When Apple introduced iOS 14 last year, it unleashed a whole new rush of amazing widgets, both from third-party developers and Apple itself. Apple’s own apps and now its own widgets are supposed to serve as examples for other developers to be inspired by. But many of Apple’s stock apps don’t actually have widgets yet.

The Coen Brothers’ The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is now a western anthology film rather than a limited series, as originally intended. Netflix is planning to give the movie an awards season push by releasing it in select theaters (for Oscars qualification), before it debuts on the streaming service later this year. Written/directed by the Coens, Ballad of Buster Scruggs previously encompassed six segments originally conceived as individual TV episodes. Those segments include “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs”, starring Tim Blake Nelson as (Wanted) singing cowboy Buster Scruggs; “Near Algodones”, a story about a high-plains drifter who struggles to succeed as either a cattle driver or bank robber; “Meal Ticket”, which revolves around the members of a traveling show; “All Gold Canyon”, a tale about a prospector who finds gold, but must ward off an encroacher; “The Gal Who Got Rattled", a segment about two trail bosses and a woman who cross paths while traveling the Oregon Trail; and “The Mortal Remains", a story about five passengers on a stagecoach....

Sometimes creative people just have dumb, sexist, cringeworthy ideas. This is a problem for writers in any medium, but comics creators have special challenges to consider: the ethics of mind-controlled relations, the age of consent for extraterrestrials....
