How Avengers Infinity War Sets Up Ant Man The Wasp

Warning: SPOILERS Below For Avengers: Infinity War! - Ant-Man & The Wasp receives a bit of mild set up in Avengers: Infinity War. Hitting theaters this July, the sequel directed Peyton Reed, who helmed 2005’s Ant-Man, actually takes place before the events of Infinity War, which helps explain the absence of Ant-Man from the big Avengers team-up. In Captain America: Civil War, Scott Lang turned out to be an impact player when the Falcon recruited him to fight for Team Cap, but the shrinking superhero ended up paying a heavy price for getting involved in the Avengers’ breakup....

Homekit Compatible Smart Buttons Are Kind Of Addictive Flic 2

When I saw that Flic HomeKit-compatible smart buttons were available, I had to take them for a spin. Second-generation Flic smart home buttons now have HomeKit compatibility, along with multi-color LEDs to indicate the status of the device they control. The original Flic buttons from Shortcut Labs could control a reasonably wide range of devices — including Ikea, Nanoleaf, Lifx, Lightify, Philips Hue, Sonos, Spotify, and WeMo — but HomeKit support now makes them suitable for a much wider range of smart home products…...

How Crisis On Infinite Earths Ends In Dc Comics

The ending of Crisis on Infinite Earths in DC Comics could provide clues as to how the TV version of the story will wrap up in the Arrowverse. The first three installments of the five-part event aired in December 2019, with the last two chapters (Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow) releasing in January. Since the state of the DC Universe is very different from the Arrowverse, there are some obvious differences between the two crossovers; however, so far, Crisis has been a fairly accurate interpretation of the 1985 – 1986 miniseries....

Homekit Compatible Window Blinds Via Hunter Douglas Update

Although I do generally have a rule that smart home tech has to be HomeKit-compatible, there have been a few exceptions here and there. HomeKit-compatible window blinds were one of these, because the only option available at the time was just crazy money for the number we needed. We did still get iPhone-controlled blinds, with HomeKit support promised down the line. Alexa support arrived first, which gave me an interesting insight into how the two ecosystems compared – but then HomeKit support finally landed for Hunter Douglas blinds …...
