Netflix cancels 'Luke Cage' a week after dropping 'Iron Fist'

Bad news for Luke Cage comes on the same day Netflix premiered season three of Daredevil, which was the first of its Defenders TV shows to launch in a partnership with Disney and Marvel. Additional seasons of Jessica Jones and The Punisher have already been ordered, but with Disney set to premiere its own streaming service next year, it seems like the two companies are already pulling further apart when it comes to licensing content.

Tim Cook speaks out.

Apple CEO calls on Bloomberg to retract China surveillance report

Earlier this month, Bloomberg reported that San Jose-based server company Super Micro installed surveillance micro-chips in the Chinese data center hardware of up to 30 companies, including Amazon and Apple.

2019 Audi A8 review: An evolution in luxury and tech

The A8 is Audi's premier sedan. With it, the automaker is introducing an enormous amount of tech. Bumper to bumper, the car is dripping with new features. There’s an updated infotainment system that’s easier to use, new driver assists with help from a laser scanner, plus suspension that can lift or lower the car on the fly for comfort or safety.

You can still order it ‘off menu’ for an extra $5,000.

Tesla shelves the full self-driving option you couldn't use

Ever since Tesla hinted at its autonomous future, there's been a "Full Self-Driving Capability" checkbox on the order page for its cars -- spend several grand and your car would one day steer itself. It has yet to materialize, though, and now Tesla has removed the option from its site.

Is it time to upgrade?
