There are early signs that Apple’s market share of the U.S. smartphone market may increase as we move through the ‘Late Majority’ phase and into ‘Laggards’, suggests Asymco’s Horace Dediu. For those who weren’t paying attention in economics classes in school, new products tend to experience an S-curve pattern to their growth. In the tech sector, Innovators are pretty much synonymous with techies. If those percentages appear rather random, it’s because they are derived from the shape of the curve – the typical points at which it gets steeper or shallower....

Two years after the conclusion of Marvel’s Secret Empire storyline, Captain America is still haunted by the events of the Secret Empire storyline. Terrorist group Hydra took over America under the leadership of Steve Rogers, and it took a resistance force of superheroes to defeat him, led by Sam Wilson, who had the Captain America title at the time, and Bucky Barnes, who had previously held it. Unfortunately for the duo, previews for the upcoming Falcon and Winter Soldier #3 suggest that the next leader of Hydra will be a fake Captain America, and could be the very same fascist version of Rogers that they previously defeated....

Given that Netflix’s BONDiNG combines elements of psychology with elements of BDSM, a Myers-Briggs® categorization of all of its characters might have even been an assignment in one of Tiff’s psychology classes. As a grad school student of psychology who’s secretly a dominatrix, she’s had time to analyze the reasons she might pursue a career in BDSM. What she doesn’t have, is an assistant/bodyguard for when things get out of hand, which is where her best friend Pete comes in....

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/?v=hGdwUiTRn-I] Game maker Rovio today announced a milestone that is incredible no matter how you look at it: Their Angry Birds franchise (which consists of the games Angry Birds, Angry Birds Seasons and Angry Birds Rio) has hit the half a billion downloads mark. This makes Angry Birds the best-selling mobile game in the world and one of the most downloaded titles in the history of gaming. But an even bigger story is the Angry Birds merchandise....

While some say that the ’80s TV drama thirtysomething was simply about yuppies who complained all the time, the show offers up an intelligent look at friends navigating a crucial time in their lives. From Hope and Michael starting a family to Ellyn doing better in her professional than her personal life, from Melissa wondering if she would ever find happiness to Gary’s refusal to grow up, these characters stay in the minds and hearts of anyone who has watched the series....

If you’re not familiar with Google Cardboard, it’s one of the most affordable and portable VR headsets to date. It’s a very simple creation in terms of design and functionality, but provides a solid look into the future of technology without breaking the bank. Why? Because it’s made almost entirely of cardboard. Google unveiled Cardboard at I/O 2014, but unfortunately, it was designed with Android devices in mind. The official Cardboard app is nowhere to be found on the App Store, but that doesn’t mean all hope is lost....

MarsEdit 4 initially launched in public beta back in June, and today the Mac blog publishing app is officially available on the Mac App Store. The latest version of MarsEdit for macOS touts a refreshed look, numerous improvements to WordPress publishing, a Safari app extension, and plenty more.

Marvel’s Cloak and Dagger TV show has been canceled by Freeform after 2 seasons. Launching in 2018, Cloak and Dagger was part of Marvel TV’s attempt to expand their reach across multiple networks and platforms. The series was the first Marvel property to land on ABC’s sister network Freeform, and starred Olivia Holt as Tandy Bowen a.k.a. Dagger and Aubrey Joseph as Tyrone Johnson a.k.a. Cloak.

For over twenty-five years, the world of trading card games has been unequivocally dominated by the five-mana symbols of Magic the Gathering. The brainchild of Richard Garfield, the game has largely remained unchanged since it first debuted. The game primarily uses five different card types: land cards which can be used to power up other spells, creature cards used to attack and defend from opponents, enchantment cards to enact new, lasting rules on the game, instant spells to cause new, short-term effects and abilities at any point in the game, and sorceries which has similar outcomes to instants but can only be used at certain phases of the caster’s own turn....

Mark Hamill still believes Star Wars franchise fatigue is a possibility, especially after Solo: A Star Wars Story underperformed at the box office. When George Lucas was in charge of the famed space opera, there were six feature films released over the course of 28 years (1977 - 2005), with a 16-year gap between the end of the original trilogy and the start of the prequels. When Disney acquired Lucasfilm back in 2012, they made plans to increase that output exponentially....

Marvel has confirmed the X-Men’s teleporter Magik is pansexual - in the strangest possible way. The last decade has seen the young mutant called Magik become a major player in the X-Men comics. Possessed with the power to open teleportational “stepping discs” that instantly transport her from one place to another, Magik was raised in a Hellish dimension and has struggled to acclimatize to normal life. Magik has never shown much interest in sex and relationships....

Marvel’s new podcast series has found its Mr. Fantastic in Star Trek: Discovery’s Ethan Peck. The actor is the grandson of Hollywood icon Gregory Peck.

Revealed to be the brother of Discovery’s lead character, Michael Burnham, the character recurred throughout the sophomore outing....

Marvel’s upcoming Disney+ Loki show may set up Kang the Conqueror as the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s next big bad. The show, starring Tom Hiddleston, will see the God of Mischief embody his nefarious persona from 2012’s The Avengers. A more reformed version of the character was killed by Thanos at the beginning of Avengers: Infinity War. However, Avengers: Endgame revived 2012 Loki when he escaped with the Tesseract during the Avengers’ “time heist....

There are some exciting Marvel movies lined up for 2020 but, strangely, they aren’t coming from the main MCU, with Morbius and New Mutants creating more buzz. Under the direction of Kevin Feige, Marvel Studios has spent a decade dominating the big screen, and Disney’s purchase of the company solidified the Marvel Cinematic Universe as a box office juggernaut that could do no wrong. With a string of critical and commercial hits under its belt (marred by the very occasional dud), Marvel told an ambitious multi-film story that culminated in Avengers: Endgame and encompassed a fun epilogue in Spider-Man: Far From Home....

macOS Sierra has been used by developers and public beta testers all summer, and today the Mac software update is available in GM form as Apple prepares it for primetime. The latest release is available now through the Mac App Store. macOS Sierra’s headlining feature is Siri on the Mac with other features like Auto-Unlock which lets Apple Watch users skip the password login screen. Apple Pay is also coming to Safari with macOS Sierra, although we haven’t seen the feature live on the web yet....

After looking at how to quickly move timeline-based projects over to a Live Loops setup and some nice price drops previously, today we are talking about mapping Remix FX to Launchpad. Apple’s GarageBand multi-FX unit gone pro made its debut inside Logic Pro for the first time as part of the flagship app’s major overhaul last year. A particularly useful and creative tool, especially in concert with Live Loops, Remix FX houses a number of multi-touch ready FX units from filters and repeaters to down samplers and interesting tape stops to add some serious flavor to your compositions....
