After years of speculation about the iconic colorway’s fate, the stainless steel and white gold GMT-Master II timepieces are nowhere to be found in any form on the Swiss watch giant’s website. The models were made famous for their blue and red Cerachrom bezels — which resembled the logo of the soft drink it was named after — but it was reportedly those bezels that brought about its end. According to WatchPro, the bold color combination on the bezels is uniquely difficult to manufacture, which caused quality control issues over the years and ultimately led to its ending. Rolex confirmed the model’s discontinuation after it disappeared from the brand’s website during …

I Took A Do-Over On My 12-Year Marriage But Not At All For The Reason You’d Think

I Took A Do-Over On My 12-Year Marriage But Not At All For The Reason You’d Think

Going against all marriage advice, I’m taking a do-over on my own marriage after a two-year break. My almost-ex-husband and I are looking for a new place to live, and this time we’re going in with a plan and clearly defined expectations for how our lives together should look. No way could we have done that 12 years ago or even two years ago when I left.  For this marriage to have any chance of making it, it first had to come all the way undone. I met Sam in line for Grateful Dead tickets a few months after I started my first out-of-college reporting job. He was tall and tan and big across the shoulders with brown hair hanging down to his chest. I took a do-over on my marriage, but not for the reason you’d think Gustavo Fring / Pexels Some scenes you see forever in your head: I still see Sam coming down the block. How his arms hung away from his body, not touching his sides when he walked. He had on …

Apple May Break a 12-Year Chip Strategy

TSMC has been the exclusive supplier of Apple’s systems-on-a-chip since 2014, but that 12-year streak could be nearing its end. According to The Wall Street Journal, Apple is exploring whether some of its lower-end processors could be manufactured by a company other than TSMC. “Now that TSMC is doing more business with Nvidia and other AI companies, people with knowledge of the chip supply chain said Apple was exploring whether some lower-end processors could be made by someone other than TSMC,” the report said. The report did not mention any candidates, but previous rumors have indicated that Intel could begin supplying some lower-end Apple processors in 2027 or 2028. A few months ago, GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu said that he expected Intel to reach a chip supply deal with Apple for at least some non-pro iPhone models starting in 2028. Based on that timeframe, Intel could supply Apple with at least a portion of A21 or A22 chips for future iPhone models, if the companies agree to a partnership. Apple’s return to Intel might …

Greer, 33, is the Frasier star’s second child, whom he welcomed in 1992 with his then-girlfriend, stylist Barrie Buckner. The pair split when Greer was just four. Grammer eventually reconnected with Greer when she was 16. During a recent appearance on the Pretty Basic Podcast, Greer, who is also an actor known for her role as Lissa on MTV’s Awkward, shared: “[Grammer] was always my last name. I guess my dad did ask my mom — he told me this later — but he was like, ‘I told your mom… I said it might be better for you to not have …
