Speaking in as computer scientist from London, and having worked at several unsuccessful start ups, watched others in similar start ups based in the UK and who have friends in the EU who are at successful start-ups, the one anecdotal piece of advise I have is this - Don't let public school 'boys' anywhere near your c-suite. They can't fathom how to work in a cooperative manner, and only see relationships in terms of being beneath or above. They tend to hire old school 'chums' instead of talent and lack creative ability. The only good thing they are good at is bring in investment, which is a bloody shame.

Well there is that :)

Here, let me fix that for you. Why do *some* anarchists hate *some* science. The original question was in a similar vein to : why do slashdotters hate sausages?

Would a knock-on effect be to cause great harm to web proxies used by people to circumvent state and corporate censorship, as well a download pirated stuff?

"Now, he is the only one who can see what he is doing on his computer." As long as he wears his tin foil hat obviously.

4 years will equal 2 years in prison at a cost of £42,000 a year. 42000 x 2 x 2 = £168,000 in tax money. Joy. PS Thinking of deleting my Facebook because frankly I say dumb stuff I don't mean when drunk.

"It's a trap"

Only if I can be a fighting-man?

Can you cut and paste this into all those forum comments who do this routinely. I was making a point about making a point.

Your wrong in my revised world view. I have a point to prove and therefore can twist history as much as I need to make it. ;)

OD&D - The perfect dungeon based roleplaying game, with dungeons. Just where the hell can I buy Chainmail?!
BD&D - Pandering to the Rogue-like crowd. Also, when my DM's in a bad mood with me and make up biased rules.
AD&D - Pandering to the Dungeon Master crowd. Also, can we not start at 5th level and I play a Wizard? With psionics?
2D&D - Pandering to Diablo crowd. Also, whoo, this all tastes a little Vanilla.
3D&D - Pandering to the Ultima Online crowd. Also, while I've spent 40 hours perfecting my NPC liche, it's too complicated to actually run.
4D&D - Pandering to the WOW crowd. Also, it's only fun when actually, you know, playing the game.

Now T&T, there is a game.
