    When will we see the first RPG patent?

    Yes, but it's costly. Large companies can afford it, I can't.

    When will we see the first RPG patent?

    Interesting, I didn't know about this patent, thanks. Link: Trading card game method of play You can patent animals (google GloFish or Monsanto) and genes... Believe me, you can patent RPGs. It's just a matter of when it will happen.

    iTunes--how does it work exactly?

    Nice, do you have some links? There are dozens of cases of creating/selling the programs, but I haven't found any about regular Joe's using them.

    When will we see the first RPG patent?

    Most people don't care much about patents. Yet, it's one of the hottest topics among computer programmers. For years, larger companies have been able to patent vague and generic ideas, not actually inventions, but ideas. Amazon has a patent on "buying a product online with only one click"...

    Reykjavik

    There is a, uh, penis museum, eh, there. Other than that, I don't know any real odd tourist attractions except for the geysers.

    iTunes--how does it work exactly?

    I'm not sure, but it hasn't been tested in court either. As long as you don't share the song when the DRM is removed you haven't really done anything wrong though, according to most people.

    If you have an older TV or HDTV or monitor you are screwed!

    Link 1: http://arstechnica.com/articles/paedia/hardware/hdcp-vista.ars Link 2: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDCP You have probably heard about movie studios being annoyed with piracy. You have also probably heard about the new HD-DVD or Blu-Ray, that is the higher quality DVD's being worked on...

    iTunes--how does it work exactly?

    Aren't the itunes files m4p? (That is, normal mpeg 4 aac) with DRM? (the p). Anyhow, it's not illegal to remove DRM in the same sense it's not illegal to use a region-free DVD player. So go ahead.

    iTunes--how does it work exactly?

    This tool: http://nanocrew.net/?page_id=123 for example, will convert the iTunes files to standard, non-DRM AAC files. Here's another tool that removes the annoying iTunes DRM: http://hymn-project.org/ Here's an alternative interface to the iTunes store, the good thing about this program it...

    Character maintenance

    This always happens: I create a new character in a text editor. I just barely finish it technically before the first game, so I just print it out and write HP and XP and new items etc on the back of the paper. I promise myself I will either print a new updated version or copy the character to a...

    Would you still play RPG:s if...

    ... the communities disappeared? ... you couldn't work with the game in your spare time, at all? ... the game of your choice was discontinued? Feel free to answer these questions, or create a question or two yourself. :) Honestly I think I wouldn't play D&D today if it weren't for the...

    Elements of a Military RPG

    Interesting. I've been thinking about this myself and I always get stuck at the same question... The reason. One of the more (if not the most) important element is the _reason_ the military exists. Why fight and risk your life for _your_ planet? In normal D&D and Star Wars games you just have...

    Death by Caffine

    It would take 331 cans of Coca-Cola Classic to put you down. It would take 250 cans of Diet Coke to put you down. Weird, why is it more caffeine in Diet Coke?

    What the freak?

    When you say it Stormfalcon I realize this is a typical Microsoft strategy. They did the same thing with the new Windows (Longhorn/Vista). They talked about really cool new technologies such as a new filesystem and a new shell/command line to hype the product... Then they removed it, or put it...

    D&D 4E Who else is going to be a deserter when 4e comes out?

    4e? Isn't that just a bad joke of a rumor? I have not been paying mutch attention the last few years though, but still. 3e and 3.5e were just released!

    Sir or Madam

    Heh, I've been calling people mates for as long as I remember ("Here you go mate", "Hope it fixes your computer, mate", "I hear you, mate") without thinking about it too much. Probably because I don't really care what other people call me. Except for a salesman who insisted on calling me Rambo...
