Stealing Anyone's IP is Low (Oct 04 2003 00:12 GMT) - Earlier this week, some low-life stole the source code for the soon to be released Half-Life 2 and then posted it. Now, I'm a huge Half-Life fan (I've played all the installments of Half-Life twice) and so I've been anxiously looking forward to HF2. But even if I hated HF, I'd still feel the same. If folks steal and redistribute IP of any kind, whether it's words, code, art, music, videos, etc, nobody will be able to afford to produce it anymore! And it's not like music or video, where the RIAA and theaters have done their level best to shear us at ever opportunity; |

Use Rory Blyth as your own personal PDC reporter (Oct 04 2003 00:12 GMT) - Rory Blyth, potentially the most entertaining writer in the bloggesphere, has offered to be your own personal PDC reporter, attending the topics that you can't and writing them up for you. I'm not sure if he's willing to do this, but maybe you could talk him into wearing your clothers while he does it. I'm XXL, Rory, and like neon colors. I'll send my session schedule later today and you just hit all the ones I can't, OK? Great. |

: Kommunikation und so (Oct 04 2003 00:11 GMT) - Ein Wort zuviel im Zorn gesagt ein Schritt zu weit nach vorn gewagt Schon ist es vorbei Was auch immer jetzt getan, was ich gesagt hab, ist gesagt. Was wie ewig schien ist schon Vergangenheit.... Dein Leben dreht sich nur im Kreis so voll von weggeworfener Zeit Deine Träume schiebst Du endlos vor dir her Du willst noch leben irgendwann doch wenn nicht heute, wann denn dann? Denn irgendwann ist auch ein Traum zu lange her Immer vorwärts, Schritt um Schritt, es geht kein Weg zurück und was jetzt ist wird nie mehr ungeschehen. Die Zeit läuft uns davon, was getan ist, ist getan und was jetzt ist wird nie mehr so geschehenSpät kommt die Erkenntnis, aber ich denke, Andreas hatte 1998 schon recht. |
