Nina Raemont/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. There are plenty of dedicated iPhone users like myself who are loyal to base model iPhones. When I upgrade my iPhone every two or so years, I don't bother with the Pro variations.

New Study Questions a Major Assumption About the Fall of the Roman Empire

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-05 17:21:14

The period after the Roman Empire abandoned Britain has long been known as the “Dark Ages” for a reason. Scholars believed that after the Romans left, local industries collapsed and effectively all progress ceased for centuries. Britain, they theorized, was plunged into a cultural and economic abyss with their departure. But for some time, a growing body of evidence has challenged this narrative. And in a new study published today in the journal Antiquity, researchers investigate the assumption

His character, Kevin Flynn, is the key to everything that has happened in this story, and while Tron: Ares doesn’t seem to be about him, the fact he’s in it at all is a major selling point.
