"Seeing the view and perspective of other people" != "Empathy" Psychopath are often very good as seeing the view and perspective of other people... and how to abuse that knowledge for personal gain.
While we're being pedantic assholes; the user may have entered the correct username and password, but for a different website. So saying "username or password is incorrect" could also be misleading.
It doesn't prevent blocking or throttling anything. As long as "fast lanes" are allowed, nothing stops the ISP's from making the non-fast lane effectively blocked or however throttled they want. The bill plays word-games to appease gullible idiots.
You are so right! Completely unrelated, I'm a Nigerian prince who wants to give you $10 to $20 million if you send me $1000. I'm not sure yet how much I'll give you exactly, but Let's go with things we have agreement on, and other things can be addressed later.
Of course you don't agree with a partial agreement that only addresses the things that benefit the other party and vague promisses of addressing the rest later.
Then government also shouldn't make it artificially hard, or even impossible, for other providers to offer competing services, which is what they are doing now.
If Acme ISP is the only providers that is legally allowed to operate in your neighborhood, then government should butt in to ensure they don't abuse their government-provided artificial monopoly.
Assuming the transfer request was digital, there is no technical reason for transfers to take any longer than those few seconds (usually just a fraction of a second). Banks still hold up transfers to gain temporary use of the floating funds involved. They can do this because historically it did take days and they just never bothered to improve service to their customers, who will happily believe it still takes that long. If you pay a bank for it, they'll transfer in a few seconds (this is at near zero cost to them). If there is some other benefit to the bank (i.e. correcting mistakes), they'll transfer in a few seconds.
Nazi concentration camp guards (or in fact everybody working in those camps) were volunteers. Nobody was forced to work in those camps. This is actually true for a number of the most extremly amoral things the Nazi's did (like razzia's); those were volunteers and the Nazi's didn't punish those who didn't volunteer either. Those guards are 100% guilty and cannot hide behind orders.
This should be a criteria for judging whether or not something is sexual harassment. If, given the same context, the victims' wanted partner acted the same way, would it have also been unwanted? If it would; it's sexual harassment, otherwise it would have just been a failed attempt at flirtation; perhaps unwanted but not illegal or bad in any way. (Obviously; being a husband is a different context than being a stranger).
Do the cheat tools manipulate any copyrighted code or data in violation of the license? Does the video promote distribution of such tools? I agree such an interpretation of copyright is bullshit, but it works for sites posting links to bittorrents.
Your fallacy is confusing "value" with "money". Even if it were completely free (it isn't), the game still holds value in other forms; advertising space ("free" as in "search engine"), reputation ("free" as in "sponsored event"), market research ("free" as in "free sample").
NASA use multiple versions of the same functionality to triple-check each other because they understand that no code can be perfect. If they can't afford to make "robust" code, why do you think a games company can?
Besides, perfection isn't even enough; the code would need to do additional things beyond being absolutely perfect; it should be able to somehow magically discern between humans playing a game and computers playing the game in exactly the same way.
Had the same thought. Listened to the source material (https://krallice.bandcamp.com/). Yeah; it's supposed to sound that crap. There you go, finally found another music genre I hate; polka, operetta and black metal.
No Blocking, No Throttling and No Paid Prioritization
Feel free to point out where exactly in the proposal it bans blocking, throttling or paid prioritization: https://apps.fcc.gov/edocs_pub.... Hint; it's not on page 134, chapter 235 where all three are explicitly no longer banned.
It should also be stated that a reasonable Excel sheets is a lot (as in "a handful of magnitudes") cheaper than any custom-made solution that a consulting firm would build. And the Excel sheet would actually work.
As some point some Excel sheets become succesfull enough to outgrow their limits, and that's when you hire a consultancy firm to port it.
(FWIW, I've worked at such a consultancy firm; they mostly exist by overselling ridiculously overcomplicated solutions then running up double the budget).

Any example of a republican being "purged" (whatever that may mean) just for being a republic?
"Seeing the view and perspective of other people" != "Empathy"
Psychopath are often very good as seeing the view and perspective of other people... and how to abuse that knowledge for personal gain.
Wisdom - the ability to take the perspectives of others into account and aim for compromise
This is not the definition of "Wisdom" any dictionary or person I know uses, myself included.

The customers already pay for that "data that floods their network". Should Comcast and Verizon get paid twice for the same data?
Good idea, as long as they also get rid of this:
Sometimes you need a mobile for teaching reasons
You can't have it both ways.
personally, I think my desktop PC is more likely to get a malware infection that steals currency than their locked down, offline systems.
How about their online systems that actually connect to the outside world?
Or do you redefine "offline" as "online, but somehow magically more secure because there are a lot of network connections inbetween"?

If you identify a UFO as a UFO, is it still a UFO?

Ah yes, the old "Perfection is easy" argument.
NASA use multiple versions of the same functionality to triple-check each other because they understand that no code can be perfect. If they can't afford to make "robust" code, why do you think a games company can?
Besides, perfection isn't even enough; the code would need to do additional things beyond being absolutely perfect; it should be able to somehow magically discern between humans playing a game and computers playing the game in exactly the same way.
I don't really think it's replacing humans in this case.

The Samsung ad shows him with an iPhone and a pretty girl in all the scenes. The last scene shows him having a Samsung... alone.
Motorola doesn't even mention the iPhone X, so if you haven't seen Samsung's ad, you'd think it's just going after Galaxy handsets.
The Motorola ad doesn't mention Samsung either, so if you haven't seen Samsung's ad, you wouldn't know they were going after any specific handset.
