Can this work as a good exercise for learning another language?
I can speak a great deal of German but I want to get to where it feels more natural to me. What I decided to do was go on every website i frequent and change the language to German. Also, if a movie has the option to be played in German i will watch it as such. I do this to hopefully get me to actually think in the language. Could this work or am I going about it the wrong way?
2 AnswersLanguages8 years agoWhy are some things taught as being objectively good?
Shakespeare for example. I absolutely HATED studying him back in high school. This doesn't mean I don't appreciate his talent in literature. Surely I am not alone in thinking that one's opinion of something should not be dictated by the impact someone or something has on the world around them. Thoughts?
2 AnswersPolls & Surveys8 years agoWhat are the Gorillaz in real life?
I've been an avid fan of them since their Demon Days release but I've been confused as to what the actual group is composed of. I understand the group is represented by four characters (Murdoc, 2d, Noodle, and Russel) in their music videos and artwork. But even when I've watched videos of them live I'm so confused. Is it one person? 2? 3? Their music involves rappers and choirs that i think may or may not even be part of the group. What exactly is going on behind those ape looking avatars?
2 AnswersPolls & Surveys9 years agoOdd Anti-Virus issue.?
I got some alerts yesterday on avast saying a trojan and malware were found. I do a system scan and it finds an infected file. I quarantine it (virus chest) and delete it. I keep getting the messages, however. I searched for help online and someone mentioned it could be a rootkit. I read about a prgram calle TdssKiller. I did a system scan for rootkits and it did find one. Quarantined it, deleted it. Ran another scan just to be safe and it finds nothing. i also downloaded AVG to use its rootkit scan tool. It also found nothing. I look through my program files an notice that the file is gone so I figure I'm safe at this point. A little later I got the two messages again. What exactly is going on? Nothing can find a problem at all and yet it still says "avast has blocked a trojan (sometimes malware". I've started to think that perhaps avast is just acting up? Does anyone know what's going on?
2 AnswersSoftware9 years agoI keep getting virus messages?
My avast keeps popping up saying "trojan horse blocked" or "malware blocked". I did a full system scan, found the infected file and moved it to the virus chest. Just now i got both messages saying it blocked a trojan horse and malware. Also, is it safe to delete what's in the virus chest?

2 AnswersVideo & Online Games9 years agoConfused about F.E.A.R story line.?
1) Why is Alma after the main characters of F.E.A.R 1 and 2?
2) In F.E.A.R 2 why are you in a hospital at one point and why are all the replicas killing everyone?
2 AnswersVideo & Online Games9 years agoDo you think games should focus more on multiplayer or single player? Why?
Personally I say single player. Typically single player games are a better experience and are something you can actually get IN to. Like Final Fantasy, Dragon Age, and Bioshock. They make attempts to actually reach an artistic level. Whereas games like CoD or Battlefield (nothing against them) seem to focus more toward a competitive gameplay that, in my opinion, is just boring. Back when i first got my 360 I seriously did not even use my entire free 3 months of Live with CoD4. It was just that boring to me. but I loved the campaign. Opinions?
2 AnswersVideo & Online Games9 years agoI'm confused about the F.E.AR storyline.?
I just recently got my hands on copies of F.E.A.R 1 & 2 as I've never had the chance to play them before. I just beat one and I gotta say, I'm quite stumped on a few things...
I understand that Alma is trying to take revenge from what happened to her, But how? Is she a ghost? Has she simply implanted herself in the mind of the main character? If so - how can she kill the people around her? Also, why does she need her son, Paxton to do all that? Is Paxton dead as well? How can he manifest himself in the manners he does? Is it all part of the fact that him and Alma are psychics and can do that?
I know it seems like a lot of questions but I feel the game didn't execute the story as well as i should have. Or perhaps I just didn't catch some things. Thanks in advance.

1 AnswerVideo & Online Games9 years agoAm I the only one sick and tired of multiplayer games?
Is it me or has the huge focus on multiplayer nowadays dumbed down a lot of games' true potential?
Let's take Brink for example. Now, whether or not you like it - we can all agree that (for those who have played it) the game has little to no depth to an otherwise interesting story plot. But had they put they're focus on a single player campaign we would probably have an in-depth story with some awesome character development. It might have even included some philosophical or artistic features about it, much like one would see in games like Bioshock.
Now, nothing wrong with multiplayer games. In fact, some of you may actually PREFER games which focus more on multiplayer - nothing more than opinion. Thoughts?

got the whole system down, although I am a little unsure about something. When you level a stat, does it automatically become a little better or is the only way to make a stat better by setting a perk?
