i agree with you that there is a market of deluded android fanbois. so I guess that means you have the ipad 95% market and the android fanboi 5% market. maybe they have too much money so they throw some away on inferior hardware and software. more power to them.
dude, the real story here is about nexus 7 vs ipad mini. everybody's excited about the 7, but ipad mini will eat its lunch. amazon and b&n will be just fine, because people choose it for the feature set not the form factor.
Umm, the difference is that your 6month old android can't run the newest operating system, while the 3 yeRs old iPhone cN run the the newest operating system on day one. I'm glad you think there's no differentiator here, because otherwise you'd be pretty pissed thT you have N android.
I don't understand the limited uses argument. My iPad has always-on cellular and gps, and is always downloading my mail evewhen "asleep". It takes me less than a second to know if I have mail and scan for important messages. Presumably, I could have teh same functionality on my laptop. Open it form sleep. Insert cellular modem, wait for that to connect. Wow load mail. But that's like a couple mins when I can literally do it on my iPad in a sec while riding the bus. This doesn't even get into the gps maps, which is an amazing tool that laptops can never match.
From my perspective, the iPad has some limited uses compared to the laptop, but has some extraordinary additional uses too.
I think a better way of putting it would be, for 35 years, the detail in computer graphics was limited by technology constraints, not gameplay constraints. The RTFS author proposes that the technology has improved to the point where the limiting factor is gameplay quality.
remember that game LIMBO? that was a cool game. But also, Arkham City? That was a cool game.
proof:/. is filled with people who think they are "knowledgeable" when in fact they are just fanboi h8rz. they think they are "enlightened" and "unbiased" and could right all of the wrongs in the patent system, when in fact they just want to force others to use their preferred companies. Before you reply "I know you are but what am I?" i'm not saying that I would be any better. I'm saying that the current situation of blank slate juries is the way to go.
Who is the innovator? Apple invented the iPhone and iPad. Samsung invented the.. Galaxy and galaxy tab? I'd much rather the patent system favor the apples of the world than the samsungs of the world.
So it is better if the jury themselves has all sorts of biases and no clear idea about how the law works, like you? Maybe twelve angry men shouting ROUNDED RECTANGLES!
Often the burden of proof for obviousness is "the opinion of a lay person of that field." I am not a patent lawyers, but I have dealt with framing images and prints, and have been for years.
technically, in this case "that field" refers to consumer electronics, not Aaron bros framing stores.
No, "implied" means something that you said, and "inferred" means something that you interpreted. You "implied" that the judge could not be impartial because she made a prior ruling in this case. What about referees? A ref throws a red flag on one team, so he must be biased for the rest of the game? I await your response.
I'm very optimistic. I'm niether an apple or a google fanboy, but I have a strong interest in patents, to encourage companies to continue to make awesome products. I'mm pretty sure that when apple gets some support from the law, they will continue to invest in their iUniverse.
It matters if the number of bots on FB are greater elsewhere or greater than average. The average value of an ad is determined by figuring in the VerGe number of bots. If FB has way more bots, them their ads R parrots far less and Dvertisers shouldn't be paying.
The subtext here is that Zuck is setting up bots to drive his company revenues up.

I read once, and if I don't get it I move on. 99% of the time the person is being illogical. No point in wasting my time on crazies.
Jebus, this guy is a wordy mofo.

1. I do not think that word means what you think it means
2. [citation needed]. That would be an awesome YouTube video!
The editors are he worst trolls on slashdot.
tl;dr. I can't stand real-time information flow - too slow, I get impatient.

Also, always on gps and cellular, and Downloading mail while "asleep". Awesome functions that a laptop can't do.

Delta is replacing all of its paper flight manuals with iPads.
I'm really busy with important matters and don't have time to respond to yr post, so let me just say, you're an idiot.

computer graphics is the only area of science where if it looks right, it is right.
umm... computer graphics science.
