  1. All your seed are belong to us!! on Can I See Your License for those Plants, Sir? · · Score: 1

    Can't beleive no-one's said that yet! More seriously though - could Monsanto just 'accidentally' release seeds over a wide area and then sue every 'commercial' farmer who's land they then grow on?? In which case, can we expect a genetic mod. to make the seed glow in the dark or something similar to effect easier detection!? Perhaps they'll develop a seed which runs an embedded Linux wireless module - oops, wrong thread! This does bode the question though - how the f**k did Monsanto find out he was growing 'their' seeds in the first place??? and then... Could this decision be extended to anyone who doesn't destroy plants on 'their land' - e.g. land on which people don't grow 'commercially' - e.g. your garden!!!! Not a great day in Canadian Legal history - join the US, UK and Australians (at least) at the back of the class please... J

  2. Re:Short Attention Span Theater on The Making of PlayStation · · Score: 2

    Short attention span eh???? You've not played any videogames recently then... Personally, my spare-time has been swallowed whole by Phantasy Star Online of recent - 82 hours in 18 days... Short attention span eh???

  3. Re:Could we get a "Making of the DreamCast... on The Making of PlayStation · · Score: 1

    I can't imagine the DC History thing would be that interesting to be honest. A sordid tale of wasted opportunity due to a Sega's failure to make the DC as 'cool' as a PlayStation (sadly...) On the 'Links' front - I can recommend 2 books on the topic whole-heartedly however... Game Over by David Sheff The First Quarter by Steve Kent Both are tremendously entertaining and essential reading if Video Games are your 'thing'... TTFN JP
