  1. Re:Welcome to New Zealand's High speed Internet wo on ISPs Experiment With Broadband Download Capping · · Score: 1

    and of course, you have to be in an area in new zealand (ie. wellington or parts of auckland.) where cable is available. sigh. its really dismal, im staying with 56k until conditions improve.

  2. Emotions on The Sound of a Black Hole · · Score: 1

    Maybe the chills and sensations we feel that we assume are ghosts, are the interferance patterns from many blackhole wavefronts?

  3. Pay back! on AOL Blocks Links from LiveJournal · · Score: 1

    If you have a weird sense of humor (like me!) you could try renaming said car photos and uploading a picture of a big, hairy cock with the words "I EAT BANDWIDTH FOR BREAKFAST!" triumphantly displayed underneath it, to the original filename. Instant beatdown!

  4. take him! on New Zealand Looks at Internet Censorship · · Score: 1

    you can HAVE russel crowe!

  5. Re:Never again, anything like it. on NASA Gives Up On Pioneer 10 · · Score: 1

    im not so sure..with the advances in ion propulsion lately, we shold see at least one within 10 or so years.

    and who knows what other space drive technologies will come about in the next 30 years? im not sure if electrogravitic propulsion works in a vacuum, but if it did, that would be a very promising drive system.

  6. too late, we missed our chance. on NASA Gives Up On Pioneer 10 · · Score: 1

    Please, shoot me now before the Hubbard cultists get me!

    our chance has been and gone unfortunately. shouldnt be too long for it to come around again tho, so just sit tight till then. dont worry, we'll contact you.

  7. Its kinda sad... on NASA Gives Up On Pioneer 10 · · Score: 1

    its kinda sad to think how its dying..alone, cold, and its energy slowly fading away..
    rest in peace Pioneer, you sure were.

  8. Re:You are all GAY Fags! on NEAT Comet Crossing: Internet Telescopes · · Score: 0

    isnt that a double negative?

    "you are all gay fags" = "you are all hetrosexuals"

    well spotted young troll!

  9. The LEAST the sun could do... on NEAT Comet Crossing: Internet Telescopes · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...is whip it round a second time so those of us that missed it can see it again! how inconsiderate. now ive missed the window for my ritual suicide and ill have to stay alive for ANOTHER 370 centuries. GOD, this solar system gives me the headaches, oy...

  10. Re:Who are they kidding? on BIOS' Days Are Numbered · · Score: 1

    i still use an isa slot for my modem, simply because it gives better performance. for example, i get a connection speed of 44kbps most days, and while on a battlefield 1942 server, i get pings in the 95's, even on heavily laden servers. this, in a country where modems get 130-250+ pings. and im sure most of them are pci slots. 5-6k/s download speeds make me happy too.

    pci is still good tho - but isa is definately not dead. at least for a few of us.

  12. Re:On Gravity on NASA: Evidence Favors Infinitely Expanding Universe · · Score: 1

    i wish!
    from that, we could derive anti-gravity, contruct devices to harness it, and that would be a huge step in our development. quick and easy trip to mars on a skateboard anyone?
