Anthony Mackie wishes Falcon’s death in Avengers: Infinity War was better than just turning to dirt and has his own ideas for how it should’ve happened. Mackie joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Sam Wilson in 2014’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier and quickly became a recurring face since then. After his debut, he made appearances in three straight MCU films: Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man, and Captain America: Civil War....

In only two evenings of melodramatic television, a fanbase turned its backs on Bachelor in Paradise’s Blake Horstmann, and fellow contestant Tayshia Adams teases even more drama in episodes to come surrounding the Bachelor franchise’s most recently anointed villain. Horstmann has made more enemies than friends with his wishy-washiness and woe-is-me confessionals, and it looks like that’s only going to continue. Horstmann entered Paradise with sincere hopes of finding love after falling just short on Becca Kufrin’s season a year prior....

Following the drama of this season’s finale, The Bachelorette’s Jed Wyatt is returning to his pre-show job at a male burlesque club in Nashville. Even if you didn’t watch the latest season of ABC’s reality dating show, you might’ve seen a story or two about the drama that went down between show “winner” Jed Wyatt and lead Hannah Brown post-finale. It was one season that truly lived up to host Chris Harrison describing it as “the most dramatic season ever....

The Joker has caused quite a bit of turmoil in Batman’s life, as the DC Comics villain’s special affinity for the Caped Crusader has led to violence, destruction, and death. You’d think if the Joker was killed, Batman would be OK with it. However, one time, the Joker died and Batman brought him back to life - for good reason. The Lazarus Pit has long been an important tool to bring characters back to life in DC Comics....

As the most controversial comic book movie in history, the debates over Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice rage on even years later. The online discussion divided audiences into either loving or hating Zack Snyder’s take on DC’s heroes, instead of discussing it as fans–a problem the Batman v Superman: By The Minute Podcast hopes to change. The questions posed by the movie itself–What does “the American Way” mean today? When does a hero become a villain?...

Apple has released the latest version of its COVID-19 application for iPhone today. This update includes new recommendations for healthcare workers, as well as additional information for quarantining and more. Today’s update to the COVID-19 application focuses on adding new information for users. Here are the full release notes for the update: Apple released version 3.0 of its COVID-19 screening application earlier this month, bringing new CDC symptoms information and mask cleaning tips....

Battery life The idea of charging yet another device in 2015 wasn’t very appealing, and that was before we added AirPods to the routine. All-in-one charging stations have made this easier today. What stands out to me now is the hunch that Apple Watch was overly aggressive on topping off performance to maintain battery life. I recall ending most days with a notable amount of fuel in the tank, so to speak, after wearing the Apple Watch for a full day....

We saw Apple air a playful pitch for the ECG app on the Apple Watch last month, and now two more videos have dropped that promote Apple’s “The Future of Health is on Your Wrist” campaign. Apple published the trio of Apple Watch commercials on its YouTube channel today, including the ECG-focused video that we first saw in January. The two additional ad spots focus on Apple’s Workout and Sleep apps for health and fitness tracking....

Those new MacBook Air models are being torn apart, poked and prodded, but just how many will Apple sell? A fair few it seems, with analysts at Concord Securities claiming we’ll see 700,000 of them flying off the shelves in the current quarter alone. Analyst Mingchi Kuo believes Apple’s new MacBook Air will grab 17 percent of the company’s 4.1 million Mac shipments, with 60 percent of these sales accounted for by the cheaper 11....

Everything about your online life is collected if you have a Google account and use YouTube or Google search engine. The information is largely used for both marketing purchases and to make suggestions across the different Google properties. On YouTube, Google’s algorithms keep track of which videos you watch and your Google search history. These algorithms are adjustable by removing your watch and search history. As an alternative, you can tune your recommendations so that they better reflect your current, not historical, interests....

Army of Darkness, Sam Raimi’s third entry in his Evil Dead trilogy, comes in multiple flavors, each containing a different take on the horror/comedy. On the surface, an uninitiated viewer could be forgiven for not realizing Army of Darkness is even part of the Evil Dead franchise. It’s the only entry into it without the words Evil Dead in the title, and thematically, bears very little resemblance to its predecessors. While technically a horror/comedy, Army of Darkness tilts way more toward comedy than horror....

Fans of the many different series and franchises that have been birthed at DC are able to find entertainment in both the DC Extended Universe on the big screen and the DC-inspired television shows that have garnered themselves a dedicated following. The CW’s DC television comic book adaptations all started with Arrow, which then went on to spin off The Flash and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, while Supergirl more recently joined the universe....

Apple’s clean-break settlement with GT Advanced is now official, two days after lawyers for the bankrupt sapphire manufacturer reported that agreement had been reached. In a press release, the company said that the company was being given up to four years interest-free to repay the $439M owed to Apple. The company is exiting the sapphire production business and will repay Apple from the proceeds of selling its furnaces, the four-year timeframe likely agreed in order to allow GT Advanced to achieve the best price....

Whether it’s a simple utility, favorite media player, browser addons, games, or expensive programs like Photoshop, everyone has favorite applications that they can’t live without. Here’s a list of five programs that must be installed on all of my computers, in no particular order. Of course there are several more, but these are the first five that popped in my head right away.

A Taiwan-based multinational company, Asus manufactures a wide spectrum of devices and hardware including the Zenfone series and gaming-oriented ROG Phone series and it is the No. 1 company when it comes to gaming motherboard while it also manufactures gaming laptops and other consumer electronics. On the other hand, Google added Android 10 after testing it several times over a couple of weeks before rolling out officially on September 3. Note that henceforth, Google will name its upcoming Android OSes as Android 10 after renaming it from Android Q....

AT&T has won the head to head competition with Verizon to become the first carrier to offer 5G connectivity. The telecom company has set up the 5G networks in twelve U.S. cities in last year and seven more cities currently setting up. Therefore, a total of 19 cities will run by the end of April 30 in full flow with AT&T 5G services. By this kind of network coverage, AT&T will have the widest 5G network reach among the four major U....

There was a time when forgetting to take your wallet with you when leaving home could really spoil your day. Apple Pay changed that, but even in London – where you can use contactless payment for almost everything – there are still occasions when you need a physical card. But for those using the MagSafe wallet, Apple could easily eliminate the risk altogether … I was surprised to find myself a fan of the MagSafe wallet....

(Photo via Auburn University) Following Apple CEO Tim Cook being honored with Auburn University’s College of Human Sciences Lifetime Achievement award last December, the university in Alabama from which Tim Cook graduated has shared a video profiling the Apple CEO and his impact at Auburn. While the video was first posted in March and surfaced today, it features commentary and interviews from other notable Apple figures including Jeff Williams, Senior VP of Operations, and Bob Iger, Disney CEO and Apple board member....

Avengers: Endgame answered some of the questions that Avengers: Infinity War left, but it also seems to disprove something that Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige said about the extent of Thanos’ snap. The Marvel Cinematic Universe as viewers had come to know it came to an end with Avengers: Endgame, giving closure to the arcs of some of the original Avengers and marking the beginning of a new era for the remaining superheroes, as seen with Spider-Man in Spider-Man: Far From Home....

Avengers: Endgame finally got some awards season love from the Critics Choice Awards, winning Best Action Movie over Oscar-favorite 1917. Avengers: Endgame has already cemented its place in history thanks to numerous box office records (including its current title as the highest-grossing film of all time) but many wondered if the MCU epic could also get some awards recognition. Disney has mounted a campaign for the film, putting special focus on Robert Downey Jr....
