I would also have nightmares if I had some delicious bacon right in front of me and some invisible force stopped me from eating it.

#2 You do realize that Gorillas also fight in nature ?
Most zoos respect their natural way of living as much as they can. And most social animals use force to establish dominance, this is perfectly normal and it is the zoo's duty to let that happen.

-5 3. ErGo_404 commented 8 years ago on video This is how Russian spetsnaz deals with terrorists

#9 : many experts think the only reason ISIS can survive is because Bachar el Asad is still there in Syria. And the reason he is still there is because Russia helps him stay there.

So yeah, do ISIS a favor, move to Russia.

In most cases bears fear us, they only attack when they feel threatened. The photographer didn't move towards him, in fact he just didn't move so the bear probably didn't see him as a threat.

-1 8. ErGo_404 commented 9 years ago on video 10 Signs China's Military Is Weaker Than You Think

#6 : well, i'm sure they have the most powerful military in the world, all I was saying is that expensive gear does not make everything in a war.

#5 : They killed Saddam Hussein but they didn't win the war. The new Iraqi government has no power and is completely useless, the country is still ravaged by terrorist attacks, and a they caused ISIS to happen. I don't call that a victory, and I'm not really sure that Middle easterners should thank the US for their actions for the past 15 years.

+7 9. ErGo_404 commented 9 years ago on video 10 Signs China's Military Is Weaker Than You Think

This video is so stupid. Most of it is praising the American training and war budget. But America fought against Afghanistan and Irak and could not even win them, even with the very low budget "army" they were facing.

+11 10. ErGo_404 commented 9 years ago on video New shocking footage of the recent catastrophic explosions in China

#2 : movies are not horizontal because screens are. They are horizontal because that's the way our eyes can "read" them best. So no matter if you watch your video on a computer, a TV or your smartphone, they should be horizontal.

Now there is one exception to this rule, and this video is a good demonstration. Sometimes you want to capture a vertical event, like an explosion. If you planned it, you step back, use the right lens and there you go you can film it horizontally. But in those "unexpected events", you shoot with your smartphone, you don't have time to step back, and THEN and only THEN is it mildly acceptable to shoot your video vertically, because you wouldn't be able to capture the whole explosion otherwise.

#7 : not really, no. But the fact that you focused on that detail reveals a few things about you.
Oh and btw, never start a sentence with "Not to sound racist", because the rest will always sound racist.

Most skyscrapers sway just because of the wind. And most of the time you don't even feel it while inside the building.

#18 :
A lot of hungry people won't ever see the color of that meat.
The problem is not that we eat a lot, the problem is that we produce twice as much as we need and we end up throwing away a lot of it. Maybe we could produce less and/or share more with the ones who really need it.

#2 : I'm sure #(removed comment) said "player number 33" not because he was offended by the word "black" but because half the players are black, so just saying "the black guy" doesn't help much. :x

#10 : a lot of species in the zoo are not quite friendly with us. Are you telling us we shouldn't help them survive ?

Killing sharks (or .. not helping them) have more consequences than you may think.

+3 39. ErGo_404 commented 13 years ago on video Real Time Rendering Technology

#10 : the problem is that in the video the scene was completely fixed. Their algorithm runs just fine for fixed scenes, but there would be a serious drop in FPS if anything would move.
Also keep in mind that they only have a limited set of objects in the scene which are repeated, thus they can have a "huge" island without their program taking 40Tb of memory.
But it is really unfair from them to compare it to actual video games, because in our games objects are moving, the environment is not a repetition of a very limited amount of objects, etc etc.

Also keep in mind that this is a promotionnal video as they were trying to get some funds. So they only talk about the good aspects of their engine.

That being said, it still is really impressive.

#1 I know what I'm talking about, I'm French. What movie does this scene come from ? Maybe he just said a german name at the end of his second sentence which made me think he is german.
But I really don't recognise the typical french accent that I hear every day at work :D

The "Patrouille de France" is NOT a bunch of pilots trained for war, they are the acrobatic demonstration team of the french air force.

However, you are all right, the video is "real", but a few special effects were used for the final drawing.
