how are you not getting this?! if you want a movie that was produced for less money, go buy the smurfs. you don't think the avatar producers tried their best to create the content for as little as possible already?
the disgusting "denialist" liar i referenced did not remove any data points from his sensor logs like the disgusting "denialist" liar whom his article was about, and you are defending, did.
i don't understand how you could have a problem understanding that.
if i have a sloppy joe stand, and don't provide napkins, i have created a market for napkins. if someone else starts up a napkin stand next to me, i might be compelled to buy them out to have full control over the leveraging.
the only recourse a consumer has is not to make a purchase, or to make a purchase from someone else.
the avatar producers don't sell the players though... even if it is a giant conspiracy... or one of their parent companies does... caveat emptor... the consumer shouldn't have bought a player for an unstable/changing spec.
my point was that the business may not be viable enough to ever spend a certain amount of money if subsets of people are not sometimes not allowed* to view the movie they have bought.
* i'm using your definition of "allowed" which seems to be: utilize a player that does not fully implement the spec required by the media.

not too many independents putting up $250M to make one piece of content though... so in the end, the only failure relative to the consumer was to himself. he didn't get the content he wanted.
from the linked page: "TLS and SSL encrypt the segments of network connections at the Transport Layer end-to-end."
i have a complete understanding of what SSL/TLS actually are... they enable the contents of email messages transferred by web based servers to be encrypted.
so again... how does "encryption is basically impossible" apply to web based email providers? encryption is trivial. you apparently have a cross wired understanding of what sender verification and encryption actually are.
Tacky that his first point is that Flash is proprietary, when Apple restricts the apps that can be installed on the phone. Pot, meet kettle.
how is that tacky? this is an opinion piece written by a person... to that person, apples products are not proprietary... he has full control over them. if they need to be updated to make something else he owns work, he can do it. flash, on the other hand, is very proprietary to him, and if he needs to update it to make something else he owns work, he can't do it...
seems like a pretty valid point, and not tacky at all.
yeah, from the summary and the title of the response, it seems it does not disprove the previous claims, rather it just presents itself as a response for a responses sake.
i had excellent karma, then suggested that educators paying children cash to read books was a cowardly last ditch effort by teachers unable or unwilling to do their jobs.
i defended my position and was further moderated into karma:terrible land... makes me wonder if this moderation system is broken. there should be a limit to the negative potential per thread or even per story... otherwise, discussion on hot topic issues is too dangerous if you at all respect the "karma" variable.
anyways, in the late 90s i ran a few 1M+ daily sites and even then $10+ CPM was unheard of. i always used a 3rd party though, so maybe direct sales have higher rates, but i suspect it all evens out after you are done paying your sales team and lawyers and chasing advertisers down to pay their bills, etc...
i'm too lazy to look for old stories, but i swear this is the 4th or 5th "first full face transplant" story i've read in the last 5 years. i remember the pictures from a previous story and it didn't look good.
i'm pretty sure TooMuchToDo meant he would set the firewall to only allow connections to the netflix streaming servers... so sony couldn't just send the update over the same port, the update would have to come from the netflix streaming servers directly.
yes, we can agree that paying students to do what teachers ask of them is a cowardly last ditch effort by lazy educators unable or unwilling to do their jobs.

some individuals are more talented than others.
that's what i'm saying though... "blu-ray" as it is today isn't the "blu-ray" that was implemented by the player's manufacturer.

8 million hits might have fetched them $10-12k max.
he didn't remove any data points from his sensor logs...
colo a 1U server at a data center... not that expensive, and then you can customize in ways that best fit the individual circles.
man, glad you can finally read about it.
i consider removing data points because they don't fit the proposed model as lying.

what about the cloud?

Carpet cloaks are relatively easy to make because the dielectric material does not need to be specially constructed to steer light in special ways
how is it a "flaw" to not have a feature it was designed to not have?
a hardcoded key to a remote procedure call server is not security through obscurity.
