I don't think that's exactly right, Amazon wouldn't loose the license to the software (the BSD), but they would loose any Facebook patent license that ReactJs is potentially infringing, and then Facebook would sue back on those patents. Source.
Still seems a risk and I think Apache made the right choice banning this license.

The problem of course is that for an 11+ hour flight you need to recharge the fscking phone now, and you can't use the fscking Lightning port for the in-flight entertainment.

It seems you are having a hardware failure if you need to run fsck that ofter, you should make a backup soon and replace your hard drive.
Or maybe you're flying too high (possibly out of the atmosphere) and being exposed to space radiation, in which case you need proper electromagnetic shielding for your devices and your body.

The only valuable feature for the future or humanity:

Text from Joe: Yo dude, what's up man, lets hang out. {system: no vibrate/ring/anything} Auto-Text: I'm in a frigging movie right now, don't disturb me because I don't want to annoy the hundred people behind me.

What's the advantage over this?:

Me (2 hours later): I was in a frigging movie before, I didn't answered then because I didn't want to annoy the hundred people behind me.

Comment Re:System Shock 2? (Score 1) 106

I agree in that System Shock has clumsy controls. But why do you say that about others? From Quake (1996) until recently all FPSs have had standardized and pretty good controls.
Today FPSs are awfully optimized for consoles and are unbearably boring, you'll end up with this: https://youtu.be/W1ZtBCpo0eU

If what you're saying were true, when people upload hollywood blockbuster movies to youtube with the usual silly background and overlaid lens flares / permutations to the image (so they can get around the auto DMCA youtube filters) it's now legal, because they moved the picture around a bit and cut open a bit of the image.

Doubt it works that way...

Ah, you saw JJ's Star Trek too?
