In much the same manner as Hulu’s Four Weddings and a Funeral, 2020’s High Fidelity is set to reboot another classic romantic comedy into a TV show. The TV show has a lot to live up to, as the 2000 movie with the same name received critical acclaim and was named the 446th greatest movie of all time by Empire Magazine, as well as the 14th greatest romantic comedy of all time by Rotten Tomatoes....
Captain Marvel burst through the box office with spectacular results. Not that we didn’t expect Marvel’s first female-led superhero film to do anything less than that. Men and women from around the world took their seats in theaters on March 8th and watched as Brie Larson brought to life one of the strongest women in the superhero legion. The story of pilot turned Kree correspondent made its way into the hearts of many, however, none as much so as cosplayers....
We get it, it’s cool to be able to use the iPhone’s taptic engine to simulate a button push. But it’s now being overdone to such an extent that we’re all suffering from haptic overload … Facebook has for a while done it when you like a post. It’s unclear why, as you get a clear visual indication – but the company apparently thinks it’s a good thing, as it is now testing the same feature in Instagram....

Harry Potter is undeniably one of the most charming, likable, and bravest protagonists of any fictional series in history. Harry’s entire life seemed to consist of suffering and pain, and he was literally marked from the time he was a baby as the one boy who could possibly kill the most powerful dark wizard of all time, or the boy who had to be killed by the most powerful dark wizard of all time....
When you think of Harry Potter, you can’t help but also think about Quidditch. It’s the magical game that has made its way over to the real world, even if participants can’t fly on broomsticks like they do in the novels and movies. And it’s a significant part of the wizarding community, their own answer to the likes of football, baseball, basketball, and soccer, not to mention very prominent at Hogwarts....
Even though it’s been over a decade since the book release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows technically brought an end to the Boy Who Lived’s unforgettable story, Potterheads have had plenty of reasons since then to stay obsessed with J.K. Rowling’s wizarding world. The Fantastic Beasts films, the screenplay for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and Rowling’s occasional Pottermore updates have helped fans feel like they’ve never truly said goodbye to Harry and his friends, so it’s no wonder that the Potter craze is as strong now as it’s ever been....
One of the biggest events in Harry Potter is Quidditch. It’s the premier sport of the wizarding world. People who attend Hogwarts love Quidditich, it’s an epic past time and the main sport depicted in the series. The entire game is played on broomsticks with members of each team flying and trying to catch the Golden Snitch, which is the Seeker’s job. When reading the books or watching the movies, you’ll see many different games depicted and understanding the rules of the game is surprisingly easy, maybe even easier than some of our own Muggle sports....
4th gen iPad Air and 8th gen iPad While details about the chip inside it are still unknown, we’ve learned that the 4th generation iPad Air will have a single-lens rear camera.

It does not seem like there are many career paths in the world of Harry Potter. The top three appear to be either the Ministry of Magic, a job in magical retail, or teach at Hogwarts. While it would be wrong to insult the shop assistants in Honeydukes Sweet Shop or the Three Broomsticks, the desired role is surely at Hogwarts; even Lord Voldemort wanted to become the defense against the dark arts professor!...
The Dark Arts remain one of the most intriguing areas in the Potter universe. There is a lot that can be written and speculated on when it comes to this rather fascinating, extremely dangerous branch of magic that, as far as the Potterverse is concerned, culminated in one of the darkest and most evil wizards of all time, Voldemort. However, the Dark Arts are not just about Voldemort or his gang of Death Eaters....
The Harry Potter phenomenon really came out of nowhere, didn’t it? Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone released in the UK way back in June 1997 (September 1998 in the US, subtitled Sorcerer’s Stone), the debut novel from an unknown author named J.K. Rowling. Yes, the talk of magic and such was enticing, but it was the story of a group of children at a British boarding school. It’s safe to say that nobody (including Rowling herself) expected this one to really strike a chord at all, let alone… well, we all know the impact that the Potterverse went on to have on popular culture....

Marvel Comics has teased Havok as the X-Men’s traitor - or possibly their savior - in an exclusive preview of the upcoming Hellions series. Jonathan Hickman’s X-Men relaunch has been a tremendous hit, and Marvel is about to launch the second wave of their X-Men titles. Writer Zeb Wells and artist Stephen Segovia are teaming up on one of the most promising books, Hellions, which is essentially the X-Men’s version of Suicide Squad....
Fedora 28 Installation As usual, installation is simple and straightforward. Not much configuration to accomplish apart from setting keyboard layouts, locale, and date-time zone. If you are trying out Fedora for the first time, you might be surprised it’s easy to install, though slightly different from the way how Ubuntu (and its derivatives) installation works. After installing Fedora (and then successfully rebooting) you’ll be taken through another setup to create user account and password....
The Order of the Phoenix were a group of people who fought against Lord Voldemort and his villainous Death Eaters during the first and wizarding wars. And while they reigned supreme in the end, what with Harry Potter himself defeating the Dark Lord at the battle of Hogwarts, it was often a group on the receiving end of blows aplenty amid their fight to keep both the wizarding and muggle communities safe....
When data exceeds the capacity of storage on a single physical machine, it becomes essential to divide it across a number of separate machines.
