  1. Re:Not a surprise on US Falls to 24th Place For Broadband Penetration · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Well Finland is #190 with 15,5 pop per km and Sweden #185 with 20,0 pop per km. The USA has almost twice as large population density as Finland and about 1/3 larger than Sweden, but out of these countries still the lowest broadband penetration per capita figures. Wonder why..

  2. Every single day! on Details and Rumors of iPhone Restrictions Emerging · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Ah I'm so sick and tired of the iPhone hype. FFS it's a phone and not even that advanced one. It's so pale compared to the crown jewel Nokia N95. Sure the GUI looks cool, but in the mobile world pretty just doesn't cut it. Sure the GUI is a little prettier than series 60 3rd edition, but yeah.. so what. Where's the functionality? I smell a lot of trouble for the iPhone.. might do well in the US thou but I doubt it'll do too good in the far bigger markets in Europe and the rest of the world.

    Nice work Apple :D

  4. More people die in Afganistan and Iraq on Many Dead In Virginia Tech Shooting · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    More people die in Afghanistan and Iraq thanks to the USA about daily. Virginia is a red state isn't it? I bet it sucks to die but you fuck hole republicans have it coming. My thoughts go to all the non republicans who died.. but not any more than the people of Iraq and Afghanistan who are being terrorized by US fucks. Actually I don't give a flying fuck. 30 people isn't that big a number..

  5. Re:And why does it matter that they are 'terrorist on Sri Lankan Terrorists Hack Satellite · · Score: -1, Troll

    Terrorists have never won True.. US still doesn't control Iraq and they never will.

  6. Re:Divx is the key in me purchasing one too. on AppleTV Hits the Streets · · Score: 0

    So you only watch movies with English audio tracks huh? Or are you fluent in all the languages of the world? If not, fuck that's just pathetic!

  7. I pay on Unlimited Wireless Plans Coming · · Score: 0

    10 a month for unlimited 3G access (384kbps)

    and

    36 a month for unlimited 4mb/1mb adsl

    USA is so far behind :p

  8. Low-bandwidth on Sign Language Via Cell Phone · · Score: 0

    I wouldn't call 3g exactly low-bandwidth and you can't even make video calls in older networks.. so yeah - WTF is the submitter on?

  9. Global cooler on Water From Wind · · Score: 0

    This could potentially fight global warming by extracting some of that unnecessary green house gas (water vapour) from teh air :)

  10. I doubt it.. on Inside Apple's iPhone · · Score: 0

    These companies, like especially Nokia are very good at what they do. Nokia has released perfect phones, one after another. Feature packed, beautiful working guis, innovative design. Nokia is also the one that has developed most of these new technologies. I very, very much doubt a small company like Apple can do much apart from attaching that Apple sticker to the back of the phone..

  11. Stupid propaganda on Blogging in Iran Takes Courage · · Score: 0

  12. those numbers are plain wrong.. on Zune Sales Continue to Weaken · · Score: 0

    Nokia is by far the biggest seller of devices capable of mp3 playback. Biggest seller of digital cameras and cellphones as well.. go figure :)

  13. Looking at Russia.. on Chess Grandmaster Kasparov Versus President Putin · · Score: 0

    At the moment they're not ready for happy happy joy joy European democracy. No, they need the US illusion. They need a strong leader who can do just about anything w/out asking anyone. There's so much to be done there that takes "brute force".. I just hope they someday convert to real European democracy and don't follow the US illusion..

  14. Re:heartbreaking on White Dolphin Functionally Extict · · Score: 0

    In the book he mentions that there was a Baiji dolphin living in captivity. Why wasn't the specie saved like this? I mean dolphins are known to be able to make little babies in captivity..

  15. CS degree != programmer on Advice For Programmers Right Out of School · · Score: 0

    At least not where I study. Personally I'm specializing in Bioinformatics, but there's quite much to chose from. Algorithms, AI study, Teaching, Computer mathematics and Game design just to name a few paths to take. As you might have guessed most of these are cross-disciplinary sciences. I'm studying math, biology and computer science.

  16. In the first race.. on DARPA Challenge Prize Money Restored · · Score: 0

    The best robot made something like 5 km. In the second race 3 robots (if I remember correctly) were able to finish the race. I wonder if history will repeat itself. First time a utter failure and second time some make it. There's a great documentary about this race in a torrent site near you..

  17. Re:What about for driving? on Study Shows Cell Phones Safe · · Score: 0

    And that's why it's illegal in many countries just like drunk driving..

  19. This is how I do my studies.. on Best Buy Institutes Extreme Flex Time · · Score: 0

    I tend to attend lectures if I happen to be awake, otherwise not so much. This doesn't obviously work @ exam weeks, but apart from that I pretty much live w/out a schedule :)

    Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Samsung. They've been doing this for years and years and there is nothing new Apple can deliver..

  22. Re:So there's 3 billion people on Richest 2% Own Half the World's Wealth · · Score: 0

    What the hell are you talking about. I take it you're from the US if you think that there are 3 billion people in the world. Also 9% of Americans millionaires? Yeah right.. :D

    How could Apple sue Microsoft. Microsoft owns majority of Apple does it not?
