  1. My newest software on Adobe Threatens KIllustrator Over Name · · Score: 1
    My new software package will be called 'I', that's it, just 'I'. That was I can sue anyone who uses the letter I in the title of the software.

    I guess Adobe just doesn't realize how silly and ridiculous this whole thing is. It's not like they're stealing customers from Adobe, with Killustrator being for Linux, and Adobe with uhm... absolutely no programs for Linux.

  2. World game on Slashback: Antennae, Play, Book Larnin' · · Score: 2

    Holy crap! I remember playing the world game back in middle school. It's like I totally forgot about that until the article reminded me of it. Even though it's designed to me a zero-sum game, placing a bunch of middle school kids in the game is just asking for trouble. During the game, each country/region had a certain number of objects representing resources (play money, candles for energy, plastic fruits for food, etc). Even in the spirit of learning and all, I remember our team sending certain kids out to steal the other team's candles and fruits. I also remember bribing the media team for extra coverage of our country. Guess it just goes to show that even though the game was meant to be zero-sum where no one wins, the group's natural insticts were to steal and dominate the world.
