What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.
anybody else got this or was I chosen by this troll?
I describes experiments google did with it's image recognition software. When the network, which is trained to recognize images such as animals, is shown a normal landscape picture and asked to produce an image of it something like this happens:
As a long time and hardcore 'The Wire' fan I finally got to watch another Show by the creator David Simons. For me 'The Wire' was always the best thing I saw on TV (did not actually watch on a TV of course ). I liked other series like Breaking Bad, Sopranos, House of Cards, etc. but for me none got even close at what I think about The Wire. Of course these shows are all very different and in a way uncomparable but for me the documentary style, the level of detail and the presentation of reality without any moral highground was and will be always fantastic to watch.
So now I started watching the 2008 Mini-Series (7 episodes) "Generation Kill" about a Marine Battalion during the Iraq Invasion of 2003 based on an equally named book - and I 'm absolutely blown away again. Again, it feels like you are watching a documentary in movie format. You get presented the silliness, boredom, horror, idiocy and humanity of modern warfare in a way I never saw it before, i'ts not anti-war nor pro-war, just war. (Ok, the conclusion I make for this war is pretty negative, but you don't get necessarily forced to do that by the show)
So in short, if you liked The Wire, go watch this show. Just don't expect the level of different viewpoints and maybe not that intriguing characters, it is just 7 episodes full of normal marines in Iraq. However if you are not familiar with the Wire - don't expect too much action, like real war this is a lot about waiting. Maybe this is nothing for you, but if you are not sure just keep watching, it took a while for me too again to get me hooked.
And here have this fantastic real commercial from like 2000 or what that is mentioned in the show:
For anybody liking the humour of Flight of the Conchords or Eagle vs. Sharks. And I already love what they do with Vampire-lore from what I saw on those youtube clips (there is more). Looking forward to this, hope it will be on DVD soon or if a local cinema would play this even better! hilarious
really, I said it already but it would improve the fun for me so much. I am playing so little currently and if I do I usually only want to play some duels or when I have more time warm up a little. But I can't or have to start native for it because every fucking time there is a strat battle going on.
I know there is little dev support right now and many other things seem to me more important, but this bothers me for a long time in the mod and it would be a great improvement to have a small dedicated duel server.
I post here again, since I don't know if somebody responsible is aware of this. I never had much problems with crpg/warband or the server before this unlike many others. But since about 2 weeks there is this 'lag' or whatever you want to call it. It occurs randomly and it is as if animations are not playing. One moment a guy is doing nothing or holding his attack, the next his weapon is in your face without any movement shown. Also feints are often not displayed. Sometimes even character movements seems to skip (teleport) but it is much rarer and I am not sure if it is the same thing. Ping and fps are both not affected.
I heard many people qq about this in ts or in chat recently and though it seems to be server related it is not happening simultaneously for everybody. Sometimes I hardly can play while nobody else seems to have the issue and vice versa.
