Comment Re:and how many people use Airport? (Score 1) 306

Bought 2, and after a few years both are dead - the power supply inside will not handle 220v systems found in India and Nepal (unstable, even with inverters/stabilizers/surge protectors). So now I am thinking about freeze drying them (or the girl) and whacking with a hammer to see what's useful inside. Anyway, I don't really understand what this is all about but I think I get the gist: it's good for us and bad for DRM - yea! Now let's see what Apple does to Final Cut Pro...then I can really get mad.

Exactly. Thousands of more eyes on a Scion that would have never seen it before, and all for free. Same goes for Cydia. A win for everyone (selling crap). I've got a jailbroken phone, and wall or no wall, everyone wants to sell me something. It's almost like phones are becoming the new advertising sections of the Sunday Papers of Olde...

Comment Is this a loophole? (Score 1) 127

I have set my home page to http://www.google.com/ig and have the NYT home page widget installed, and since the paywall went up I have read at least 70+ articles / slideshows / etc. since, and have not once seen a request for payment. I am using FF4 with Https-everywhere set to run the NYT pages that way. Could any of the above be a reason for the "loophole"? Cheers!

I played Sea Fish, and I get your point. Well done. But while I can see how it makes sorting pictures more fun then using a file manager or iPhoto, how will this concept scale to solving complex business problems? Take for an example the task of producing a schedule for a large scale project, where the previous method is to have a meeting of the principles and then create a Microsoft project (or something like that). Would you have to design a game interface just for the task? Cheers!

From a one-eyed man (torn retina), I can tell ya, immersion has nothing to do with 3D. I get more "immersed" in a story reading a segment of Dark Tower in iBook then I do at a say a crap 3D movie like Tron. And hell, that's on a tiny iPhone screen.
