Content by Stack Commerce | |
