The Gooseberry is basically the main board from the wave of 7 and 8 inch android tablets currently coming out of China without the touch screen or chassis. My Momo8 tablet is pretty much exactly the same spec as the Gooseberry but with twice the ram and storage. You can probably tell what tablet the Gooseberry comes from by looking at the shape of the board, has a fairly distinctive rounded corner.

You do know the earliest industrial scale aluminium smelting was (and still is) done using Hydro power?

66. On the first point, Mr Fielder's image is not what I will call a mere photograph; by which I mean an image which is nothing more than the result of happening to click his camera in the right place at the right time. I do not need to grapple with the scope of copyright protection arising from such a photograph. Mr Fielder's image could perhaps best be called a photographic work; by which I mean to emphasise that its appearance is the product of deliberate choices and also deliberate manipulations by the author. This includes choosing where to stand and when to click and so on but also includes changes wrought after the basic image had been recorded. The image may look like just another photograph in that location but its appearance derives from more than that.

67.On the second point, the collection of other similar works relied on by the defendants have worked against them because the collection has served to emphasise how different ostensibly independent expressions of the same idea actually look.

They are key and paint the case in a far different light from the scare mongering sensationalist headlines that have been produced about the case.

I see one of the demands is that we should tell website that we want future content in more open standards. The Flex SDk has been open source since version 3.0 and the Flash Player specification has been open for longer.

Flex has been open source for years.

They change here is that project leadership will now be shared between Adobe and an Open Source foundation.

One of the papers on the site says that liquidity in smaller stocks has decreased due to HFT.

HFT does not make markets more liquid.

Flash development is free. Completely and utterly open source and free. Google "Flex SDK" if you don't believe me.

If you want to write a flash app you have to pay $0.

The Flex SDK is completely free and open source.

You seemed to have confused liquidity with bubbles.

How does HFT improve liquidity? There was already a buyer and a seller before the HFT inserted themselves in the middle to make the exchange between the Buyer and Seller less efficient.

That's what got them to drop the "no cross compilers" rule and the "no differentiated pricing" rule.

They are the worlds worst bully, they fold like a pack of cards every time.

It's in the EULA. It is forbiden to install OSX on non-apple hardware.

This is the stupidest "debate" in the world and once again, because it is an asine argument that favours Apple, we find Daring Fireball driving the discussion.

This is going to go down with the "why yes it is definitely better for the consumer if Apple bans cross compilers no I;ll keep my mouth shut once Apple reverse that decision a couple of months later".

It is close to impossible to describe the blatant hypocrisy of railing against Lodsys (which Daring Fireball has done) but then criticising Google's position on patents as being monopolistic and anti-competitive.

Breathtaking.

They shut it down because no one wanted to advertise in it any more not because of the misconduct.
