Ben Hawkes, team leader at Google’s Project Zero security team, revealed the existence of the vulnerabilities on Twitter this afternoon. As explained by ZDNet, the two vulnerabilities were fixed as part of iOS 12.1.4’s release today. However, Hawkes says both vulnerabilities were exploited in the wild as zero-day.

It took 884 photographs, months of planning, and 5.5 hours of labor to complete but Clay Bavor, Google Group Product Manager, and other Google employees created a GIANT Google Logo Mosaic using 4”x6” photographs. Where did they get the pictures? Google employed photographers of course. Last week Google updated its logo with a new look. You’re probably thinking “Huh.. it looks the same!” You’re right, except they’ve removed the shadows and improved the reflective lighting on each letter....

Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore may be one of the most respected characters in the history of literature, but he’s also a highly flawed Harry Potter hero whom we all love to poke fun at now and then.

When one thinks of Harry Potter’s friends the names that immediately come to mind are Ron and Hermione. If you keep pressing fans might tack on Ginny, Luna, and Neville. Maybe you might even add his other dormitory mates, Dean and Seamus. But what about Cedric Diggory? Hogwarts champion in the Triwizard Tournament. Hufflepuff seeker. Hufflepuff Prefect. When you think about it Cedric and Harry were really more rivals than friends, forced into contact with one another by circumstances outside either of their control....

In the Harry Potter franchise, we’re introduced to the four different houses at Hogwarts: Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and finally, Slytherin. Slytherin is the house that Voldemort was once a part of and, while Harry Potter is in school, is the house of his nemesis, Draco Malfoy. Even though Slytherin gets a little bit of a bad reputation from the bad witches and wizards that were sorted into that house, there were also a lot of totally awesome ones and Slytherin is the house that many fans of the series consider themselves to fit into....

A new theory suggests that Hagrid, one of the most beloved Harry Potter characters of all, could secretly have been one of Voldemort’s Death Eater. J.K. Rowling is undoubtedly one of the greatest literary talents of the present day, and key to her success is her love of meticulous planning. Over the years, she’s developed a reputation for having every detail of her stories planned out years before she ever put pen to paper....

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....

Mysterio’s recognizable costume is being properly brought to life in Spider-Man: Far From Home, and audiences will get to see even more of it thanks to Jake Gyllenhaal. Quentin Beck aka Mysterio has one of the most distinct looks of any of Spider-Man’s foes. His green-scaled suit, purple cape, and gold gauntlets help him stand out with ease, but it’s his fishbowl helmet that makes him instantly recognizable. As great as it looks in the pages of Marvel Comics, there was some trepidation that it would be properly realized in live-action....

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. As we know, Google won, and as we can infer, Apple gets some revenue from Google for making it its default search engine. As we know from Apple being Apple, the quality of the search results was probably as big a part of the decision as the relatively small bits of revenue....
