After virtually discontinuing macOS Server eons ago, Apple has officially pulled the plug on the $20 suite of server features for Mac users. The company broke the bad news for macOS Server fans in a support document today: For many, the bigger surprise is not that macOS Server is going away, but that the standalone app was still being sold. As Apple notes in the support document, several server-inspired features have found their way into recent versions of macOS:...

Apple supplier Luxshare, which is responsible for making AirPods and some parts of iPhones, iPads, and Macs, has been accused by Taiwanese prosecutors of stealing commercial secrets from a local supplier and poaching its workforce to win orders from Apple. The prosecutors have charged 14 people. As reported by Reuters, Taiwan wants to stop what it views as “underhand and illegal activities by Chinese firms to steal know-how and poach away talent in what Taipei’s government views as a threat to the island’s tech prowess....

Apple TV+ is one of the latest streaming services to hit the market - along with The Walt Disney Company’s Disney+, which released the same month - but beyond its content, between the critics and users, the Apple-created service is the most polarizing one out right now. But why is that? Apple TV+ launched in November 2019 with several high profile TV shows led by some of the most talked-about actors, directors, and producers in Hollywood, not to mention a low entry price to entice subscribers....

Marvel Comics editor-in-chief C.B. Cebulski has shared his praises for Warner Bros.’ latest entry in the DCEU franchise, Aquaman. The film currently claims the #3 spot on the DCEU’s worldwide box office chart, coming in right behind 2017’s well-received Wonder Woman. While Aquaman scored the lowest domestic opening for the DCEU franchise, it has still been receiving generally positive reviews. Prior to its release, the superhero movie managed to take in nearly $3 million from early screenings, and it has been dominating the box office ever since....

What DC’s Aquaman movie lacks in refinement, it makes up for with action spectacle and a whole lot of fun personality from Momoa’s Arthur Curry. Warner Bros. and DC Films launched a shared universe of interconnected DC Comics-based movies with Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel in 2013, then vastly expanded the world three years later with Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. However, though Batman V Superman and fellow 2016 release Suicide Squad were financially successful, neither were received well by critics....

The Disney animated musical fantasy film Aladdin was a hit back in 1992, so it’s no surprise that the movie was resurrected by Guy Ritchie and turned into a live action interpretation this year. The movie has, unsurprisingly, beaten all expectations at the box office to become a bona fide Disney hit. The story follows Aladdin, an Arabian street urchin who gets caught up with a princess, an evil Royal Vizier, and a magic lamp that can grant him three wishes....

Marvel Studios is looking for Avengers: Infinity War and the subsequent followup Untitled Avengers to work as a closing for Phase Three of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With 18 films due to be out by the time Infinity War rolls around, there is no shortage of characters at the disposal of directors Joe and Anthony Russo. They’ve already showed an ability to manage a large number of characters in Captain America: Civil War, but Infinity War will be a test on an entirely different level....

Avengers: Infinity War doesn’t just serve as the culmination of ten years of the MCU, it actually fixes Marvel’s broken timeline. The past year has been a rollercoaster for continuity-minded Marvel Cinematic Universe fans, with each new movie seemingly going out of its way to create some form of contradiction. Finally, it looks to be over - even if it’s not the most elegant solution. In the early days of the MCU, the “it’s all connected” mantra seemed to be the defining drive, with Kevin Feige and co....

Electronic Arts announced that their World War II shooter Battlefield V will be built around three key pillars, one of which is a new cooperative mode. Called Combined Arms, this multiplayer cooperative mode will support up to four players online. Each will be a paratrooper, and they’ll attempt to take on dangerous missions together. Battlefield V will mark developer DICE’s return to WWII. They last revisited the devastating world event back in 2009’s Battlefield 1943 which released exclusively on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, so it wasn’t as big of a release as traditional mainline Battlefield installments....

WARNING: This article contains SPOILERS for Detective Comics #974 - Batwoman crossed a line when she killed Clayface… but she may have broken up the Batman Family, too. To casual fans, her actions might seem like an understandable twist: Gotham City’s villains push the envelope on a daily basis (most without Clayface’s shapeshifting abilities). And while Batman’s no-kill policy is one of his best-known, defining characteristics, it isn’t one that Batwoman embraced on the same level....

James Bond has had a long and sordid history in the video game sphere. His Atari 2600 title is fondly remembered, as are the text adventures based on Goldfinger and A View to a Kill, among others. For this list, however, we’re going to rank 007’s video game adventures in the modern age, from 1997’s Goldeneye 007 through to 2012’s 007 Legends, the legendary super-spy’s most recent outing. For expediency’s sake, we’re going to skip over handheld titles like James Bond 007 for Game Boy and handheld ports of other titles....

Foss Patents yesterday said it was inevitable that we’d see Apple countersue Ericsson, and it didn’t take long for that to happen. Each company is now suing the other for patent infringement. Ericsson is seeking to ban the import of iPhones, and Apple wants to ban the import of mobile base stations. The Cupertino company is said to be so afraid of this that it is making an “astounding” U-turn in the way it wants the dispute to be settled …...

Spatial Audio and Lossless support are coming to Apple Music on HomePod and HomePod mini. With HomePod 15 beta 5, Apple has added a new toggle dedicated to Dolby Atmos within the Home app. Although not everyone running the latest beta will be able to find it, as some people never saw the Lossless toggle in previous betas, it shows that Apple is working on launching Dolby Atmos and Lossless support together on HomePod....

Apple’s Back to School campaign was launched last month in the United States, Canada, and a few other Asian countries – and a recent report revealed that the offer would soon be available in Europe. Now the offer is live in several European countries, and it offers a free gift card on the purchase of an eligible Mac or iPad. For those unfamiliar, Back to School is a traditional Apple campaign in which the company offers discounts and even some gifts to students and educators....

The bestselling novel Dear Edward is set to become a TV show on Apple TV+, the company has announced. Connie Britton, Taylor Schilling, Colin O’Brien, and more will star in the show. The drama series is set to star Emmy Award nominee Connie Britton (The White Lotus, Friday Night Lights), reuniting Katims and Britton following their Emmy-winning collaboration on Friday Night Lights, along with Taylor Schilling (Pam and Tommy, Orange Is the New Black) and Colin O’Brien (Mr....

Now that the first trailer for Aquaman has arrived, it’s clear just how much the next DC movie will draw from the comics. That’s a big plus for comic fans who were hoping to see Jason Momoa in the classic Aquaman suit, or fans of Geoff Johns’ origin story told in the New 52. But the extra time and details revealed have raised one question, with implications far beyond one Aquaman movie....

WARNING! The following article gas SPOILERS for the Arrow Episode “Life Sentence” - “Life Sentence”, the final episode of Arrow’s sixth season, ended with Green Arrow scoring a Pyrrhic victory over crime boss Ricardo Diaz. The Emerald Archer was able to save his city, exposed the government officials on Diaz’s payroll and protected the rest of Star City’s vigilantes from prosecution under the city’s new anti-vigilante law. Unfortunately, accomplishing all this required that Green Arrow expose his secret identity as former mayor Oliver Queen and turn himself in to the FBI to face various federal charges, resulting in the titular “Life Sentence....
