homestar runner is gone, tbh i think most flash animations are encoded as movies so they can go on youtube nowadays as well, it's just too easy not to do. it really is getting close to the end of flash, give it a couple of years.
"I build rockets go out to the desert and fire them into space." that's about 50 times more interesting than any other hobby i can think of off the top of my head.
i'm not reorganising that clusterfuck every time i reinstall or install a new app, i used to do that back in win 95 days but now i'd rather just jam stuff on quick launch
Erm, in none of the articles mentioned so far was it stated that Lindows didn't infringe on the Windows trademark, only that the trademark is not necessarily valid - even in the quote you just put in there it says "the trademark is not necessarily valid", feel free to make up whatever you like though, i'm done.
Daniel Harris, Lindows' lead trial counsel, said in a statement that the win was a major blow to Microsoft. "The court's ruling confirms that a company, no matter how much money it spends, cannot buy a word out of the English language. These repeated filings by Microsoft are just another attempt to deplete our resources by dragging these legal proceedings on for as long as possible."
i probably should have added that after this trial microsoft payed lindows 20 million dollars to change their name to linspire and protect their windows trademark.
there's nothing really stopping you programming your phone, however there is a bit of a barrier to entry on the iphone & windows phone (you need a mac and whatever apple's ide is called or a windows pc and a free copy of visual studio) but android is pretty open by default, and it's even feasible (not easy or fun) to write programs directly on the phone.
yeah, the whole thing where MS is moving to html5 feels like they're trying to compete on merit rather than lockin which is pretty cool, i doubt the different MS departments will be able to not screw each other over and mess the whole thing up though
Dude, there is no way i would want to put my SSN into any page if my browser is compromised with spyware. Sounds like you don't even really understand what javascript is.
i'd say spiking water supplies with something that destroys some part of the reproductive process would probably be more effective, simpler and cheaper.
so shooting yourself over going bald is different to starving yourself because you think you're fat because they should know better by that age? i'm not saying they don't have issues (who doesn't) but issues are not age restricted, you don't suddenly become a functional human being at 30.
maybe you should visit kids with anorexia and give them your spectacular insight into self image, i'm sure it would be way more helpful than you shutting the fuck up.
Open or closed is irrelivant, paying developers to do work is what matters, especially when most people don't care about or are openly distrustful of the project.
How is keeping the thin client updated any different from keeping any standard set of programs updated on the computer?
we do weekly updates to our web apps, i shudder to think how you'd roll that out to hundreds of computers, laptops and mobile devices when it takes us something like 10 minutes per application to push them to the production server.

heh, i use about 20 icons on my quick launch, how many apps are you actually using?
searching by looking through that stupid folder structure is about 50 times harder than typing "ftp" or whatever into a box

because before patents it was impossible to invent things...

you don't know what you're talking about http://www.silicon.com/technology/software/2004/02/11/lindows-wins-in-us-court-microsoft-ruling-39118328/
you don't want diseases, rationally you probably want some kind of government so your comparison fails
if they make it so you can't just turn off the security feature and install linux the European union will smash the shit out of them.

i really doubt you'd be able to recompile a c++ app targeted at winforms on x86 to run on arm
Hah, my old boss' favorite was "I thought you fixed that already"
Actually it's not true of go either, it's open source

i'm saying self image is serious enough to starve you to death, you say just get over it. it's the same thing.

that's the one good thing about the ribbon, it forced me to learn a shitload of keyboard shortcuts.
