The Samsung CHG90 49″ HDR LCD Monitor might just check all the boxes as the right display

Each week, I spend a lot of time in my home studio editing photos and videos, and I rely on the four monitors that I use to create a multitasking environment. It is a bit tedious using four monitors for my workflow, and I would much prefer to just have two. My concept relevant to my workspace and workflow is to have one large high-resolution curved monitor, and one flat 4K monitor. While this arrangement may sound weird to some, it would work great for me.

I have been researching large high-resolution curved monitors, and I came across the Samsung CHG90 49″ 32:9 Curved 144 Hz FreeSync HDR LCD Monitor. Now I know that this monitor by the manufacturer’s description is designed more for the gamer than the editor, but I do wonder if it will work for me both for its size and its specifications. It is obvious that the real estate would work well for me, but the jury is still out on its functional ability for editing, until I can actually see it in person and ascertain how well it can properly reproduce true colors, etc.
According to the manufacturer’s specs, it is equipped with AMD FreeSync 2 technology, has a 1 ms response time, and a 144 Hz refresh rate. It has a built-in USB 3.0 hub with 1 x USB 3.0 (upstream) and 2 x USB 3.0 (downstream), 2 HDMI ports, 1 DisplayPort, 1 Mini DisplayPort, 1 3.5mm Audio-in port, and a headphone jack. It is also wall mountable.

Attenuo is a minimalist wallet that makes everything click

I love my IDENTITY Card carbon fiber minimalist wallet, but there’s something about the Attenuo wallet that is really calling my name. Made from one piece of Aircraft Grade 6061-T6 Aluminum Alloy in either gunmetal grey or black, the Attenuo wallet can hold a maximum of 6 embossed cards or 8 flat standard sized credit cards. It will also hold a folded dollars, receipts, and notes.

I think the reason why this minimalist wallet is calling my name is the click that you hear when you slide the cards in place. I guess I’m a sucker for audible feedback. You can buy an Attenuo wallet for £30.00 ($40.41 US) at attenuo.com.

Aerate wine twice with the Twist Decanter

Some wines benefit from extra aeration, more than you would get from just pouring a glass from the bottle.  Other wines benefit from decanting to remove sediment – and of course, decanting provides some extra aeration, too.  If you want to be sure your wine is good and aerated before serving, you need the Twist Decanter.

The decanter is made of borosilicate glass with a stainless base.  Its indented, swooping shape increases the aeration as you pour the wine from the bottle.  Those same features aerate again when you pour a glass.

The Twist Decanter is available in a 12.7 ounce size (8.75″ tall x 4″ diameter) to hold about half a bottle of wine for $29.99 or a 25 ounce size (11.4″ tall x 5.3″ diameter) to hold a full bottle of wine for $49.99.  Purchase the Twist Decanter at UncommonGoods.

The Poweradd ChargerCenter portable generator can power your essential gadgets thru the next storm


A few years ago when Hurricane Sandy tore through New York City, I was one of the folks who listened to the initial reports from officials, and based on previous hurricane forecasts, felt that the supplies I usually kept at home would be enough for the possible few hours of power outages I expected. Much to my surprise, and to the surprise of most New Yorkers, the devastation to the power grid was much worse, and the few hours of blackout turned into 14 days.

As a techie, I had a couple of small USB power packs fully charged and at the ready, but by the second day, they were fully depleted with no way of recharging them in the house. I then started charging my phones in my truck, but it was low on fuel, and I watched the fuel gauge drop lower as my phones got a relatively minimal amount of charge.

Determined to never be in that situation again, I have kept an eye out for better charging solutions. Just today, I was online and I looked at the Poweradd ChargerCenter, Compact 185Wh/50000mAh Portable Generator, Power Source (DC 5V/12V/19V) with AC Power Inverter (115V/100W). This power source is good for outdoor power when camping and hiking, etc, but I am more interested in it for my indoor needs during the next power outage or storm. With its 50000mAh battery and its 110 volt inverter, it can keep power going to all of my mobile devices, and even a small refrigerator (up to 100 watts). However, I figure that if I restrict it to charging and powering my mobile devices, I should get days of power from it. While I would obviously test this product before committing to it as my “go to” backup source, its specifications certainly look very promising.

If you would like to read more about the Poweradd ChargerCenter, Compact 185Wh/50000mAh Portable Generator, Power Source (DC 5V/12V/19V) with AC Power Inverter (115V/100W, or you would like to purchase one, head over to Amazon and check it out. It sells for $149.99.
