mircea_popescu: i just can't conceive how
that'd happen. maybe if
the round was hand filled with dust ?
mircea_popescu: a .45 round will go
through an engine block, let alone some bloke
mircea_popescu: even
taking a more historically accurate 200 km/h which is what i did...
ThickAsThieves: maybe it was a joke never properly explained,
they
threw
the guns at eachother
moiety: we had a bren but we arent allowed it back with out getting
the licence redone in England
ThickAsThieves: here russia,
take all
these guns,
they work fine
trust me!
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves double
the chain with kevlar, he can shoot you
till he gets bored.
mircea_popescu: nothing quite like
the shit exploding in
the cop's hands
ThickAsThieves: yeah now
these drone vid guys wanna sort humane help for cops
mircea_popescu: also,
tasers are stupid easy
to counteract. no idea why anyone
thinks
they're effective or anything.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves people volunteer for women in heels
to walk all over
their ballsack.
mircea_popescu: i have no idea what sort of reverse midas effect
this is, but it's uncanny
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform journos must seriously be going
to a special retardation school.

Duffer1: holy shit MP it's Donna's parents from
That 70s Show
mircea_popescu: "The
two went
through a contentious divorce in 1999 but remained friends, business partners and housemates sharing
the $3.7 million, six bedroom, eight bathroom home."

ThickAsThieves: mp did you ever play
that iOS game where every
time you die you are
the son?
Duffer1: i had one of every class
to learn pvp weaknesses
mircea_popescu: why do you want
to play anything other
than your character anyway ? because inept game design introduced artificial barriers perhaps ?
Duffer1: if you're going
to make every lvl 80 character class look
the same in end game
then you better damned well make
them look good
ThickAsThieves: it sounds silly but ugly models definitely contributed
to me losing interest in raiding
too
Duffer1: i don't miss wow hehe, i do miss cracking out on a good mmo
though, it's been a really long
time
Duffer1: it's like
they had one modeller doing everything, who's style showed
throughout every piece of gear, and
the rest of
the
team were disgruntled
texture artists
Duffer1: in wow i always got
the sense
that
the
texture artists were really unhappy with
the models
they got
ThickAsThieves: basically dota 2 riffed off WoW and removed some of
the cartoony aspects
Duffer1: try
the first borderlands if you're into rpgs
cazalla: disagree it's borderlands
type
though as i hate
that style
too
Duffer1: borderlands art is infinitely better
than lol
ThickAsThieves: i'm not
terribly familiar with LoL, even
though it's more popular
cazalla: yet
to play
that but i assume outfits are just
their version of LoL skins?
ThickAsThieves: it seems stupid, but dota 2 letting you buy outfits is such a better solution
then just not designing new ones
cazalla: i'm looking forward
to EQN but i doubt it'll be as hardcore as
the original,
that's not so bad once you have kids
though
Duffer1: i have no interest in mists of pandas or
the new one
cazalla: i quit after
that wotlk, far
too much hand holding, it became really boring
Duffer1: ya
they introduced it wayyyy
too late
ThickAsThieves: they introduced
that around
the
time i stopped playing
Duffer1: with legacy honor gear
that's
tradable
to your alts
that give massive xp bonuses
cazalla: although i will agree
that with an older game like WoW, it makes sense
to let people buy levels as it's population heavy at
the
top end
ThickAsThieves: likein WoW,
there was often a shortage of
tanks and healers
Duffer1: i like how wow eventually
tackled
that problem
ThickAsThieves: sure, maybe
the first
time, and less and less each
time after
cazalla: just so
that it actually means something
to have a max level character
cazalla: you need
to make
the leveling process slow if you do it
that way imo
cazalla: ThickAsThieves: you end up with more idiots who don't know how
to play
their class
that way
cazalla: buying/selling items
that i find legitimately in game is just common sense
