‘Sinners’ Gets Most Oscar Nominations Ever

‘Sinners’ Gets Most Oscar Nominations Ever

Sinners’ remarkable run hasn’t finished just yet.

Ryan Coogler’s genre-busting drama amassed 16 Oscar nominationsthis morning, the most for any movie in history — topping the previous record shared by 1950’s All About Eve, 1997’s Titanic and 2016’s La La Land. The tally includes a major showing above the line — with nods in best picture, lead actor (Michael B. Jordan), supporting actor (Delroy Lindo), supporting actress (Wunmi Mosaku), director and original screenplay (both Coogler) — and indicates serious strength opposite presumed front-runner One Battle After Another, which runs close behind with double-digit nominations and the winner of best-picture prizes from the Critics Choice and Golden Globe Awards.

Trump’s Claims About Greenland – FactCheck.org

Prior to announcing on Jan. 21 that he has reached a “framework of a future deal” on Greenland with the secretary general of NATO, President Donald Trump had insisted that the United States needed to acquire Greenland for national security reasons — and at first, he wouldn’t rule out potentially taking the territory over by force.

In a Jan. 21 speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Trump said, “I don’t want to use force; I won’t use force.”

Throughout his initial push to claim Greenland for the U.S., Trump made several claims about the island in the Arctic, which is home to about 56,000 people, including statements questioning Denmark’s documented ownership of Greenland and statements suggesting that the U.S. needs “ownership to defend” Greenland. Some of his claims are false.

In this story, we’ll present what the president has said and the facts.

Apple FaceTime Eye Contact feature hit by patent troll in EU court

Apple has been accused of infringing on a European patent covering gaze correction, the feature used to correct a user’s eye line in FaceTime calls.

Apple is frequently the subject of patent infringement lawsuits, often over major technology features such as its continued battle with Masimo over the Apple Watch. However, sometimes it is caught out by attempts to sue over its smallest features.

In a lawsuit that started via a complaint with the Unified Patent Court on December 5, EyesMatch accuses Apple of infringing patent EP2,936,439, reports IP Fray. At the same time, EyesMatch is also taking on Nvidia over the same patent.
