Whatever you say Mr. Shatner ...

I'm pretty sure he's talking about using flash to develop native iOS apps. (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/logged_in/abansod_iphone.html).

BTW, I don't think I made it clear in my original post; the reason people think its a fake is because some stuff happens on the screen before he actually places the shape/figurine on it. He claims that his finger brushed the screen.

Here's the guy's response to a comment about this on his website:

Non tu ne rêves pas, mais j’ai juste appuyé avec mon doigt au moment de prendre le pion et cela à créé un contact. La démo est développée en Flash et marche vraiment très bien. Nous sommes en train de la redévelopper en Objective C (merci Steve;-).

It says: No, your not dreaming. I just pressed (brushed?) my finger at the moment when I picked up the piece and that created a contact. The demo is developed in Flash and works very well. We're in the process of porting it to objective-c.

I never really got how someone could hold view like this (that some abortions are ok). It seems to me like you can cut down the issue to one essential question: is the fetus a human life? If you think it is, then obviously no form of abortion is ok (its murder). If it's not, then abortion is no different then terminating a pregnancy by using contraception (or a woman's period, or male masturbation). All of these activities involve the potential to produce human life (steps in the process), but due to certain conditions the process is terminated. I don't see much of a middle ground here.

Lol, yep I really had to dig for the first result on google (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=define%3Aatrocity). The first definition was from Princeton. Btw, the rest of the definitions are: An extremely cruel act; a horrid act of injustice - Wikitionary atrocities - are acts that are shockingly cruel - McGraw-Hill I excluded unrelated entries (like band names and movies). As for this being the first time that someone's criticized your literary style; isn't this the same as Godwin's law? Basically people are apt to use hyperboles in an argument online? I mean, stuff like this literally happens all the time on Slashdot. And finally, way to be a prick. We can't have a nice discussion about word choice in arguments without me having to "get over myself?"

atrocity: the quality of being shockingly cruel and inhumane an act of atrocious cruelty Look, I'm not arguing that businesses can't commit acts that could probably be called atrocities (see forced labor for the Nazi war machine) but until telecos start working Jews and Gypsies to death let's skip the colorful language.

Atrocities? Seriously? I like net neutrality as much as the next guy (posting on Slashdot) but comparing inconvenient telecommunications fees/policies to genocide or war crimes is ridiculous (and cheapens the word).

Let's take it beyond just people with cameras. What about people with photographic memories? It should really be illegal for anyone to even look at your house, regardless of whether they're on public property.

I use Ubiquity all the time for text translation. You just highlight the text, bring up Ubiquity and type translate. IMO this is where ubiquity shines; its hardly bolted on, its a really natural way of instructing the browser to work with the page I have open. Its way more convenient than any other option since I don't have to switch pages/tabs.

You seriously need to stop watching Glenn Beck (or stop taking him seriously). This is the dead horse he's been beating for weeks now ...

The iphone has had stereo bluetooth since iPhone OS 3.0. I have Motorola HT820 headphones (which suck btw, too heavy), and I haven't had any problems with A2DP with my iPhone 3G.

Anybody else read that in the movie preview voice? It was really exciting until about the 3rd sentence.
