The glasses are currently in the hands of developers and haven’t been made available to the general public, and there’s already a movement to ban them from public places. It seemed to start with a bar in Seattle banning them (arguably a smart publicity stunt) and lawmakers in West Virginia pushing a law that bans them while driving. Recently the headlines were that Google is axing Google Glass porn apps....

iOS hacker pod2g exaggerated the situation last week when he tweeted that he does not know of anyone working on a jailbreak for the third-generation Apple TV. The news was definitely a little disconcerting for those hoping to get a jailbreak on their 1080p Apple TVs. However, there might be a light at the end of the tunnel for 1080p Apple TV owners who are after the jailbreak features. We learned from someone with close knowledge of the project that a jailbreak for the third-generation Apple TV is indeed in the works....

The CW’s Arrow started this incredible run of DC TV shows that have become interconnected, creating the Arrowverse. However, when it first launched in 2012, it was just a very well-made superhero TV show. As the series has gone on, more and more characters have been introduced. Arrow has one of the best cast of supporting characters of any TV show, but many of them didn’t get nearly as much screen time as they should have....

Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA), is a feature of Windows (except Windows NT) operating systems. With APIPA, DHCP clients can automatically self-configure their IP configuration with an IP address and subnet mask when a DHCP server isn’t available. When a DHCP client boots up, it first looks for a DHCP server in order to obtain an IP configuration. If the client is unable to successfully negotiate a DHCP lease, it uses APIPA to automatically configure itself with an IP address from a range that has been reserved especially for Microsoft....
Avatar: The Last Airbender may be over, but that won’t stop fans from talking about the series. There’s still plenty for the audience to learn, and even more that fans should already know. There are facts that any fan should know about the main characters, of course. But there are plenty of secondary characters that can be too easily overlooked as well. Ty Lee is one of those characters. She stands out from her Fire Nation peers, even in her small group of three, and with good reason, so it’s a shame some fans overlook the character....
[vimeo http://vimeo.com/83331745] I take the view that wires are evil: anything that can be wireless should be wireless. My iOS devices sync via wifi, my keyboard and trackpad are Bluetooth, I have Wemo-controlled lighting, Tado-controlled heating and love cloud services. But there’s one thing in my living-room that still relies on a wire: the connection between Mac and hifi system. I tried a Bluetooth link, and the quality just wasn’t there....

“I think I’m not alone in saying that we see cyber as very much a team sport,” Commonwealth Bank of Australia CISO Keith Howard said during the virtual Cyber Live event on Wednesday. “The competitors, from my perspective, is not [the other banks], it’s the attackers … at the end of the day, we’re stronger when we work across industry, across education, and also work across government as well.” This joint security effort between the big four occurs regularly, according to National Australia Bank CSO Sandro Bucchianeri....
Avengers: Endgame’s script explains how Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) knew they needed to travel back to the ’70s for another shot at the Tesseract/Space Stone. Following their defeat in Avengers: Infinity War, Earth’s Mightiest Heroes were given the chance to bring back everyone who got dusted by Thanos’ (Josh Brolin) snap five years prior. Thanks to the idea of Time Heist suggested by Scott Lang/Ant-Man (Paul Rudd), the remaining team went back in time to collect all six Infinity Stones prior to the Mad Titan getting his hands on them....
Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Endgame bucks Marvel Cinematic Universe tradition by not including ANY post-credits scenes, but there is something special in the credits. Post-credits scenes were around long before Marvel Studios released their very first installment in the MCU, 2008’s Iron Man. However, Marvel used post-credits scenes in an interesting way, to set up movies that weren’t necessarily direct sequels, but were interconnected within the larger framework of their shared cinematic universe....
The DCeased series saved some of its most horrifying moments for last, delivering the moment Aquaman fans were waiting for in the process. And as an added bonus, Tom Taylor and Trevor Hairsine saw fit to make Arthur Curry’s final appearance in DC’s zombie apocalypse not only epic, but a horrifying, nightmare version of one of Jason Momoa’s coolest Aquaman movie moments. As those who read the entirety of DCeased will already know, all his Atlantean strength and combat skills didn’t prevent Arthur from being killed in the very first pages of the series....
