There are plenty of new LG Nexus 5 and Huawei Nexus leaks out there, painting an interesting picture of Google’s 2015 Nexus plans. For the first time, Google will have two new Nexus devices in stores this year, each serving different purposes. But both handsets will give users access to the same new features, including a fingerprint sensor and USB-C port.

A new video supposedly shows us exactly what the 2015 Nexus 5 model will look like, and it’s seemingly our best look yet at Google’s Nexus 5 reinvention.

The new Apple TV will launch without its best new feature

Apple’s plan to roll out a TV subscription service has reportedly been pushed back, yet again. According to Bloomberg, Apple is still planning to roll out a revamped Apple TV this fall but will wait until 2016 at the earliest before announcing its intriguing and long-rumored TV subscription service.

Though Apple was naturally hoping to announce a new TV service alongside its next-gen Apple TV, contract negotiations with content providers have reportedly been thornier and more complex than Apple initially anticipated. Not only is Apple still trying to secure content deals, but pricing negotiations have also proven to be a sticking point. And so with many question marks still looming, Apple has astutely decided to be patient as opposed to rolling out its planned TV service prematurely.

%name What’s crazier? Eagle attacks drone mid flight, or fisherman hooks drone mid air by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

In what seems like the blink of an eye, drones went from something only gadget enthusiasts obsessed over to mainstream machines you can now pick up from places like Toys”R”Us for just $25. In turn, the number videos on YouTube featuring drone footage has skyrocketed in just the last few months alone. In the process, we’ve also seen an increase in drone related mishaps.

In the last week, two such drone ‘disasters’ made their way around the web. While one might think that flying a drone in the open skies should be a worriless affair, the following videos prove otherwise.

%name Architects try to raise $2.9 billion to build Minas Tirith, the city in ‘Lord of the Rings’ by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

This is an IndieGoGo project that’s so awesome, we just have to hope it’s not a scam. A team of architects in the U.K. led by a man named Jonathan Wilson has started an IndieGoGo campaign to raise £1.85 billion (USD$2.89 billion) to build Minas Tirith, the beautiful city that was built into a mountainside in The Lord of the Rings films.

Facebook user creates fake Target customer support profile, trolls angry idiots

%name Facebook user creates fake Target customer support profile, trolls angry idiots by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Last Friday, Target announced that it would be doing away with gender-based signs in its stores. That means no more displays featuring girls playing with Barbies and boys duking it out with Nerf guns.

It’s a smart, sensitive move on the part of Target, refusing to propagate gender norms and letting kids decide who they want to be, but as you might expect when literally anything happens to help make people feel more comfortable, some customers were outraged.

The iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus aren’t even officially official but one major carrier is already letting you reserve yours. The move isn’t exactly surprising, as all mobile operators who stock Apple’s smartphone try to make the most of the iPhone, particularly the latest model. We’ve already seen T-Mobile promising current iPhone 6 buyers a seamless iPhone 6s upgrade this fall, and T-Mobile’s parent company has an iPhone 6s play of its own.

Man who said Apple would ‘disappear’ if it didn’t release Apple Watch by last May predicts Apple’s next big project

%name Man who said Apple would ‘disappear’ if it didn’t release Apple Watch by last May predicts Apple’s next big project by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

There are many Apple analysts out there — some of them are good and some of them are… not-so-good. The most amusing Apple analyst bar none, however, is Global Equities Research analyst “Acid” Trip Chowdhry, who infamously declared that Apple would “disappear” if it didn’t release the Apple Watch by last May. Street Insider informs us that Chowdhry is back with a new prediction about Apple’s next big project and it’s apparently going to be a heads up display (HUD) that measures anywhere from 27 inches to 50 inches.
