CSS "Hits Me Like a Rock" (feat Bobby Gillespie)

This song does not, in fact, hit like a rock.  Or even a feather. CSS have fallen pretty far since their breakthrough jams “Let’s Make Love and Listen to Death From Above” and “Music is My Hot, Hot Sex” dropped a few years back on their self titled debut LP. It now seems like they wouldn’t know an interesting idea if it hit them in the face, and after seeing them live twice, I can say their show is about as boring as their new material. Normally I wouldn’t even post a song like this, but as I listened to this song, I thought about how interesting it would be to play it for 1991 Bobby Gillespie, the awesome dude who had “played drums” in Jesus and Mary Chain and was fronting the powerhouse, drug guzzling, world conquering, Screamadelica era Primal Scream. Through the haze of MDMA, I bet he would agree that this sucks pretty bad and wonder what the hell he is doing adding his raspy howl to this dud of a track.

Apple and the brick bat.(MOBILE MEDIA)

The Online Reporter October 16, 2009 While Apple is no longer turning jailbroken phones into “bricks” via new updates, the company has taken one big crack at pirates with its latest update.

For the past seven months, jailbreaking software has relied on the “24kPwn” exploit. How it works isn’t nearly as important as the latest shipment of iPhone 3GS models, for which the exploit has been fixed. website google voice app

For app developers, the biggest anti-piracy tools seem to be making significant updates regularly (pirated apps can’t grab these updates) and using their own online authentication servers for initial activation.

The exploit-patch-fix version of cat-and-mouse will continue for some time and there will be a lot of complaints about by pirates about Apple being too restrictive and the closed network not allowing them to do what they want. Conspiracy theorists will divine some massive monopoly scheme because the Google Voice app still isn’t available. go to site google voice app

The real reason, however, for Apple’s approach is simple: If a user downloads an app from its store that fries his phone, he’ll run to Apple or AT&T and put the blame squarely on them, demanding a replacement. These companies have to handle the ecosystem the way they are until people treat them more like ISPs–as in not blaming them for what content is used when all they do is take users to the content.
