Hollywood star Matt Damon has revealed a few tricks that Netflix plays to keep viewers hooked to the app. Appearing on The Joe Rogan Experience with Ben Affleck, Matt shared how the streamer has started asking filmmakers to get characters in movies to speak the plot out loud multiple times, keeping the distracted viewer hooked.

(Getty Images via AFP) He also shared how the treatment of action movies has changed. How Netflix and other streamers are changing movies “The standard way to make an action movie that we learned was, you usually have three set pieces. One in the first act, one in the second, one in the third,” Matt Damon said. “You spend most of your money on that one in the third act. That’s your finale. And now they’re like, ‘Can we get a big one in the first five minutes? We want people to stay. And it wouldn’t be …

AI-powered search tools like Perplexity or AI Mode in Google Search have been on the rise since the technology has led to a significant shift in user behaviour in terms of how they are looking up information online. Using AI chatbots, AI-powered search tools, and agentic AI web browsers, users can now get all sorts of responses back on almost any topic imaginable. While most of these products have been designed to make it easy for users to type in anything they like and get it to understand them, there are unique ways of getting more interesting and useful results out of Perplexity AI. This practice is commonly referred to as ‘prompt engineering’ and has become a skill of its own. Earlier this year, Perplexity briefly beat OpenAI’s ChatGPT to become the number one free app on Apple’s App Store in India following Bharti Airtel’s announcement that it is giving away a free one-year Perplexity Pro subscription to eligible users in the country. The Jeff Bezos-backed startup also continuously updates its AI search engine to …

Smith-Panesar feud: ‘Tell us how you do it, mate, fine or coarse paper? Tell us the tricks of your trade,’ says Monty Panesar | Cricket News

Published by Webster

Australian cricketer Steven Smith, on the eve of the first Ashes Test, called out Monty Panesar’s interview in the BBC quiz show, in which the left-arm spinner incorrectly referred to the capital of Germany as Athens and America as a city. Smith’s comments came after Pansear’s suggestion to England’s team of getting under the skin of Smith in the upcoming Ashes 2025. Panesar asked Ben Stokes’ men to refer to the 2018 sandpaper gate as a tactic. In 2018, Smith, alongside David Warner and Cameron Bancroft, was caught for ball tampering in a Test match at Cape Town in South Africa and received appropriate fines and bans. “I’m gonna go off topic for a second here,” Smith started his counterattack on Thursday. “Who among you in the room have seen Mastermind and Monty Panesar on that? Any of you? Yeah, well, those of you that have, you’ll understand where I’m coming from, and those of you haven’t, do yourself a favour because it’s pretty comical,” he said theatrically. “Anyone that believes that Athens is in …

Bibi duped? Hamas tricks Israel with fake body bags, viral video raises surveillance doubts

Published by Parlour News

Published on Nov 08, 2025 12:46 am IST Hamas has openly admitted to staging the recovery of Israeli bodies in Gaza, calling it a deliberate security deception meant to fool Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) drones and surveillance. The group released footage showing body bags filled with pillows, declaring “the enemy fell for it,” and described the operation as a tactic to outsmart IDF strikes. Israeli authorities accused Hamas of recycling the same bodies for propaganda and said forensic exams confirmed the remains recently returned via Red Cross did not belong to any hostages.   News / Videos / Bibi duped?

Badminton star Tai Tzu-ying confirms retirement: We lived to witness the fairytale era, watching the shuttle do tricks in a starry sky | Badminton News

Published by Webster

Autumnal evenings don’t get more melancholy than the finality of the realisation that Tai Tzu-ying will never play a competitive badminton match again. Autumnal evenings don’t get merrier than knowing with certainty that no matter how abruptly it ends, we lived to witness the fairytale era when Tai Tzu-ying played badminton, watching the shuttle do tricks in a starry sky. On Friday, the Taiwanese officially confirmed her retirement which had been on the cards for a while. “A beautiful chapter has come to an end. Thank you badminton for everything you have given me,” she wrote. Like a safe-haven asset in times of uncertain equity markets, Tai Tzu-ying’s two silvers – at Tokyo Olympics and the 2021 Worlds – could be pegged as her peaks. But the mesmerising shuttler needed neither the Olympic gold nor a World Championship title to contend for the tag of the sport’s greatest artist of all time. Even her competitors would arrive at a quick consensus that no matter how many times they got the better of her, she could …

5 Easy Tricks to Make Your Food Look (and Feel) Restaurant-Ready

5 Easy Tricks to Make Your Food Look (and Feel) Restaurant-Ready

Published by Webster

Sometimes, that’s how it happens. You’re not trying to be clever. You’re just paying attention. Or maybe you were about to toss “leftovers,” and they turned into an artful creation. That day, I didn’t just style a salad. I styled the present moment. Wild, imperfect, and alive. It reminded me that we don’t always need a reason to create — just a moment and a little light. Good styling starts with good ingredients. Things that are already beautiful in their raw state — a slightly uneven tomato, a burst of burrata, a streak of olive oil. These don’t need arranging so much as they need noticing. Begin with what’s fresh and let your hands do the arranging without overthinking it. Messy can be magical. I believe anyone can style a meal in a way that feels good. It’s not about trends or perfection; it’s about slowing down enough to notice the colours on your cutting board, to place things with care rather than haste. Over the years, I’ve come to see food styling as a …

The other day, an excited Ambati Rayudu noted a key deception from Josh Hazlewood in the pressure-cooker situation in the end overs of a chase by Rajasthan Royals. In his two overs, the 17th and 19th of the innings, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) quick gave away just 7 runs and picked up three vital wickets, including game-turning ones of Shimron Hetmeyer and Dhruv Jurel. Hazlewood would grip the ball like an off-cutter but the batsmen still seemed hurried by the ‘slower ones’. Rayudu had glimpsed a side-arm angle of the replays later and burst out in appreciation. “He is loading up as if he is bowling a slower ball, but bowling quick short-of-length balls,” the former India player told ESPNCricinfo. “There were at least three or four of those balls that the batsmen were late on.” Story continues below this ad Sitting beside Rayudu, Aaron Finch chipped in, “they were trying to slog it over midwicket but it would hit the splice of the bat and drip out to cover or midwicket.” Both Finch …
