No, not their trackpads. When it comes to pointing devices, Apple and me are the exact opposites. There's only one good pointing device: a mouse with 3 or more clicky buttons where one is a scrollwheel. Nice an tactile. And preferably with hardware DPI switch.
You can develop these games with the open source flex framework. You write actionscript code and get all the resources (images etc...), and compile it all into one swf file that works everywhere.
This is the thing I find weird: Adobe made the developer tools to create an swf open source, but not the player to view them...
> For games it was almost usable, for video it was and still is horrid.
That's a lie! All games on Newgrounds and other such websites work perfect, even in multiplayer etc.... And for video: Youtube also always worked perfectly with Flash.
I created a few games in Flash for playing in a webbrowser, and for the lols I also tried it on an Android, and it worked quite well actually! Sad to see it go.
Flash allows creating a complete game with all graphics, audio, etc... in a single file, that works the same on almost all platforms. This is quite handy. So I really wish Flash to stay strong, and, have a fully perfect open source player (in other words, have the official player itself be open source).

Gah! Someone posted this during the same minute as me!

Always read the archlinux website before doing pacman -Syu, if there are expected problems with the upgrade it gives instructions how to avoid them.

Oh yeah? Then what do you think your brain is? Do you really think the only way to ever produce one is exclusively through human reproduction?
I don't see anything 80s in the logo personally... If the colors were CGA colors, then maybe...
I like the 1980-1981 on the most! Why did they keep that one only the shortest time?!
Hmm, the rightmost t touches the right side, that is a bit ugly, there should be some padding on the right imho
Hopefully this will cause PC monitors to also get that resolution.
Since the current low resolution of PC monitors seems to be inspired by "HD" too.
I didn't mean binary encoding, I mean two possibilities (two memory storage locations).
Does this mean you store text in non-song form in a different location than text in song-form?
Since that looks like a binary decision: how much melody is required for the sudden switch from the one storage location to the other?
Got any examples?
Well, to be honest, I can find examples myself, there are still things about science that I find really exciting, such as LHC and the mars landers :)
Imho, too much science these days is just vague statistical studies.
Where are the times when science was about actually discovering new things, where you could actually see the effect of it?
I vaguely remember I've seen such "double" articles before on /., so I think it's just some kind of bug or easy to make mistake in the /. interface.
Newer New Novel Super Mega Mario Bros. Remastered Extended Uncut 3, Classic Edition.
It's less like a desktop PC keyboard now. And that's sad.

The interesting thing is, this is the first time Apple sets a trend that I (who is not your average consumer) actually want: high resolution screens.
> Do you get excited when you see unset concrete too?
Unset concrete on Mars!
EDIT: But with the good tools to create these games, Adobe earns cash so ...

I don't understand this hate! Most games that work on Linux are written in Flash.

Is that soccer fields or rugby (aka american football) fields?
I think there may be some floating point error in there.
