  1. Re:The country can't take much more of this ... on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 2, Funny
    Hell, I think he needs to be evacuated from the friggin' planet
    Hopefully to somewhere 1) frequently culled by Wraith 2) where he would be used as slavery by a Goa'uld until he dies or 3) under the oppression of the Ori--oh wait, GWB would probably like the Ori.
  2. Re:Er, guys... on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 2, Funny

    I've had the same thing happen to me. I wonder if it's the same moderator...

  3. Re:Who's gonna buy it now? on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 1

    Brings a whole new meaning to "Where do you want to go today?"
    Or perhaps they could have a BETA Google Stargate Network. (Considering all the troubles the SGC has had with their special dialing program--Red Sky comes to mind--calling it beta wouldn't be too far off...)

    But in seriousness, what I would really want if I were the C?O of a company is Asgard beaming technology--just think of how it would reduce shipping costs. Of course, the terrorists would also want it--it's pretty much the perfect deployment system for a nuclear weapon.

  4. Re:It's obvious why they're *really* doing this on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Glad to be of service. (I'm the submitter. I originally had "But the real question is: What will happen to the SGC?" but Zonk edited it out.)

  5. Re:Stargate on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 1

    No, if we signed a treaty with the Aschen there would be a story about it on Slashdot. Twice.

  6. Re:Doesn't surprise me at all... on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 1

    Probably either incomplete data or an Air Force base with visible things that would be some sort of security risk.

  7. Re:It's obvious why they're *really* doing this on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 3, Informative

    The president in Stargate Canon is Henry Hayes, not George W. Bush, thank Oma.

  8. Re:Title? on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I probably should have added a "Facility" in there... although when the Cheyenne Mountain facility was being built it almost collapsed so it might shut down...

  9. Re:Noooooooo on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 1

    How about the 1980s?

  10. Re:Where will Samantha Carter be posted next? on Cheyenne Mountain Shutting Down · · Score: 4, Funny

    Samantha Carter: Was I naked?(in McKay's hallucination)
    Rodney McKay: Partially.

  11. Zaphod Beeblebrox's Ego on Largest Object in the Universe Discovered · · Score: 1

    Much bigger.

  12. The real problem is that on Possible Hole in Black Holes · · Score: 1

    the Ori will no longer have a power source for their Supergates.

  13. Re:Ha! on Possible Hole in Black Holes · · Score: 1

    Aha! Kinsey is Ted Stevens! (yes, I know he's not part of the International Oversight Advisory, but he still hates the SGC)

  14. Re:complete fabrication on Study Claims Men Play Female Avatars to 'Win' · · Score: 1

    A computer simulation of a girl.

  15. Re:Sounds like on Study Claims Men Play Female Avatars to 'Win' · · Score: 1
    females are stingy and treat males like shit!
    No, because they're actually men trying to get more stuff and ergo are selfish.
  16. Re:Awww...c'mon guys.... on Vista Speech Recognition Goes Awry · · Score: 1

    KAYLEE: I'm not saying the Windows XP's hard to repair, it just ain't worth it.
    OLDER FARMER:It's a fine OS, keep it tuned--
    KAYLEE: ( No way ). [Tsai boo shr] Programs need Administrative access to run.
    MURPHY (re: older farmer): We've been tellin' him buy a Windows Vista for years!
    KAYLEE (overlapping Murphy): Spyware gets admin access, it don't matter how good the programs're runnin'.
    KAYLEE (to Murphy): By the way, the Windows Vista's the same OS. They changed the GUI, hoped no one'd notice!

  17. Informative? on Zango Caught in Lies About MySpace? · · Score: 1

    And I thought I had a tenuous grasp on reality...

  18. Re:Since when did Mum sound anything like Aunt? on Vista Speech Recognition Goes Awry · · Score: 1

    Only if he has a sarcophagus.

  19. Re:Awww...c'mon guys.... on Vista Speech Recognition Goes Awry · · Score: 3, Funny
    Because most high powered sales people are just cocaine snorting asshats that make peoples lives miserable.
    And I think calling them that would be an insult to the cocaine-snorting asshat that makes people's lives miserable community.
  20. Re:Braindead marketing practices on Zango Caught in Lies About MySpace? · · Score: 3, Funny

    Here, put a Stargate on the planet and link it to a black hole.

    Gmail on Firefox. :P

  22. Re:Galaxies sucked... on Fantasy Trumps Sci-Fi For MMOs · · Score: 1

    If Stargate Worlds actually gets released and doesn't get canceled or DNF'd(the latter case is slightly unlikely because CME doesn't have any other games yet) then it will be awesome. If it does everything the devs say it will do, it will reign supreme. And Tabula Rasa also seems interesting from what I've just looked up on it.

  23. Re:I am a GIRL. Therefore... on Can Games Make You Cry? · · Score: 1

    I think that most people would cry if a real big bad guy with a machete bludgeoned them to death...at least, until the "death" part.

  24. Re:I'm not so sure the guns are the issue. on Fantasy Trumps Sci-Fi For MMOs · · Score: 1

    Stargate SG-1. Heck, the name of the team is in the name of the show! And also, there is a Stargate SG-1 MMO in development!

  25. Re:hey now... on Fantasy Trumps Sci-Fi For MMOs · · Score: 1

    You're thinking of Arthur C. Clarke. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
