Second Life? No, Second Hell!!!

This link points to a cartoon of the German computer magazine c’t – many know the Heise newsticker, perhaps.

The "new" continent in the East has been named Nautilus. Quite a silly name for a continent, if you ask me, but even better the new, yet to come continent with around who knows sims is going to be named Corsica. Yes, right, Corsica, like the island in the Mediterrenean Sea.

In reality Corsica belongs to France, but the inhabitants of it are not happy with that and still many consider the French people as occupants.

Interesting profiles #1

Found in someones profile:

SO, I WILL NOT ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT MY REAL LIFE!

Here is the bug for this in JIRA, the open issue tracker of LL, quite an interesting read about it. It goes back into March, quite a bad thing, if you ask me…
