"The government there has banned all electronic games across the country, including those that run on home computers, on Game Boy-style portable consoles, and on mobile phones. Thousands of tourists in Greece are unknowingly facing heavy fines or long terms in prison for owning mobile phones or portable video games.
Greek Law Number 3037, enacted at the end of July, explicitly forbids electronic games with 'electronic mechanisms and software' from public and private places, and people have already been fined tens of thousands of dollars for playing or owning games.
The law applies equally to visitors from abroad: "If you know these things are banned, you should not bring them in," said a commercial attaché at the Greek Embassy in London, who declined to give her name."
a lot of congressment are 75+ years old, if they DONT know about past judgements/cases, then they are too clueless to be in power, get rid of them. And get some new geeks in congress.
Wheres term limits on congress? 20 years should be long enough.
Its a free market, and as the same as a real free food market, sellers come and go!
Long time sellers are just like mafia, they use dirty tacktics to stay in, buy fake subsidies thru dodgy deals or offensive behaviour or a forced monopoly.
IF 50% of companies die every 12 months, who cares, as long as we keep getting new ones. Free markets are #1, a monopoly is as good as a communist govt supplied corporate.
I dont care what they support for linux is, coz my me, im not cheap ass and can afford >1 machine, and have a linux server/router box, and use windows as my desktop/game/video box.
