Whiile it is a reliable and stylish fitness tracker, the Fitbit Ionic may have seemed anemic as a smartwatch.

I am currently installing the update with a Windows 10 PC connected directly to the Fitbit Ionic using the companion app. I'll post impressions as soon as I've spent some time with the new OS.

Available throught the Fitbit app on Android, iOS and Windows, the update adds more than 60 apps now available across a wide range of categories, 100+ clock faces, and enhanced performance.

Netflix confirms sixth season for ‘House of Cards’ sans Kevin Spacey

 

It seems House of Cards producers have finally worked out how to make the sixth season of the political drama to work. Netflix’s chief content officer Ted Sarandos just confirmed that the original series will be coming back to its service with an eight-episode season in early 2018. Netflix previously announced it wasn’t bringing the show back if they kept its star Kevin Spacey, who has sexual assault allegations against him. With Spacey out, the upcoming season will center on Robin Wright’s Claire Underwood character.

Is there a Quentin Tarantino ‘Star Trek’ movie in our future?

Quentin Tarantino is known for his love of genre films but the director has steered clear of gigantic film franchises. However, that might change soon. Deadline reports that Tarantino pitched to producer J.J. Abrams his original idea for a Star Trek movie, which he could possibly direct. The report says the pair plan to assemble screenwriters to develop the concept into a screenplay.

The move makes sense as both filmmakers have big projects they’re working on: Tarantino is set to start shooting his next film, which is a drama set in Los Angeles around the time of the Charles Manson murders, while Abrams is working on Star Wars: Episode IX. With the idea basically a concept at this point, we can’t even say what it’ll be about. But we’re wondering if a Tarantino-led Trek film would be something yoou’d like to see?
