From the last decade, Netflix has been a helpful platform for veteran filmmakers and up-and-coming artists to partner in creating films. This also applies to animation, as the streaming service effectively established its animation division and branched out with acclaimed projects like Bojack Horseman, Big Mouth, and Tuca & Bertie. Even with these quality animated shows on Netflix, they should not overshadow the service’s animated films. Thus, this list will rank the Netflix original animated films....

It’s no secret that Netflix has been a dominant streaming service, and part of the reason is that they continue to produce a plethora of original content. This includes movies and television shows, and there are lots of Netflix Originals to go around for people of any taste.

While most television lovers will be anticipating their favorites returning, not every new Netflix show can be as good as the rest....

Apple alerted developers to some App Store price adjustments earlier in the week and the alternative price tier details have now been posted. Apple has added other alternative price tiers in the past, but what’s interesting with these changes in particular is is that they are specifically targeted at offering really low price options for apps in a select few countries.

The premise found Deschanel’s teacher Jess moving into a loft with all-male roommates following a bad breakup, and the series followed her growing friendships with each of them. Rather than being just another generic sitcom, New Girl quickly developed a devoted following due to its sharp writing and comic performances....

The New York Times announced today that it is launching a new HTML5-based web app accessible to iPad users at app.nytimes.com.

The New York Times also already has a similar HTML5 app available in the Chrome Web Store....

The New York Times said earlier this week that it had declined to join the upcoming Apple News subscription service. The Washington Post has reportedly made the same decision.

Apple is said to be keeping 50% of subscription revenues and be splitting the balance between all the publishers on a pro-rata basis according to the sources customers read....

As Gizmodo observed, Apple puts a lot of thought into product design, but seems to forget everything it knows when it comes to power adapters (with one exception). The standard Mac adapter sticks out about half a mile from the wall, which can be a pain when the socket is behind a sofa. Ten One Design has a solution in the form of Blockhead. Blockhead is a side-facing plug adapter that works with all of Apple’s MacBook and iPad chargers, reducing the distance the plug sticks out of the wall from 3....

‘HD audio’ has been a buzzword for the last few years, as Apple and several record labels have been working on higher-resolution audio formats to repackage and resell older music.

If it is clear, it calls out to Reddit posts to find the IP addresses of possible servers to callback too. Although these posts have been deleted, it’s not hard for the people behind the exploit to repost them at a later time....

On Christmas week, Netflix is leaving holiday content behind and instead is bringing another comedy special, the second season of a sci-fi series, and the second season of a psychological thriller.
