  • Whats the safest lighter there is?

    I go paintballing outdoors in forests and fields and a lighter would be good to have, but i dont want to worry about it going off in my pocket. Id like one that has a lid AND locks closed. Im not completely comfortable with just a standard zippo lighter because i still feel it could open in my pocket and i could just lay down on the button. Suggestions?

  • Internet speed problems on a newly built computer?

    My friend just had a $1000 computer built for him and it performs flawless and has very high quality internals, however its wireless internet is extremely slow. It uses a $40 wireless internet card a computer shop employee recommended (AKA nothing crappy. I have no idea specifically what type, brand, ect.), says it has 85% signal strength, 400mb/second download speed, and the only other thing connected to my friend's locked wifi source is his laptop, which runs fine on the wifi, so basically, everything should be right here. It defiantly does not have any viruses, and again has great internals and a standard functioning router. Whats the problem?

  • To become a navy SEAL?

    ive been arguing with my friends over this, so i want to settle. this. my friend believes that after about 4 years in the naval academy, you have the option to train and become a navy SEAL. i do not believe this is all there is too it, because to qualify to join marine recon, you must serve as a marine first, and the same to be a ranger you must have experience in the field as an army private. from start to finish, what must be done to become a navy SEAL? im almost certain actual combat experience is needed, not just training alone.
