Maybe even some wool socks if they're really pushing things.

You're absolutely right. "YOU" are entitled. So entitled in fact that you feel entitled to force people to waste hours of actual working time sitting in a room satisfying a completely worthless corporate-culture convention whose only appreciable function is to allow middle management to spout buzzwords for a few hours. And of course YOUR time is so important than even people who don't need to be, and SHOULDN'T be there, cannot do ANYTHING but sit raptly in attention to your pure gospel.

And if he ever decides to short-sell his own company?

Because it's completely unheard of for multiple companies to have headquarters in the same massive building...

Some of us like 100+hz because the refresh rate allows a faster screen redraw and prevents headaches.

First off you're so wrong it hurts. Until very recently graphical framerates in the average FPS were relatively insulated from "physics framerates", in the days of TFC for example 100fps didn't make your rockets any more accurate because the SERVER calculated its trajectory.

Secondly it's been proven time and time again that humans are perfectly capable of detecting framerates well into the hundreds. Fighter pilots can not only detect a SINGLE frame from somewhere around 1/200th of a second but even tell you what enemy jet it was. Gamers are similar, until consolization forced a lower standard onto everyone and covered it up with a lower FOV filled with massive amounts of bloom and blur performance was judged by the gold standard of a solid 60fps minimum, 30 was choppy and 100 was idea.

Actually it's not, what you're demanding IS Somalia. It's not a facetious argument just because it happens to be inconvenient for your already-tried-and-failed ideology.

So you want how many companies digging up your lawn to lay their own cable? You're fine without building codes? We tried it your way before, in fact we tried things your way right up until the Guilded Age.

I think I'm going to start including "statist" in my list of phrases that automatically signify a wingnut, right up there next to ZOG and Chemtrails.

Where's the competition in the ISP or Cellphone market then? Oh, right, it doesn't exist because of BARRIERS TO ENTRY.

you mean like Citizens United? The SCotUS is going to decide 5-4 in favor of utterly destroying the 4th amendment, just like they have every other time a 4th amendment issue has come up. The problem is Scalia and Thomas, they're taking phenomenal quantities of money, gifts, and bribes from the Koch Brothers to shit all over the bill of rights.

1080p took off for the same reason macs did, marketing. 1900x1200 was starting to be common when everything suddenly got yanked back to 1080 because it was cheaper and marketing bullshit convinced people to pay more money for less monitor.

I doubt they even care that much. All they really want to do is just charge people more than they do now for less service than they currently offer, and this gives them an excuse.

Just look at how utterly exorbitant mobile data costs are.

And you think virtually every scientist, in every university and lab, in every country is in on this massive world-spanning conspiracy... EXCEPT for the ones that also just so happen to be getting a lot of money from american right-wing thinktanks and big oil.

Your problem isn't with the science, it's with the deliberately disingenuous reporting on said science.

More or less the entire scientific community of the planet has been in a consensus about this for most of the last decade or two and our government still does not give a fuck. Iowa is not going to accomplish by itself what the whole freaking world didn't all together. The only way we'll ever start making progress on climate change is if somebody finds a way to outspend big oil, the car manufacturers, and every other petro-lobby.
