Samsung's epic troll to Apple

Samsung Pays Apple $1 Billion Sending 30 Trucks Full of 5 Cents Coins

This morning more than 30 trucks filled with 5-cent coins arrived at Apple’s headquarters in California. Initially, the security company that protects the facility said the trucks were in the wrong place, but minutes later, Tim Cook (Apple CEO) received a call from Samsung CEO explaining that they will pay $1 billion dollars for the fine recently ruled against the South Korean company in this way.

the funny part is that the signed document does not specify a single payment method, so Samsung is entitled to send the creators of the iPhone their billion dollars in the way they deem best.



This dirty but genius geek troll play is a new headache to Apple executives as they will need to put in long hours counting all that money, to check if it is all there and to try to deposit it crossing fingers to hope a bank will accept all the coins.

Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of Samsung Electronics, told the media that his company is not going to be intimidated by a group of “geeks with style” and that if they want to play dirty, they also know how to do it.

You can use your coins to buy refreshments at the little machine for life or melt the coins to make computers, that’s not my problem, I already paid them and fulfilled the law.

A total of 20 billion coins, delivery hope to finish this week.

Let’s see how Apple will respond to this.

Cosplay deemed too sexy :lol:

On the second day of the event, Jessica doned the figure hugging pink jump suit with exposed cleavage, one of the many costumes available in-game to cheerleading heroin Juliet Starling.

Although the outfit does replicate the in-game costume perfectly, PAX East organisers felt it showed a little too much skin to their liking. She was asked to either change attire or leave, prompting her to switch back to her Juliet Starling cheerleader costume which she wore on the first day of the event.

They have. Eg. Man-Faye had been banned from Anime Expo at one point in time. I know because I was there.

@Doc
with how strange this weather has been these past two weeks , not surprised at all when the quake happened.

Not sure if that if it's a good or bad thing that I'm pretty calm during earthquakes nowadays. LoL
