I think probably as time goes on the flash games will get competition from HTML5. There may not be a version of Dsktop Tower Adaefense yet, but there will be sooner or later.
The lack of a particular game does not prove that Flash is better than HTML5.
The FED is doing everything they can to cause inflation. Low low interest rates, with little lending, is not helping anybody. Higher interest rates would help a lot of people, and would encourage somebody to buy our bonds.
Who buys a bond or a CD with a yield less than inflation? Oh, that's right, the FED itself is now buying bonds. That should be a big clue for you there.
The FED is not looking out for your interests. It is a private bank, owned by member banks, some of which are foreign.
Perhaps they are disappearing due to massive pollution and the owls eating prey that has been munching on and concentrating poison.
I really find it difficult to believe that kids getting owls are indeed at fault. However, thanks to the captive population that will become established, maybe India will be able to reintroduce its owls once they stop polluting their environment as badly as they are now.
No, inflation is not necessary for the economy to grow. Inflation economies punish savings, and inflation-proof economies punish savings and push people toward investing (read gambling) in the market (read casino) to maintain their worth.
If you care to look at how the currency worked, it was unnecessary to "back" a gold or silver coin with anything. Gold and silver coins being currency in those days, they were their own backing.
Basic economics is what got us into this mess, starting on Jekyll Island in 1913. Experimental, wet-dream banker economics.

But where's our new hyper advanced LISP machines?
Nothing will beat the Symbolics Lisp machine. Clozure is great, but not quite there yet.
Pandora's box, and all that. Once they get a bailout, they will need another soon. This will only stop once there is no money left for bailouts.
Somehow I think the next bailout will have easier terms for the banks. Pretty soon, there'll just be a banking tax and it will not be a loan but a gift.
GNUstep has a lot of potential. However, there is a paucity of applications actually written for GNUstep in Objective-c and it is really going nowhere.
They should freeze the main libraries and infrastructure, and contrite on getting a nice web browser made. This is one thing that does not really exist yet. Yeah, you can run FireFox under Windowmaker, but it's ugly and bad. What they need is a lean, mean, webkit-based browser that is like a lite version of Safari.
In parallel applications the total performance per watt, among all ores, is what counts. Today, you can take a number of ARMs and equal the performance of the intel solution at a lower total wattage.
Intel is starting to feel the heat from ARM. Sooner than later datacenters will be running on ARM processors, and doing the same work per time unit at a fraction of the power cost.
This is a new market that they wish to stomp on before it can get started.
It seems that you don't really understand what is going on here. A person you who isn't your Facebook friend can take a picture of you at a strip club (or whatever) and post it on their Facebook, and tag you in the photo.
Then your morally superior boss can look at the photo and fire you.
It's not really difficult to understand why people are pissed off at Facebook.

HTML5 does most of what Flash does. Have a look around, people are doing some pretty amazing stuff with it.
Flash is turdware and was jet getting worse with each release. If Adobe had their say, everything would be in Flash and that is not acceptable.
Time to clean house, and this bloated Flash monster is the first thing to go.
Because the majority supported him.
Hell I didn't but I would trade in Obama for Bush in a heartbeat.
An. "agreement?". The reason that Apple does not allow flash on iOS is because it sucks.
The acceptable substitute is HTML5 and this is just a fact. Go cry hot yr momma and learn how to use new tools, you flashtard.
Nice screed. How does your doomsaying prediction square with Apple being a large contributor to open source projects?
Apple doesn't want granny's iPad infected with malware bloat shit apps. This is fine by me.
Walled garden, and uhh, freedoms and uhh, etc. Fuck off with your tired shit.
Because Firefox is just horrifically ugly and slow?

You are several times more likely to be stabbed though. That seems enjoyable.
Also, if you government goes Nazi you won't be able to effectively fight back with your tea tray.
When has Apple sued anybody because of negative comments regarding their comments?
That's just crazy talk.

Grand total inflation when gold and silver were the currency (between 1776 and 1913) was 14%.
Since then, it is tough to estimate, but at least a thousand percent.
Yeah, and they need another one now.

Ever heard of Apple's Automator?
It's super, super easy to do this with Automator.
Now, let's try this one out:
You have 1000 JPGs that have a Adobe RGB profile. Make a CLI command line that will convert them all to sRGB, and rename them from .jpg to .jpeg.
This is a hell of a lot easier in Automator than on the command line.
The crucial difference is that Windowmaker is not equal to GNUstep. You can run whatever you like in Windowmaker, but it will look all weird.
A GNUstep browser will have the good menu off to the side, instead of it being captive in the window.
GNUstep has a lot of potential. However, there is a paucity of applications actually written for GNUstep in Objective-c and it is really going nowhere.

Then we can bootstrap a few other necessary apps.
I thought that the iPad was $500 because there is no competition that is worthy enough to drive the price down!

Not if your NIC strips out all the special traffic meant only for it.
Many cultures ritualistically mutilate infants' genitals, as well. That doesn't make it right.
GNASH is a joke.
Actually Adobe Reader was always presented as a PDF reader. All the other shit they tacked onto it was added after several revisions.
