  • Chaos reigns in Discovery+ & HBO Max streaming service merger

    Warner Bros. Discovery is all over the place at the moment. Their big DCU shake-up by James Gunn has had the most underwhelming announcement as the first phase chapter. It looks like it will just fizzle out again. 

    The Honest Trailers for Black Adam put it aptly - the reason why the faces of all the DC superheroes are hidden in the opening DC movies montage is because no one is sure who will play them in the next movie.
    Looks like no one is sure what to do with their streaming service(s) either.

  • Biden demands antitrust action against Big Tech during State of the Union

    Why doesn't the POTUS ask the people directly, rather than listening to second-hand half-truths and stories from people with ulterior motives?

  • Jony Ive redesigns Comic Relief's iconic red nose

     "This new and seemingly simple Red Nose has been a fabulously complex little object to design and make and has involved our entire team. We hope it brings a little moment of joy to everyone who wears one."

    The statement sounds exactly like a satire someone would do of Ive, or like Ive hired the writers of The Onion to come up with the statement.

    Ive's partnership with Jobs was one of the greatest ever in the tech industry, if not the greatest. Maybe Ive felt a little lost with Jobs gone, but I'd never undermine his contributions to Apple.

  • Apple Fitness+ review: Two years later, barely treads water

    I assume that Apple owns the entire stack in Apple Fitness, so to speak. The trainers are employed/ hired by Apple and I am not aware of any videos or workouts that are copyrighted by someone else. So on the whole, I don't know why Apple hasn't made it available across more countries. 
    It seems like the one thing that would require very little red tape clearance.

  • iPhone continues to retain trade-in value far more than rivals

    I still have 2 vintage iPhones sitting in a drawer. Soon to be 3 if I can't figure out what to do with them. No one wants them because I keep them too long.
    I'm just collecting the iPhones. I've still got the original in working condition.
