It may be hard for some to remember a time when a whole year passed without an incredible superhero film hitting theaters, but this was the world that Jackman entered. He now leaves the role, and the superhero film genre, in an inarguably better place. This is due in no small part to his earnest, vulnerable, and heartfelt performances as one of the fiction’s most hard-as-nails heroes....

The series featured guest roles from actors like Bryan Cranston, Joe Manganiello, Kyle MacLachlan, and John Lithgow, and musical artists like Britney Spears, Katy Perry, Nicole Scherzinger, and Jennifer Lopez....
Downloading your complete Apple Music collection to your iPhone or iPad is surprisingly difficult, even on the redesigned and simpler iOS 10 update. There’s no obvious ‘download all’ button and iCloud Music Library moves all syncing to iCloud, not iTunes, so you can’t just shuttle your library from your Mac to your iPhone or iPad. If you like to keep a local music library, this is a problem you will likely face when you upgrade to a new iPhone even if you restore from an encrypted backup using iTunes, which is considered the most efficient method....

July and August mark summer in Japan, and we get to see a lot of bugs in Japan summer. As the game is mostly centered around Japan, the arrival of several bugs in July is not surprising at all. This arrival of bugs and fishes is only exclusive to the islands in the Northern Hemisphere, though....
We can invoke Google Assistant by saying Hey Google or OK Google. However, this may sound a bit repetitive after some time. Is it possible to have any alternative words that we can use instead of speaking the OK Google command.? Unfortunately, Google doesn’t allow any such feature to replace its signature way to invoke its virtual assistant. Thanks to the scope of customization we get on Android, we can change the OK Google or Hey Google command to any other phrase of our choice....
At WWDC 2019, Apple announced that HomeKit would soon be supported by routers from Eero, Linksys, and Charter Spectrum. Thus far, none of those companies have actually rolled out HomeKit support to their routers, but new evidence today suggests Eero support could be coming soon. Eero today released an update for its Eero and Eero Pro routers, bringing them to version 3.18. The release notes for the update are relatively unexciting, highlighting “improvements to client data accuracy” and “system stability improvements....

In December 2017, The Walt Disney Company announced plans to acquire 21st Century Fox for around $52 billion in stock. This deal would give them control over some of the most iconic and historical assets in the modern American entertainment industry, including 20th Century Fox’s film and TV studios, the Fox Networks Group and its assorted cable networks such as FX, and stakes in National Geographic and Hulu....
I like to think I’m pretty handy with a camera, but am definitely an amateur when it comes to video. Unlike some of the talented videographers we have here on the team, my idea of video editing is to throw a bunch of clips into iMovie, add cross-dissolves between them, drop in a music track and call it good. But even that level of video editing can be surprisingly time-consuming, which creates something of a dilemma....
