This week we help you find ways around the Netflix password sharing crackdown and we look at the best OLED TVs according to Tom's Guide and we help you decide if an upgrade to wifi 6E is in order. We also read your emails and look at the week's news stories. News: GE Lighting's Neon-Shape Smart Lights Now Available Sony's Latest Dolby Atmos Soundbar Could Be A Serious Sonos Beam Gen 2 Competitor YouTube TV grants users unlimited simultaneous NFL Sunday Ticket streams Comcast's New $20 a Month Streaming Service With 40 Live Channels, Peacock Premium & More Is Now Available Other: Streaming services are removing tons of movies and shows — it's not personal, it's strictly business BestJoy SuperRemote Review  - A Home Assistant Friendly Remote! Three crafty ways YOU can get around Netflix's crackdown on password sharing Netflix finally cracked down on password sharing this week, sending 'freeloaders' hysterical — but savvy users have already come up with an easy workaround. Full article … Just don't log on to Netflix via your smart TV or streaming box - Netflix defines what they think of as your household by the preferences you manage on the main TV you use, whether it's a smart TV, like Roku, or a streaming box, like AppleTV or Amazon Fire Stick.  Set-up auto-forwarding for the email verification codes - Netflix set up a roadblock and sends the account's primary owner a verification code every time they or someone else tries to log on from a new wireless network. There are many easy ways to have all those verification number emails, from info@account.netflix.com, auto-forwarded to your distant, beloved household members and friends Log-in on the account holder's Wi-Fi - Because Netflix uses the IP address and wireless of the primary account holder as part of its definition of the household, you should be in great shape if you can log into Netflix, at least once in while, from the Wi-Fi connection at the account owner's home. Best OLED TVs in 2023: LG, Samsung, Sony and more The best OLED TVs are coveted for their excellent picture reproduction, phenomenal motion processing and top-of-the-line upscaling. With unbeatable black levels and perfect contrast, they offer a cinema-like experience for not that much more money than a traditional LED-LCD or QLED TV. Full article here… Wifi 6E Do you Need it? Wifi is a big part of our home theaters. Not everyone has a wired connection at every entertainment area or speaker location. So wifi picks up the slack. As we have seen first hand, too many devices result in some wonky wifi. And with so many devices requiring a network connection we need some way to get all our devices connected. Is Wifi 6E the solution? So what is Wifi 6E? Well for this we have to go back to April of 2020 when the FCC opened up the 6GHz frequencies for unlicensed use. That opened up 21 new channels for compatible devices to use! If you are using a Wifi 6 device you are still fighting over the 2.4 and 5 GHz frequencies although it makes better use of them. What are the benefits? Speed  > 1Gbps Latency  < 1ms Only devices that support Wifi 6E are here. 2.4 and 5 GHz frequencies  are used on all other wifi protocols WPA 3 is mandatory for all Wi-Fi 6(E) Certified. As a result, 6GHz WiFi traffic is more secure than ever and 6GHz networks are harder to hack. Wifi Sleeping allows devices to go to sleep and free up the spectrum for other devices. This also increases battery life What devices are supported? (Partial List) Google Pixel 6 and 6 Pro Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra Xiaomi Mi 11 Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G MacBook Pro (14-inch, 2023) or MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2023) Mac mini (2023) iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation) or iPad Pro 12.9 inch (6th generation) Netgear Orbi Wi-Fi 6E $1100 Netgear Nighthawk RAXE500 $550 Linksys Atlas Max 6E $800 TP-Link Archer AXE75 $180 (no Mesh system available) Do you need it? If you are a gamer and want super low latency and don't have a hard wired setup, yes.  If you have an entertainment center and have no way of physically connecting to the network, maybe. You'll only get the benefit if your TV or set top box supports it. You may be better off waiting until more devices support it and prices come down.  However, for more basic, household use, a typical mesh system will work just fine.

Gray-haired late-night fans may remember when David Letterman sought to ingratiate himself with his network's new owner, General Electric Corp., by hand-delivering a bowl of fruit to GE's executive brass. Nearly 20 years later, Simone Nardi became a benefactor of GE's media aspirations when he traded a senior manager position on GE's audit team for a unit CFO role inside GE's plus-size media holdings enterprise, NBCUniversal.   “While a member of GE's audit team, I had had the opportunity to work with the head of GE's audit staff, so when she was named CFO of NBCUniversal, she called me when she had an opening there," recalls Nardi, while referring to GE colleague Lynn Calpeter, who stepped into the CFO role at NBCUniversal in 2003 and then later returned to GE in 2011 upon the sale of the company to Comcast. That very same year, Nardi was able to take advantage of a new CFO opportunity that surfaced inside NBCUniversal Networks International's TV Production business, which allowed the unit CFO to open his first post-GE career chapter without having to change jobs.    In the years that followed, Nardi tells us, he stepped into CFO roles at a number of different companies, one of which (fuboTV) he helped to take public.   Still, few chapters have been as formative for the finance leader as his years at GE, which seemed to achieve a familiar rhythm over time. Says Nardi: “The approach involved different businesses, different projects, and different teams globally. We'd connect locally, map out the project, deliver it, and go on to the next one.” –Jack Sweeney

In this episode of the Podcast of Champions hosts Ryan Abraham and David Woods are back in studio talking about the final Pac-12 program to wrap up spring football, the UCLA Bruins. Head coach Chip Kelly decided to forgo any sort of spring game, instead opting to finish the spring workouts with a Friday morning practice in front of about 50 fans that featured some situational scrimmage situations including wide receiver and defensive back one-on-one drills. Our own David Woods talks about UCLA's "15th training session" as Kelly called it, the starting quarterback battle, the reason the Pac-12 didn't televise the final practice and lots more. The guys also discuss the ongoing saga of the Pac-12 media rights deal including an interesting report out of Utah that claims that Amazon is out and ESPN is still in, but the sports leader has a financial cap on their tier one offer. They also talk about the Comcast overpayment mess, early odds to win the conference for all 12 programs and the crazy gambling scandals that are popping up across college athletics.

Tiene más de 20 años de inovación en la intersección entre la tecnología, data, ciencia del aprendizaje y motivación. Zsolt tiene ya varios años de expertise en temas de aprendizaje, ha pasado desde Amazon Web Services (AWS) en temas de Digital Learning and Experience, fue también L&D Program Manager en Comcast, Learning Consultant en Kineo, Diseñador Instruccional en Oracle, y vaya, solo con eso se podrán dar cuenta de la carrera tan interesante de Zsolt y por qué me interesaba mucho hablar con él.Es además autor también de “Engage the Worl&d!”, un libro enfocado en Learning and Development (de ahí el juego de palabras de “Worl&d”) y escrito de una manera increíble con varias pizca de humor y hasta con memes muy útil para cualquier persona en L&D donde se exploran seis rasgos clave: 1.- Pensamiento Crítico2.- CREAM (Creatividad, Compromiso y Motivación)3.- Resiliencia Adaptativa4.- Diseño Centrado en el Ser Humano5.- Impacto Social6.- (Des)mitificación de Mitos.Si quieren conocer más acerca de este libro, les recomiendo visitar su página web:  https://www.engagetheworldbook.com/#/Vayamos ahora con los Highlights de mi conversación con Zsolt: No es ningún secreto que todos queremos saber qué pasa dentro de Amazon y cómo se desenvuelven en temas de aprendizaje en su día a día, y qué mejor que escuchar todo esto de alguien tan relevante y tan conectado con la gente como lo es Zsolt. Ahora les comparto algunos de los insights que más me llamaron la atención de nuestra conversación: 1. - No diseña el aprendizaje, se diseñan condiciones para aprender.Zsolt nos comparte que una de sus mayores revelaciones en los últimos años en torno al aprendizaje es que mucha gente piensa que diseñamos el aprendizaje.Pero aprender es personal, sucede en tu cerebro y según muchas variables, como las emociones y lo que pase en un momento específico. Lo que realmente diseñamos es la condición o condiciones en torno al aprendizaje.Si diseñas el aprendizaje, y crees que esa es la única forma de aprender, produce cosas que piensas basadas en la ciencia, datos duros, mientras que si te concentras en diseñar las mejores condiciones para el aprendizaje, te obligas a salir de tu mentalidad personal de aprendizaje. Hay que pensar en la organización, herramientas, relaciones, etc. todo lo que envuelve al individuo que quiere aprender. 2.- Gamificar mostrando el valor que tiene: la solución para motivar a tu equipo.La vida y el aprendizaje pasa incluso aunque no lo notemos, e incluso sin darnos cuenta ya estamos jugando en nuestro día a día, Zsolt lo llama “The Prioritization Game”.Tenemos tiempo y energía limitada en nuestro trabajo y ponemos en prioridad diferentes cosas dependiendo del contexto en el que estamos, ya sea los proyectos que tenemos, la relación que tenemos con nuestro jefe, en su rol, en las prioridades de la organización, etc.Entonces, cuando les proponemos completar cursos enfocados en su aprendizaje, suelen dejar de lado estas oportunidades por no sentirse motivados a mover sus prioridades.¿Cuál podría ser la solución? Zsolt lo reduce en dos puntos:1.- El aprendizaje debe tener un valor, debe ser significativo.2.- Mostrar y hacer evidente el valor que tiene este aprendizaje.La gamificación debe tener motivación, sí, pero debemos ser objetivos con el valor que está ligado a este aprendizaje. Creemos que es algo obvio, pero no suele ser así. 3.- Tráfico y Aprendizaje, más similitudes que diferencias.Todos se quejan del tráfico, pensamos “¿Por qué vamos tan lento? ¿Por qué nadie se mueve?” Pero solemos omitir que todas las personas dentro de los autos que se quejan del mismo tráfico, al mismo tiempo, son el problema del que se quejan. Lo mismo pasa en el aprendizaje, Zsolt deja claro que la solución ante las problemáticas que giran torno al aprendizaje no serían tan fácil de resolver como “salir del auto, dejarlo ahí y caminar para avanzar”, pero lo que sí puede ser igual de sencillo es cambiar es el mindset con el que atacamos el este problema, pensar en qué podemos hacer para solucionarlo. Así como caminar o tomar otras alternativas antes de subirnos a nuestro auto podría solucionar el tráfico, cuestionarnos si el contenido que creamos es únicamente atractivo y/o entretenido, o si realmente estamos creando contenido que pueda impactar y crear un cambio en sus vidas puede ser el giro que necesitamos los líderes encargados del Desarrollo y Aprendizaje (L&D).Espero que este episodio te genere muchos insights y te lleves más de una idea que te haga vibrar.Dare to LearnConoce más de mí en https://diegolainez.com.mx/Contacto contacto@diegolainez.com.mx

Show SummaryOn this episode of Behind the Mission, we feature a conversation with Marine Corps Combat Veteran Dante' Bickham, Illustrator of PsychArmor's Military Culture Course Series sponsored by Comcast About Today's Guest After transitioning from service, Marine Corps combat Veteran Dante Bickham got a degree in graphic design and animation, but he was truly an illustrator at heart. “When I was in college, my instructor would say that Illustrator should always be the title behind my name,” says Bickham. Working on the PsychArmor military culture series put him in the role of illustrator for the first time, allowing him to do what he loved, as well as reference his time in the military, drawing on photos and memories of friends as he worked to bring the service members to life. It was also a stress reliever for him around his day job as a graphic design instructor and the stress of buying and moving into a new home. “It helped remind me of the hard work that I had put into the military.” The courses were accurate in their descriptions and character depictions, says Bickham. “I could tell that Veterans were involved in the scripting.”Links Mentioned In This EpisodeDante' Bickham on InstagramPsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's PsychArmor resource of the week is the military culture category of training on PsychArmor's Website.

The statement reads: "Mr. Carlson’s last program was Friday April 21st. Fox News Tonight will air live at 8 PM/ET starting this evening as an interim show helmed by rotating FOX News personalities until a new host is named. Carlson's show was frequently the top-rated show on cable news, often surpassing 4.5 million viewers per episode. The show premiered in November 2016, and took over the coveted 8 pm EST time slot in 2017. The decision to part ways with Carlson comes less than a week after the broadcaster and Dominion Voting Systems reached a $787 million settlement. Carlson's show was not a main focus of Dominion's lawsuit. Carlson's departure comes weeks after a former booker at the show, Abby Grossberg, sued Fox, citing "vile sexist stereotypes" working for Carlson. NBC reports that "Grossberg was fired in March after she filed a lawsuit claiming that Fox lawyers coerced her into giving misleading testimony in the Dominion case and that she was being made a scapegoat for the network’s 2020 election coverage. Fox says she was fired for divulging privileged information." Grossberg's lawyer has since said that his client has a "uniquely strong" case against Fox News. Several former Fox News hosts reacted to the news of Carlson leaving the network, including Megyn Kelly, who said "Good for Tucker. Trust me, he doesn't need them." Dan Bongino, who also split ways with the network last week, simply tweeted "WTF!" in response. The media shakeup continued… https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-don-lemon-terminated-by-cnn?utm_campaign=64487 Don Lemon TERMINATED by CNN On Monday, Don Lemon revealed to his Twitter followers that he has been terminated by CNN. "I was informed this morning by my agent that I have been terminated by CNN," Lemon’s statement began. "I am stunned. After 17 years at CNN I would have thought that someone in management would have had the decency to tell me directly." In response to Lemon’s statement, CNN said, "Don Lemon’s statement about this morning’s events is inaccurate. He was offered an opportunity to meet with management but instead released a statement on Twitter." Most recently, Lemon was in hot water over comments made about Nikki Haley, being forced to undergo formal training and absent from CNN This Morning for several days. In Late February, Lemon said of presidential candidate Nikki Haley saying politicians over the age of 75 should undergo mental competency tests - saying she Nikki Haley wasn’t in her prime. Lemon went on to say women were in their prime "in their 20s and 30s and maybe 40s." The next week though, Lemon didn’t return to the program until Wednesday, undergoing "formal training" as to why his comments were wrong. During this time, female CNN staffers threatened to quit if Lemon was allowed back. During Lemon’s absence from the morning show, CNN This Morning’s ratings went up by five percent. In September, Lemon was removed from his long-held primetime slot to the morning show. https://thepostmillennial.com/nbcuniversal-ceo-ousted-after-having-inappropriate-relationship-with-coworker?utm_campaign=64487 NBCUniversal CEO ousted after having 'inappropriate relationship' with coworker The CEO of NBCUniversal Jeff Shell has been ousted from the company after an investigation revealed that he was having an 'inappropriate relationship' with a female employee at the company. Shell, who made $21.6 million per year, risked his high earnings by going against company policy and admitting to executives that he was having an "inappropriate relationship" with another woman at the company. NBCUniversal made the announcement that Shell had been terminated in an email sent to employees on Sunday, according to CNBC. The findings were revealed when an outside company was hired to investigate a complaint against Shell. Shell is currently married to Laura Fay Shell, who previously worked for the City of Los Angeles, Daily Mail reports. "Today is my last day as CEO of NBCUniversal. I had an inappropriate relationship with a woman in the company, which I deeply regret," Shell said in a statement. "I'm truly sorry I let my Comcast and NBCUniversal colleagues down, they are the most talented people in the business and the opportunity to work with them the last 19 years has been a privilege." In 2020, the vice president of NBCUniversal, Ron Meyer, was ousted from the company after improperly disclosing that he was ordered to pay a settlement to a woman he reportedly had a "consensual affair" with. Shell is the second executive to be ousted in recent years. Lots of ousting lately… Now this… https://townhall.com/tipsheet/saraharnold/2023/04/23/canada-could-supply-us-with-abortion-pills-if-courts-ban-it-n2622298 Canada Suggests It Would Provide Women With the Abortion Pill If the U.S. Bans It The Canadian government said it "would work to provide" Americans access to the abortion pill, mifepristone, if the controversial drug gets banned in the U.S. Families Minister Karina Gould said it concerns her that U.S. laws are looking to "criminalize" women seeking access to reproductive healthcare. On Friday, the Supreme Court paused a federal judge's order to restrict access to mifepristone after the 5th Circuit Court overlooked a case to take the dangerous drug off the market after Texas Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk ruled that it should not be allowed arguing that the FDA expedited the process to "green light elective chemical abortions on a wide scale." Last year before the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, Gould said that Americans would be able to get an abortion in Canada, which is typically less regulated than it is in the U.S. and available at later stages of pregnancy. https://www.dailywire.com/news/newsom-directs-national-guard-to-combat-san-franciscos-fentanyl-crisis Newsom Directs National Guard To Combat San Francisco’s Fentanyl Crisis Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) directed the state National Guard and California Highway Patrol to help in the fight against fentanyl trafficking in San Francisco. As part of a new partnership, the agencies are tasked with identifying personnel and resources to assist San Francisco following a 41% spike in fentanyl overdose deaths in the first few months of this year. “We are providing more law enforcement resources and personnel to crack down on crime linked to the fentanyl crisis, holding the poison peddlers accountable, and increasing law enforcement presence to improve public safety and public confidence in San Francisco,” Newsom said in a statement on Friday. Newsom’s office said the collaboration, which also includes the San Francisco Police Department and and the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office, will be focused on drug suppliers and traffickers rather than seeking to criminalize those struggling with substance abuse in a city that has recorded several hundred accidental overdose deaths annually in recent years. The agreement will “lead to the formation of a new collaborative operation between all four agencies focused on dismantling fentanyl trafficking and disrupting the supply of the deadly drug in the city by holding the operators of large-scale drug trafficking operations accountable,” the governor’s office said. Newsom paid a visit on Wednesday to San Francisco, a city he once led as mayor, and surveyed the Tenderloin neighborhood, which has been hit hard by crime and the fentanyl crisis. The trip took place a couple weeks after San Francisco Mayor London Breed requested federal assistance to arrest and prosecute drug dealers while the city contends with a short-staffed police department, according to local ABC affiliate KGO. During Newsom’s visit to Tenderloin, activist JJ Smith pressed the governor on what he is doing to stop the fentanyl crisis, according to CBS News Bay Area. JJ Smith recalled Newsom saying he is working on the issue, a response which the activist felt was inadequate. Newsom, who is widely seen as a top future presidential contender for the Democrats, says he has already invested more than $1 billion to tackle the opioid and fentanyl crisis in California. His new budget request seeks another $96 million in funding to tackle the problem. Now for my favorite topic… sports! https://dailycaller.com/2023/04/23/phil-jackson-nba-bubble-social-justice/ Legendary Coach Criticizes NBA For Being Too Political Legendary coach Phil Jackson was trending on the Internet Saturday due to comments he made criticizing the NBA on the podcast “Tetragrammaton with Rick Rubin.” During the April 5 podcast, the 11-time NBA champion said he stopped watching games during the 2020 NBA Bubble in Orlando because the league had become too political. The Orlando games were held during the COVID-19 pandemic and came on the heels of George Floyd’s death in police custody and subsequent protests in May. Legendary NBA coach Phil Jackson slams league for becoming too political-Play 0:12-0:32 Jackson referred to social justice slogans the NBA allowed players to wear on the backs of their uniforms in 2020. The slogans included “Black Lives Matter,” “Freedom,” “Justice,” “Enough,” and “Power to the People,” among others. Jackson said he didn’t see how these gestures made an impact and commented on how past athletes kept their political views to themselves. “Bill Bradley was a senator, a number of baseball players have been representatives and senators. . .But their politics stay out of the game. It doesn’t need to be there.” Jackson, 77, played in the NBA for twelve seasons and coached for 20. He retired from coaching in 2011.
