The company had earlier said that it did not believe Uber China’s revenue was high enough to require this....

It’s the wackiest characters who get the most love in sitcoms, and Sheldon Cooper is unanimously accepted as the star of The Big Bang Theory. Without his crazy personality, the show wouldn’t have had the nerdy charm it was famous for and we should be thankful Sheldon was weird as we saw him to be. He’s easily the most parodied character from the show, with hundreds of memes dedicated to Sheldon’s mannerisms....

On Showtime, Billions season 4 has premiered and Bobby Axelrod is already making horrible decisions. In Billions, Damian Lewis portrays the founder of Axe Capital, an alpha male with a unique circle of faux friends. Based on the mogul’s heightened sense of importance and unchecked ambition, Axe will likely spiral out of control in Billions season 4. In Billions season 3, a non-binary prodigy named Taylor Mason (Asia Kate Dillon) left Axe Capital to form her own company, Taylor Mason Capital....

The Birds of Prey movie is taking everything that worked with Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad, and using it to bring an entire batch of women warriors into the DC movie universe. But make no mistake: this new adventure is one of a kind, completely unconnected to Suicide Squad or Joker. And the producers see it as a win for more than just this one film. Speaking with producers Sue Kroll and Bryan Unkeless during our visit to the Birds of Prey set, we found out how long overdue this kind of blockbuster really is, and what potential the studio sees in a female-led, girl gang movie....

Black Lightning season 3 is happening, but when will it release and what can fans expect from the story? The action of Black Lighting season 2 has largely centered around the fate of the Green Light Babies - children who’ve developed superpowers after being exposed to a street-drug called Green Light. All but one of these children and a team of metahuman assassins wound up under the control of crime-boss Tobias Whale....

The Black Widow movie has the power to give Natasha Romanoff a better finale than the one she received in Avengers: Endgame. Though it appeared her time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe had reached its end, Scarlett Johansson will take up the Black Widow name once again in the character’s first solo movie. Revolving around the checkered past of Black Widow, there is potential for the upcoming film to give Nat the ending Avengers: Endgame simply couldn’t provide considering that it was an ensemble film....

Marvel Studios premieres another look at their upcoming Black Widow movie during Super Bowl LIV.

It is no secret that Google and other search engines rely on showing ads to their users. When a user performs a query in the search engine, the search engine collects the user’s private information such as specific location, device type, browser history, etc....

Breaking Bad season 1 was much shorter than the other four seasons within the AMC series. The debut season consisted of just seven episodes that aired in the first few months of 2008. Vince Gilligan’s series was initially planned to have 9 episodes in season 1; however, the 2007 Writers’ Strike forced the season to be cut short - a fortuitous turn of events, according to Gilligan. Breaking Bad’s first season focused on Walter White’s (Bryan Cranston) transition from depressed high school science teacher to underground meth cook....

California is now presenting a new bill that, if passed into law, would stop Apple from selling iPhones on its home turf, via ZDNet. The bill requires smartphone manufacturers to sell devices that have backdoors to allow them to be decrypted. Naturally, this affects iPhones which use high-strength security methods and make it practically impossible for anyone including Apple to gain access without the passcode. If this proposed bill sounds familiar, there’s a reason for that....

Google is getting pretty heavily into voice-driven AI with its Pixel phones. It first announced Google Duplex – a controversial feature which allows the phone to automatically make calls for things like restaurant bookings. But it also launched a new call-screening feature. Originally exclusive to the Pixel 3 in October, it was last month extended to the Pixel 2/XL, and it got a very welcome upgrade just a few days ago....

Last week, Apple was at the heart of a conversation during the Republican presidential debate over encryption and national security. Candidates such as Jeb Bush explained that, even if companies like Apple aren’t willing to give up user data, the government has “got to keep asking because this is a hugely important issue.” Last night, NBC held a Democratic presidential debate out of South Carolina, and once again, encryption and technology’s role in national security were hot button issues during the debate....

Filming has wrapped on the Cats movie. Big screen musicals have arguably enjoyed a resurgence in popularity over the last five years, thanks to hits like La La Land, The Greatest Showman, and Mary Poppins Returns. Broadway musical adaptations haven’t gone out of style recently either, with Into the Woods and Les Misérables having done big business at the box office in 2014 and 2012, respectively. As such, Universal and Working Title are joining forces to bring Andrew Lloyd Webber’s 1981 smash hit show Cats to the big screen, with Les Mis director Tom Hooper calling the shots....

Recent analyst and market intelligence company reports on Apple’s performance in China have been pessimistic to say the least. The consistent narrative was that Apple was struggling to compete with local brands, and that its flagship iPhone X model was too expensive for Chinese consumers … In fact, Q2 was a huge quarter for the company in Greater China, the company reporting more 21% growth in the region. And as for the iPhone X being too spendy, Tim Cook said not, reporting that the flagship iPhone was the most popular smartphone in the country across the quarter....
