At this year’s WWDC, Apple devoted a lot of onstage attention to a revamp of the Notes app in both iOS 9 and OS X El Capitan. One of my favorite additions is inline web link previews. Just paste a URL, and Notes will turn the link into a preview bubble with a thumbnail for the page, as well as a title and description. This got me thinking about the possibility of applying the same functionality to other apps....

Using the New Outlook Mail Is it worth it? For all the new functionality offered in the revamped service, there is still some kinks to work out. Search is one obvious area that needs more refinement. If you use Microsoft’s Outlook Web Mail service; offered as part of the company’s enterprise mail server, Exchange, you might notice how similar both OWA and Outlook Mail are. Well, that’s because both are based on the same platform, Office 365....

In the realtor’s heaven that is beachy Monterey, California, appearances matter. If someone is late to pick up their kid from school, it’s a big little deal. Big Little Lies centers around the goings-on of ritzy public school Otter Bay Elementary, where lines are drawn in the sand so much, the sandbox looks more like train tracks. Stay-at-home moms vs. career moms; households that earn over $150K/year vs. under. Admittedly, this suburban pettiness is much easier to take with a view of the ocean....

A flaw in Wi-Fi chips made by Cypress Semiconductor and Broadcom left “billions of devices” open to an eavesdropping vulnerability, ArsTechnica reports today.

A lot of work goes into creating a television show. And, unfortunately, a lot of that work tends to go unnoticed. The small details that people put into the costumes, the more subtle elements of character development, and the sets themselves often go unnoticed and that is not okay. Those tiny details are what makes a show feel realistic, makes a set looks lived in, and provides an element of realism to the show....

There’s something about TV shows from the 1990s that makes them incredibly comforting. It might be the awkward hair and baggy clothing, the familiarity of having seen these episodes multiple times, or the sometimes cheesy dialogue. There are many shows that we think of as being the best of the ’90s, from teen dramas like Dawson’s Creek to popular sitcoms like Friends and Seinfeld. There’s another beloved series from this time period that fans can’t stop watching today and that’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer....

Joss Whedon intended to introduce Captain Marvel years ago, in Avengers: Age of Ultron - but Kevin Feige had other ideas. Starring Brie Larson as the titular hero, Captain Marvel is the MCU’s first female-led solo superhero film. So far, it looks set to be another blockbuster hit; IMAX presales are tracking ahead of Wonder Woman or Thor: Ragnarok. Fans really began asking for a female superhero movie back in 2012, in the aftermath of The Avengers....

Supporting character Cat Grant will return to Supergirl for the show’s season 2 finale. In most ways that matter, the series’ transition from CBS to the CW in its second season was practically seamless, with the effects budget hardly being affected and the writing coming from the same creative team, for the most part. In fact, most fans of the superhero series would agree that the transition was for the best since it’s allowed for more crossover opportunities between Supergirl and the other Greg Berlanti-produced DC live-action TV shows, like The Flash, Arrow, and Legends of Tomorrow....

What Is It? Just like others in the field, such as Sonic, the game is all about getting from point A to point B and jumping over obstacles along the way. In Chameleon Run, the twist so-to-speak is you’ll need to switch your color sometimes. When you jump, you need to match the color of your destination. That quirk adds a huge level of difficulty.

When it comes to the show Big Brother, you’ll oftentimes find male winners at the end of the game. It wasn’t until Big Brother 18 that a woman beat out a man in the finals.

Today, we’ll be going over the top ten female players of Big Brother....

Big Brother, which just wrapped up its 21st season, sees cunning and manipulative players from across the U.S. come together in a massive house to compete against one another for a half-million dollars. The houseguests are completely isolated from the outside world, only able to communicate with one another. This can understandably drive some players stir-crazy, while others get seriously paranoid. But some people thrive in the game, and know how to align with the right people and quietly pull strings to eventually emerge victorious....
