If you have opted in to use Html5 and website you visit uses iframe to embed YouTube videos you'll see the video without flashplugin. The codec used depends on the browser you are using:
Firefox and Opera will play the WebM version, Safari and IE9 will use h.264. I'm not sure what codec Chrome will prefer, but most likely WebM.
Dell might be selling preloaded Ubuntu machines but at least Dell UK makes it rather difficult to actually buy them. Basically you need to call sales rep, send them few emails, blog about how your emails just weren't answered and if you are lucky you get twitter name that might be able to help you in your quest. Not exactly the easiest shopping experience.
Well how about you redo the experiment and prove to the world that this security expert is wrong, from the pdf you can find how he captured the data:
Packet captures were recorded using tshark, the console-based libpcap capture utility. The resulting files were then analyzed using a suite of open-source tools including Wireshark, ngrep, and the Perl Net::Pcap libraries in order to determine what, if any, personally-identifiable information was being shared with third parties.
You don't see the problem because you didn't read the pdf:
For example, Amazon’s application communicates the logged-in user’s real name in plain text, along with the UDID, permitting both Amazon.com and network eavesdroppers to easily match a phone’s UDID with the name of the phone’s owner. The CBS News application transmits both the UDID and the iPhone device’s user-assigned name, which frequently contains the owner’s real name.
Yes rest of the world uses Nokia just happily, but I wonder why the North American market is so hard for them. Anyone got some insight on this? Is it carrier problem or some NIH syndrome as it was with Toyota acceleration problem only occurring at the USA?
I got the Humble Indie Bundle for my Ubuntu machine. All the games had different installers but they all worked just fine. If some small indie game developers can get their games working on Linux I can't see why big developers can't do the same. Something like quater of the sales came from Linux users despite it's not the platform any of the developers had in mind when they made their games.
If you want to test whether your favorite plugin will work at Firefox 4.0 b or not, do following: add new boolean entry at about:config named "extensions.checkCompatibility.4.0b" and set it to false. After that install your plugins and mostly they work just fine, if not nag to the plugin developer:)
Is there 64-bit flash 10.1 available on any platform yet? Paul Betlem (Sr. Director, Engineering at Adobe) writes at their blog: "We're working on 64-bit versions, but I'm unable to share a specific schedule at this point. We do understand the incredibly strong interest in its availability."
I can't read anywhere that they gona kill Linux version, or Solaris one for that matter.
Apparently Japanese are included in hoax too as seen here. We all know that USA had better cameras 40 years ago than Japan today, so hoax it is. I'm sorry but I don't know about Russians at Nevada at that time, or at least I won't tell you. Have a nice weekend.
I wonder why people always talk about possible life on Europa although for layman like me Ganymede seems better candidate: It's big as a planet, less radiation than Europa, molten iron core, water ocean, magnetosphere. All the good stuff and less of the bad.
Just install AutoPager and you get the article in one long page. You find performance per dollar at page 17 and other interesting nuggets of information well before that last page conclusion.
Here in Europe most countries changed their currency from something else to Euro lately. Learning new currency took some time but in the end the change from using one unit to another wasn't that painful, and it certainly didn't take decades to learn.
He has same pragmatic approach to the issue as you do. At his blog here he said:
everybody: my dad got himself a N900, so there's one in the family. Don't worry about it, there's room for more than one Linux phone.
I like the Nexus One, maybe I'd like the N900 too. But I certainly don't like cellphones enough to have two.
And also worth mentioning that their population is highly concentrated in a few areas. Like Alaska - very low density (very few people for a massive place), but 95% of the population is concentrated in Fairbanks, Anchorage, and Juneau. Much easier to roll out a technology.
.
For example, Finland. Just over 5 million people in that very large country, but 25% of them live in Helsinki urban area. Or Sweden, with 9.2 million people in that massive land area, but 30% of them in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmo urban areas.
Yet our mobiles work fine in the backwoods of North Karelia and hills of Lapland. See for example this coverage map and compare it to what ever you like.
Back in the days Symbian wasn't a pig, I had Nokia 7650, the first Symbian phone released, and it was everything nerd could hope for. For example I had universal TV control program there, so I could change the channels at my local sports bar at my will and cause mayhem if I wanted to. Later Symbian were locked up more tightly, but currently Maemo looks something I had back in the days + more. I will be using my tax refunds to get N900 and I think I wont regret it.

Do you have any reliable sources for your claim? F-secure says using the default settings your data is sent to Apple twice a day.

NFL football is more like a blend of chess and raw violence.
No, chess boxing is more like blend of chess and raw violence.

Well EA already pledged support for MeeGo platform so it's not that far fetched idea.

And where did they get their time machine from? Plot thickens.
Meanwhile in Finland you can have broadband connection even if you live in a cave and cellphone works everywhere.

MeeGo is supposed to be the result of merging Maemo and Moblin
Who named these platforms, a Lord of the Rings fan with a speech impediment?
Be happy they didn't name it M&M.

Two very bad news in the same day. Believe me, sometimes, it sucks to be French....
Just do another revolution. French history has lots of good examples how the common people rose to revolt against the tyrannical leaders.
Linux party has free beer, who cares where is held at.
It just proves some janitor smoked the original sample and replaced it with some random old chip from two-by-four plank.
