Ever since Apple released the iPhone 5 in 2012, all of their iOS devices (and many of their accessories) have used the Lightning port for charging. Apple so generously gives you a free Lightning cable with each of these products, but these are short, break easily, and only come in white. Fortunately, there are a bunch of third-party cables to pick up the slack, like the Thermal Color Changing Lightning Cable that's currently on sale.

Ron Howard had his work cut out for him stepping into Solo: A Star War Story – not only in working with a beloved franchise but picking up for other directors and the vision created 40 years ago by George Lucas.

On May 4, Heathrow Airport in London debuted some new routes to select far-off destinations.

It's not every day you get to sit next to a future King.

David Duchovny has had the honour, though. And not only did he once sit next to Prince Charles, but he even had the dubious honour of explaining to him what a "booty call" was.

Still, it could have been worse. At least he didn't have to describe the meaning of a Prince Albert. Read more...

In the clip above from The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Poppy Delevingne appears to casually crack open three bottles of beer using only her hand and — *shudder* — her eye socket.

You've probably heard recently that sitting is the new smoking. And since so many of us work in an office sitting at a desk all day, this news is pretty scary. One great solution is to invest in a standing desk. But what's even better than a standing desk? A biking desk.

Nearly a year after Beyond Good & Evil 2 was given a full trailer at E3, and 10 years after the game was first basically revealed in an untitled teaser trailer, we finally have some updates on how the gameplay looks and works.

It's rare in Hollywood to find authentic, layered stories about multifaceted women, but the good news is, it's getting less rare. A notable case on the subject is the filmography of screenwriter Diablo Cody, the scribe behind 2007's Juno (her first film, for which she won an Oscar), 2011's Young Adult, and — opening this weekend — the remarkable Tully.

TGIF. The weekend is here so celebrate with some deals on Bluetooth speakers, Bose headphones, and more. 

As someone that moves from macOS to Windows frequently and takes screenshots all the time (I admit, it's a little specific, but I can't be the only one), one of the most annoying things about Windows is the lack of an integrated, powerful screenshot tool. 

On a painfully hot day in May 2015, I donned a long black gown and stood for hours in a field of uncomfortably wet grass while sun burned my cheeks and humidity wreaked havoc with my hair. Was I prepared for life? Definitely not. But there I was anyway, graduating college.

Anyone who saw the pictures from Colin the Caterpillar's 25th birthday will know that he's something of a reckless drunk.

"May the 4th be with you". 

It's May 4th and that can only mean one thing....Star Wars Day. 

The first known use of "May the 4th" goes back to 1979, when Margaret Tatcher's team ordered a half-page newspaper advertisement to celebrate her becoming the first woman prime minister in the UK. The message read "May the Fourth Be With You, Maggie. Congratulations". 

Star Wars fans were quick to spot the resemblance to the popular quote "may the force be with you". And the rest is history. Читать дальше...

There's something about astrology that's always been, well, kinda queer.

To be fair there's still a lot we don't know about medieval England. Maybe they had a Superdry.

What does "after work" mean anymore? 

Not much. These days, employers can Slack you late Friday night, send you an email Saturday morning, and text you with an "emergency" on Sunday night.

In America's workaholic culture, instant messaging is the 3 a.m. tequila shot nobody needs. But here we are, slumped over, bleary eyed, and paranoid every time our phones vibrate.

The isolated coastal region of Patillas, Puerto Rico, lost power when Hurricane Maria slammed into the U.S. territory back in September. It took several months to restore electricity to most of the region — and then suddenly, on April 18, an island-wide blackout put residents back in the dark again. 

That's not a bad idea, bub.

Ryan Reynolds is revving all the fans up for Deadpool 2, but in an interview he rather startlingly said "I don't think there'll be a Deadpool 3".

Never fear, he wasn't waving goodbye to the merc with a mouth. Instead, Reynolds hinted at more of a group effort involving the X-Force. 

He had one other cross-over film idea. "I'd love to see a Deadpool/Logan movie," he said "A wolviepool movie... Читать дальше...

Even Conan O'Brien's playing God of War.

For his latest "Clueless Gamer" segment, the Late Night host wielded a Leviathan axe to play the wildly popular game with "the ultimate He-Man," actor and comedian Bill Hader.

The pair gave their most brutal, unimpressed commentary to PlayStation's record-breaking smash hit —  the game sold 3.1 million copies in its first three days, making it the fastest-selling PS4-exclusive ever.
