The 2025 Superman reboot is, by all accounts, a resounding success. Critics like it a lot, moviegoers are loving it, and it made bank during its opening weekend. It also scared the shit outta me during a couple action sequences. I can handle a lot of violence in films. I wouldn’t have seen four John Wick films and the Ballerina spin-off if death-by-library-book bothered me — instead, it makes me...

Well, I'm sorry to say the answer is: leave my posterior without pain after a long day of work.The kind of pain that popped up isn't something I spotted immediately. In fact, it's not even the type of pain I spotted after an hour. If you'd asked me what...

And one of the reasons why is surely the dominance of TSMC when it comes to manufacturing chips for the likes of Nvidia, AMD and, latterly, Intel. Which is why the company's latest record profits announcement matters.TSMC has just reported its...
