That was certainly why I dismissed the platform and never purchased it or attempted to build apps for it. Wintel is the platform, not just Windows.

The cost is crazy low. Any insight on if this will function as a standard smartwatch (ie buzz for alerts) out of the box, or do I need to write my own bluetooth driver for this to be useful?

Flash/animate added html5 export in 2012, five years after the iPhone was released and the writing was on the wall. But another big difference is that Flash was widely pirated and ran on the devices that everyone had (PCs.) A similarly

I find video of someone else playing an existing game to be a poor replacement for someone going and making a new game.

Probably the same reason that Adobe let flash die on the vine-making a robust flash like authoring tool and targeting broke teenagers as your market isn't profitable.

We'll there we have it: we lived in a world with good tooling for creative works but a bad runtime, and we replaced the runtime without replacing the authoring tools. I think that's a shame.

Ruffle.rs and Gnu Gnash are decent emulators, plus Newgrounds had its own player you can install. If you have flv files you can upload them to the internet archive and if you set it up properly, they will be playable with ruffle.rs in the b

They where poor stewards of the platform, to be sure. The security situation was very bad, and they did little to discourage people from using Flash for all of the wrong reasons. But you could just as easily turn around and blame Apple for

Apple killed flash. If they will be able to kill x86 remains to be seen. I don't think web users won out because flash is dead though. Web games never recovered. Video making switched from animation to people filming themselves talking

Saying that synth makers need to 'get their act together' is a bit unfair. Nobody asked Apple to invalidate all binaries, they just went ahead and did it.

I used wabbitemu for a while, but eventually switched to python on termux. The Basic dialect on graphing calculators was pretty cool, but I think future students will get more out of Python on their calculators!

I'm in the same boat. I learned to engineer software because I realized that just modding a dead engine that other people had to pay to use wasn't going to cut it, and if I wanted to make games I was gonna have to program them mys
