Punctuation is nice. Take note of it. Grammar also contributes to isolate meaning from words.
Aside from that, at least one of your examples isn't very good. Have you ever written a Java app for a mobile phone? Ugh, it's horrible. Even loading text files takes longer than it should. (Compared to opening text messages of similar size) As for the 3D games that you speak of, Java does a reasonable job performing with the limited resources and poor input that come with these phones, but the games are still slow. Although, I'm certain that they would perform far better under a less restrictive language. Have a look at the performance of symbian OS applications in comparison.
However, on your recommendation, I did look up Sun's LookingGlass. It looks nice. It doesn't erase the negative connotation which goes along with Java. At least in my limited opinion.
If the underlying language is invisible, then that's great. Most of my experience with Java has just been otherwise.
Java is a nice language, it's easy to learn, and very portable. It has it's purposes. However, it's not a selling point. Much the same as VB isn't a selling point, actually.
It's a handheld device. If you want a keyboard, buy an infra-red/bluetooth one to connect as needed. The built in thumb-keyboards on a very few models aren't very good. But you should take a look around. It probably wont take long to find something you like.
I don't see how, actually. Religious 'constructs' such as heaven, hell and other ideas of existance after death generally aren't supposed to begin until after the end of the world.
Seriously man, the Soda and nachos are still good. Take them home with you.
As for the movie, I suspect if you talked to the manager, he'd give you the 9 dollars back.
Ah yes, the specific wording game. In that case, nevermind.
Although, I read somewhere about a year ago that it was possible to factorize n in polynomial time using quantum computers.
Although I'm not sure where I read it. So I can't verify it.
Anyway, nothing I ever wrote at the time was fast enough to bother with.
(Not using a Quantum Computer, of course.)

I bet you wouldn't have been modded down if you hadn't apologised...
Hint: Google gets more hits than slashdot.
Yeah.. I wonder.

Java just isn't a selling point. When you say Java, I think 'slow.'
Despite that, they're still winning.
Negatives are easy to find, because they stand out, even when outweighed by the positives.
Now, I don't support Microsoft, but what you're saying is wrong, or misleading.
Yeah, I see you're still having trouble. That shift key keeps getting stuck down, doesn't it?

Riddles are a form of art.
Especially old style ones, which are comparable to code.
Hmm. You seem to be posting in the wrong place.
I don't see how, actually.

Possibly- it depends on the copyright laws in your country, but it does mean that you're an idiot.
A little context impaired, are we?
Nope, just you.

Excluding of course, the ~98% of his readers who don't have mod points.
Parent is an idiot.
Staring at a screen isn't really social, any way you look at it.
Although, I'll agree that the discussion part which comes later is fairly social.
The discerning consumer, I should hope.
Although I worded it wrong at first; I'm sure the idea isn't new, or hard to grasp.
Because the media get paid to generate interest, you can expect them to add to or emphasise things to make them more interesting.
Anyone who gets paid to generate interest by telling "true" stories is questionable.
Doesn't that make Billy's cellphone a single function device?

I'm interested in this constant-time factorization algorithm. Tell me more. :)
