Famed for starring in the most notoriously canceled television series ever, Nathan Fillion has stamped his mark on a generation. A near-perpetual presence on television for the last 20-odd years, along with popping up in some interesting movies and videogames, ensures he’s somebody’s favorite part of something. He’s reliably engaging and likable to such a degree that whether he’s the lead or not, he’s going to be remembered fondly. Equally able to be a smooth-talking schmoozer, a befuddled, beset-upon buffoon, and a dozen things around and in between, he’s a chameleon you’re always happy to recognize....

There’s several key statements there – it seems to imply Apple has more than one strategy for servers, with multiple teams involved in their development. Anyway, if you’re interested in taking the job, it’s a full-time position at Apple’s Cupertino campus.

Netflix’s The Witcher mythology is closely based on the books by Andrzej Sapkowski, and that means a deep and complicated terminology that can be daunting to viewers new to the property. The Witcher follows the adventures of Geralt of Rivia, a witcher whose profession involves the intimate knowledge of and ability to slay monsters. While many people have made comparisons of the show to Game of Thrones for the way it handles political matters, it’s much more high fantasy than that juxtaposition might imply....

The codes reveal a new Apple TV with the codename “T1125”, while the current Apple TV 4K is named “J105a” and the HD model is “J42d”. The letter “T” at the beginning suggests that it’s an internal model, probably a prototype that hasn’t been completely finished yet. We don’t know what exactly are the new features of this Apple TV, but the internal files of tvOS 13.4 suggest that the hardware is based on the arm64e architecture, the same used in both A12 and A13 Bionic chips — the current generation runs with the A10 Fusion chip....

2015 isn’t over yet but the rumor mill is now churning for Apple’s 2016 product pipeline.

In terms of rough timeframe, the product could be announced at WWDC 2016, around June. The MacBook Air has not seen a significant hardware change since 2010, so a major update is certainly due....

But will its new pop-up ad strategy cost Roku TV customers? If you’re streaming TV content with commercials, get ready to see more ads with Roku TV — or rather, ads on top of ads if your Roku has the latest operating system.

This is where Neo Cab thrives, delivering a future fifteen minutes from now that feels both alien and worryingly familiar....

Netflix’s YOU just kept on giving in its second season, which further deepened Joe’s character and introduced Love, a potential female version of the obsession that Joe characterizes.

YOU isn’t exactly the best place to go for advice for relationships, but Joe’s obsessive behavior does shed some light on modern dating issues....

While the entire network map is useful for understanding the overall structure of the network, network mapping can also be useful for incident response. Humans tend to process information much better as visualizations rather than lists of data. It is much easier to understand traffic flows throughout the network in a diagram rather than a list of connection flows. Network maps are useful for more than describing the network architecture for planning, upgrades and security reviews....
