Yes fair wage is fluid depending on the cost of living. No, that does not mean our viewpoint is only valid here. The former being the valid principle of economic relativity, and the latter the disgusting principle of absolute moral relativity, previously used to justify segregation, discrimination and slavery. Certain morals may be different, but to claim that they all are up for debate is dangerous.
Not only does Apple restrict you to compiling your code in c, c++,objective c with the iphone sdk, they prohibit any code that was not originally written in one of those languages. The article would make sense, if the only restriction Apple had in place was that they code be compiled by the iphone sdk. That is not the case, as far as I know.
Avid had a free version of its software that I found usable for my juvenile purposes. But it looks like they've ended that.

Nobody I know has any of those and only a few even know what they are. That's not the level of wide, I'm talking about. I probably interact with close to 200 people per week. NONE of them have any of those devices (t hey do have iphones, androids, video/touch ipods, non smart phones) . They would not be upset if those devices did not support a new video codec.
Oh, right, I forgot, under modern antitrust laws you're allowed to be a total anti-competitive asshole until you become the 800lb gorilla
Sure, if Modern means 20th century. But still odd, as monopolies weren't constrained before then. I mean, its like saying that "modern cars can't fly". Very funny if you use it in the right context, but I think you were trying to make a point about the increasing power of companies. Or the hypocrisy of correctly applying an existing old law.
Look at the post just above yours. I'd agree google apps sucked. But, it would be wise to withhold judgement on the new version to see how much better it can be with HTML 5.
What an interesting mismatch of fact, propaganda, and ignorance.
Where to start?
* Pre soviet Russia, was very backwards. Look at their performance in WW I where they showed up with ancient weaponry.
* It was a super power, no other way to describe a country that controlled half of the world, put the first man & satellite in space and was capable of destroying the world umpteen times over.
* Yes, it was a super power *AFTER* WW I, not before or during.
* And finally, being a super power doesn't mean you are a nice guy. If that's a requirement to super power, then yes it was not a super power.
I neither endorse nor condone any violent actions the Soviet Union performed during its history, but your account was just too messed up to leave un commented upon.
Well, all of the ones near me are really, really slow. And they are obviously running windows, and didn't do much to cover up that fact. I guess I have a lower threshold for insecurity than you. Its really sort of odd, because BoA's webiste is pretty good.
Anyone know how current law handles that? There are restrictions on the amount an individual can donate to a candidate. Can a wealthy newborn baby also contribute to a campaign? I would assume it would work similar to the way it already works. There are laws for the amounts individuals can contribute, and prohibitions against non citizens donating.
Well, mary ann, My fingers have minds of their own. Its actuallibly quite an encramplishment to type anything at all. The synchronastity to keep them all on the same task is quite difficable. They suffer from split brain syndrome, otherwise known as senor cargage syndrome.
Arm would be the most logical choice, if they didn't decide that i38x and amd64 weren't enough.

You know, growing up, I used to do archery a lot at summer camp. When ever we would accidentally hit the wrong target, or anything other than the target we were aiming for, we'd cry out "That's exactly what I was aiming for". It was obvious BS that was funny. But people still try doing that like the parent post. If a product doesn't suit your needs then well, it must be intentionally not aiming for you. Its not the products fault it doesn't suite you , its your fault for not being the target!
Of course, the opposite was equally practised, and even funnier. Sometimes, a friend would hit the bullseye, then it would be required to claim that he was really aiming for the tree. This is more rare to see in tech circles. People are smart enough, and don't have the same sense of humour that kids do to claim it. Usually, when people make the "aiming for" statement its of the first kind: psuedo marketing BS.
In addition to What the other replier said, I was saying that their lockdown cannot be justified in terms of security due to there not being a problem with other Operating systems that do not prevent adding non vendor approved programs. In terms of them being able to do what they want to with their product, sure they can do it for just that reason, but don't spit on me and tell me its raining.
The iphone's lock down is not justified until you can show a real problem with people installing problematic software on to their unrestricted device, like an Android phone. Windows mobile was never great, but it was unrestricted. How many viruses or exploits have you ever heard about from them?
Not trolling. Just commenting some obvious facts in a succinct manner while glossing over the intricacies. Yes, me culpa, me culpa, me maxima culpa, Java is not memmory worry free. It is *Less* of a worry.
That's not an advantage to python. Java is nearly as fast as c, easier to write, no chance for manual memory screw ups. I prefer python, myself, but not for your reasons.
Rocky/Star wars/Matrix/Harry Potter were all creator driven. Not studio driven. Stallone/lucas/Washoski/(whatever the author of the potter books' name is) created those stories and wanted to tell more. You should be criticizing series like the terminator/ any of the comic book movies that only really exists to make money
Sweet! Tell that to the above poster that thinks everyone agrees its illegal. yes it is. Your argument is not worth dissecting. I'm only interested as far as it helps me with another argument I'm having with a different poster.
Good point. Although, by mentioning in the summary that I'd do it, I think its pretty easy to infer that I also think it might be immoral under most cases.
You also might want to reconsider your use of unverified absolutes. "Everybody" is quite a strong claim. I'm pretty sure I can find you a statistically significant group of people willing to dispute the illegality of file sharing.
1) I agree that the majority of file sharing is illegal.
2) I agree that the media companies are pretty evil. I should learn all I can about them and they should learn all they can about me. They need help figuring out the best ways to curb piracy, and make their own offerings more palatable to the general public. They should be allowed to make money for their work, but their should be harsher limits on their control of media. If they want me fighting for them, they'll need to agree to reform.

Its just a little concerning that they decided to advertise how easy it is to take pictures of your body parts and send them to people.
Mod up, even if he is new here.

Name a portable device that supports video that is in wide circulation and not an iphone/ipod touch.
I can't really think of any. Maybe the android phones? The fastest of them: droid, nexus one, ext might be fast enough to do it in software.

And I suggest you do not use them either. They just operate and behave wrongly, even when they don't have malware installed.
They're slow. -- ATM's in the 80's were faster.
They're obviously running window XP. -- The standard windows sounds are used.
You still smell like pea soup.

You also might want to reconsider your use of unverified absolutes. "Everybody" is quite a strong claim. I'm pretty sure I can find you a statistically significant group of people willing to dispute the illegality of file sharing.
Two reasons:
1) I agree that the majority of file sharing is illegal.
2) I agree that the media companies are pretty evil. I should learn all I can about them and they should learn all they can about me. They need help figuring out the best ways to curb piracy, and make their own offerings more palatable to the general public.
