Maybe not an outright defense, but a lot of your statements have an apologist tone to them. Many of your interpretations of history are a bit "different" from the academic establishment as well. Hitler didn't come to power by force, but he sure wasn't elected. The problem was that he had an...

Who the eff are you to declare what is moral or immoral? The man's point was that the cost of the US "War on Drugs" is solely on the government that decides drug use is somehow immoral, therefore illegal and the provenance of organized crime. Were there not some asshole moralizing fools deciding...

Shouldn't this actually be called the 100 cities with smartest Apple users?

Was it Castle of the Winds? Your description of simple but very fun made me think of it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castle_of_the_Winds

I understand how some here get worked up over what might be overzealous persecution of US business by the EU, but the anti-bias is pretty ridiculous. Steve, these legal rights for internet users are a good thing, because previously there were NO legal rights for internet users. There were no...

The beauty of Risen is that it captures the essence of the earlier Gothic series. Gothic 3 is definitely worth playing (with the community patch installed!) but it is somewhat different from the earlier games

This is the final patch by the community team (or anyone else for that matter) for Gothic 3 It is a behemoth of a patch, weighing in at over 800mb. It fixes a multitude of problems and adds many different enhancements, ranging from simple terrain item placements to complete rebalancing of...

Nobody needs to take shots at Sweden and Finland just because some troll is making stuff up. I'm not going to say anything about Sweden's broadband infrastructure, because it is impressive (that's what happens when your socialist government makes good investments). Finland has nothing...

Despite all its "stifling" socialism and taxes, Germany is one of the largest exporters of manufactured goods in the world, and it has something the US can only dream of at this point: a trade SURPLUS. It also has a very good university system and many corporations that contribute towards it...

What some complete and total idiots in this thread fail to realize is that just because a marriage (or any sort of relationship) exists, it does not in any way make it a successful relationship. In other words, there are many marriages across the world that SHOULD end, but do not because of...

In its original form, Gothic 3 was indeed so ridiculously buggy that it was not worth playing. With Community Patch 1.6 installed, the game is enjoyable. It will never live up to the enormous potential that Piranha Bytes had with that game, and as a huge fan of the Gothic series that is really...

Here in the US, our average income tax rate isn't over 50% and a Big Mac isn't over the equivalent of $10, so some might say Denmark has a long way to go (or maybe they've just gone too far?).

So the view of one politician from one conservative political party represents an entire county now? Wait a sec, maybe that's why America has such a sparkling image abroad.

To anyone with a Via Envy 24 soundcard thinking of buying Serious Sam 2: there are major issues with the sound in this game and Via Envy 24 soundcards. It causes stuttering which makes the game basically unplayable. This is seperate from the issue the game has been having with AC97...

What are the best Sennheiser cans you've listened to? Have you heard anything other than your HD 590? You tell him not to split his budget between headphones and amp, then suggest a set of headphones that by almost anyone's opinion REQUIRES an amp...
