Transparent Transistors Are Coming
Roland Piquepaille writes "Transparent electronics is an emerging technology which aims to produce invisible electronic circuits. Now, researchers from Oregon report they made a major advance in transparent electronics. Their zinc-tin-oxide 'thin-film' materials are amorphous, physically robust, chemically stable and cheap to produce at just above room temperature. These new materials and transistors offer many new possibilities for consumer electronics, transportation, business and the military."
Just because he's ranting about the truth means you can mod him into oblivion. Most are scared to voice out, or not observant enough to notice certian submitters are "frequently" getting headlines.
It's irritating when that happens especially when you want to submit a story you KNOW hasn't been on slashdot before, but get rejected only to have one of these "frequent" headliners post "dupes" or an ask slashdot that could have easily been looked up on google.
Man, this guy has my sympathies and support. Don't mod because the tone of his post is harsh. LISTEN and act instead of reacting.

Yes, but it doesn't matter. Plenty of theft goes on right here in the States, and nobody seems interested in doing anything about it.
The higher the technology, the sharper that two-edged sword.
" Slashdot, either by willing agreement or simple ignorance is supporting this thief by continually linking to his "blog". The level of "interest" is not relavent since what you are reading is being packaged by a liar."
Complaining about it isn't giving Slashdot any reason to discontinue. If anything, they'll look at the number of comments generated and realize "Hey! We're dishing out more ads because of this guy!"
"Derp de derp."
how do you think the editors would ever get a clue that the readers are sick of old roland advertising his blog if we never complained?
if he wants to advertise let the asshole post the stories with something insightful to say, or else just filter his crap from it.
hell, here's a novel idea for roland: POST REPLIES TO STORIES THAT GET MODDED UP, and advertise on your fucking sig. or just BUY the adviews from slashdot.
more than that usually they're just some digged up shit with _nothing new_ on the issue.
world was created 5 seconds before this post as it is.
He wrote one interesting book on hacking culture, then had free reign to blather on slashdot for a couple of years. Most of it was not good.
telling me i'm new here.
*laff*
i get the forumula - but expressing for the first itme my irritation.
