Not at all, I'm in no way fluent (plus it was 8 years ago or so), but quite a lot of english words have roots in Germanic languages, so it seemed like the language would be easier to learn. Also the sentance structure is a little less alien to an English speaker.

p.s. my German treacher was also fluent in spanish & had taught both. She would also agree that german is easier to learn.
"This is an outrageous example of a corporation contorting copyright law and attempting to use the DMCA to out the identity of an individual sharing factual information. The DMCA's subpoena provision, which allows an entity to demand the identity of an alleged infringer from an Internet service provider prior to filing a lawsuit, is controversial to begin with. Behavior like this shows how susceptible it is to abuse."
This is the type of info that needs to get out to the public...
A girlfriend of mine has a GameCube, and I've been VERY impressed by some of the games on it. It might not have the best graphics of any console out there, but the games are unbeliveibly fun. The GBA link is just another nail in the X-Box coffin. (PS2 has backward compat., what does X-Box have? Oh, yeah "Trusted Computing");)
Same here, of course our clients include(d) WorldCom, Adelphia, 360 Com. & a handful of other crooked and/or bankrupt telecom companies. Thank God that the fiscal year has started over & our other clients (local gov. & infrastructure) can start spending money again.

No, just glad I took German in high school instead of French or Spanish ;)

I thought that was a question from Wil Wheaton.

Doesn't barratry only apply to the filing lawyer?

Wouldn't you love to see Dimitri sue the pants off of Adobe in a few months? I know I would...

It would be illegal in most states? I'm pretty sure the Dell dude is over 18. Could be wrong...

You might want to check that box out with some blank data & a blowtorch, more than likely the media will melt before the box is damaged.

I have CowboyNeal hold on to my offsite backups.

Good reason, I'm a UT guy myself....

Just wondering, why can't you run Quake under Linux/*BSD/WhateverYouUse. I ask this because I'm a total Linux idiot, and even I can get it working.
Jaysyn
I told them I wouldn't, besides you're an AC!
Jaysyn
No, that was my neighbor Brandon. You have to admit, that thing was waaay ahead of it's time.
