To be honest I thought you had some interesting points in your original post but now you seem like a bit of a dick. Calm your temper a bit and you won't deflect attention from the content of your post.

Ooo, snappy snappy, just like a crocodile! I'm sorry if I misinterpreted the quotes you put around "inventor of the internet" but there's no need to spit the dummy!

Tim Berners-Lee didn't invent the internet, he is credited with inventing the World Wide Web.

I'm still using a Nokia 3310. 'What? Call yourself a geek and you don't have a smart phone?' I hear you ask...

Well I quite like the idea that when I leave the office I'm NOT AT WORK any more. I'm still contactable if anyone wants to TXT/call me and I'm rarely more than 10mins away from a WiFi connection if I really need one (I have a Nexus 7 which is on me most of the time).

I also take perverse pleasure when I try calling someone on their iPhone and they hang up on me only to TXT me back to say their mic has been playing up and they can't currently receive calls.

I also ski and paraglide quite a lot and need a phone that's going to work in an emergency, potentially after a big fall...

I know I'll have to replace it eventually but it's doing fine for what I need right now.

Sorry, mis-moderated...

Completely agree, I would add to point 2 that once he'd uploaded to enough peers (now seeds) there was no point in continuing to seed.

Having said that he may have been convicted on his sale of physical copies, which makes him a complete douche.

The most dangerous animal in the world (statistically speaking) is a horse. Just saying...

First Korean in space?!? One of these stories must be wrong then...

Probably can't be 100% sure but there are tell-tale signs such as never supplying a HTTP referrer or User Agent.

In England Guy Fawkes was much more considerate in trying to blow up parliament on the 5th of November.

FYI, here are some opinions of other paraglider pilots on the subject of flying with R/C models.

This is mainly about soaring with full r/c than follow-drones which would presumably have a more predictable flight path, so not exactly the same situation but I'd still imagine speedrider pilots having problems with this because they are often well below the 400ft AGL height limit.

Or a drone hitting a chairlift? Even if nobody is hurt you'd still investigate, the next time you might not be so lucky...

Exactly, thinking about ski resorts the chances of your drone hitting a ski lift could cause the lift to shut down (temporarily) so I'd imagine the resorts banning them anywhere near a piste. Also I'd have thought the chances of a downed drone(s) garotting someone are fairly high.

In many Alpine ski resorts there are a lot of paraglider and speedrider pilots (of which I am one, in Chamonix).

Although we're not allowed to fly directly above pistes I can imagine these drones being very popular off-piste (i.e backcountry) where we often paraglide. A collision with an untethered drone *probably* wouldn't be too dangerous assuming the rotor blades are surrounded with a shroud but if it were tethered to the skier/boarder then the likelihood of it becoming tangled is quite high and could easily cause major problems for the paraglider pilot.

Luckily Chamonix is a very traditional resort so I'd expect these drones to be banned anywhere near the piste and (hopefully) off-piste as well, however it would be almost impossible to police off-piste!

Don't forget the Terramax.
