So after they told this dude he was getting extradited did they say ....

You're not our buddy, guy.
You're not our guy, friend.
You're not our friend, buddy.

etc.
etc.
etc.

Most of the fake science was generated!

Agreed about the duopoly - but that's changing too

5G will be here soon enough and 4g providers are all screaming about their unlimited plans this and that - T Mobile offering all you can eat NetFlix etc.

There is a decent amount of competition out there - and if there isn't enough we can all get on board for de-regulating that space and getting more competition

Comcast know this too - they know they are potentially the next GrandMa Bell

From TFA - "unravels a signature accomplishment of the Obama administration" and from the fact that George Soros is upset - I'm guessing its a double win ;)

Seriously though - what do you think will happen if Comcast decides to fuck with customers Hulu/Netflix/Amazon traffic? or Comcast gets busted fucking with access to websites? Nothing? No market ramifications?

I buy DIA from carriers all the time on behalf of clients - if a carrier even has a whiff of messing with traffic - the first question I will have when the broker hands me the quote is "is this for 'the internet' or whatever it is you call 'the internet'?" - They will get the point REAL fast because they know that DIA is purely a commodity just like utilities and PSTN access

Do you think the market will just say "oh well shucks golly, I guess we cant get what we want ..." - no! The market will punish them ... and they know it

Also - The Obama rules were in place since 2015 - so was the internet seriously fucked up before 2015?

Please help me remember those dystopian pre-2015 horror-show days because nothing jumps to mind at the moment

Use a bank that will text you everytime the card gets used. As soon as you see an unauthorized charge, call the bank and cancel the card. They typically cancek the fraud charges out and send you a new card. Best security is simple information

When the stoners get the munchies at midnight and they want to score some Taco Bell or Dominos - who are the working idiot chumps that will be serving them?

I want to check out their website http://www.rightscorp.com/ and it's not loading.

I keep clicking refresh over and over and over and its still not loading .....

Hmmmmmm I wonder why?

One of the all time WORST network chip makers in the world. I wish they would just go away all together.

How about the crappy motherboard NICs and crappy drivers that go with it?

They update their drivers almost on a daily basis.

They cause more PC and server networking nightmares than I can count.

Server acting up? Step 1 is ALWAYS update the shitty Broadcom drivers. But even that doesn't always work.

Sorry but you misunderstand me - my bad

Humor is probably the only weapon we have at this point and I understand that.

I've seen two people I love die this way and its probably the worst possible way to go. The brain is the last thing to go and its aware as the body dies around it. It's horrifying to see. With cancer at least the victim can put up a fight until the end - with this there is no fight.

God bless you and your Uncle.

You obviously have never seen this disease kill anyone you know and I hope you never will.

If you had, you would know that cheap lame jokes may not be the best thing for your non-
Slashdot/real-life Karma.

With that being said - go fuck yourself anyway.

I had no interest in this stupid movie, but now I will check TPB and torrent the damn thing just on principle

Fall On Me
Song by R.E.M.

There's a problem, feathers, iron
Bargain buildings, weights and pulleys
Feathers hit the ground
Before the weight can leave the air

Buy the sky and sell the sky
And tell the sky, and tell the sky
Fall on me (what is it up in the air for)
Fall on me (if it's there for long)
Fall on me (it's over, it's over me)

There's the progress
We have found a way to talk around the problem
Building towers
Foresight isn't anything at all

Buy the sky and sell the sky
And bleed the sky and tell the sky
Fall on me (what is it up in the air for)
Fall on me (if it's there for long)
Fall on me (it's over, it's over me)
Fall on me
(Well I would keep it above but then it wouldn't be sky any more)
(So if I send it to you you've got to promise to keep it home)

... now I have to microwave my arm?

... but I admit its all nostalgia

I cant think of how many times I thought "I will just go to Radio Shack and get that cable/adapter/thingy I need"

Now I just use Amazon prime like everyone else or a dozen others. Their prices always sucked because they knew they were the only choice you had.

It used to be the coolest store at the mall. Realistic audio gear, CB radios and all things cool and very geeky.

I'll miss you Radio Shack. It was a good run. You just couldn't stay relavent long enough. R. I. P.
