Hi! What is the equiv of MIT/BSD Licensing (or even GPL) for that matter for artwork? There are some art work in open source games (like those distributed with Linux) that I would like to use in a (for-profit) game I'm developing. I'm curious what licenses I should look out for, what I should avoid, what experiences others have had. Thanks!

Hi! I'm about to release a few iPhone games. Given that we live in a world that pretty much anyone can sue anyone for anything (and I'm slightly paranoid); I'd like to protect myself from being sued just because some one finds my iPhone app insulting or anything else.

Having never actually worked in the real world, and always wondering "how to make money" in theory ...why hasn't property prices gone back up?it seems that in these days, rich people (like those with dynasty wealth) can easily buy up entire blocks ... wait until prices go back up, and rent them out in the future?like in the biblical story, when Egypt had the huge food famine, the rich (Pharaoh)...

Many areas of CS have "practical value": algorithms help us understand asymptotic speed of algorithms; security helps us avoid getting hacked; networks teach us how to deal with distributed, unreliable machines; machine learning helps us deal with noisy, large data sets; ... however, computer graphics research these days seems to be focused mainly on entertainment ... anyone here see what uses...
