fucked up as it is, i'd kinda like to hear about a kid walking home from that school get abducted just so we could see the school try to explain why there was no proper supervision on their property...
that's kind of how i was looking at it as well; if i'm opening a video it's because i want to watch it. i can see that that may not always be the case. embedded video isn't going away because many designers like the vid as an element to the page layout. maybe a good solution would be to have an option in the browser to have an external player handle video instead of embedded on the page. now i'd kind of like to see a ff extension to move video to it's own tab...
i'm not sure what you're getting at here. are you saying you'd rather click a link to have a media player launch to handle video? for myself, i'd prefer to have the embedded video; you can leave it at the size it loads or full-screen it if you prefer. it's a nicer interface for the end user as they don't have to launch another app. i'd take the smooth integration of embedded video any day.
i suppose you could always just use lynx if you don't want all that multi-media in your browser. unless i'm reading you wrong, your idea seems like a big step backwards (from my perspective).
well hey, i know if someone proclaimed themselves to be a leader of people with the same skin pigmentation as me, and then told me i shouldn't say a word because it's a magical word, why i'd hop right on that bandwagon. by the way, how's that situation shaping up?
maybe it's just difference in *how* i get my work done, or the type of work i use it for, but i've never understood all the people who yell and scream about the u.i. in adobe products. i've spent the last ten years or so in production art rooms; photoshop and illustrator are my daily tools (indesign from time to time as well) and i'm perfectly happy with the interface. nowadays i do most of my work on a 13" laptop screen, and even with this little real-estate i can always find the tools i need when i need them. i'd actually have to say that photoshop is probably the most logically laid-out u.i. i've used, but maybe that's because i've been on it since v3.
i also don't have the system resource issues i hear so many others complain about. i've got a dual core with 2gb ram and as i type this i have a gb or so of psd open and a couple small illustrator files on the go, and it's all smooth sailing for me.
back on topic, kudos to the adobe guys for the release. keep up the good work.
slow to reload, hard to conceal (compared to your typical small caliber hand gun), $10+ per round that you probably don't want to go retrieve from a corpse...but yeah, those issues aside, those are some dope-ass arrow heads.
really, mods? how is this even remotely interesting? it's kind of like telling someone they can save money on steaks by buying in bulk, and getting the reply "well i don't even like beef, so i fail to see how i'm saving money". if you don't want the thing we're talking about, your opinions on the pricing of said thing aren't required.

entirely different matter. the only thing the chip on a mac does is confirm to the os that it's genuine apple hardware. it's entirely invisible to the end user and i've never seen a single problem with a mac that could be traced to that particular chip (going back to os8.6). in addition, i've never seen a mac fail to accept a hardware upgrade on normal user-replaceable parts (hd, ram, vid card, sound card) or have one ask me to validate the os after a hardware upgrade. true, you can't install osx out of the box on non-apple hardware, but it's not sold retail as an os for commodity hardware. additionally, i've never had an issue booting linux or windows on an intel apple machine.
i've had more than one paid-for copy of windows make me do the activation dance. this has not happened to me on osx yet. my anecdotal evidence indicates to me that there is no apple genuine advantage software running on my computer.
for what it's worth, they make nice computers. i've been using macs for graphics work since os 8.6ish and i've loved every one i've worked on; my macbook is without a doubt the best computer i've ever owned.
with all that said, i agree with you. i'll never buy another ipod (first one was stolen) because i don't like the restrictions. same reason i didn't buy an iphone when i last upgraded phones. same reason i won't buy an ipad (god i wanted that thing to run osx so bad...).
but yeah, they hate us and i hope they don't ever ruin osx like they've ruined what could have been a bunch of really cool mobile devices.
DSMI is a library for building midi apps on the Nintendo DS and the iPhone, and also a server for win/linux/osx machines to swap data with the apps over the network. Also supports the newly-emerging OSC. There are already a few apps for the iPhone, so getting them running on the iPad (worst. name. ever.) should be trivial. It's pretty much the only reason I want one.
the next step from MIDI is OSC. higher precision and networkable are my two favourite features. lots of small/homebrew stuff already supports it (plogue bidule, dsmi, iphone apps), and Native Instruments has support for it in some of their newer gear, though i hear the support is spotty and not too well documented. if you're on a mac there's OSCulator that acts as an OSC host, passing data to/from your midi hosts. there's also work being done to get it running in Ableton Live with some python scripts. I'm eager to see it supported natively in all the major DAWs in the near future.
the article mentions bb and other smartphones. i wouldn't pin too much blame on bb for this. my (non vzw) bb still works just the same, and it's definitely a great device.
if you're talking about using a brush for strokes in illustrator and turning those to outlines, try object>expand or object>expand appearance instead of object>path>outline stroke.
i don't think it's fair to say "has proposed forcing abortions and putting sterilants in the drinking water to control population", even with your addendum, when "has written educational material on the subject of putting sterilants in the drinking water to control population" would have been much more honest. to state that he "proposed" those things is to make it sound as though he's presented it before officials for consideration, as in "made a proposal". i also don't see any backup for the claim of "forcing abortions" but i haven't read any of the links.
as funny as that would be, i don't want to see google getting into the habit of cutting off *anyone*. as long as the information is indexable, they should display it. let murdoch be a baby and block it from his own end with robots.txt if he wants, but don't play childish games with children. they should just ignore him.
You have to pay the $30 unlimited web plan and to tether it is another $30/mo but i'm not sure if they are two different caps or if they both share the same cap
so then the additional $30 is what they charge you, per month, to connect your laptop to your phone with usb or bluetooth?! can anyone explain to me why it matters to my service provider if my 5gb per month goes directly to my phone, or if it goes through the phone to my laptop?

sure, sure. if me and thirty other people in the room wanna rape you and your mom, you're the one making a fuss by objecting.

do you have any pamphlets? did you secure vc yet? you need to get on this, man; you're sitting on a goldmine!
wow, i hadn't even thought that far ahead. that creeps me right the fuck out. thanks.

in your second sentence, replace "immature" with "black". we could take the time to reword the first sentence too, but i hope you get the point....

so boskops had an iq of 100 in 10,000 b.c.e., but adusted for inflation it would be about 150 of our present-day iq dollars?

your assumption appears to be that the people responsible for setting up the system see the end result as a "problem". this may be flawed.
