didn't Day of the Lords have some nonlinearity in parts? I can't remember but i think you could visit the 4 corner towers in any order...

Also e1m5 is a good basic example of giving you two tasks and you choose the order to do them in.

JPL Had A Non-linear Map...

Forcing prisoners to play WOW is cruel and unusual punishment

The trading of virtual currencies in multiplayer games has become so rampant in China that it is increasingly difficult to regulate.

Yeah, I suppose only the government or correctional services could take responsibility for such cruel and.. oh, right.

Here's Some More

If only gold farming were regulated! That would fix everything!

I was saying in the first post that I see the Chinese government as enforcing torture in their correctional system, when governments are supposedly the ones who look after the people.

Yes, a bit naive.

That is a rather fascinating article. I will now talk to the Germans in British tones, and to Brits in German tones from now on. Linguistics is a fun subject, isn't it? :)

You needed 171 characters just to say that?

You guys really are unworthy of assimilation. I'm glad we overdesigned our equipment until we lost the war, because dealing with everybody's inefficiency 24/7 would be worse.

Xenophobia is so beneath me.

However... overall, our level of historical cultural guilt is waaaaaay bigger than yours.

I should give up on humour.

Pentagon: Cyber Attacks Can Count As Act Of War

Cyber wars should stay cyber. Otherwise it becomes a very slippery slope. A criminal act, or an act of espionage, isn't the same as an act of war.

Sabotage might be closer, but cybersabotage is super hard to pin on someone (stuxnet).
