    Movie buffs, please help!! (Version 2) What's the movie called?

    It doesn't look like it.

    Another thing that I should probably mention is that it's not a classic sniper movie, it just the only part of the movie I remember clearly. It's more like a standard action movie.

    Thanks for trying, but reading the plots to those movies revealed that its not the movie I'm looking for.

    And there was more then 2 people. 2 snipers, but several others.

    Movie buffs, please help!! (Version 2) What's the movie called?

    Hello Forum. I'll keep it as short and simple as I can; I'm looking for the name of a movie that I once saw. The only definitive part of the movie that I remember was towards the end of the movie. As far as I remember, there was a group of people assembled in some sort of team, and one of...

    Any movie buff, please help!!! Looking for a movie that I can't find!

    Ah, of course! It's been so long since I frequented this forum that I forgot how it worked. I use it now and then for purposes like this because I know it's filled with amazing people! : )

    I'll lock it then. Thanks a ton everyone!

    Yup, that's probably it. Thanks Moose!!

    I guess I'll watch it again to see if I still find it funny.

    If any mod would like to lock this thread, then go ahead. This issue is resolved : )

    Any movie buff, please help!!! Looking for a movie that I can't find!

    It may have been the same guys that made South Park, as they basically made "Team America".

    I think it's older then "Team America", but I'm not sure. So 2000 - 2005 range I'd say.

    They had red uniforms.

    I'm sorry, this is all I can remember.

    By the way, you know which movie I mean by "Armageddon"? Asteroid heading towards earth, a drill team led by Bruce Willis gets trained as astronauts and head up to destroy it with a nuke?

    Any movie buff, please help!!! Looking for a movie that I can't find!

    Hi. I'm looking for a movie that I saw once that reminded me of "Team America: World Police" in the way it was portrayed (IE puppets, or it might have been crude animation, but very similar to "Team America: World Police"), but its plot was more like the movie "Armageddon". I don't remember...

    Youtube. "Subscriptions" page not looking like it should

    Amontadillo 说:
    I meant no big difference in that yes, you can indeed still access people's videos. I did imply that it would take getting used to, did I not?
    No need to overreact thus.

    I'm sorry. I'm just a bit on edge since my nr. 1 source of entertainment has kind of gone from TV to Radio..

    Youtube. "Subscriptions" page not looking like it should

    Amontadillo 说:
    Well, then you're ****ed.

    Really, there's no big difference about it once you get used to it.  You can still access the things you need just fine.

    No big difference?

    Instead of having the whole page for all my different subscriptions they are cramped together in a tiny box? So that I can't just scroll the page to see the rest of my subscriptions, I have to scroll down in this tiny box?

    And when I click one of my subscriptions I get all the crap they've been up to and not just their videos (like "X_X_X_X have posted a comment on the video Y_Y_Y_Y"), but hey, I can just click "Uploads Only", super, now I only see their uploads! Until I click one of my next subscriptions to check out their videos, and all the sudden it has switched back to "All Activity" and I get all that silly, unnecessary crap again.

    And when I finally get to see their uploads it's 1 column..... First it used to be 5, then 4, then 2 but you could expand it to 4, then 2 but you could expand it to 3, now it's 1!!

    How on earth is that "not a difference"? Oh, they made a new version of the program "Life", it's not any different really.. You just have to walk with your eyes instead of your legs.

    I know what he's talking about, it only just changed now for me too and as usual, I hate it. I found a way around it though. I use Firefox and when I open a new tab, I have the nine buttons for favourite pages pre-set. One of them is the Youtube subs page, and when I load it from there, it looks the way it used to. It's easier to manouver, and videos you've watched go away, instead of cluttering up your feed.

    Is it really a new update? What do I have to do to stop youtube from ****ing me over?! Worship Satan? Sacrifice children? But, thank's for the Firefox tip.. I guess I'll try it. Just kind of in love with Chrome. I guess I could use Firefox for youtube and Chrome for everything else..

    (And before you make any Firefox vs Chrome argument, I use Chrome because of its minimalistic design. No other web browser have a smaller user interface. If you think Firefox is better the Chrome, then great, but it still takes up more screen space in interface then Chrome does) I'll be damned.. The newest version of Firefox doesn't look that bad actually..

    Youtube. "Subscriptions" page not looking like it should

    What..? I know they changed it to that some time ago (November..?), but I could still make it look like it does in picture 1 and 2 by clicking that little arrow next to my name and click "subscriptions". Now I can't get away from the way it looks in picture 3. And it was fine yesterday.

    Actually... It was fine earlier today! Then I rebooted because the computer had been on for a couple of weeks and were getting sluggish, and now I'm stuck at that darn "feed" page.. : (

    So everyone's youtube looks like picture 3? Even if you click that little arrow and click subscriptions?

    EDIT:

    Amontadillo 说:
    I don't quite understand... how is the new feed useless to you? What is it you're wanting to see on your subs page?

    I wan't it to look like it does in picture 1 and 2, not like it does in picture 3.

    I'm having an issue with Youtube. I can't get the "subscriptions" page to look right. I can't get away from the sort of "feed" page. So, I have links to a couple of images that will explain it better. This is what I want it to look like (the version of youtube in that image is a bit old, but...

    Yeah, that's the crazy thing that I have never encountered before either. Hehe.. Still on my laptop.. I really dislike talking to the house owners cause they are really weird and ask so many stupid personal questions. That's why I want a solution to this problem.

    Why didn't the Germans construct an Eastern "Siegfried Line"?

    In reply to Austupaio <<<Well.. The Russians came a bit earlier then the 7th of May 1945, when Germany still fortified against an allied invasion in Norway, even though the Russians were done taking countries, done taking provinces, done taking towns, and were now taking streets in Berlin, they still built fortifications against invasions that would never happen. And yes, I guess fortifications were built in Germany that were finished later then the one in Norway, but I still find it strange that they would sacrifice so much to defend Norway even though all it's purpose had been long lost (bases for submarines and the navy, airfields (that were basically never used) as well as the iron ore from Kiruna (Sweden) shipped through Narvik)

    And I didn't mean that they should have built a wall from the Crimea to Leningrad, because the time would have been too short. But from Danzig to Italy perhaps? In 1939? They would have plenty of time.

    To simply say that the Russians came too fast is not answer enough. Remember that Germany had over a year to build a wall from Danzig to Italy with only England to worry about.>>>



    In reply to Oberyn <<<If you mean that the allied had plans to invade Norway, then yes, they had. My rant on that part was the fact that Germany still defended and strengthened the defence of an area that was not effected by the war in the end game (apart from skirmishes in the far north of Norway between Germans and Russians. (The Russians kindly withdrew from Norway when Germany capitulated)).

    However, I do believe you meant "even before the Russians destroyed a lot of it", as the Russians destroyed basically everything during their scorched earth tactic. And I see what you mean too, but I didn't really mean the Atlantic wall, I meant the Siegfried Line. And the Siegfried Line was designed to defend Germany, not Europe. So why not build one in the east? Perhaps, as I suggested, from Danzig to Italy?

    However, I entertain your thought of "We're never going to lose this campaign, so screw the wall" idea, and that's my main hypothesis along with the fact that the infrastructure was bad.>>>



    In reply to Ule <<<As mentioned before, I did no intend that Germany should have built a wall of the same scale as the Atlantic wall, but rather the Siegfried line that just defended Germany. And again, as mentioned before, I do believe it would have been possible for Germany to construct a wall between for instance Danzig and Italy.

    This wall would not be much grater then the Siegfried Line, and would not hit the worst infrastructure and terrain in the east.

    Hitlers obsession with fortress cities was actually not a bad idea. The best place to fight a defensive battle is in your own city. However, one could assume (as you do) that this would have weakened Hitlers ambitions of great fortifications, but again I must point to the insanely vast fortifications in the Siegfried Line and the Atlantic wall (and the Gustav Line).

    And yes, the German army was a moving army, but they still did VERY well in static positions, especially with their SS units. But then again, they worked best in cities, so that falls back to the last argument.

    When it comes to manpower, the Germans didn't lack anything. They employed (well that's not a very good term, but what else should I say?) millions of Russian prisoners of war to work for them, and (sorry for using Norway as an example yet another time) in Norway all the fortifications were built by prisoners of war.

    Manpower and distance was not the problem, and mobility was more a perk then a "must have" with the German forces, so why? Why didn't they construct an "Eastern Siegfried Line"?>>>



    In reply to Skot the Sanguine <<<Yes, I know that the Gustav Line was strictly a German effort, but there were still Italians willing to fight for the Germans, so I thought I'd give them some of the "honour".

    Though again, as with all the others, I did not mean that Germany should have built a wall from the Crimea to Leningrad, but rather from Danzig to Italy. More like the Siegfried Line.

    Apart from that, I am agree fully with your arguments in which WW2 saw a more mobile and spearheaded type of warfare compared to earlier conflicts.>>>


    A not to all: I don't think an "Eastern Siegfried Line" would have done any good, I'm just wondering why they didn't build one since they built one against France.

    Thank you all for your replies : )

    Why didn't the Germans construct an Eastern "Siegfried Line"?

    Well, the subject sort of says it all. The Germans constructed a line of defences some distance east of the Maginot Line, called the Siegfried Line, in order to defend the Greater Reich from attacks from the west, however, I can't seem to find any historical mentioning of a similar line of...

    Problem with computer freezing for a couple of seconds. New computer.

    Problem with computer freezing for a couple of seconds. New computer.

    Archonsod 说:
    More likely it's dying.

    Sounds incredibly odd.. But you do know lots of weird stuff, so it might be right.. I just find it very strange. Pro gamers use SSDs to run their operating system and game on (at least the team called EG (Evil Geniuses) do, I know that for sure..). Of course, a team of that calibre can purchase new SSD drives quite often, and are probably sponsored by the people making them, but still.. It sounds weird that they would use something that might break down in the middle of a grand final match..

    Especially with SC2 where a couple of seconds of freezing can mean that you lose the game..

    And I've heard over and over again that it's good to invest in a proper SSD dedicated to my operating system since I already invest loads of money in a new computer.. Sort of "Well, if you're spending 2000 dollars on a computer, why not buy an SSD as well to really max out the performance!"

    The reason for this being that SSDs have a higher transfer rate (right?) then normal HDDs, so the system (and in their case, game) would run faster.

    But again, you know lots of weird stuff, so you're probably right..

    You mentioned that I should check how many bad chips I have, well, how do I do that?

    ---

    Also, I just remembered that my old desktop used to get the exact same problem, and it did not have an SSD.. Although it was pretty old, so I blamed it on that really.. But still, exact same problem.. Numpad light flashing, the lot..

    ---

    Another thing.. I usually keep my computer on constantly, so overheating came to mind. I turned it off and kept it off for about 24 hours, and I just booted it a couple of hours ago. Then, I read what you had said, fired up Skyrim, played for about 2 hours and the computer only froze about 5-8 times.. So it was actually playable..

    But it still froze relatively soon after I started playing (20 minutes maybe), so I guess it helped letting the computer cool down, but it didn't fix the problem.

    ---

    I guess I could try installing an operating system on my other HDD. I think we still get a limited license on win7 64bit from the school.. If we still do that, I'll try that in the near future..
