Although many people expected that Apple’s Spring Forward event would mostly focus on the Apple Watch, more than half of the event — notably, the first part — covered other topics. Collectively, there were so many interesting developments that their individual significance was somewhat lost, particularly given that long-awaited Watch pricing news wrapped up the event. That’s why I wanted to reconsider what Spring Forward revealed about some of Apple’s non-Watch products....

The agreement, which is slated to close sometime during calendar year 2022, is expected to be immediately accretive to Oracle’s earnings, and to provide “a huge additional revenue growth engine for Oracle for years to come as Oracle expands Cerner’s business into many more countries throughout the world.” The purchase of Cerner will give Oracle an instant, large-scale presence in the healthcare IT market. Oracle’s targeting of healthcare is a logical next step for a company that already offers industry’ specific solutions for customers in the financial services, telecom, utilities, pharmaceuticals, hospitality, retail, food & beverage, construction & engineering, manufacturing, and government markets....

For the first time in the series history, people will be able to purchase the original Diablo game online and DRM-free. Fans were clamoring for Diablo 3 to be made available on the Switch last year and got their wish....

Outer Wilds, a space-exploration open world sandbox title from developer Mobius Digital, has officially received a release date — Thursday, May 30, 2019, for Xbox One and the Epic Games Store. Outer Wilds has impressed as an ambitious effort that will showcase adept environmental design and the kind of build-your-own-adventure take on exploration that has impressed in bigger releases like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Outer Wilds has been around since 2015 in its alpha version, but a full launch has been a long-time coming....

Netflix drama Ozark has been frequently compared to Breaking Bad (because people desperately want another Breaking Bad) but in reality, the only similarity between the two shows is the drugs. While Breaking Bad has an antihero who is keen on getting deeper and deeper into the drug-dealing businesses, Ozark has an antihero who is keen on running away from it. Jason Bateman plays Marty Byrde, a financial advisor who is forced to launder money for a Mexican cartel in order to save his life....

After Sonny Dickson posted credible photos of an iPad 5 front panel yesterday, he’s now got hold of the claimed rear casing (which we first showed you back in January) and put the two together. Now all he needs is a screen, a touch-panel, a few buttons, a battery, some circuit boards … More photos below … The mating of the two doesn’t really tell us anything we didn’t already know: the new iPad, expected to be launched around October (not September), will look like a scaled-up iPad Mini, with thinner bezels on the sides....

Wonder Woman’s fortunes changed, though, when she made a gallant entrance in 2016’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Jenkins wants to keep the momentum rolling following the release of the character’s solo movie – which traces Wonder Woman’s roots back to the early 20th century on the sheltered island paradise of Themyscira. In an interview with the Toronto Sun, Jenkins shares her ideas for a sequel: “I’m excited for her to come to America and become the Wonder Woman we are all familiar with from having grown up around her as an American superhero....

Will there be a Planet Earth III? The first season of the BBC’s groundbreaking nature documentary Planet Earth aired way back in 2006. Combining cutting-edge technology and the dulcet tones of narrator David Attenborough, Planet Earth gave nature lovers a breathtaking global overview of the planet with each of its 11 episodes focusing on a different environmental habitat – from mountains and seas to jungles and deserts. Planet Earth was then the most expensive wildlife documentary ever filmed and took a jaw-dropping five years to make....

Plex today is updating its app to officially bring offline support for podcasts. The company is also making it easier to import podcasts from other podcast players.

For this poll, we’re going to consider the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, AirPods, and Apple TV lineup.

Apple sells today seven different phones. It goes all the way from the 2018 iPhone XR to the powerful iPhone 12 Pro Max....

Preacher’s final season is underway, and Arseface (aka Eugene) may be one of the best changes that the show made to the comics. The gloriously dark adaptation of the Preacher comic has made a lot of changes from the start; some storylines have been dropped, others have been expanded, and Annville went from being a footnote to the setting for the entire first season. This isn’t surprising, of course, as most comic adaptations have to tweak some things in order to get from the page to the screen, but it’s something that Preacher does extremely well, cutting out the unnecessary and honing in on the characters that truly matter....

Six years ago today Steve Jobs introduced the iPad on stage in what was arguably one of the best product demos from Apple or any other tech company for that matter. The hype was tremendous but the demo was low key. Jobs plainly explained why the iPad needed to exist and where Apple believed it fit between iPhones and Macs, then offered an almost hypnotizing demonstration of what using an iPad was like....

Apple showed up new features coming to CarPlay back at WWDC in June including the ability to control Pandora and Waze with Siri. We’re still awaiting the big iOS 13 update from Waze, but Pandora has just released the new version of its music player for iPhone. Pandora Music for iOS 13 touts Siri control from iPhone including through Apple CarPlay and HomePod. The new version also brings support for Apple’s new system-wide Dark Mode appearance which supports toggling between modes on a schedule or manually....

Why do we need Session Handling? During test execution, the Selenium WebDriver has to interact with the browser all the time to execute given commands. At the time of execution, it is also possible that, before current execution completes, someone else starts execution of another script, in the same machine and in the same type of browser. In such situation, we need a mechanism by which our two different executions should not overlap with each other....

What is Password Hashing? Password hashing is the process of encrypting a user’s password before storing it into a database. The encryption is one way and passwords once hashed cannot be decrypted to their original text value. Why do we need to Hash Passwords? Password hashing has become extremely important in today’s time. Assume a scenario where your database gets hacked and now all the details of your users are exposed to the hacker....

Players will enjoy returning to the world of the Patapons to help them find their way to the legendary place known as Earthend. In Patapon 2 Remastered, the Patapons and Zigotons set sail on their new ship, but it gets destroyed when a Kraken attacks them....

There’s no doubt that Peep Show is almost entirely about Mark and Jez. It is through their eyes and experiences that the stories are told, and, through them, we get the most laughs. But, there are tons of side characters throughout the series that get a lot of time to shine. Some of the best moments come from Sophie, Dobbie, and Super Hans, and a few of them are even funnier than Mark and Jez....

Pinterest launched its Lens feature earlier this year first as a beta, then to all users in March.
