The guy saying that you need a good graphics card to download pictures is like going to Best Buy and the guy says that you'll get a better picture with the gold plated $200 HDMI cable.
Makes sense. Cyanogen should stop shipping with those apps. They are available in the Market anyway. Everyone is happy. I just got a MyTouch 3g and have yet to root it. I hope Cyanogen is still around when I get the time. I want tether!
Palm was right. Apple is wrong. Its not about iTunes, its about the tons of 3rd party things out there (like my new Camaro) which only supports iPod or Zune. Palm could write a syncing program. Hell, its just a file system, you could use rsync.

Uhm...don't forget that Nokia LGPL-ed Qt, and recently is open sourcing Symbian.
So while of course there are also practical reasons for what Nokia is doing, don't, FFS DON'T, paint their actions like they're sleazy bastards that are conspiring against you!
Uhm... they probably LGPL'd Qt just so they can release closed source software linking against it.
If you have direct deposit and a debit / credit card linked to your checking account, all your money if virtual property.
Not to mention the fact that the Federal Reserve System can create it out of thin air... it might as well be completely virtual.
Microsoft like SEGA will survive after it's core product ends. Microsoft makes a lot of tools, these will still be used and profitable once Windows is gone (the thought of now more windows makes me giddy though)
I remember reading about that somewhere.
Firefox is actually faster sitting inside of a Windows VirtualBox than it is natively under Linux.
I think they were saying that the Linux version of Firefox was more advanced but that the Windows one had to fall back to frame buffers which happen to be faster.
They're expensive because the cost of something is directly related to the amount of energy used to create it. There was a report a while ago about how a Hummer was more eco-friendly than a Prius over the course of its life.
The batteries they use in them are expensive, harmful the the environment, and will need to be replaced in 2 or 3 years (if you still want 100 miles per charge).
Oh, thats right...you can't.
You can only rent them from Apple.
These renters are sheep.
Stop complaining. It won't do anything. Apple hates developers. Apple hates users who are anything more than mindless consumers (sheep).
Do something about it and buy an Android phone. Once enough people buy an Android phone Apple will allow VoIP applications and all of the Apple FanBoi's will be able to pretend like it was there all along and start bashing Android.
But seriously, keep buying Apple stuff. I need AAPL to hit $163.00 so I can sell the 6 shares I bought for $160 in January 2008 and break even after fees. I was just kidding. Apple is great. You're not sheep. You're hip and cool.
It's an interesting approach to a problem that should never have arisen. Why does everything have to be thrown into a 10MB dll? People are browsing on computers, not wristwatches, and there's no reason to abandon modular design to tangle things together for trivial performance gains.
Just because the end result is a 10MB dll doesn't mean that the code and design isn't modular. Thats like saying Linux isn't modular because the live CDs / DVDs come in a single gigantic 4.7Gb.iso file.
Make OGG required as part of the spec and 264 as optional.
If you want people to use your browser, implement both.
For those running websites... if you can afford the licensing fees for H.264 you can afford the storage of OGG as a fallback should 264 not be available in that browser.
It seems like they are encouraging doing elaborate things with this tag. I'm hoping that this won't escalate into what we have now with flash.
Even if it isn't as much of a resource hog for playing video, once people start rotating / clipping 20 videos on a single page it'll bring your system down.

This has been discussed on OSNews and it is most likely about the filesystem or FPU and not memory addressing.

The interviewer was an idiot.
The segway was an answer for nothing itself.
Now we have an answer to an answer to a question nobody was asking.

How about 6 projectors pointing in different directions running projectM visualizations of Pink Floyd.
Fixed that for you. You know you're on slashdot right?
Should have used django.
What executable? It didn't compile.
error: void value not ignored as it ought to be

Would be nice to see Visual Studio for Linux.
If its not open source, blame everyone.
If that doesn't work blame the user (for not using open source).
OMG... proprietary hardware, a proprietary OS, and a proprietary BIOS from 3 different vendors don't play nice together? Who would have thought?

The original Hulk movie had the canceled RAH 66 Comanche too.
Anything the hulk touches is doomed!/
That is a dumb argument.
You ever hear about security through obscurity?

The new macbook pro 17" does 1920x1200 on the same size screen so it must be possible to make a standalone monitor at that res/size
Macs have always been behind Dells. I have had a 15.4" 1920x1200 for over a year.

I saw some of the stuff they do with the video tag and tried it out on my machine. http://people.mozilla.com/~prouget/demos/
It seems like they are encouraging doing elaborate things with this tag. I'm hoping that this won't escalate into what we have now with flash.
