OnePlus may have decided to discontinue the production and sale of televisions and monitors in India. The BBK Electronics-owned Chinese brand has removed the TV and Displays categories from its India website hinting at a potential shift in business strategy. OnePlus forayed into the television category back in 2019 by launching the OnePlus TV Q1 series. Over the years, it released multiple affordable and mid-range smart TV models in the country. OnePlus is yet to share an official statement…

We’re just days away from The Academy Awards, and as both a movie fan and a noted prognosticator, I couldn’t be more fired up. There are a ton of worthy films and stars up for awards this year, and while there are overwhelming favorites in several categories, there’s also room for plenty of surprises in several more, which is always the perfect balance. I don’t want all chaos, but a little bit of uncertainty goes a long way in making the night more exciting.I can’t promise I’ll help you win your office Oscar pool, but I…

While some categories are a lock, some have us on the edge of our seats. (Alex Rhodes / For The Times) Did Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” have the best picture Oscar in the bag when it opened in theaters last July? All the necessary building blocks were in place. Ecstatic reviews? Almost unanimous! Packed theaters? Yes! To the eventual tune of nearly $1 billion worldwide. A Great Man biopic (emphasis on Man ... the academy is still a bit of a boys’ club)? Three hours’ worth ... but also one that…

For now, we’ll remain a grocer and depending on the need we will keep adding categories as we go along,” Hari Menon, cofounder and CEO of…

The Notification Categories feature is among the most useful and well-integrated One UI elements. I'd go as far as to say it's probably underrated, but that doesn't really bother me as long as the feature exists and remains a part of One UI. To be frank, the thought that Samsung might be preparing to remove it frustrates me to no end, and I hope the new One UI 6.1 update for the Galaxy S24 series isn't a sign of bad things to come. Here's a bit of backstory as to why I'm worried about the future of Notification…

Oscar nominations arrive bright and early Tuesday morning, the last of the season’s unveilings, following the guilds, the Globes, the Emmys, the ... what? The Emmys? In case you weren’t paying attention — and judging from the ratings, it seems like most of you had better things to do — television’s biggest night was shoehorned into the (extremely) long and winding road leading up to the Oscars, which are still a couple of months away. Still a couple of months away ... and, yet, so many of the races already seem decided.…

For many, "new year, new me" includes finding a new job. Scouring sites like LinkedIn and Indeed for opportunities can feel like a full-time role in and of itself. This process could potentially improve moving forward, with LinkedIn announcing its latest feature: Job Collections.Basically, instead of searching for a specific industry or role, LinkedIn is using generative AI and large language models to analyze each job posting and categorize it into groups such as IT, pro sports, remote and top startups. Along with saving…

Lily Gladstone’s chilling performance in Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon has made the talent a frontrunner during the 2024 award season set to honor the best achievements in film from the 2023 movie release schedule. Ahead of the Oscars this spring, Gladstone is entering the ongoing conversation about gendered award categories, as the actor discusses her own preferred pronouns. In this year’s Best Actress race, Gladstone’s performance in Killers of the Flower Moon (one of our voted best movies of 2023) seems…
