+&lt;p&gt;In my early years, I played
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Classic_Elite&quot;&gt;the epic game
+Elite&lt;/a&gt; on my PC.  I spent many months trading and fighting in
+space, and reached the &#39;elite&#39; fighting status before I moved on.  The
+original Elite game was available on Commodore 64 and the IBM PC
+edition I played had a 64 KB executable.  I am still impressed today
+that the authors managed to squeeze both a 3D engine and details about
+more than 2000 planet systems across 7 galaxies into a binary so
+small.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I have known about &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.oolite.org/&quot;&gt;the free
+software game Oolite inspired by Elite&lt;/a&gt; for a while, but did not
+really have time to test it properly until a few days ago.  It was
+great to discover that my old knowledge about trading routes were
+still valid.  But my fighting and flying abilities were gone, so I had
+to retrain to be able to dock on a space station.  And I am still not
+able to make much resistance when I am attacked by pirates, so I
+bougth and mounted the most powerful laser in the rear to be able to
+put up at least some resistance while fleeing for my life. :)&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;When playing Elite in the late eighties, I had to discover
+everything on my own, and I had long lists of prices seen on different
+planets to be able to decide where to trade what.  This time I had the
+advantages of the
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Main_Page&quot;&gt;Elite wiki&lt;/a&gt;,
+where information about each planet is easily available with common
+price ranges and suggested trading routes.  This improved my ability
+to earn money and I have been able to earn enough to buy a lot of
+useful equipent in a few days.  I believe I originally played for
+months before I could get a docking computer, while now I could get it
+after less then a week.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you like science fiction and dreamed of a life as a vagabond in
+space, you should try out Oolite.  It is available for Linux, MacOSX
+and Windows, and is included in Debian and derivatives since 2011.&lt;/p&gt;

+&lt;p&gt;Vi kommer til å annonsere en oppdatert policy, og skal undersøke om
+vi er pliktig å varsle Datatilsynet.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Det vi uansett ønsker å gjøre først, er å gå gjennom hele policy
+sammen med utviklerne og advokat, så vi er sikre på at vi går frem
+riktig og at det ikke er flere tvetydigheter som skjuler seg i
+teksten.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Har du andre idéer eller konkrete innspill til hva som kan gjøre
+policy tydeligere, tar vi gjerne imot det. Dette er et felt vi ønsker
+å være ryddige på.&lt;/p&gt;
+       
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Vi får se om de liker mine innspill, som i grunnen er å ikke pusse
+på personvernpolicyen men i stedet slutte å spre lesernes
+personopplysninger til eksterne aktører.&lt;/p&gt;
