That's morbid:
The name of the euthanasia drug from the movie Children of Men, Quietus, apparently has been given to a real drug: Quietus. Side effects may include… what exactly?

Viacom blames Rock Band sales for poor earnings →

Apple rejects/pulls Google Voice app from iTunes;... →
Apple is really kowtowing waaaaay to low to AT&T. Anything that might (gasp) use the iPhone’s functionality to interface with network services such as Google Voice (and provide cheaper/free texting and calling) has been cockblocked. This is foul; Apple is really approaching Micro$oft circa 2002 when it comes to proprietary bullshiting and closed business models these days.

Apple lying about 2G iPhone MMS support to force...
Right from the first press conference to introduce the iPhone 3.0 software with all its bells and whistles, Apple quietly declared way down in the fine print/questions that followed that certain features would not be available to iPhone 2G owners. A2DP was one such feature (due to different hardware), but another was MMS, more commonly known as picture messaging. Their explanation for not making...
