Season 4 of Showtime’s Billions is just around the corner, and the new full trailer suggests Axe and Chuck will be making deals to ensure their enemies pay dearly. One of the most consistently entertaining series on television, Billions has become something of an obsession for a portion of its audience, as every season seems to raise the bar in terms of the level of its central characters’ audacity, while the series itself seems intent on upending viewers’ expectations with surprising twists, like the season 3 team-up between Chuck (Paul Giamatti), Axe (Damian Lewis), and Wendy (Maggie Siff)....

Black Panther is a fairly new member of the Avengers roster, but he has already made a huge impression. Thanks to his memorable debut in Captain America: Civil War, his ground-breaking solo film and his key part in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, he is one of the most exciting heroes in the MCU. With Captain America and Iron Man both gone, the Avengers will need a new hero to lead them and T’Challa aka Black Panther seems like a strong candidate....

The Black Panther has spent the past year freeing the previously-unknown Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda, an empire accidentally stranded in space thousands of years in the past, and ruled by the fearsome Emperor N’Jadaka. And while the tyrnant enemy merely adopted the name of T’Challa’s greatest enemy (known to outsiders as Killmonger), he’s about to become one with the original… creating Black Panther’s greatest enemy in the process. What makes such a synergy possible is the fact that the cosmic ruler N’Jadaka gained immortality and strength through a Venom-like symbiote, eventually obscuring the line between the man and the alien....

Android is the most popular operating system out there on the market. But the issue arises when developers and hobbyists want to get that experience on their beloved notebook/laptop/desktop computer. They are usually incompatible and even if it works, it attracts challenges because Android is designed for touch interfaces. Bliss OS – Android OS for PC Today I’ll be covering Bliss OS for PC and go through some steps explaining the ups and downs, and also list some advantages and disadvantages too....

Big Little Lies is hinting at a dark secret in Mary Louise Wright (Meryl Streep)’s past, which is connected to the actions of her son, Perry (Alexander Skarsgård), and also the death of her other child, Raymond. So far, Mary Louise has been mostly concerned with discovering the truth of what happened to Perry, who was killed in the season 1 finale by the so-called Monterey 5, but it’s what she is hiding that might prove most important to Big Little Lies....

Black Mirror’s “Black Museum” is packed with Easter eggs and references to past episodes, and here are all the objects both old and new. Charlie Brooker’s sci-fi anthology series Black Mirror premiered on British TV in 2011 and was acquired by Netflix in 2014, making the streaming service its current home. The series is notorious for its dark tone and examination of modern society and the role new technologies play in it....

Black Panther and A Quiet Place are among the 10 films nominated for the Producers Guild of America’s Daryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Pictures, which is the organization’s Best Picture award. As most cinephiles know, awards season has been in full swing for the past couple of months, with numerous Oscar precursors weighing in and naming their choices for the best in film. In contrast to previous years, several major categories remain wide open, so film buffs have been watching with great interest to see which movies and performances pull ahead....

Set photos from Black Widow appear to confirm the film’s place in the MCU timeline. Marvel Studios is currently trying to keep their post-Phase 3 slate under wraps until after the release of Spider-Man: Far From Home, which probably means they’re saving official announcements until their Hall H panel at S`an Diego Comic-Con. That said, the upcoming Black Widow movie is probably Marvel’s worst-kept secret, not least because Cate Shortland’s film is currently shooting in Budapest....

BLUETTI AC300 Details and Specs The BLUETTI AC300 is a rectangular power box with two sturdy handles on the top of each side for lifting the unit. The AC300 doesn’t come with a built-in battery pack. Instead, with its modular design, you can connect the separate heavy-duty B300 battery. With this modular design, the AC300’s weight is reduced significantly, making it easier to carry when the unit and the battery module are separated....

Apple has announced that it will boost Safari security for secure websites from September 1st. From that date, the browser will only accept HTTPS certificates issued within the past 13 months. While this is a technical-sounding change, it’s should provide greater protection against two separate risks … Background HTTPS is a secure version of the standard web protocol HTTP. It means that communication between the user and the server is encrypted in both directions....

For an insular group of nerds, the characters of The Big Bang Theory sure have an impressive social circle. How many of us got to play “Words With Friends” with Stephen Hawking? Or can claim Wil Wheaton as a mortal enemy? With the show’s influx of celebrity guest stars, it’s easy to forget about some of the supporting characters not played by household names. That’s all the more reason to remember them because it’s solely their talent that brings the laughs, not recognition....

Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) may not be doing that well in terms of box office, but the Margot Robbie-led flick is arguably the best entry in the DC Extended Universe thus far. Starting in 2013 via Zack Snyder and Henry Cavill’s Man of Steel, Warner Bros.’ own superhero franchise has been around for quite a while now. It has had its fair share of troubles, especially when it comes to its divisive reception....

The Birds of Prey movie gave real meaning to the Black Canary name. In fact, the movie gives Dinah Lance’s nom de plume two meanings based on the slang of the era in which she was created and the character’s upcoming solo movie could expand on the meaning of her name even more. Comic book historians still debate the precise meaning of Black Canary’s code-name from when the character first appeared in 1947....

Warning: SPOILERS below for Black Mirror: Bandersnatch Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is an interactive game that contains five main endings and more than a trillion possible story combinations. Here are all of the endings, how to get them, and what they all mean. Set in the U.K. in 1984, this unique episode of Charlie Brooker’s Netflix technology-based anthology requires the player to make choices to guide Stefan Butler (Fionn Whitehead), a programmer looking to create a choose-your-own-adventure video game based on the book Bandersnatch....

[This article contains SPOILERS for Captain America: Civil War] - One month out from Captain America: Civil War, the MCU is clicking right along. The film is an unquestionable success, marking Disney’s dominance in the movie market this year. However, the fallout from the superhero schism will have a major impact on Marvel’s film world. How it will effect the upcoming entries in the franchise and its characters, including Doctor Strange, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Black Panther, is hazy at this time....

Marvel unveiled exclusive footage for Black Panther at SDCC 2017 during their epic Hall H panel. Ryan Coogler’s film was one of the big two going into the panel along with Thor: Ragnarok, which got an intense second trailer during the event. However, because Panther is a little more out and got its own teaser just a few months ago this footage was only shown in the convention hall. Black Panther made his debut in Captain America: Civil War, but we only got to see his home nation of Wakanda briefly in the post-credits scene....

The WSJ has an interesting piece looking at how AI and other forms of technology are transforming the lives of blind people. Microsoft’s Seeing AI app is one particularly dramatic example – able to do things like identify faces, recognize bank notes, read handwriting and so on – but Apple’s tech is also said to be incredibly valuable … Blind users also rely on Siri and other intelligent assistants to do things like dictate messages and control smart home devices....

A man has been arrested on the set of Bond 25 after a camera was found in a women’s restroom. The last James Bond movie was titled Spectre and saw Bond go up against Blofeld, played by Christoph Waltz. Ever since the film was released it has been an uphill battle to get the 25th Bond movie made, but it does finally seem to be moving forward. After years of speculation on whether Craig would return to the role, he confirmed in 2017 that he would be playing 007 one more time....
