Got you loud and clear on my sexy 56kbps Dialup connection.

daddit

AOL actually still makes the majority of their money from dial-up internet subscribers. Isn't that insane? http://www.theverge.com/2015/1/30/7949485/aol-shutting-down-tuaw-apple

daddit

I don't stumble into those very often, but I'll keep your blessing in mind. It might work for an incessant email/letter to our congressional asshats.

daddit

I always thought that the funniest things about it is that while the explanation was awful, everyone quotes the one part that made sense when they're trying to make fun of it. From [Wired](http://www.wired.com/2006/06/your_own_person/): > There’s one company now you can sign up and you can get a movie delivered to your house daily by delivery service. Okay. And currently it comes to your house, it gets put in the mail box when you get home and you change your order but you pay for that, right. > > But this service is now going to go through the internet* and what you do is you just go to a place on the internet and you order your movie and guess what you can order ten of them delivered to you and the delivery charge is free. > > Ten of them streaming across that internet and what happens to your own personal internet? > > I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o’clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why? > > Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially. > > So you want to talk about the consumer? Let’s talk about you and me. We use this internet to communicate and we aren’t using it for commercial purposes. > > We aren’t earning anything by going on that internet. Now I’m not saying you have to or you want to discrimnate against those people [ø] > > The regulatory approach is wrong. Your approach is regulatory in the sense that it says "No one can charge anyone for massively invading this world of the internet". No, I’m not finished. I want people to understand my position, I’m not going to take a lot of time. [ø] > > They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It’s not a truck. > > It’s a series of tubes. > > And if you don’t understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material. > > Now we have a separate Department of Defense internet now, did you know that? > > Do you know why? > > Because they have to have theirs delivered immediately. They can’t afford getting delayed by other people. > > [ø] > > Now I think these people are arguing whether they should be able to dump all that stuff on the internet ought to consider if they should develop a system themselves. > > Maybe there is a place for a commercial net but it’s not using what consumers use every day. > > It’s not using the messaging service that is essential to small businesses, to our operation of families. > > The whole concept is that we should not go into this until someone shows that there is something that has been done that really is a viloation of net neutraility that hits you and me.

daddit

He blamed the tubes getting clogged on his staffers sending him an email on Friday and only getting it on Tuesday. I'm pretty sure his staffers just lied to him though.

daddit

Albert something. I can't remember the last name.

daddit

Don't know, but his friend said, "Great analogy, Einstein," right before he gave him $100% wet Willies.

daddit

Even his dad calls him ZionSpartan.

daddit

I remember watching a documentary, I think, where the guy interviews a senator, and asks if he believes the earth was 10.000 years old (I think) he answers: "yes I do. there is no IQ test to get into the congress" something like that.

daddit

That George Bush story is a myth that keeps getting repeated because it fits the narrative. From the AP: >It turns out the supermarket scanner that drew President Bush’s attention at a grocers’ convention last week really did have some unusual features. It can read labels – the so-called universal product codes – that are ripped up and jumbled. That is apparently what prompted Bush to tell the National Grocers Association in Orlando Feb. 4 he was “amazed” by the technology.

daddit

You know what, you're right. I'm too cynical. My 8 year old was telling me the other day about how my cynicism is the manifestation of my own internalized feelings of abandonment developed over years of a distant relationship with my father. A child's mind, I guess.

daddit

/u/USER's son 2024! "There isn't a world problem I've faced that couldn't somehow be solved by the ice cream store analogy."

daddit

I see your point, however, 9 year olds are generally 4th graders. So that's a sizeable difference from kindergarten. I nanny for a 9 year old. We talk about some pretty serious stuff sometimes. Kids are a product of their environment.

daddit

9 year olds don't go to kindergarten. I can EASILY see a third grader being concerned enough about how well his or her internet connection and/or Netflix worked as to think about this, and talk about it with his or her friends.

daddit

Solid reply, much appreciated.

daddit

No, it will be based on the _manufacturer_ of that ice cream. Not its thickness, nor its flavor.

daddit

And yet it's everyone else that is stupid.

daddit

Chances are whatever you think you are best at, there is a 9 year old asian kid out there who can do it better than you.

daddit

Exactly - people learn things from going on websites like Reddit nowadays. ...my god what have we done.

daddit

People talk about how Millenials are digital natives, but really we're like the first immigrants to the Internet. We remember a time before it. My kids have always had these things. *They're* the digital natives.

daddit

To bad not many realize this, took me a bit to long as well.

daddit

Apparently you have not thoroughly read the part where the word "legal" content is used over and over again. Which begs the question what is legal vs illegal content, and who decides what is which? And do we want someone making the call as to what is legal and not legal?

daddit

The motion carries.

daddit

I yield my time to the gentleperson from /r/ExplainLikeImCalvin

daddit

I dont know about. All the explanations would been in doublespeak and everything would be misinterpreted - with half the readers thinking that it needs to favor small government and driven by their need to repeal old laws originally intended to stop monopolies because they think the laws dont apply anymore - which will only open up profit opportunities for big corporations these laws were intended for in the first place.

daddit

Nice. ELIE!

daddit

Like when you bet the house on the ponies?

daddit

It's a series of tubes

Same thing with courts, since its all based on president and things dont always correspond well. Its a bad system.

daddit

Oh, you mean like how [Florida bans the phrase "climate change"](http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2015/03/08/3631198/florida-dep-bans-climate-change-investigation/)?

I drink your milkshake. I drink it up!

It had to be done, I'm just glad you were here to do it.

daddit

Seriously if a music video was made, i want to see John Boehner in mini skirt.

daddit

This comment needs to be recognised. Brilliant

daddit

your a reason i love reddit

daddit

The vanilla shake from Sysco, always is ok as Sysco is a preferred vendor and owns part of the franchise. The Cookie Dough shake made with Ben & Jerry's, well you see B&J doesn't buy enough from us ...

daddit

Then congress would pass legislation deregulating the straw maker so that they could start producing different sized straws. Cocktail stirrer sized straws would be available to the masses, while mcdonalds sized milkshake straws would be only available to those who could afford it. Then apple would introduce the gold plated straw.

daddit

I feel like Netflix shakes would be really really big but you would still sip it all in one sitting

daddit

The straw company doesn't see a lot of users drinking Pistachio Milkshakes, so Pistachio can go as it pleases, but Chocolate is really causing them to be strained on their stock, so we need to slow the flow of Chocolate.

daddit

But everyone forgets that all the straws connect to a central point before connecting to their chosen flavor. This causes shake conjestion. Netflix and other flavors can pay for a bigger direct straw instead of paying for slower conjested access through the backbone straw.

daddit

Pretty sure ... * Congress would then try pass a law to allow the straw guy to make GPS illegal to sell in the US. They would call it SOPA for fun. * Congress would then try pass a law to allow the straw sellers to take down street signs for business they did not like to prevent you from going anywhere else.

daddit

I'll let them know that the burn unity is down the hall and to the... LEFT. ;-)

daddit

That's not a backronym

daddit

"I drink your milkshake!"

daddit

Another strawman, I'm done

daddit

Thats what my dad always says about George W Bush. If I were the leader of a country I would rather my citizens think I was stupid than think I was knowingly lying and fucking them.

daddit

It's not consumer gouging, and doesn't have anything to do with the poor people. It's so much worse than that. It's gouging from content providers; the people that help make the poor people forget they're poor for a little while. That's the point of the thing the kid said, see. "Not until the *ice cream guy* pays me more money!"

daddit

"All those freeloaders, walking around with their free ObamaShakes". "Well, to be fair, that program was started under Reagan, and expanded under every President since him..." "Commie lies!!!"

daddit

Hey, what about me? Nobody ever thinks about Joe.

daddit

Unfortunately there's really no evidence that they can't get away with this exact strategy. They're so good at radicalizing people with wedge issues that people ignore the unpalatable parts of the party platform, often times willingly. Before you know it they're denying global warming and telling you it's fine that Rand Paul opposes marriage equality. I know the demographics look bad at a macro level but they've become so good at gerrymandering their base voters into strongholds that they can completely subsist on undereducated rural voters.

daddit

I would think ensuring that the turnout remains low would be important to the GOP - this issue would potentially bring out those voters in droves. State races as well as ballot questions could be adversely impacted (for the GOP) by driving a more liberal demographic to the polls that normally couldn't be bothered.

daddit

They tend to vote democratic because the Republicans keep doing shit like this and wont move on from the 1970's mode of thinking. There is a ton of room for a conservative party in the US with younger people...all you have to do is not be in favor of banks/companies butt fucking the consumers and stop making it sound like you're in favor of rape.

All chord progressions are very close to a Phish song.

My grandson just turned 2 and he loves [watching people opening Kinder eggs](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=opening+kinder+surprise+eggs). No one has any clue how he got there.

daddit

My little sister also watches StumpyNoFoot. I can't judge considering I watched almost 200 episodes of the syndicate project when I went through my minecraft phase. I play the 360 version with her sometimes, she's 10 I'm 17 and my mum thinks it's a completely stupid game (which I also thought before I played it). My dad laughs at our bickering over why my sister didn't build a roof and that's why the spider got in and other nonsense.

daddit

People think kids are fucking morons. Kids are just as smart as adults, they just dont know as much.

daddit

No one listened when 11 year old me said that No Child Left Behind and The USA PATRIOT ACT act were bad ideas, but I was fucking right.

daddit

Oh look Mr fancy pants with your 56k. We had to use 26k modems!

daddit

That's okay, congressmen and congresswomen barely stumble into them themselves.

daddit

> I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o’clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why? > > Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially. Lol, more likely his staff was late sending the email and made up an explanation about how it took the internet an entire day to send the thing because kids are streaming movies.

daddit

And everyone clapped and the kids friend gave him a milkshake as a sign of his appreciation.

daddit

He'd only be about 18 by then, and the presidential age minimum is 35.

daddit

Is there an ice cream analogy for a lady that has such a nice body that men prefer her over other women?

daddit

You are correct. The essential point stands though. The discrimanting quality is not the amount of product, it's quality that is irrelevant to it's transport.

daddit

I vote for the suspension of Congress and nominating this young man as Imperator for 10 years

Wait! Did we skip the voting part? 'Cause there should be a voting part.

we'll only fund the creation of this subreddit if Upvotes are removed from the site's platform. *Cameron, when the fuck is Stacy back from lunch?
