Comment So now I can show up 45 minutes after showtime? (Score 1) 233

This is one of the reasons I don't go to the theater. I'm already paying for concessions and my ticket. I don't need to be bombarded by advertisements. It's also the reason I dropped cable tv. Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime are more than enough. Now I get to save 2 hours of time and $60+

I had a guy that worked for me that has a felony. He was in AZ when it was a zero tolerance and they found a seed. One frickin seed in his glove box. He didn't have any pot, or paraphernalia in his car. There was nothing wrong with his car. They pulled him over because he had long hair. So before you blanket statement convicts / felons. Think about why the majority of them are in prison. Because it's a for profit system, they make up reasons to put people there.

Uh...bullshit. In alot of states it is illegal for municipalities to compete with the telecom and cable companies. It's also illegal for more than one cable company to have service in a territory. Why? Because it would be unfair. Same reason Tesla can't have a showroom in Texas you have to drive to another state to look at a Tesla.

Which wiping all data doesn't matter since everything is in the cloud. I work in IT for a school district and I powerwash and swap chromebooks for students all day long. They log in. BAM! everythings there. I have a couple of students who managed to install ubuntu and then steam on a chromebook. Playing steam games at 2-3 fps is fun.

Longer than 20 years. Since Reagan, we were signing peace treaties while arming Afghanistan against the Russians. We were arming and training death squads in El Salvador starting in 1980, then we used the contra guerillas to attack the sandinistas. We've been sticking our nose where it doesn't belong for a long time. It's all about the $$$.
