    FBI, Apple Deny AntiSec Hack

    Let's not forget that, if the file is pure text, that you would get at least around 100,000 A4 PAGES of text per GB, which translates to over 100,000,000 pages of text per TB - possibly more depending on various factors & differing calculations. Even if it was meant to be 3 GB and not 3 TB, I...

    Titan's "Tropical Lake" Excites Scientists

    Pretty much, yes. It's an old joke that scientists make the acronym first, then figure out what it's going to mean second.

    NASA tried. The project was called 'Constellation,' and would have seen a return to Luna & the start of a colony there, a trip to Mars that would last 3 months if I remember correctly (2 months for the round trip, one month on the planet), and also an eventual landing on an asteroid.

    Unskippable: Spider-Man: Edge of Time

    The real question isn't why the ventilation shaft corkscrews, it's how the HELL did they build all of those buildings in only 17 years?

    Your home town's claim to fame

    My home town, Lynden, was established by Phoebe Judson, who was a well known and well connected pioneer. She was pivotal to the development of the Nooksack Valley, and kept a diary that she later abridged and rewrote into a book describing her time traveling to the west, settling in Washington...

    Dragons Are Coming To Minecraft

    Notch said he was going to add Dragons to Mincraft a YEAR ago. He originally said he was never going to add dragons to Minecraft, but after player pressure and time, he said that he would eventually add dragons - the same dragon-indecision happened with his earlier game Wurm Online. It has...

    Does it bother you at all that we are overpopulating the Earth?

    It definitely worries me. Despite what some people think, the Earth can only handle so many people (according to population experts, that's only ~1-2 billion). With the population expected to reach 10-12 billion by 2050, we will start running out of food & water (especially with all the glaciers...

    what's your IQ score?

    I had my IQ tested twice back when I was 2 & 4 years old, after being diagnosed with Asperger's, and I had a score of 160 both times. It's likely closer to 150 now due to being older, but it's still quite good a good score. :D
