Twidroid Acquired by Tweeup, Changes name to Twidroyd


This is my favorite Android Twitter App. I like it better that Seesmic and the official Twitter client. Today, it was sold to TweetUp and development will be continued under the name Twidroyd. Why the name change?

You can blame Mr. George Lucas, who has the rights to the name droid from Star Wars. It’s absolutely ridiculous that the name had to change to avoid legal trouble. Jeez.

Anyway, grab a copy if you have an Android grab a copy of Twidroyd here. Also, it will be bundled on many phones as a result of this new deal. Enjoy.


(Saturday’s) Song of the Week: Tool – Lateralus


httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDlC7oG_2W4

Over thinking, over analyzing,
separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition, leaving opportunities behind.

^^ Tool wrote a song about me?

PS – (I’m fucking awful with remembering these weekly posts). Hope everyone had a great 4th. Prepare for this shit heatwave we’re about to get

Tool – Lateralus


No one cares that you left your iPhone 4 on your car roof and drove off


GizmodoGizmodo reader Ryan Davis made a mindless mistake we could all make: he left his iPhone 4 on the roof of his car, and drove off. This is his story of how a normal day turned into, well, panic.

Guess what. No one gives a flying fuck. Isn’t it common knowledge that you should never put anything on the roof of your car? Because anytime that people do that, it’s inevitable that the person will forget about it and drive off.

You are a moron and it’s a shame your phone survived. Plus, you were two hours late for work. I hope you got fired. There are other people out there who need jobs.

I want to read tech news. Not action stories about how you recovered your iPhone.

The Pope is an Asshole


SFGate – The Vatican on Monday issued an unprecedented rebuke of a top cardinal who had accused the retired Vatican No. 2 of blocking clerical sex abuse investigations, publicly dressing down a man who had been praised for his criticism of church abuse cover-ups.

The silencing of Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn, the archbishop of Vienna and long considered a papal contender, drew heated criticism from clerical abuse victims. They said the Vatican should be honoring Schoenborn, not publicly humiliating him, for his calls for greater transparency and demands for a crackdown on priests who rape and sodomize children.

So you get a Cardinal trying to do the right thing and make sure that priests who abuse children don’t just get shuffled around and the Pope’s like “nah shut the fuck up and let’s just keep doing what we do.” All of a sudden a Cardinal makes sense and the Pope pretty much crushes his ass. You suck, pope!

See, I have a huge problem with this type of shit. The Church has been fucked in the head for centuries and the clergy just gets worse and worse.

This is Why I Hate Summer


Screenshot on my left is my biggest horror of summer. It was just in the 70s for the past two days with no humidity and it was glorious. Now we’re about to enter a never ending 90+ heatwave. Unless I’m on vacation on the beach or at a pool, there is no reason for it to be that hot.

Fuck summer. Fuck the heat. Give me cold. Give me snow. I’m moving to Canada or Alaska.

See people don’t understand: if you’re cold, you can always snuggle, put on a sweatshirt, blankets, layers etc and be cozy. If its 90, you’re screwed unless you have an AC.

Is it fall yet?
