This week a crowdfunding campaign wrapped up for a 14 inch portable monitor called Lukos, which has an ultra-wide 3840 x 1100 pixel display sporting a 32:9 aspect ratio.

This week a crowdfunding campaign wrapped up for a 14 inch portable monitor called Lukos, which has an ultra-wide 3840 x 1100 pixel display sporting a 32:9 aspect ratio. If everything goes according to plan, backers who paid $419 or more should begin receiving their Lukos displays in April.
While these displays cost less than a Lukos, they also have a more limited selection of ports – the Lukos display has 6 video inputs and supports using up to four displays simultaneously thanks to a split-screen mode. But for the most part, these cheaper displays appear to have:
1 x mini HDMI
2 x USB Type-C (one for power, one for video & data)
2 x micro USB
1 x 3.5mm audio
Some models are also available with touchscreen support and appear to come with a controller board that enables that functionality. And each model has power buttons plus a dial for adjusting display settings.
They also have power buttons and dials that can be used to adjust display settings.
Or if you’d rather purchase the Lukos display without waiting for crowdfunding to end, one store is selling that for $500. This version features a similar display but it comes in a chunkier case with a carbon fiber finish and features a USB Type-C port, two DisplayPort 1.4 ports, two HDMI 2.0B ports, and an HDMI 1.4 port plus a DisplayPort 1.2 output and 3.5mm headphone jack.
I cannot vouch for the performance or reliability of any of these 14 inch, 3840 x 1100 pixel displays, but it is interesting to see so many emerging at once. One possible explanation? With companies like Asus producing dual-screen laptops that incorporate similarly-sized displays, some Chinese device makers may be looking for ways to repurpose some of the screens rolling out of factories in that country.
System76's latest Linux laptop combines one of AMD's most powerful 5000 series mobile CPUs with Nvidia's mid-range RTX 3060. Configurable to up to $3,442, the Kudu targets Linux users who have a lot of work to do, while quietly nodding at those who like to play games every now and then, too.
The 15.6-inch Kudu is the second-priciest offering in System76's laptop lineup. It comes with an octa-core AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX, which has a base clock speed of 3.3 GHz and a boost of up to 4.6 GHz.
It's worth noting that AMD announced its next generation of mobile chips, the Ryzen 6000 series, last month, and laptops should start arriving with those chips soon. Options are more limited in the Linux space, but for a quick comparison, the AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX has the same clock speed as its last-gen counterpart but with a higher boost of up to 4.9 GHz and more graphics cores (12 versus 8).
Hot off the announcement that Google is seeing record sales for the Pixel 6, the company is expanding the distribution of its flagship smartphone ever so slightly. The Google Store is now selling the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro in Italy and Spain, taking the total Pixel 6 country distribution from nine countries to 11.
Google's vice president of Devices & Services for EMEA, Michiel van Eldik, is quoted in the Google Italy Blog post saying (via translation): "Due to the high demand for Pixel 6 devices, coupled with global supply chain issues, we will launch a limited amount of devices and expect to sell them quickly." Italy and Spain are only getting the 128GB versions of both phones, and they come in any color you want, as long as it's black. In other countries, the Pixel 6 or 6 Pro phone is available in white, green, yellow, and red, with 256GB and 512GB storage options, but that's all being limited due to supply problems.
When the Pixel 6 debuted in October, Google told Ars the phone was launching in "12 countries, including US, Canada, Japan, Australia, Taiwan, UK, Germany, France, and Ireland on October 28th and then Spain, Italy, and Singapore early next year." Assuming Google's plans haven't changed, Singapore is the only country on that list where the Pixel 6 hasn't launched yet.
Meta’s earnings call revealed bad news buried within bad news.

If last year was bad for Meta, this year might be worse.
The company’s earnings call last night painted a dismal picture. Its flagship Facebook platform lost about a million daily active users last quarter, the first time that has happened. Instagram and WhatsApp may still be growing but not by much—last quarter, the company added just 10 million users across all its apps. Meta lost $10 billion on its Reality Labs division, which handles VR and AR, the stuff it has been betting its future on. And the company said that it expects Apple’s App Tracking Transparency feature to slash the coming year’s revenue by $10 billion, or about 10 percent.
The market did not react kindly to the news. Meta’s stock has taken a massive hit and is currently trading down around 24 percent below yesterday’s close, wiping around $200 billion off its market cap.

While some phone makers only offer a stylus with high-end smartphones, Motorola has been selling a line of mid-range Moto G Stylus handsets for years for folks willing to sacrifice specs in pursuit of a more affordable price tag.
This year’s Moto G Stylus (2022) ups the ante in some key areas: it has a more RAM, a bigger battery, an updated camera system and a higher screen refresh rate than last year’s model, while keeping the same $300 price tag. But Motorola also swapped out a mid-range Qualcomm processor for a mid-range MediaTek chip, which could be more of a lateral move.
Motorola is taking orders for the new Moto G Stylus now and expects to begin shipping the phone February 17, 2022.
Here’s a run-down of some of the phone’s key specs:
Moto G Stylus (2022)
Display
6.8 inches
2460 x 1080 pixels
20:9 aspect ratio
90 Hz refresh rate
IPS LCD
Stylus (docks inside phone)

The Falcon 9 also recently surpassed the space shuttle in total flights.

SpaceX has been launching Falcon 9 rockets thick and fast of late. With 10 launches since the beginning of December, the company has flown rockets at a rate greater than one mission a week. And another launch could happen as soon as today, shortly after noon (18:13 UTC), with a Starlink satellite launch planned from Florida.
Lost amid the flurry of activity are some pretty significant milestones for the Falcon 9 rocket, which made its debut a little more than a decade ago.
Number of launches
The Falcon 9 rocket has now launched a total of 139 times. Of those, one mission failed, the launch of an International Space Station supply mission for NASA, in June 2015. Not included in this launch tally is the pre-flight failure of a Falcon 9 rocket and its Amos-6 satellite during a static fire test in September 2016.
