FCC to repeal Net Neutrality Bill

[The Flutterlands]

You are surgarcoating this. You are making this like it's no big deal when killing net neutrality desecratesthe internet, the digital global source of information and communication.

How do you call yourself a Christian, when you elevate a man-made invention to a sacrament? Nobody is sugarcoating anything, you have an internet addiction, and I also an apparent phobia of *GASP* opening a book.

1.)I don't really care for religion anymore.
2.) I do read books, but books have limitations. The internet is unlimited when free and open. Ajit Pai had ruined that.
3.) I may have an addiction but the internet is good for getting news and communicating with friends. So it's not a bad thing.

You sound like this asshole telling me that the destruction of the free and open internet is no big deal.

Actually read the article.

"Why you gotta be so ruuuuuude!

Don'tcha know I'm human tooooo!

Why you gotta be so ruuuuuude!

...Imma marry [him] anyway!"

Yeah, no, nobody is being a donkey-butt around here. You're just panicking over the possibility of having to pick-up a book.

FFS. That is not the fucking issue. I like to read books, but the internet has become the go-to place for the most up-to-date news and information you can find. Books are limited and become out of date informationwise.

[Camicon]

Ajit Pai deserves death threats because he made fun of you in an internet video? Yes. That is more certainly the correct position on this particular issue. Death for mockery.

You haven't seen the video, have you? Also don't put words into my mouth.

I have seen the video. It's irritating, and part of me wants to see someone stick a cock of rancid pepperoni in Ajit Pai's mouth, but that's about it.

And it doesn't take a fucking genius to see where the violent overthrow of the United States government, because "muh preshuhz NURT NURTRLTY", leads.

Dude. Seriously?
Take a chill pill. I bet you couldn’t last 3 months without the internet. Do you ya know who has? Me. And several other people. I’ve gone without the internet for 6 months before. It’s not that hard to do. It sucks but it’s not the end of the world

I can't look at his face online without wanting to chuck my phone outta window.

That might be a sign you're overreacting. Seeing the face of a person you've never met shouldn't be eliciting such a violent response.

The attempted overthrowers all dead because the vast majority of the US won't side with them?

Sometimes it feels like the US is reaching the point of hatred where there is a minority of extremists on both sides who just want an excuse to kill the other side if the other side would only take the first shot.

He is a smug corporate stooge who sold us out kicking and screaming. He is rightfully among the most hated men in America

Then maybe don't spend so much time looking at it. I don't like Trump, I don't go looking for Trump unless it's in a meme. I don't like Obama or Hillary, I don't look for them unless it's memes. Get it?

Ya might want to disconnect for awhile. It will definitely help. All I’m asking is one week without looking at the news.

Obviously; but assuming it was somehow even an iota successful, individuals that inspire violent revolutions typically don't survive said violent revolutions.

Well seeing that he’s not in the news and hasn’t been for a long while is telling

You apparently. You look-up videos to find-out what he's doing, you watched the video where he clearly spat on something you supposedly care so much about, while knowing it would make you angry, and you continue to post articles about him despite being utterly disgusted by him. Sounds like masochism to me. Either way it's massively unhealthy that you're so utterly fixated on a single human being without good reason.

Jesus is mine, so I don't go thinking about Satan all the time.

"But Lumi you're writing a book about angels and de-"

IT IS A NOVEL LITTLE VOICE IN MY MIND.

1.) Well that's a new development, I guess Net Neutrality (or Ajit Pai) is your new religion now?
2.) You sound like someone who hasn't read enough books. Furthermore, Ajit Pai is not keeping you from going on Encyclopedia.com and looking-up information, is he? Or Wiki?
3.) You have an addiction, you treat it. It's one thing to want to talk to family and friends, it's another to never be able to leave your computer.

1.) Haha. No.
2.) Books are not the fucking issue. The internet is the issue. I know I can pick up a book, but the internet is better for research.
3.) I guess I do need to work on it. That does not mean I should take the repeal of Net Neutrality as no big deal like you are feeling me

[Soldati Senza Confini]

There’s this wonderful place called a library. It’s full of everything you could ever need

Don't sugarcoat this. The internet is the only definitive place for research in the digital agem

No, it's not.

I still go to libraries to get information from books. There's much info not digitized yet.

I mean, it's not like ArXiV is going offline tomorrow, and PDFs are easy to download. Primary research is not being done in the internet yet. And there is still a value for old books.

1.) Your recent posts suggest otherwise.
2.) Books do seem to be part of your issue though. I have a library 20 minutes from my house. Has a good number of books, even in a small-town library. Not a problem for me, if I want to do research, though the internet is definitely more convenient. There's a difference between a "convenience" and "right", believe it or not.
3.) Step one is getting off your computer.

Odd, while I did indeed use many different journal articles that I got online to write my dissertation all those journal articles where available in print format or on University computers after having been scanned in. All I would have needed to do was go to the library to look at those articles.

Better? Yes. Correct? No. There is no "correct" way to research. You research however the hell you want.
