Fail Lang Syne? Auld Lang Fail? Either way, pass the eggnog. This week:

• The Jackman family’s gingerbread house still happened this year and still looks beautiful even though divorce and heartbreak and whatever
• That actress from Love, Actually is old now (yuck!) and unrecognizable (she is not)
• The apocalypse is coming for your phones, and this cybersecurity company is looking pointedly at you to do something
