That’s why someone I was listening to (on a podcast) was advocating abandonment of the wifi because, let’s face it, almost everything interesting to do on the internet requires you to be signed in. Instead use cellular network cards for laptops, PDAs, netbooks, etc. They aren’t crack-proof, but they’re a lot harder to spoof

There’s nothing selfish about wanting nothing bad to happen to your friends (says one of your friends who wants nothing bad to happen to him).

This reminds me of those posters – everything I need in life I learned in kindergarten or something like that.

You’d think that online games would have taught you that people are jerks who can’t have nice things.

Hum… it looks like at least ultima 4 had an inn, and that came out in 1985. Why must you always ruin good things. =(

Ultima came out in 1980, but I can neither confirm nor deny that you could sleep to regain HP.

Yeah.. but how many of those games had HP that you can restore by sleeping?

The earliest I know of is the original FF, which came out in 1987… quite a coincidence don’t you think?

First video game: Technically 1947, but if we’re generous, 1972.

Min Chen: 1986

Nah.. video games learned that from me.

You also learned that sleeping is the best way to restore HP.
