![]() ![]() On the Tom's Guide web browsing battery test, the new MacBook Air lasted an epic 14 hours and 41 minutes.Īpple declared its M1 chip would enable all-day battery life, and the company has hit that mark. Interestingly, the GFXBench Metal Aztec Ruins graphics benchmark (Universal) gave the Air and Pro practically similar scores: a 54 on High and 60 on Normal (both rounded down). The ZenBook 13 and XPS 13 (which could run that game at a slightly sharper 1080p) posted rates of 21 and 16 fps, respectively. When we benchmarked Sid Meier's Civilization VI: Gathering Storm (Intel) on the MacBook Air (where 1440 x 900 was the highest resolution supported), it ran at 37 frames per second, walloping the 7 fps score we got from the Intel MacBook Air and coming in slightly under the M1 MacBook Pro's 38 fps time. I started it off easy, running Bioshock 2 Remastered (at the native 2560 x 1600 resolution) and that game played smoothly, as rippling water flowed through the rooms I navigated, electro shocks hit enemies and all the underwater life outside the hallways I explored moved without a glitch. Our test MacBook Air has the 8-core GPU configuration, which (by the feel of it) could reshape the Mac in the minds of some gamers. The MacBook Pro came pretty close, with a 649. The MacBook Air scored a 653 on the PugetBench Photoshop (Intel) test, which beats the 588 from the XPS 13, but falls to the 743 from the ZenBook 13 (a rare win for the x86 crowd). The 1TB SSD in the MacBook Air we tested hit a read speed of 2692 MBps on the Black Magic Disk Speed Test (Intel), literally more than twice the 1,301.9 MBps read rate from the Intel MacBook Air. ![]() Those times obliterate those from the ZenBook 13 (17:51) and XPS 13 (18:22), as well as the 27:10 time from the Intel MacBook Air from earlier this year.Īpple also promised twice as fast storage speeds, and they delivered. On our Handbrake (Universal) video conversion test, which transcodes a 4K video to 1080p, the MacBook Air finished the test in 9 minutes and 15 seconds and the MacBook Pro took 7:44 (on a Beta version of Handbrake that's optimized for Apple silicon). The old Intel MacBook Air Y-series Intel CPU mustered only 2,738. The Air soundly beat the 5,084 from the ZenBook 13 and the 5,319 from the XPS 13 (both tested with the Intel Core i7-1165G7 CPU and 16GB of RAM), on the comparable Geekbench 5.2 test. The Air scored 5,962 on the Geekbench 5.1 (Intel) multicore test, which was practically in a dead-heat with the 5,925 from the M1 MacBook Pro. This MacBook Air? It feels like a Pro.Īnd let's see how that shakes out in benchmarks - and I'll note that not all of our tests were done with Universal versions of apps, and Intel versions aren't optimized for the M1. Before this, I was a bit skeptical, even with Apple's boasts of 3.5x improved performance vs the Intel MacBook Air released earlier this year, because I've always pushed my MacBooks to the limit, and needed a MacBook Pro, and not an Air, to do my work. ![]() This includes when I connected an external monitor. Most of the time, the MacBook Air with M1 felt - performance-wise - like it was identical (if not faster) than the 2020 Core i5 MacBook Pro I've used to test Big Sur, or the 2017 Core i7 MacBook Pro work computer I relied upon. ![]()

![]() ![]() Jai Courtney is another name who has extensive experience in the action genre. ![]() Kitsch’s television role on Friday Night Lights led to starring roles in action films John Carter and Battleship. The film also features Taylor Kitsch, as his best friend Ben Edwards. Pratt has already worked with Amazon Studios in a similar capacity in the military science fiction film The Tomorrow War.Ĭhris Pratt is not the only seasoned action veteran on the cast list. Pratt’s role as Andy Dwyer in the sitcom Parks and Recreation earned him a nomination for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series by the Critics Choice Television Award. Pratt, who leads action hero franchises like Guardians of the Galaxy and Jurassic World, is returning to where he got his start. The film juxtaposes images of the American flag and military uniforms with violence and destruction, and hints at the darker side of what Black Sabbath would call the “war machine.” The trailer ends in a dark fashion, with James Reece pulling out his signature Tomahawk threateningly At one point, Constance Wu’s character Katie Buranek encourages him “You’re not at war, you’re at home, there’s a difference.” To which Reece gruffly responds “Not anymore.” This underscores the idea that war follows you home. This is a fitting ethos for the trailer, which follows James Reece as he acclimates to being back at home. The trailer uses the musical conceit of Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs,” which condemns “politicians who hide themselves away from the violent repercussions of their actions," and who “treat people just like pawns in chess.” Throughout, we get flashes of the disastrous mission that left James Reece’s entire team dead and him with serious PTSD. There are plenty of guns, explosions, and a shirtless Taylor Kitsch. It features everything you might imagine from a military action thriller such as this one. The first teaser trailer for The Terminal List was released on May 18. Playing James Reece, a Navy SEAL who returns home as the only survivor of an ambush with increasingly mysterious circumstances, this time Pratt will bring his action star chops that he brought to countless big-screen roles to the small screen Pratt stars in The Terminal Listthe adaptation of Jack Carr’s best-selling novel. Now, coming off multiple films within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a starring role in the Jurassic World franchise, and a starring role in the Amazon Studios film The Tomorrow War, Pratt is returning to television. Some even questioned whether his turn as an action star would be fruitful. The actor, at the time known for his role as happy-go-lucky Andy Dwyer on the sitcom Parks & Recreation, was known for his comedic television role. The cast also includes Constance Wu, Taylor Kitsch and Riley Keough.When Chris Pratt was cast in Marvel’s 2014 superhero action comedy Guardians of the Galaxy, many were surprised. In his review of The Terminal List, The Hollywood Reporter’s chief television critic Daniel Fienberg employed a holiday-cookout analogy, writing, “It’s the entertainment equivalent of a charred hockey puck, with the same limited range of flavor and aesthetics.” This led the author to quip that “you call that the No. They put in the effort to make something special and make a show that speaks to them.’ And that 95 percent rating lets me know that we at least got close.”Ĭarr, who is an executive producer of the series alongside Pratt and Antoine Fuqua, read excerpts from a number of reviews and said that one critic asked what to even call a show like Terminal List. ![]() We made it for the soldier, sailor, airman and Marine that went downrange to Iraq and Afghanistan, so they could sit on the couch and say, ‘Hey, these guys put in the work. He continued, “The 95 percent viewer rating, audience rating, makes it all worth it. ![]() “It seems to have triggered quite a few of these critics.” “It falls right in line with everything that I understand about the current culture and climate in America right now,” Carr said. When asked for his take on this, Carr seemed to suggest that politics is to blame. 3' End-Credit Scenes Hint at a Future Beyond James Gunn's Trilogy ![]() ![]() ![]() And recently, I drove more than three miles past multiple gas stations to fill up my tank at Speedway.

With USB Network Gate, you can use one iOS or Android device connected to a Mac, Windows or Linux system, and share it seamlessly with other Mac, Windows and Linux clients, as if it was directly connected with them. For more information, you can also contact Eltima support.Ĭost-efficient mobile app development solution: When developing a robust mobile app, an actual mobile device may be required to be connected to more than one computer across different phases of development or testing.

It allows you to access remote USB devices (such as scanners, printers, flash drives, webcams and more), irrespective of the platform you’re using on the host and client devices. USB Network Gate is available for Macs, Windows PCs, Linux systems and even for Android devices. This takes away the hassle of repeated plugging and unplugging if you have to share the device among multiple computers. The USB device (mass storage drive, authentication key, smartphone, etc.) may be plugged in only to the host system, and other clients can connect to the host and access the device as if it was connected directly to the client system. USB Network Gate makes it easy to share USB devices over Network (LAN, WAN, Internet), without having to physically plug them into the respective devices. For example, if you have USB login configured in multiple computers and use one USB Key to log in to all the systems, its constant plugging and unplugging might eventually damage both the USB device and the port. But if you have multiple computers, sharing the same USB device between all of them can become rather inconvenient. From mass storage to internet dongles, USB serves as the ultimate plug and play interface supporting a wide range of applications. ![]() ![]() ![]() INDIANAPOLIS - The first Indy 500 victory for Josef Newgarden also was the richest in race history from a record 2023 purse of just more than $17 million. How the voters saw it: The 1936 Indy 500 drew steady but unspectacular support: While the race appeared only more than 60 percent of ballots, only two of its scores were above 80. Outside of a pit stop cycle, he led 96 of the final 112 laps. Winning move: Meyer started 28 th and took his first lead on Lap 89. … Wilbur Shaw led 51 consecutive laps (from Lap 32-82). Other contenders: Runner-up Ted Horn led 16 laps (from Lap 131-146). NBC Sports has ranked the Top 10 Indy 500s through a panel that judged through scores of 1-20 in five categories (with a total of 100 being perfect): quality of racing, memorable moments, strength of competition, historical impact and spectacle. In another historical quirk, Bill Cummings (who won the 1934 Indy 500) was left on the grid for the start in 1936, becoming the first driver unable to start the race in Indy 500 history. ![]() Cars were limited to 37.5 gallons of gasoline, which forced teams to work on engines that were slower and more efficient. The angle of the outside retaining wall was altered to avoid launching cars outside the track.

It’s among many traditions and legacies from the 1936 Indy 500: INDY 500 PRIMER: Questions and answers for the world’s biggest race Since 1956, the Indiana Dairy Association has compensated Indy 500 winners for including milk in their celebrations (currently a $10,000 payout). That caught the attention of a dairy industry executive who asked that milk be available annually to the winner. Meyer, who also won at the Brickyard in 1928 and ’33, was handed a bottle and took a big gulp in a lasting image that appeared in newspapers the next day. He asked for a glass of buttermilk, which he believed to be the best refreshment on a hot day (advice instilled by his mother). It was the swig seen around the world – and for decades to come at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.Īfter becoming the first three-time winner in Indy 500 history, Louis Meyer made an unusual request in victory lane.
