All MMOs have some kind of timesinks. It may be grinding, traveling and so on. If there was no timesinks, the game would run out of content pretty fast.
But it is this universe, and you have just been tricked by the evil spammers to visit their site (*wierd sounds from the twilightzone*)
Get ready for som kernel pr0n (of course in this case it is low quality pr0n, with lots of p00).
Just wait and see...

(but i dont really see the point to install linux to every piece of hardware that looks slightly similar to a computer (like xbox, toasters, lizards, broomsticks and so on and so forth...))
Imagine the mother board(heap) as a stack or a grid of chips, then open your computer and count the number of chips in it (then add a few, it is in the future after all), it wouldnt actually be hard to sneak some kind of survailance device in it (at least easier than to solder a chip onto someones motherboard). But it all was a joke anyway.
Wow. It will be even easier to bug a computer, just drop a survailiance device in it, or near it (preferably with a small flashing led on it, to the Mission Impossible soundtrack).
On the other hand, sweden hasnät had any wars 1814. And currently there is no big threat against Sweden (no Ivan lurking in the waters).
I think that warefare is defenently going to change. There isn't enough money or stupidity to start a full scale war these days. As we have seen on the news the only conflics around are either etnical conflicts (nigeria etc.) with lots of civillian casualties or big bulky old time armies trying to hunt down terrorist with the same means intended to use att full scale war agains russia, (iraq, israel/palestine).
The swedish defences goal is to hold sweden in seven days and bring so much damage to an invading force that that their costs would be so high that they would rather not attack. But as the i there are no huge army standing att the border. There is no need for a big armed force of sweden.
But the question still remains, what will the sweedish royal navy do with a stealth ship?
I didn't mean that the general public is positive to to technological advancements, but they tend to think there will be some (Sci-fi movies are a good example). And therefore they resist.
I have nothing against nanotech, bio-enginering and so on (actually it is not at all impossible that i am reaserching in some alike subject in a not to distant future). But it is always very hard to se the problems and limitations of some new technology before one encounter them, the fast aging of Dolly the sheep is one example. One should not take out any victory in advance.
Will it be possible for nanotech to build me a nuclear-powered car?
Because of the technological advancements done in the past fifty years or so. People are very optmistic about the future of science (not necesery the future of the human race).
I'm not trying to say that nanotech isn't going to change anything, I just don't think that it is going to counstruct a elevator to jupiter in my liftime.

I toast my bread on my powerbook G4. (With the power of OS X)
Once I put my cell-phone in a condom, it worked perfectly well in the shower though it didn't float. Maby elephant condoms work with powerbooks.

I can sense some similarities between the belief in nanotechnology (and why not biotech.) and the belief in nuclear power in the fifties.
