Famous patent troll Uniloc is suing the creators of popular indie title Minecraft (PDF), which it claims infringes a patent it holds on copy protection software. But it might need to improve its own game, as the filing misspells its target as "Mindcraft", and developer Markus "Notch" Persson has already vowed not to give in. "Step 1: Wake up. Step 2: Check email. Step 3: See we're being sued for patent infringement. Step 4: Smile," Notch wrote at Twitter. "Unfortunately for them, they're suing us over a software patent. If needed, I will throw piles of money at making sure they don't get a cent." Filed in 2001 and awarded in 2005, Uniloc's patent describes a system for "p…

Lionhead Studios is reaching out to Fable fans for their input to help decide the fate of Albion with a survey. The quick survey asks which features like british humor, customizing your character, being a hero, co-op, and more you prefer over the others.

In what could be the world's first climate-induced migration of modern times, Anote Tong, the Kiribati president, said he was in talks with Fiji's military government to buy up to 5,000 acres of freehold land on which his countrymen could be housed. Some of Kiribati's 32 pancake-flat coral atolls, which straddle the equator over 1,350,000 square miles of ocean, are already disappearing beneath the waves. Most of its 113,000 people are crammed on to Tarawa, the administrative centre, a chain of islets which curve in a horseshoe shape around a lagoon. "This is the last resort, there's no way out of this one," Mr Tong said. "Our people will have to move as the tides have rea…

Famous Russian singer and internet sensation, Eduard Khil, passed away today (whatever time it is over there) at the age of 77. I know he had a really bad stroke last week and wasn't going well. Looks like it took a turn for the worst and wasn't able to recover.

First off, I installed my 2nd cd-rom drive on my older computer Then my brother tells me theres a computer that I can have if I just hook all the parts on the inside back up, I said I was fine with that and I hooked everything up, powered her up and no screen.

Motherboard - that particular one retails for almost $400 on amazon or newegg can't remember which one I saw it through. Moving on, my computer (never opened or touched until things went bad) decided to give me an amber light and 2 bee…
