The new "NoScript" is a joke, compared to the old one
Actually, I'm enjoying the new interface more than the old one, and it works just as well as it did before. Also, complaining about the the lack of addons only a couple weeks after the release of 57 is churlish. Again, you need to troll better.
Once you start throwing the baby out with the bathwater to the cries of "DEEEP STATE!!11!!", you lose a little perspective. He probably thinks the USPS are part of it at this point.
Sorry, let me make myself more clear. Considering the state of copyright law in the western world, it's entirely possible to support the idea intellectual property, yet not support its implementation. Conflating the two is just stupid.
Also, that list is missing the actual reasons I use to justify my piracy, but nice try:)
If you don't agree with the ethics of copyright in the first place, then just admit that you don't care about intellectual property in the first place instead of hiding behind the notion that you didn't have a choice in the matter, because it's plainly obvious that you do.
Why does the choice have to be so black and white? I'm actually in favour of copyright laws. But what Disney and the rest have done to it over the decades means it's fucking joke right now.
presumable at least some of what you want to watch was available on Netflix, so you should reduce your bit-torrent amount by a little bit at least.
It has for me, especially since most of the stuff I can get on Netflix was the kind of stuff I was downloading because I dind't really want to shell out money for a permanent copy of something that was average.
I still download good shit (because I'm so done with physical media), but I'll make up for it by buying a physical copy and donating it to the library or a friend.
Yeah, nerds don't want to admit that Microsoft have actually improved their products in the last 20 years. Meanwhile, on the Linux side of things, we got Ubuntu. *shudder*
OK, let me be clearer: Schmoe gets minimum wage job. Schmoe goes to collect hos paycheck, sees that its short and complains. Boss says shut up or you lose your job. Schmoe chooses lesser evil.
I want people who complain to put forth something they think is REAL amidst a storm of FUD,
That's essentially trolling. If you really wanted information, you'd just go find it. What you want is to sneer at people. Good luck with that.
we'll see what actually plays out and see how valid your fears and concerns actually were.
That's already going to happen. We don't need your discount gauntlet test for that.
I think it's pretty telling you are not willing to commit to single negative aspect of NN being repealed.
I think it's pretty telling how laser focused you are at pissing on people you think are disagreeing with you. I haven't mentioned my feelings about NN in my reply to you because I don't care. The FCC will pass the measure, we'll have a couple years of ISPs trying to make as much hay out of it as possible, then a Dem admin will reverse it. It's all extremely yawnerrifc from my perspective.
Your actions speak louder than your (lack of) words...
TFA is talking about race. It should be talking about affluence
Which are both tightly linked. TFA is clickbaity as fuck, as Apple is a symptom as opposed to the problem, but it's a simple truth that being non-white in the US automatically puts a dent in your affluence and economic mobility.
Slashdot Mirror
The new NoScript is missing a TON of features that the old one had.
So many you couldn't even mention one? Wow, how exhausting.
There's been far more time than "a couple of weeks" to port extensions.
Deosn't really change the fact that you're still like a kid at christmas whining he didn't get enough toys.
And I'm not talking about the horrible new UI
You mean the one that has minor changes from the old one? Jesus, the hyperbole on you.

Close enough to irrelevant.
LOL. "I don't like those numbers so I'll just handwave them away."
new extension-less version of Firefox
*Checks his add-ons* Nope, they're all working just fine, thanks. You need to troll better.
so if your website is broken in Firefox
I'll bet you $20 those numbers are even more trivial than the ones you just dismissed.
I've long said the death of sane politics in the West is not the fault of liberals or conservatives, but parents.

"We" did? Where did we say that?
No it wasn't, that movie was shit.
then what could the patient have a POSSIBLY done!?!?!?!
Duh, that's easy: He should have had a second tattoo below the first one, from his lawyer, notarizing the whole thing.
It sounds to me like they want to turn everything into a browser.

Like, say, the dense parts of Baltimore or St. Louis? Gotcha.
Not sure the point you're trying to make since a) both those cities have high minority populations and b) both have Apple Stores.
OK, let me be clearer: Schmoe gets minimum wage job. Schmoe goes to collect hos paycheck, sees that its short and complains. Boss says shut up or you lose your job. Schmoe chooses lesser evil.
That's theft by coercion, no?
Counting minimum wage violations as "theft" is idiotic beyond belief.
Serious question: Why?
Can confirm: reading comprehension is still a difficult challenge for our 'cuck'-wielding brethren.

Settle down, Beavis.
If you'd actually bothered to google the issue, instead of exposing yourself to nothing but "bitching", you could answer the question for yourself.
So, your take on Appalachia is that the people who live there are plenty wealthy, just not living close enough to each other?
No, my take on Appalachia is that it's not dense enough to be ignored for being shithole poor.
Then again, if it were far denser, it stands to reason it would be a lot more prosperous as well.

The GP's point is about the difference.
Not really.
Apples and oranges. That's a density thing, whereas TFA is talking about affluence.
If you take the government out of the equation, do you think corporations like Google, etc. are going to become somehow less-connected?
No, someone like you would probably call them communists.
Hey, I'll happily bash the US any hour of the day, but giving them the credit for protectionism is really short-sighted.
