No, I use BeOS (until Haiku is ready) and I'm used to keepvid.com and other hacks, then VLC to play the flv, but that's still not how it's supposed to be.
Why do people always forget OSes like BeOS, Haiku, AROS... ?
BFS might be specially SSD optimized, but it uses extents (does ext3 finally support them ? oh wait, no that'll be in ext4!) (maybe the allocator can be tuned to allocate aligned extents for SSD), xattrs in the inode when they fit, logging, and 64bit right away of course;)
And Haiku doesn't run that many useless daemons also:D
he didn't use flash for the preview... It's a defacto DRM for those who don't have the plugin (yes there still are!):-(
Appart this it's a nice move, regardless if I ever buy it:-)
This suspiciously looks like the a limited edition of the "Global Licence" scheme that the french parliament started to legalized when transcripting the EUCD into DADVSI, before the government (illegally) withdrew it from the bill text...
At that time the culture minister said this was stupid and would never happen.
Yet it happens more and more as ISPs provide deals which allows subscribers to download music from their portal, though AFAIK all those are still under DRM, which really sucks.
It just needs to be generalized to get away with this DRM aberation.
ads for washing powder where you see dirty shirt, powder, water, and oh! it's clean:)
"you take the shirt, you put it in the water, you wash it you wash it... you riiiince, you riiince. you smell... it smells like a flower!
you take the underwear, you put it in the water, you wash it you wash it... you riiiince, you riiince. you smell... you put it in the water, you wash it you wash it...":)
Are you a red fish maybe ? with 3s of memory...
I use to use:
sleep 3m; beep; alert "the egg is cooked" "ok"
on BeOS... no need for voice recognition (use xmessage on linux)
Wow, it's amaizing ISPs don't publicize total degrouping in UK while it's been there in france for years...
I thought UK was all about free market and you still have a single operator visible ? how odd.
Firefox can keep a cookie, but what about all those apps doing http requests (wget, media players, apt-get...) without maintaining cookies ???
Those can't opt-out, so basically they are forcing that on you.
That's just plain discusting anyways.
No, they should be working on supporting other plaforms, or opensourcing flash, and also stop making people believe flash is better for every possible use.
It's still painful to have a nice blank page on BeOS and Haiku when you browse the web... (with the "skip flash" link embedded inside the swf itself of course...)
And having to use keepvid.com to download youtube like videos is painful.
It's just not the web how it was meant to be (cross-platform).

Well I'm part of the "few" that must suffer the disregard from the careless majority, so from my point of view it is bad.

Seems the video clips on the website are also in flash :-(

Don't they know about google and search engines anyway ?
I thought it would be about Internet Protocol or something else really useful. Bloody domain squatters!
Wait, those aren't websites actually, per definition anyway ;)
on websites using Flash ? (that doesn't get indexed by archive.org, and didn't until recently by google) :D
The only sensible option. Would be the perfect fit: http://embedded.hug-nordic.org/
sadly :-(
finish my port of XEmacs to BeOS and Haiku, and update the define of B_MAX_CPU_COUNT from 8 to 256 :)

a little "sequence shortened" white on white text, but it's still misleading, but eh, it's Apple ;)

Actually wget can use cookies, but you have to pass it a cookies file each time... so any script using it will miss the thing.
Firefox can keep a cookie, but what about all those apps doing http requests (wget, media players, apt-get...) without maintaining cookies ??? Those can't opt-out, so basically they are forcing that on you.

And stayed hidden for some years before getting public... http://www.ohloh.net/projects/ffmpeg/contributors/19252190931444 http://xine.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xine/xine-ui/doc/README_uk?revision=1.3&view=markup to avoid being bothered by software patents (despite them still being illegal in France and EU in general)
Plus it's not bound to X11 so it can even later be used on other OSes like Haiku ;)
