  1. first Nokia device to feature a full-sized keypad? on Nokia Unveils Its First Netbook · · Score: 5, Informative

    "The Nokia Booklet 3G is the first Nokia device to feature a full-sized keypad and a 10-inch display"

    nope.

  2. Re:Ditch Acrobat... on Adobe Confirms PDF Zero-Day, Says Kill JavaScript · · Score: 1

    While all other Adobe products are near perfect or perfect, my mind defies the logic behind Adobe pushing the only totally moronic product in it's productline, Acrobat/fileformat PDF, it's sad to realise that with all the efforts the Adove development teams push into their new products can be ruined by a program that reflects the vampirical blood lust of Adobes Marketing/Sales department. Overall, in the last few years I've seen little actual development in the features of the new builds of many different programs from various companies, the complete inverse of how much more browser toolbars, widgets and other irrelevant applicational diseases are spreading. Thankfully in Adobe's case the Marketing/Sales fungus is concentrated in the Adobe Acrobat plague, so just stay away from that and you'll be fine =) Anyway, go Adobe dev and Slashdot!

  3. Re:Who needs to hunt down textbooks in Finland? on Copyright Lobby Targets "Pirate Bay For Books" · · Score: 1

    Thank you Finish copyright police TTVK or who every you are. I had never heard of this service before. It sounds great and now I might just use it!

    As a finnish citizen I can only say "Right on!", this seems like the story where Monsanto denies the farmer the right to collect seeds from the harvest to sew the land again, instead the farmer must buy a new "license" (new batch of seeds).

  4. Re:it was a commentary on a long running debate: on Watchmen 50 Days On, Was It Worth the Gamble? · · Score: 1

    both the squid and mr. bombadil are kind of completely out of context of the stories they inhabit, so really, no big deal

    I thought the squid in the original novel represented the common evil humans must have to finally agree about things. I guess the blue man was a way to speak about current human condition how the true enemy of one is just like him/her. Kudos to Mr. Bombadil, I hear he's got a sweet babe =)

  5. same stuff elsewhere on A.I. and Robotics Take Another Wobbly Step Forward · · Score: 2, Informative

    There's a BBC documentary "Where's my robot" out since 16 dec 2008 with STAIR and others in it.

  6. GREED KILLING on Explosion at Scaled Composites Kills 2, Injures 4 · · Score: 1

    FTA "Gary May also cited the excitement of working for a company whose projects were financed by famous entrepreneurs such as Richard Branson of Virgin Atlantic and Paul Allen, a co-founder of Microsoft."

    Let me suggest a musical offering: "GREED KILLING" by Napalm Death =)
