It’s been a little more than six years now since NBC’s beloved workplace mockumentary The Office broadcast its Season 9 series finale. Since that time, the series about a regional office for a fictional paper supply company has seen its fandom only continue to swell. Open up Instagram, and you’ll find an endless number of The Office meme accounts. Much to the consternation of Netflix users, NBC is pulling the series from Netflix at the end of next year and bringing it to its forthcoming streamer. It was and remains a hot commodity.

Meanwhile, two key stars of the show — Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey, the actresses who played Pam Beesly and Angela Martin, respectively — are about to launch their own Office-themed podcast that will take fans on a ride down memory lane.

Act surprised: iPhone 11 Pro obliterates Note 10+ and every other Android phone in performance tests

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

We’ve now one day away from seeing Apple open up preorders for its next-generation iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max smartphones. The new iPhone lineup was finally unveiled earlier this week, putting an end to all of the leaks and rumors that had been flooding the internet for months. Interestingly, this time around much of what we heard leading up to the event turned out to be wrong, and there were actually some surprises for Apple fans when the new iPhones were officially unveiled. What’s more, all of the iPhone 11 Pro renders and dummy models we saw leading up to the event were packed full of mistakes, so even the design came as a pleasant surprise — we can’t even remember the last time a new iPhone’s exact design wasn’t leaked months ahead of its debut.

While there were indeed plenty of things about the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max that surprised us, a new tidbit was just uncovered that shouldn’t come as a surprise at all. The first benchmark test scores from a production iPhone 11 Pro were just discovered online, and they absolutely obliterate every single Android flagship phone on the market.

We’re looking at a massive improvement compared to last year’s models, as well as a new default battery charger for the Pro models that supports faster speeds than before.

Woman falls into ‘semi-coma’ after using mercury-tainted face cream

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

A woman from Sacramento is now in what is being described as a “semi-comatose state” after experiencing a severe reaction to skin cream that was tainted with mercury. The product, which was reportedly imported from Mexico, was apparently contaminated at some point during the distribution process.

The use of the cream, which is branded as Pond’s, resulted in methylmercury poisoning, which is incredibly serious and potentially life-threatening. Sacramento County issued a warning, noting that the cream traveled “through an informal network” before it was purchased, making it difficult to determine where and when it was tainted with mercury, and complicating the search for similar dangerous products.

As if Breaking Bad fans weren’t excited enough for El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie, the Jesse Pinkman-centric movie sequel to the hit AMC series, debuting on Netflix October 11, the streamer has just released a new teaser trailer that presents an emotional, intense look back at the arc that the character took over the course of the show.

You can check out the teaser above, which is just over three minutes long and perfectly sets up what we’re in store for in El Camino — a look at Jesse once he’s finally free of Walter White and all the pain that association caused Jesse over Breaking Bad’s 62 episodes.
