It is distinct to every device and allows you to secure your phone in the event of the theft immediately.

The first eight digits contain information about the device origin details and product id, while the mobile developer chooses the remaining digits....

Straightaway, PowerShell is more of a developer or Sysadmin stuff and was never created for the ordinary Windows user because they have the Common Prompt to play with (ouch 🤐). In short, PowerShell also runs cmdlets in addition to the Command Prompt commands. However, we aren’t here to differentiate PowerShell from Command Prompt. Instead, we’ll look at one Microsoft-recommended way that can tell you the PowerShell version. And though there are other methods to do it all over the internet, they won’t work every time in all situations....

While working on Nexus, I encountered an issue while modifying Genesis theme files using the WordPress Editor. This is how it looked seem. As usual, I went through the following troubleshooting steps. Check Theme Permission One of the first things you got to check the theme files and folder permissions. If you are running on shared hosting then mostly it would be alright. However, if using VPS or Cloud then you got to ensure the same user owns theme files as web server (Nginx or Apache HTTP) running....

Every Android phone comes with many pre-installed apps, and as you keep using it, you only end up adding more to it. These apps often contain personal and sensitive information about you. Even if you keep your phone password-protected, chances are that you have to let certain people use it, such as your parents, children, spouse, and even younger siblings. However, that does not mean you need to compromise your privacy....

It allows you to keep track of your code changes, create different code branches, collaborate with other developers, to name a few.

Almost every internet user utilizes the search engine in one way or the other. If it weren’t for search engines, you probably wouldn’t be able to dive through millions of web resources at a glance. And, it is no surprise that it is also the best way to distribute malware. Indexing a Malicious Website No Longer Works There are thousands of malicious websites among billions of web pages listed on Google, Bing, and several other search engines....

Do you also love the convenience of connected devices to make your everyday tasks like shopping and bill payment easy? Well, for sure, you may not enjoy the potential fraud risks that come with this convenience. The rising number of connected “things” in users’ lives means the threat from unsecured devices increases as well. In the future, the Internet of Things (IoT) is likely to merge the physical and virtual worlds in specific ways that are currently difficult to grasp....

NumPy is a powerful library for scientific computing in Python; it provides N-dimensional arrays that are more performant than Python lists. One of the common operations you’ll perform when working with NumPy arrays is to find the maximum value in the array. However, you may sometimes want to find the index at which the maximum value occurs. The argmax() function helps you find the index of the maximum in both one-dimensional and multidimensional arrays....

Hulu’s list of new releases for April 2022 is highlighted by FX limited series Under the Banner of Heaven. This adaptation of the non-fiction book by John Krakauer stars Andrew Garfield as a Mormon police detective whose faith is shaken when investigating a murder involving the church. It’s not all just FX on the TV side of things for Hulu this month, however. The streamer is debuting second seasons of its series The Hardy Boys (April 6) and Woke (April 8)....

For such a joyous fantasy of a movie, there’s a curious hint of melancholy which hangs over In the Heights. From the word go, the film version of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s musical is unapologetically a love letter to Washington Heights and the largely Latinx community who live there. Yet that’s not where the movie begins; we open on Anthony Ramos’ Usnavi and his megawatts smile seemingly living a million miles from home....

With his roles in Star Wars and Blade Runner seemingly concluded, Ford now turns to his other iconic character: Indiana Jones. Indeed, 14 years on from the release of Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, the 78-year-old actor is now filming what could very well be his final outing as the whip-cracking archaeologist and pulp adventurer. Production is kicking off in the UK, at Bamburgh Castle, a fortress located in the northeast coast of England that dates back to the 11th century....

Having met his servants in ‘The Trial of Elizabeth Gadge’ and ‘The Harrowing’, it was only a matter of time before Old Scratch turned up on Inside No. 9. This series has always had one cloven hoof dipped in the fantasy-horror genre (‘Séance Time’, ‘Tempting Fate’, ‘Dead Line’, ‘Death Be Not Proud’, ‘The Stakeout’), so it’s ripe for a visit from the devil himself. ‘How Do You Plead?’ was a choice vehicle, both for the character, and for Sir Derek Jacobi, whose guest performance was perhaps the best this show has had....

Horror films have made a spiritual ghetto out of the universe which lies between dream, sleep and death. They focus on the malevolent realm of incubi, succubae and the Red-Lipstick-Face Demon. The map to the Further is not limited to shadowy studies. Many mystical practices are divided into black and white magic out of fear and superstition, but there can be room for both. Insidious starts off like a fairly typical haunted house movie....

Based on recent events, however, the pair have their work cut out for them. Before they can even start to produce and release the films and TV shows that they are developing, there are still four more DC movies on the schedule for 2023. And that’s where the trouble seems afoot. Online movie ticket seller Fandango released a survey conducted among users of the top 10 most anticipated blockbusters (of course, that’s assuming they make “blockbuster” money) of next year....

Make no mistake, Phoenix hasn’t quite gone the post-Spectre Daniel Craig, “I’d rather slash my wrists” route regarding the possibility of reprising his Joker title role. In fact, he still seems somewhat intrigued by the notion of tackling a prospective Joker 2, which was the center of conflicting late 2019 trade reports about a studio green light, which were subsequently debunked by director Todd Phillips. However, with sequel rumors having been recently revived, the star’s latest comments on the matter, made to The Playlist at this week’s New York Film Festival, seem to belie the possibility… at least for the immediate future....

Prior to the recent interview, Fisher began drawing public attention in July to what he has called a toxic work environment on the Justice League reshoots. And he singled Whedon out as “gross, abusive, and unprofessional” on the set. This week though, he gave his first anecdotal example of questionable behavior when he told Forbes he heard this summer from another source that Whedon “ordered that the complexion of an actor of color be changed in post-production because he didn’t like the color of their skin tone....

Killing Eve Season 4 Episodes 7 and 8 Killing Eve ends its four-season run in a double-episode finale that is so entirely out of step with the final three minutes that it’s hard to even consider them together. In the end, the finale will be remembered for the rushed, half-baked ending that many fans will see as a betrayal as it takes the easy way out. Using death and trauma as a stand-in for prestige and seriousness of purpose is pervasive issue in the era of Peak TV, but it’s especially pernicious where it intersects with tropes that are harmful toward marginalized groups, like “Bury Your Gays....
