for example sacrificing a sheep or a cow to pleasure some God.
We don't do that anymore. You're talking about other religions here.
When you think it's funny that a squirrel gets shot away in a home-made canon to most likely get injured and possibly die I assume you don't care about animals.
It is funny ;). And I do care for animals. I just think you care too much about them. I hope you won't have nightmares with tortured animals :D.

[EDIT]
And if you think an animal in pain is funny, go jump off a bridge now.
You already talked about the funny moment. You too are assuming wrong that I make fun of animal pain.

Seems like someone's been browsing gif lately.
Not at all. I used stumble upon and this showed up, then made a few more clicks on that site to see if there's something interesting :P.
It kind of makes sense that conservative Christians think animal lives are worthless, I mean, if they believe the universe is 5000 years old because that's what some old fool wrote in a book, they're bound to be fucked up in the head.
Did I in any way insult you? Because you're indirectly insulting me. I did not say animals are worthless. I take care of animals from time to time at my grandmother. Why do you suddenly talk about religious problems when you know it's better to avoid them? Your opinion about Christians is very wrong. I don't mind though, people usually look at bad examples rather than good ones.
All you people talking about animal torture and... hah. You just make me laugh. How about a walk in the nature, leave your little box where you live and feel the nature.
The images\videos I showed you are not in any way horrible. Hey, did you ever eat a hamburger? You know what's there? Meat. Where did that come from? From space yeah?

[EDIT] Skals is right. Let's continue with the fun and stop this.

TWHL will survive. Because it's about half-life, not about hl1 and hl2. Which means that when hl2:ep3 is released(with new engine updates ofc, hmmm...I think, NO, VALVE WOULD BETTER UPDATE THAT ENGINE) we'll have new subjects to discuss of. And then HL3 and so on.
And about 5-10 years in the future there will be a hl1 mapping explosion as a lot of us will be nostalgic, it will be the first "vintage" mapping trend :).

TWHL is the titan of all mapping sites. Probably because it was founded in South Africa? :glad:

wakka wakka ee eee... cuz this Africa!

Ahhh... I suddenly got a feeling that makes me go and map :D.
Oh, and don't worry about the health of this site. After all, we have satchmo around :P.

@DiscoStu: Oh, so you have DSLR? From what I know there are some kind of "inverting" adaptors so you can mount the lens in the other direction. Oh well, but I only heard of this I don't really know if it's possible.

You Romanians host strange-looking butterflies
Wait 'till you see how strange-looking people we host too...

Anyway, about landscapes skals, Romania is home to some of the most beautiful landscapes, and if that's not true, then at least it's home to a very big variety of landscapes. We have it all: big mountains, hilly areas, fields... ahh... and I have the honour to live in a beautiful landscape too.
Hopefully I'll be able to finish a "no-comment" type of video presenting my area.

Yeah? Which one did you prefer?
I can't decide. Carmageddon1 had a cool style, and as a child I was really amused by those characters screaming at high speed.
Carmageddon2 was very dynamic and made me enjoy it a lot. Later I learned hex-cheating, maximizing the fun I could get.

Except for my next build, I'll be using SSD exclusively (within a year, mechanical drives will go the way of the floppy disks
First think of the big servers. They'll surely not use SSDs a long time from now on.
SSDs are currently designed only for your boot partition.

I think it has sense to make your own if you're a person like me: you know what you're looking for and think of possible future upgrades.
Also, always go for modular power supplies. They're much, much better.
