yup, fix a few people now and let everyone starve later.. let's just set off the nukes now, why wait? Eliminating poverty is not within our grasp for a myriad of reasons. Some governments don't want to end poverty, some people with money need poor people to do work that they don't want to do. Poverty won't end because you throw money at it. The Human race is barrelling towards an extinction event. Maybe going to space doesn't fix that, but maybe it does, maybe only the rich can afford to go, but maybe being rich in space with limited resources is not being rich anymore. Give me a cabin in Antartica no matter how much money I have and I'm equal to anyone on the planet rich or poor. In space all that matters is surviving. I can promise you, we won't survive here. We are killing ourselves, literally killing ourselves.

Comment Re:To those that read the bill (Score 1) 144

the FCC didn't write a sloppy bill.. in fact they didn't write a bill at all. They just added ISP's to the already in effect tittle 2 communications rules. The very reason that the FCC was created to deal with. Title 2 just means that it's a public communications line and that no special conditions can be created to block or hinder access and that all rates must be reasonable and across the board. Everyone get's the same access to communications lines. They can charge as much as they want as long as they charge everyone the same rates for the same access within a given area.

Hey Ivan.. is winter ended over there yet?

This is a constant tactic of Russia.. "we didn't do anything?", "those aren't our soldiers in Ukraine", "we didn't move the border in Georgia to expand our territory"," how could a few scientifically targeted propaganda lies effect public opinion"

.. really, we are on to you. Get off it already.

Obama met with Louis Farrakhan in 2005. Hell, George Bush Jr. met with Taliban leaders in 1997 during their visit to Texas and Unical. But Neither of those presidents actually tried to justify or minimize their threat during their presidency. What Trump did was to legitimize nazis by saying that they aren't any worse than anyone else. I don't know if you know about history, but they have been historically very evil. If you support nazis you might as well call yourself one.

Louis Farrakhan? Seriously, that is your rebuttal of Trump saying that "being a nazi and fighting against them is the same thing"?? Look, if you live in a desert and believe that cutting off heads is a cool thing to do then to hell with you and your beliefs.. if you believe that some people should have more rights based on your race than to hell with you too.. I put you in the same category. So if you believe that Nazi's and those who fight against them are the same.. screw you.

Android, os open source. There is actually a large community of people that work hard to create their own works of art within Android, as a part of android not as slaves to Apple. If you wanted you could create and build your own Android phone OS from source code and modify it any way you want. A tattoo is part of your description of yourself.. if you have an apple tattoo you are just describing what you follow not what you create and that is a big difference.

The price of guava juice in Brazil is what you say?

I can't get what you are saying, are you defending the right of ISP's to censor content?

I don't care about what companies may or may not do in the past or in the future, I care about what is happening now. If I can I'll try to protect my rights for future use but this thread is about my rights online and bringing up that the companies now trying to protect my right online may have future intent is irrelevant and seems like an attempt to obfuscate the subject we are concerned with now.

Comment Re:Going after attacks at origin is risky... (Score 4, Informative) 126

This is an honest statement and an intelligent one. Look, direct retaliation in the form of "you are a poo head too" isn't always the best action to take. Russia is not the best place for this kind of retaliatory strike anyway, they are too much in control of who has access to government via gunning down opponents in the street. An appropriate response may involve many things, like sanctions and UN, and ally pressure to get them to back off. Direct retaliation would be stupid. You are trying to make it sound like he said that he did not agree with any retaliation, which is not true.
