    How to get rid of a Black Hole.

    I can't believe that no-one's said this. Just punt the damn thing away. Figure out it's mass, and speed, find something bigger or quicker, introduce. Boom, now it's going backwards. Black holes don't just ignore Newton's laws. Alternatively, a similar trick at an angle, divert it up or down the...

    Question for anti-gun:

    Once again, yes I do think that the police should have handled that, but only because if guns were actually controlled, the 16 year old would have never been able to do this, which I'm sure you'll agree is a good thing. Again, I don't want to get rid of all guns, just stop selling them to any...

    Question for anti-gun:

    And here you have, quite accidentally, swung a strong blow for increased gun control, that man was a, and I cannot stress this enough, convicted criminal, who just went out and bought a gun to shoot someone with. Would he have done so without the ability to buy a gun, no questions asked...

    Veganism...why?

    There's been some confusion in this thread as to two different terms; Sentience and sapience. Sentience is when an animal is aware of it's surroundings, capable of understanding whether they are beneficial or not, and making a choice accordingly. In this way a worm is sentient, because it...

    Nuclear Energy?

    I would like to point out here, considering two people have brought it up, that nuclear waste disposal sites are not really that dangerous. Yes, they are radioactive, and yes, you shouldn't build a town on one, but they aren't likely to explode or anything. The main danger is just in...

    Unrealistic Conflicts

    That always bugged me. They were a mining ship, either they had enough explosives to blow the crap out of a mountain (which makes their strapped together crap useless) or a laser. Now I live near a quarry, those explosions you can hear from miles away. They are no bigger than your fist. Imagine...

    Opinion on Halo Reach?

    It's technically having hands on hips arms bent. But that's too much Wikipedia talking.

    Ubisoft DRM Authentication Servers Go Down

    "Hey Bob the servers went down." "That'll teach those darn pirates." "You mean the ones who don't have to put up with this shit? The ones who cracked it? Leaving only paying customers feeling pissed off?" "Yes. That'll teach them!"

    Religion in Video Games

    There's nothing wrong with some chanting monks or praying dudes. If I get to kill them. Teehee.

    Valve Talks TF2 Engineer Update Failures

    One idea I've just had (which may be bad and ruin the game but, meh) is a sort of laser sighter for your sentry, giving it slightly increased damage and also letting it shoot otherwise out of range targets. But that isn't the best bit. You see, when you tag a target that just so happens to be a...

    Ubisoft Denies Launch Day Crack for Silent Hunter 5 DRM

    The tighter your DRM grasps, the more customers will slip through your fingers, Ubisoft.
