1. No question, the amounts they are asking are insane.

Seriously? "Just sell it for a dollar"?? That's your solution? While each digital copy carries a very low cost (just hosting and bandwidth), the original (in the case of a movie) cost tens of millions of dollars to make.

Yeah, awful analogy (although OldBrass already stole my thunder). But, I'm here so...

I'm pretty sure the Google guys are straight...

Because Facebook owns any photo you post there. It's in the TOS

I'm glad that we can still be friends. For the record, I'm on AT&T (since 1998, when it was Cellular One in the Bay Area), and I curse them every day because I have to pay extra to use the hotspot feature on my phone, despite the fact that it still comes out of my regular data allotment.

I'm curious if you really feel this strongly about it, or if the back and forth just made you elevate your opinion for the sake of the argument.

I definitely don't work for Verizon, and to be honest, I'm not trying to defend what they're doing here. Like you said above, they are making this change for their own benefit. But what they're actually doing will have no negative effect on a vast majority of their customers. If this change is going to be invisible…

Whaaaaaat are you talking about?

Well, anyway...

So, 15 years ago Verizon (GTE Mobilenet back then) had 250 minute monthly plans for $59.99. Voicemail was $5.00 extra, and obviously whatever phones were available did little more than make calls and play Snake. There was zero service on I-5 between Tracy and Los Angeles (except for a little spot in Fresno), and…

Bears don't have to wipe their asses. They can just drop and go, which I envy. So, it's still different.

Because it's a Panaphonics. Same catalog has some cool items from Magnetbox and Sorny though.

For a second I thought the picture was the the new iOS 6 Maps app with 3D mapping. If you can't zoom any closer it seems kind of useless...

I don't want to buy another TV. I already have two Samsung LED 240 hz {55 & 60 in; }(and not a damn thing, not fios, not blu ray, none of my output devices, nothing, has over 60hz refresh rate most are 24hz; they look amazing but I am not so stupid as to not know that it will be years before the 240 hz makes any real…

Gotcha. Well, they probably won't sue, and if it went to jury (which it wouldn't) they would lose for certain.

No. The reason they died was that they drove into a ditch.

Their family might sue, and they'd likely win if it went to jury.

Not as interesting! Your headline doesn't inspire me to click...

It's almost becoming a game!
