Sometimes controversial design grows on you, and sometimes those responsible for it simply retire it quietly, sensibly recognizing that it was never going to catch on.

Gone are the unusual split front lights, replaced by an altogether more … Continue reading

First Ocean’s 8 Trailer Released
Posted in: Today's ChiliIt’s no secret that Warner Bros. has been working on a new Ocean’s movie. It’s different from the previous movies in this franchise that starred the likes of George Clooney and Brad Pitt. The new Ocean’s Eight has an all-female lead cast in that all eight characters that are crucial to the story are female. The studio today released the first Ocean’s 8 trailer and it promises to be an entertaining flick.
Sandra Bullock plays the lead character called Debbie Ocean. She’s described as the “estranged sister” of Danny Ocean, who was played by George Clooney in the original Ocean’s movies.
The new movie has a star-studded cast. There’s Cate Blanchett, Rihanna, Anne Hathaway, Mindy Kaling, Sarah Paulson, Awkwafina, and the indomitable Helena Bonham Carter.
Bullock’s character is shown putting together a new heist crew that wants to steal the $150,000,000 necklace from Anne Hathaway’s character. The humor, pacing, and tone of Ocean’s 8 appears to be quite similar to the previous movies so fans will certainly appreciate that.
Ocean’s 8 is going to be released 11 years after the final Ocean’s movie starring the all-male lead cast was released. Matt Damon, who has appeared in previous films, will be making a cameo in Ocean’s 8. It’s unclear if Clooney or any other original cast members will be making one as well.
Ocean’s 8 is going to be released on June 8th, 2018.

If you’re interested in trying out the latest Instagram features before they’re rolled out to all users and happen to own an Android device, you’ll be delighted to find out that Instagram has now opened an alpha program for its Android app. What that means is that select users will be able to try out the new features and improvements that Instagram developers well before they’re released for all users across the globe.
An Instagram employee posted on the r/Android subreddit on Reddit looking for people willing to participate in the alpha program. A subreddit mod also confirmed that the poster does indeed work for Instagram so the offer is legit.
Those who would like to get a spot on the alpha program can use the Google Groups link to enroll. They have to enter their email to join the group.
Once that’s done, they will have to join the Instagram testing program on the Google Play Store. It’s easy to do that since it only requires the click of a button.
The alpha program will give participants access to new Instagram features before everyone else. However, they will likely have to put up with bugs that are not uncommon in the early stages of development.

The Axon 7 happens to be one of ZTE’s most popular smartphones. The company has good news for those who bought this handset. ZTE has confirmed that the Axon 7 Android 8.0 Oreo update release is going to take place soon. It’s already developing the Oreo update for the Axon 7. ZTE says that it’s going to have the update ready “as soon as possible.”
There aren’t a lot of devices from third-party OEMs out there that have been updated to Android 8.0 Oreo. Google released the latest iteration of its Android platform a few months ago and it has largely been limited to the company’s own handsets.
That’s not to say other manufacturers aren’t preparing the update for their handsets. Many, including the likes of Samsung, are running beta programs for the Oreo update that will be released for their flagship handsets in the coming weeks.
ZTE has now confirmed that it’s developing Android 8.0 Oreo for the Axon 7. It also says that it’s trying to get the update out to customers as soon as possible. The company does ask for some time to “perfect” the update.
The representative for ZTE confirmed this on a forum but didn’t provide a confirmed release date. Hopefully, it shouldn’t take more than a few weeks for the ZTE Axon 7 Android 8.0 Oreo update to arrive.
