European Commission Joins Investigation of Apple's Flash Exclusion Policies

Statement of fact: "Your statement is incorrect."
Insult: "You are a liar."

A lie is now an incorrect statement ?

Again, spinning and muddying. Seems you are quite apt at doing both. A lie is an incorrect statement made knowingly in order to misrepresent.

You are a liar is as much a statement of fact as Your statement was incorrect. In fact, it carries much more sense, as it is saying that while your statement was incorrect, you knew it was, and you made it in an attempt to misdirect your audience.

Warped. World. View. And. Bad. Faith. Welcome to my ignore list.

Can you not read what I wrote instead of making stuff up to argue with? I did not say that a lie is simply an incorrect statement. I did not lie. As you pointed out, a lie is "made knowingly in order to misrepresent." Why is it so hard to believe the fact that I simply did not consider the Flash compiler when I made my claim? It seems most people on this forum are referring to the Flash Player or Flash content when the use the word Flash.

Heck, Anuba even agreed with the only point that I was actually trying to make, so it couldn't have been that far out there.

Why is everybody bitching about flash so much? Because Steve said so? Or because you polluted your computer so bad you can't run anything stable anymore and you're using flash as your convenient scapegoat?

My safari NEVER crashes. When I watch a flash movie on Youtube, I get about 5-10% load which is the same as when I watch the same movie on Youtube in html5.

So either my MBP is magical, or everybody is else more concerned about propagating the religion of Steve than reality.

FWIW, this EU thing is not about flash support in browsers and such, this is about development tools and apple's decision to ban use of any compiler other than their own.
