We're talking about a model airplane here, smaller than a lot of hobbyists are already flying on a routine basis. Why in the world would they even be talking to the FAA about it?
Because punishing people for reading the wrong websites will work.
Don't confuse his stated goal with his actual goal. By establishing a government power to punish people for wrongthink in this highly unpopular activity of looking at head-chopping goatfucker web sites, the power becomes available to punish people for opposing the government in any way at all.
Goes to show that even the most ostensibly eminent law professor can get basic constitutional questions wrong. There is no such thing as crimethink in American law.
The first amendment argument is that I have the right to communicate in a language of my choosing, which may include a sequence of numbers that the government can't understand.
The UI clusterfuck of Windows 8 proves that they still don't have a clue....and all previous versions of Windows prove that they never had one in the first place.
Many years ago, I remember hearing about a project to identify mechanical problems by audio recognition. The idea was that a computer could listen to an engine and tell whether a cylinder was misfiring, for example. I wonder whatever came of that?
I don't get daily crashes or power losses where I live. Do you?
My usual work flow is to copy my project from the SSD to the RAM disk in the morning, work on it and commit changes periodically to my local Git repo. If I were paranoid like you apparently are, I could just add a commit action upon every successful build.
Start automatically bouncing every report to their abuse address?
Yep. As it stands now, you're the one being inconvenienced.

So, you're suggesting that schools will improve if unions can steal even more money to buy more hookers and blow for politicians and mobsters?
Sounds legit.
-jcr
Depends on which country you're talking about.
-jcr
the unions, if anything, are too weak, not too strong.
Bullshit. The unions fight tooth and nail against any improvements in public schooling.
-jcr
That's the long and short of it. Until and unless we get competition in primary schooling, poor kids are going to keep getting ignored.

It has multiple motors in each pod, so losing one wouldn't take a prop out of service. Losing a prop blade, on the other hand...

Who's Kylo Ren? Is he Darth Stimpy's friend?
-jcr
He's teaching a yoga class at Tatooine Community College, and selling "Jedi Force Crystals" on the Trade Federation shopping channel.

Free trade will seek out a local maximum of *PROFITS*.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
See Enron.
Enron was brought down by the market despite the efforts of their political cronies to prop them up.

I'm sick to death of these assholes who believe they can "run the economy". NOBODY knows enough to produce better results than free trade.

First amendment, motherfucker. If the government doesn't want me to use strong encryption, they can go pound sand up their asses.

Personally, I sill like the term "commie rat bastard".

FineSwine is more accurately described as a bottom-feeding scumbag.
The great tragedy of Harvey Milk's assassination is that FineSwine was able to milk it to get a senate nomination.

Microsoft is selling more tablets than Apple
The bullshit meter just bent the needle. On what do you base this claim?

I disagree. Pao's incompetence was blatantly obvious very shortly into her stint at Kleiner-Perkins.

Do you know who uses the term SJW?
I do. Go fuck yourself.

That sounds like it, but I recall it was also supposed to listen for things like bearings going bad, loose belts, etc.

If you want faster compiles, put your sources and your build folder on a RAM disk. For me, it shortens five minute builds to 30 seconds or less.
