From their changelog, it seems that addons changed, does anyone know if current npm packages will still be usable? Also, good to see bnoorhuids in there.

About the terrorist threats, I was referring to, for example, if a terrorist group says "we are going to do ... if you publish that thing" (like what already happened), wouldn't that qualify as 'immediate violence'

Thanks for the explanation and the examples. I'm currently reading about hate speech cases and laws, definitely learning a lot. Apparently, even hate speech is protected as long as it is not thought to be the cause for an 'imminen

Well, for what I've read in the past hour or so, apparently free speech does not apply when the subject is of an offensive matter, but to be clear I have no idea where to draw the line. Do you have any better insight?

Because they've been operating for such a long time. If it were illegal they would have shut it down already.

I see, when it comes down to the jurisdiction of the US the exceptions are clear enough. I see that Charlie Hebdo would have been in a lot of legal trouble if they were based on the US then. I don't know why I've tought that the l

There are no benefits. That data is not meant for public research. The only benefit I see is the birth of a new giant monopoly business centered on genomic therapies.

This is huge, it may not look like that but it is. Anyone know if this is legal? I'm pretty sure they already thought out their alibi, but this still could be a really messy subject. I'm also pretty sure that if they were honest a

To add something, I actually like Windows 8 and their Metro stuff. I have a 55' LED screen hooked to a PC that I use as my 'media center'. Metro looks gorgeous on it, most of the time I use it for playing music but it had pro

Apple's screwing it up with software. Too bad because they undoubtedly had the best OS ever. I remember seeing a few posts here and there where people complained about performance degrading each time they upgraded OS X. My last 3 lapto

You make a fair point, I said that just from an empirical standpoint. As in, at the beginning of 2014 only a couple people didn't want to use Facebook and mainly because of dissident/im-not-like-everybody-else reasons (i.e. everyb
