Robotic Smartphone Screen Test

Keep in mind that they're comparing apples to oranges (at least with the iphone). The iphone uses a capacitive touch screen vs. many of those others are resistive. Two different technologies; the capacitive being the newer and better tech, IMO.
That's not strictly true - they're testing smart phones against smart phones.
The technology behind it is a bit irrelevant if you're looking to buy a smartphone with a good touch screen, really. I'm not going to go "well it's less recent tech so i'll buy x phone for trying harder"
Perhaps, but in a sense some of these smartphones have a significant difference in a major tech - the screen type. Sure they're both "smartphones", but they're not the same.
It's like comparing a stickshift to an automatic. Sure, they're both cars, but their transmissions are significantly different.

^ I think the Droid, Eris, and Nexus all use capacitive touch, though an older version than the iPhone being tested.
If that Droid is a capacitive touch screen, then it's quite possibly the worst capacitive touch screen I've ever seen tested.
Ick.
Yea, the others are definitely better. The specs say the Droid is capacitive, so that's what I'm going by.
I have a Droid, but the screen really isn't terrible. I can't touch the screen lightly enough that it doesn't register, so sensitivity isn't ever an issue. The only problems I come across with accuracy are either with very small links (zoomed out on web pages) or when using the vertical keyboard (might miss the key 1 or 2 times out of 10).
Those accuracy issues are compensated by the physical keyboard and pinch-zooming in the browser (Dolphin). I also have 2.1 (cyanogen + 1Ghz kernal) on there so speech-to-text is available as well.
I certainly wouldn't complain if the screen were more accurate, but it isn't as much of a problem as the robotic test would seem to indicate. Besides, I figured my Droid would be obsolete in under a year anyway. =)

Swine Flu Update - What's really going on? (Blog Entry by EndAll)
^That's the free market for you. You can thank our strong government for keeping them from continuing to sell it in the US (Edit: Before you fly off your libertarian handle, this is half-sarcasm).
I'm done, after this, but in reference to ^ ^ ^:
There is no evidence for 1 or 3 (in re: bio-engineered). I'm not sure about 4--you make it sound as if it was a race between staff experimenting on the ferrets before the drug got to market when really the ferret-testing was probably part of a screening test. I don't know their practices, though, so that's just conjecture.
As for 7, that is absolutely not what NSPD-51 says.
And most of the other points are manipulations of the facts.

the unfortunate side of this is people now see you voted for it .. recognize you .. and follow suit ..
In reply to this comment by kronosposeidon:
Shit. Well, we'll just have to keep a watchful eye on him for now then. I'll continue to check on his voting record, and if it continues as it does for much longer we will have a better case for banination. I won't vote for his videos anymore, so hopefully that will keep him from getting his bronze star.
Thanks for pointing this out to me.

I did contact dag when the snuff clip was submitted and he did discard it.
I also contacted lucky about the MrFisk connection but he replied they must just be friends etc ..
but to me it's obvious when you look at his upvotes .. they are all for MrFisk. And the 2 videos he has submitted MrFisk has voted them up within a few minutes of them being queued. Obviously something is wrong with that. Even if they are friends you're supposed to vote on the video .. not the person .. and anyone who looks at http://www.videosift.com/member/DrAlcibiades/votedup can see that isn't the case.

I'm going to ask dag or lucky how to proceed with this one, but I'm leaning towards a * ban.

and the fact that he is obviously a sock puppet for MrFisk or at the very least someone who is voting for his vids based on who he is rather than what he submits. And who MrFisk votes for also.

Oh well .. after talking to you dag and lucky about it I guess I just lost my mind:
