Nice dick move: Sony removing “Linux/install other OS” option from next 3.21 PS3 update.  Only mandatory if you actually plan on using that PS3 of yours for anything other than a paperweight…[Update]

Update: PS3/Linux installers, the mastermind behind the whole crumbling of the PS3, Geohot himself has some brief, yet hopefully reassuring words: DO NOT UPDATE! Captain obvious, is that you.

Oh Geeze:  Amid search/censorship fiasco, Google/China Unicom postpone Android launches.

You can’t say you didn’t see this coming… Amid the fury of media coverage the last couple of weeks in regards to Google’s almost certain move of pulling out of China, it appears the little Android that could is finally feeling the effects.
