Repasting a MacBook

You should repaste your MacBook (but don't) My favorite memory of my M1 Pro MacBook Pro was the whole sensation of “holy crap, you never hear the fans in this thing”, which was very novel in 2021. Four years later, this MacBook Pro is still a delight.

The SuperFantastic summer at the movies has kicked off with the release of Superman, but Marvel Studios The Fantastic Four: First Steps is making sure you know it’s not too far behind. The release of the latest trailer for Fantastic Four evokes a feel-good, retro space-age vibe that complements the Man of Steel’s themes. Unlike Barbenheimer before it, the SuperFantastic double feature is primed to make you feel like it’s a return to the Silver Age of comic books. Take a look below: In the late

Samsung’s budget Galaxy Z Flip is here, but it’s not what I was hoping for

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-25 16:00:35

Samsung’s recent generations have taught me one thing: I love its Fan Edition lineup. From traditional smartphones to tablets to wearables, it’s won me over time and again, offering just the right mix of specs and price to make sense for those who want a flagship experience without the cost. And, when I heard that it might be expanding to include a foldable phone for the first time, you better believe I was excited.

You Can Soon Own a Very Realistic Pedro Pascal Figure

From Star Wars to Marvel, The Last of Us, and more, Pedro Pascal is one of the most famous and in-demand actors working today. Everyone loves him. Everyone wants a piece of him. And soon, you can own not just a piece; you can own the whole damn thing.

The Opening of ‘Final Fantasy IX’ Is a Love Letter to Fantasy Itself

Final Fantasy games are known for their big, bombastic openings. Final Fantasy VII‘s legendary bombing mission, the brainwashed Terra being sent through the snowy paths into Narshe in Final Fantasy VI, the destruction of Zanarkand in Final Fantasy X—these are grand set pieces with high stakes, introducing threats and conflicts central to their epic narratives.

There comes a point every summer when even the most die-hard fans of warm weather start to feel the heat creeping in. Whether it’s the still air in your bedroom at night, the relentless sun during your backyard barbecue, or just the need to feel something other than sweat while working in a home office, a standard box fan or ceiling fixture doesn’t always cut it.

Few sites on the internet can be as fun, or frustrating, to cruise as Zillow. It’s the place to see how impossible it is to afford your dream home and also see how far a dollar can go in places you don’t live. However, it seems in whatever time and dimension the Fantastic Four live in, the dollar goes a long, long way, even in one of the priciest real estate markets of all, New York City.

Keeping your house cool during the summer can be tough. Maybe you don’t have central air. Or maybe your family insists that you keep the thermostat higher than what’s normally to your liking.

Crunchyroll Accidentally Left AI Slop in Anime Subtitles

Crunchyroll, the massively popular anime streaming service and distributor, just got caught using obvious AI slop in its subtitles. The slipup was made in the premiere episode of a new series called "Necronomico and the Cosmic Horror Show" — and trust us, there's no guesswork involved in sniffing out the AI here. Around the 19:12 mark, the show's German subtitles feature a big fat "ChatGPT said:" jammed into the dialog. A classic, lazy error. (We double checked, and it's still there as of this

The Sets of ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Look, Well, Fantastic

The decision to set The Fantastic Four: First Steps in a retro, 1960s-inspired world couldn’t have come easy. For one, it meant the entire film would take place in a multiverse away from the traditional Marvel Cinematic Universe. Also, it meant the production would have to build all of these sets from the ground up. We still don’t know much about the multiversal madness of Fantastic Four, but in a new video just released by Marvel, we do know about its sets. Director Matt Shakman, along with pr

Jon Watts Left ‘Fantastic Four’ to Get His Groove Back

Before Matt Shakman took over directing duties for the MCU’s first Fantastic Four movie, Jon Watts was in charge. The director of the Spider-Man: Home trilogy dropped out in 2022, and his reasons for leaving are completely valid: he had to take a much-needed break. During a recent storytelling class at the Mediterrane Film Festival, Watts revealed he was basically “out of gas” by the time he was wrapping Spider-Man: No Way Home, which was shot in the early days of the pandemic.
