They should have. It should have been regulated. Most of you weren't born before the Web - I was on usenet, which *was* the Internet - late, in late 91. FAIR USE meant just that.

Then came Kantor and Siegel, "there's no communities here, it's only a marketing opportunity", and that's where it went wrong. No regulation led to the STUPID Internet bubble of 2000, which screwed a *lot* of us over. Since then... Ok, kiddies, reality check time: back in the day - like the sixties and seventies, when there were no more than about seven channels on tv, they were LIMITED to five? 10? minutes of commercials PER HOUR. Last time we taped a show, in the early nineties, it was 22 min/hour.
When cable came in, in the very early eighties, one of their selling point - and no, I'm not making this up - was "pay for cable, and you'll never have to watch commercials again."

Dereg sucks dead syphalitic CEOs' ROI.

CommentNew Jedi Order? (Score 1)124

Wait, Yoda had Luke burn the entire library of the Jedi order, and said it needed to end. Rey, after defeating the Emperor, and the Sith fell, retired to get away from it all.

WTF would she want to start a new order, to start the same cycle again? I don't buy it, at all.

My new Jedi order? Yeah, I'll take fries with that.

"Citation needed".

Or do you just pull accusation out of your ass?

Meanwhile, all those immigrants... so, tell us, do you do stoop labor in the fields? Or work construction?

Of course not. This falls under the heading of "if they're rapists and murderers, and coming here and stealing our jobs, exactly what is it that you do for a living?"
