While you might feel like you know everything about Rose you could possibly know given that she often rambled on and on with elaborate stories about her upbringing in St....

A year later that ability to encrypt your phone’s traffic, along with spam warnings and Wi-Fi calling, came to non-Pixel devices....

Based on the early plot details centering on Ghostbusters: Afterlife, it looks very likely that Egon Spengler’s family will be at the focus of the movie. Egon portrayed one of the original Ghostbusters in the first two films of the franchise. Not only did Harold Ramis star as the character, but he also wrote both Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II alongside co-star Dan Aykroyd. Ramis passed away in 2014 but our theory suggests that the character will live on through the next generation....

As part of the Senate Judiciary hearings today, former FTC official (and new Google employee) Susan Creighton, testified under oath today that Google, Microsoft and Yahoo! all bid to become the default search engine on iOS’s Mobile Safari Web Browser.
