There will never be another sitcom that has quite the same impact as Friends. The sitcom that followed the lives of New York’s funniest and most dysfunctional group of people ran for ten years, snatched a Golden Globe, and to this day is in the top 50 on IMDb’s list of top television shows. It’s hard to decide exactly what made the show so beloved by audiences, but truth is, once it enters your heart, it stays there....
Friends is still one of the most popular shows to ever grace the small screen. The series had a small cast of loveable and relatable characters that kept fans not only coming back for more, but religiously watching reruns over and over again. The characters and their relationships were certainly the most memorable part of Friends. From Ross and Rachel’s unforgettable will-they-won’t-they dynamic, to Monica and Chandler’s somewhat surprising love story… not forgetting those less-than-significant flings in between....
Frozen 2 has officially become the third-highest grossing film of 2019 at the worldwide box office, while surpassing the original Frozen domestically. Upon its release in 2013, Frozen was a box office smash that notched a then-record opening for Thanksgiving weekend. It quickly became a cultural phenomenon, and a sequel was soon ordered. This year, Frozen 2 debuted to $130.2 million the weekend before Thanksgiving and scored the biggest global debut for any animated film....

The Battle of Winterfell provided a lot of surprises, but the most shocking moment was how it all ended. After being teased from the very first scene of the show, Game of Thrones has set up the White Walkers and the Night King as the greatest threat to Westeros. After a bloody battle that left several key characters dead, Arya dealt a killing blow, ending the Night King’s attack. The swift death of the Night King was totally unexpected for many fans who had been theorizing about who he was and what he wanted for years....
Sean Bean has been out of the Game of Thrones for years now, but he thinks he knows which of Ned Stark’s children is most likely to make it to the end of the story: tomboy-turned-assassin Arya Stark. The two characters had a close relationship at the start of the series, with Ned indulging his daughter’s desire to learn sword-fighting, and even hiring a tutor for her. However, that relationship came to an abrupt end when Ned was shockingly executed at the end of season 1....
Game of Thrones is nearly halfway through its final season, and its emphasis on romance has become somewhat of a problem. While there have been some amazing moments so far - Jon Snow riding a dragon and Brienne being knighted - the first two episodes of Game of Thrones season 8 have contained lots of exposition and not a lot of action. There have been no major losses, and almost nothing has been seen of the Army of the Dead so far (with the exception of several White Walkers showing up at Winterfell)....
It looks like David Benioff and D. B. Weiss’ HBO hit Game of Thrones is going to be getting a proper send-off when the final season airs and will not be used to launch the much-buzzed about prequel or spin-off series in development. As of now, HBO has recruited Carly Wray (Mad Men, The Leftovers) Max Borenstein (Kong: Skull Island), Jane Goldman (Kingsman: The Golden Circle), Brian Helgeland (Legend) and another unannounced writer to tackle the mutiple different story ideas set in author George R....
A Geekbench benchmark has surfaced that appears to reveal an upcoming MacBook Pro revamp. Note that Geekbench scores can be fabricated relatively easily, so this isn’t confirmation of an imminent revamp — but it’s certainly fuel on the fire. The new MacBookPro15,2 model features an Intel Core i7-8559U Coffee Lake CPU. This CPU runs up to 28W and is yet to ship in any product, so it would represent a modern update to Apple’s MacBook Pro line....

Euron Greyjoy from Game of Thrones is one of the show’s biggest antagonizers, getting under people’s skin with his boastful attitude and cocky persona. Despite his rude manner, Euron was one of the most brilliant naval captains in Westeros, beating almost anyone in the open water. But his actions speak more than his words, earning him a place alongside Cersei Lannister in both the throne room and bedroom. With that, here are the most shameless things he has ever done....
Tyrion Lannister is one of the most popular characters in Game of Thrones. He is an intelligent and funny character who managed to endear himself to the Game of Thrones audience from his very first season. That being said, despite his popularity, he is also known for his dark side and has very little love for his Lannister family. Tyrion murdered his father and his girlfriend, so he is certainly not a hero by any stretch of the imagination....
Game of Thrones appears to be teasing a Northern rebellion and a divided Westeros in the series finale. The penultimate episode of Game of Thrones angered some fans, but it definitely moved things forward - King’s Landing fell, Daenerys went full-blown Mad Queen, and Cersei finally died in the rubble of the Red Keep while trying to escape. With Cersei gone and Dany crazy, it’s clear that the finale is going to be all about the conflict between Jon and Daenerys, and that could well mean a Northern rebellion....
Warning: This article contains SPOILERS for Game of Thrones’ “The Long Night”. In the wake of the Night King’s shocking defeat, it may be a good time to remember that Game Of Thrones has been successful by defying audience expectations. The wildly popular HBO series has become a cultural phenomenon through its continued subversion of normal fantasy storytelling tropes, routinely blurring the lines between the protagonists and antagonists as it’s gone on....

All proceeds from the sale of this expansion pack go directly to the (RED) charity, which sends the money to the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria....
Here’s an excerpt from the Google blog: The net effect for you, the smartphone loving consumer, is two-fold: one, it quashes innovation and startups, since you have to have a well-heeled legal department to survive these patent suits and two, because companies are buying patents for $4.5 billion just so they can sue other companies, it’s upping the cost of technology to you. I added my own emphasis above—that’s $15 for every Android device....
While Frontier is best known for its rural DSL internet service, the company has been expanding its fiber network. Frontier’s 2 Gbps service will be available to approximately 4 million customers in 19 states as part of its launch. This 2 Gbps service is symmetrical; this means you’ll get 2 Gbps speeds both up and down. So, what kind of speed does that give you in real-world terms? Well, you can download Fortnite, which comes in at 10GBs, in about two minutes....
There has long been debate about the future of the Lightning port in the iPhone. Will Apple stick to this, replace it with USB-C, or move straight to a fully wireless iPhone — one without any ports at all? There’s fresh discussion today prompted by a claim that Apple will do none of these things, and instead use a Smart Connector on the iPhone 13… That claim comes from a Twitter account with no track record, so there’s no reason to give it any weight....
Update: Apple asked us to remove the posters. As part of Apple’s campaign to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Mac, it released ‘Apple 30’ themed posters cleverly composed with the names of every Apple employee, corporate and retail alike. While the physical posters are located on Apple’s campus, the company decided to release digital versions on their internal system so current employees could locate their names amid the vast sea of alphabet....
