Into Darkness

Contrary to popular belief, the Sonic and Knuckles cart only worked with other Sonic games.

If you try to attach your Star Trek: The Next Generation: Echoes from the Past cartridge you will just get an error message.

I’m sure Paramount has already tried this several times to no avail.

You don’t need iTunes to manage an iPod. There are tons of alternative apps, as well as plugins for music players like foobar2000 and Winamp.

iPods are still great. You can even replace their hard drives with modern flash storage and they work. It’s actually really impressive, i built a 256GB iPod Mini and iTunes has no problem with it. For the Mini, any compact flash card works as a drop-in replacement for the hard drive. Other models require a cheap adapter.

it’s also not a good way of actually figuring out who is critical.

you can have people who keep the lights on and if they do their job right few even notice they exist.

re-releases like this are not even remotely a new thing

A website isn’t a common carrier, you cannot argue that a website isn’t allowed to control who they serve their content to. An ISP is a common carrier because they simply act as a dumb pipe between the provider (websites) and the consumer.

Cloudflare is a tool websites use to exercise that right, necessitated by the ever rising prevalence of bots and DDoS attacks. Your proposed definition of net neutrality would destroy anyone’s ability to deal with these threats.

Can you at least provide examples of legitimate users who are hindered by the use of Cloudflare?

I’ve always wondered, what do Comcast’s boots taste like?
