i don't dispute apple products being more accessible (they are, for the most part), but i tell you what, having to hold a freaking key down if you want to right click is the enemy of accessibility. i know the mighty mouse or whatever the hell it's called has a right-click, but this is something that took them far too long to address.
disclaimer - my wife has CP (the legal kind) on her right side, so holding down a key with one hand when you can only properly move one hand is a bit of an accessibility issue.
you could modify git to send commit messages to the USPTO...
if you can't beat them, subvert their system. if every patent is one that can be freely used, then problem solved! software patents would become useless because they'd all be free.
for some reason, in media sensationalism terms "toxic" doesn't rate as high as "radioactive", but the bottom line is whatever kills most effectively is the most dangerous.
it's not a serious editing tool for one - you need to be able to at least spit out an EDL. ALE, XML, and OMF are all but essential as well.
editing programs MUST be able to spit out something that ANOTHER PROGRAM can use!
sorry for the capslock, but i'm so sick of editing programs that try to be a one-stop shop, when all of their tools suck compared to what you really want to finish your film in.
i'm not exporting a flat clip for grading - i want to conform and grade the original files from the camera, or i want to edit in miniDV for speed and size, and finish in 4k with dpx film scans. toy editing programs do not allow this.
an editing program doesn't need to be able to work with 4k dpx - it just needs to give me my edit in a format that can be eaten by a film scanner and grading package that can.
not really... if you're doing a big shoot, you'll be glad that all that shit your first AD wrote down is accessible in the edit without having to track down everything.
assistant editors' job is to meticulously log everything.
if you don't like to log things properly, i certainly do not want to have to conform your trainwreck of a feature film for onlining and grading - i'll be at it all week and you'll only want to pay for 2 hours.
the free software world needs a good video editor.
a database would be very helpful in the editing workflow - strangely enough no edit suites have it but most photo programs do.
to be able to assign tags to clips and subclips and all media, sort by timecode, sort by who is in it, sort by how good a take it is, right-click a shot in the sequence and be able to see a list of things relevant to that particular clip would be amazing.
of course, there's way more than a bachelor's in a project like this.
you could always just make an innovative xmms plugin that implements a database of the tags in your music library, and maybe helps you to choose what to play next...

i never understood nikon fans, because everyone else just shoots what they shoot without having any allegiance in particular.
in the age of lens adaptors, brand loyalty becomes a little bit weird.
you'll want a bit extra for debayering.
yes - a pure unregulated free-market approach to the nuclear industry would yield more weapons-grade materials than the cold war.
because why the fuck not, if it can make a profit on the side, and besides, the material can be burnt in the reactor too!
they also don't much care for Japan, which happens to be down-wind from a lot of China's coast...
AFAIK the main problem is finding a place geologically stable enough that your very very long borehole will stay functional.
hmm... we could always use an old frack-hole and the broken-up shale could be a heat-exchanger?
i was always struck by how damn similar Japan and NZ are geographically...
i see this ending rather like a strong magnet being dropped near a fridge.
the magnet sticks to the fridge, and now you have an extinction-level fridge with a magnet on it heading toward you, unperturbed.
with rockets it could be better than gravity alone i suppose.
you're missing the implication of using newspeak in an article about surveillance and remote executions across borders.
care to expand those bloody acronyms?
ever tried to lick a cryo valve?
did you see "dumb and dumber" where the guy's tongue gets stuck to the ice?

if that's an AI bot, then we just hit the singularity. that was the best mycleanpc/timecube troll i've ever seen.
my hat is doffed.
this needs more funny mods.

but... but... they stopped the boats!!
mod this up, mods.

what was that futurama quote?
remember what a said about stopping speaking 1 sentence early?
maybe the suits at RIAA are getting personalized results, just like everyone else.
think about it - if all they click on are pirate sites, that's going to fairly effectively override any pagerank tweaks that google can throw at them.
a RIAA lawyer is hardly going to click on spotify, hulu or itunes if they're looking to C&D someone.
pretty much everything.

this post needs to be modded up for great flavour justice
it's worth it.
plus the more local it is, the more resistance to allergies and whatnot you'll supposedly gain.
i heard it somewhere so it must be true.
yes. i was a tad confused about whether the writer actually meant "metabolite" whenever they said "enzyme".
whole thing sounds a bit clockwork orange to me.
seems to match population decline pretty closely then.
