Checking... WTF? Damn you HTML5, damn you to hell for doing it wrong. Not only do they use source elements, but they also have a poster attribute for failover to an image.
HTML5 is pissing me off more and more every single day. XTML2 why hast thou forsaken me!</rant>
Yes you are. It isn't a star because 8 times the mass of jupiter is not sufficient for sustainable fusion. It isn't even really in the size range for unsustainable fusion believed to occure during the formation of brown dwarves in the 13-80 jupiter range.
Actually, I have heard exactly those complaints. The first by grognards back in the day. The second by photographers that hate the idea that someone can right click and download an image off of their photo publicity website.
actually, you don't need to do any user agent sniffing at all.
Here is what you do. take your video tag in a common format, use it. If it fails, by web standards, the tag is supposed to default to the contents of the tag instead. Put a video tag inside that in a format supported on other browsers. If it fails, by web standards, the tag is supposed to default to the contents of the tag instead. Put your flash video object inside of that.
I get it now. You don't have a clue what I mean when I use the word "liberal".
You must think I mean a: tax-and-spend, pro police-state, anti-liberty, fascist, corporate-feudalist campaign-whore.
Maybe I am partly to blame as well for using the word "conservative" instead of: debt-and-spend, pro police-state, anti-liberty, fascist, corporate-feudalist campaign-whore.
All those sins you list are just as much a "conservative" sin as it is a "liberal" sin.
I AM a hardcore "libertarian" in many ways, I do agree with you on external oversight is required to restrict the harmful actions of corporations whose only charter is profit above all else.
Corporate person-hood isn't a liberal concept, it is a fascist concept.
The ASCAP is waging a war against culture, rationality and freedom. In war there are no rules, it only matters that you win. The time to play nice and be respectful is over. With all due respect, they are due negative.
They do already have a real product. The tesla roadster is being built and sold right now.
They also have a working prototype of their model S luxury sedan and need the capital to build their first mass production facility.
Its one thing to assemble a custom ordered high performance sports car by hand, but the semi-mass production required for a luxury sedan requires a factory.
Actually I am not. I fully support the use of fission as a major source of energy. It has several advantages over solar in that it is much harder to damage a nuclear plant than a solar plant. Combined, fission and solar (with a bit of support from wind/tide) will provide all the energy we could use for as long as I care to imagine.
It is not clear that fusion will ever be a viable energy source. We are not close to break even energy. Here is something else you may not know about fusion, the energy production rate per volume within the sun is about the same as the thermal output of a compost heap. To master fusion, we will need to operate at far higher energy densities than even the sun is capable of producing.
My point: store all state on the server, validate all user input.
His point: you don't have to store all state on the server, you can store some on the client if it is signed and you don't have to validate the input.
I get that, and its wrong.
1: there is no way to fix invalid state if the client is the one storing the state and not the server. This goes to my original point, the server must store all state and ensure that every request is valid. 2: The context is a multi-player browser based game. Yes, some aspects of game state are likely to be secrets because most multi-player games have state information that is to be hidden from other players (your poker hand, your list of powers, remaining hp, etc).
Any game state you store on the client in encrypted form will either require the client to have a key to decrypt it, defeating the security you want. Or it will be inaccessible to the client and will have to be retransmitted to the server with every action, and that defeats the purpose of having it on the client in the first place.
Hmm? The well water from my grandparents farm in Michigan in the early 80's was flammable. But as far as I know, it had been like that for at least a century.
Switching to natural gas is at best a temporary solution, buying us a few decades or a century at most. Fission can buy us many hundreds or even a few thousands of years. Of the technologies currently available, only solar offers a real long term solution for the bulk of our energy requirements.

Pringles don't come in piles. They come in neat little stacks.
So you would get all that and a stack of chips.

Corporate person-hood isn't a liberal concept, it is a fascist concept.
And rationality and human compassion argue FOR most of what so called conservatives do?
Yes. Yes they do.
The ASCAP is waging a war against culture, rationality and freedom. In war there are no rules, it only matters that you win. The time to play nice and be respectful is over. With all due respect, they are due negative.
I'm sorry, rationality and human compassion have a liberal bias.
That is precisely the plan.
Right now they are custom building high performance sports cars at $100k+.
They are planning on building a factory to produce a luxury sedan in the $50k range.
Here is at least one indication...
They do already have a real product. The tesla roadster is being built and sold right now.
They also have a working prototype of their model S luxury sedan and need the capital to build their first mass production facility.
Its one thing to assemble a custom ordered high performance sports car by hand, but the semi-mass production required for a luxury sedan requires a factory.
Its pretty damn hard to get a venture capitalist to hand over a quarter billion dollar for anything less than your eternal soul plus interest.
Bah, he should be an equal opportunity conspiracy nut like the rest of us.
Are you saying that microsoft doesn't have excellent tie-ups with cronies in high-levels?
I didn't RTFA, but if the summary is correct, is this not what most of the firefox critics have all been clamoring for?
A smoother and more reliable firefox without a boatload of shiny new features?

It's evilly delicious!
They also disagree to what group of corporate interests get to bend you over first, and which one has to settle for sloppy seconds.

No there is no such trick.
Any game state you store on the client in encrypted form will either require the client to have a key to decrypt it, defeating the security you want. Or it will be inaccessible to the client and will have to be retransmitted to the server with every action, and that defeats the purpose of having it on the client in the first place.
I guess that depends on if it was the widow or the dead husband who initially entered into the contract.
The entirety of the game state should be stored on the server and all user inputs should be validated on the server.
This won't stop people from botting your game, but it will keep the major chunk of blatant cheating to a minimum (at least on unmodified servers).
