What 'developing country' did you live in where you only got 300 baud? I was at 9600 in 1991 at the latest. Initial slack release was '93. Heck, by then I may have been at 14.4.
No problem with the DVDs. I've since had about six other DVD players, running in price from $19 to $300. All of them let the text based CC pass through to my NTSC tv just fine.
I saw no reason to try their products for the past decade. Given that they are a mere copier of other manufacturers, I see no reason to try their current products.
Two hours after posting, 100+ messages, and your post is the only sign of this fact. Sadly, it will get buried amidst the other posts whining about things that are not true.
I've been boycotting them since the late 90's. I bought a DVD player from them. Rather than passing through captioning information, it munged it so that it could only be displayed with their craptastic system. The font was small and had no background box, making it unreadable in many scenes and useless for my then fiance. When contacted about it, I got a brushoff. Nobody wanted to listen to the problems. Except Best Buy, who cheerfully refunded me my money.
Lincoln won a war against some slaveholders. Speaking as a lifelong Maryland resident, I can say with certainty that slavery was alive and well following Lincoln's death. The next issue is Lincoln's suspension of habeus corpus.
But I suspect that the GP meant the tired old 'states' rights' argument that was so popular with stalwarts like Strom Thurmond and George Wallace.
I think you mean 529's, not 538's. 538 is the title of Nate Silver's blog.
NC has a pretty decent black population, and the tri-cities area has a lot of young, urban SWPL types, many northern transplants looking for biotech work.
Who are you and what have you done with the real cpu6502? This is at least the third or fourth time this month you have made a lucid, accurate comment.

Name one time in the history of the internet where demand for bandwidth has slowed?
About five minutes after I started streaming this video about three ladies whose pizza delivery just showed up.
It's because of users like you and the GP that Apple decided to make a walled garden.

Actually the study determined that the most common type of mating was Denisovan males with human females.
The GP didn't say anything about genders. Anyone who has been around women know that they like to get freaky.

You're woefully misinformed.
What does iTunes have to do with OSX? It plays mp3s (and aacs and a bunch of other stuff). What is this 'delivery vehicle' of which you speak?
On what alternative plane of reality is OSX affordable?
First world countries. They're awesome places to live. You should try it.
Close, except that the rabbit's name is Harvey.
And they inspire touching songs.
Do you know how hard it is to find a piper with that level of skill these days?
What, the inspected rat will be forced to confess under the threat of being bitten to death by a pack of Winston Smiths?
I think that's the "in Soviet Union" version.
Err, Eurasia, rather.
Several lawsuits of this exact type have been filed.

Let me guess, you own an iPhone, and jerk off on your sense of superiority over others because of your phone?
TBH, my sense of superiority is a pretty sexy and well endowed beast.

In going for the cheap joke, I let reality get in the way. Oh well.
FWIW, if you include iOS devices (which I was also thinking of) the percentages start to look pretty bad.
Some minor tweaking and it's an SD card icon, all good.
Just as useless to a Mac owner as a stack of punchcards.
Nah, Saul seems to know his shit. I think it was the guy filling the safe deposit box for Mike grandaughter.

Oh, there you go. Back to nuttery.
Most of the people in this group are well above average intelligence[...]
Let's not kid ourselves here. /. will not even let you log in if your IQ is above 65.
You forgot to tick the 'post anonymously' box.
