@litchu dammit! I wanted to surpass you with my 1 000 000 particle code in C++ from two years ago. But looking at it now it isn't that impressive ): Lame...



I can remember it was much harder for me back then haha

That's so ****ed up. I just saw We Were Soldiers once again and saw also Lone Survivor and American Sniper. ****ing hell, every time I see these movies again I can't help but really think what the soldiers, Syrians, Americans, rebels or whoever think when they make the decision of killing someone and/or watching people die.

I can't help but compare the Syrian Civil War to the Spanish Civil War, in that Russia is now deploying it's Condor Legion. Let's just hope it doesn't escalate any further.

On a lighter note, can someone give this guy an award?

I dont think any human likes killing his own people. If they do is for ideology or because they're ordered to. It's a shame that we cant fix problems talking when in theory we're in a civilized world.

*cough* millions of people throughout history *cough*

It's unfortunate, but it's true. A shame those people didn't die sooner. Hitler was actually caught in a gass attack in WW1, but survived. Believe it or not, at one point he was living in Vienna, homeless. Yup. Hitler used to be a hobo.

There's a lot of people who enjoy or that they don't care about other peoples' lives. As well, the majority of people who choose to fight/kill have the option to do so or not.

I read that Hitler always told a story about how one day during ww1 he was crossing a open field when he saw that a French (maybe English) soldier was pointing his rifle at him. Instead of shooting,he let Hitler walk away. Dammit.

Someone who enjoys watching his own people suffer shouldn't be considered a human, but I bet Stalin ordered the killing of millions like we would in a online game. Just clicking a buttom or,in his case, saying 1 word. Of course Im talking about Stalin because he's the one that comes to my mind,but as Ani said there were millions throughout history.

Changing theme... that video is creepy @Aniallator :p
