Seinfeld Reunion Video from Curb Your Enthusiasm by Topher Grace
I saw this on the Interweb and being the Seinfeld fan I am wanted to share it here. 
Topher Grace recently edited an unofficial Seinfeld Reunion using clip footage from Curb Your Enthusiasm.
In the episode it was taken from, Larry David agrees to reunite all of the old cast members including Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander, Michael Richards, and Wayne “Newman” Knight onscreen.
From the video clip's description, to quote: "I edited all the Seinfeld scenes from Curb season 7 into one episode. It’s more like a radio play, but if you sew together all the dialogue from audition scenes, read-throughs and rehearsals together... a 9 minute hint at what the plot of a reunion might have been."
After watching the Seinfeld Reunion snippet, I think it did a great job portraying what Seinfeld would have been like after the series ended... and, it included a hilariously ironic finish... check it out Seinfeld fans!

Rebug Toolbox Source Code is Released!
I just shared this on PS4 News and so I'll add it here as well
Following the Rebug 4.78.2 PS3 CFW update, today @evilsperm announced the release of their Rebug Toolbox Source Code with details below.
Download: Rebug Toolbox Source Code / GIT
I (evilsperm) contacted Cyberskunk and a new friendship was born. We worked to bring debug settings to the dongles at the time.
Yes we succeeded (and pissed off lots of other devs because they couldnt pir8 off devnet anymore).
Than we were graced by the likes of Fail 0ver Flow, Geohot, Grafchokolo/glevand, and the entire PS3DEV team (the list is long).
After F0F released the first 1/2 of the keys to the kingdom Geohot stepped in and put the last piece of the puzzle together, and here we are today SIX YEAR LATER! (amazing how time goes by so fast)
After we had the ability to create custom firmware Cyberskunk and myself decided it was time to start creating the end all be all of custom firmware’s for the PS3. I think we have, and judging by the 1,000,000 + users of Rebug over the years I would say all of you think the same as well
Rebug has and always will be focused around the Rebug toolbox and DEX. We came up with the idea when we were working on the dongles at the very start of the PS3 scene explosion. We had plenty of help along the way to get things perfect, we also need to thank DeanK for the source to multiman and his help in creating the gui for the toolbox. Our first gui without DeanK was amazing ugly but functional
Fast forward about 5 years:
We now have Joonie and Habib working with us on Rebug. These guys are super talented and we are happy to have them on the Rebug Team. Without these 2 Rebug would be no more. Cuberskunk has moved on and is trying to start a family, and I have been extremely busy, with work and kids. On top of that we had lost the final source code to the toolbox due to a server failure, and I had a very old backup that we were able to work with after Joonie and...

Apple Ordered by Judge to Create Backdoor to iPhone
According to CNN, Apple has been ordered to create a backdoor to their iPhone for the FBI to use to examine a phone recovered from the San Bernardino shooters.
In response, Apple CEO Tim Cook published an open letter to customers to get their feedback on what he calls "an overreach by the U.S. government" in attempt to help combat terrorism.
While I personally can't stand Apple (Droid fan here) I'm inclined to agree that Apple shouldn't be forced to build an iOS version that bypasses and compromises their security encryption, although in certain cases such as this I can see the U.S. government's point of view as well.
Does anyone else have thoughts on this? Feel free to comment or vote in the Poll
