The comic book version of Crisis on Infinite Earths was loaded with major casualties, but which Arrowverse characters were victims of the event? Since there are quite a few parallels between the comics and the TV crossover, some of these deaths may be adapted to the Arrowverse, putting the lives of several key characters in jeopardy. Based on the 1985-1986 comic book miniseries of the same name, Crisis on Infinite Earths will be told across episodes of Supergirl, Batwoman, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, and Arrow....

AT&T’s CEO Randall Stephenson seemed to have many things to say about the iPhone at a wireless industry conference earlier this week (full video below). In a talk that resembled this Fake Steve Jobs satire, the New York Times reports that Stephenson was upset that high-volume smartphone users were costing the carrier so much that the lower-volume users had to subsidize their usage. Stephenson said that unlimited data for the iPhone was a mistake: “My only regret was how we introduced pricing in the beginning, because how did we introduce pricing?...

Speaking at an Economic Club event in Washington, D.C. today, AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson proved that he, too, is affected by the ongoing robocall epidemic. Stephenson received a call in the middle of his interview, and instantly concluded it was a robocall. On stage at the event, Stephenson was in the midst of answering a question when his Apple Watch started ringing. “I’m getting a robocall too,” Stephenson said while declining the call from his Apple Watch....

AT&T has announced today that its CEO Randall Stephenson will be stepping down at the end of Q2 with COO John Stankey to fill the role. The wireless executive shakeup comes a bit earlier than expected based on Stephenson’s previous comments. CNBC highlights that after seeing pressure from an activist fund last year for Stephenson to step down, he said back in February that he’d remain in the CEO position through this year....

McHardy was suspended from the Netfilter team in 2016. The Netfilter team released a document on how to deal with his attempts to extract money from vendors. This move by McHardy, who had been a leading Linux developer in the 2000s, came as a complete surprise at the time. Now, years later, the issue has finally been resolved. On January 24, 2022, the Netfilter project announced a legally binding settlement with McHardy....

[Update 10/26: Now available for pre-order with early delivers shipping tomorrow.] Since being acquired by Apple for $3 billion just over a year ago, we haven’t seen much in terms of new hardware from the speaker company aside from new colored headphones and a wireless version of the Solo 2’s. Beats’ most expensive speaker, the Pill XL, was actually recalled and taken off the market after a fire risk when charging was discovered....

Nevertheless, seeing that many users have adopted Microsoft’s platform on a wide array of different devices, we thought that a list of some of the best Windows 8 games will keep you entertained for the following winter holiday. Although there are a lot of Windows 8 games available on the Store, many of them are poorly created, and as such, don’t deserve your time. This isn’t to say that there aren’t any good games to download....

Here are our favorite comedy movies of the 2010s. In the current landscape of worldwide political division, rising international tensions and the impending global warming apocalypse, a good comedy movie is more important than ever. Laughter is universal, supposedly, and the best comedy films allow an audience to switch off from everyday life without the intensity of an action thriller or the cheesy sentimentality of a romance. But as much as a great comedy film can bring people together and appeal to all sections of the market, the genre is also one of the most inherently subjective....

Taking notes digitally on our computers has never been so essential as it has been in the recent few months. Be it as a student, or an employee, everyone had a sudden need to take notes efficiently with the entire work from home idealogy being taken into effect due to the pandemic.

AppleCare+ is coming for the first time to Australia in the coming weeks, according to a source. Apple will begin training Apple Store employees in Australia on how to sell the premium protection plan in the coming days. MacRumors is also reporting that the service is inbound to Down Under. iPhone and iPad users in Australia can currently only buy the less-expensive standard AppleCare plan. Apple revamped AppleCare+ for many countries earlier this year with an extended purchase window and by making the plan the standard....

I really don’t see why people are arguing over which platform is better, GoogleTV or AppleTV. I don’t care, I’m getting both. AppleTV costs less than a month of cable service and a Logitech Revue GoogleTV is about the same price as a 32GB iPod ($299 ish?). I’m not one to throw away money but I like both of these platforms and even though they overlap, they perform a lot of separate functions....

Warning: SPOILERS for Crisis On Infinite Earths Parts 4 and 5. Crisis On Infinite Earths has officially come to an end as the 5-hour Arrowverse event changed The CW’s DC TV lineup forever for years to come. Since the very end of The Flash pilot, Greg Berlanti’s DC franchise on The CW has been teasing the arrival of the iconic DC storyline to the small screen.

When Apple officially discontinued the Thunderbolt Display, directing customers to look at third-party displays, it naturally led to speculation about whether this was a temporary or permanent state of affairs. Now Reddit users are upping the speculation by pointing to a redirect on the company’s website. Reddit user samuhlarik10 noticed that www.apple.com/displays/ redirects to www.apple.com/mac/, and a second user noted that Apple had used a 301 rather than a 302 code to perform the redirect....

The Asus ZenPower is said to be the world’s ‘number 1 credit card sized’ power bank with a high capacity of 10050mAh. However, we’re not quite sure what Asus means by ‘No.1’, as this is a different expression than the ‘world’s first’, so maybe it’s nothing more than just a marketing trick. Nonetheless, the gadget weighs only 215 grams, being no bigger than a credit card in width. If you have a smartphone with a battery capacity of 1500mA, 2000mA, 2500mA and 3000mA, then you can charged 4 times, 3 times, 2....
