After escaping relatively unscathed from the horror show that was Madame Web, Sydney Sweeney is going full scream queen this week in an actual horror flick, Immaculate. It’s one of this spring’s two nunsploitation flicks, and it’s beating The First Omen to theaters by two weeks. Sweeney also produced Immaculate, which casts her in the leading role as Sister Cecilia, a deeply religious young nun who is invited to live at a remote convent in Italy. Of course, Immaculate wouldn’t be a horror film if Cecilia’s new home was idyllic, and let’s just say that the movie’s name wasn’t randomly…

In the past couple of years, laptops have been released that I never thought would be possible. Whether it’s a foldable laptop like the ThinkPad X1 16 Gen 1, a fully modular gaming laptop like the Framework 16, or a laptop with a glasses-free 3D display, we’re in a golden era of design experimentation right now.

HP OmniBook 800CT Exploring the HP Omnibook 800CT First…

The tournament also marks Pandya’s comeback from a ‘freak’ ankle injury he picked up in…
