The camera I recommend to most new photographers is not a Nikon or Sony (and now it's $100 off)

Apple’s AirPort products are now ‘obsolete,’ with one exception

9to5mac.com Ryan Christoffel 2026-01-27 08:31:21

Apple has updated its list of obsolete and vintage products with a variety of fresh additions (via MacRumors), including the 2013 Mac Pro, 2019 Macs, 2018 iPads, and more. Perhaps one of the most significant changes is that several AirPort products have now been marked ‘obsolete.’ Here’s what that means.

Will That Massive ‘Superman’ Revelation Impact the Future of DC?

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-01-27 08:30:35

James Gunn’s Superman centers on a few key moments. One of the biggest is the message Kal-El, played by David Corenswet, was left with from his Kryptonian parents.

Either way, it’s a bombshell revelation that changes not just the character but the entire trajectory of the movie, and so we had to talk to the people most directly affected by it.
