that's the problem Fly, when we don't talk politics you are an amicable chap. I do think it's all an act because you account only became this extreme recently after your ban on Hero chat.
Tom Baker or Pertwee, for me Pertwee was better, although Zoe was my favourite assistant with Troughton. And my boarding call, later old chap, I am off to Ghana with the Mrs.
yeah. Zoe was cool. Also the first Non Screamer Girl Companion the Doctor Really got since Barbra. Don't Crash in the Himalayas and Eat any Yeti Made Lemon Ice!

By the time Trump's presidency is over I estimate 200 billion people dead.
Awful.

Nah. The only thing you destroyed was your own creditability. But whatever keeps the boogeyman going so you don't have to admit you were wrong.
But this is exactly what doomsday cultists love to do. They will never admit they were wrong. Just that they had the wrong date and the end will surely come with their next prediction. Have fun drinking that Kool-Aid. Hahahaha!!! Net Neutrality is gone.
Thousands of experts disagree, though. A majority of Republicans. And a majority of Democrats.
It's like..the only people supporting are large ISPs and large ISPs that offer cable TV services. As though..there's..some...sort....of conflict of interest.
Remember that one time when AT&T rolled out their new plans with effective dates on the day of the rescinding of the Net Neutrality rules?
I remember. I posted about it in this thread, too.
Can't blame them: they want to make as much money as possible.
Yes, this was just yet another example of snowflakes flippin' out over nothing & acting like the sky was falling because of it. My internet speed hasn't changed one bit since this was first announced and I'm totally fine with it.
I must say though that I'm totally against 5G technology. It's dangerous. Getting even faster internet speed than I already have (which is already pretty damn fast) is totally not worth it if it also puts my health at risk.

Oh ho ho ho, I caught that author being dishonest.
Fixed Broadband speeds increased, yes. That's physical wires, not wireless. With multiple infrastructure build-out projects being started back during the net neutrality days, of course wired internet would still continue to increase in speed.
But in a non-net-neutral world, what you'd see is a stagnation where most of the money is spent for internet access and use. And what is the most commonly used form of internet by far since 2014? Mobile devices.
Guess what the speeds are before and after net neutrality on mobile device networks? Almost 0 change between those two dates.
And guess why they selected June 2018 instead of the most recent data in May 2018? Because speeds dropped to 118Mbps for fixed broadband. Exactly what you'd expect in an noncompetitive market.
That's two very dishonest tactics from the author of that article.
Let's recap:
1. Author lied about true internet speeds and didn't state that the mobile data speeds stagnated.
2. The author used cherry picked data to support their position and didn't point out that speeds actually dropped for fixed internet speeds over the past year.
Let's take a wild guess at the author's interest in lying like this...an ISP shill, most likely.
