During a set visit last summer, the Spider-Man: Far From Home producers revealed that the Audi commercial that aired as part of Spider-Man: Homecoming’s promotion left such a lasting impression on Marvel Studios it earned comedian J.B.

SpringInvaders is a $0.99 jailbreak tweak for jailbroken iPhones that just launched today. It’s very obvious that the game gets its inspiration from Space Invaders, the classic arcade title. Instead of taking out aliens, however, gamers are tasked with shooting down enemy ships that turn out to be modified versions of the app icons installed on your iPhone. Your own ship is moved from side to side using the iPhone’s accelerometer, and a tap on the screen causes your ship to shoot tiny app icon bullets at enemies....

John Wick was one of the most pleasant surprises of 2014, serving as the ideal comeback vehicle for star Keanu Reeves. Thanks to its innovative “gun-fu” action sequences and surprisingly emotional story, the film grossed $86 million worldwide on just a $20 million budget, which was more than enough to green light a sequel. That followup, John Wick: Chapter 2, is just a few weeks away from its theatrical premiere, and distributor Lionsgate has been sure to raise awareness....

David Lynch had never intended for the Laura Palmer murder to be solved, but following pressure from the network and viewers, her killer was revealed early in season 2. This had a major effect on Twin Peaks, which notably floundered with goofy subplots and a lack of purpose for most of the episodes that followed. The show was cancelled at the end of season 2 on a cliffhanger ending, while Lynch tried to put Laura back to the forefront with prequel movie Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me....

Several users on Apple’s Support Communities reported that their new MacBook Airs have crashed frequently, and in most cases they have pinned Google Chrome as the main cause. Luckily, all of our speculation was cleared up this evening. Google confirmed to Gizmodo that Chrome is the culprit behind the kernel panics on Macs featuring an Intel HD 4000 graphics chip (aka the new MacBook Airs). Google said it is working to fix the issue, and it temporarily disabled some of Chrome’s GPU acceleration on the new MacBook Air via an autoupdate....

IT Chapter Two is a violent movie, but its opening scene goes too far in that regard, and actually ends up having a negative impact upon the rest of the movie as a result. The sequel to 2017’s IT picks up 27 years after Pennywise’s last attack on Derry, Maine, and finds the Losers’ Club having to band back together to once again defeat the evil entity known as It, this time hopefully for good....

A very common complaint from iOS users is that unused stock apps cannot be hidden or removed from the Home screen, so ‘less useful’ apps like Tips or Stocks have to be hidden in a folder somewhere to get them off the Home screen. As noted by AppAdvice, the internal App Store JSON data source has added a couple of new interesting keys in the last few weeks, which suggests that Apple is in fact adding the ability to hide stock apps soon …...

Spider-Man: Far From Home followed Peter Parker to the other side of the world as he joined his classmates on a school trip, but little did he know there was a new type of villain waiting for him....

Hobbs & Shaw marked the franchise’s first direct spinoff and a potential launchpad for more....

Chairman Bennie Thompson said in a statement that the subpoenas were issued due to “inadequate responses to prior requests for information.” The subpoenas related to “the spread of misinformation, efforts to overturn the 2020 election, domestic violent extremism, and foreign influence in the 2020 election.” “Two key questions for the Select Committee are how the spread of misinformation and violent extremism contributed to the violent attack on our democracy, and what steps – if any – social media companies took to prevent their platforms from being breeding grounds for radicalizing people to violence,” Thompson said....
