Warning: SPOILERS for Hanna. The Hanna TV series also makes some significant changes to Hanna’s origin story. In both versions of Hanna, the young girl is raised in the forest and trained to fight and survive by a former soldier named Erik Heller, played by Eric Bana in the film and by Joel Kinnaman (Suicide Squad) in the series. Heller saves the baby Hanna from a CIA facility and tries to escape with her mother Johanna, but she is killed and Erik must raise Hanna alone....

At the beginning of the year we mentioned that Google and some of the other big names on the internet were teaming up for an IPv6 test run. Now, it’s here. We have roughly 4 hours until IPv6 day starts; which could be either June 7 or June 8 depending on where you live in the world. For most people, you probably won’t even notice that this is happening. But, for all the network techs and geeks out there this is a pretty big deal....

The magical and muggle worlds of Harry Potter are famously divided. The Statute of Secrecy prevents wizards from disclosing the existence of the wizarding world, on a public level, to muggle society. The effects of such a statute are felt across the wizarding world too, as witches and wizards are centuries behind muggle in terms of technology. And it almost seems that witches and wizards are technophobes, with the greatest example of this being the fact that most technology does not work on the grounds of Hogwarts....

Harry Potter spent his entire life surrounded by people who sought to take advantage of his power and status as “The Boy Who Lived”. While a handful of people tried to betray Harry, there were some genuinely good people who wanted the best for the kid who was thrust into a position in life that he never asked for. Who remained loyal towards Harry? Who turned their backs on him? Read on to find out!...

The struggle is real. HBO’s Girls centers around the lives of millennial Hannah Horvath and her friends as they navigate the world of post-college adulthood. Girls creator Lena Dunham completely captured the millennial generation, warts and all. Hannah grew up being told she could be anything she wants, without learning the independence to get herself there. She and her pals walk that fine line between freedom and aimlessness, often leaning towards the latter....

Warning: SPOILERS for Young Justice #10 The days of watching Tim Drake play sidekick to Batman have been over for years, but it’s still a historic day in Tim’s life… now that he has officially debuted in DC’s Universe in his new superhero persona, Drake. And with a brand new costume to go with it. The reveal seemed to lose much of it mystique long ahead of time, when Young Justice writer Brian Michael Bendis began teasing the change for Tim on social media, and even in the official solicitations text for future issues....

If you attempt to sign in to Google+, the search giant’s latest social thing (available now on your phone via Android Market, coming soon to iPhone as a native app), the system will cut you off if you are not over a certain age, putting up this warning (thanks, @admhawrth): By the way, what’s a certain age anyway and why don’t they make public the age limit? Because Google+ authorizes users with their Google Account, which is widely used across other Google properties, the system can tell your age by looking up the birth date information in your account....

Google Cloud Security vice president Sunil Potti said Siemplify is a leader in the security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) field. Their platform will be integrated into Google Cloud’s security team “to help companies better manage their threat response.” “In a time when cyberattacks are rapidly growing in both frequency and sophistication, there’s never been a better time to bring these two companies together. We both share the belief that security analysts need to be able to solve more incidents with greater complexity while requiring less effort and less specialized knowledge....

We showed you significant updates to Google Maps which leaked early this morning, and Google just announced updates to Maps at Google I/O. Google also announced that its Maps API is used by over 1 million active sites and accessed by 1 billion unique visitors weekly. Maps will now feature a 5 star rating system for locations across all platforms. Users can now swipe across results in a simple, gesture user interface....

Organizing, backing up, and enjoying digital photos is something I’ve cared deeply about for almost a decade. My oldest son was born in 2010, so he was at the perfect age when iPhone cameras started improving at a dramatic rate year over year. iCloud Photos and Google Photos are the most common solutions for photo management that people use today. What’s the best way to manage photos on iPhone, iPad, and Mac?...

After rolling out the update to Android devices last week, Google today updated its Google Wallet app for iOS with the ability to scan physical loyalty cards. Rather than having to type out your account information to join a new program within the app, scanning a physical loyalty card from a supported retailer will auto-populate your info and automate the process. The updated app also now includes new notifications for nearby retailers related to loyalty programs you’ve joined....

The feature has already started rolling out to user accounts, and there’s a few ways of appearing on the site. This can be useful if you want to have a consistent identity all over Google’s sites. In case you didn’t know, using your real name is necessary on Google Plus (even if you can also use a nickname). For me, the process started when I tried to comment on a video, but if it doesn’t, you can find it in the Advanced section of your YouTube account settings, which you can find here....

Gotham was a mixed bag of storytelling for both critics and audience members watching from the comfort of their couch. There was a lot of love for the risks the series took to reinvent Batman’s origin story. The audience, however, frequently wished for more comic book related content than what they got, or more time with certain characters, or even more explorations of specific villains instead of Bruce Wayne. That’s why, after 100 episodes, not every hour ranks near a perfect 10....

Mores specifically, Greenpeace gives Apple an A- in its energy efforts, a B in chemicals, and a C in resources. The organization praises Apple for its supply chain work and push towards renewable energy: Further building on supply chain praise, Greenpeace points to Apple’s promise of closing the supply chain as an example of progress being made in using secondary materials: Apple has now succeeded in getting 14 suppliers to make near-term commitments to become 100% renewably powered for the Apple-related portion of the supplier’s energy demand....

Data from the (ISC)² Cybersecurity Workforce Report reveals that the landscape of women in cybersecurity is complex and — at least in some ways — evolving: Women make up 24% of the cybersecurity workforce — a major increase from 11% in 2017 Women earn more degrees and cybersecurity certifications on average More women than men hold leadership roles like IT Director, CISO and CIO Seeing these numbers on the rise is exciting and encouraging....

Halide launched as a gorgeous, gesture-based iPhone app almost one year ago, and the camera app continues to receive major updates and new features. Today’s Halide 1.7 release includes an advanced portrait mode feature, an AR depth viewer, and much more. Halide’s support for portrait mode photography uses a combination of facial detection and objection recognition to focus on the right subject and snap a depth shot instantly — which Halide calls a first for App Store apps....

We’ve seen a variety of CAD renders and cases for the upcoming iPhone 11 and now we’ve got a hands-on look at some iPhone 11 Max clones. They are running an iOS skinned version of Android and include the new square camera bump that we’re expecting Apple to implement with this year’s iPhone lineup. Spotted by Ben Geskin, YouTuber Amazing Unboxing shared the video today going hands-on with the iPhone 11 Max clones in space gray, silver, and gold....

It happened today four years ago, and now of course Apple’s media management and acquisition software is an industry leader in most markets in which it operates, and alternatives including the BBC’s iPlayer and NBC’s Hulu are prevalent. Indeed, so part of life has online video now become that YouTube last week confirmed it’s showing one billion clips each and every day. Think back, won’t you, to Apple CEO Steve Jobs’ 2005 statement that, “We’re doing for video what we’ve done for music—we’re making it easy and affordable to purchase and download, play on your computer, and take with you on your iPod....

In the Harry Potter series, Neville Longbottom could have been The Boy Who Lived. He shared a birthday with the title character, had parents who fought the good fight, and was a wizard by birth. His bravery, despite his intense fear, made him a fan favorite in the series. Likewise, the introduction of Luna Lovegood in Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire brought an eccentric, but loyal, friend to the story....
