You're right. This could be a big problem. If white nationalists and white supremacists are blocked on Facebook, how will Republicans ever get their message out for next year's election?
Polls of Iowa voters show Warren beating Donald Trump in a head-to-head election. Let me repeat: IOWA voters.
On the other hand, Iowa Democratic voters put her 4th or 5th among other Democrats. It appears Iowa really doesn't want the Republican incumbent to win again. The trade war has hurt a lot of them, badly.
Welcome back to your copper insulated wireline that 100% NN ready and federally approved.
Welcome back to your one federal NN approved monopoly telco.
No more new competition. No new community broadband. No network innovation allowed.
Federal rules and laws protecting monopoly networks all the way down to the modem.
Nothing new for your gated community. Nothing better for your gentrified neighborhood.
Want community broadband? The exisiting NN approved network is the only network allowed.
Federal laws and rules slowing your internet since 2019?
Restoring slow gov approved networks all over the USA. No more new network freedom.

You really don't have the first clue about what the Net Neutrality rules did and did not do prior to December 14, 2017, do you? All this new bill does is reverse the Ajit Pai FCC fuckery from December, 2017 and sets it back to the way it was before that. Do you recall the Internet being slow before 2017? Do you really believe there was no network innovation before December 2017?
Federal laws and rules slowing your internet since 2019?
You really are a stupid sonofabitch, you know that?
This new trend of blocking things some people disagree with is just wrong.
So you won't mind if I put my 10-foot tall sign saying you have anal sex with sheep on your front lawn?
There is nothing wrong with blocking messages you disagree with. The world is not your toilet bowl. Government must not hinder speech (unless it breaks the law) but it's time you all learned the difference between public and private. Gofundme is not the government. They don't owe you a goddamn thing.
And no, I don't care if some god-bothering jackoff doesn't want to make a gay wedding cake. Go for it, Cletus. Turn away all the customers you want.
I don't think sites like 8chan and zerohedge, etc should be considered terrorist recruiting sites. It's basically just a bunch of edgelord shitposters who think it's clever to post racism, hatred, death threats, child porn and calls for violence. How are they supposed to know that actual terrorists and crazies would take them seriously and join their community?
On the other had, they should be considered a gateway drug to terrorism. ISPs and hosting services should consider carefully whether to do business with them.
You 8chan edgelords who think death threats, racism, child porn, etc are the height of clever discourse can only blame yourselves for this. At some point, people will say, "enough" and just shut you the fuck down. So now you spoil things for the rest of us who believe in free speech.
Good job. You run with scissors, don't cry when someone gets their eye put out.
You see now that Threadripper is kicking the shit out of Intel and taking its lunch money and stuffing it in a locker? Companies have been dumping Xeon workstations on eBay like its going out of style and that has driven the prices down quite a bit, I've been seeing 3.4Ghz 8 thread Xeon workstations (capable of being upgraded to 16 thread if you need more power) going for right around $200, and that is with a 1Tb drive, Win 10 Pro licensed and installed, and 8-16Gb of RAM. Slap in a $50 SSD for the OS and TADA! You have a nice gaming PC ready for the card of your choice.
Man, I hadn't thought of that. That sounds like just the thing. I'm thinking of getting one of those nvidia 1660 GTXs when they're out for a few months and that Xeon would be a good upgrade for me.
Anything I have to worry about using a Xeon to game? I'm not much of a hardware head, so I don't know. They work just like any i7, right?
Hey, you've got me excited now. I'm gonna go check some prices.
I'm with you. I play exclusively on a PC. but I don't believe you could build a capable gaming PC that includes a Vega 56 for $700-800. If you want to play current games, a good processor, 16gig memory, SSD drives, power supply and case and you're over $1000.
But really, why are we talking about the Vega 56 for gaming? Isn't it more of a pro-sumer style card for video editing and cad and stuff? I would think you'd be better off with one of the sub-$300 Radeons or AMD cards.
It has nothing to do with how much money I have or don't have. They're bragging about this $450 video card being able to do 30fps at 4k (but only if you have it attached to a PC that already cost you over $1000.. Before I do that, I'd buy a $450 PS4 Pro and spend the balance on an eight-ball of coke and take your mom out for a nice dinner and then anal sex.
Crytek has published a video showing an ordinary AMD Vega 56 GPU -- which has no raytracing specific circuitry and only costs around $450
Wait a fucking minute. "Only" costs around $450? If I tried to spend $450 on a video card for gaming, my wallet would jump up and slap me on the head. Visa would call me and ask if my credit card had been stolen.
The U.S. isn't the most obese nation on the planet. Its not even 10th. Do a quick google search before you start spouting such nonsense.
No, it's the 11th. HOWEVER: the top 9 are all tiny Pacific island nations like Samoa or Tonga where they typically get very big, but because of the type of diet they still stay pretty healthy. Have you noticed how many NFL linemen are from Samoa or Tonga or Cook Islands? Guys that look like big fatsos but can do a standing jump onto a table and dunk a basketball and run a 40-yd dash in the 5's.
Here is the list of the most obese nations. You will see that among industrialized nations, United States is first. You could argue that Kuwait is fat because they're all rich royalty and probably just sit and stuff themselves all day. Unlike Americans, who are not rich royalty, and probably just sit and stuff themselves all day.
Here is the list for those of you who really want to deny that the US is very close to the fattest nation on earth.

To be honest, it goes way back. It all started when your Mom asked me to dress up like Old MacDonald.

No, my definition of free speech is whatever the society you happen to live in will tolerate.
All rights are conditional. All of them. Nothing exists without context. Your "creator" did not endow you with a goddamn thing.

Good job. You run with scissors, don't cry when someone gets their eye put out.
Yes, but I would hope MI6 agents are too busy to mess around with internet polls.
This is a poor argument. There were more votes cast against Donald Trump than against Hillary Clinton.
You dumb sonofabitch, there is an account called, @ObamasPetCow. It has existed since July of 2015. It has not been banned.
You could have at least checked before making an ass of yourself.
Wait, why is that computer laughing at me?
No. It will first be used extensively in private industry. Watch and see.
I'm not saying their connected, but it's a big coincidence that the press release this story is based on gets released the same day this happens:
