The First Honest Cable Company

erlanter says...

Eff that noise. I neither watch TV or even have it hooked up to cable, but still have to pay for a cable (package) to get decent internet where I live or pay (inexplicably) more. This, and having to renegotiate my bill every year (for the latest contract deals) to pay a less-unreasonable price drives me up the wall.

I think we might work for the same one...

On a different note, when you see what the Broadcasters charge the Providers to carry one of their channels (*cough* espn *cough*) you begin to understand why the service is so damn expensive, and sadly the broadcasters often have the providers by the balls as far as packaging and pricing goes. Not like a provider can afford to drop a channel (*cough* espn *cough*) and watch subscribers flock to the ones that do carry the channel.

Wozniak: Web crackdown coming, freedom failing

rich_magnet says...

He says nobody has a responsibility to speak out just because his company is really big.

Then he goes and finances the EFF. I'd say that's speaking out, though he believes he doesn't have to.

Christian Bakery Denies Service to Gay Couple

ChaosEngine says...

>> ^Morganth:

Then I guess I'm also bigoted and discriminate against pedophiles or the KKK for that matter. How dare I, right?


You fail to understand. Discrimination as a concept is not a bad thing. Discrimination against people for no good reason that is where the problem lies. To break it down:

Discrimination against nazis, pedophiles and twilight fans: Perfectly acceptable, those people did
something wrong.

Discrimination against people of other ethnicities, sexual orientation: bad!

>> ^Morganth:

And no, history will not judge me for my eff'd up morals, as you put it. History will judge me as someone who actually had morals that weren't swayed by popular culture, rather than changing beliefs with every whim of society.


Sadly for you, no. You aren't some brave moral crusader. You're a relic, clinging to an anachronistic belief that will be consigned to the same dustbin of history as those who thought women shouldn't vote. At best, you'll be tolerated and at worst, vilified.

No, that's not the definition of discrimination. And it's not the definition of bigotry either. You cannot simply cry "bigot" whenever someone else's beliefs aren't the same as yours.

dis·crim·i·na·tion   [dih-skrim-uh-ney-shuhn]
noun
1. an act or instance of discriminating.
2. treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit: racial and religious intolerance and discrimination.
The bakery is refusing to bake them a wedding cake because they are gay. They are making a distinction against a person based on their sexual orientation.
Now, care to try that again?

How NOT to Promote Science to Women

hpqp says...

So they took down the video after its condescending, patronising and stereotyping were justly pointed, but their channel is still there, with the following description (highlights added):

"Science is the basis for our make-up, fashion, music, and so much more. It inspires, enlightens and changes our world. So, what's stopping you from getting involved in science?


'Science: it's a girl thing!' is part of the 'Women in Research and Innovation' campaign which aims to encourage girls to develop an interest in science and to engage young women in scientific research careers.


Indeed, women remain largely under-represented in the science, technology and research fields in Europe, which constitutes a huge waste of talents.


'Science: it's a girl thing!' will challenge stereotypes around science and show girls that science can be a great opportunity for their future.


This pan-European campaign is an initiative of the European Commission's Directorate General for Research and Innovation."
