For this reason, Incase created its new collection with help from BIONIC, a devoted materials company taking plastics out of the ocean and putting them into products meant for creatives....

After going hands-on with the Late-2016 13-inch MacBook Pro sans Touch Bar, I was finally able to spend some significant hands-on time with the real MacBook Pro for this generation, the Touch Bar-equipped version. Outside of a few obvious differences, the MacBook Pro with Touch Bar shares the same form factor and design as the version without Apple’s fancy new input method. Therefore, I’m going to avoid rehashing topics that I’ve already covered, such as in-depth impressions of the keyboard, trackpad, display, build quality, etc....

This week AT&T officially launched its new DirecTV Now streaming TV service. Teased out in March and unveiled on Tuesday, DirecTV Now went live on Wednesday with access to up to 120+ live and on-demand channels on iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and the web. So now that the new streaming service is here, how well does it actually work? The short answer is pretty well. My local cable company hasn’t had Viacom channels for about a decade and has a habit of losing more channels regularly, and satellite has always been too much of a hassle to try....

Teen soap Gossip Girl is a fan favorite television series for many reasons, particularly all the fashionable moments. These characters lived in New York, and they were always attending school functions, parties, runway shows, dances and other glamorous events. Therefore, they were always wearing super stylish and memorable outfits. While Jenny Humphrey was not everyone’s favorite person, she did have a very unique look. It evolved over the years, as she went from Little J to queen of the Met steps to an outcast, and the 10 outfits that are listed out down below were her best....

Greenpeace has described Apple as the most environmentally friendly tech company in the world for the third year running, thanks to its high use of renewable energy and the leadership role it takes in encouraging its supply chain to follow its own example.

In this tutorial, we will show you the steps to unlock the bootloader on Moto G Power, Moto G Stylus/G Pro, and Moto G Fast. While the budget segment is already brimming with tons of offerings from various OEMs, Motorola has added a couple of its own as well. And there are no reasons why it wouldn’t end up on the success side. Keeping aside the brand loyalty factor, Moto has always known to provide tough durable devices and on top of that, it has a clean near about stock Android experience....

Rumors have suggested that Apple is planning to release a new version of its Lightning to USB cable that would be reversible on both ends. Initially this cable was rumored to launch with the iPhone 6, but another report claims it will launch at a later date, possibly next year. Third-party manufacturers have already taken advantage of the hype surrounding this rumored cable and put it into production. The result is exactly what you’d expect…...

Here’s what the Google Webmaster Tools Help says on the matter: Hm. Not incredibly instructive. Looks like we’ll have to take it to the streets to get some answers. Or, at best, some theories. Google Sitelinks have been a topic of intense study and experimentation since they were rolled out years ago. After surveying some of the trials and errors reported by other websites, it’s a good bet that these factors matter most:...

A beloved aspect of The Joker, the most iconic villain in the DC Universe (and arguably all of comics), is that he has no definitive origin. He is so far gone that he doesn’t truly remember his own beginnings and has therefore recounted different versions of how he became the Clown Prince Of Crime. Fittingly then, the TV show Gotham’s version of The Joker is a hodgepodge of influences from the comic book and screen history of the character, with multiple potential origins thrown in....

GreedFall reviews have made a strong case for developer Spiders as one of the studios to watch moving forward, thanks in large part to a positive response that positions the RPG as one of the potential sleeper hits of the year. GreedFall was always going to carve out a niche for itself thanks to its unique spin on the genre, but few would have guessed it would launch with so much discussion surrounding its triumphs, and it seems reasonable to expect it will have the sales numbers to match that positivity by years’ end....

After six seasons of hunting down storybook monsters and building its own increasingly complex mythology, NBC’s horror/fantasy procedural Grimm finally turns to the page that reads The End. A Friday night mainstay for the past few years, the series proved itself to be a reliable ratings grab for the peacock network, surviving before and long after shows like Hannibal came and went. Though it never quite managed to grab a huge audience or to become a regular talking point from week to week, the series did the next best thing: it developed a passionate fan base....

According to IBM’s annual X-Force Threat Intelligence Index, based on security incidents and threat data gathered over 2021, businesses are now being “imprisoned” by the active exploitation of vulnerabilities and the deployment of ransomware. The tech giant’s researchers say that phishing remains the most common attack vector for cyberattacks but there has also been a 33% increase in the use of vulnerabilities against unpatched systems. In total, vulnerability exploits are considered to be responsible for 44% of the reported, known ransomware attacks included in the report....

The motion GT Advanced filed earlier for a closed hearing was to seek court permission to close its sapphire manufacturing plant, reports Re/code. As we noted earlier, the reason for the company’s failure appears to be that it was unable to meet Apple’s requirements for sapphire displays for the iPhone 6, though it remains unclear whether this was a quality issue or an inability to supply the volumes needed. Sapphire crystal maker GT Advanced Technologies, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection earlier this week, has asked the court’s permission to “wind down” operations at its manufacturing plant, less than a year after announcing a high-profile deal to supply the material to Apple....
