  1. The networks are paid for already. on Net Neutrality Debate Crosses the Atlantic · · Score: 2, Informative

    This is a simple matter of greed.

    AT&T is more greedy than a beta wolf.
    This so-called "net neutrality" is bad business.
    it's nothing but greed. There is no other way to describe it. Unless you like "double-dipping"
    These few network owners want to charge a premium for allowing commercial traffic on "their" networks.
    Everyone pays a subscription fee for accessing the internet. They pay based upon how much bandwidth or throughput they use.
    Network owners have peering agreements to share network access. These peering agreements are all based in the same facility and some times in the same room.

    Net Neutrality: treating every packet as equal.

    What they want: denying or delaying packets whose owners don't pay the ransom.

  2. everyone make a complaint about their own website. on Federal Anti-Obscenity Program Comes Up Limp · · Score: 1

    http://obscenitycrimes.org/

    submit a complaint about that particular website.

    direct quote from that website: "It is the job of law enforcement agents to police the Internet."

    I find that obscene.

  3. who are these people? on Federal Anti-Obscenity Program Comes Up Limp · · Score: 1

    we know they're not the wasps descended from the original puritans. Those wasps love their booze and raunchy sex.

    we know they're not traditional catholics. They can be forgiven for cornholing that lady they barely knew.

    we know they're not the black folks. They can just sing out the sin in church.

    nope, none of those regular religious folks are responsible for this.

    It's the snake bite christians. The people that believe if they pray enough to god, that the copperhead they're passing around their "church" won't kill them.
    This type of "christianity" has been slowly spreading throughout the bible belt and into our metro areas. They are now mega churches.
    They preach old testament garbage and slap the name jesus on top. They are not christians at all.
    They are ignoring the teachings of jesus on a whole. Blessed are the poor and the sick. These people are elitist scumbags.

    This morality in media organization wouldn't know morality if they stepped in it. They only know how to discriminate and persecute. They are filled with fear and hatred.
    Any man who exerts his will on others is not fit to be called a man. For he is the one crippled by fear. He is the one who needs guidance the most.

    This means that 99% of these christian preachers are just complete frauds. They only preach because they're trying to hide their own skeletons.

  4. Re:Good for them on DirectX 10 Hardware Is Now Obsolete · · Score: 1

    gamers don't really have any power on this one.

    the developers and hardware fabs have the real problem.

    They won't take too kindly to this one.

  6. South Florida schools are the worst on Discouraging Students from Taking Math · · Score: 1

    the schools here drop large portions of the test scores to fudge the paperwork.

    Damn my parents for teaching me ethics. They really get in the way of my success.

    Stop posting this shit.

  13. this discrimination will be decided in court on Charging the Unhealthy More For Insurance · · Score: 1

    My blood pressure is 120/80.

    I don't smoke.
    I exercise 3 times a week at a gym. (cardio and strength)

    Charging me more is just plain unethical.

    I already pay more for my clothes.
    This is tantamount to a "fat tax".

    How can your employer get access to your medical records?
    Don't they know that everyone is different? These "standards" may not fit every person.

    Charge the smokers more.

  14. why hasn't a judge censured the RIAA for this? on Oklahoma Security Expert Attacks RIAA Claims · · Score: 3, Insightful

    So why the need for an upgrade?
