My demon ep15 rant plus 2nd short review

So I still failed to recollect myself so I decide to rant and share some info😅

So apparently it's the same cinematographer from goblin

And he was like let's make 2.0 of this traumatic event😂

Next is my question to writernim so why is it the Xmas in my demon is so far away like in ep16..????

I mean it's so long that from ep13 till ep16 ..like why Xmas so late😂😂

As for gu won..althought he abandon do hee but he still secretly come back to take care of her..but it's just was not right for me..like just be there man.

But I thought he also suffer too as he can only care and not able to express his thoughts

Plus it's hit me when do hee said the more she loved him, the more she suffered really make me think maybe that's the only way things could happen the way that are.

And she said she the one letting go..

Does not sit right with me😭😭coz I just think that gu won abandon him😅

And the kiss

The forgotten saving kiss..I can't believe I forgot about this kiss..the afterward of the kiss shocked me that I forgot about it

Because of the chaos ness of reunion, died, kiss and died again.

So regarding the finale for today..I wonder what makes do hee get up on herself and become a chairwomen again.

Coz clearly she devastated and also hospitalized .

I hope it's guwon who cams back and heal her which I thought that's going to be impossible as he's gone forever

Plus she also make a wish afterward which I think will concise in the ultimate question of what her father wishes is (maybe) coz spoiler alert we will know what is the deal do hee father made with palwon/guwon on finale which I think will bring guwon back (maybe) althought the deal already finished

But heck yeah let's just find out today

So yup let's wait for pre release so I can continue my rabbit hole of the unknown😂😅😭

Movie 24. I can't believe I've almost watched all the movies at this point. I don't know anything about this movie and going in blind!

What an interesting way to start the movie. If we're seeing America though, I'm guessing this will be an Akai focused movie? I could be wrong though.

They put Shinichi in pants. We know he loves shorts. Free the legs.

So the Olympics are known as World Sports Games. Is the name the olympics trade marked or something?

Is this a mistranslation? I assume so as they should be considered to be seven years old. Gosho doesn't let time pass. At most Shinichi has turned from sixteen to seventeen.

Sonoko may have told her parents she's not interested in taking over the family name in canon but it's nice to see that she is still serious in representing her family. I think she'd make a fine chairwomen.

While I don't appreciate the jabs at Genta and making his character only focus on food, I do like he managed to help the investigation this time around. Shinichi has taught the children well, sniff everything.

Akai having the professors house bugged is so funny. I know one of the reasons is so he can keep Ai safe, but I also like think he knows Shinichi well and his inability to talk to others and ask for help so he needs the bugs to hear what he has to say because there is one who he shares everything with which is the professor.

OH! Sera got an introduction in this movie! Nice!

Sonoko is so kind T-T I love her.

Sera is always so pretty. Ran has great taste in women.

The parentification of Ran makes me upset. She's changing a grown man's t-shirt for him. She doesn't need too, he's capable of changing himself, but she's so used to being the mother she does so without thinking.

This movie is showing us that Ran and Shinichi can work together with one another and plan together. She. Should. Know.

Oh, so Shinichi is aware that Akai will kill and he protested against it.

NEVERMIND. Shinichi does not trust Ran. And is stupid enough to make her think he will be there. And Shinichi, you should be able to share your feelings with your "girlfriend", it's weird you or her can never do so. It's almost like they don't exist.

Kogoro actually parented Shinichi? Nope, nevermind, it was probably Ran who did so.

And he's also lying to Ai now. Shinichi, can you please respect the women in your lives, especially when they're just as capable as you and even more so in certain areas (i.e. Ran's ability to defend herself is much greater than Shinichi's and Ai is incredibly knowledgable in other areas that Shinichi and knows his targets better than he does).

Yumi and Shukichi are cute.

Sorry, I see Sera, I screenshot. Although can I talk about how bad a parent Mary is? Because she is for letting her daughter do something so dangerous for her, much like she does in canon.

Ai: Shinichi, escape and save our lives.

And Shinichi completely ignores her because he DOES NOT TRUST WOMEN. Is he a misogynist? I'm really starting to believe he is. Or the writers are and they project that onto Shinichi.

Good on Ai, taunt Shinichi for ignoring you when you knew what was happening in this situation.

Okay, it is cool to see Akai and Sera fight with one another. We don't get to see Sera fight often.

Why are Mary and Sera beating up Akai though?! They just let the culprit get away.

He didn't call you because he doesn't trust women but Ran is also his possession so he needs her to know that from time to time :) (Sorry, I am angry about the writing so far).

Pretty girl!

Being drop-dead gorgeous runs in the family.

Shukichi, as adorable as Yumi is being and I know that she does want to marry you, she is currently drunk and can't accept the proposal.

Shinichi's special. Smelling.

So Shinichi's watch has UV now.

He looks so amazing. It's not fair.

Sera looked so unimpressed at Shinichi lying to Ran and then she tried to press that it was Conan who knew the truth. She's totally on the side of Ran knowing.

Akai actually had a silver bullet made. I guess he's not like Vermouth who believes Shinichi to be a silver bullet.

...Well, that is not how Shukichi expected for Yumi to meet his family.

This movie: America is shit.

Honestly, great criticism.

I can't believe Shinichi just answered the phone just to hang up on Ran <.< He has no respect for her or her concern for him at all.

Poor Camel, he doesn't get the cool line weight added to his design.

Not only does she look great but she's also calling Shinichi out. This is why we love her.

The Akai family, minus Mary, are showing off why they're so great as characters. We love them.

Ran, please worry about your girlfriend as well.

LMAO I do love Sera calling out the stupid decision to make Shinichi shout Ran in movies.

This is why we like Akai, he actually trusts people.

Shinichi seems to have learned how to trust during the course of this movie. Not entirely, but he is.

Fucking cool.

Shinichi, really owes his life to the professor and his inventions.

I really wish that Sera's name was also being called out. She is just as much as Ran's friend and she should be extremely worried for her as well. Her life is in danger as well.

Oh now her name has been called out. A bit late in my opinion.

He won't kill but I wonder what will happen when he's placed in a role where he has too.

I can't state enough how much I adore their friendship. Platonic soulmates.

Ran, where is Sera's hug? She deserves one too.

Mary. You have NO RIGHT to threaten Akai for almost hurting Sera. You PUT HER IN THIS SITUATION. I assume that's who she's talking about. Unless she's talking about Shinichi and then that's even worse.

LMAO Yumi.

One day, Liam accidentally bumped into Gretta

@liam-and-co-fatty-zone (I couldn't think of a good starter)

“Why hello there, have we met, my name is Geeta chairwomen of the Pokémon league here in paldea”

[monterraverde]

Back in Saffron, there’s a change- Mystical, almost childlike and playful, but with a sinister undertone.

The hotel had been relatively quiet the last few days- What with one half of the Paldean chairwomen off on another grand adventure, but something grew restless… and perhaps only the most keen of psychics could feel it, but within the walls of the building, something stirred.

“Geeta?”

Ⲱⲏⲉⲅⲉ ⲁⲅⲉ ⲩⲟⳙ? Ⲱⲏⲩ ⲁⲅⲉ ⲩⲟⳙ ⲛⲟⲧ ⲏⲟⲙⲉ ⲩⲉⲧ? Ⳕ ⲙⳕ⳽⳽ ⲩⲟⳙ…

It’s Rikas voice, her same intonation and accent, perfectly normal in every way. The elite raps at the door with her knuckle a few times, and when the door finally opens, there she is, looking a little tired, but smiling brightly and happy.

“I’m back! Sorry, that took way longer then I thought it would. We’re supposed to be leaving soon, sorry if I worried you. Come on, lets start getting packed up.”

No one ever thought that the extraordinary investment in families on the wrong side of digital opportunities would be winding down. And doing so at a time when more than 20 million eligible families have finally found affordable options to connect to remote work, distance learning, health care, and for greater connections to family members, and civil society. As of December 2023, 9.9 million participants of the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) were using the $30.00 per month discount toward fixed, or home broadband; 12 million for wireless services; and just under one percent on something else, like fixed wireless or satellite, according to ACP enrollment data. But last month, in response to the lack of a congressional reallocation of money and with funds dwindling, Chairwomen Jessica Rosenworcel of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) penned a letter about the program’s fate and informed Congress that, on February 8, 2024, that the agency would start freezing new ACP enrollments. Meanwhile, states are steadily preparing to deploy federally subsidized, broadband deployments in areas that will be highly dependent on having subscribers for new and expanded assets. What the end of the ACP means for pending infrastructure, and the range of stakeholders from subscribers to community organizations has yet to be fully considered.

The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), one of many parts of the national effort to accelerate broadband as part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, was established to address one of the contributing factors to the U.S. digital divide — monthly affordability of services. The initial $14 billion that once sounded like a generous investment toward these concerns is now expected to run out, prompting the FCC’s efforts to wind down the ACP. After a year of predictions that high enrollments would lead to this moment, Congress has finally started to take notice. On January 10, a bipartisan, bicameral group of legislators introduced the Affordable Connectivity Program Extension Act to provide temporary relief of $7 billion from Treasury funds. This bill would allocate $1 billion more than the White House proposed to Congress in 2023 and would not change the current ACP rules, which could upset some Republican hardliners already concerned about program eligibility who want to toughen the rules.

Over 400 organizations, including national and local entities, internet service providers (ISPs), trade associations, and labor unions, have demonstrated their support for this new legislative proposal, and this all makes sense given the interests of these stakeholders, who are concerned about impacted populations and/or the ramifications on the broadband marketplace should the program abruptly end.

Saving the ACP should be based on what has become a known fact: being connected to the internet really matters in an increasingly digital society. Access to high-speed broadband has become a critical social determinant of well-being, especially when connectivity promotes equitable economic and social outcomes for users and their families. The ACP also is critical to the achievement and sustainability of the much-anticipated broadband infrastructure goals, which will benefit both red and blue states.

The Broadband Equity and Deployment Program (BEAD) is run out of the U.S. Department of Commerce and is currently reviewing and approving state plans to accelerate internet access, particularly in areas that have been under- or un-served by current facilities. The program has been allocated about $45 billion to further such deployments and contextualize digital equity programs to incent people to use them. Because of the focus on fiber, small and medium-sized providers are likely leveraging the funding for their buildouts. But without more certain subscribership, these companies could experience extreme financial consequences that lead to a range of outcomes — some even resulting in bankruptcies. Over the years, there have been some precedents around this correlation between supply and demand. Early efforts to build municipally-owned broadband networks struggled to find the appropriate level of solvency after huge sunk costs and debt loads, according to Christopher Yoo. In the end, some cities, contractors, and subs learned the hard way as they frontloaded huge amounts of cash and credit and believed the government would anchor their business models. Instead, many experienced the opposite and learned in the early days of municipal broadband about the importance of having healthy financial conditions on both the supply and demand sides for network revenues and sustainability.

The business realities may not be too far off in states with higher rates of poverty where the additional savings of the ACP have proven beneficial to constituents. For example, three states with the highest percentages of poverty in the United States are Mississippi, Louisiana, and West Virginia. Combined, almost one million people are currently enrolled in ACP in these states, according to recent FCC data, and that has translated into more than $25 million in household savings for them due to having an affordable and seamless high-speed broadband connection. These states with higher national poverty are expected to receive over one billion in BEAD funding each, which could contribute to lower costs for consumers, and the businesses, as well as organizations, that serve them. But without the ACP or a consumer-driven subsidy to support the broadband marketplace, existing and new broadband providers, cash-strapped customers, and surrounding businesses depending on the connectivity for economic gain all lose in one or many ways.

Then there are the concerns focused on the losses of the companies that are providing low-cost broadband solutions when the ACP ends. New Street Research completed a financial evaluation on one of the participating ISPs. Charter Communications has more than 4 million ACP, fixed broadband subscribers currently. The research findings showed that some of their customers — particularly those who knew that their ACP subsidy was not permanent — may be fine, while others will be severed from their connections due to the returning concern of affordability. And it is highly likely that this will impact other ISPs servicing the ACP, who may also have to decide on the future of the lower cost tier, which was not only bringing in new customers, but also allowing for operational expansion in areas such as customer service, accounting, or compliance.

Added to those who will lose if the ACP ends are national and community-based organizations who have advanced the digital equity movement and have made plans for digital literacy programming that are dependent on ACP enrollments. Various groups are leveraging home broadband to support their programs geared toward homework help, virtual health care, public benefits and housing recertification, community-building, workforce training and re-entry, and will be greatly impacted if the program is not temporarily or permanently restored. One of the older national, digital equity organizations, Connected Nation, has worked to connect more people to the internet in some of the more rural parts of the Midwest, and is an organization that started a few years after I entered this space in the late nineties. In their recent statement about the ACP, they summarized the sentiments of many national and community organizations facing the end of ACP: “This vital program, which significantly lowers monthly internet bills for millions of struggling Americans, is a key lifeline to online work and education opportunities that will suddenly vanish later this spring if Congress fails to act.” In the end, these groups understand the daily decisions that individuals and their families must make between having broadband and bread – despite the former driving a path toward social mobility.

Right now, the ball is in the court of Congress to act or not on the viability of internet subsidies for families who need them most. From the accounts of current research and public reporting on the impact of a shutdown, there is largely agreement that it is not a partisan program — subscribers from all geographies, and backgrounds are enrolled, including those in urban and rural America. But it will be, if this effective strategy to tackle the decades-long challenge of making the internet affordable in the backdrop of more available broadband assets fails to see sunlight beyond its pending expiration.

The FCC & The Importance Of Net Neutrality

By Tommaso (Tommy) Ceccuzzi, Marymount University Class of 2023

November 22, 2022

The Federal Communication Committee (“FCC”) is tasked with three major policy objectives: competition, diversity, and localism. The FCC dates back to 1934, when it was created and adopted by Congress as part of the Federal Communications Act, which is the base for all telecommunications regulation today. The committee is composed and headed by 5 commissioners, all nominated by the President of the United States and confirmed by the US Senate. As of now the members are as follows: Geoffrey Starks, Brendan Carr, Nathan Simington, and the Chairwomen Jessica Rosenworcel.  While the 5th member has been chosen by President Biden (Gigi Sohn), the Senate has not yet voted on Gigi Sohn.

In December 2017, the FCC voted “to repeal the 2015 Open Internet Order, i.e., the Obama-era regulation requiring the companies to treat all web traffic alike.”[1] This is the essence of “net neutrality”:  equal treatment of all websites, without the internet provider being able to favor certain websites (for example those of services affiliated with it) over others (for example, those of the competition).

The confirmation of Gigi Sohn is important because she would be the tiebreaking vote to pass and reverse the 2017 “deregulation of the broadband industry”, so “restor[ing] net neutrality rules”[2], which are being opposed by the Republican commissioners.

It is highly anticipated that with Gigi Sohn’s confirmation, Internet Service Providers (ISP) would be reclassified as Title II carriers, signifying a restoration that has been missing since the Obama administration.

While Gigi Sohn had been nominated for over one year, for a variety of reasons (including pressure of corporate interests), it has not been possible to confirm her yet. If the Democrats have a broader majority in the Senate, her nomination should quickly be turned into an appointment. "We now believe it is likely that a third Democratic commissioner joins the [Federal Communications] Commission, either through a vote in the lame-duck session (in which case it will be the current nominee Gigi Sohn) or sometime in the first few months of 2023," the New Street analysts wrote in a recent report to investors.[3]

Net neutrality should be kept and be continuously pushed for as it keeps in the internet free and open. Many federal courts of appeals have ruled that net neutrality offers economic growth and is “essential for innovation”.[4] In a way, net neutrality directly correlates with the 1st Amendment of the Constitution, as it stands for Freedom of Expression. It prevents ISPs from blocking content on the internet and protects free speech, as without ISPs can block content, they do not wish consumers to see. In fact, in January 2022 a “Ninth Circuit ruled unanimously in January 2022 that California's net neutrality law may continue to be enforced and cannot be overridden by the FCC as, current as of the decision, Internet services were classified as information services. The trade groups abandoned the case against the law by May 2022.”[5]
