What happens to the Facebook app now? Do they get someone else in or do they just let it rot?
He stated that support for the Facebook app would be taken over by someone else.
He said he personally was frustrated and going back to web programming.
Let's see, before Apple, there was no useful mobile app market.
Anyone who's had smartphones knows about Handango.
Handango has been around for a decade, with tens of thousands of apps for all kinds of phones. Some carriers even included Handango's specific store app, which existed years before the iPhone came along.

I wonder when new Macbooks/Macbook pros will come?
Strange, because everyone said that Apple would release the MB and MBPs on the 12th, but not all of a sudden it shifted to the iMac :confused:

mac is about sharing your creativity with the ones you love. In this era of myspace and mmorpg's do we need a nother form of social interaction with no physical interaction. I still think that istations are a good idea. I would like to be in line at the store and see a girl listening to ipod, and i see her ilisten light on, so I check out her playlist, though this is a lot like myspace, at least you have the ability to walk over and say "hey :) ,i love your station. I see from your event list that the band (...) is playing this fri. would you like to go with me :cool: " Yes stalkers are inevitable, but this could be pretty cool.

It would be nice for Apple to announce it's end of life after offering a 10th anniversary model. They'd sell tens of millions.
That would be a great idea to have one final classic model before the EOL and with a much larger HDD.

Cool shot! I loved that place when I visited 5 years ago, and your photo instantly took me back to the sunrises there... I'll try to dig up one or two of my old shots and post them, too.

Seems like I recognize that place... even some of the boats... ;) Post more, if you have any. I'm always keen to see someone else's interpretation of a familiar place (at least to me...)
Nice dog shot. I really like the bokeh and the dog's expression.
Cheers. Thanks. She's a very expressive dog, besides being as weird as they come from a feral Baja genepool.
Okay, I posted this just to balance out the dog photo. ;)

We completed the game on regular and are about 3/4 finished with the game on Heroic. All in all, it is worth playing. High points are jet packs, space combat, flying combat. Graphics/movies are awesome. I realize this is the prequel to the Halo trilogy, and as such it is worthy, but some aspects feel repetitive. I think it comes with the territory (5th game or so of a shooter series). I wish there had been more tank based combat, where it is your tank, and not hijacking one.
Normally I like playing on "regular" and just cruising through the game enjoying the sights and encounters so I don't have a good comparison with previous Halo games, but I read that the A.I. is improved and I've noticed on Heroic, generally speaking it's not real safe hiding in a corner waiting for your health to regenerate. The baddies tend to come for you. :)
It would have been good to see Master Chief...
BTW, I'm playing with with my nephew. Regarding accumulated credits, he is an aggressive player who gets shot to pieces but in the end makes more kills than I do, along with lots of extra deaths. I would assume that since he has earned twice as much credit as I have, that the game only cares about kills and not kills per death? I'm more conservative focused on staying alive, so this is a little annoying. :p
The last Halo. I need to see what Bungie is working on for the next big project. Anyone have a good link? I found this at kotaku (http://kotaku.com/5657115/halo-creators-tease-mmo-as-their-next-big-thing?skyline=true&s=i):
Speaking at Game Developers Conference Online creative director Joe Staten hinted that Bungie's next project could feature "a world that was always there for you." Does Bungie have a shooter MMO up its sleeve?
News update:: Halo sucks...Borderlands is a much better game ;)
I enjoy both, so you must be picky. ;)

I agree. Linux has the best server software out there. MS use to use their server software. But when you combine the sums of the parts, those numbers start to get very very small.
you could say the same for os x ;). seriously, on some areas linux propably has the best apps there is. same goes for os x. it depends on what you do with the machine.

A good photographer can take brilliant photographs with a disposible camera, a bad photographer will still take rubbish photographs with a top end DSLR. :)
Why are you comparing the users? A good comparison would be the same user (good or bad) using different cameras/mobiles to take photographs.
I don't understand your argument.

Thank you, and seriously they are not going to make the jump to Iphone 5 for another generation after this one, that I think is still going to come out on time, with an A5 processor in June. I will be making the move from my 3Gs to the next gen as soon as it comes out. Btw I am not basing my knowledge of a summer Iphone release on the fact that apple has not let me down yet year after year of releasing Iphones early into the summer.
So you are saying that the new iPhone will release without iOS 5?
Because its doubtful iOS 5 will be released with no dev preview prior to release.

Are Apple any different?
All their product is made in Asia, I'm sure they bully their suppliers to get the best prices and there have been question marks over the working conditions in the factories they use.
Everyone wants lower prices and better quality. A lot of people feel guilty due to the effects this has on other people, but not guilty enough to actually stop shopping at the cheapest shops.
I agree. Apple and Wal-mart are just companies. They are not evil or benevolent. They compete in a very competitive market and can in no way be considered monopolies.
Wal-Mart doesn't drive local mom & pop companies out of business. The people who shop at Wal-Mart drive the local mom & pop business away. If Wal-Mart is so evil, bad to employees, sells rotten product, why is it that so many people shop there?
Sure Wal-Mart pressures suppliers to lower their price, so does everyone else. That is why prices drop when supply is high or demand is down. Sure Wal-Mart puts pressure on local business. So does every business that competes in that market including mail order.
If the local business can't stay afloat in their market then it just means that customers are choosing for whatever reason to go somewhere else.
I don't particularly care for Wal-Mart myself and I don't shop there except for as a convience for the most mundane products. But I can't stand all this whining! This is a free world. If you are a consumer, shop where you choose and those companies will reap the reward. If you are a supplier supply to who you wish, if you have a great product it will sell. If you are a competitor, do whatever you can to keep prices low, quality high, customer satisfaction high, and you will stay in business.
What's the big deal!:rolleyes:

Frankly, the vast majority of users, and developers, and content providers, DO NOT care what you personally want, no matter how much you roll your eyes.
Flash is on virtually every computer on Earth, and pretty soon it will be on virtually every smart phone as well. Except the iPhone, of course.
Flash works very well, for the vast majority of users. The fact that Apple has not expended the minimum effort required to get Flash working more efficiently in OS X, is mostly problem for only those relatively few of us, who prefer to use Mac OS.
(In my testing on OS 10.6.1, Safari is by far the worst of all browsers at handling Flash: it pushes the CPU to 77%, while Firefox and Camino stay at less than 49%. Safari is also by far the worst on Windows 7, where on the same video it runs to almost 30% of CPU, while IE8 is at 1%, and Firefox and Chrome are at 4%.
The vast majority of users enjoy what Flash provides.
And, Flash does things which would be impossible, or very hard, or prohibitively expensive, to do with other currently available technologies, and deploy them for all browsers and systems.
So, I repeat: the rest of the world DOES NOT care, that you, and a handful of weird backroom guys, have an irrational hatred of Flash. Move on.
The bottom line is, if Apple doesn't get Flash on the iPhone, it will quickly lose market share to Android. It's a HUGE missing feature, bigger than cut/paste and turn-by turn navigation and mms rolled together, and you can bet it will be advertised as such.
Agree to disagree!
However, it is not just me. Anyone that knows the history of the web and the technologies behind it including flash does not like Flash, and knows that it is an inefficient and unnecessary piece of crap. The fact that one of, if not the most powerful tech company on earth agrees might make you think twice! :rolleyes:
What do you think Apple stands to gain from this? They are pushing OPEN STANDARDS! And if Flash is such a gaping hole in the iPhone why would such a huge powerful company let a flagship product wilt when there is nothing to gain from it for them? Think about it, that is how crappy Flash is!
Personally I am happy that there is a company out there like Apple that will do whatever it takes to push progress and top of the line technology in ways that no other company has the balls to do! I am glad that they are determined to weed out inferior technology in the name of progress! They even obsolete their own products at the hight of them being the most popular gadgets on earth, and WHY?... Because they thought of something cooler. You know any other company with the balls to do that? No, they would just milk the product as long as they possibly can, and then serve a minor update that isn't too cost prohibitive.
Ya, I'll stick with Apple's M.O. Thanks! :p

I'm sorry; the list was real (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clear_Channel_Communications). It wasn't an official ban per se, more of a suggestion, sent by Clear Channel Communications to stations they owned.
There's a lot of speculation in that Wikipedia article and very few citations of credible sources.
And then there's this...Official response to controversy
Clear Channel officially denies most of these allegations. An article titled Know the Facts (http://www.clearchannel.com/Corporate/PressRelease.aspx?PressReleaseID=1167&p=hidden) on its corporate website addresses many of these concerns."

Then how is it an 'in-your-face-you-smug-apple-using-retards'?
Why would these "blackhats" be listening to Apple, particularly when they appear to have an axe to grind?
yeah, I don't see how they can make their smugness quotes, and then go to apple and microsoft first before demoing. It does seem odd, since they would know that all companies involved would "pressure" them like that.

The secular bible might come off as a silly idea. But i've often pondered what i will tell my kids when the day comes and they ask "some people in my class are christian and some are jewish, what are we?" Kids hate feeling excluded, so i feel like saying we don't have a religion wouldnt go over well because they really don't understand what it means.
They don't usually think that way. They'll just be glad they don't have to endure going to church.
