Kristen Wiig Channels Game of Thrones’ Khaleesi, Creates Tonight Show Magic | Vanity Fair

Kristen Wiig Channels Game of Thrones’ Khaleesi, Creates Tonight Show MagicBY JOSH DUBOFFTwo years ago, Kristen Wiig appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and did an impersonation, of sorts, of Michael Jordan, delighting the Internet—and so began a great Fallon-Wiig talk-show tradition. Wiig then showed up to The Tonight Show “as Harry Styles” last year, and it was similarly considered a grand success, in this viral-video economy we now live in. And last night, she returned once again to Fallon’s show, this time donning the blond wig of none other than Daenerys Targaryen (dragon perched on shoulder, natch), and the results are wonderful. It’s almost best to go into this clip with as little information as possible; and, if you’ve never seen an episode of Game of Thrones before, don’t worry about “not getting it” or anything like that—it would seem Wiig hasn’t seen an episode, either.

iPhone 6s specs rumors: SiP processor reportedly in the works | BGR

Chippie

One of the most mysterious components of the Apple Watch, which Apple hasn’t really detailed on stage during either one of its media events in which the device was demoed, is the smartwatch’s brains. Dubbed the Apple S1, and referred to by Apple as a System in Package (SiP), the component includes the processor, memory, storage and other tiny but critical parts, and should be further explained once the device is launched and torn apart

Meanwhile, reports from China suggest Apple’s SiPs might be even more important for Apple in the future, as they might be used in next-gen iPhone.

The time has finally come for the Apple Watch.

Apple CEO Tim Cook unveiled the wearable — the company’s first entirely new product line in five years — Monday at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco.

After talking about a number of other updates, Cook called Apple Watch “the most personal device we have ever created” and “the most advanced timepiece ever created.”

And it will be by far the most expensive smartwatch ever created — at least for the 18-karat solid gold version, which will be priced at $10,000.

The basic versions will cost $349, for the Sport, and between $549 and $1,049 for the midrange stainless steel model, depending on size and choice of watchband.

Preorders for Apple Watch begin April 10 and they will ship starting April 24.
