A report from the usually-reliable KGI has repeated many of the details from our exclusives on the iPhone 6S, but additionally offered support for an earlier rumor that the front camera will be upgraded to 5MP. Surprisingly, it also suggests that the rear camera lens may not be sapphire, as it has apparently failed drop tests. Although sapphire is much more scratch-resistant than Gorilla Glass, it is more brittle, and thus at greater risk of shattering when dropped....
Even 150 years later, slavery remains America’s greatest shame. Before The Civil War, wealthy southern aristocrats owned human beings as property. The practice remains so controversial, there are still people who insist the war wasn’t fought over slavery directly, but over the more abstract notion of “states’ rights,” using impressive mental gymnastics to downplay the role of slavery in the South, thus glossing over the treatment of innocent black people who were forced to live their whole lives in bondage....

Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has offered his assurances that Josh Brolin playing two comic book movie roles is not a problem for him. The news that Josh Brolin is playing Cable in the upcoming Deadpool 2 came as a surprise to most, not least of all because Brolin is already portraying Thanos in the Marcel Cinematic Universe films (including, next year’s Avengers: Infinity War). For those not in the know: the X-Men movie franchise is owned by 20th Century Fox, so the characters from that series - including both Deadpool and Cable - cannot currently appear in the MCU movies....

Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige explains why the title of Avengers: Endgame was considered a spoiler. The fourth Avengers movie was initially titled Infinity War: Part Two when it was first announced in 2014. However, years before 2018’s Infinity War released, Marvel changed the movie’s title and kept the new name a secret from the public. The reason for Endgame’s secrecy was explained away by saying it would give away too much of Infinity War’s plot....
While we’ve heard tales of gloom and despair from other Apple suppliers, leading analysts and media alike to suggest that the iPhone market might be contracting for the first time ever, it’s rather a different story with key Apple chipmaker TSMC. Focus Taiwan reports that its 2015 earnings were the highest in its 29-year history. Profits and earnings per share were also record-breaking … The company posted NT$306.57 billion (US$9.15 billion) in net profit for 2015, a 16....
Although there are a few unofficial apps in the App Store that allow you to access content from the Khan Academy, the online education portal just launched an official iPad app. Available free in the App Store now, the app provides access to the organization’s 2,700-and up educational videos. The videos cover a range of subjects from K-12 math and science to history and finance. The biggest difference between the new official app and those from third-party devs is that you can now log in to your Khan Academy account; get credit for watching videos, and track goals and achievements from within the app....

The international software security group Kaspersky Lab described in its statement that “Ransomware is a type of malware that, upon infecting a device, blocks access to it or to some or all of the information stored on it....
KGI’s Ming-Chi Kuo, who has a good track record on what if not when, says that Apple’s new 4-inch iPhone will “resemble an upgraded iPhone 5s,” but will get some new internals. Externally, he suggests the main visible difference will be similar curved-edge glass to the iPhone 6/6s. Beneath the hood, he says the phone – expected to be dubbed the iPhone 6c – will get an A9 processor and NFC chip to support Apple Pay....
The new service’s website – me.ga (a pretty clever one, I guess) is already up. If you hover the mouse cursor over the logo, you’ll find out that it will “change the world” starting January 20. What’s different from Megaupload, though, and what makes Kim Dotcom so sure that this one won’t be closed by authorities, too? First of all, the website says that data will be encrypted and decrypted in the browser, and the user holds the decryption keys....

Abrams, fans were ecstatic to see her back in action, only to realize that she’s barely in the movie. To say that The Rise of Skywalker had its work cut out for him would be an understatement....
