Hardest country to invade? The one that doesn't exist in reality maybe! Or alien and/or robotic forces... As for real-world current states? What the others before me have said: either the big G20 countries (with Russia, China, the USA, India, and the EU countries as hardest to invade using...

Seriously, in my opinion countries have never and will never do anything themselves because they ARE in reality abstract notions trying to justify the political, social, cultural, economic, etc. self-interests of the population in that specific geographic locale! And governments and private...

Thanks for the nice thread. Here's my multi hex-a-boot setup. ;) GNU/Linux Mint 10 (my main OS since 2010, I use it for pretty much everything I need from a daily-use OS; Ubuntu/Debian-based), WinXP SP3 & Win 7 (for gaming/DirectX and Windoze-only apps), Ubuntu 10.10 (for fixing LM and as...

I agree with this completely (factually, although being an Eastern European the aftermath of the war for Eastern Europe were horrible in perspective). The Eastern front was the one which made the greatest contribution to the Allies' victory with its sheer scope and soldiers involved. D-Day...

Step 1: Switch to a different channel/film with the omnipotent remote control, obviously. If you can't, you're screw*d. Do some funny dances and wait for your imminent doom inside a 1000% booby trapped house, where you're inside the rock solid bullet-proof completely self-sustaining panic room...

Kudos for the good topic. Well, I personally don't have a single favorite quote, but I guess that any famous quote about the topic of truth would do. So here is a large selection of truth-related quotes that I found (most of them are among my favorite groups of quotes). * * * God...

That's the good old BaSS (Beneath a Steel Sky). A very good adventure/quest game if you ask me and hordes of other quest/adventure fans. ;) OK, my turn: The Cyrillic lable on the top left and the name of the URL/URI may allude to the answer if you can't figure it out by yourself. :D

Here are my one-liner ideas: "So, where's my hot nude babe when and where you need her?" "Man, I love potatoes. Who's up for nachos?" :) "... and I thought I was slow." "Man, I'm pretty!" "Dammit, another fine bullet wasted to a skull rather than to help me shave my moustache." "Did you...

In addition to my previous comment: THAT. I'm not a masochist after all despite my drawbacks as a person. Also these too: Indeed. ;) I would like to be able to hear the bullet plow through the dude that made me play the game. :) Yup, it's pointless despite all possible conditions in...

Well, Firefox is my all-time favorite all-round webbrowser, but I seem to catch myself using GChrome more and more... still, the only drawback of Firefox is that it gets quite heavy on the system memory usage. Chrome isn't perfect either since it has less add-ons than Firefox and is less...

No way, I would take life over any stupid potentially lethal game any time of the day. I value life more than games. And that's about it for me when it comes to dangerous stuff. You can never be completely safe, but putting yourself in excess and unneeded risk is just plain braindead. Only...

Power: full control of reality with my mind. Skill: sliding (travelling) between alternative universes. Why: What? You need an answer for that? Isn't it obvious? Total omniscience, total omnipotence and total omnipresence is what the above means, so that's it for the explanation part. ;)

This is a very good option. My thoughts exactly. Immortality is worth anything if/since it's really possible to find a way to become invincible by doing research while you're (near) immortal. Me too although I would go for more of a explorer's life around the cosmos than try to "rule"...

@Gormers1: So true. That's quite the one-sided opinion if you ask me. I know, mine isn't any less biased, but let's be honest here. It's a known fact that "cyber terrorism" ISN'T like real-life terrorism, it's true that it CAN help organize and coordinate the latter, but it can't...
