Superman and Lois are joining The CW’s Arrowverse lineup next season, but Crisis on Infinite Earths already unleashed a major plot twist ahead of its premiere. The CW’s 5-hour event became the franchise’s biggest adventure as the DC TV shows changed the status quo to move the shared universe forward. Based on the iconic DC comic series of the same name, Crisis on Infinite Earths brought the current series together onto the same world known as Earth-Prime....

In Australia, the first that signalled its plans to enter the market was the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) when it announced in November it would begin offering customers the ability to buy, sell, and hold crypto assets through its mobile Commbank app. A pilot program of this feature is currently underway. Speaking to ZDNet, CBA head of blockchain and digital assets Sophie Gilder said the strategic move for the bank to roll out crypto services is being driven by the growing uptake of cryptocurrency by its customers....

The well-known jailbreak application Cydia has received a fairly notable update today, bringing the utility to version 1.1.10. The new version of the app makes it much easier to manage sources and packages, and brings a refreshed iOS 7-style icon as well as other fixes. Most notably, much of the functionality within the Manage tab has been dispersed to other parts of the app. Previously, there were three sections inside Manage, but the tab has been renamed Installed and simply houses what was previously in the “Packages” section....

When Apple launched the Watch, it also designed a new system font to go with it: San Francisco. The typeface was specifically designed to combine a clean look with readability on the small display of the Apple Watch. We exclusively revealed last week that Apple doesn’t intend to limit San Francisco to the watch: it instead plans to adopt the new typeface for Macs, iPhones and iPads. San Francisco is expected to replace Helvetica Neue as part of iOS 9 and OS X 10....

The Physical Web is an open source web specification from Google released last year with the aim to make interacting with smart devices in the real world as easy as clicking a link, just as we do on the web. Now with the company having released its Eddystone beacon technology and APIs for making this communication between devices in the same proximity easier, it’s integrating Physical Web directly into Chrome for iOS....

In December 2020, Cisco announced a wave of Webex new features to its videoconferencing service. This month, it is starting to roll out real-time translation as a test for more than 100 languages on Mac and other platforms. This feature is coming this month, with general availability planned for May. At first, Cisco expected to start testing real-time translation in February, but things were delayed until now. With this new feature, language won’t be a barrier anymore....

Clare Crawley was announced as The Bachelorette Monday on Good Morning America. Having first appeared on The Bachelor six years ago, her selection for the role is unconventional. Clare first appeared on Juan Pablo Galavis’ season of The Bachelor, finishing as the runner-up and famously telling the soccer player on her way out, “I thought I knew what kind of man you were. What you just made me go through, I would never want my children having a father like you....

Internet News reports Albert Chu, vice president of global marketing and alliances for mobile software developer, Access Systems, is over the moon at the new entente between mobile makers, carriers and developers. Apple has driven a liberalisation in the market that – realistically – has opened up opportunity across the whole sector. Chu said, “Our key customers are saying, ‘Make our phone like the iPhone’. There are a lot of things we’ve been trying to sell them in terms of touch and other ideas we’ve tried to peddle, but these are pretty conservative companies....

But I’m back in week four, and the amount of hopeful news is starting to accelerate and accumulate, which is hopeful unto itself. So, without further ado. Crisis: Trends I wasn’t sure where to put this one, but ultimately, because it involves nation-states, I put it here. French President Emmanuel Macron said that he got backing for a “world truce” from four of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council – that means France, the US, China, and the UK....

Apple is updating Apple Maps and Siri to display COVID-19 vaccine information and providers in the United States.

Apple Maps COVID-19 vaccine details The Apple Maps and Siri support for COVID-19 vaccine sites is powered by VaccineFinder.

In almost 300,000 cases each year, U.S. surgical patients develop a harmful or potentially deadly infection linked to their procedure. Those infections can happen in virtually any hospital under any doctor’s care, drastically altering a patient’s recovery. On average, a surgical site infection (SSI) can extend a hospital stay by up to 10 days and increase the chances of having to be readmitted to the hospital later by up to four times....

Warning: The following contains SPOILERS for Crisis on Infinite Earths. The Arrowverse’s Crisis on Infinite Earths reversed one of the unintended consequences that The Flash’s time-travel inflicted upon Arrow’s Lyla Michaels and John Diggle. The 5-part crossover event brought back Sara Diggle, John and Lyla’s infant daughter, who had been erased from existence and replaced with a son named John Jr. as a side-effect of “Flashpoint.” The season 3 premiere of The Flash found Barry Allen uncharacteristically happy, living a normal life with his still-living parents....

We’ve covered numerous noteworthy Cydia tweaks over time and most of them tackle the iPhone’s user interface, letting you customize your iOS gadget to death. Interestingly, only a handful of tweaks mess with the stock Maps app in iOS, which is strange considering that the iOS mapping experience, although great, in many areas pales in comparison to Android. The Speed for Maps tweak (via Funky Space Money), as the name suggests, adds a cool speedometer icon to the Maps app that feels as if it were integral to the experience....

The most famous among them are Symantec, McAfee, Web-sense, etc....

[Contains SPOILERS for Deadpool #28.] There are any number of valid and wonderful reasons to get married: romance, true love, an exchange of goods and services, a union between warring factions, “*&%#-blocking Dracula.” For Deadpool, however, his marriage to polyamorous succubus Shiklah also happens to be his most functional relationship ever. Sure, they tend to fight a lot and sometimes innocent bystanders (and cities) get caught in the crossfire. Throughout it all, though, the strange union betwixt Weapon X-based mercenary and Monster Metropolis queen has managed to defy all odds and even wound up feeling oddly saccharine (for Deadpool) at times....

Consumer Reports Sitting down? You might want to. The February issue of Consumer Reports will include the graphic above, clipped by Business Insider, that ranks numerous Android devices above the iPhone 5 in its “What’s Hot” February 2013 list. On every carrier, the Samsung Galaxy S3 ranks higher than the iPhone 5. Even the LG Optimus G and the Droid RAZRs top the iPhone on various carriers. Consumer Reports groups the top phones’ scores fairly closely, but we’re used to seeing the iPhone way out in front of the crowd....
