This inside joke-filled, PG-13 ‘Deadpool 2’ trailer is what everyone needs today

%name This inside joke filled, PG 13 ‘Deadpool 2’ trailer is what everyone needs today by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

It all began when Fox asked Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds to do a PG-13 version of the movie. Ryan said no. Fox asked again. And again. And again. Finally, after saying no since 2006, the thespian who portrays the Merc with the Mouth did an about-face. He would go for it, but on two conditions, he explained to Deadline: First, part of the proceeds have to go to charity. “Second, I wanted to kidnap Fred Savage. The second condition took some explaining …”

And now, behold: we have a trailer previewing the results. It’s a PG-13-ified trailer for Once Upon A Deadpool. Filtered, as the movie promises, “through the prism of childlike innocence.” Which is another way of saying — Deadpool 2 has been redone to give it a PG-13 treatment.

This could be our first look at the Galaxy S10’s revolutionary display

%name This could be our first look at the Galaxy S10’s revolutionary display by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

In addition to giving us an early look at the foldable phone it has been teasing for months, Samsung also announced a multitude of displays at its developer conference two weeks ago. Both the Infinity-U and Infinity-V displays had tiny notches, the Infinity-O display had a small hole cut into the corner, and the New Infinity display appeared to be a true edge-to-edge display without any holes, notches, or cut-outs marring the glass.

Samsung didn’t specify which of the display types might appear on its future handsets, but the consensus seems to be that the upcoming Galaxy S10 will be equipped with the Infinity-O display. We have already seen a few mock-ups, giving us an idea of what that might look like, but now the display itself appears to have leaked.

%name Best Black Friday deals on Apple gear: Discounts on iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac, and iPad by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

It’s the Black Friday week, folks, which means many of this year’s hot tech deals are already available online, as various retailers are hosting extended sales events spanning well beyond Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Apple a few days ago published its 2018 holiday gifts ideas, but the company isn’t offering any spectacular sales of its own. Apple products including iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and AirPods are among the most coveted gadgets of the holiday shopping season, so all the other major retailers have planned a slew of deals on Apple gear this year, just like in previous years.

In what follows below, you’ll see plenty of deals that cover some of the season’s newest products, including the iPhone XS and iPhone XR, as well as the 2018 MacBook Air. You’ll also find deals on older Apple gear, which is still worth considering as these devices are priced significantly lower than before.

Reports of iPhone order cuts overlook a few key issues

%name Reports of iPhone order cuts overlook a few key issues by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The chorus of reports regarding a drop in iPhone orders continues to grow louder. While we previously saw reports claiming that Apple recently slashed its orders for the iPhone XR amidst lower than anticipated demand, The Wall Street Journal is now reporting that Apple in recent weeks told its manufacturing partners to trim orders across all models of its 2018 iPhone lineup.

Now is this a reason to panic or a serious cause for concern? Truthfully, it’s too soon to tell. As the Journal casually suggests, the issue may not solely be related to a sudden drop in demand as much as it may center on the inherent difficulty involved with predicting demand for three brand new devices. Recall, Apple’s 2018 iPhone lineup is the most varied lineup from the company we’ve ever seen.

Amazon has secret Black Friday deals right now on the Sonos Play:1 and Playbar

Posted on by
%name Amazon has secret Black Friday deals right now on the Sonos Play:1 and Playbar by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Sonos announced its deals for Black Friday 2018 last week, and we have good news and bad news if you missed it. The good news is that the company is offering sweet discounts on the Sonos Beam, Sonos One, and Sonos SUB speakers. The bad news is that the company isn’t offering discounts on any other speakers. If you’re looking for discounts on two of Sonos’ best-selling speakers ever — the Playbar sound bar and Play:1 — you won’t find anything on the Sonos website. As it turns out, however, Amazon already has early Black Friday deals live right now on both of these great speakers.

The Playbar sound bar sells for $699 on its own on the Sonos website and from all of Sonos’ retail partners. But for the same $699 on Amazon, you can now get the Sonos Playbar TV Soundbar with Sonos Wall Mount Kit + $50 Amazon Gift Card. That effectively drops the price to $649, plus you get a free OEM wall mount! If you’re looking for a deal on the Play:1, you can snag a Two Room Set with Sonos Play:1 + $30 Amazon Gift Card for $298, the same amount you would pay for two Play:1 speakers from Sonos. That makes the price just $268, or $81 less than you’ll pay for one Apple HomePod.

Sonos Playbar TV Soundbar with Sonos Wall Mount Kit + $50 Amazon Gift Card

  • Playbar complements HD television screens with crisp and powerful sound from nine amplified speaker drivers. Wirelessly streams all your favorite music services too.
  • Playbar syncs wirelessly with other Sonos speakers so you can listen to TV or music in perfect sync, throughout your home.
  • Playbar has simple two-cord setup. One for power and one for the TV. Control from your existing TV remote, or wirelessly connect on the Sonos app from your smart device.
  • Wall Mount makes Playbar easy to install to any wall with pegs in precisely the right place.
  • Wall Mount allows for placement horizontally above or below your TV
  • Add even more Sonos speakers to experience wireless audio throughout your home.

Sonos Playbar TV Soundbar with Sonos Wall Mount Kit + $50 Amazon Giftcard: $649.00 (incl. gift card value)

Two Room Set with Sonos Play:1 + $30 Amazon Gift Card

  • Works with Alexa for voice control (Alexa device sold separately)
  • Fill two separate rooms with different music, or link them together to hear the same song in both. Great surround speakers for your Sonos home theater, too
  • Versatile, compact fit. Place them wherever you want and enjoy rich, room-filling sound
  • Streams all your favorite music services like Amazon Music Unlimited, Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music and more
  • Easy 10-minute wi-fi set up. No Bluetooth pairing problems or interruptions
  • Connects wirelessly to Sonos speakers in other rooms so you can expand your Home Sound System when you’re ready
