When Blizzard did it, a bunch of people complained, but then you realise that you're adding friends of your own, it's not like it's broadcasting your email and name across the internet to everyone.
Who over the age of 15 these days cares if their supposed "friends" knows their real name?
That's assuming that the computer that runs the universe exists in the same sense as the universe we know.
What if in the universe that the computer runs in, atoms don't exist and everything runs on something else?
Atoms are just an idea by the creator as the basis for how everything runs...
That's what I was thinking, set up a nice junction bit that looks slightly more like a target (not intentionally like a target though) and a security camera.
All you need to do is catch a few, make it well known that you've caught them and they've been punished and others won't bother to do it.
1. They're hilarious!
2. Their Policies page doesn't have a tl;dr section (seriously, it's a trillion pages long)
The Sex Party states their aims really simply, they say R Rating for games, No Internet Filtering/Spying.
Perfect.
That being said, I'm voting greens after the sex party.
Getting sick of both the Liberal and Labor governments:(
There's always the Sex Party, they've got decent enough policies, no internet filtering, no internet spying, R Rating for games...
What more could you want?

Policy in my work place states that I need to sight and make a copy of the licence agreement before the software is installed onto any machine.
If you're in a workplace like that, you need to lay down some rules:P
It took one really good dust storm to fill my poor MacBook up with Dust (in Australia).
Mind you, Apple repaired it under warranty because it was overheating, it's all good now.
I work in a school, we sometimes use images from Google Maps to say "Here's what our school looks like from above" as well as occasionally showing kids how maps work.
Not to mention if I'm going to other schools, I google map it to work out how to get there:)
I don't know what this guy is thinking >.
Looks like I'm on the of the lucky ones.
I'm a School Support Officer (Strange name) and my job is to integrate technology with the kids.
While I maintain about 100 computers in our small school, it's also my job to teach the teachers how to teach using the computers.
We've got a stack of interactive whiteboards, they're used so much that the teachers don't know what to do when one breaks (rarely happens I might add).
In our case, it's up to the school to provide the hardware, we've developed a full 4 year replacement strategy, where every computer is replaced every 4 years. We have a full Novell setup (tbh, Novell is pretty slow and poorly implemented but it does do the job).
I think it's up to the schools themselves to build themselves a proper IT plan and then hire someone (like myself) to maintain the setup and help the teachers to teach.

Are you sure it's only QLD? The wiki page references only point to QLD sources but doesn't say that it's not illegal in other states...
In Australia, this is illegal. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headlight_flashing#Australia You should still do it in case of an accident however to warn people coming up about it.
Then a bunch of strange guys will blow you up in your house... And EA... And everyone else who plays the game.... ... Boom!

Could I crowd source my home work?
Was about to say "argh the site is down!"

I like how you refer to Australia as some far away land....
