After four episodes of searching for what was left of the United Federation of Planets, the crew of the USS Discovery actually finds the new incarnation of their government, 930 years later. For a casual fan, the new Starfleet and United Federation of Planets may not seem all that different — after all, didn’t they have greyish uniforms kind of like that in the last Chris Pine movie, Star Trek Beyond?...
That synopsis doesn’t give us much, but does tease a darker show than what we’re used to from Star Wars. It could be one of the most creative, too. Since it probably takes place decades before the start of the film saga, features new characters, and explores the dark side of Force, could this be a Prequel series worthy of The Mandalorian? What might it be about? The High Republic series, first announced last year as a publishing initiative spanning books, comics, and short stories, focuses on the era almost 300 years before the gilded age of the Republic seen in the Prequel Trilogy....
Now, many of you might remember Data East releasing Captain America and the Avengers back in 1991. The side-scrolling beat ‘em up isn’t the best in its genre, but it does holds up in how well it represents the Avengers. You have your choice between Captain America, Iron Man, Hawkeye, and Vision (white version) as you take on the Red Skull and such villains as Ultron, the Mandarin, and Crossbones....
A brute force attack is a really stubborn attempt by an attacker to break into your WordPress dashboard and take over control of it. They try various combinations of usernames and passwords, which can possibly let them in, mostly by guesswork or bots. Since we all know the URL to log into the WordPress admin panel is “wp-admin” or “wp-login”, it kind of gets easier for hackers to at least know where to attack....

There are two parts to this blogpost – the first part talks about how to install Apache Tomcat on Ubuntu by yourself, and the second part talks about the best hosting platforms available to host Tomcat applications. What is Apache Tomcat? Apache Tomcat is an open-source web/application server from the Apache foundation. It was formerly called Jakarta. It is an HTTP server and a servlet container. By default, it runs on port 8080....
What Is AWS Educate? Students can create their own AWS account and pay for the services using the AWS credits they receive. Hence, IT students coming from economically weaker sections, less-equipped colleges, etc., can also learn about AWS so that they can enter the cloud computing job marketplace. Sometimes, learning content does not even need you to set up an AWS cloud computing infrastructure because that content comes with interactive, hands-on labs....
The call center is a booming business provided that the service industry adds trillions of dollars to the global GDP. According to the World Bank, it is 65.70% in 2020. Similarly, according to a Statista report, the call center market size should be growing from $340 billion in 2020 to $496 billion in 2027. Call centers are fast-paced workplaces. Here, every second matters. Hence, call center managers rely on call center scripts to guide the fresh and trainee call center agents....
The pages of Marvel Comics include some of the most iconic romantic relationships in pop culture, but looking at the feature films that comprise the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you’d be forgiven for not really knowing that fact. These twenty-some-odd movies have given us everything from space operas and magic to war dramas and spy films. Yet, in all this time, we’ve never really gotten a love story, and certainly not a film in which the central romantic relationship was the primary driving force behind its narrative....
The adventure is set in the Golden Isle, where Fenyx, a shipwrecked warrior (male or female), discovers that every mortal but them has been turned to stone by a monstrosity named Typhon, who was once banished by the gods but has returned for revenge and seemingly wiped them from existence. Only Zeus and his disgraced cousin Prometheus remain, and to his dismay, Zeus must listen to Prometheus as he narrates Fenyx’s journey to restore the gods’ power....
With DevOps automation, your team just writes a code and sends it to online platforms that offer services like configuration management and infrastructure-as-code and deploy software faster. However, you need to know about IaC and ConfigMgmt and their differences to figure out the right approach for DevOps automation. Let’s dig in! Infrastructure-As-Code (IaC) Infrastructure-as-code is a DevOps method of provisioning IT infrastructure to software development teams for faster deployment of applications....
Inhumans Episode 8 Marvel’s Inhumans is over and it’s a complex series to try and sum up. I think we all have to admit that while the show ended up being more enjoyable than the dreadful opening two hours would have indicated, Inhumans is still Marvel’s first swing and a miss. Even Iron Fist was additive to the Marvel Universe; Inhumans just kind of exists in its own low budget bubble....
From exsanguination to decapitation, Inside No. 9 episodes have never shied away from grisly murder, and so far, series six is no different. Opener ‘Wuthering Heist’ was a bloodbath, while follow-up ‘Simon Says’ gave us a total of four deaths – two faked and two real. One of the real ‘Simon Says’ deaths was made to feel all the more authentic for filming choices made by director Guillem Morales. After Simon (Reece Shearsmith), the scheming fan of a fantasy TV series, blackmails its writer Spencer (Steve Pemberton) into remaking the show’s unpopular finale, a misunderstanding leads to Spencer smothering Simon to death....
The online petition to ‘Remake Game of Thrones Season 8 with competent writers’ currently has over 1.8 million signatures. Despite the series having ended two years ago and HBO politely declining the opportunity to bin its $100m first attempt and have another go, people continue to add their names. Call it love or call it entitlement, some fans can’t move on. That’s the context for ‘Simon Says’, a dark story about the writer of a fictional fantasy TV epic with a famously unpopular ending....
Beheading, drowning, strangulation, throat-slitting, cannibalism, exsanguination, human sacrifice, dead babies… Practically nothing makes Inside No. 9 flinch. Let’s not forget, its first ever episode was a tale of historical child sexual abuse that ended in mass murder – which might explain why it took Bafta six series to finally award it ‘Best Comedy’. It’s only the arrival of Inside No. 9’s first overtly political episode that marks out how apolitical the show has been until now....
Interview with the Vampire Episode 6 Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire’s season 1 episode 6 “Like Angels Put in Hell by God,” is somewhat of a relief after “The Ruthless Pursuit of Blood with All a Child’s Demanding.” The insane conclusion left things so far up in the air, the residual suspense has been unyielding. It appears Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid) may believe he went too far. He may not....
Bullet Train comes barreling into theaters loaded with a heaping helping of gratuitous violence. This is no surprise from director David Leitch, who began his career as a stuntman, specifically Brad Pitt’s stuntman. Consequently, Leitch is a master at delivering action and ultra-violence on a grand scale. The title reflects this and its setting, with the Shinkansen, a 50+ year old network of high-speed railways, colloquially known as the “bullet train” in Japan....
There’s no denying this multiple-BAFTA-winning baking show is a top-tier hit: since its modest launch in 2010, it’s earned record ratings (up to 16 million), and that special kind of nationwide adoration most shows can only dream of, plus over 35 international versions, and even its celebrity charity spin-off The Great Stand Up To Cancer Bake Off regularly pulling in ratings of over five million. But the truth is, for the last few years it’s been slowly collapsing like Ruby’s vegan showstopper, and this year it’s finally gone splat....
