@kazemizuhi: Sorry, busy day.
@kazemizuhi: Sorry, busy day.
@kazemizuhi: I'm tempted to leave this be but it's interesting talking with you, I hope you're still up for this heh.
@kazemizuhi: spreadsheets, photoshop, video editing, navigating web sites, email, calculator.
@kazemizuhi: The iPhone/iPad have been massively successful because they remove the abstraction of a mouse, your interactions with the elements on screen are as direct as is possible, in short multi-touch interfaces are closer to how we already interact with the real world than a mouse and keyboard.*
@kazemizuhi: Hopefully you've used a Wii/Kinnect/PSMove and understand that one of the reasons these are more fun as group activities is that you get to take a break while someone else bounces around.
Love this, a whole bank of them displaying various status would be cool, also a bank of idiot lights for various services and some switches just for the hell of it, ah, magic/more magic.
I never fail to be disappointed by just how many people think the minority report UI was designed for anything more than 30 seconds of movie entertainment.
@beenyweenies: How do you know they didn't?, without more details or even the other side of the story which lets face it, we're never going to hear anyway, I'm assuming from the drama in the article that CDBaby was the first to leak the deal, maybe you've made different assumptions and come to another conclusion but…
@MazdaMania: My secret shame exposed, I swear I was just trying to clean the headphone contacts honest.
@OverThereInThemTrees: Heh, I've got a few real ones lying around as well, I fix them for a living. Not sure I'd bother doing another HakMac again though, This one was someone else's failed project but it's sucked way too much of my time to get everything working and keeping it patched is an ongoing PITA.
@SewerShark: From the article:
@Kimberly Hunter: "You're probably the reason Apple makes everyone sign NDA's for everything these days."
@OverThereInThemTrees: I've got plenty of bad things to say about Apple when they screw something up, shipping iPhoto11 when it can eat all your photos for example, but in this case, where the author gives the impression he was the only person to leak the news, It's easier to believe he screwed up than all the other…
@SewerShark: Well we have to take the authors word for it that Apple weren't clear on that, doesn't it strike you as odd that everyone else there seemed to understand though?
@OverThereInThemTrees: Let me guess, you don't use Macs, you hate Apple and Steve Jobs?
So basically, "a hundred people from small record labels and distributors" understood the presentation was confidential, whereas you went straight home and "posted my meeting notes on my website, emailed all of my clients to announce the news"?
Here's a clue "Irish Paul Chambers".
@Ben Mouton: It's because so many people toss them away that the survivors are so prized.
@dj-hq: That's not a case, it's the aluminium enclosure, it's designed to look like a foam slipcase.
But does he shoot fire out of his mouth and shout 'REMEMBER ME!'
