LOS ANGELES — Christopher Nolan's films, from "The Dark Knight" to "Inception," have been a force at the box office for a solid two decades. As of Sunday, the dizzying, dialogue-heavy three-hour epic has generated around $300 million at the domestic box office, the fifth-most this year, and topped $777 million globally, the fourth-highest, since its July 21 debut. And that's without ever being the number one film at the domestic box office. "Oppenheimer" is Nolan's third highest-grossing domestic release, behind 2008's "The Dark Knight" and 2012's "The Dark Knight Rises." Both "The Dark Knight" and "The Dark Knight Rises" generated more than $1 billion at the global box office.

Elon Musk is one of the most divisive tech and business personas of our time, and there is much chatter about what shapes his beliefs and business choices. Beyond these, however, a consistent source of influence from his childhood to today is his self-professed love of science fiction. "That is Musk's guide for living, yet he is using that guide to justify doing the very thing that the story is opposed to," she added.

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) were 320 million euros ($348 million), down 10% from a year earlier and below analyst forecasts of 386 million euros, Refinitiv data showed. Revenue rose 21% to 739 million euros, against Adyen's mid-term forecasts of more than 25% growth. He said the economy overall is slowing and online payments growth may not be quite as fast as it was in the pre-COVID era. A similar margin decline led to a sell-off in Adyen shares when the company reported full-year earnings in February.

Revenue rose 21% to 739 million euros, against Adyen's mid-term forecasts of more than 25% growth. Adyen's EBITDA margin fell to 43% from 59%, which the company said was mostly because of higher wage costs as it takes on more staff. A similar margin decline led to a sell-off in Adyen shares when the company reported full-year earnings in February. Adyen maintained its medium-term targets for revenue growth above 25% and an improving EBITDA margin that it expects to reach 65% in the long term.

Cell service is down. Although strong winds can sometimes threaten cell towers, most are strong enough to handle the worst that even a Category 5 hurricane can bring. The smoke and flames can also attenuate signals because of the particulate density in the air.”If a tower collapses, cell networks could take months to restore. This means satellite phones, which often feature large antennas, can help provide voice, SMS, and data services anywhere on Earth, even without cell service. Although it’s unclear how long cell phone service could be down in affected regions, companies have been able to bring connectivity to disaster regions in the past.
