The 15-inch machine probably sports the aluminum unibody construction Apple pioneered with the Air. It’ll start out at $999 and Dell says it’s the thinnest notebook “on the planet”....

These models of sale defined as cybercrime-as-a-service represent the natural evolution of the offer in the underground, criminals can extend their activities to cyberspace easily and without great investment....

CD Projekt Red’s head of Cracow studio John Mamais revealed that Cyberpunk 2077 would no be ignoring open world quests, with around 75 “street stories” being designed for Night City’s gigantic map. Open world questing was one of the most consistently praised elements of the developer’s last major release in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, a feature that many felt made the world feel more like it was alive since Geralt could simply stumble into minor narratives and solve less pressing problems as they sprang up in his travels....

When Hurricane Irma hit land in 2017 a meme made the rounds implying Roland Emmerich’s 2004 disaster flick The Day After Tomorrow had predicted the horrendous weather situation – it didn’t, and here’s why. Back in 2017, it was a pretty scary time to be living in the U.S., Central America and the Caribbean. In the wake of Hurricane Harvey in August there came not one, not two but three more hurricanes – Irma, Katia, and Jose – which were followed by earthquakes in Mexico and wildfires in California....

Four episodes into Titans season 2, it’s time to acknowledge the truth; the show has actually become a good one. Intended as DC Universe’s flagship TV series, the first season of Titans was a real success. Unfortunately, that was largely in spite of its quality, rather than because of it. The biggest problem was that Titans season 1 suffered extensive reshoots. These reshoots appear to have focused on the character of Dick Grayson, essentially turning Brenton Thwaites’ role into a starring one....

Everything in Death Stranding is an attempt on the player’s life - and so it’s best if players know a few tips and tricks before getting started. Whether its terrorists, porters who have gone mad, the supernatural entities known as BTs or just the brutal, unrepentant world that’s been set back into the dark ages, Sam Bridges must struggle through every mission just to survive. It certainly doesn’t help that Death Stranding is a new genre of game altogether, one that borrows from several others but doesn’t have the same sort of precedents that consumers can lean on for help....

Sparrow [iTunes $2.99] is proving to be a very popular email client for the iPhone save for one very important piece. Apple rescinded the app’s push notification ability before its public release, meaning it is effectively neutered for real time messaging. That is a bummer for the otherwise impressive mail client. Not all hope is lost, however. If Sparrow lovers were looking for a reason to jailbreak, you now have one....
