    panic in an enclosed space. if it hadn't been detected on the ground, panic in an enclosed space 30k feet in the air. what's the imminent danger of somebody shouting ebola on a crowded bus? That's not protected either.

    I prefer FreedomPop. $75/yr for unlimited/unlimited/500mb, with extra GB being $25 per. Or, unlimited/unlimited/unlimited for $20/mo with first GB on 4g then the rest on 3G. Those are pretty sweet deals.

    well the govt has laws against speech that incites danger or violence. These laws are constitutional, say the supremes. They ruled in the 60's that speech that can be reasonably expected to cause imminent danger is not protected by the constitution. so go ahead and do what you want but sux for you if you get arrested.

  5. what does it mean scores of hectares? [checks google]

    For the 'mericuns, one score hectare is 49 acres. for the people who insist on SK/mks, one score hectare is 200,000 m^2. For the left-brain thinkers, there are 17 score hectares in Central Park in NYC or 64 football fields in one score hectare.

    YEAH BUT INTERPRETATION IS 9/10 OF THE LAW. just ask scalia who basically makes it up as he goes along. those people are the true dictators because they're in office for life and can wreak havoc like amok. all of them are gangsters: scalia, Sotomayor, Thomas. the others are ok.

    I think what's fair is that the constitution does have an interstate commerce clause, and if you think about it, all commerce is interstate in some way because some ingredients may be from other states or something else. so everything is constitutional probably.

    you seem to think that free speech means you can spout your mouth off whenever you want. I know that free speech means protection from unreasonable government interference. I got news for you, you keep spouting your mouth off and somebody's gonna bop you in the nose, and the government isn't going to interfere with that, either.

    wow 10GB+ a month, is she watching Netflix or a lot of youtube on there? If 3g speeds would work, I suggest FreedomPop. you get unlimited* for $20/mo, where unlimited means 1st GB 4g and remaining GB 3g. Or get a wifi repeater?

    I have a "OneDrive for Business" folder on my desktop. Presumably if I put a file in this folder it will sync to be online, then I can access it online from any computer. But does it sync automatically or is it a manual thing? Dropbox syncs pretty much every 5 minutes or whenever there's a file update. Also on dropbox there are past versions available online. Is this true for OneDrive?

    trolling has its place, but making jokes about terrorism on a crowded airplane is not the place to do it. That's just common sense. At least the plane was on the ground at the time so it didn't have to be diverted.

    Or maybe you also think that it's funny to be doxxing women who speak out on cultural issues, because panicky people are fun to watch.

    my work has office 365 accounts and i'll be darned if I can get sky drive sync to work. it doesn't seem like its' a replacement for dropbox or sync.com.

    BTW I highly recommend sync.com. It has the same feature set as dropbox, but it's a Canadian company and doesn't have condi on the board. I'm not naïve, I know that FBI/NSA will git you wherever you are, but seriously eff dropbox they can kma.

    I think the key point is to decouple the content from the last mile network. when a house can choose between different cable suppliers and different internet suppliers, that's when the competition happens.

    moar deets: up to 25 'internal testers', where internal is "Get feedback quickly by sharing your beta builds with up to 25 members of your team who have been assigned the Technical or Admin role in iTunes Connect. Each member can test on up to 10 devices." Up to 1,000 external testers, but to make it to external testing the beta must be vetted "Apps made available to external testers require a Beta App Review and must comply with the full App Store Review Guidelines before testing can begin".

    So it's not a panacea but it could be a release valve for some small or internal developers.
