Eventually, he concluded that the Quest 3 was “the better product, period."Zuckerberg thinks the Quest is "a lot more comfortable," noting that the…

Mark Zuckerberg tried an Apple Vision Pro and he didn't like it. Or rather - he thinks Meta's Quest 3 headset is better.

Such buzz has now prompted the Dune: Part Two cast to finally speak out about their thoughts on the NSFW popcorn tin. (Spoiler Alert: If your product…

The current average lifespan of a human being is just over 73 years. It’s not a very long period, and we might not get to do everything we want in the time we have, but what we do with it is up to us. While some things might not work out the way we’d like, it doesn’t make it right to try to fix them at someone else’s expense. But as one Redditor recently found out, some people just don’t get it. When this woman had a baby, her MIL decided that she would be the one to raise the child and relive being a mom, seemingly…

I was watching Ready Steady Go! when the Beatles said that Shout was their favourite song. Do you remember that moment? RobertWinchester49When Ready Steady Go! went out, the streets would be empty because the whole country was watching. I was like every other 15-year-old girl – obsessed with the Beatles. So for John and Paul to say Shout was their favourite record released that week was phenomenal. They were revolutionising the world, so it didn’t get any better than their recommendation. I can thank the Beatles for…

For the last decade, writer/director Matthew Vaughn has been building the world of Kingsman, the franchise based around a secret group of English spies (which was inspired by the James Bond franchise). Now, he's directed Argylle -- a movie which is also about spycraft and that even includes reference to the Kingsman movies. It could mean that the first franchise exist in the "real world" of the 2024 movie schedule entry. So is there a possibility we could see these characters crossover?
