Wicked tongues of dissatisfied viewers have plagued the Captain Marvel franchise for years now in a hate campaign that set a number of unfortunate precedents. Convinced their negative opinions were actually reaching the ears of Marvel boss Kevin Feige, these doubters saw the film’s upcoming sequel The Marvels — which adds two characters to the top bill — as the studio’s attempt to fix an issue that lived solely in their heads.

Proving once again how out of touch the exceedingly wealthy are with the schmucks who don’t get paid an eye-watering fortune, Disney CEO Bob Iger has ruffled plenty of feathers by deeming the demands being made by the ongoing strike action in Hollywood to be unrealistic.

Now, the company is taking a big leap with a new variant that replaces the black and white screen with a full-color e-ink panel on its latest tablet — something the Kindle has never been able to achieve. Say hello to the Onyx Boox Tab Ultra C, an…

Despite the fact that the RTX 4070 Ti has been reviewed poorly, Nvidia’s latest GPU seems to be doing well in terms of sales numbers — at least as far as the European market is concerned. According to newly published sales figures, Nvidia managed to sell a huge quantity of RTX 4070 Ti GPUs.

Channeling the spirit of Greta Thunberg, who secured her own spot in the Twitter hall of fame…
