Apple Watch bends massively

Is this the next "bendgate"? Images published by the California-based tech giant Apple indicate that the new Apple Watch might have a stability problem. Which would be a massive issue not only because of the high price of the device, but also because it's not the first time that an Apple product has it. September 2014: Apple releases their new iPhone generation, which contains the 4.7" iPhone 6 and the 5.5" iPhone 6 Plus. Soon after the release, many costumers found that, especially the 6 Plus,

Samsung now pays AdBlock Plus to have the ads blocked that Microsoft paid to have unblocked

What a galactic move! As of today, Korean consumer electronics manufacturer Samsung has started to pay AdBlock Plus (ABP) for blocking Microsoft ads.

Inspired by the various clusters built from PlayStation 3s, this monster machine is ready to take on the most demanding tasks.
