Tuning Mysql System Variables For High Performance

Other things being equal, the level of comfort a developer has with the underlying database defines their seniority level. Little database and little coding experience = junior developer; little database and good coding experience = mid-level developer; good database and good coding experience = senior developer. It’s a harsh reality that even devs with 6-8 years under their belt struggle to explain the intricacies of the query optimizer and prefer to look heavenwards when asked about database tuning....

Wakanda Forever Box Office Proves Superhero Movie Fatigue Is Overstated

Watch Dogs Legion Review

Legion opens with Dalton Wolfe, an operative from DedSec, the hacker group featured in the previous two games, dispatched beneath the Houses of Parliament to defuse bombs set up by the rival hacker group Zero Day. (Apparently every story involving terrorists and London needs to reference the Gunpowder Plot in some way.)

What If Episode 7 Review Party On Thor Party On Loki

In episode 7 of Marvel’s What If…?, ‘What If… Thor Were an Only Child?’, we get to find out what would have happened if Odin had decided to return the wee babby Loki to his Frost Giant family instead of keeping him, and Thor had grown up believing he was an only child. I’m phrasing it that way because, y’know, Hela still exists. Lest we forget her majesty. It’s a fun, fluffy episode that ends with a terrific cliffhanger that seems to set up the finale of this consistently entertaining animated series, and gives us plenty to talk about until it arrives....

Wheel Of Time Trailer Celebrates The Women Who Protect The World

So why is someone called “the Dark One” pursuing a small group of friends who look much less imposing than the robed women that appear prominently throughout the trailer? Book readers may recognize young Rand Al’Thor (Josha Stradowski), Mat Cauthon (Barney Harris), and Perrin Aybara (Marcus Rutherford) looking relatively carefree in the clips in which they appear, but there’s little doubt that their simple life is about to be irrevocably disrupted....

Where Does Dino Fury Take Place In Power Rangers Continuity

For years Power Rangers basically had one continuity. Sure it was a little wonky and things didn’t quite all fit together but all the seasons basically took place in one universe. Then Power Rangers RPM happened. At first it was assumed to be a series set far in the future but was confirmed in its team-up with Power Rangers Samurai that no, RPM’s post apocalyptic world was its own continuity....

Where The Men In Black Sequels Went Wrong

Nearly 25 years later, there have been three follow-ups if you count 2019’s failed attempt at a semi-reboot within the Men in Black franchise. There’ve also been action figures, video games, a cartoon series, and a theme park ride at Universal Studios. And yet, to date there has never been a Men in Black adventure to capture the charm and ingenuity of that first movie. Sure, Men in Black II made money, but a quick perusal of its Rotten Tomatoes score—currently at 39 percent while the original sits at 92 percent—tells you how it was received, critically....

Why Diablo Immortal May Already Be Doomed

Diablo Immortal is the latest, controversial entry in the legendary Diablo franchise, one specifically designed to cater to mobile gamers. However, according to a new report, a gigantic chunk of the title’s target audience might never get to play it, spelling doom for the fledgling game. Even though Diablo Immortal launched stateside on June 2, it has yet to release in the Asia-Pacific region. Initially, Blizzard and its overseas co-development partner, Chinese tech company NetEase, planned for a June 23 debut in China, Japan, Korea, and the rest of the region, but then on June 19, Blizzard announced the game would be delayed in order to “optimize” the experience....

Why Ethan Hawke First Said No To The Black Phone

The Black Phone is the kind of intimate horror tale that Derrickson has done his best work with in films like Sinister and The Exorcism of Emily Rose, and it’s also got the added pedigree of being based on a short story by celebrated genre author Joe Hill. But there was one problem when the picture started coming together: Hawke didn’t want to do it at first. “I felt really proud of Sinister and wanted to work with [Derrickson] again,” the actor tells us on the phone....
