Yep BUT just because you are waiting for 15-30 seconds doesn't mean the time is being sensibly used.
Check out this problem on the AS3 compiler for Flash. Disabling compiler warnings reduces compile time from 74 seconds to around 1 second. http://forums.adobe.com/message/3923444
So next time you watch that splash screen crawl by, sit back and guess whether it is actually loading or just winding itself in circles...
Not precisely how you mean, but you can have static edge/chain shapes, which are like line objects you can stick anywhere and bodies will interact with them.
If you want dynamic concave shapes you can split your shape into convex shapes however you like. Then you can put all the shapes into one body and Box2D will move them as one.
Go and have a go with Box2D. As far as "fun to use" APIs go, you can't get much better.
Automatic detection of copyrighted video is a reality. It's very sensitive too, treading somewhat into fair use. I tried uploading a short segment of a TV show with the audio changed. It was automatically flagged -- instantly -- and pulled without any input from a Youtube employee, and having never been seen by anyone but myself.
Are you really expecting Apple to call the next iPhone the "iPhone 6"?
Ok, Nullsoft did it for a laugh, but for Apple to do it, would be very surprising. Even Windows doesn't follow its own internal version numbers (they had a chance with Windows 7 to do this, but Windows 7 is actually internally 6.1, so they missed it.) Everything about Apple is neat and tidy, it would *really* surprise me if they were fickle enough to skip a version number on the box and then explain to their users why.
Also, I don't think the internal version number is stored the way you have it anyway.
no, you're right, but what i think he means is unity is superficially like OSX.

In addition to all the other excellent points you made, here's another:
Say I'm making a game in HTML5. How do I make it harder to steal than the average JPEG? At least with a SWF i can compile away the url-check and obfuscate it. With HTML5, everything is open source. What good is that? I need to make money off this stuff. I SELL LICENCES to my games, who the hell is going to buy a licence to a game when the source code is right there in front of them??
"KDE users have gotten a rather unpleasant surprise from Facebook: Not only is the site blocking KDE apps like Gwenview from uploading, the social media giant has also taken down photos uploaded with the KDE plugins. Yet another reason that users might think twice before depending on KDE for uploading photos."
I don't know about anyone else but the choice of browser has gone from being something reasonably important to an almost completely worthless argument.
- Speedwise, since Chrome's initial release everyone went "whoa" and upped their game with javascript execution and loading times far superior than just a few years ago. - Interfacewise most of them seem to be converging on a Chrome/Opera minimalist look. - Pluginwise the main Firefox players are being remade for Chrome and I'm sure that the others are on the way if not already here. - Standards support-wise Acid2 is now supported by everyone including IE and more good support stuff on the way
All the browsers seem to be converging on one point. Windows now has IE, Firefox, Opera, Chrome and Safari and they are now practically identical to each other.
Maybe that's a little too much redundancy, and it's time to shoot one or two of them in the head...
Indeed they could have got an internal security person. But how do you tell if security is *actually* improved? They genuinely might be paying $100k for a bullshitter who sits there watching youtube and writing paula beans.
Interestingly enough there are some images which are ok and link to related content, such as "Unusual Facts About Breasts" and "Goalkeeper Attacks Hot Reporter". These images seem to work ok.

Well maybe for some examples, not the ribbon though. The ribbon objectively IS better than the Office 2003 setup.
We know this, because Microsoft did an absolute SHITLOAD of user interface testing on this.

Bad slashdot reporting as usual.
The big deal here is the "mid-air" aspect, i.e. no actual surface.
However the display is 2D and the article makes no claim for it being 3D. It's not volumetric, it's not 3D. It's a projector.
It's very cool, and Slashdot has just completely misrepresented it. Well done.

Actually I really want to see a 3x3 version. i would also be interested in owning just a 3 if anyone has one.
I listened to the tau music, then went back to listen to the pi music, then listened to the tau music again.
It's odd, the tau music is clearly "better" in a musical kind of way, but it's the pi music which is rigidly stuck in my head.
Don't panic, guys. The browser is FINISHED anyway. There isn't anything left to add to it (that plugins can't do), so version numbers is a nonissue.
yes, sorry. I often get confused between rape and KDE.
Mm-hm, and from that page:
"Note that no content has been deleted - if your application is re-enabled, all the content comes back."
"KDE users have gotten a rather unpleasant surprise from Facebook: Not only is the site blocking KDE apps like Gwenview from uploading, the social media giant has also taken down photos uploaded with the KDE plugins.

not true for Firefox 5, it totally did update through Help>About for me

Yes, that's certainly a productive use of someone's day. Taking all your CDs that have been ripped... and doing it again!

You don't happen to have a Playstation account with the same username/password, do you?
OP is quoting the film "Deja Vu".
If that film is accurate then you should be able to point your laser pointer at the screen and blind the participants as they post.
worth a try I suppose
