Parks Rec The Awesome True Story Behind Bill Murray S Cameo

Original Lost Star Thinks A Prequel Or Reboot Could Totally Work

Original series actor Jorge Garcia has ideas on how a Lost prequel or reboot could work. The series revolutionized television when it premiered on ABC in 2004, introducing J.J. Abrams’ “mystery box” storytelling approach, and bringing terms like “flash-sideways” into the lexicon. But by the time Lost left the air in 2010, many believed its legacy was mostly one of frustration and disappointment after the endlessly twisty sci-fi thriller series finally became lost in its own tangled mythology....

Opinion Why Apple S Statement On Irish Tax Ruling Seems Tone Deaf But Nothing Will Happen Anytime Soon

Tim Cook has today posted an open letter regarding today’s ruling that the company must pay €13B ($15B) in back tax after Ireland broke the law in offering the company a sweetheart deal. In it, he states that Apple is ‘confident that the Commission’s order will be reversed’ on appeal. It’s honestly hard to see where such confidence comes from. The letter effectively makes three arguments, only one of which is relevant to the case …...

Oppo Announces N3 With Swivel Camera For Selfies And R5 With Just 4 5Mm Chassis

Oppo R5 – the world’s slimmest smartphone Oppo has managed to achieve an impressive feat with the just announced R5 – it is the world’s thinnest smartphone at just 4.85 mm. Impressive, you think? As a matter of fact, it is so slim that it doesn’t have a 3.5mm headphone jack. If more companies will start producing smartphones so thin, I guess we’ll need to change the standard for the headset port or make them completely wireless....

Pacific Rim Uprising Wraps Filming

When writer and director Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim first hit theaters in 2013, it wasn’t much of a success Stateside, despite the passionate love of its small, dedicated following of fans. Instead, the large blockbuster made most of its money internationally, leading to the possibility of a sequel to be called into question for several years, including from del Toro himself at points. But luckily, the world of Pacific Rim will be returning to the big screen next year after all with Pacific Rim: Uprising, though, it is worth noting that the highly-anticipated sequel, while featuring the return of the Kaiju and Jaegers, will not have del Toro reprising his role as director....

Leslie Knope had a statement, comment or response for essentially everything she experiences throughout the entirety of Parks and Recreation. She’s been known to make a powerful statement or two. Whether it was on a political campaign or simply helping her friends through day-to-day problems, she always knew what to say.

Opinion Cellular Apple Watch In Time Sure But These Issues Need Love Too

I touched on my thoughts on a cellular Apple Watch 2 briefly when detailing WSJ’s report, but I want to expand a bit further and think out loud about the possibility. In short, I think an untethered Apple Watch with built-in cellular connectivity is inevitable, but in the short term there are other problems I suspect will be solved first. That’s not to say that Apple couldn’t introduce cellular and fix other issues, but having an embedded data connection is low on my list of requests this year....

Given the otherwise punishing confines of the prison walls, Orange Is The New Black is no stranger to showing some more… intimate… moments. While we do get to see a few heart-warming, long term relationships, most of the inmates are just looking for some no-strings-attached prison sex.

Onward Movie Trailer Pixar Searches For The Magic In The World

Tom Holland and Chris Pratt voice elf brothers searching for some magic in the world in the trailer for Pixar’s upcoming animated movie, Onward. While the majority of the studio’s recent sequels (Finding Dory, Incredibles 2, Toy Story 4) have been well-received, they’ve also left some fans wondering when Pixar will be getting back to prioritizing original films. Thankfully, that’s exactly what they’re doing; the home of Woody and Buzz Lightyear currently doesn’t have any sequels in the pipeline, and has even scheduled a pair of original features to hit theaters in 2020 alone....

Opinion Why Apple Is Likely To End Up Paying That Estimated 8B European Back Tax Bill And More

The European Union warned us this week not to expect a speedy conclusion to the long-running investigation into the legality of Apple’s tax arrangements in Europe. The delay follows a decision back in December to expand the scope of the investigation. But while the wheels of EU tax investigations may grind exceedingly slowly, I’d be willing to wager quite large sums of money on the final outcome. It looks to me increasingly clear that Apple’s tax arrangements with the Irish government are going to be declared illegal, and that Apple is going to be faced with a significant bill for unpaid tax …...

Oracle Begins Bundling Ask Adware With Java For Mac Installations By Default

Windows users are likely already familiar with the adware that’s usually bundled with Oracle’s Java software, but for Mac users that annoyance has been mostly avoided. Unfortunately, ZDNet reports that today Oracle has updated its Java installer to include the Ask toolbar on OS X. The installation process automatically changes users’ browser homepage to the nearly useless Ask.com, which is populated by ads and mostly irrelevant results. The software also installs an Ask browser toolbar....
