The Morning After: Marvel’s Netflix shows will reappear on Disney+, but only in Canada
Marvel’s first run of TV shows set in its cinematic universe, including Daredevil and Jessica Jones, have found a new home beyond Netflix – if you live north of the border. The shows, set to disappear from Netflix on March 1st, will appear on Disney Plus in Canada, starting March 16th.

There’s no official news of a similar revival in the US, at least not yet. However – without spoiling any surprises – some characters have managed to make notable reappearances in recent Marvel movies and shows. Hopefully, Disney can figure out exactly where to take these shows, and hey, give The Defenders the do-over it deserves. I won’t be taking any questions on this matter.

Intel is finally ready to reveal more details of its new U and P-series CPUs for ultraportables.

With the Core i7-1280P, Intel’s fastest 28-watt P-series CPU, the company claims you’ll see up to 70 percent faster multithreaded performance than last year’s i7-1195G7. Like the rest of its 12th-gen lineup, Intel’s U and P-series chips are a new hybrid design that combines Performance cores (P-cores) and Efficient cores (E-cores) on a single die.
