The fuck happened, I thought SOPA didn't make it. <_<

Apparently a lot of sites are scared from the Megaupload thing and are turning off their sharing.

VERY inconvinient for me. Spartacus Vengeance is starting the 27th! And it won't be aired in Sweden then, and when I finally can buy a DVD for it, that'll probably be in another year. I don't want to wait that long for it! Spassing out as it is. I need it naao.

I don't watch TV much tbh. That's mostly since there isn't anything WORTH watching.
I have a grudge with iTunes too. Half my songs disappeared from my iPod, and the sync tool is frankly AWFUL, no simple way to get songs in. And it doesn't save what songs you bought, so if I want to get the dozen albums that were on my iPod before it wiped, I'd have to pay them again.
No wonder people pirate.
I'll still buy games though, and DVDs in store.

Check if EZTV will have it. Generally they have the torrents in a few hours.

I'm really tempted to dish out the coinage and just sub to a usenet. fast speeds means more pron

Just listen to someone screaming COCKTITSFUCK on repeat, same thing.

So... Move to Scotland :3

I'm confident it'll be less that. Mainly due to Batiatus death in the last season. And Varo's. The only one left who'd remotely be extreme is Crixus. Maybe Duron, but he's not that extreme so all's fine. Not that I care, that's your issue. I love the show.

I don't watch TV that often. I -do- watch History of Metal on the Swedish channel 1 (I think it was?), or go to TV6 to watch Family Guy when Im bored. Otherwise, I download How I met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, Walkind Dead, etc. Most TV shows are trash anyway.

Is alking dead the one with the rednecks and the zombies? If it is, it sucks. I sat on the couch and told my mother exactly what they would do next, AND IT ALL HAPPENED. o_o It's so obvious.

Spoiler:

The first season was decent, afterwards it just sucked so damn hard. God damn I want my time back.

I really like the Season 2, imo. They really take the emotional level to 11.

SPOILER ALERT!

The story is pants. XD I only watch it when my mother does, and I spend the whole time telling her I think will happen next!

And there was hardly any progression at all in my mind. The emotional shit wasn't really well done if you ask me. I want it to be more thrilling or at least half as well done as Breaking Bad, but not this.

Wasn't PIPA to appear in the senate today.

Although with SOPA/PIPA now being very widely known and fought against, I doubt anyone's going to dare pushing it during an election year.

SOPA and PIPA have both been postponed. Not dropped entirely (afaik) but postponed (for the forseeable future). This was even stated on the other page (before the talk of Walking Dead!).

And yeah, they a political plague on whoever touches them in their current format.

As for Walking Dead. The comic was good, lost its way, got better. But was never, really, great. The TV show limped to it's 1st series conclusion (whilst dribbling and saying "braaaaaaaaaaaaaains" obviously). The 2nd series I failed to watch after the 1st episode. There's far too many of the survivors I'd happily see as Zombie food...

Btw, we need to move the focus of this thread to ACTA. And get stuff done with that even worse shit.

Instead of talking about a sorta crappy TV show.

And both SOPA and PIPA have been retracted for now at least.

I find it pretty hard to be against ACTA as there's very little information on it and still under negociation.

I am however against none transparent negociations behind closed doors. This is rather unacceptable. (I believe that's also illegal.) It's always a bit disturbing that a law like this can be binding when none of the nation's parliaments are involved.

From what I've read though, ACTA cannot be introduced without the agreement from the European Parliament. This might still take a very long while

http://keionline.org/sites/default/files/acta_aug25_dc.pdf

that's the leaked document from sept 2010. sure there will have been some changes to it. but until the negotiations are public or the documents are publicised it it should be top priority to prevent this accord from happening.

all the middle-eastern and north-african countries didn't drop out of the negotiations for nothing...

the final agreement was finished on oktober 2011... and now its just needs to be ratified.

and the EC is one of the latest hurdles to take. i got bored and talked to three of my reps xD

Seems like they never give up.
