  1. Re:They are not... on How the iPad Is Already Reshaping the Internet (Sans Flash) · · Score: 1

    I bought a website for showcasing my photography because it was compatible with the iPhone even though for normal computers it renders everything in flash. The lack of flash for some is making money for the web. When I find the right iPad for me I'll also know my site runs off the device easily when I show clients my work.

    "The only valid censorship of ideas is the right of people not to listen." - I don't know who said it but it seems the simplest solution.

    For many years I couldn't sleep on my side (i'm only 29) so I'm not sure how it happened but after a few minutes of lying on my side it would hurt. I learnt to sleep absolutely still lying on back. Then I had to do a photography project about medicine, I spoke to my friend who was a chiropractor and while we were waiting for patients to photograph he gave me a free session. He clicked my spine so hard I started to laugh and since then I can sleep anyway I like, its amazing to have that freedom (no doubt you feel free as well by orders of many magnitudes). I couldn't believe it when I told him I could sleep like normal again and he was puzzled that he treated such a long standing problem because he was just showing me how he treats people. Anything to do with the spine and nerves I believe Chiropractory works wonders and I've been back to him twice for 5 bucks a go (mates rates ;)). Anything else like the above from the parent I don't believe can be treated nor is it something my friend said he could treat. Some of them are just bad apples in order to lie to people.

    Secret, not secrete. Secrete has a totally different word use.

    No, I think the parent makes a good point. The aliens are remarkably different from the two different trilogies. It doesn't matter if you're a child or not, as an adult we can see the difference between the treatment of the aliens.

    Sparrow Orange makes all his own music in the safety of his home and sells them on iTunes of all places. I have all his albums and as far a I know has signed with a minor label. Word of mouth made me aware of him.

    The U's are necessary, it's the extra n's, e's and roaming c's in 'unnessecary' you have to watch out for.

    This is what happens when you buy organic, you forget how shiny Apples were! I thought Apple were the only ones selling shiny Apples now, another niche market they've conquered!

    Not that shiny shiny.

  12. Re:True for the iPod, yes. on Apple's Trend Away From Tinkering · · Score: 1

    I wish I could remember the quote. But sometimes people seek out the big conspiracies because the truth is rather boring. Truth is Apple has a philosophy applied to the iP* products that is different to their general computing products. Nothing else move along everybody.

    Excuse me but who else sells a shiny Apple?

  14. Re:Can someone explain to me why people buy this c on Amazon Pulls Book Publisher's Listings; Ebook Wars Underway? · · Score: 1

    I don't want the bulk personally, I don't like having loads of possessions, all my music and film is digital. I haven't bought any ebooks yet either. So i'm happy to sit on the side lines for the moment. As long as I get Copy and Paste and the ability to highlight text within an ebook then I'll be happy. I want features that go beyond the paperback, adding value and making it worth the price.

    Because admittedly the US healthcare system is a bigger but boring beast to whine about and take action towards.

    "Gets" not "get's". There is no ownership. "I have Andy's car" for example.

    There is no correlation. How simple minded are you? Just accept that gays are everywhere and they will be harder to coral when the revolution begins than you think!

  19. Re:This makes perfect sense on Google Phone Could Drive Apple Into Allegiance With Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Apple had enough money when Microsoft gave them some more. I think it had more to do with perception, the largest maker of business software stood by and support the mac platform. Thats it nothing more.

    Apple have redefined the mobile market and everybody wants to do a phone like the iPhone. They also don't need to own the market to be a success, just make a profit, which is a damn sight more than what Nokia is doing.
