So when my Asian friends come over and turn off my lights can I take them to court for infringement?

I know I'm late to the party, but another great read on the problems with text books is "The Muddle Machine: A Textbook Example of What's Wrong with Education" Available at: http://www.edutopia.org/muddle-machine
So why is the UK, and Europe in general, not a hot bed of solar/electric/green technology? You'd think with such high gas prices there would be a HUGE incentive to develop alternatives...
Even in videogames, you can not develop technology to attack or defend your virtual community without taking care of the essentials for your population first: making sure they are fed, clothed, housed, and educated.
So videogames are now the measure of morality?
Just goes to prove that knowledge wants to be free.
Just googled the news archives for 'irreversible climate change' + 'years away'. Hmmm... 50-100, 30-60, 15, 10, 5, already here -- and all those answers are from the last 5 years.
And if I'm not mistaken, sustainable nuclear fusion is STILL 20 years away (and we've be saying that for the last 30 years at least!)
Between Xerox and Palm, they've managed to patent cursive writing. Nice!
Sounds like they could benefit from a virtual environment to test things out in.
After this last year, I might not be as amazed as you think.
Yes, I see. This make perfect sense. What I want is a better way to partition my drives so I need to follow the 'encrypted' path. Can't imagine why I missed that...
Ever heard of LVM? Well, OK, maybe *YOU* have... but the Ubuntu folks sure haven't.
The problem really isn't R* or EA (not that they're faultless here), it's the employees. If you LOVE games so much that you're willing to sell you soul to a studio, then who's fault is it? It's like the battered wife that LOVE the man so much that she'll keep going back no matter how badly he beats her. Is the man faultless? Absolutely NOT! But it isn't he who continues to go back for more abuse.
Hey Devs, wake up! Stop putting up with the abuse! No need for a union, just stop taking it.
Oh yeah, and if it's true that studios hire 20-somethings and expect them gone by 30, let me tell you something... your 20-something. You have you're whole life in front of you. Quit. Move. Stand up and say, "NO!" Whatever you want, you're 20-something. The night is still young!! Once you get to be 40-something, you'll understand what I'm saying here.
The one day you'd sell your soul for something, souls are a glut.
