TRT: I like it but I'm not sure if it'll fit Edition

Honestly, I'm skeptical on both sides. I've always been a fan of Google, and Verizon to an extent (Sprint is still my favorite cellular network), but the FCC hasn't impressed me in the last year or so.
I want ISP's and cellular broadband providers to be prevented from throttling legal traffic from competing companies over their network, or charging extra for streaming video or things like that, but I don't want any more than that. And any less would be bad for consumers too.
I'm afraid the FCC might want more, and that Google/Verizon might want less.
Though I'll stay a fan of Google until they start promoting government takeovers. :O

I was in full support of it before the government started to push their own agenda through it.
Now, I'm not quite sure what exactly would happen if "Net Neutrality" was enforced, because I don't know what it's definition is anymore. Because of that, I can't say with all certainty that I support it.
All I know is that I want what I stated in my previous post. No more, no less. Too much regulation and our economy will take another hit (and our level of technology could cease to be on par, or above that of the rest of the world). Too little regulation and the consumers will be taken advantage of (and again, we'll see a lack of technological development, as the companies will see no reason to upgrade their networks if they have no competition).

I woke up without a heartbeat
But I remember we was just in the car deep
Was at a light, and got approached by a car thief
He pulled out, but didn't ask for no car keys
A loud noise without a voice, and I'm trying to scream out shit is not fair
I can't tell you where I'm at, or how I got here
Surrounded by all white, maybe it's just cloudy
Escorted by two men who knew everything about me
Both of them so strong, kept saying hold on,
Feel like my souls gone, naked no clothes on
I know this can't be my fate, I scream wait
As they drop me in front of a gate, they left no trace
I can see my every breath like a cold day, stood before a man with no face
He said to me "Please don't make this any harder"
Who the fuck is you? "My child, I'm your father"
I only got one dad, "Is that a fact to you?
He left you when you was young, I brought him back to you
You're real close to heaven, few get to step in
Now tell me what you've done to deserve to be let in"
Look I'm far from a christian, not big on religion
But ain't done too much wrong my entire time living
Never killed, never tried to, though I've been lied to
Was once suicidal, never read the bible
I've always been a caretaker, tried to nurse people
At times it backfired, hurt people, hurt people
Plus I never use your name in vain
But you should know everything I'm being asked to explain
"I know you stole from your mothers purse"
You can't count that, that was way back when
"It's still a sin," But I was ten
"You robbed people, stolen," Yea, and you made me see jail
"But I also seen you lay your hands on a female,
Sold drugs to parents, none of that was needed
Abandoned your child, on every girl you cheated
Done wrong to people that only want the best for you
Anytime you thought you were alone, I was right next to you"
When it comes to baby moms, God you gave me the worst one,
"But that was your second child, you shouldn't of killed the first one"
I ain't have a job, ain't have a pot to piss in,
"Look I gave you a gift, and you made the wrong decision
Held on to resentments, even in doing business
I lead by example, I teach forgiveness
Your entry, can not be guaranteed
Not when you live with Anger, Envy, Greed
Pride, Sloth, Lust, even Gluttony
Everything you shouldn't, if you would of joined my company"
Look I'm only human I ain't perfect "That I understand
When I take you out a jam, you don't even think to worship
And when you do, you never talk about what you can do for me
Just what I can do for you
I blessed you with health, family, and wealth
With all the blessings you've received, you still always want help"
Yea there's been times in my life, I need help to make money
But why everything I love, you manage take from me
Yet you still there and to question a nigga that tries hard
And finds a way when you keep dealing him fucked up cards
You make mistakes like me, far as I can see
I think its a mockery whenever rich niggas win the lottery
Gave us Bush twice, God I hate to be rude,
But you let skinny niggas starve, give obese niggas food,
The nerve when you telling me, I don't deserve to stay here
When you gave us drugs, and guns, you put AIDs here
Take a look at you, yo actions are cold-hearted
The hard shit is you bring babies in the world retarded
I know most my actions put me in a cell
But how you mad at me, when you put me into hell
"See my child, you need gratitude, maybe just a sample
I never give a person, anything they can't handle
Don't tell me about everything you've had to go through
There's reasons for my actions, even if I never showed you
Keep trying with you, all you did was hurt me
Still gave you chances to prove that you were worthy
And so I sat with you on a train, I asked you for change
You kept callin' me names
Probably didn't notice, I was the store clerk
You put the gun to me, get money for more work
My child, I know you have it in you to indeed stop
This is not your final callin', just a brief stop
Hope you heed my words and understand
So when I see you back, you should be a better man
Look at life different, the next time we see each other
There'll be no need to talk, whenever we meet each other"

The biggest thorn in the Samsung LE40C650’s side is the high amount of input lag that it suffers from. With Game Mode enabled, the video signal being input to the LCD HDTV lagged by about 45ms, which is enough to make games requiring fast reflexes feel quite sluggish on the TV. For example, aiming in first person shooters was considerably more difficult than on a display lagging by half this amount. It’s possible that enough time spent playing games on a laggy display will allow the user to compensate to some extent, but they will still be at a disadvantage in online games.
Game Mode on the Samsung LE40C650 naturally disables some extra processing in an attempt to speed up video display, so 10-point White Balance correction and of course, Motion Plus, are disabled in this mode (although the colour management system is still active). Without Game Mode enabled, the amount of input lag was around 95ms, which is very high indeed. These figures are actually a step backwards from previous Samsung LCD TVs.
Anyone got any suggestions?

Why is that. Really, what got done closing that topic? Was anybody offended by it? Doubt it. You closed it because you didn't see a point in it, despite people continuing to talk in it for two days straight. Was it because it brought nothing to the board and was going offtopic (your opinion, but couldn't be farther from the truth; it was the official stoner discussions thread for fucks sake, it stayed pretty ontopic in that respect), or was it because your name was being dragged through the mud and you couldn't handle it? No harm was being brought about by that topic, and it looks like it could've been a platform for some funny/ridiculous discussion, so why was it closed?

Friday was crazy; saw Lostprophets, Biffy Clyro where there were some bitchin' moshpits for some reason, got right to the front for Queens of the Stone Age and Guns N' Roses. Queens were fuckin' awesome and Guns, despite coming on an hour late were just..mental. Fucking blew my mind.
Saturday was even better; Zebrahead, Crystal Castles, Enter Shikari and Pendulum. Cant fucking get over how good Pendulum were, still buzzing from them. And sat night was brilliant, got blind drunk with some friends and found some guy with a radio on his shoulder and started a moving rave, dancing around all the campsites gathering a following of 30-40 people.
Sunday was less good; saw Limp Bizkit though wasn't in the crowd for them which I'm pissed off about. Saw Paramore and Blink 182 in the evening though who were gooood (though got bored of Blink and went to see British Sea Power instead). But oh my fucking god, best weekend of my life so far.
