The Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge may be Samsung’s best smartphones yet, and they’re certainly some of the best Android handsets you can purchase right now, but that doesn’t mean they’re flaw-free. In fact, many users have complained the devices have an annoying and unexpected problem, considering the phones’ high-end specs. Apparently, neither model manages RAM memory very well, which can lead to apps crashing more frequently than expected, especially for flagship devices.

However, Samsung appears to be familiar with the problem, and the company plans to fix in upcoming updates.

The funniest thing you’ll see today: Elders react to Mortal Kombat X fatalities

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Mortal Kombat X is one of the most popular games of 2015 so far… and it’s also one of the most gory and violent games of 2015 so far. As such, there’s probably not a better game out there for The Fine Brothers to record elders playing — so that’s exactly what they did in the most recent entries in their popular YouTube reaction series.

Even better, the brothers also filmed elders reacting to all of the fatalities in Mortal Kombat X, which are easily the most gruesome finishing moves the Mortal Kombat franchise has seen to date.

This is the stupidest argument against iPhone and Android encryption we’ve ever heard

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Why are we so suspicious of law enforcement officials who are howling bloody murder about Apple and Google’s decision to encrypt smartphone traffic? Largely because they keep making totally boneheaded arguments. The latest such argument comes to us courtesy of Motherboard, which reports that Daniel Conley, the Suffolk County District Attorney in Massachusetts, has argued that widespread smartphone encryption will lead to an outbreak of perverts snapping “upskirt” photos of women who are riding public transportation.

DO THIS IMMEDIATELY: You only have two days left to get a refund on bogus charges from AT&T – here’s how

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Last October, AT&T was slapped with $105 million in fines and fees by the Federal Trade Commission for hitting its subscribers with bogus “cramming” charges.

Here’s everything you need to know:
