If you choose to use the GPL license for art, all further modifications to said art will be done under the GPL License.
If someone were to grab your modified art, they'd have to use the GPL License as well.
On the other hand, CC-By-SA Means that you can use it on a closed-source game, however the art being CC-By-SA Means that your assets (and any modifications you make to them) can be used by other game devs.
Just because the sprites are RPG style doesn't mean you have to write an RPG. You could easily make a TCG (I'm working on one), or a Shmup featuring dragons instead of ships and killing villagers, or a Tactical RPG, or a bomberman-like game.
Point is that the sprites are useful for a lot of genres, you just have to be creative.
Leaving Gmail will be a gigantic pain in the ass, as most of my other online accounts link to that email address, but I'll get over it in the next few weeks.

The popular Greasemonkey Firefox extension (Which I believe is built-in on Google Chrome) lets the end user modify the javascript/css running on the site to the user's desires. There's a huge database on UserScripts.org that lets you browse site-specific mods to Twitter, Facebook and yes, Gmail.
Another very popular extension is "Better GMail 2", which basically packages some greasemonkey scripts into a single extension.
This works like a charm. I switched to Linux a few years ago and keep getting "Help me fix Win {XP|Vista|7}". I claim I forgot how to fix those computers (or where options are).:P
In Mexico, we're stuck with overpriced, capped data plans. I went a whole year using less than 100mb a month. You just need to change your habits. Youtube? Only use it on Wifi. duh. Downloading/Upgrading apps and music? Same.
IM and Email? Sure, use it. Using moderate browsing, email and IM, I spend about 3MB per day of 3G data. Everywhere I go, there's an Access Point I can hop into, be it Starbucks, McDonalds, the school or at work (Even piggybacking from a wired laptop using NetworkManager's network sharing thingie).
I recently switched to a 500mb plan and use ~300mb per month.

I'm an android developer, and whenever someone asks me about developing for Android devices, the first thing I tell them is that it may look like java and it might be syntax-compatible, but calling the Android Development Language 'Java' is a huge mistake that'll cost you a couple dozen hours in development time.
Would their zombie wings be able to make birds fly? I always figured zombie birds would be harmless, as they'd simply fall to the ground over their rotten flesh.
CyanogenMod is based on Android's source code. If it's fixed on the "official" HTC/Google Roms, I don't know. But this has happened to me, on CyanogenMod 5.0.8, on the G1. A reboot fixed it.
His implementation was different than their's, and if that's the case, they've got bigger issues, as one of their developers wrote a PDF on how Shazam Works..
And this guy certainly wasn't the first to write an article about How Shazam Works either.

If anyone cares, I've started a Google Detox, and will slowly start quitting their services.
I wrote a bit about it on my site, http://k3rnel.net/2011/07/24/starting-the-google-detox-rsslounge/ and in fact have already quit G+ and Buzz and all (And gave them a link to this Slashdot post as the reason for doing so).

Actually, Twilight in Space is Stargate: Atlantis. And Todd would kick Edward's ass any day, any time.
Google's NFC thing only works on Gingerbread phones that have the NFC chip. How many of the thousands of tablets and phones announced on CES have it?
Uhm, hell no.

Is the term you were looking for, I think.
Crowdsourced police? Sounds similar to those "Neighbors on Watch" signs I see on the streets.
Are you using 2.x mods? Because I'm pretty sure the problem started at Eclair, not Donut.
I beg to differ. http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=1385

Oh that's just mean :-(
Sorry. This was my first story submission. I'll keep this in mind, as well as other feedback I've gotten from other /.'rs. Thanks!
Yes, I am. As a non-native english writer, who has difficulties dealing with grammar nazism, I find commas useful to explain stuff. =P
Emailed him as you suggested. If Tim updates the story, great. Otherwise, I tried :-)

They're afraid of the code.
And there's a Windows Mobile, Nokia / Symbian, Blackberry app too. It's my fault for not Googling them up before hand..
Because I didn't Google it up properly. And Slashdot doesn't let me edit the story submission after I hit send. Its my fault.
Dude, I read it on the Internet, so it must be true.
I had to code on a car to finish the project, while a friend drove us to visit the customer.
He actually parked in the place furthest from the entry, and I had to walk/type on the laptop to finish coding.
No debugging was done to that program :P
Thats one 1337 way to close the shop!
It looks like shit in any browser :P
