Eddie Murphy says Tyler Perry is this generation’s real-life Dolemite. Murphy is currently starring in Netflix’s Dolemite Is My Name. Directed by Craig Brewer, and written by the duo of Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski, the biographical comedy tells the story of filmmaker Rudy Ray Moore. Moore’s path to wider fame started when he heard lewd stories about someone called “Dolemite”, told by a local man named Rico. Moore began to record these stories, later portraying the role of Dolemite in his club act and in recordings....

Since 2003, Ellen DeGeneres has been gracing us with her presence through her own talk show, The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Ellen is so classically good on screen that the show has been renewed until 2022. Throughout the years, we’ve seen an abundance of good deeds, famed celebrities, and some epic dance moves, but in 2017, something else took over: the “Me On Ellen” meme. Always the entertainer, Ellen is bubbly and authentically herself....

The Emotet malware returns in November 2021 after law enforcement disrupted its infrastructure in a well-coordinated operation involving several countries and agencies in January 2021. According to the CheckPoint advisory, trickbot continues on the top, affecting 5% of organizations worldwide. Still, the returned Emotet is placed in 7th position impacting mainly Education/Research, followed by Communications and Government/Military sectors. The preoccupation is high because this threat — firstly seen in 2004 — has impacted many organizations over the years, and now it is back with new power....

Villain Thanos (Josh Brolin) repeated the same funny mistake Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) committed in The Avengers in 2012 seven years later in Avengers: Endgame. Joss Whedon’s first MCU film brought together all the founding heroes for an epic showdown against Loki (Tom Hiddlestone) and his Chitauri army. Much of its fun stemmed from seeing the then-budding universe finally take shape after five solo movies. It was both a box office and critical hit, and most importantly, it solidified Kevin Feige’s plans of adapting the comics’ interconnected storytelling format to the big screen....

Enemy Of The State may not be officially labeled a sequel to The Conversation, but there’s plenty linking them together. Francis Ford Coppola had an incredible run of films in the 1970s, including The Godfather, its sequel and Apocalypse Now. In 1974 he made a smaller movie called The Conversation which starred Gene Hackman as surveillance expert Harry Caul. Caul is hired to record the conversation of a couple for a mysterious client, and Harry soon begins to worry his recording could get them killed....

Popular creative and custom goods marketplace Etsy is jumping on the augmented reality train and bringing the ability to visualize paintings, photography, and prints in your own space with iPhone or iPad before you make a purchase. Coming several years after many companies like Target, IKEA, and Wayfair added AR to their iOS apps to help customers get a better feel for products in their homes before making a purchase, Etsy has launched its AR feature for iPhone and iPad too (via The Verge)....

Porsche has traditionally not emphasized creature comforts in its track-focused cars, even stripping out air-conditioning to keep the weight down. But the latest 911 GT3 – a model primarily aimed at track drivers who also want to drive the car to and from the circuit – now comes with CarPlay as standard … The 2018 GT3 is as focused a driver’s car as ever, the 4-liter flat-six engine producing 500hp, hitting 0-60mph in 3....

Like most of its animated comedy cousins, South Park has a huge cast of supporting characters. But since it’s named after a town and focused on its residents, rather than a family or a workplace, those supporting characters get more storylines and development than they do in shows like The Simpsons and Family Guy. In fact, in some cases, South Park’s supporting characters have become so popular that they get entire seasons built around them and the main four boys have been forced to take a backseat....

Evo 2019’s Solid Snake Tekken cameo video has been so poorly received the organization has issued an apology to fans, stating that the idea for the joke was theirs alone and that no other party - especially not Bandai Namco - was consulted on it. Evo 2019 was a success in terms of viewership and memorable moments, with an emotional Grand Finals between GO1 and SonicFox in Dragon Ball FighterZ coloring a weekend that was full of surprises and incredible fighting game play....

The problem first surfaced in June this year, and continues to vex users today, if the 1,067 posts across 72-pages describing the situation are to be believed. Apple introduced its EFI Firmware 1.7 update in June. The company’s tech note states this: “Addresses an issue reported by a small number of customers using drives based on the SATA 3Gbps specification with the June 2009 MacBook Pro. While this update allows drives to use transfer rates greater than 1....

Endless OS is a distribution oriented mainly to novice users who want to pay the least attention to the installation and configuration process and instead look for something that is ready with all the basic applications they will need. This version in addition to bringing the usual improvements in stability and performance includes new features designed especially for those who do not always have access to an Internet connection. For example, the system can be configured to not download app updates or any type of content when a data limit connection is used....

Poor Edith. For six seasons on Downton Abbey things never seemed to go her way. Ever the middle child, not as sought after as Mary, nor as adventurous as Sybil, her life for the first three seasons is a series of failures. She was pitiable, but, as she’s often her own worst enemy (and Mary’s too) she was hard to root for. But it’s not much of a story if she never grows or learns, and Edith did both in spades....

Starting back with Windows 10 Build 16232, CFA monitors changes that apps try to make to files in protected folders. This feature also lets you manually add additional folders that you want to be protected. It also the apps you want to allow access to certain folders. According to Microsoft exec Dona Sarkar: “Controlled folder access monitors the changes that apps make to files in certain protected folders. If an app attempts to make a change to these files, and the app is blacklisted by the feature, you’ll get a notification about the attempt....

As much as I have been investing in my HomeKit setup over the past few years, HomeKit security cameras are something I hadn’t been able to pull the trigger on. My hesitation is that I didn’t want to be tied to paying monthly fees for each camera, nor did I want a solution that required a cloud service that wasn’t end-to-end encrypted. For my HomeKit cameras, I ended up using the eufyCam 2 thanks to it the option of local recording to a base station, no monthly fees, HomeKit integration, battery-powered and the possibility of using HomeKit Secure Video....

Several reports have indicated WWDC will introduce several new Apple hardware products alongside the headline software announcements like iOS 11 and macOS 10.13. Today, Eurasian regulator filings (which have proved reliable before) suggest that new iPad and MacBook (Pro?) models are on the way, as has been reported before. The filings also suggest that a revision to the wireless Apple Magic Keyboard is imminent …. As spotted by Consomac, the filings were published at the Eurasian Economic Commission registry overnight....

After much controversy surrounding the surprise release of a public iOS 7 jailbreak from well-known jailbreakers the evad3rs, the team has published another open letter to clear up some questions and concerns related to the release. The biggest questions many are still asking are related to why and how the group made a deal with Taig, an app store of sorts that was installed on jailbroken devices in China, while not including an updated Cydia store in the release....

The duo of composer Richard Rodgers and lyricist Oscar Hammerstein II are titans of musical theatre. During a collaborative partnership that spanned close to two decades, they produced nine Broadway musicals (six of which were adapted to film), a film (State Fair in 1945), and a made-for-television musical version of Cinderella. It’s hard to properly convey the impact they had on ushering in Hollywood’s musical “Golden Age.” If it weren’t for Rodgers and Hammerstein, we wouldn’t have classic show tunes like “Oh What A Beautiful Mornin,” “Getting to Know You,” or “Oklahoma....
