What is Siliconhell about?

Quizzes, and thought-provoking questions. Sprinkled with humour and a light dusting of cynicism. 

Who is Siliconhell?

Just a couple of people who like quizzes and cats. We couldn’t find any decent quizzes so decided to create our own.

A couple of our team have physical disabilities or mental health issues. They have embraced technology allowing them to communicate with others beyond the confines of their conditions. By sharing that knowledge we can enable others to do similar.

We don’t make any profit from this website. In fact, it costs us money to keep the site running. If you wish to donate spare gold or money feel free to contact us

Our aim is to reach out to others with similar interests. Hopefully, have a few giggles along the way.

These are the Red Dwarf episodes that reference Silicon Hell

“Gunmen of the Apocalypse” (1993), the simulant captain’s (Denis Lill) last words are, “See you in Silicon Hell!” as his ship is destroyed around him.

“Rimmerworld” (1993) when preparing to board the wreckage of the aforementioned simulant ship for supplies, Lister says, “Let’s hope the crew are rotting in Silicon Hell along with all the photocopiers.”

“Out of Time” (1993), when the crew believes that Lister is a mechanoid because of an unreality pocket, Kryten pushes Lister to work with the threat of wallowing in “the eternal fires of Silicon Hell.”

“Krysis”, Kryten mentions that appliances that are pledged to the “wrong manufacturer” aren’t allowed into Silicon Heaven, and believes that it’s “so unfair that all the BlackBerries burn in Silicon Hell”.,
