Like I told you last week, the first half of January lacked any exciting trailers, but that was about to change. And that’s exactly what happened. In a matter of days, we saw not one, but two Spider-Man: Far From Home trailers — yes, the international version does count. Moreover, John Wick fans will be excited to see the first footage for Chapter 3. And then there’s the new Ghostbusters to talk about.

However, when it comes to new movies, it’s going to be a rather boring week at the box office, with M. Night Shyamalan’s Glass being the only blockbuster-sized movie launching this week.

The 10 best video games of 2018

%name The 10 best video games of 2018 by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

2018 felt like a turning point for this era of video games. We’re undoubtedly closer to the next generation of video game consoles than we are to the last, and there’s a chance that 2018 was the last year before the PS4 and Xbox One begin to wind down as developers ramp up for new platforms. But the good news is that, with over five years of experience under their belts, studios are able to push these consoles to their limits.

Back in 2013, when the PS4 and Xbox One launched, we could only dream of games like Spider-Man, God of War, and even Sea of Thieves existing. But this generation may very well have peeked in 2018, and since there’s no telling what 2019 will look like, it’s worth taking a step back and appreciating that.

These are 10 of the biggest TV shows ending this year

%name These are 10 of the biggest TV shows ending this year by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The showrunners and creative teams behind many of our favorite shows don’t always get the luxury of an advance warning when the network decides to pull the plug on their series. Sometimes it’s a sudden, surprise decision, forcing a creative shift that doesn’t always work with an unexpected imposed deadline. The alternative, of course, is plenty of time to script a satisfying conclusion for a series that provides enough time to stick the landing before a sign-off for good, as is the case for the titles below. Many of the biggest franchises on TV — like HBO’s fantasy series about, you know, some warring kingdoms and an iron throne — have had plenty of time to telegraph that the end is in store. For others, well, read on for a rundown of what’s going to leave your TV for good this year, and when.

How a dangerous piece of Android malware snuck into the Google Play store

%name How a dangerous piece of Android malware snuck into the Google Play store by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Security researchers from Trend Micro recently unearthed a piece of Android malware known as Anibus that managed to sneak into the Google Play Store with a little bit of creativity. The malware in question was found on two separate apps, though neither of them were widely downloaded.

The way the apps managed to get on the Google Play Store is actually quite clever. In an effort to evade detection from emulators designed to detect behavior associated with malware, the malicious apps were uploaded to the Google Play Store but remained dormant unless motion was detected. Once motion was detected, the payload would spring into action.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella confirmed during a media event earlier this week that Microsoft will soon launch a Microsoft 365 subscription service for consumers, following reports that suggested such a move was in the making. Microsoft 365 isn’t exactly new, as it has been available to business users since 2017. However, the new product targets commercial consumers who presumably already have access to a computer of some sort.

Tesla to slash workforce by 7% in effort to boost profits

%name Tesla to slash workforce by 7% in effort to boost profits by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

To say that Tesla has been unprofitable for the majority of its existence may be truthful, but it isn’t exactly fair. As a relatively new automotive upstart, Tesla for quite some time wasn’t so much focused on profits as it was with spending boatloads of cash on growth, investing in itself, and boosting production. Wall Street, though, isn’t inclined to give a company a seemingly endless amount of time to turn a profit, which is to say Tesla over the past few quarters has been under a lot of pressure to demonstrate that it can be profitable.

Lo and behold, Tesla during the 2018 September quarter did just that. When the dust settled, Tesla posted a quarterly net income of $312 million. It’s not a staggering amount by any means, but it was nonetheless a symbolic victory for Tesla and proof that the mass market Model 3 was capable of helping the company turn a corner.

%name ‘Bandersnatch’ will be the first of many choose your own adventures on Netflix by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Netflix debuted something special last month: An interactive movie where you make choices for the main character. Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is the name of the choose-your-own adventure film — an adventure that’s just crazy enough to warrant inclusion in the Black Mirror universe. The streaming service confirmed that Bandersnatch is going to be the first of various pieces of interactive content in the coming years.

“You should anticipate we’ll do more of those [interactive shows] as we start to explore that format,” Netflix chief product officer Greg Peters said during the company’s earnings report on Thursday, Business Insider reports. It’s unclear, however, when and what shows will allow viewers to decide what will happen next.

Thanks to a live event hosted by NetherRealm Studios, we’ve now gotten an early look at gameplay footage from the next installment in one of the goriest and most violent fighting game franchises of them all — Mortal Kombat 11, which is set to launch April 23 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC.

Among the new details that have been revealed, customization enhancements mean players will get to craft some of their own moves and change up their look, and we’re also getting new characters to join some old favorites along with a new storyline. And the classic “finish him” fatality moves are back, as well.
