Comment Hate Disney all you want.... but... (Score 1) 116

What happened to Winnie the Pooh (Blood and Bone gory horror movie) should not happen to an innocent cultural icon, regardless who owns it.

I'd say the same thing about Woody Woodpecker, Snoopy, Mighty Mouse, Tom/Jerry, etc.... Disney fucked up by not begging, pleading, bribing for an extension. Then again, they do have a LOT of animosity running against them, so maybe they didn't think it would go anywhere.

There's a difference between supporting it and EOL'ing it. If it's a game we paid for, at the same cost as the windows users, it's totally reasonable to expect the mac version to run as long as the windows version of the exact same game. (Team Fortress 2 in my case)

I understand there are back-end development costs, but from a USER standpoint, this is the same as a dealership saying they could no longer work on a red car but the blue ones of the same year and model (the same game) can still be maintained.

If they could tolerate views opposite theirs and not penalize them with "the algorithm". I'm sick of people just barely right of center having to self-censor everything they say and use cutesy synonyms or alter the pronunciations of words just to avoid demonetization when talking about current events.

Comment Re:att fiber has an lower price then old DSL / VDS (Score 1) 75

Now THIS is where the FCC maybe should stop in and do the subsidies if necessary. If DSL was the only option and they're shutting it down and not putting in fiber to replace it, the wireless bandwidth caps should be regulated to where they have similar prices and limitations as their previous plans.
