Aral Balkan, I’m not on Adobe’s Christmas card list anymore via Twitter / AceyTech
Adobe Flash Player has encountered a problem at a Shedd Aquarium educational kiosk for children and needs to close. This should come as no surprise, though we are nevertheless sorry for the inconvenience. If it does come as a surprise, you either don’t care that much about technology, are a grossly misguided developer who believes that Flash is not a vile plague of the Internet, or a nimrod.
This definitely gets me on board with Flash for open government. Definitely. Especially since the debugging process for Flash is so simple.
Adobe pushes Flash and PDF for open government, misses irony - Ars Technica
Flash can die in a bloody fire as far as I’m concerned. 10 lashings for the nincompoops at Adobe who thought that “Flash” has any place in “open government.”
The douchbagging ridiculousness that is Adobe and its plague of a platform that is Flash knows absolutely, inarguably, no bounds.
In one breath this Adobe rep touts the Pre’s multitasking abilities. He shows off how he has three different cards (applications) running Flash instances like a film preview, a game, and a music player embedded in a site.
In his next fucking breath, he boasts that they did a lot of work to make sure Flash stops when you switch away from an application.
We multitask on the Pre! Nya nya nya-nya nya.
Oh wait, no we don’t.
Because Flash is god-foresakenly pathetic dreck.
But buy it and make us money. Wake the hell up people: we aren’t a design company anymore. We’re just a company. Who gives a crap about experience, or quality, or making something work, or the fact that we’re trying to hijack the web with our terrible products and proprietary bullshit.
Love,
Adobe, The Reason The Web’s Unwilling Ass Feels So Sore
I was browsing 1FPS on my iPhone and noticed that my Flash gallery post of a digicam comparison doesn’t just disappear. Tumblr gracefully degrades it to simply list each photo in order. This is a great way to handle mobile devices like the iPhone that I hope never have to suffer the scourge of Flash.E
Adventures in ClickToFlash: Acrobat.com. I don’t know if it’s so much of a “challenge to Google Docs” as something for Google to kind of point and snicker at. I also wonder how it looks on an iPhone and whether there is a mobile-friendly site.
Adobe usability fail.
As if that’s anything new.
A-fucking-men.
If you love Instapaper as much as this guy, or if you just like it a bit, or even if you don’t...
