Blizzard’s Overwatch League’s latest controversy has to do with a Chinese Contenders team and the way an attempted signing of one of their players to Toronto Defiant allegedly went south after significant interference. There has been no official comment from Blizzard yet, but Contenders team Lucky Future is alleging that Toronto Defiant behaved fraudulently by telling one of the team’s top players that they had been signed when their contract was invalid....

Back in 2009, NBC blessed the world with the workplace sitcom about a Parks and Recreation department set in a small town in Indiana and made audiences everywhere dream of working for their local government office. The characters and their hilarious escapades encapsulated how any small town in America could have countless stories to tell. Regardless of how much the Pawnee, Indiana parks and recreation department actually got done during the seven-year-long series, there were a few members of the staff who weren’t exactly firing on all cylinders....

The decision of the popular writing app Ulysses to switch from a one-off purchase to a monthly or annual subscription has attracted a great deal of criticism. Here’s a sprinkling of views from the comments. The company, of course, has its own rationale … I bought this on iOS last week. As far as I’m concerned, that was a total waste of money now they’re moving to this subscription model....

The Apple Watch Series 2 announcement isn’t earth shattering. Swim proof, built-in GPS, brighter display, faster chip, and same design. Most first-gen Apple Watch users will be satisfied with the speed gains that the watchOS 3 software update offers and won’t consider upgrading, and first time Apple Watch buyers will have a better experience with the new hardware and software from day one. I’m hardly disappointed personally. I asked for a better sports watch and that’s what Apple delivered....

I have been using the Otterbox Defender case for the iPhone 4S for a couple of months now and it is one of the most versatile and most protective pieces of phone protection currently on the market. The outer design of the case, what you and others see, is an apparently rubberized material – but do not be deceived by that soft appearance and soft feel. It is a heavy-duty case that does a fantastic job at protecting your phone....

She might not be as popular with fans as Jamie or Claire Fraser, but every fan of the Outlander series would agree the show wouldn’t be quite the same without Brianna Fraser or (Brianna MacKenzie as she is later known). Brianna’s story is unique in that she grew up in modern times, only finding out about time travel much later on, when her mother Claire opened up to her. Viewers have to respect the headstrong character who believed her mother and proceeded to go on an adventure through time....

While we’ve been expecting the 12-inch MacBook Air for quite some time and some of the details have long been rumored, the design exclusively revealed in Mark Gurman’s report has raised eyebrows throughout the tech world. Especially the most dramatic element: the reduction of the ports to just one multifunction USB-C socket, a headphone socket and a pair of microphones. The $64,000 questions are: will this ruthlessly cut-down approach prove workable—and is this a design unique to this one machine, or does it represent the future of all MacBooks … ?...

A Nikkei report today suggested that Apple moving production out of China is under consideration as part of a ‘fundamental restructuring of its supply chain.’ The report suggests Apple’s goal could be to move as much as 15-30% of its production out of the country. It’s not the first time we’ve heard talk of a significant shift of product assembly in other countries. Foxconn is beginning mass-production of iPhones in India at some point this year, and it recently suggested that all iPhones created for sale in the US could be made outside China....

Life at Litchfield prison may very well be over now, but that doesn’t mean that fans have forgotten about the characters of Orange Is The New Black, as there are plenty of questions that people have about the main characters in the show. After investing so much time and emotion into the various storylines that the show provided, it is always going to be impossible to properly wrap up every single one, and that was the case with the popular Netflix show....

The 2020 Oscars takes place in February, but here’s when the nominations are announced and how people can watch them. The Oscars represent the culmination of the entire movie awards season, a ceremony drenched in Hollywood-style pomp and circumstance. Hosted every year by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, the announcement of the Academy Awards nominations initiates the final steps of studios’ campaigns. Even so, with most, if not every major guild and critics association nominations already been announced, film fans with a working knowledge of the Hollywood awards system can probably put together some of the pieces....

Look, we hear you. We’re all on the same boat here - it’s been almost a year since the last episode of Outlander graced our screens. And while the season 5 premiere is less than a month away, the closer it gets, it somehow feels like time goes slower. Especially if you’re one heck of an invested fan, this droughtlander has been going on for way too long. Thankfully, we live in a day and age where plenty of distractions can come your way while you anxiously await the return of a beloved show....

People really want Danny DeVito to play Wolverine in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with a new petition already garnering 50,000 signatures. Created by Roy Thomas, Len Wein, and John Romita Sr, Wolverine debuted in the closing panels of The Incredible Hulk #180 before having a more prominent role in issue #181. Also known as Logan/Weapon X, Wolverine was later crossed over to join a revamped version of the X-Men and sometimes The Avengers....

It seems not all is well with the Final Cut Studio development team, with a report claiming release of the next version of the insanely widely-used professional video-editing solution has been set back until 2011. We had originally been expecting Final Cut Studio would ship this year, but development has suffered “significant setbacks”, a French report explains. This has also led the Apple team to scale back the scope of the release....

Pandora has a new audio feature out today called Pandora Stories — and no, it’s not another Snapchat clone. The streaming service is pairing its existing catalog of music playlists with its growing collection of podcasts (sort of) to create a new listening experience. Here’s the pitch for Stories from Pandora: As a fan of both audio forms, it’s a neat concept (even if Pandora is using the term ‘podcast’ generously here)....

But does Apple need to compete in this space, when it arguably already has its own version of Echo or Home? The one that’s either on your wrist or in your pocket … Each approach has pros and cons, of course. A speaker provides more convenient access. If you want to switch on your lights or ask a question or play some music, you have only to speak and the always-listening speaker will respond....

The App Store has been around since iOS 2.0 (back when iOS was still called iPhone OS), and has undergone a variety of changes since it was launched. Aside from countless new features that have been added over time, the store has also seen several redesigns. With iOS 9 set to be announced on Monday, let’s take a look at some ways Apple could simplify the App Store interface while making it more consistent with other apps and adding some much needed functionality tweaks....
