when i was like 7 some idiot didn't let me off of a roller-coaster even though my harness thingy wasn't locking in place and since then ive gotten random burning pains in my back/shoulders and I can't lay flat on my back (it restricts my breathing) so i went to a doctor a year later and she was like "is it really that bad" and i was like "yes" but she didn't believe me. it turns out i have damage to my spinal cord that now can't be fixed as we waited too long for treatment

On December 14 the FCC will vote on Commissioner Pai’s plan to repeal Title II rules. This week he tried to justify that decision with a “myth busting” explainer where he makes a lot of sweeping claims he doesn’t think you’ll fact check.
So let’s go through his big points:
These are the real facts. Before Title II, the internet was so “free and open” that…
Comcast blocked P2P file sharing services (EFF).
AT&T blocked Skype from iPhones (Fortune) and, later, wanted FaceTime users to pay for a more expensive plan (Freepress).
MetroPCS blocked all streaming video except YouTube (Wired).
In today’s media market where the same huge companies make and deliver content, Commissioner Pai wants us to trust that corporations won’t use their dominance to bury competitive content or services.
Here’s another claim Commissioner Pai doesn’t want you to fact check, but:
AT&T’s own CEO told investors that the company would deploy more fiber optic networks in 2016 than 2015 when the FCC passed Title II protections (Investor call transcript).
Charter’s CEO said “Title II, it didn’t really hurt us; it hasn’t hurt us” (Ars Technica).
And Comcast actually increased investment in their network by 10% in Q1 of this year (Ars).
As we mentioned above, ISPs tried to interfere with the services their customers could access and courts had to step in to stop them.
The FCC tried to craft net neutrality rules in 2010 called the Open Internet Order but the ISPs sued and won. The courts told the FCC that the only way to guarantee a free and open internet was using their Title II authority. Without those protections, any of these things would be legal:
Your ISP launches a streaming video service and starts throttling other streaming services until they’re unusable.
Your phone company cuts a deal with a popular music streaming service so it doesn’t count towards your data cap but lowers your overall data limit. If a better service comes along (or your favorite artist releases new tracks somewhere else) you can’t use it without incurring huge data fees.
A billionaire buys your ISP and blocks access to news sites that challenge their ideology.
Repealing Title II would be like letting a car company own the roads and banning a competitor from the highways.
Let’s break this down: We won’t have fast lanes and slow lanes, we’ll have “priority access” and…non-priority access? Well gosh.
This week we co-signed a letter with more than 300 other companies—businesses Mr. Pai gleefully ignores—urging the FCC to retain the Title II internet protections. Now we need you.
Oh, also: that post about automatically unfollowing the #net neutrality tag—it’s not true. It’s really not. That’s not who we are. Whatever happened, we haven’t been able to reproduce it. We tried. A lot.
But if it were true—which it’s not, we feel compelled to say again—THAT’S EXACTLY WHY YOU SHOULD CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES and demand a free, open, and neutral internet.

today i went to a college physics lab for a science competition and they had this thing that was like two disks on opposite sides of a very large room and if you whispered into one of them someone with their ear near the other would be able to hear you as if you were speaking in a normal voice right next to them and i wanted to see what would happen if someone just yelled into one of them so i told my friend to put his ear on the other one and he was like ok and went to do it and when he got there Ii yelled moderately loud into it and it echoed through the whole room of like 200+ people and everyone got silent and we got in trouble
Please don't scream, I have anxiety and loud noises really can trigger a panic attack. It's okay occasionally, but I just really really want to have fun at this event :)
Please please please, do not just continually scream throughout the show. Sure when they come out is fine. But some people have anxiety and it is very difficult for them to be in a large crowd, especially one that is constantly screaming. Not to mention, it just becomes annoying. For me personally, I don’t want my parents to get angry at me or Dan and Phil because everyone just screamed the whole time. I’d really like to be able to hear the show my mother paid $500 for me to see. Of course this also references the meet and greet. I’m just asking you to please respect Dan, Phil, and your fellow fans. I don’t mean this rudely; I’m just asking for a common curtesy. :)
