Interesting to note, the video was shot in Acapulco, Mexico where the government was all too happy to provide whatever extra security and the like that was needed by the singers.

It seems that every time we post a music video or other form of Celebrity Sighting, there are always comments wondering why we should care about such "trivial" things. If you take a look at the screenshot above, you'll notice that in less than a week from the video being posted on Youtube it's gotten almost 5 million views.

The reMarkable 2 tablet has finally replaced my trusty paper notebook
E-readers are too slow. Tablets like the iPad are too expensive and have battery life measured in hours instead of days. A stylus on my phone is too slippery and too slick. Pencil and paper? That's the holy grail — and the reMarkable 2's combination of focused software and awesome hardware finally replaced it for me.
