500: maintenance mode

Greetings from the Engine Room!

Sorry, but there's really nothing to see here right now. Our server is in maintenance mode – and our little bot is trying to sort the error messages with its last bit of energy.

Whether it was a data leak, a power outage in the cluster, or just a grumpy bit – we don't know yet. But what we do know is:

The data drama escalated into a server meltdown. But don't worry: We're on it.

What now?

Everything is surely running smoothly over at our colleagues from inside digital – why not stop by!
Or you could pass the time by visiting our social media channels – for example Instagram, YouTube or TikTok. At least there are no server problems there – promised.

Thanks for your patience. Our bot is already rebooting at full speed. 🔧

Galaxy Ring: Reliable Tracking, When the Software Keeps Up

I’m sticking to my stance on smart rings: They’re not really fitness devices, but more geared towards health monitoring. Sure, fitness plays a big role in overall health, but there’s a distinction. And this is where Samsung had a real shot at bridging the gap—but they missed it. The Galaxy Ring? Solid build quality, no doubt. But what about its health and fitness features? Let’s take a look at the data and see what it shows us.
