And I scored 136 on an I.Q. test (in kindergarten) and got 1260 on the SAT's (stoned off my ass). Only thing it proves are some people take tests better than others.
... and I must say it's a great game, they still have a few issues to iron out, but it's very playable (and fun if you like 4x games).
The support from StarDock however is awesome. They will be updating the game for an entire year after its release, and are giving away a free expansion pack for GalCIV in June (I think). Not to mention this is one of the most moddable games I've ever played, most of the data is kept in text files. GalCivs AI is one of the best I've ever played against. They will come from behind, they will spank your ass, they will fool you once or twice. They are updated to use tactics recorded from the saved games played by the top human players on the MetaVerse.
Why does the U.S. government insist on insinuating itself into every aspect of my life? I really don't want to pay $.01 for every email I send to get rid the 4-10 pieces of I get a day (and subseqently get rid of before I look at them with MailWasher).
The fee will start out small at a penny, but the cost *will* go up. Just like every other service ever thought up by the U.S. government. Eventually will be paying per MB for email like we do with snail mail.
Well I guess if this happens, people will start using & spamming IM more. Wonder what will happen then?
That's funny (& wierd) as hell, in the short time I played around with Lycoris Desktop (or maybe it was Lindows, I get em mixed up) I got more games to run, just playing around, than you did. No, I don't game on Linux, like I said I was just testing the distro out.
Last time I checked it was the Iraqis fault for letting a butcher take control of their country, invade another country, and subsequently get beaten back to Baghdad. The sanctions were put in place through a UN vote, including the UK, not by the US alone. It also shows the world that sanctions against despots don't work.
We giving them freedom, what else do we owe them?
But you're right, Iraq had the highest per-capita income in the middle-east before the first war. All of this started because of Saddam's greed in invading Kuwait.
Please, Please, Please use our stuff in embedded devices. I wouldn't be suprized if the EULA gives them full rights to any changes to the code either...
My parents treated me as a responsable adult from the time I was 16 or so (Privacy-wise too). Worked out pretty good for me, very badly for my younger brother (he wasn't as responsable as I, ended up getting into a lot of trouble).
btw.... I use all of the previously mentioned products, & I would love to be able to work on a Mac (or Linux or BeOS for that matter). It's just not going to happen.:(

Don't feel bad, my younger brother has an I.Q. of 144 and he's very dyslexic as well.
