"We would like to inform you that, since you're from France, you can start sharing news, images, videos and things you loved with people in France area from this moment"
How did you manage to guess i'm from France? Even though i'm technically french, i am in Holland, my OS is in english and my IP german. Pretty complicated bareer of entry!
I'm going to over-simplify, but according to Girard, the greatest social attempt to avoid scapegoating and civilize human nature has been christianity. The figure of the Christ, and his sacrifice, was a smart operation to replace real scapegoats by a symbolic one, allowing the community to unite against an innocent without having to kill anyone. This has been successful for centuries, but it's interesting to note that in his latest books, Girard sounds pretty disillusioned about this. "Achever Clausewitz" (strangely translated in english by "Battling to the end") is quite a frightening apocalyptic book that I would recommend to anyone interested in Girard's work.
Ah, I wish i could edit the link, and point to the google cache instead, but seems that it's too late.. Feeling sorry now, must feel like a DDoS attack for the person who wrote this, and I believe it won't stop until the article goes away from the frontpage :/
In the section about 'alt' tags, "If a user is viewing your site on a browser that doesn't support images" sounds like something coming from a very old text. I wonder if that's still relevant for anyone.
The second part of the sentence (screenreaders) taught me something, though!
yay! In the meantime there's always the possibility to export to web, save the tiles one by one on your HD and reassemble them in Photoshop like a puzzle. Quite a fun operation
First, congrats on the app and the selling method. Free trial and extras for sale are definitively a honest way to go on the app store!
I understand it's hard to export a svg, but how about exporting a hi-res picture? When choosing 'save image', the super resolution option disappears, and zooming before saving exports only a partial tile. It would be great to be able to save a huge picture, for pro printing, for instance
Is it really deleted? Or are you simply opting out of having it displayed in your account's page? According to the FAQ, "If you remove items, they will be removed from the service and will not be used to improve your Google experience". Words are important. Your history is removed from the service, not the servers. It won't be used to improve your experience, but nothing says it won't be used for something else
How about a css sprite for bootstrap? A complement to the standard glyphicons would be awesome, and if you goal is to see Batch in many designs as possible, that would probably help (beautiful work btw)
It's even worse than this. When everytime you're "good" at something, you notice movies get it wrong, after some point you start to wonder, maybe they also get it wrong for all the things you're not good at, you just don't notice it.
So basically, it could be that movies get everything wrong.
What you could do is find a maximum of valid addresses for their domain name, and setup an auto-responder with a nice complaining message sent to the whole list. Each spam you receive will then trigger a payload. They should get tired of this before you do :)
Not sure this is a technical question, but your homepage being quite scarce on details: where do the downloads come from? Is it a supersecret grooveshark leeching tool?
The look and feel is terrific btw, awesome use of Air
well, the model works for others: millions (or hundreds of thousands) gladly pay a monthly fee of £40 on usenet + rapidshare accounts, and i'm pretty sure most of them renew month after month
sounds good! I ran away from france to holland a few years ago because of this. I don't remember exactly but the threshold was much lower than 80000€
Wish you lots of luck!
ACtually you don't need to install another app... Once you removed Reader, just set the pdf filetype to always be opened by GoogleChrome. It views, prints, and it's blazing fast
Although your app was an awesome piece of tech, did it come to your mind that they may have disabled it only because it's slightly disrespectful towards people? I mean there are real people behind every FB face, and a breakup can be sad or painful. Maybe for an undetermined percentage of the population, the effect of breakup notifier may be like a knife in the chest?
Someone posted this here some time ago, looks like a great resource: http://hackerbuddy.com/
Otherwise, maybe we could get in touch? I'm working on something with an open-source CMS but it's lacking a few features and i'm mostly a graphic guy. i'd be happy to discuss
But it still makes you wonder how this idea should be understood: Does it mean it is actually impossible to travel faster than the speed of light, or just that you can, but bad things will happen (like coming back too late, or so big that no one will see you, etc)?
Great point. Let's imagine a group of right-wing survivalists starts using the service: they probably don't support capitalism, but they're all for "self determination, local autonomy, ecology, and communal economics", in their own way. How long before they get booted?
It's funny and highly illogical how the term 'activist' these days means solely left-wing militants (i don't specificaly condone right-wing survivalism here, this is just an observation)
Not sure why you've been downvoted here, you make a valid remark. I'm pretty sure the flag on this site's logo is the flag of the jihad.
Since that wave of 'revolutions' in the middle east has started, a lot of disinformation has been spreading, and some wolves seem to be hiding behind the cute flock of sheep. It wouldn't hurt to care of where we're picking our news from, and take everything with a pinch of salt
