Comment Re:They're assholes. (Score 1) 336

With how fast my mobile phone connection is (75/40 average 30MS ping on speed test) and the amount of data I have for teathering (40gb/month), it would be an extremely rare instance where both my phone and home connections are out at the same time.

And if that were to happen, I'd probably be out paintballing with friends instead of playing golf. I'm not that old yet.

The point he was making is that they could just be playing on PC. You have a very freedom-minded, open source (if you want it), gaming platform that has a huge library of games to go along with it. Oh, main game servers taken down? Get on something like GameRanger to play online without the official servers. The point, I think you missed it.

Comment Re:Surge pricing during security incident (Score 1) 190

You missed the point he was making. He is saying to let surge price happening automatically under scheduled events (Concerts, sporting events, festivals, etc), where as any other time a massive uptick happens (such as the hostage situation), that it requires manual intervention before activating surge pricing. This wasn't about giving stuff up for free.
