LG stops making Blu-ray players

The article says Samsung also exited the market, something that I had not heard. I guess I should make it a priority to buy a 4K player while they're still available! I've been thinking about it for some time, even though I do not yet have a 4K TV it's all HDMI and apparently the player will down-sample the output to match the TV.

There's also a film called Coyote vs Acme in the can but unreleased, if this does well, we might see the other.

Apple AirTag locations can now be directly shared with United Airlines

Now, at least with United and partner airlines like Lufthansa, there's one less excuse if your bags get lost. Tell your phone to share the location with the airlines - and the link expires 7 days later - and theoretically you'll be reunited with your bag sooner!

This does require iOS 18.2 and at least an iPhone 10.

I have been fortunate in my travels in that I've never lost my bag, but in my latest trip to DC I bought a lovely new Away case and planted two AirTags in it: one is obvious and easily found, the other is taped directly to the case inside the liner. And I shared both of them with my wife, so if something happens to me, she can find my luggage, too!
