  1. Re:Hidin' in a cave on New Cave Entrances Seen on Mars · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    seriously mods, can you ban people who post those things? its just spam and since i keep all comments seen on so i can see all viewpoints on certain issues, that also mean that i have to look at that crap. on a more serious note, i thought it was pretty obvious that mars would have caves too but i guess im just not getting the full importance of this, could someone explain it?

  2. Re:Chilling... on Journalist Test Drives The Pain Ray Gun · · Score: 5, Informative

    This reminds me of the neuronic whip in Issac Asmov's foundation series, the pain it produces could kill a person, it had 10 settings 10 being the highest and 1 the lowest. He also used it in many of his other works. The idea is the same, but the implementation is a bit simpler, Who said Sci-Fi never becomes reality? Whoever they are, they lied.

  5. Well from the site... on Satellite Internet for Gaming? · · Score: 1

    Ground Control is now offering the new HN7000 and HN7700 professional grade HughesNet satellite Internet systems that blow the lid off of high-speed performance vs. price when compared to consumer grade service. The "Business 400" service will give you more than T1 speeds down (Up to 2048 Kbps) and upload speeds up to 1024 Kbps. Satellite Internet service is more affordable than ever.

    it looks like it would be usefull to know what pan your getting, or atleast your budget.
