Not sure if you're trolling or not (you probably are), but in 2nd and 3rd world countries Internet Cafes and cellphones are the primary means of Internet access...
If Firefox wants to be a cutting edge testing environment for whizbangs great, make that clear. If it wants to be used in production environments where long term stability and available time for internal test cycles trump access to whizbangs then this is bad.
1: You're missing the point. The point is that developers will move to browser independent webapps rather than writing an iPhone+blackberry app+htc touch app, etc. 2: Web browsers are not appropriate for everything, but they're becoming increasingly faster, and increasingly more appropriate for more intense tasks. 3: There's already lots of subscription websites - Mozilla need not do anything to support this - people can do this on their own. 4: The browser already has access to everything you listed: camera, accelerometers, GPS, and multitouch. And yes, the hardware is abstracted away by the platform and made available through a standard API.
That's fine by me, as long as there's choice just like abortion. No one is forcing you get an abortion or use animal tested products. But in the same sense no one should force companies to stop making sure products are safe because people like you happen to think bunnies are real cute.
That's exactly the point. Animals being tested on do not have a choice. If you could talk to the little bunnies and they said 'please test on me!' there would be no problem! It is wrong to do shiate to animals so Paris Hilton can say 'that's hot'.

Take a guess which one Mozilla cares about.
Regardless of who is setting the standard, it *is* an open standard, implementable by anyone who reads the spec. Flash is not. Big difference.
Because the full featured Firefox browser is coming to Android.

Isn't this more of a visualization than an instrument?
NOT +1 interesting. The FTP service is "Microsoft FTP Service".
That password would've been satisfactory if it was kept better.
How is shutting down for one day going to do ANYTHING?
I think things change when it's done on such a mass scale.
At least, they should change.
The best part is how there's a tattooed, built, guitar player playing EMO.
The reason people get so angry is because for years "unlimited" bandwidth has been advertised.
Angelo Lamme, from Motorola, said tracking students on a campus could help during a fire or an emergency.
And how exactly are you going to access the data if the school is on fire? I cannot think of any legitimate use for this.

Tamarin has a JIT compiler for faster execution of a lot of Javascript code. I imagine that is a big part of what is going to be intergrated.

The trademark problems discussed make the issue pretty clear.
You win the thread.
I learned more about America in the 1960s/1970s from those questions than I did from anything else, ever.

That is really, really, cool.
And are the games going to work as "well" as they do with Cedega?
Can a private corporation legally dictate what a news agency can and cannot say?
