Easily, it's all JS and HTML dom. As you can see in the YouTube demo (the video doesn't work in linux/ffox 3.5, since they don't provide an OGG source, but it should work elsewhere): http://www.youtube.com/html5 The play/seek widgets are all html and not flash/etc.
marking a major milestone for the company and the latest salvo in its ongoing battle with Microsoft for the minds and wallets of gadget lovers.
The move could present challenges for Palm....
since when is Palm directly up against microsoft. and is there really so much doubt in the community that Palm will totally screw everything up? It's a bit suspicious
3)censorship of everything or arbitrary censorship is still censorship. Also note, there are two kinds of censorship: the typical kind, where you just never publish it; and the kind where you restrict access in some way.
If I publish something but only let people who pay me see it, or publish it in a journal that only a few people have access to, or publish something, and then remove it, so no one can refer back to it, then that is censoring information.
You may believe that that kind of censorship is ethical, but it is still censorship.
1. News feed (story recommendations) are only seen by the admins.
2. comments rated below "-1" are censored [Note that this requires only two or three quick and biased moderators, and then no one can see it (i don't think the other moderators do either, but i've never moderated, so i don't know)]
3. (this is more subtle) does not store copies of the articles we link to. A lot of times servers delete or hide the stories, after a time period, and, though the slashdot blurb is available, the actual article has been censored (by them AND us)
Solutions: 1. At least, the emails should be viewable by everyone (another web page). At best, moderators should be able to rate-up and down stories, and when they get a high enough rating, they would appear on the homepage.
2. There should be a "-infinity" threshold.
3. I don't know about the legal stuff involved, but google caches the pages it hits. I don't see why we can't do the same.
Slashdot is one of the most uncensored news sources I know of. Why not make it closer to perfect?

What was the specific search that you typed into Bing and what was the website you were looking for?
My experiences have been more the opposite way when testing Bing.
I'm sure we're all very interested in where Bing's strengths are.

Why doesn't Slashdot ever top-post Firefox's replies:

Anonymous SSL gives NO security--man in the middle attacks are trivial.
This whole debate is like people complaining that 2+2 does not equal 5.
Grow up and face the boundaries of what you need for security (the first 'S' in SSL, folks).

I never type faster using Dvorak, 'cause I was raised as a qwerty, but, I can type much longer on dvorak without getting tired.
Also, you don't have to be in X to switch
"loadkeys dvorak" will do fine from the console (i'll let you figure out how to get back yourself =)
cheers
