This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Isn't there also a Skynet satellite company? They're British if I recall correctly.

John Connor works for my company. He has no sense of humor about it.

Sounds like he’s already been replaced by a terminator.
