Link, the Hero of Dreams Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 So they’re repealing the repeal. Love it. Aren’t they in the minority, though? ... Or, is there a way to take care of it without a bill? Quote Link to comment

Doc Brown Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Another thing to worry about communication wise: http://www.newsweek.com/russian-forces-could-cause-catastrophe-west-cutting-internet-cables-749047 Source: newsweek Link, the Hero of Dreams and alienboyva 2 Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Saw this pop up in my feed... Wow! Net neutrality my ass!! >_> We all know your against it for the $$$. Glad I don't have Comcast, though my dad does work for them. He does back-end stuff for their internet (programming/maintenance, etc.) Quote Link to comment
Doc Brown Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Yea that's full of crap. Good find. Nothing like the isp's bs-ing. Quote Link to comment
Ridley Prime Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Naturally, the ISP’s will be on their best behavior for awhile to create the illusion that they’re not slimy toads. Comcast particularly has felt the least believable/sincere so far though... Glad I don’t have them either, but it’s really a case of pick your poison now. The Russia and cables thing is definitely more worrisome at the moment. Doc Brown and alienboyva 2 Quote Link to comment

Ridley Prime Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Yeah well, the possible problem with Russian forces is something more out of our hands. At least the net neutrality situation is something we can all fight to some degree, but the other sounds more for the US department of defense or something to handle. /shrug One thing at a time here...

Yea fair point. But it's still very concerning. Hope that the DOD puts a stop to it. But it never hurts that people find out about it. Yep. Just gotta keep applying pressure and hope that the courts can put an end to it. Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) I never realized we had all these data cables under the sea. When you think about it, it makes since, because where else would you put all these? IDK, what Putin is trying prove here, but if he actually does fuck with these cables, it could patiently start a WW III...That is if Kim Jong-un doesn't beat him to it. Just think how ironic that sounds in this day and age...WW III being started, because of the internet. Just goes to show you just how much as a society we rely on the internet. Kinda scary.

I think he's trying to continue to disturb, disrupt and interfere with different countries and what not. Definitely. It's scary to say the least. But to be honest, I'm glad that we're all here going through this bs together. At least there's that. Edited December 16, 2017 by Doc Brown Ridley Prime 1 Quote Link to comment

Edie Napier Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Haven't watched it. Don't intend to. Don't waste your bandwidth. Ignore provocation. alienboyva and Doc Brown 2 Quote Link to comment
Ridley Prime Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Like hell would I watch the thing itself. Can at least entertain any videos of channels I follow about it though to see what they have to say but beyond that... Pai's original video of him dancing like a fool actually got removed for copyright infringement, from what I understand (so I assume the above posted one is just a repost/recapture of that vid). He used Harlem Shake without permission and now the DJ or producer of the music is trying to sue him. Doc Brown and alienboyva 2 Quote Link to comment

Fuzzer1 Posted December 17, 2017 Author Share Posted December 17, 2017 Who thinks that this getting rid of net neutrality was a good idea and that the majority of us here are spewing out fake lies? Anyone? Didnt think so. Quote Link to comment
"Casual Trash" Kirbys Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) The one thing that should be a concern for us right now besides Ajit is people using other people names for commenting on the event. https://twitter.com/BlazeHedgehog/status/942154231934459904?s=09 Edited December 17, 2017 by Kirbymeister2 Doc Brown 1 Quote Link to comment
