Yeah but nuking the filibuster, if that's what you're referring to, would actually be a horrible idea.

If Democrats are a majority, then they will pass anything unopposed, which would be great. Means progress and getting shit done.

But if we end up with Republican majority, we're going to be in a world of shit, very fast because they'd get the same benefits.

Voting matters. Vote trash out.

I think the moment for me was when they had Mark Zuckerberg himself, testify to Congress.

They didn't "grill him" as media would've liked to have you believe. The guy danced around all of Congress because they themselves didn't know a damn thing about what he was saying. Of course he wasn't penalized and got off scot-free.

Just like every other tech company. The FTC, has no teeth. The FCC, has no teeth. Congress, has no brain.

The US will welcome it with open arms. Because of course, America.

I'm content with 100MBPS myself. It's fast enough to load sites nigh instantaneously. I don't have a lot of hiccups. It downloads things reasonably well.

I would rather be on 100MBPS than the times where, I wasn't. Like I remember dial-up, 33kbps. I remember shitty ass DSL 768kbps. I remember local "broadband" of 1 ~ 5MB.

If I got anything less than 100MBPS, then I'd be discontented. The only way I'd be even more content is probably being on your level or 250MBPS at least. Why would I need gigabit connectivity? It sounds like something I'd need, if I was like a business or having multiple people around. I'm only one person though.
