Alex Lawther Didn’t Know Just How Much His ‘Andor’ Manifesto Hit Until Season 2

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-09-26 20:40:29

Of many, many breakout moments in Andor‘s first season, the passionate posthumous manifesto of Alex Lawther’s Karis Nemik providing the backdrop for Cassian’s return home remains one of the series’ standouts—perhaps only matched when the recording made a surprise return in the show’s second and final season, spreading the message of the Rebellion like a fire across the galaxy. But it wasn’t until the man behind the performance himself learned about that return that he realized just how much of a

There are some TV shows that stick with you forever (and others you completely forgot you've ever watched). For me, Damages, which originally aired for five seasons on FX, is seared in my brain since its first release in 2007. And it's now available to stream for free on Tubi. I was addicted from the series' first episode, which opens with Rose Byrne's character running out of an apartment building into the bustling streets of New York wearing nothing but a blood-soaked trench coat and high hee

Here’s what you’ll pay for ANBERNIC’s latest handheld console when sales open this Friday

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-27 00:22:41

TL;DR ANBERNIC reveals RG 476H pricing ahead of sales, and it’s good — but could be better. Formally set at $165, you’ll pay just $150 with an instant $15 discount. The manufacturer also confirms specs, which are almost perfectly in line with those of the RG Slide. Smartphones may be our bread and butter, but we are absolute suckers around here for a nice handheld gaming console — so we were understandably very excited earlier this month when we got word about the ANBERNIC RG 476H on the way.

Sure, it’s easy to argue for the importance of spending on science by pointing out that many of today’s most useful technologies had their origins in government-funded R&D. The internet, CRISPR, GPS—the list goes on and on. All true. But this argument ignores all the technologies that received millions in government funding and haven’t gone anywhere—at least not yet.

Ozempic May Be Less Effective for Emotional Eaters, Study Suggests

GLP-1 agonists—so-called “wonder drugs” like Ozempic or Wegovy that help individuals lower blood sugar levels and lose weight, among other things—yield significant results for some patients, but not all. People’s motivations to overeat may play a role in this, according to a new study.
