OMG 4chan

If you've been unlucky -- or gullible -- enough to fall foul of Apple's '1970 bug' you'll be pleased to hear the company is aware of it, as it confirms it is "working on an update".

The bug caused iPhones to crash when their date was set to 1/1/1970, a surprise to many users who thought, thanks to 4chan, that it would show them a retro Apple logo. For those foolhardy enough to believe anything originating on 4chan, setting phones back to the date caused iPhones to brick, with no apparent fix. Even experts in Apple's Genius Bars were unable to fix the problem.
