Allow me to introduce you to the concept of "context". This is a US-based, and US-centric site, INSIDE the Internets.com!, which connects us all. The web is the context. If you think slashdot isn't a "global" entity because of its history and server location, tell me why it is always talking about things like Ubuntu or thepiratebay or linux or skype or; well i could go on but laziness is also global.
and to make things worse, because ads do not fit well with plane crashes, terrorism, school shootings, corrupt politicians, the media seems to be gradually going to a "feel good" news dystopia. Lots and lots of sheer propaganda, instead of real news stories (my definition of real journalism is that "Something seems to stink @ X"; the rest is all propaganda). Techcrunch reported on a news website some time ago where there would be only good news, for christ's sake. http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/06/10/get-ready-to-barf-aol-and-sears-want-to-push-good- news-down-your-throat/ Couple these trends with the bazzilion-page slideshows and/or reviews, and one can only wonder why big media is complaining.
it is for comments like yours that I read/. Installed it yesterday, and right now its 12.34AM here, but *the feeling I have* is that it's something around 4.00AM.
I think the deal can work, but the only way this can work is if nobody at HP is ever allowed inside Palm. Ever. Just send them the money and let them work. (One exception: Palm's marketing and advertising team should be sent to Gitmo bay). AND WHERE THE F is the pre internationally???
There will be a common, cross-platform runtime, because the people who pay for content creation want one.
You're right on the money. For a geek forum, i find it hard that people never mention preferential attachment. There is only space for three: a huge leader, a much smaller follower, and a small niche player. I believe the order will see in 2 years is Android, iPhone, and Palm.
In some ways they are saints; for instance in corruption that seems clear to me (brazilian here; Ministries and judges on sale this month). Yet what the f with the cultural wars; wtf is up with all the hating and wtf is up with this 2 party shit? Does someone actually thinks it works?
You are AWARE, of course, that it was microsoft that saved apple, right? It was in the interest of microsoft, a monopolist, to have apple as a competitor so they could always use the word "choice". It was also in the interest of microsoft that this competitor was never linux of foss.
I suspect that Unity and Torque won't fall afoul of this prohibition, because both provide for easy native API access in an approved language.
I suspect that Unity and Torque won't fall afoul of this prohibition, because both provide no threat to Apple's closed system and get be crushed (or bought, if obedient enough) easily.

what catches my eye is the fact that this is basically blogspam taken from gizmodo. Interesting, no?

Amazing. Thank you.
all fictional, and so are the three "prophets"; but that's fiery territory and wp will never go there.
At least 4chan knows that the sum of the worlds knowledge is more than can be described in 3 million articles.
I for one SUPPORT the deletionists and think they are doing a great job maintaining only high quality material on WP. You know, things like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fictional_ducks
John Gruber has already started. Gotta love that guy.

vxice deserves the internets
if they make the same prohibitions about *how* you should code, then yes
Or people could start slipping from high balconies..

that's why people are comparing Apple's current CEO with Howard Hughes.
There are lines that you cannot legally cross, and Apple very well may have done so.
They do it indiscriminately; who cares? They even have their own iPolice to raid into blogger's homes.
Now awaiting for the john gruber wannabe acolyte zombies (see above) to mod me

The first thing you have to prove in a tying case is that Apple has market power.
1. Apple's market cap, today, is larger than wall-mart.
2. Interview (ex-)executives in the music industry.
Interview (ex-)executives in any media industry.
Apple is a market force and exerts monopoly power in media and app distribution.
everyone is EFFING scared of them
Of course, I really doubt anyone has numbers so accurate they need 64 bits to store them.
