Don’t Copy That Floppy

In the source clip, there is a teenager brutally assaulting a man for his iPhone. He never gets the iPhone, fortunately, but the man is obviously in pain from the punches the teen gives him. Also watch as nobody does anything about it. Besides, even if the teen got the iPhone, he’s stuck on a bus, with his pants at his knees.

This is disgraceful. Why do we live in a society where we feel we shouldn’t intervene in a fight? This man could’ve been even more injured if the teen didn’t stop.

Western Digital really outdid themselves with this harddrive/heatsink, aptly named the velociraptor. You’d name it somethin spiffy too if it out-performed enterprise grade solid state hard drives…

“Western Digital has announced the Velociraptor ($300 retail), their latest and greatest in speedy storage. Connecting through 3GB/s SATA, the 300GB, 10,000RPM Velociraptor is actually a 2.5″ hard drive with a massive “Icepack” heatsink that makes it large enough to fit in a 3.5″ bay. Maximum PC already got their hands on a preproduction unit. So how fast was it? Real fast.

In fact, the Velociraptor bested the competition (Western Digital’s old Raptor and the Samsung HD103UJ) in every test they threw at it. Plus it worked great in a RAID setup as well.

So then Maximum PC decided to pull out an SSD to see what the Velociraptor could really do. Of course, the $300 Velociraptor was thwarted by the more affluent $1,950 Mtron Pro-series 64-gigabyte SSD.

Still, in terms of bang for your buck, you aren’t going to do any better than Western Digital’s new chosen one. And besides, it’s just a matter of time before someone rips off that heatsink and fits this 2.5″ monster into a laptop.”

AT&T is planning the cut the price of the iPhone by a possible $200 when they release the 3G iPhone this summer. This will bring it down to a merely $199 for customers who sign a 2-year contract.

Apple is planning on releasing an 8GB drive and a 16GB drive, costing $399, and $499 respectively.

Since average iPhone users generate about $100 dollars, AT&T will easily gain all of it’s money back. However, AT&T doesn’t get to keep all of it, because they have to pay Apple 9% to 25% of what the users pay each month.

A few weeks before it comes out, Apple will stop shipments on the old iPhone to build up hype for the new one. This is said to be around June 27 or so.

There’s also two things new with the iPhone:

The new iPhone will be 2.5 mm thinner than the 11.7 mm original. The iPhone will also have a GPS chip for navigation and other location-based services.

Just like Halo 3 Grand theft auto IV has been ripped and distributed for free on torrent trackers and rapidshare. Since yesterday grand theft auto 4 PAL version released by iCON was seen and a couple of hours ago the group 101 has released a NTSC version for Americans and Candians. There is no speculation on when the PS3 version of grand theft auto will be released. We’ll keep you posted though.

TPB has announced that they will soon be releasing a blogging service that they promise will not be censored in any way. This new service is called “Baywords” and runs on the Wordpress engine (hey, same here!).

TPB’s Brokep says

“Many blogs are being shut down for uncomfortable thoughts and ideas. We will not do that. Our goal is to protect freedom of speech and your thoughts. As long as you don’t break any Swedish laws in your blog, we will defend it.”

Baywords is trying to include features such as domain redirects and good stats. You can also import your blog easily into the service.

With TPB being infamous, this service should be awesome!
