|
Hardware updates for the iMac, MacBook Pro, and Mac Mini lines should land just weeks from now, according to Apple tipster Mark Gurman. In his Power On newsletter delivered on Sunday, Gurman said he expects the tech giant to hold an unveil event toward the end of this month and then release “at least some” of the new M4 machines on Friday, November 1. While the laptops are likely to retain their physical designs, the Mac Mini, which is reportedly getting variants with M4 and M4 Pro processors, is expected to see a long-overdue overhaul that will shrink the size of the machine, possibly making it as small as the Apple TV set-top box ... |

Joker sequel stumbles on box office debut
|
But it still took more than any other movie |
Joker: Folie à Deux was expected to open in North America with ticket sales in of between $50 million and $65 million across the weekend.

Variety described the start as “disastrous” for Warner Bros., which spent $200 million on making it. The early reviews for Joker: Folie à Deux have been pretty poor overall. On IMDb it currently has a 5.4 rating, and just 30% on Rotten Tomatoes’ Popcornmeter ... |
