The leaked data was obtained after the hacker breached DH earlier this year, on March 10, 2020. At the time, DH owner Daniel Winzen told ZDNet the hacker breached his portal, stole its database, and then wiped all servers. On March 26, two weeks after the breach, DH shut down its service for good, urging users to move their sites to new dark web hosting providers. Around 7,600 websites – a third of all dark web portals – went down following DH’s shutdown....
Not much has been revealed about Steven Spielberg’s Halo TV show at Showtime, but it has been announced that the series’ story will not be based on any of the games and likely won’t premiere until 2020. The upcoming blockbuster series is an adaptation of the Xbox games that center on Master Chief, who leads humanity in a war against a race of aliens known as The Covenant. The Halo TV show was announced back in 2013 but wasn’t officially greenlit until this year when it was announced that Spielberg’s production company Amblin Entertainment, 343 Industries, and Showtime were ordering a 10-episode first season....
The young Han Solo film just began principal photography under the working title, Red Cup. For a project so seemingly ill-advised, it’s certainly doing a lot of things right. Disney hired directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the kings of ill-advised gems like The Lego Movie and 21 Jump Street to direct the project. Veteran Star Wars writer Lawrence Kasdan and his son are penning the script. The up-and-coming Alden Ehrenreich (Hail, Caesar!...
A job application hand-written by Apple cofounder Steve Jobs in 1973 has been put up for auction. Last time it sold, it went for over $175,000 … Auctioneers Charterfields provides the background. There is no indication of either the role for which he was applying, nor the name of the company. The skills section does, however, indicate a computing company. A single page signed job application from 1973 is being offered for sale by auction....
Well, this is interesting… Google is advertising on its Google Labs page an experimental tool which aims to liberate web developers from the confines of Adobe’s Flash platform. They are calling it Swiffy (sweet) and its sole purpose is to convert Flash SWF files to HTML5. But make no mistake about it – this is about Apple’s iOS gadgets. Google itself says Swiffy lets you “reuse Flash content on devices without a Flash player (such as iPhones and iPads)”....

If you’re looking to build a Hackintosh that can serve as a competent Windows gaming rig on the side, then a build powered by an Nvidia GPU is a good choice. In our most recent Hackintosh build, we paired an Intel i7 6700k with Nvidia’s fastest gaming GPU, the 1080 Ti. The results weren’t all that surprising. Performance was good in a macOS environment even when using Nvidia’s beta web drivers....
The Handmaid’s Tale season 3 is on the way, but what can fans expect from the new season? Based on Margaret Atwood’s bestselling dystopian novel of the same name, The Handmaid’s Tale follows Offred (Elisabeth Moss), handmaid to Commander Waterford (Joseph Fiennes) and his wife, Serena Joy (Yvonne Strahovski), under the totalitarian regime of Gilead in the United States.

Chuck Bass takes pride in his “bad boy” status, but we, on the other hand, find his behavior to be rather pathetic. Sure, his shameless actions might be plausible for the villainous character on a soap opera, but the fact of the matter is, his character is way too romanticized to be seen as the true antagonist of the series. Here, we will prove to Gossip Girl lovers just how terrible Chuck Bass really is....

Before we reunite with our favorite residents, we’re looking back at each season’s standout episode and comparing them against each other....
The Financial Times today highlights an issue purportedly plaguing a growing number of iPhone X users. The report explains that some users are unable to answer phone calls with their iPhone X because the display does not wake up while the phone is ringing, thus meaning they can’t access the accept and decline buttons… The report cites a growing number of complaints on Apple’s support forums. Since December, hundreds of iPhone X users have taken to the support forums trying to fix this issue....
When Disney bought Lucasfilm back in 2012, the intention was to immediately kick start the Star Wars universe again. Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens did just that in a big way. The film broke nearly every box office record in its path and introduced the world to a new cast of characters, but also featured the return of some familiar faces. One of the new faces that joined the franchise was Game of Thrones star Gwendoline Christie....
The Hallmark Channel recently pulled commercials featuring a same-sex couple kissing at their wedding which has caused a backlash from viewers as well as a #BoycottHallmark protest online. The Hallmark Channel is best known for producing a whole slew of new Christmas movies every year, featuring well-known actresses like Fuller House star Candace Cameron Bure and Mean Girls’ Lacey Chabert. Each holiday season, movies from The Hallmark Channel seem to get more and more popular, even though the channel has received flack for producing generic films which often have similar plots and storylines....
Just how scary (and violent) is the new Halloween movie? Halloween is a classic horror franchise and Michael Myers one of the biggest slasher icons of all time, and it’s fair to say the 2018 reboot more than honors that legacy. Halloween 2018 is a direct sequel to John Carpenter’s 1978 original, ignoring all nine previous sequels and remakes. Director David Gordon Green resurrects Jamie Lee Curtis’ Laurie Strode, now living in isolation fearing the return of non-brother Michael Myers in a Chekhov’s armored house....
As you would know, console commands and cheat codes are meant to be used for handling the game controls or tactics better than the standard method. Whereas cheat codes allow players to achieve necessary resources or perform any specific action straight away without any hard work. If we talk about the Green Hell game, the cheat codes can be used to slow down the gameplay or unlock craft items. It can be useful for those who don’t like hardcore gaming....

Back in 2018, the long-dormant Halloween franchise came back in a big way thanks to its latest installment. Simply titled Halloween, the new movie ignored every sequel and remake that came after John Carpenter’s 1978 horror classic and continued where it left off. After almost a decade, the original slasher killer Michael Myers returned to stalk his onscreen victims and instill fear in audiences. As simple as the premise of a masked man on a murder spree may be, the Halloween series is actually more complicated than expected....
