My recommendation for them is that they send all of their money to me :)

No need to hold into worthless paper they cant take with them. In fact, I'll buy it at a rate of 1/100th of its value :D

I hope every single person that is stupid enough and thinks the world is going to end wakes up the following day and just commits suicide.

what a Crock

+1 I love how there have been so many times "the end of the world is coming". Jesus get over yourselves already. We have about as much of a clue about the world ending as a rock does about it's surrounding environment. Idk why everyone is so hung up on the world ending. If it does somehow one day, then sit back and enjoy yourself while you can. Life is like a train and you know what, it's going to hit you. Now you can either run from it in panic until you die, or you can sit back, crack open a beer and watch it come.

But almost all jokes aside, if the end of the world comes, please let it be after the Doctor Who Christmas special! Afterwards, I don't care XD

Damn right! Other wise the end of the world will have me to answer too!!!!

I always find it very comical as well. As after all, we are all going to die anyway. The world ending makes no difference in that regard.

I cant wait for the 22nd , Im seriously going to troll the nut job sites till I'm banned into oblivion.

No doubt the doom sayers will come out with some BS excuse as to why we all are alive and create some other stupid date for our horrific deaths.

Why dont these idiots make up something nice , Like the AOKP unicorn comes down and licks the evil from humanity until we get a visit from a spaceship full of little green android dudes and we all get assimilated into droids (4.2 AOKP obviously)

A man can only dream hahaha :woot:

In America Ron Hubbard, a manufacturer of hi-tech underground survival shelters, has seen his business explode.

Is this a joke? That name is known for something else that I consider wacky as well lol :p

I also spotted this and was surprised that only one person picked up on this! Perhaps we're showing our age, (Not sure how old you are?) but for those that don't know what we are going on about, the person that immediately came to mind was L. Ron Hubbard. He wrote pretty famous books like Battlfield Earth and Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health. He also started that most insidious of "religions" called Scientology!

We can't see it because it will hit us from below, the south pole... and all are telescopes are facing upwards!

It crossed my mind too, but I think he died something on the lines of 20 years ago. Other people here probably realized the same thing. :)

Exactly , I live in London .so what clock are we going by ? I find it rather ironic that they could supposedly predict the future but didn't see the end of the empire they had built coming :laugh:.I just love this theory ,Mind blowing ...wow , just wow !

I have done a lot of research on the subject of 2012 and i have come to a possible conclusion. as many of you know, there are a few different scenarios on what could happen. 3 days of darkness, 2 suns afterwards etc. my belief is that the earth is going to go through the black hole that is expanding at the edge of our solar system and will take three days to get through and when we come out the other side, we will be in a new solar system with 2 suns and different constellations. i know that all of this is hard to believe but its the most rational explanation that i can think of that makes some sense. please can you all consider this as a possibility and let me know your thoughts?

Who is really freaking out about this thing? I work with a lot of people... not one has made reference to this date in a less than laughing and mocking way, friends... same thing. Hell, even at places like the mall and grocery store, not a peep.

Ohhhh yeah, the news outlet are talking about it to drum up business. Carry on.

If Nibiru was going to hit earth on the 21st, dont you think we'd see it in the sky by now?

I'm actually surprised this entire year wasnt filled with panic, tv shows, sensationalistic news and more movies like... well, '2012'.

You must not have turned on the History Channel recently...

Not going to even read the article, people are stupid, and misinterpreting it completely. The Mayan calendar continues well past this year, some of my professors had a seminar disproving this s***. Other than that I'm clueless as to the "facts" people seem to be applying to 12/21. In conclusion - if you believe this ****, you're F'ing retarded and come see me on the 22nd :)

    • Samsung, Amazon extend 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD deal beyond Prime Day 2026

      By seeprime · Posted

      I like to reminisce about the good old days, way back in autumn 2025 when building a gaming machine was fun and the drives were about $150 when you caught a deal. Yes duh, back in the day we had it gone. Then baby Skynet came along, hiding in AI datacenters demanding more processing power until it reached singularity. End of a not totally fictional story.
    • Bypassed Windows 11 shows surprising stability on ancient, completely unsupported hardware

      By +Spark99 · Posted

      My experience in the past with older Windows 11 builds was not great on unsupported machines but I recently used Rufus to put the latest build on a older 5th Gen Core Thinkpad T that we upgraded with a SATA SSD and 8GB of RAM four years ago when hardware was reasonable and it seemed pretty fast and solid. Customer is very happy with the performance and will probably get four more years out of that venerable laptop that he loves so much. Another customer just retired his Dell Studio laptop from 2009 running Windows 10. It got an SSD over 10 years ago and did everything he needed it to for 17 years but he also retired last year and is happy doing everything on his iPad now.
    • Apple's newest AirTag 2 gets first big discount

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Apple's newest AirTag 2 gets first big discount by Taras Buria In late January 2026, Apple introduced its second-generation AirTag trackers, bringing a refresh to the old model that has been on the market for half a decade. Now, you can get these new trackers at an all-time low price, thanks to the first big discount that brought the price down by 17% on Amazon. While the second-generation AirTag looks identical to its predecessor, it packs meaningful upgrades inside. The second-gen ultrawideband chip works 50% farther than the original AirTag, allowing you to detect lost items in a wider range. In addition, the second-generation AirTag features an upgraded Bluetooth chip for extended range and a significantly louder speaker (up to 50%) so that you can hear it better when locating a lost item. Note that the second-gen AirTag only works with iPhones and iPads that run iOS/iPadOS 26 and newer, so you need a compatible device to use the tracker. Like the original AirTag, the AirTag 2 is available in two packs: one and four pieces. Both are now available at a notable discount on Amazon, and you can purchase them using the links below. Apple AirTag 2 tracker - $24 | 17% off on Amazon Apple AirTag 2 tracker (four-pack) - $89 | 10% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S.- specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Tidal won't monetize AI slop music, company says

      By monterxz · Posted

      I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."

      “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing. Besides, where are all the Trump epigones who were stating that the tariffs were going to paid by foreign companies and not the US citizens? …
