One of the best parts about Apple Stores is the ability to try out Apple products out of the box in an environment superior to big box retail stores. While that’s mostly true of almost all Apple products including Apple Watches, there’s one really compelling Apple product that I haven’t seen on demo at any Apple Stores: CarPlay. If you want to try out CarPlay for yourself right now before spending some serious money, the easiest way is to find a car dealer with a CarPlay model available and go for a test drive....

Being woken in the early hours by your iPhone bleeping for some trivial reason is one of life’s more irritating experiences, so I’m a great fan of the Do Not Disturb feature. Set the hours you usually sleep, turn off the phone and you can relax in the knowledge that you won’t be woken by any calls, messages or other assorted audio alerts until a civilised hour. But the scheduling of the Do Not Disturb hours isn’t exactly sophisticated: you simply get to specify the start and end times, and those same times apply 365 days a year unless you change them manually....

And after a failed Initial Public Offering, Zuckerberg and his colleagues are looking for inventive ways to monetize the biggest social network in the world.

After a huge miscommunication, more drama ensues between Pedro and Chantel’s families on The Family Chantel. Chantel and Pedro have become household names when they starred on season 4 of TLC’s hit show, 90 Day Fiancé....

Over the years, Family Guy has given us some hilarious moments and memorable quotes. With 17 seasons under its belt, this pillar of adult animation has been consistently hilarious since its debut in 1999. One character we feel doesn’t get enough love, however, is Chris Griffin. The family’s teenage son is a little gross, very crude, and all kinds of stupid, but at the end of the day, that’s what makes us love him....

Although it began as a rip-off of The Simpsons that focused on not-so-relatable domestic situations, Family Guy has since evolved into a few different shows rolled into one. When it revolves around Peter and Lois, it’s a dark satire about a failing marriage. When it revolves around Peter, Joe, Cleveland, and Quagmire, it’s a buddy comedy. And when it revolves around Brian and Stewie, it can be pretty much anything. It can be a sci-fi story about time travel or dimension-hopping; it can be a road trip story in the mold of the old Bob Hope/Bing Crosby movies, or it can be something else entirely....

The FBI has decided it will not divulge the details of how it successfully hacked into the San Bernardino iPhone to Apple, having found a method at the last-minute just hours before going to court in late March. However, in an attempt to appear helpful and cooperative, the FBI gave Apple its first security tipoff under the Vulnerability Equities Process this month. Reuters reports the FBI informed Apple of a security flaw affecting iOS and Mac software on April 14th, as part of a process that balances the needs of law enforcement to hack devices and the needs of manufacturers to patch found flaws before criminals can use them …...

The artist best known for his work on the Final Fantasy series has taken on a different kind of assignment, as he has drawn an illustration for the cover of the Italian version of Vogue. Yoshitaka Amano is a Japanese artist who has created character and costume concepts for numerous fantasy and science fiction franchises, but he is most famous for the artwork that he has contributed to almost every Final Fantasy game....

In The Expanse season 3, the entire solar system was changed forever when the Protomolecule led James Holden to an alien space station and manipulated him into triggering a system of ring gates that allowed instantaneous travel across the galaxy. As entire new worlds open up before Inners and Belters alike, Holden is living with the Miller-shaped ghost of the Protomolecule, whose primary motivation is to find out which deadly ancient civilization wiped out its makers billions of years previously....

Bethesda announced Fallout 76’s premium subscription service, Fallout 1st, earlier this week, and the reception was predictable - fans really don’t like it, and it’s even cashing in on Obsidian’s Fallout: New Vegas to try to entice fans into picking up what is transparently a cash grab. Fallout 76 is the multiplayer iteration of the franchise that Bethesda launched last year to a slew of issues, both technically and from a design standpoint, and the game has struggled to gain much traction ever since....

The sitcom genre lends itself perfectly to telling stories of families, whether they’re happy, unhappy, sarcastic, or overly positive. Every week, fans get the opportunity to get to know a group of relatives and see them in hilarious situations. Whether a sitcom is on a streaming service like Netflix or regular old cable, there’s never a bad time to watch an episode of our favorite show. But not every family sitcom is a home run, just like there are varying levels of quality in any type of TV show....

Fargo has come to be known for its fantastic writing and its most recent season is no exception. Where some of the best lines have gone to just a handful of characters in seasons past, season three gave almost everyone at least one line of rather memorable dialogue. This past season’s villain, V.M. Varga, almost stole the show single-handedly not just with Fargo may not be the easiest rewatch, but we can definitely reminisce upon our favorite lines....

Fargo is soon set to return to FX for its third season. The anthology show will move its time setting from the seventies to 2010, and this time will follow brothers Ray and Emmit Stussy, both played by Ewan McGregor. With one brother (Emmit) the self-styled Parking Lot King of Minnesota, and the other (Ray) less of a success, the lives of both brothers are turned upside down because of their twisted sibling rivalry - leading to petty theft and even murder....
