Iphone 6 battery life


Fans of the IPhone have recently started complaining to Apple that it seems like as the IPhones keep getting upgraded, it seems like the battery life is getting worse, however it appears as though some people that have this phone say the battery life is great and some say its very bad, which is strange considering that it is the same phone. Well, a well-known you tuber called Austin Evans decided to put it to the test and find out what exactly the problem is, and he found out that not all the models are the same. The phone can either contain a TSMC chip or a Samsung chip and he found out that the battery life for the TSMC chip lasts a whole fifty minutes longer that the IPhones that have the Samsung chip. He even found an app called Lirum that can let IPhone 6 users know what chip they have in their phone.

Back to the future day..

Pepsi Perfect Bottle
 
 
 
To celebrate "Back to the future" day, Pepsi decided to capitalise on this and create a limited "Pepsi perfect" bottle to celebrate the creation of the movie. This was hugely successful since this movie has so many fans and it was a huge hit when it first came out.
What was so interesting is that most of the inventions that were shown in  Back to the future years ago actually ended up being invented, this includes 3D movies and fingerprint technology.

Apple and the rock band U2



A lot of people were not happy when they were going through their music and they saw that a U2 album had been downloaded and couldn't be deleted. As part of Apple's big product event they decided to promote the U2 album by downloading it onto peoples IPhone's. This launched so many twitter complains as people were not happy with the fact that music they didn't like had been placed on their music library. And what makes it worse is the fact that it cant be deleted and a lot of people were angry with the fact that Apple had done it in a way where it couldn't be deleted and even if you had the "no automatic downloads" option, it would still download the album onto your iTunes library, of course this was great for people that are actually fans of U2, but many other people were not happy at all.

Photo bought for $2 could be worth millions now


Randy Guijarro , an ordinary guy who deals with coins and collectibles went to a junk shop in California and paid $2 for a bunch of random objects that he found interesting. Years later he found out that in the box of objects it contained rare photograph of infamous outlaw Billy the kid who lived during the mid 1800's.

A company who deals with historical artefacts have claimed that once it is put up for sale, it is likely to generate millions of dollars. What makes this picture so valuable is the fact that it is the 2nd picture to every be found of Billy the Kid. People who deal with these types of cases spent a year on this picture investigating its authenticity by carefully looking at the picture and analysing everything, and they finally recently made their decision that this picture is indeed a real picture of Billy the Kid.

Why the Mcflurry spoon looks the way it does


A lot of people online have been wondering why the McDonalds spoon for their famous ice-cream "Mcflurry" looks the way it does. It doesn't look like an ordinary spoon because it is thick and  it hasa deep hole in the middle which really confused a lot of people. View image on TwitterView image on Twitter

So an employee from mcdonalds has finally explained on social media that they fill the cup with ice-cream, put the oreos on top, put the spoon in, and place the whole thing in a machine that uses the spoon to stir the icecream, and she actually posted a video that shows how it's done:
