| MinceR | i don't know what innuendo would that be | May 24 22:44 |
| DaemonFC | think about it for a while | May 24 22:45 |

| DaemonFC | MinceR: That article is more than two years old | May 24 23:11 |
| DaemonFC | :) | May 24 23:11 |
| DaemonFC | "Pooping. Poop is coming out now. | May 24 23:12 |
| DaemonFC | This tweet brought to you by Ex-Lax. Helping you to "go", when the going gets tough." | May 24 23:12 |
| DaemonFC | lol | May 24 23:12 |
| MinceR | sounds like a typical tweet to me | May 24 23:13 |
| cubezzz | wow, I hope I didn't miss anything important in irc today | May 24 23:18 |
| DaemonFC | I watched "Something...Something...Something...Dark Side" finally :P | May 24 23:23 |
| DaemonFC | Leia: "We're going to get pulverized" | May 24 23:23 |
| DaemonFC | Han: "Relax, we've got like four out of the five main characters in here, we'll be fine!" | May 24 23:24 |
| DaemonFC | :D | May 24 23:24 |

| DaemonFC | Herbert The Pervert as Obi Wan | May 24 23:25 |
| DaemonFC | "Luke, pull your pants down!!!" | May 24 23:25 |
| DaemonFC | Mort as Lando Calrissian | May 24 23:27 |
| DaemonFC | :P | May 24 23:27 |
| ThistleWeb | it has it's momments | May 24 23:27 |
| ThistleWeb | the worm shot on the at-ats had me in stitches | May 24 23:27 |
| DaemonFC | my favorite part was that Mexican house cleaning lady bugging Darth Vader while we has trying to talk to the AT-AT commander :P | May 24 23:28 |
| DaemonFC | *he | May 24 23:28 |
| ThistleWeb | yeah | May 24 23:28 |
| ThistleWeb | the second was better than thr first, but both had patchy humour | May 24 23:29 |
| ThistleWeb | some funny parts but not consistently funny | May 24 23:29 |
| DaemonFC | yeah, I noticed that | May 24 23:29 |
| DaemonFC | they have it on Blu Ray at Walmart | May 24 23:29 |
| DaemonFC | but it's not something I want to buy a copy of :P | May 24 23:29 |
| DaemonFC | ThistleWeb: What's funny is this Amazon Video On Demand | May 24 23:30 |
| DaemonFC | Blockbuster has something similar | May 24 23:30 |
| ThistleWeb | lol | May 24 23:30 |
| DaemonFC | where you can "Buy" the movie for Blu Ray prices but all you get is a heavily DRM's Windows Media file | May 24 23:30 |
| DaemonFC | if these places have taught us anything it's that when Amazon or Blockbuster lose money, they'll fold up and your file won't play anymore | May 24 23:31 |
| DaemonFC | why do people fall for the same old traps every time? | May 24 23:31 |
| MinceR | because they're vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly stupid | May 24 23:32 |
| MinceR | they consider the risks of DRM unlikely and theoretical even if you show them a handful of examples | May 24 23:32 |
| MinceR | i've read the EULA of Steam recently, it's the same kind of crap | May 24 23:32 |
| DaemonFC | yeah, it's possible to gather a small fortune's worth of movies or music | May 24 23:32 |
| DaemonFC | just to have them all stolen from you by DRM | May 24 23:33 |
| MinceR | actually they can even take stuff you bought away from you without going down | May 24 23:33 |
| cubezzz | not really | May 24 23:33 |
| cubezzz | I've never seen any DRM which is undefeatable | May 24 23:33 |
| MinceR | then again, many non-game DRM systems do the same | May 24 23:33 |
| MinceR | (swindle vs 1984) | May 24 23:33 |
| DaemonFC | well, what's really shitty is that they sell boxed games on disc now that trick you into buying them | May 24 23:33 |
| DaemonFC | then they have Steam on the disc | May 24 23:34 |
| DaemonFC | and you can't get your money back when you find that out | May 24 23:34 |
| MinceR | yeah, i was afraid it's like that | May 24 23:34 |
| cubezzz | I don't think any of the old Loki games had DRM | May 24 23:34 |
| DaemonFC | no, they didn't | May 24 23:34 |
| MinceR | the new ones do, afaik | May 24 23:34 |
| MinceR | (whatever loki is called now) | May 24 23:35 |
| cubezzz | there is no Loki now | May 24 23:35 |
| cubezzz | just LGP | May 24 23:35 |
| DaemonFC | Loki just made Linux installers and program files for Linux | May 24 23:35 |
| MinceR | same thing | May 24 23:35 |
| DaemonFC | you still needed the Windows version of the game | May 24 23:35 |
| DaemonFC | so it could pull the data off the disc | May 24 23:35 |
| MinceR | back then it was enough to own the winblows version, wasn't it? | May 24 23:36 |
| DaemonFC | I'm sure someone at Loki figured it would be hellaciously profitable | May 24 23:36 |
| cubezzz | so who is making games without DRM? | May 24 23:36 |
| MinceR | postal2 came out as a separate offering for gnu/linux | May 24 23:36 |
| DaemonFC | seeing as you port the engine once and there may be 10 other games that use the same engine | May 24 23:36 |
| MinceR | cubezzz: well, nexuiz/xonotic is without DRM :> | May 24 23:36 |
| DaemonFC | what was the deal with that? | May 24 23:36 |
| DaemonFC | Didn't they steal code from Nexuiz and try to closed source it? | May 24 23:37 |
| MinceR | something like that | May 24 23:37 |
| MinceR | so there's xonotic now | May 24 23:37 |
| DaemonFC | something about one guy in the project trying to sell the whole thing | May 24 23:37 |
| DaemonFC | even though it's mostly not his work | May 24 23:37 |
| DaemonFC | (Xchat) | May 24 23:37 |
| DaemonFC | the way I understand it in cases like this is that you can relicense your own contributions, but you can't speak for the entire project | May 24 23:38 |
| DaemonFC | so Linus couldn't relicense Linux even if he wanted to | May 24 23:38 |
| DaemonFC | :) | May 24 23:38 |
| MinceR | it depends on whether contributors are forced/persuaded to hand their copyright ownership over | May 24 23:39 |
| DaemonFC | you'd have to get permission from thousands of people | May 24 23:39 |
| DaemonFC | or rewrite anything you didn't commit | May 24 23:39 |
| MinceR | what makes things worse is that both ways have their risks | May 24 23:39 |
| DaemonFC | brb, have to go find something to satisfy my caffeine addiction | May 24 23:41 |
| DaemonFC | promised myself I could buy some Mountain Dew on the condition that I finish off those godawful TV dinners that I've had forever tomorrow :P | May 24 23:42 |
| *DaemonFC is short on cash | May 24 23:42 | |
| -BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[ruiseabra] ♺@claytoncubitt Let me get this straight, the guy who failed to blow up an SUV in NYC's in jail,but the guys who blew up an oil rig are not? | May 24 23:50 | |
