Update: Bad news. Apple has stopped signing the 6.1.3/4 so you won’t easily be able to downgrade. [tweet https://twitter.com/iH8sn0w/status/381213582605975552] [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTpXVv-DaBQ] Apple launched iOS 7 yesterday, and while adoption rates are soaring, some users are less-than-thrilled with the new look and feel of their phones. Typically Apple doesn’t allow iOS to be downgraded to previous versions, but at the time of this writing disgruntled users are still able to go back to the leather and green felt they know and love....
It is generally true that Bose soundbars are well-built, with a premium appearance and feel. The setup is easily upgradeable. In the future, you will be able to expand your setup by purchasing a subwoofer or satellite for the Bose Smart Soundbar 900 and 800. In its audio products, Bose takes pride in producing a well-balanced and neutral sound right out of the box. They still have a good sound suited for most audio content, and most of their setups can be upgraded later on, even though the soundbars are a little lacking in terms of variety compared to brands that offer more variety....
The findings were made based on the observation that as people throughout the world become more digitally connected online than ever before, thanks in part to the global pandemic, so too is the potential for institutions, infrastructures, and personal lives to be more exposed to cybercriminals. “Big institutions remain vulnerable, despite spending millions on security, and cybercriminals have plenty of opportunities to exploit weak technologies,” the report said. Experian identified five top data breach trends to expect in 2022: 1....
The feelings we have toward brands can compare to how we feel about other people. Obsession. Admiration. Loyalty. Whatever it is we feel, it’s even more important in a world where consumer tastes are constantly evolving. Why do we put up with impossibly long lines for that new Bali-inspired, coconut-based, vegan hand cream? What makes us willing to travel ridiculous distances for our favorite double cheeseburger? And why on earth do we lose hours of precious sleep for that gizmo gadget that goes on sale at midnight?...
Director David Ayer is best known for gritty cop dramas like Training Day (which he wrote) and End of Watch (which he wrote and directed). Yet recently his filmography has begun to diversify a little bit. In 2014, Ayer released both the action mystery film Sabotage with Arnold Schwarzenegger and war film Fury starring Brad Pitt. And just last year his exploration went even further into the science fiction fantasy genre with DC Comics superhero film Suicide Squad....
Josh Brolin is reminding fans that the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes still have to face Thanos in Avengers: Endgame.

Instagram, TikTok and Twitter have all been busy this week with the latest viral hashtag challenge, #broomchallenge. Not only was this said to have been started by NASA, but it’s not the first time this hoax has taken over the internet. It also probably won’t be the last. Social media loves a good dare, although not all of them are always positive with the ‘Tide Pod Challenge’ a prime example. Either way, once a challenge is put out, it does not typically take too long before the internet responds by accepting and while this latest one appeared simple on paper, many have found out in the last twenty-four hours that it is not as simple to accomplish....

Not many people involved with Breaking Bad’s development were onboard with Aaron Paul being cast for the role of Jesse Pinkman. AMC had issues with Bryan Cranston in the role of Walter White as well, because the executives associated the actor with comedy, rather than drama. In Aaron Paul’s case, however, the studio had a different vision in mind for the young meth cook: Paul was simply too good-looking. Aside from Walt, Jesse was the most essential character on Breaking Bad....

You’re sure you’ve closed Photoshop, yet Window still refuses to let you touch the file....
Now when it is known what exactly the Animal is going to be, we create another class which inherits the base class.

The key difference here is that the Dog class cannot change the definition of the Description method of the Animal class. It has to define its own C# abstract method called Dog-Description....
