When visitors begin to arrive in Disney Parks’ Galaxy’s Edge, they will arrive in a timeline that takes place somewhere between Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Episode 9. The company first announced that it had plans to bring a Star Wars-themed land to its two U.S. parks in 2015. As construction began, Disney eventually released the land’s name: Galaxy’s Edge. Now, nearly four years later, Galaxy’s Edge is close to opening and Disney is finally releasing more details about what guests can expect when they visit the parks....

One just arrived for testing, so stay tuned for a full review after we get a chance to explore the great outdoors and get some miles on this new essential tool. The original inReach Mini was released in 2018, and at first glance, it doesn’t look like much has changed. However, a significant improvement in battery life is the foundation of the inReach Mini 2....

Apple’s results have generated stellar stock movements, not just as regards AAPL stock, but also that of key partners. Early morning news from the East reveal that shares of Apple’s contract manufacturer, Foxconn, have also shot up 6.33 percent at time of writing. That’s nice, but that’s not the news…seems the company’s parent firm, Taiwan’s Hon Hai Precision Industry has plans to build an all-new $1 billion factory in China that “could be gearing up for the next generation of Apple products,” and that speculation doesn’t come from us, but from MarketWatch....

The G.I. Joe spinoff movie Snake Eyes has found the character’s trainer, with Iko Uwais cast as Hard Master. The G.I. Joe IP previously was put to the big screen a decade ago with Channing Tatum in the lead role. G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra did not receive positive reviews, but earned over $300 million at the box office. Instead of doing a direct sequel, a soft reboot approach was taken with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson taking over the lead role; G....

The last Game of Thrones season is right around the corner. In fact, fans have been patiently waiting for its return. They’re eager to see how the show will end. On the other hand, fans are sad to see the show go. Of course, fans watch the show closely and don’t miss a thing. They catch each hint and clue. A lot has gone on in the show. At the same time, a lot happened before the first episode....

Game of Thrones made Daenerys Targaryen into the Mad Queen, making its penultimate episode one of the series’ most divisive. But does “The Bells” deserve all the ire thrown its way? Ultimately it comes down to your interpretation of Dany’s arc and how much that interpretation was diluted by pacing, execution and cultural context, if at all. In the last half of Game of Thrones season 8, episode 5, Dany has roundly defeated Cersei’s forces in the relatively bloodless victory she’s said she wanted....

Game of Thrones was known for its dragon action over its eight-season run, but there might have been one we didn’t see as it was under the Stark home of Winterfell, as this theory claims. The HBO show was directly based on the book series by George R.R. Martin, and based iterations spawned a wealth of different fan theories across the years. Some of these proved to be true, including the iconic R+L=J, while others were either quashed or left unresolved by Game of Thrones, such as the notion of Tyrion secretly being a Targaryen....

Game of Thrones writer Dave Hill has revealed that one character who died in the episodes leading up to the finale almost made it to series end. The show just wrapped its 8th and final season, and the body count was high, and though fans were certainly anticipating “fire and blood,” the divisive ending certainly subverted expectations. Apparently, one of the many casualties along the way was originally meant survive....

Chandler Bing, the ultimate Sarcasm King, is arguably the most popular Friends character. Chandler being a fan-favorite isn’t surprising, since he is one of the wittiest sitcom characters ever created. The writers made sure to provide Matthew Perry with memorable and hysterical one-liners, which he delivered with utmost perfection. Over the course of ten seasons, Chandler had way more funny quips than any character should be allowed to. With so many awesome lines to chose from, picking the top ten for this list was almost as hard as picking which child to bring home from the Department of Human Services....

In May, multiple government agencies – including the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism; the Cabinet Secretariat; and Narita Airport – were hacked through the software-as-a-service platform. A Fujitsu spokesperson at the time confirmed to ZDNet’s Campbell Kwan that there was “unauthorized access to ProjectWEB, a collaboration and project management software, used for Japanese-based projects.” They suspended use of the tool and informed all impacted customers. After an investigation, Fujitsu said on Thursday that it appointed a CISO in October and put in place “measures to prevent reoccurrence… under a new information security management and operation framework....

Aside from the short demos that were given on stage yesterday at WWDC, and the few screenshots on Apple’s website, Apple hasn’t shown off iOS 7 in much detail. Although developers now have access to an early beta version of the software, iOS 7 won’t be released to the general public until later this year, and an iPad version of iOS 7 hasn’t been shown off at all. In order to give you a better idea of exactly what Apple is cooking up down in Cupertino, we’ve put together this walk-through of every redesigned application in iOS 7, showing off how they look and function....

A promise of a party on a private island with bikini-clad models and social media influencers. A social media campaign with orange tiles that made people feel they would get serious FOMO if they didn’t pony up for the outrageously high-priced tickets. A lackluster cheese sandwich posted to Twitter that exposed just how wrong everything went… and two documentaries that shared the real story of how the Fyre Festival was one big nothing....

For the entirety of its eight-season run, HBO’s Game of Thrones was always as exciting as it was shocking, as expectation-subverting as it was fanservice-providing. While its earlier seasons were more or less faithful to the existing books in George RR Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series, the later years -far more polarizing than their predecessors- have relied upon the creative minds behind the television adaptation, David Benioff and D....

Here’s the story behind House Stark’s origin in Game of Thrones. House Stark of Winterfell was one of the Great Houses of Westeros and the true rulers of the North. The House has been around since the Age of Heroes and was at the center of much of the conflict present in Game of Thrones. During the series, Eddard Stark was introduced to be the head of House Stark as well as the Lord of Winterfell....

Regardless of how anyone felt about the conclusion of Game of Thrones, it’s hard to argue that it wasn’t one of the grandest and most spectacular television shows ever made. This high fantasy epic set a new bar in terms of the production value an audience can expect from the shows they’re watching, and this intercontinental tale wove together centuries of mythology and years of character development into one of the most ambitious stories ever told....

Bringing up the topic of Game of Thrones ever since the series finale has a mixed response from the fanbase, as the ending was met with a polarizing response. Surprisingly, though, memes are one area that benefited out of it, seeing as we’ve got a whole lot of these since the conclusion of the series. However, Jon Snow was one such character who always had memes dedicated to him right from the start, and his awkward personality meant he contributed toward fans making even more memes....

Last September, Katherine Langford was announced as the series lead. Filming began this month in both England and Wales. Inspired by the King Arthur legend, Cursed is a narrative re-imagining through the eyes of a teenager named Nimue (Langford). The coming-of-age story chronicles Nimue’s complicated journey, as she’s destined to become the Lady of the Lake and gift the sword Excalibur to the mercenary Arthur....

As iOS developers will know, it can take a while to get a new iPhone app approved, with one online tracker showing that the average time is currently around ten days. The developers of a free app enabling people to express support for the Je Suis Charlie campaign following the terrorist attack in France didn’t want to wait. French news agency Nice-Matin emailed Tim Cook to request an expedited review, an assistant replied ten minutes later promising a review within the hour, and the app is now online....

Chandler Bing remains a relatable icon in TV lore today, despite having appeared in a series that concluded in 2004. Time really had little effect on Chandler’s infamous antics, jokes, and all-around awkwardness, as he is often considered one of the most timeless elements of friends. Many fans identified with Chandler and that is still true to this day. There’s nothing like representation for the underrepresented, and when Friends was airing, introverts weren’t typically main characters, especially not on sitcoms....
