Amazon doesn't NOT ALLOW their content on any Roku device outside of the USA.

Amazon is a problem.

Unless you're in Canada. No Amazon Prime video app is available for Canadians, hasn't been despite the service being released a year ago. It's as if Amazon doesn't want me to watch their video stream?

'Cept they didn't do that with Roku in Canada, nor Chromecast.

Yup. Amazon prime in Canada is lack-luster. Time to re-think my subscription. It's as it they don't want me to watch their video service.

Did you know Amazon refuses to release a Roku app for their Prime Video service in Canada? For over a year since they "rolled out" Amazon Prime video to Canadians? The US folk have an App, but not Canadians (and maybe many other regions? Dunno).

Who's the dickweed again?

Except if you are in Canada. We just got Prime Video a year ago. Amazon WILL NOT release a Roku app in Canada (it's not Roku, it's Amazon that provides the app). So, no Chromecast support, no Roku support. It seems Amazon doesn't want me to watch their service. Fine.

I'm not buying a FireTV device.

Not sure I can support Amazon Prime anymore.

Oh, wait... Never mind...

There isn't any legal reason that prevents you from opening it up. Just do it.

Apple is exerting a concept that doesn't legally exist.

Maybe a new second master override code can be provided to the flight attendants during an incident (via air-phone with ground control) that completely override the pilots lock would cover this issue. There would have to be a risk-assessment on the ground in order to provide this code. Although I'm not sure if there is enough time to do this (8 minutes?).

Then you have something wrong with your 2012 Nexus 7. Mine (WiFi model) takes I'd guess less than 4 hours to change, and can last days and days. More than a week sitting idle.

Make sure you're using the included high capacity charger, otherwise it will take a day to change.

Unions are a viral problem. Way too much control over politics.

Remove "union" backing from this and I'll start listening, until then, their on my "ignore list".
