More jazz hands to distract media attention from the Epstein scandal

"pro life"

Expect more Jazz Hands like that every day for as long as the Epstein scandal is of interest.

Starship Troopers

But mostly because it isn't really based on the book at all. Paul Verhoeven famously tried to read the book, got immediately bored and decided to make it his own thing.

In my area geetting that higher bandwidth is at least an extra $50/month and I'm being conservative. That's $600/year just to download games quicker.

That means that if you're buying a new massive game once every month and a half you're paying just as much for bandwidth to download the game as you're paying for the game itself.

This is not good value unless you have so much disposable income that you don't even know what to do with it.

Which supports my point that average bandwidth is not an indicator of overall quality of internet accessible to the public because it can very easily be skewed by household size.

But people read half of the first paragraph and downvote. I guess it's on me for not being concise enough.

I have 75 mbps and it's plenty enough except maybe for that one time once in a while where I'm downloading a game on Steam and would like it a little quicker. I see no point of paying three times what I'm paying right now per month to get 300 mbps. Even if it's available, even if I can afford it. I'd need to download a whole bunch of stuff at the same time to ever make use of that kind of bandwidth.

I can tell some ISPs are blatantly preying on ignorant people, selling them 300 mbps connections at a premium while all they do is google stuff, check their e-mails and browse their social media. They'll never use more than a tenth of what they're paying for, the rest is just wasted money. But they don't know that.

Average internet speeds in a country can be a very misleading stat as a result.

Edit: Looks like two people don't like that they've realized they're overpaying for their internet.

Maybe Fairphone should criticize Graphene OS for the non existent support of Fairphone devices.

Seriously I'd get a Fairphone with GrapheneOS in a heartbeat should it become available.

When the Martians from Mars Attacks! disguise as Klingons

Interesting how we've all become accustomed to the notion that "agreeing to arbitration" has just become "waving your consumer rights" and no lawmaker is pushing to have that fixed.

"Are we the baddies?"

That's fine. Those are the plugins you chose to install for your particular tastes and these are very important options to have available to the user should he choose to use them. That's not what I meant by "smart" features.

What I don't want is my browser with built-in modern equivalents of Bonzi Buddy that you can't remove.
