While many artists and companies seem to have understood this principle, the vast majority of corporations and even governments entirely have proved to be run by muggles. The curiosity itself strikes me right from the heavens and makes me wonder why some, after failing with SOPA, ACTA and the rest of those threatening acts, try another censorship scheme. Judging by Google’s own sayings, this year in December, humanity may once more have to battle against internet censorship and all of its devious consequences....

Joker easily won the box office during its opening weekend, shattering the all-time October opening weekend record in the process. This past Friday, at long last, the already highly-controversial Joker opened in theaters nationwide. Touring the fall film festivals earlier this year (winning the Golden Lion at Venice), the latest from director Todd Phillips earned equal parts praise and controversy. For every person who proclaimed Joker was a masterpiece, there was someone criticizing it for its depiction of horrific violence or raising questions about its thematic content....

Warning: MAJOR SPOILERS ahead for Joker. Now that Warner Bros. and DC Films’ new standalone Joker movie is in theaters, here are the biggest reveals and spoilers from the film.

Another week, another Jony Ive interview … The Financial Times today carries a somewhat rambling description of a lunch with Apple’s design chief. Almost as much time is devoted to describing the food as it is to the interview itself, but there are a few interesting quotes along the way … Journalist Nicholas Foulkes suggests that Apple is perhaps being a little cheeky in describing itself as the number one watch brand when the Apple Watch isn’t really a watch in the traditional sense....

Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs was known for being vocal when it came to talking about Google’s Android. Comments from Jobs referring to Android as a stolen product and vowing to destroy it even made it into Walter Isaacson’s official biography about the chief. Now, a judge presiding in a patent case with Motorola ruled that he would allow the comments to be referenced in trial, which goes against requests from Apple’s lawyers....

When it comes to blockbuster films, it’s always better to have the speculations go on a little while before the release date arrives. Since there’s a wide amount of possibilities that can be seen in the final product, it makes sense to come up with several scenarios. In the case of Jurassic World: Dominion, we’ve had almost thirty years’ worth of storylines to derive from. The previous two films have set up the final film in the series well, and with characters from the original trilogy returning, we just might see these 10 storylines become canonical....

For example, an array is {-10, 5, 1, 6, -9, 2, -7, 3, -5}. Its sub arrays can be: {-10,5,1,6} or {5,1,6} or {2,7,3, -5} etc. But {5,1,6,3} cannot be a subarray because they are not maintaining the sequences. If you notice, among all the subarrays, following highlighted subarray (5,1,6) has the maximum summation value: The sum of the subarray {5,1,6} = 11, is the maximum sum in all possible combinations of subarray of the above array....

Apple’s previous event, WWDC, was all about the software that runs on Apple’s devices. However, the last time that Apple actually talked in-depth about new devices was at September and October events in the fall of 2012. The September event discussed iPhone hardware, and the October keynote brought brand-new iPad hardware. The September event discussed the iPhone 5, a major re-thinking of the iPhone experience. The changes brought a new, larger display, a more powerful processor, and improved camera hardware technologies....

The WSJ revealed some iPhone 6 production numbers as Foxconn struggles to meet demand from pre-orders: the company is operating around 100 production lines around the clock, has 200,000 workers dedicated to production of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus – and is manufacturing 540,000 units a day. “We have been churning out 140,000 iPhone 6 Plus and 400,000 iPhone 6 every day, the highest daily output ever, but the volume is still not enough to meet the preorders,” said a person familiar with the matter …...

Major apps and games developers including Fortnite, PlayerUnknown: Battlegrounds (PUBG), and other titles are warning players not to update to iOS 13 due to a bug with the triple-finger tap-and-hold gesture. The text-editing gesture is affecting gameplay as it steals touches from the game, even though there are no textfields visible. This affects lots of apps but especially games that involve players regularly having three fingers on the display, like first-person shooters....

Reuters had claimed that chairman Liu Young-Way was aiming to be at 50% of normal production levels by the end of this month, and 80% in March… However, the company has today issued a statement that the report was ‘not factual.’ The world’s largest contract electronics maker also aims to resume 80% of production in China in March, added the source, who has direct knowledge of the matter, citing internal targets set by Chairman Liu Young-Way […]...

With the iPhone XR containing the same A12 Bionic chip as the iPhone XS, we expected it to offer identical performance, and this has now been confirmed. Macworld reported on the results it found from iPhone XR benchmarks … The iPhone XR offers the same performance enhancements over last year’s iPhone X as its more expensive siblings. Indeed, in one of the iPhone XR benchmarks – a GPU test – the iPhone XR came out on top, likely as a result of having fewer pixels to push....

Stephen King’s IT is heading to the big screen this year, but real-life clowns are none-too-happy about that. There’s been a good deal of buzz around the film already. Fore starters, King’s original IT book has numerous fans. When you factor in those who also have fond memories of the 1990s IT TV miniseries, the business of re-adapting the horror classic is a daunting one.

Sonic The Hedgehog’s blue alien critter has been the talk of the town, for better or worse, when it comes to the new video game film.
