I'm with the rest of you guys, I too would like to see flash opened up, but more specifically, I am a linux user, and I am happy, and yes, it kicks ass.
Go linux developers! Make an application far Superior to Flash 9.0!
I'll just uhh, stand by the side lines in total support.. Don't worry, I have flags and everything, surly that's be enough encouragement!
I have to admit, I am shocked... This is the first time I've ever seen Mozilla do such an act.
Is it bad or good?.. well, as the AC above quite rightly points out, Realplayer is a widely known heap-of-junk.. and to be associated with that and the total free-open source Firefox internet browser is really quite surprising.
Oh well, let's see how it goes, if it increases user base by a large margin, and people adopt Firefox and love it (I'm sure they will) then I see this as being an advantage in the longterm.
If Firefox's development slows to a snails pace, and people have it on their machine, it won't add a good name to Firefox at all, it'll get widely known as the browser which is bug-ridden and a haven for viruses, but saying that, I don't see it happening:)
Oh and, one last note.. I love how 2.0 beta is coming on, It's adding some additional very slim and needed features (such as spelling in text boxes).
I have some experience with police officers.
About a year ago, I got into an argument with my mother and her partner decided to phone the police as I was fustrated and hit the table with my fist, this was a mistake on my part obviousely, but in my house hold, that's what happens (my mothers partner often goes into flids and smashed lots of things).. Personally I am not an aggressive person but I have a limit.
Anyway, I passed my limit and raised my voice and hit the table, my mothers partner phoned the police, they took me into custurdy without hearing my side of the story, but of course the new laws allow them to take anyone into prison who have a phone call on them.
I fully cooperated with them and I was in jail for about 40 minutes, my mother decided not to press charges and I was left with a caution on my name or whatever, DNA was done, photo was done, shoes taken off and all that junk.
Anyway, the main part was, that whilst they drove me back home, I started to speak to both the police officers.. they seemed like arrogant teenagers but they were in their 30's/40's... they had no passion for solving crimes and giving justice to the people. I asked them quite a few questions and carefully watched and listened to how they reacted.. they said that they enjoyed going to a call and seeing what the situation was, I actually hinted about helping people in a subtle way but they were blind to that fact.
It seems to me, police officers are people who have no respect for the public, they see the public as the enemy to them, and if the regulations that's being told to them it's "ok" to do such things (like in this case) then this will drive them further into CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR themselves, but of course, they are the 'law' so, they are totally clear..
The police force needs to be refined, I don't want criminals and corrupt policemen in the workforce.
The way I see it, the government is being driven by an agender to increase crime, promote terrorism, fuel racism (specifically muslims and so on), putting more and more money into CCTV cameras and the like, creating a huge database of DNA samples from as many people as possible..
All this leads to huge corruption, depopulation, and a huge push for Nazi like ideologies trying to kill all muslims/blacks and so on.
It's not ready just quite yet (ubuntu) for the desktop.
But, I can see it really gaining in popularity latley, which is all that linux really needs.. is popularity.
I think this is just brilliant... seriously.. Every time I hear legiment users of windows getting p***** off, or angry because their windows won't work, or that they can't install patch updates because they've installed new hardware, it really lightens up my day.
No, I don't revel in customers unsatisfactory, it bugs me, but I do laugh at how microsoft is loosing popularity and a user base extremely fast due to this.
Ubuntu, Here we come!
p.s. Ubuntu has released a version today based on the 2.6.17 kernel, and that kernel includes many new supported wireless cards, one of which I have in my laptop (broadcom 4308)
UK guy here too.. and yeah, it's disturbing, I guess this is just some part of a bigger plan.
I don't know what to really say, I mean, in my comment above, I express my feelings that this will only increase crime, and it seems like it's a way of decreasing the population... I mean, the criminals who go into prison will probably only get worse, and when they come out they might be so screwed up and go killing people.. I don't know really, it's so odd.
Anyway, by the time people realize that all their rights have gone, they may decide that their judgments of blair in the first place were wrong..
What I don't understand is the amount of people (if this does pass) that will be in jails.
Already, the UK jails are bursting.. they really are! Where do they expect them to go??
It seems like this is just a huge push for further corruption, which is such a strange thought at first, since the whole idea of this is to "remove corruption".. the fact of the matter is, there are crimes everywhere all the time in the UK - and when criminals come out of prison they never change, and sometimes they come out worse...
This will cause the opposite effect, and in my personal opinion, they want a mass population decrease.
I have modelled in the past, and this poster above is nothing but a liar. You don't model from "electrons".. you model from vertexes, points and edges. You then use a smoothing tag to estimate a curv over the points, inwhich you can add more detail by adding more points.
Blenders UI isn't great for a total newbie I agree, but that's not to say it's hard. I thought 3ds maxes interface was hard at first compared to maxon cinema 4d, but I got used to that.
There's also lots of video tutorials for blender which is brilliant. and yeah, the above poster should in no-way of been modded "insightful"
I agree, I did enjoy elephants dream for the visual quality, and the fact that it was made in an open and free environment (aka software).. But yes, story was awful.
But as you point out that the modellers/animators can't be story writers, in my belief is wrong.
I think (I don't know) but I'm pretty sure that none of them would attempt that.
I have experience in the computer graphic area, and it's becoming more and more important to excel in one small area, for example - modelling or texturing - and the industry is really blatantly telling these 3d graphic enthusiasts that that is how it is, therefore I don't personally believe any of them would write the story - they know the deal with 'not being good at everything'
Anyway, I really do hope they carry on doing this, as a poster above said.
Why even bother to bet on such a stupid outcome?.. Really, who would actually bet "Yeah, the world will blow up upon running this experiment"; as if there would be a point to that.
Yeah, and remember the famouse quote the news spurted out as to why they hate us (well, not *us* I am not in the US, but the reason why they done it?)
The line was "they hate our freedom".
Well, the governments are doing a pretty damn good job of making sure that comes true.
Better off with Linux, it's the computer OS equivalent of an immature little girl.

Yeah, brilliant.. Tell us now!.. you know, when it's over.
It's the same situation here I'm afraid. It recodnised my card frim native install, but didn't connect.
And my smile gets bigger...

I think we should perform a public online excorcism with this member.
The Power Of Christ Compells You..
The Power Of Christ Compells You..
I think, they think we care. Get real editors....none of us will be using vista.
Don't take it seriously.
Bravo bravo... excellent observation and very well executed just in a way that was so cheesy it made me laugh.
Also, you can just tell that when this guy above said "(shirtless boys)" he paused for 10 minutes to have one major furious wank.
Don't wack your monkey too hard man.
UK guy here too.. and yeah, it's disturbing, I guess this is just some part of a bigger plan.

Maxon cinema 4d with bodypaint will fulfill your needs, I'm too lazy to link, but yeah, it's really fun and easy to visuaully paint.
Also, Zbrush is also very good for this kind of thing (better than bodypaint)

Yes I agree, the whole story just screams incest, I find it really disturbing.
what the fuck? admins, ban this twat!
When will this be available?
Not funny anymore.
