  1. The events of the 2000 film Red Planet take place from 2056 to 2057.
  2. 2057 - This year will see the very rare occurrence of two total solar eclipses in a single calendar year (on January 3 and December 26). The last time this occurred was 1889. The next time it will occur is 2252. (Eclipse predictions by Fred Espenak, NASA/GSFC.) A METI message Cosmic Call 1 sent from the 70-meter Eupatoria Planetary Radar arrives at its destination, 15 Sge star. A METI message, called the Teen Age Message, sent from the 70-meter Eupatoria Planetary Radar arrives at its destination, HD 76151 star. A METI message, called the Teen Age Message, sent from the 70-meter Eupatoria Planetary Radar arrives at its destination, 37 Gem star. The world's oil supply is officially depleted. (something we all know is total bullshit) In 2007, a documentary series aired on the Discovery Channel that portrayed the technology, lifestyle, and state of the world in 2057. The events of the 2000 film Red Planet take place from 2056 to 2057.
  3. More computer fans...
  4. *remembers female stripper outfit on my male character, and shudders* lol
  5. The ones I want secured, I keep in my head, the rest I let Firefox remember for me.
  6. shok@btgbullseye
  7. Yeah, I use BitLocker for my external, just to keep someone from having an easy time accessing it if they grab-and-run, but otherwise I have no use for drive encryption outside of my Linux box. (I do encryption on every partition [full custom partitioning] during install of the OS)
  8. I got nothing... Again. Just rebooted my PC, that's why.
  9. Especially that nuclear part... We've had the tech to make reactors that can't go critical since the early 80's. (and every reactor in the country got retrofitted with it before 1990)
  10. rhubarb@btgbullseye
  11. Computer fans.
  12. Super 77 vs 90? Everyone says 90, then uses 77 and complains.
  13. Star Trek Online... Leveling up one of my characters, and making money with the others.
  14. Actually, quite common... There was a statistic I heard from a couple different psychologists that said that almost everyone at some point desires to be the opposite sex, just to know what it's like.
  15. So far as I've been able to tell, every business is a misspending nightmare... (excluding some small businesses)
  16. I got nothing...
  17. Agreed, except I don't consider the characters I make to be "hot"... (I make the character to look as close to my ideal self as I can)
  18. Watch Dogs. Very similar to Sleeping Dogs, but with a tad bit of pre-Deus Ex Human Revolution thrown in.
  19. Awesome, thanks.
  20. 2053 - The United States of America's armed forces are presumed to phase out the entire M1 Abrams fleet from service. By this time, the M1 Abrams will have seen 71 years of service with the U.S. Army and USMC. It will be presumably replaced by Main battle tanks or weapons systems resulting from either the GCV (Ground combat vehicle) program, or cancelled FCS (Future combat systems) program. 2053 sees the end of World War III, as given in Star Trek: First Contact. This was originally presumed to be the starting date for the War, but that was given as 2026 in the Star Trek: Enterprise two parter, "In a Mirror, Darkly". The currently given end year clouds logic over how in 2079, there is a postatomic horror directly attributed to the aftermath of World War Three (TNG episode "Encounter at Farpoint").
  21. Nothing.... Blissful nothing.
  22. Just getting back online after Comcast dropped the internet here for 2 hours.
  23. 2051 - A METI message Cosmic Call 1 sent from the 70-meter Eupatoria Planetary Radar arrives at its destination, Gliese 777 star. The Washington State Ferries time capsule will be opened, celebrating WSF's 100th Anniversary. Over 1.7 million people in the United Kingdom will be suffering from dementia according to reports published in 2007 by the London School of Economics and Institute of Psychiatry.
  24. BigDog is a dynamically stable quadruped robot created in 2005 by Boston Dynamics with Foster-Miller, the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and the Harvard University Concord Field Station. I haven't copied anything new it seems...
  25. I agree.
