Paramount Plus launched Thursday, replacing CBS All Access with a new name and a bigger library of stuff to stream. But missing from its widened selection is the single TV show most associated with the Paramount name right now: Yellowstone . The epic cowboy drama has been a breakaway hit for the Paramount Network , one of ViacomCBS' cable channels. And Paramount Plus will have a new Yellowstone prequel to stream later this year, with another spinoff to come. But if you want to binge Yellowstone itself, you need to mosey over to Paramount Plus' rival Peacock , which has the exclusive rights to stream the first three seasons. When Yellowstone returns after its cliff-hanger finale last year -- an episode that drew in the biggest audience of any scripted TV show on cable last year -- you can expect season 4 will be on Peacock too. And Yellowstone isn't the only high-profile ViacomCBS program missing from Paramount Plus. If you're looking for Comedy Central's South … [Read more...] about Why Paramount’s biggest show, Yellowstone, isn’t on Paramount Plus

Right now there are two TV technologies available to most people: LCD and OLED . Sure, people with tons of money might get a MicroLED TV , but mere mortals have only those two choices. The biggest TV maker in the world, Samsung, has been firmly in the LCD camp for many years, while crosstown rival LG is the biggest name in OLED . LCD, despite advancements like QLED , mini-LED and dual panels , has always lagged behind OLED in overall picture quality. Now Samsung is working on a new kind of TV that aims to combine two display technologies into something greater than the sum of its parts. It's a hybrid between OLED and quantum dots called QD Display. According to Korea IT News , Samsung Display will end production of LCD panels by the end of 2021, moving to QD Display next year. At the same time, Samsung Electronics could start selling these new TVs as early as 2022.

For medical students and junior doctors, training can be hit and miss. Sometimes you sit down with an actor who plays the part of a patient and rehearse giving a difficult diagnosis, sometimes there's a dummy that you examine, with a colleague shouting out imaginary symptoms along the lines of "His blood pressure's gone through the floor!" or "She looks sweaty and confused now!" In most cases, your imagination has to do the legwork, converting the unmoving peach-coloured rubber torso into a patient urgently in need of assistance or the actor into someone who's about to get bad news. If you're lucky, you get to practice this way a few times a year. If you're in a pandemic, you might not even get that. With training oftentimes taking place in hospitals, students and trainers now can't go to these facilities in order to reduce the risk of transmitting COVID. So now a number of universities and medical institutions are turning to virtual reality to bridge the training gap. … [Read more...] about Virtual reality has found a new role: Teaching doctors to deal with patients
