Originally released in theaters last year, the movie from Constantine director Francis Lawrence is based on a dystopian novel first published in 1979. The film version spent decades in development hell and became considered “unfilmable.” Among the filmmakers attached to the project over the years were George Romero (Dawn of the Dead), in the late 1980s, and The Shawshank Redemption director Frank Darabont in the 2000s. King himself was involved in the eventual adaptation and made one request of Lawrence and screenwriter JT Mollner (Strange Darling): that they up the violence. “If you look at these superhero movies, you’ll see some supervillain who’s destroying whole city blocks, but you never see any blood,” King …

Here’s Why Apple is Reportedly Skipping M6 Pro and M6 Max Chips

Here’s Why Apple is Reportedly Skipping M6 Pro and M6 Max Chips

Published by skeptic

According to Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman, Apple will be releasing a regular M6 chip, but it has no plans to offer higher-end M6 Pro and M6 Max chips. In his Power On newsletter today, he said the reason for this break in tradition is AI. “Apple had been planning major neural-processing upgrades for the M7 family and ultimately decided those improvements were important enough to justify accelerating the next generation rather than completing the M6 lineup,” he explained. There won’t be an M6 Ultra chip either, he said. A new 14-inch MacBook Pro with a base M6 chip will be released later this year, and then Apple plans to move on to releasing the base M7 chip in the first half of 2027, M7 Pro and M7 Max chips in late 2027, and an M7 Ultra chip in 2028. He said the M7 Ultra chip in particular “dramatically upgrades AI performance,” and that it may power Apple Intelligence servers starting in 2029. “AI is no longer just another feature Apple’s chips need to support,” said Gurman. …

iPhone 18 Pro Max Component Costs Could Rise Nearly 0

iPhone 18 Pro Max Component Costs Could Rise Nearly $300

Published by skeptic

The bill of materials for the iPhone 18 Pro Max is expected to rise by nearly $300 compared to the iPhone 17 Pro Max, according to a new Counterpoint Research analysis. The estimate covers the 1TB storage model. NAND flash costs for the device are said to exceed $250 on their own, a figure that would cover roughly half of the ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌ Max’s entire estimated component cost. DRAM pricing is also climbing sharply, with both components facing pressure from a broader memory chip shortage tied to surging demand for AI hardware. Apple’s expected shift to a 2nm chip is described as the second-largest contributor to the cost increase. The ‌iPhone 18 Pro‌ is rumored to debut the A20 Pro, manufactured on TSMC’s N2 process, which reportedly carries a steep premium in wafer pricing over the current N3P node used for the A19 Pro. Early yield ramp costs on a new process node typically add to per-unit chip pricing as well. Counterpoint says display costs and other miscellaneous components may actually decline compared to …

Conor McGregor Confident for Rematch With Max Holloway, as the Two Headline UFC 329 on Saturday

Published by Sam Flores

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Conor McGregor said he is ready for his return to the Octagon. The 37-year-old Irishman is also convinced he’ll have his way with Max Holloway in the main event of UFC 329 at T-Mobile Arena on Saturday night. The two will meet in a welterweight bout, as McGregor will compete for the first time in more than five years. “Hallelujah!” McGregor exclaimed on Wednesday. “The Mac is back.” McGregor earned a unanimous decision over Holloway in a featherweight clash in 2013, when neither was an MMA megastar. In the blink of an eye, McGregor’s star rose. On Wednesday, he admitted he got caught up in his own stardom after winning UFC belts in two weight classes and becoming one of the biggest names in combat sports. “I launched an Irish whiskey,” McGregor said. “I didn’t drink heavily, if at all, at that time of my life. I was an athlete at the top of my game. Next thing you know, thousands upon thousands of bottles (are) in my garage. ”‘Sell this, …

iPhone 18 Pro Max Said to Be Thicker and Heavier Than Predecessor

Published by skeptic

Apple’s upcoming iPhone 18 Pro Max could be noticeably thicker and heavier than its predecessor, suggesting a trade-off behind the device’s rumored larger battery. Chinese leaker Ice Universe today claimed the iPhone 18 Pro Max will measure around 9mm thick and weigh approximately 240 grams. That would make the device around 0.25mm thicker and roughly 7 grams heavier than the current iPhone 17 Pro Max. The latest claim comes off the back of recent regulatory filings indicating the iPhone 18 Pro Max will feature a 5,391mAh battery in China and a 5,567mAh battery in the U.S. – an increase of nearly 500mAh over the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Ice Universe suggested the added thickness and weight are a direct result of the larger battery, but Apple is also said to be adopting a new type of vapor chamber that uses stainless steel, which could also be a contributing factor. The rumor builds on an earlier claim that Apple’s next flagship could become the heaviest iPhone ever. If so, it would have to be heavier than …
