No idiots in the US would rather give internet, phone, and cable companies local monopolies for what ever reason that kills competition.
Currently I live in Tampa where we have excellent internet service where you can get it. Unfortunately HOAs, apartment complexes, and some counties have implemented deals that give only 1 service provide access to customers. In those places you can get service that is so so for way to high of a price..
Luckily I live in none of those places. On a lark just called up Frontier. My $75 a month no contract service for 75/75Mbit speeds is now $65 a month for 100/100Mbit speeds.
I feel your pain though seems in a lot of places they do nothing but gouge.
Want to revise your statement? Brown got the budget balance, but only after seeing pretty large bumps in taxes, not cutting spending, now that is slipping away from him.
Reagan Democrat. I'll give you that. Leave people alone is my motto. Socially liberal, economically conservative is close enough.
Hillary is neither of those things. Socially she was lurched back and forth between homosexuals are deviates and blacks are animals to the we must accept and care from both (politician=liar/bullshit artist.)
Putin does need to be checked, but another 4-8 years of Bush/Obama. (Hillary is closer to Bush than Obama) No thanks. If we get into another war, they need to be public, declared, and most importantly violent and brief. We don't need another 4-8 years of Obama/Bush incompetence.
You live in California and voted for Hillary and voted for Jerry Brown and claim to be a conservative........................best troll ever.
Seriously I don't think there is a medical condition that could reach those levels of mental defect, though the Liberal world has been applying all their resources in attempt to discover it.
Huh? This is no difference a decade or two ago with most people with PCs using them with services like AOL. They didn't us the "open" hardware or software, they just used what ever locked down crap peddled to them by the gatekeepers. Same goes for 99% of Apple users.
The only difference now is they use a smartphone or a laptop rather than a desktop.
The difference now is you can buy a computer for a few hundred dollars, even less if you just need hardware connected to the internet, along with a firehose of an internet connection, and can pretty much do what ever you want. That is as open as it gets.
The real heart of the matter is that most people could give a flip less about coding up their own solutions, any more than they are willing to change the oil on their car. They never will. The minority that is willing to do that will be the ones selling them solutions.
I think I will stick with my first comment. You as an IT guy voted for Hillary. Knowing what you know and knowing what the Democrats did, we are not talking about the immoral or illegal or just plain ruthless things they did, but the simple fact that she ran her email the way she did, and how half her staff easily got phished, and you still thought it a great idea to vote for her.......
Wow.....you must....wow just wow. I weep for what ever company you provide IT support for. Do you work for the DNC?
Cool, but Amazon is simply cannibalizing the retail sector. That 100,000 jobs probably represents 1/3 (or more) of the total retail sector jobs that will be lost as Amazon pushes out less efficient players in the market. I'm all for it, I love Amazon, but let's not fool ourselves into thinking this is something that is going to be happy for the "fight for $15" crowd in the country. (They will be unemployed).
You are insinuating that space money would be best spent on "important" things like social programs (NASA budget $17 Billion, US federal social spending $2,300 Billion), you would be wrong.
Besides socialism only works if we have unlimited resources. There are unlimited resources, but they are in space. All we have to do is go get them.
On a plus side for those people who would "benefit" people who are productive members of society, that have a work ethic, intelligence, and curiosity, will finally have way to ditch all you socialist leaches once and for all. They will leave you behind to starve.
There are plenty of other places that would be much more appropriate for solar panels without the extra cost.
Sidewalks would be much easier to do. Roofs of any modern buildings. South facing walls of said buildings. Carports for cars on public and private property. Covered walk ways. Utility poles that already have power lines strung on them.
This is a company chasing government dollars, not one with a viable product.
Congress shall make no law......instead make a bunch of regulations that make corporations liable or put financial pressure on them for the expressions of free speech of others and get what they want by proxy.
Old movie quote "I didn't lie when said I wouldn't kill you." turns to one of his henchmen "Kill him for me".
I'm looking forward to the day were private car ownership is illegal so anyone going against social norms/laws can quietly and calmly driven to the nearest Soylent Green factory for "re-education" by their fully autonomous Uber ride.
Propaganda, insider information, hate facts. Who cares. More power to the Russians if they can disrupt a bunch of corrupt people from getting their way (DNC). I'd love for them to start poking at the Republicans next.
Sun light sanitizes all things. Keep dragging the truth from all the dark holes it is hiding in.
Well part of that is the problem with those sources. Unless you aggress with them watching those sources is highly annoying even on the rare occasion when they are accurate and honest in their reporting.
Fox and Hannity and the rest have their own issues which is why on the people on the other side ignore them as well.
Frankly I find anyone that uses only the mainstream anything as their sources, left or right, to very low information and not very interesting to talk to.
I started out as a younger man on CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS as well as various newspapers and magazines and the moved towards Fox etc and more world based news sources/magazines after college. I've left them behind and found plenty of voices on youtube. When they get a little out there or agenda driven or just too repetitive (no new info) I dump them and move on.
There is only one form of narrow minding agenda driven news/opinions that I agree with: Those that push for freedom and liberty. Sorry but people wanting to squash gun rights or free speech or liberty in general, I find they have nothing interesting to say. I'm pretty sure a lot of people feel that way. I think that has a great deal to do with people shunning various outlets and defriending/blocking people. Those pushed to the outside are crying fowl now, but that is only because they used to be able to get away with it and did so to their advantage for most of modern history. The new reality is that the game is up, we are on to you and we can finally drive you from our village, even if it only a virtual one.
The first is I come to the internet to either troll or to learn (sometimes both it , but that is usually not my intent.
really depends on how much alcohol I've consumed). I don't usually try to convince. Sure I a may be arguing points with you, but really all I'm doing is sharping my knowledge and arguing skills with the various fuckwits you find online that socially mean nothing to me. I may accidently point a few lost lamb in the direction of the light.
The second part is to take those skills and knowledge (as weak as they may be) and talk to people I know in the real world. If I convince 1 or 2 people a year on a particular topic I feel pretty successful. The lighter touch of a conversation over beers is usually for more successful than posts online. Most people already know what they know and aren't interested in "new" facts so you don't usually get many converts.
I know that is you Mrs Delarco (my 7th grade English teacher). I told you to leave me alone. Stop following me around on the interwebs pointing out my spelling and grammatical errors.
Get it? Bern. As in Bernie Sanders. Oh that's right he lost, and then Hillary lost, but not for lack of cheating....er I mean trying.
Can we kick her, along with anyone who committed voter fraud on her behalf, out of the country if the recount comes up with her still loosing?
A few million illegal immigrants can stay in their place if they go. (If they don't go it means they hate all Mexicans.)

I think what you meant to say is: "As a moderately retarded person, I voted for Hillary"

I've already been kicking around the idea of a custom refrigerator built into my cabinets.
Starting this year I will not be buying anything made by LG!!!!
Also scientists also confirmed the sky is blue and water is wet.
Stay tuned and we'll bring you more breaking stories at the top of the hour.

Video games and beer.
Ok lets start funding it by cutting the lifetime "retirement" checks of the President and Congress
Step 1: Step in front of car.
Step 2: Box the car in and then hook up to tow truck
Step 3: Profit!
Congress shall make no law......instead make a bunch of regulations that make corporations liable or put financial pressure on them for the expressions of free speech of others and get what they want by proxy.

It means "not a crybaby asshole" in most social circles.
Mine is set off from too much alcohol and idiot fucktards on the internet.

I have two strategies on this one.
