[Update: Reposted from January 10th for #StarWarsDay 2018. May the 4th be with you!] With the Star Wars sequel trilogy speeding towards its conclusion, details about George Lucas’ vision for the series have come to light over the past few years. Lucas, of course, spearheaded the first six episodes of the Skywalker saga, watching his creation grow from a strange Flash Gordon homage to the most popular film series on the planet....
Android Notifications in Windows 10 The first thing to do is download the Cortana app from the Google Play Store. It’s worth noting that Cortana is only available to U.S. users. However, if you live outside the U.S. you can use the APK Mirror to get it (and yes, it’s safe). After you have the app downloaded, launch it, and you’ll be required to sign-in with your Microsoft Account. Then, select Settings and Sync notifications as shown below....
While iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch are definitely some of the most desired devices for the holiday season, it can also be a great time to buy a new Mac. Whether you’re about to get your first Mac or even if you already have one, check out our list of the best accessories that will enhance your Mac experience. Magic Trackpad The built-in trackpads in MacBooks are certainly one of the best qualities of Apple’s laptops, but if you have an iMac or even a Mac mini, you can still have the same experience with Magic Trackpad....
Glass’ second weekend decline at the box office was much steeper than Split, but the film still finished in the top spot. The latest from director M. Night Shyamalan, Glass serves as the conclusion to the long-gestating Eastrail 177 trilogy that began with 2000’s Unbreakable. With Shyamalan enjoying a mini-resurgence thanks to hits The Visit and Split, there was a lot of hope Glass could be another success, but things unfortunately didn’t turn out that way....
Before the era of streaming services, endless TV real estate and Peak TV, the existence of GLOW would be practically unimaginable. It’s hard to imagine, say, CBS, in 1994, greenlighting a TV series based on the all-female professional wrestling league GLOW (which stood for Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, a mostly Las Vegas-based circuit that mostly consisted of models and actresses pursuing careers in pro wrestling). But Netflix now has. The 10-episode first season of the series, from Weeds and Orange is the New Black creator Jenji Kohan, was announced last year for Netflix, with a cast led by Alison Brie and Marc Maron, with Betty Gilpin, Jackie Tohn, and Ellen Wong also listed among the cast....
The new God of War proved that an older, bearded Kratos is just as deadly… but the game was originally going to star an out of shape Kratos who had “let himself go.” No matter how old, scarred, angry, or bitter a father the latest take on Kratos turned out to be, the game itself was a hit, rejuvenating the entire God of War franchise with a new style, story, and structure....
The Good Place series finale included a surprise cameo from a fan-favorite on Parks and Recreation: Nick Offerman, potentially as Ron Swanson. After four critically acclaimed seasons, NBC’s terrific comedy about the afterlife has finally concluded. Created by Michael Schur, who previously worked on The Office and Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The Good Place originally followed Eleanor Shellstrop (Kristen Bell), who woke up in a heaven-like utopia called the “Good Place,” which was run by Michael (Ted Danson)....
Google announced a major update today for its Google+ mobile apps that, among a number of other features, brings some of Snapseed’s basic photo-editing enhancements to the iPhone app thanks to its recent Nik Software acquisition: Do basic edits like rotate and crop, as well as select filters like Drama and Retrolux Adjust saturation, contrast, brightness and lots more by sliding your fingers up-and-down, then left-and-right Single tap at any time to compare your creation with the original Google isn’t entirely merging Snapseed into the Google+ apps, as it still recommends downloading its standalone Snapseed app for more advanced editing features....
Google has now announced that the Cardboard is compatible with Street View, allowing user to wear the headset and experience Google Maps Street View in a new, immersive way. Described as a easter egg (or Christmas egg?), users just have to double-tap the navigation circle in the lower right corner of Google Maps, and then the app will show a stereoscopic 360-degree view of the location they have chosen. If you are a Google Cardboard owner, for this feature to work, you just need to make sure that you have updated both your Google Cardboard and Google Maps apps....
With the launch of iOS 14 last year, many Google apps added support for updated homescreen widgets. The Google Search widgets are now adding nice customizable backgrounds for iPhone and iPad. The main Google app on iOS offers two widgets, starting with a simple 1×1 shortcut that immediately opens the search field and keyboard to quickly enter a query. Google’s bigger widget also lets you quickly enter Lens, do a Voice Search, and Incognito lookup....
If you use Google Photos on your iPhone and iPad (and you should), you can now use AirPlay to view selected photos on your Apple TV. Google quietly added the feature in an update to the app yesterday… It’s the only functionality added to the update, the rest of which was merely performance improvements. Google Photos is a recommended app for all iPhone users as the company allows free, unlimited, automatic storage of all photos up to 16MP – which includes all photos taken with an iPhone or iPad....
I get asked the question a lot, and it’s a good question. By 2019, the worldwide need for cybersecurity professionals is expected to reach 6 million jobs – but companies will likely be able to only find 4.5 million people able to do the work. That means there is the potential of 1.5 million jobs – high paying jobs at that – that can go to anyone with the qualifications....
Ghost Recon Breakpoint launched last week after months of anticipation, but it seems reviewers aren’t as impressed with the game as they were with the possibilities teased by Ubisoft’s pre-launch reveals. Screen Rant gave Ghost Recon Breakpoint 2.5/5 stars, and that’s not even the least favorable review the game has gotten. Breakpoint’s review scores are some of the lowest yet for the franchise, which was never one of the most beloved game series to begin with....
Lorelai Gilmore is considered by many to be the greatest mom on TV. While she’s more famous for her coffee obsession than for her fashion sense, she definitely wears some interesting outfits over the seven seasons of Gilmore Girls (plus the four episodes of the Netflix revival). Whether she’s walking to Luke’s Diner to get a burger or strolling around Stars Hollow with Rory, Lorelai usually looks great… except for the times that she doesn’t....
One of the earliest entries in the recent wave of TV revival series, Girl Meets World premiered on the Disney Channel in 2014 to critical acclaim and quickly cemented itself as one of the network’s top programs. A sequel series of sorts to classic TGIF-era sitcom Boy Meets World, Girl Meets World focused on Riley Matthews (Rowan Blanchard) - teen daughter of Boy Meets World super-couple Corey (Ben Savage) and Topanga (Danielle Fishel) - and her journey through school alongside friends Maya (Sabrina Carpenter), Lucas (Peyton Meyer) and Farkle (Corey Fogelmanis)....
In February, the Google Material Theme revamp began rolling out to Gmail for iOS. It brought the stark white design, new account switcher, and density preferences. However, it still lacked the ability to customize swipe actions, with that feature finally rolling out today. This option first debuted on Android last June, with Google now expanding the ability to customize what happens when users swipe on an email from the main inbox view....
Here’s what you can do. See also: How to back up your Gmail: The ultimate guide. First, hit the Gmail gear icon, click See All Settings, and then go to the Labels tab. Scroll down below all the system labels and find the Create New Label button. Now, create a label and call it BUMP!. I like “bump” because it reminds me of the forums practice of bumping a message to the top, but in this case, it’s practical because it’s at the beginning of the alphabet and will be visible on your Gmail sidebar....
Though King Ghidorah is already considered to be Godzilla’s greatest enemy, Godzilla: King of the Monsters makes him even better, taking their rivalry to the next level. Not only is Ghidorah a fearsome foe in Godzilla: King of the Monsters, but director Michael Dougherty succeeds in delivering the best version of King Ghidorah ever. Godzilla, King Ghidorah, Mothra, and Rodan collide in the third installment in Legendary’s MonsterVerse. Directed by Mike Dougherty, King of the Monsters sees the return of Godzilla after a group of eco-terrorists, led by Jonah (Charles Dance), come up with a plan to wake up the 17 Titans scattered across the Earth....
Director Mike Dougherty revealed several important details about Godzilla: King of the Monsters in set photos during production. Despite now releasing in May 2019, Godzilla 2 finished production in September 2017, leaving a whopping 20 months for post-production and marketing. Considering this is a major effects tentpole, that’s only to the film’s advantage, but also means there’s a lot more time for details to be revealed. Godzilla: King of the Monsters continues the story began in Gareth Edwards’ 2014 Godzilla, seeing Gojira taking on new threats from other Titans, classic monsters from his Toho mythology: Ghidorah, Rodan and Mothra....
We’re still about a year away from the release of Godzilla 2 (currently going with the title Godzilla: King of the Monsters), but it looks like the film is sharing a lead actor with the recent monster movie Rampage. But don’t expect Dwayne Johnson to be making a cameo appearance. Instead, the performance capture artist who played George the albino gorilla will be stomping on skyscrapers as Godzilla’s ultimate nemesis, King Ghidorah....
