There I am, minding my own business, watching some
porn a film on the sofa with my wonderful gizmo sat on the cushion next to me.
All of a sudden, fucker lights up without me touching it. It then proceeds to flick back and forth through various screens before selecting someone from my phone book and starting a text to them. It simply typed 'w'.
Has my phone been hacked or was this an attempt at communication from the dead?

There is a story about the PS4 that...
news.softpedia.com/news/PlayStation-4-Sa...-Report-401003.shtml
One console fan has just initiated a thread on IGN forums where it translates a message posted on Baidu Tieba by a Chinese student who worked at Foxconn. He claims he was one of the many who deliberately sabotaged the PlayStation 4 manufacturing.
It appears that lots of students were forced by their school president to work at Foxconn's plant; otherwise, they will not receive their graduation certificates.
Morover, the report claims Foxconn put all those students to work on assembling the PlayStation 4 and kept its own employees on assembling the iPhone 5s instead.
I have to admit that I did buy a PS4. If it was possible to buy an ethically sourced and manufactured video games console, I would be first in the queue.
I never treat myself to anything, I hate spending money, and I never buy anything like that on release day because there can be tech problems and you basically get ripped off a bit. But I thought, what the hell, you're going to be dead one day, you're hardly going to lie in your deathbed and regret the fact that you slightly overpaid for a PS4. Why not go wild and actually buy a console on the release day, be like James Dean and really throw caution to the wind?
Anyway, mine is fucked after a week. It's possibly due to damage incurred during transit (thank you hedge-fund owned Royal Mail). At least I got to speak to an English person on the helpline. I'm getting a new one on Tuesday.
This is what you get for trying new things in life.
