Boudin's sourdough bread's unique tangy taste and chewy center has been a hit with San Francisco residents since the bakery first opened in 1849.

What Is 4K and Should I Buy a 4K Display Right Now?
by Adam Dachis
Dear Lifehacker,
4K TVs hit the market last year and lots of companies are in the process of releasing budget-conscious 4K monitors. I like the idea of higher resolution, so is this something I can benefit from or should I just stick with the monitor I've got?
