I’ve noticed something that has happened with my language learning, and I’m wondering if it’s happened to any other learners: I’ve been learning German much, much longer than French. That being the case, I know a great deal more of German. The language has become increasingly transparent to me, and most of what I work on now is listening skills and vocabulary acquisition. In the case of many of the words I learn, I have ...

Letzte Woche wurde ich vom SWR2 zu einem Gespräch über Hackerkultur eingeladen in einer Runde von TLA-Vertretern: Holm Friebe von der Zentralen Intelligenz Agentur (ZIA) und Günter Ennen vom Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI). Na und ich wurde natürlich als Repräsentant des Chaos Computer Club (CCC) befragt. So weit so gut. Zu meiner Überraschung kam der BSI-Vertreter mit allerlei überholten Feindbildern und sonstigen Stereotypen über Hacker daher, so dass sich ein wie ich ...

Rein, which in German means “pure”, is one of the best looking simple themes I have seen in a while. Usually the more colorful themes catch my eye the most but this one is well worth checking into. Here is a screenshot of this awesome monochrome flavored theme: You could definitely say this theme was offbeat and a ‘bit different for sure. You can pick up the Rein theme for Firefox 3 and up over ...

According to German news site Nachrichten, a passenger at the Linz airport set off alarms when his suitcase full of bacon was mistaken for a bomb. The story was translated with Google, so it's high on hilarity and low on verifiable detail. Apparently when asked to identify the suspicious material in his luggage, the passenger replied, "There is fat inside." This explanation understandably failed to allay concerns and the passenger was forced to remove the ...

[撰文：icebin] 這套看起來很普通的內衣已經經過2個多月的測試，而且馬上會在德國3000多名一線女警員身上裝配，這套防彈衣不同於老式的裝備，原來老式的通常會由一些金屬、鋼圈或者塑膠等構成，雖然會起到一些保護作用，但是如果受到攻擊還是會對女性身體構成其它衝擊傷害，而新型防彈衣的材料由棉料、聚酯、多元酯、彈性纖維、聚酰胺等構成，相當柔和的材料，對女性來講是最體貼不過了。

By Anthony Bourdain I had the monster averaging 120 mph. Bugs bouncing off the windshield sounded like golf balls. Every once in a while, somebody would pull up alongside like they wanted to play. I'd tap the gas and leave them like they were standing still, find myself doing a rock solid 140 with plenty to spare. Back down to 80 when I'd see the bulls and it felt like 20. But the truly impressive ...

Has BMW done just that with its 7-series?Even though the new, fifth-generation 7-series follows suit as the technology pacesetter by adding a bunch of high-tech features including active suspension damping, rear-wheel steering, night vision with pedestrian detection, lane-change warning, and side-view cameras, ...

Filed under: CellphonesGermany wanted $6.2 million in research subsidies back from Nokia, and in addition to the "tens of millions" that the company has already relinquished after the highly-disputed Bochum plant closing, it'll be coughing up another €1.3 million ($2.04 million) to hopefully close the door on the matter. Said payment will be addressed to North Rhine-Westphalia, which was quite angry after the handset maker decided to hack 2,300 jobs from Germany and relocate operations ...

I'm glad the Germans got rid of the funny moustaches, the kinky uniforms, and they are on our side now, because these mini-tanks and mini-trucks—which could be deployed inside standard transport helicopters—give a new meaning to the word blitzkrieg. They can be rolled out in any location in a matter of seconds, as this recent video shows. Apparently the trucks have not been very successful in actual use in Afghanistan, but the Wiesel 2 multi-role ...
