It seems AT&T thinks throttling the data speeds of customers without telling them about it isn’t such a big deal. The Federal Trade Commission sued AT&T back in 2014 for “deceptive and unfair data throttling” after the company imposed caps on unlimited data contracts, beyond which it reduced their data speeds by almost 90%. The Federal Communications Commission joined the party last month, fining AT&T $100 million – and The Hill reports that the carrier now wants that fine reduced to just $16,000....

If you read the headlines, you might firmly believe that the comic book industry is in a state of total, imminent crisis. Back in 2017, a “Meet the Publishers” panel at San Diego Comic-Con kicked off a storm when the heads of DC Comics states an intention to “stop the collapse of the comic book industry.” DC eventually insisted it was something of a misquote, but the sentiment created a very real sense that all is not well in the comic book world....

Arrow fans will get to say goodbye to Roy Harper after all, as Colton Haynes returns for the show’s 8th and final season. Haynes debuted on the superhero drama in its first season and quickly became a fan favorite. His on-again/off-again relationship with Oliver’s younger sister, Thea Queen, is a big part of Arrow, especially in the early seasons. After training with Oliver for a year, Roy takes on the nickname “Arsenal” in season 3 and becomes a part of the team....

The new Asus devices announced appear to be the ideal Windows 8 scenario — Ultrabook or Macbook Air like notebook with a full keyboard, serious horse-power and a touchscreen which allows you fully leverage the new Windows 8 interface. There’s also the VivoTab RT, which is running the Windows 8 RT Edition however personally, I’m just not ready to lose my keyboard yet and if I was, I would probably just go with the Microsoft’s Surface and grab the keyboard/case combo just in case....

The first half of the season was full of action and political intrigue, so what can fans expect from Attack On Titan season 3 when it returns? The Attack On Titan manga began in 2009 and was created by Hajime Isayama. The story takes place in a walled city where what remains of humanity takes shelter from giant, humanoid creatures known as Titans. After a long period of peace, a massive Titan suddenly appears outside the city’s outermost wall and breaches it, causing other Titans to flood in and devour the unlucky civilians inside, with the survivors retreating behind the city’s second wall....

While I was on Reddit (using the excellent Apollo for iOS) this weekend, I came across a fun new application that I am glad I now have. It’s called Aurora. Aurora is a simple color picker for macOS and iOS. Why do you need a color picker on your Mac or iPhone? A color picker helps you determine what the color of something is so you can reuse it on another project....

A Avatar 2 set photo shows a sneak peek at a new underwater ship. Upon its release in 2009, James Cameron’s Avatar was a box office smash and technical marvel. It went on to win three Oscars, and Cameron announced his intention to continue the story with a number of sequels. However, due to the amount of visual effects required and the Disney-Fox deal, the release dates for the sequels have been pushed back several times....

In what’s truly a work of mad genius, a fan recreated the most recent Avengers: Endgame trailer using clips from Spongebob Squarepants. Ever since Avengers: Infinity War arrived last spring to rock the world of Marvel fans everywhere, said fans have been waiting impatiently for their chance to find out what happens next. Unfortunately, Marvel Studios has seen fit to go into almost complete lockdown on the topic, revealing almost nothing of consequence about the Phase 3 capper’s overall plot arc....

This skills course covers ⇒ Post-report activities ⇒ Report writing ⇒ And more Start your free trial Introduction – Going Beyond “Talking Techie” Back in 1999, the Mars Climate Orbiter came to a crash-and-burn end. Why? Because there had been a serious miscommunication concerning the units of measurement used in the calculations. One team was producing and calculating in United States standard units, while the other was working on the metric system....

Arrow season 7, episode 14 was titled “Brothers and Sisters,” in reference to the strong family theme that tied many of its subplots together. Despite this, the lion’s share of the episode was devoted to John Diggle and Lyla Michaels’ continued efforts to track down the mysterious terrorist financier known as Dante. Yet even this storyline was a family affair of sorts, as Diggle finally came clean to Oliver Queen and Felicity Smoak (his brother and sister in spirit) regarding the deal he had made with Ricardo Diaz - the crime-boss who had nearly killed them both and destroyed their family in his efforts to take over Star City....

During the new iPad’s unveiling yesterday, Phil Schiller noted many of the device’s upgrades— the new Retina display, quad-core graphics engine, and LTE networking— consume a lot of battery life. Schiller then announced the new iPad would have the same 10-hour battery life over Wi-Fi (or 9 hours over 4G) as the iPad 2. A few things not included in the presentation: The new battery is a 42.5-watt-hour rechargeable lithium-polymer battery with 70 percent more capacity compared to the iPad 2’s 25-watt-hour battery (pictured right)....

Audi today announced in a press release that it plans to integrate Apple’s CarPlay technology to its vehicles possibly as soon as next year. This makes Audi the first automobile company to join Apple’s initial list of committed partners since the Cupertino-company announced the feature’s roll out plans in detail earlier this year in March although Alpine and Pioneer have been added for announcing support for aftermarket solutions. Audi has not yet been added to Apple’s CarPlay microsite which lists each car company with a commitment to support CarPlay, but Audi says that CarPlay integration with its vehicles “is taking place through intensive dialog between the Audi development lab in Silicon Valley and Apple....

After a series of botched updates, which meant HealthKit apps could not launch alongside iOS 8’s release, Apple has finally started allowing apps that integrate with the Health app into the App Store. The first of many is FitPort, which acts as a replacement dashboard for Health information, with all data being synced back into the Health database. On opening the app, the Health permissions screen opens which asks users to individually enable access to health statistics....

During the sixth season of Smallville, DC Comics fans were finally introduced to Green Arrow. While that Oliver Queen and the one we now follow on Arrow are slightly different in their approach, it was clear that a spinoff was needed. The new wave show has lasted longer than some have thought or hoped. After eight seasons, the show is finally ending. With a team that has seen many members come and go, fans threw their trust and sometimes hate at more than a few....

With the highly-publicized launch of World Wrestling Entertainment’s WWE Network, a cable juggernaut and pay-per-view events, it seems that more and more mainstream sports networks, and niche services, are finding their way to streaming and on-demand apps. It’s a growing trend, and it seems that it will only continue to expand as more consumers “cut the cable cord” and turn to consoles, tablets, Smart TVs, and set-top boxes for their entertainment....

Avengers: Endgame is the biggest preseller in Fandango history, breaking a record previously set by Star Wars: The Force Awakens. That’s probably not a surprise to Marvel fans, who have waited over a decade for the movie that wraps up the original Avengers’ story. The film also sold out thousands of screenings at theaters before its opening and even prompted some AMC locations to add round-the-clock showings to accommodate fans....
