It's 2023, which means the race is on! Will Apple release iOS Push Notifications for the web before mid-April?

Hitting that mark would squeak Cupertino in below the 8-year-late line, which I'm sure would be a huge relief.

Just read on Wikipedia that 2013 there was actually talk about a real life adaptation as a TV series for HBO, directed by Del Toro.. :blobcateyes:

Just saw that one of my favorite anime is now on Netflix.
If you like realistic thrillers, watch "Monster".

I've read the manga before I saw the anime and really like how they adapted it. :blobcatheart:

This is one of the few anime where I'd love to see a real life adaptation, filmed in Germany with the appropriate actors as it plays mostly in Germany, starting in 1984 and jumps to 1995.
