Perhaps someone at Adobe was told they have a golden opportunity to be a major player in the future of multimedia distribution. That someone probably doesn't want to see a decentralized or open multimedia distribution framework, and they would make sure Adobe has the opportunity to bring it to fruition themselves and be very profitable while they do it.
"One of the things I talk a lot about is the necessity to juggle all of the constituencies that have an interest in the business: shareholders, customers, employees, vendors, and the communities in which we operate. Those constituencies are all mildly in conflict with one another in terms of what's best for them. Your job as a leader in a company is to find an appropriate way to juggle those conflicting interests so everybody feels like they're getting a fair deal, without letting any one dominate the others because they'll drag your company down."
This long list of people who have a financial and power interest in the outcome of this little world; what they fail to see is that their customers and the artists are both used to getting things for free and the technology is only a placeholder for the culture. As soon as the technology is not capable of supporting it, they will find something else that will. Adobe is going to find that they didn't sell a multimedia format, they sold a SDK (Flash Pro, iirc) that offered the cheapest way for artists to work. When I say "sold" I mean provided to the market in one way or another.
I'm sure what will happen is Adobe will try to leverage their existing technologies to create a rights management framework on top or alongside the multimedia framework, something that will pay artists and charge customers. Most artists will find that not enough people are going to pay to play or not enough to pay for their investment. Adobe will be able to enforce use of their SDK using this rights management framework and will find soon afterward that artists can't pay either. With little customers left and a large number of artists looking for something to play with, I think you'll find that there will be plenty of people willing to create an artist friendly SDK on top of HTML5 that doesn't offer Adobe's DRM "services". Adobe will not be able to pay for the development of the monstrosity Flash will become when trying to mix security, super-DRM, other non-customer requested features, cross-platform support and a friendly UI.
That hippy propagandist trash, how dare those terrorist rebels attack a peaceful outpost on a forest planet. Those were our troops who gave their lives for the Empire.
>Ylmf OS - the rain forest the wind studio Anniversary Edition, to commemorate the rain forest the first anniversary of the dissolution of the wind studio, we have this special version of the interface, replaced by a fine imitation of the classic Windows theme, the interface operation of clean and clear.
So in summery, a fine imitation of the classic Windows theme, the interface operation of clean and clear.
This makes me wonder why they're targeting Amazon specifically. Perhaps a simple conspiracy between the liberal papers to short AMZN's record high stock?

Hahah, guess what. They teach English in Brazilian schools. I've had lengthy conversations with several Brazilians on Omegle.
Haven't you heard? We're the most productive people on the face of the planet.
Depends on your definition of "opensource"
More accessible means more vulnerable.
From what I've seen from commercials employing the likeness of dead actors, that line will be drawn at the exact point where it's most profitable.
iPhone OS? Is there even such a thing? you must be trolling.
who are you talking to?

Vim emulation for Microsoft Visual Studio:

My fear is that Microsoft will check in code in an effort to try to turn the project into a pipe dream of objects and interfaces.
Microsoft makes money, so obviously they would use this as a competitive advantage.
No, you got it all wrong. How are the local criminals supposed to compete with the Pirate Bay? This law was obviously created to protect their market.
more like pink collar. because we're all a bunch of pussies who get taken advantage of and won't stand up for ourselves. VIVA LA REVOLUCION!
Well... you could always not use it, and maybe use your own netbook?
I dunno, but it just seems to me that embedding a Turing machine into a website is just a bad idea no matter what you call it.

Knowing Germans, I suspect the reason for the higher quality is better craftsmanship.
