If internet service was a free market, it wouldn't exist. All it would take is one douchebag with the right lot to say "fuck no, you can't put that [junction point/wiring box/exchange] on my property" and that's an entire neighborhood possibly off the grid. And most neighborhood have no shortage of those types.
I'm sensing a pro-corporate trend here.
Ya think, DiNozzo?
I'm just surprised we haven't given the bastards jus primae noctis yet.
I wasn't being hypothetical: The FCC has already put forward their "hybrid" approach. I've not read anything that says anyone called bullshit and they backed off it, though.

Everyone will pay more (but for better service)
Were you actually alive back then? "Better service" is not generally a characteristic often associated with Ma Bell.
Did he actually support regulating it as a utility, or did he support that bullshit "hybrid" proposal that essentially leaves us where we are now, so we'll take our fake little cookie and STFU about it.
These kids will grow up and not be offended by foul language, and won't teach their kids to be offended by it either.
So if... nobody is offended by it then how, exactly, does that make it a problem?

Just for clarity, the bogus claims/"research" were vivisected, not the idiot making the video.

I asked a similar question a few weeks back. It seems that FreeBSD's "pkg-ng" still has a few rough edges but is coming along pretty nicely.
It's not proof, but if you look at the Init System general resolution thread on the mailing list, there's a loooong subthread where the logic behind the GR is appropriate under the debian constitution.
I"m sure I'll be doing lots of typing of papers on my phone.
Hey, you never know. November is NaNoWriMo, after all...
I'm starting to ask myself, why does Wu continue to feed the trolls months later?
Because a shitty iPhone game can only keep one relevant for so long, maybe.
If the "SJWs, feminazis and progressives" want to make their own games they can. The market will decide what it wants.
They did. It did. That's what started this whole fucking circus.
Threaten me in a credible way and I will respond
If your definition of "credible" extends to some douchebag on an internet forum, you've got bigger problems then people saying nasty things to you on teh webz.
Yeah, that's what the real bummer of the whole thing is. PM was a godsend before, for just that reason. I'd have been through the roof if this story had been about Palemoon instead of Mozilla making a dev-focused browser.
