The Stardock CEO is suck an unmittigated jackass that I really cannot bring myself to support his platform or his companies products anymore. (note that Stardock is a small privately owned company so the identification of the person of the CEO / owner with the company is valid when that would not be the case in a large public corporation)
that was the one where he was making a big deal out of some fox news-related counter-boycott or something, right?
i thought he kind of came around later in the thread.

WoW crisis averted.
Man, the gay guy from the coffee bar has the most feminine walk I've ever seen. I want to know how he does that, but studying him may not go over well.
Woo supernatural is renewed for season 6, and Castle looks like a sure thing. GO GO Shows I enjoy!
Hrm, more Castle is good. Such a wonderful cast.
All of their regulars are great, hell I'd like to see an entire episode from the perspective of the other two detectives.
Ryan and Espitsomethingsomethingican'tspell. That would be great. It's nice to have a cast in which no one is the target, everyone gives and takes it pretty equally.

Exactly, Ryan and Esposito could just be the foil of jokes but they get their digs in, hell the captain isn't above it either throwing his own barbs. I like that about the show, good writing/acting.

I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
Wally: I've had a couple thoughts like that trip, but I always diffuse it with "I'm probably not dead/dying, it's probably just the drug. And if I AM dead/dying, there's really nothing I can do by fighting it... So let's just calm down and see where this is going."
And then things without fail get better.
Why is it that nobody knows when to use 'diffuse' and when to use 'defuse'? Defuse means to disable, diffuse means to spread around (and often make ineffective). They're sometimes similar, but not interchangeable by any stretch of the imagination.
maybe chill the fuck out and stop being an asshole?
But it's still infinetly superior than trying to create a non-trivial application in Javascript.
As long as HTML5 and the like are held back from entering the community of civilized programming languages by that bastard typeless script I will strongly support continued use of browser black-box solutions like Silverlight or Flash.

html5/ajax/js means that flash isn't NEEDED at all any more for any of the stuff it does.
Sadly, a bunch of big sites still use flash, and it has to be supported.
I wonder if inline midi still works on websites.

The power of flash is too awesome to be contained in such a small device as a phone.
That is actually a lot of the reason. Well, not the awesome part but the phone part. I know people who used to work at Adobe. The Flash player has to be created from scratch for each platform it runs on and doing so (and supporting each version) costs Adobe a lot of cash.

HTML5 seems really sweet, someone linked that video player. Of course, I know nothing about these things so I don't actually know what it is. It is a language?

On a reasonable interpreter platform with some nice frameworks, Javascript is just dandy. Throw in HTML 5 canvas support and you've got something that can handily replace Flash 99% of the time with a fraction of the instability and overhead.
Yes, I have developed for Javascript. The biggest pain is supporting IE.

I've sent a friend request to a person, in a move of unprecedented bravado on my part
But they haven't responded to it. I've noticed them online, for several minutes at a time, several times between now and when I sent the request several days ago. They haven't accepted it... Or ignored it. It is still pending. It's just sitting there.
I am entirely uncertain of how to proceed here.
People always read too much into stuff like that.
Which is why I don't even log into facebook until I have the time to sit half a day and answer all the month old messages so nobody feels left out.
But this person logs on every day. Usually more than once. And that's just based on what I see periodically checking in.

No, HTML5 still needs Flash or Silverlight or something to avoid the hell that is developing a non-trivial app in Javascript. I do not give a flying fuck how fancy the HTML5 DOM is or that it has an integrated video player or whatnot. If I have to use Javascript to create any substantial functionality it is still an utter failure.

Maybe he has a bunch of requests and messages and can't bother to go through more than a few per day. Or maybe he's up to something.
I don't know and that's the thing, it's impossible to tell stuff like this over the tubes.

or more likely, they don't want to be your facebook friend. send them another request, just to make sure.
Also, Flash is only so widespread (in terms of adoption rate by end users) because Microsoft used Flash in the animated help they used in Windows, Works and Office until a few years ago. Flash 6 came pre-installed on Windows XP prior to SP1 and Flash 6 was the first version with an auto-upate feature.
Also I like how I spent almost all of my money in STALKER on buying a SIG rifle and a decent supply of 5.56 mm ammo so I could stop using that shitty AN-94 (Which in reality isn't a bad rifle by any means, but this is a video game so common must equal bad) and then in the next area, literally the very next area, the first time I actually use the new rifle... All of the enemies are carrying M4 carbines.

No problem!
The guy was a big L "libertarian" of the worst sort. I would wager a great deal he has since become a teabagger.

Also, no flash support. (Initially. As an open platform, there's nothing to stop Adobe.) May Flash rot in hell.

perhaps a similar, yet larger device might suffice?

I don't get how Adobe managed to make both flash and pdf the computer standards, yet be so annoying about it.
Is that to say you shaved your chest?

Replacing Adobe Reader with Foxit when I put Windows 7 on my desktop was one of the best thing I did.
They bought the company that made Flash which in turn bought the company that made the core of Flash.
