Le Figaro reports that renowned designer Philippe Starck (pictured, right) is working with Apple on a “revolutionary” product due in eight months. Interestingly, Stark reveals that he had a close collaborative relationship with Apple’s former Chief Executive Officer Steve Jobs with whom he met on a monthly basis for seven years. While this is beyond tantalizing, much can be lost in translation here. Starck already sells products in the Apple Store, and we could be talking about an iPod dock or iPad case or something less exciting than an Apple HDTV or new camera....

In this Mac-centric Friday 5, I wanted to highlight features from several macOS apps that I utilize on a regular basis. A few of these apps are built-in macOS apps, while others can be found on the Mac App Store and directly from third-party developers. As a huge fan of the Mac, these are some of the apps that I use most often. Perhaps you’ll find a new gem in this week’s edition of Friday 5?...

While everyone ends happy enough in Friends, the love lives of the main characters are rocky, to say the least throughout the course of the show. All of the main characters date a wide variety of people during the shows 10 seasons, and they certainly know how to pick them! Whether they’re cheaters or if they’re just plain annoying, the main characters do date some horrible people during the show. Of course, this is all part of the ups and downs that comes with life and is one of the reasons that the show was so successful....

There are some pretty powerful relationships in Game of Thrones. Whether they are political partnerships, genuine friendships or something more romantic, these relationships are what pushed the show forward into more dramatic territory. One supposedly strong friendship was between Missandei and Daenerys Targaryen. However, there are multiple signs that point to the fact that not everything was as it seemed. Here’s 10 reasons why the duo weren’t actually real friends....

Actress Kae Alexander took over the role of Leaf from Octavia Alexandru in Game of Thrones season 6 - but what was the story behind the recast? The member of the Children of the Forest only made one short appearance in season 4 before she returned for a bigger role in season 6. In total, Leaf appeared in five episodes in Game of Thrones before meeting her demise. When Bran Stark and his group were searching for the Three-Eyed Raven beyond the Wall, they were attacked by a horde of wights....

After nearly a decade, Game of Thrones is finally over - and did it manage to sneak Howland Reed into the present-day events of the show? The Game of Thrones series finale saw Bran become King of the Six Kingdoms, but not because of his bloodlines or his armies, but by being voted in by a council of the great Lords and Ladies of Westeros. It was an epic scene, and one that introduced a few new faces....

Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are coming to Netflix, thanks to a huge new deal. The pair took on the herculean task of adapting George R.R. Martin’s popular series of epic novels back in 2006. Development on the series began soon after, with the first episode airing on HBO in 2011. Though opening with moderate acclaim and buzz from audiences, the show became an outright cultural phenomenon over the course of its proceeding seasons....

You can thank Netflix for the enduring popularity of sitcoms such as The Office and Friends, at least according to Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos. Soon, Friends and The Office will be leaving the streaming platform, like Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Doctor Who before them. While Netflix first popularized streaming and binge-watching, new streaming options are stealing away prized Netflix possessions. Every month, more Netflix staples leave for a competitor....

Funko is the collectibles company with, arguably, the most licenses of any toy company out there. They seem to have cornered much of the nerd-based audiences with their plethora of action figures – the Funko Pop! Vinyl, arguably their most beloved product – and subscription boxes that run the gamut from DC to Marvel to Star Wars. Their Star Wars subscription box is called Smuggler’s Bounty and each month a new Pop!...

Despite the fact that Game of Thrones is over, several mysteries surrounding the show and book series are still alive and well. One of the most mysterious areas in Westeros is the Wall and its inhabitants called the Night’s Watch. The Watch take vows that indebt them to serve the Night’s Watch for their whole lives, guarding the realms of men from the Wildlings and the White Walkers that inhabit the Lands Beyond the Wall....

Game of Thrones ended by making A Song Of Ice And Fire canon, thanks to Samwell Tarly. The hit HBO fantasy show is based on George R.R. Martin’s book series, the first of which is called A Game of Thrones. The whole series, however, is titled “A Song Of Ice & Fire.” The title itself has many meanings (just as the show’s wound up having). It refers to the mystical battle between dragons and white walkers, the prominence of Targaryens and Starks, of Jon Snow’s parentage (he’s the son of Rhaegar and Lyanna, members of those respective families), and even more abstract ideas....

After much speculation, the next Pokemon titles have been revealed to be Pokemon Sword and Shield. Along with these new core RPGs comes a new region in the form of Galar and an entirely new generation of Pokemon. While there are plenty of people excited for these new adventures, there are some concerns and desires going into the game on top of rumored features. The Pokemon series has gone through a lot of changes over the years, and there are plenty of features we want to see in Pokemon Sword and Shield....

We received word from a reliable source at Foxconn in China that the iPhone 5, as it is currently being called, is now gearing for production. The source said various sample devices are also floating around (they vary slightly from one another), so it is impossible to tell which one will be the final. Some things in common with all of them, however, are: 4+ inch display (made by LG on at least one of them)....

When it comes to the most popular sitcom characters, Rachel Green is among the top contenders, along with Joey Tribbiani, Phoebe Buffay, and Chandler Bing. There’s another character on Friends who should be just as beloved: Monica Geller. Ross Geller’s sister and Chandler’s eventual wife is known for her cooking and cleaning skills, along with a general sense that everything needs to be flawless. Although Joey and Chandler are known for their hilarious zingers and jokes throughout the sitcom’s ten-season run, Monica has a lot of awesome quotes, too....

Facing slowing growth for the first time since the iPad’s 2010 debut, Apple is working on several significant software and hardware updates to reinvigorate the tablet over the next year. Apple is developing a dual-app viewing mode, 12-inch iPads codenamed “J98” and “J99,” as well as support for multi-user logins, according to sources briefed on the plans. First planned for debut last year, the split-screen applications feature for the iPad could be introduced as soon as June at Apple’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference, while multi-user login support and the 12-inch iPads will apparently arrive later…...

The mysterious prophecy surrounding Azor Ahai is one of the most intriguing in both Game of Thrones and a Song of Ice and Fire. It is said that Azor Ahai helped to end the Long Night eight thousand years before the events in Game of Thrones. The legend says that Azor Ahai forged his burning sword, Lightbringer after he tempered its steel by stabbing his own wife, Nissa Nissa. With Lightbringer, Azor Ahai was able to defeat the Others and drive off the Long Night....

Tyrion Lannister is easily one of the most popular characters on Game of Thrones. Though he doesn’t get much respect from the people of Westeros, the audience recognizes him as a brilliant, funny, and brave man. He is also one of the few people in the show that seems to want to do good. Despite all of his good qualities, Tyrion is far from perfect. He’s made plenty of mistakes throughout the series including some rather big ones....

Over the last few Friday Fun groovyPost’s, we’ve mentioned a few old-school gaming articles, like the Android Nintendo 64 Emulator, our ZSNES article and our tutorial guide to playing old-school DOS games on a Vista or Windows 7 computer.

Downloading Steam Steam is a great online service that let’s you buy and download games for Windows and the Mac....

A new trailer for Frozen 2 has arrived online. The sequel’s marketing has been fairly secretive up to this point, not unlike the campaign for its fellow Disney tentpole Avengers: Endgame. Neither the teaser nor full-length trailer were particularly big on plot details either, focusing more on a single scene (where Elsa encounters the mystical water spirit Nokk) than anything else. Since then, though, the Mouse House has started to pull the curtain back a little further on the Frozen sequel....
