Comment Irrelevant (Score 5, Insightful) 193

"whether social media is "a net benefit to American society" is irrelevant to any discussion of Net Neutrality.

Whether Twitter is biased is irrelevant to any discussion of Net Neutrality.

This is just more deflection. Pai has jumped the shark. Anything he says anymore does nothing to contribute to informed discussion.

Makes me miss Wheeler: he turned out to be far more reasonable than I ever expected and than Pai ever will be.,

Comment I don't care (Score 1) 234

It's broke, as far as I am concerned.
It's like a Mercedes that has no radio/xm/cd/etc..., no a/c, no adjustable seats, no side mirrors, no gps, plastic seat covers, etc...
They optimized for the one feature that didn't matter to me.

>Actually, I think David Kaczynski simply turned in his brother after reading his manifesto and recognizing his brother's writing style...

Actually, David's wife read it, thought it sounded like Ted's rantings, and told David to take a look. He eventually got in contact with the FBI.

The FBI apparently had developed a linguistic profile and amassed tons of evidence. But in this case, it was David and his wife that cracked the case. The FBI had all of that evidence but no suspects.

Comment I want to downgrade (Score 1) 381

I agree with Rei. The "In The News" should be optional; it's a waste of space.
The Local pane on the right has the wrong location and can't be changed. At the moment, there is no way to change what Local really should be.
Setting the Language/Locael should be in settings, not on a menu bar.
And everything on the right side should be optional.

I hope the start revving soon.

Comment The Aristocats! (Score 4, Insightful) 230

> Like "The Aristocats"? Seems eligible to me.

Nope. The thing about the Aristocrats is that every comic does their own version. The arch of the joke and the last line is the only thing each version shares. The details are unique to the comic.
