"The Last Ninja" happens to be a classic series of games for the Commodore 64 that never stopped people from naming another game "Ninja". That System 3 would 'own' the word "Ninja" in the gaming world is patently absurd. Pun definitely intended.

That's not really to the point.

"Scrolls" is a just as arbitrary a word as "Arena", which very relevantly was the first of the Elder Scrolls games.

Study shows Android phones less prone to software problems. Same study. It's all in what you want it to look like.

You mean like the automatic translation of Android app descriptions in the Android Market (done, horribly badly, by Google)? I want my app descriptions in English, not in some horrible literal translation to a language Translate can't handle. Even worse is the translation of web pages going through up to three different translations (ie Hakku Chinese -> Mandarin -> English -> Swedish, or Nynorsk -> Bokmål -> English -> Dutch).

The need to silence critics is a bad sign, I'd have left too.

I like the home screen idea used in most smartphones and mobile units today where they present snippets or the most critical information of an app in a widget. Expanding the widget would launch the full screen version of the app. I see these bubbles as this idea expanded to large screen devices. I like it, but it's up to you what you do with it. You could clutter your screen entirely or you could enlarge the most important widgets. This ofc only works if you view the screen at a glance more than if you're actually doing some work, but while working you wouldn't want to be distracted with minor notifications or irrelevant info anyway, right?

No, he didn't.

Using that logic one can only come to the conclusion that the world we live in today is the best possible one given unlimited edits. I find that hard to believe.

I wish Palm had the money to buy Facebook, then I just might stick around just for the name.

It's probably swastika shaped.

Swedish is pirate enough as it is. Viking pirate!

Parlamentet hade ett fällgaller av finaste järn! Svinen hällde kokande olja på mina stridskamrater! Men bågskyttarna, era förbannade bågskyttar! Luften virvlade av pilspetsar och död!

Ah sorry. They stopped their broadcasts where I live several years ago, I guess I jumped to conclusions as we stopped referring to them as Sky. I guess they really have a valid claim after all.

BSkyB is the British Sky Broadcasting, formerly known as the Sky Channel, with the "Sky" part trademarked in television. I'd say he has a point, but noone says "Sky" anymore, especially after they started calling it BSkyB themselves. I dunno, do trademarks change or become invalid after rebrandings?
