No wait, even if we have a video that ran at one million frames per second all we would see is an immobile object. At two million frames per second we would see it move instantly by 180 degrees...
How did they calculate that 60 million rotations per minute again?
Make the dots of a braille keyboard quite a bit bigger and lots of people will browse porn in braille. You would only need two dots on your keyboard too.
And those subtitles are not only useful for the HOH/deaf, they're useful for people trying to watch foreign language movies or just let us understand actors with a thick accent.

Except that sometimes the new features take another turn and then the book becomes useless.
Look at HTML5 file uploads via XHR2... Firefox went one way, Chrome/Safari went another way. From what I understand Firefox won't be the new standard, but that method could be what is described in the book. I won't help you once Opera supports the Chrome/Safari way and once Firefox switches to that new method.
Too bad there's other drivers on the road, otherwise I'd say "let them text while driving until they're dead".
Driving a car is not a right, it's a privilege. You're supposed to know how to drive safely. I know it would cost a lot but the roads would be safer if everyone was forced to pass a driving test every year or so. Even once a decade would be better than the "pass the test once, drive until you're dead" formula that we have now.
As in, the game will only use standards such as HTML5, WebGL, Javascript and CSS?
If it requires a plug-in, then why bother making it "browser-based" at all? If I can't play on both my Mac mini and my iPod touch, it's not browser-based.

It's not like pirates don't have access to H.264 encoders either... and those el-cheapo 30$ circa 2005 hardware DivX players surely can't have any life left in them by now.
A standard H.264 file can be played on AppleTV, iPods, iPhones, iPads, PS3, PSP, Xbox360 and I'm sure I'm forgetting dozens of cellphones and other hardware such as Roku.
Another thing, as you say, is that it's easier to distribute smaller files. So I am honestly wondering why are they sticking with the old DivX format.
That's the point right there. You didn't buy any Xvid files, you made them yourself. And since you know how to do it, just re-do it in a more standard format like H.264/AAC instead of Xvid.
That's why it's the last on my list. Opera has some catching-up to do too, last time I tested a few things, Chrome and Safari ran fine but Opera hadn't implemented them yet, such as HTML5 file uploading (for client-side progress bars).

What about Jar Jar stepping on the moon without any suit to protect him from the void of space?
or maybe 30k RPS?

How is 229$USD half of 299$USD?
That's not strikes, that's coffee breaks!

We have to pay our driving license every year here in Quebec (used to be every two years), not sure about the rest of Canada.

Would you prefer Dihydrogen monoxide instead?
I'm sorry but First Contact happened in 1996.
Maybe they're here to build a hyperspace bypass...

You seem to assume that these guys are using Windows, with auto-run enabled on top of that.
We can't?! Let's sue Sony and Microsoft!

Of course he does. Java can do sine and cosine in 12 parsecs!

That's a joke, right? Do you really expect Internet Explorer to run cutting-edge web stuff?
Try Chrome, Safari, Opera or Firefox.
UzeBox?
As I said, basically zero. Even if you could find a list of 1000 legal files, that would still not be enough for Apple to bother.
MP3 was another story entirely, especially since audio CDs don't have any DRM or protection on them. DVDs are another matter.
