  1. Re:His 'role in the site' on Pirate Bay Co-Founder Peter Sunde Arrested In Sweden · · Score: 1

    What did gay sex do to you that you equate rape to it? Seriously, that's just perpetuation of rape culture, don't do that.

  2. Re:DRM: Closed-source only? on How Firefox Will Handle DRM In HTML · · Score: 1

    By the way, have there ever been open-source DRM solutions? I don't remember those.

  3. Re:How is this better than simply not supporting i on How Firefox Will Handle DRM In HTML · · Score: 1

    Admins of sites don't like themselves blamed. They will just hang a big sign saying "your browser can't support DRM, so switch to the one that does"

  4. Re:Fine for me. on How Firefox Will Handle DRM In HTML · · Score: 1

    They are basically making a sandbox for that thing, but without the proverbial sand. The CDM itself will be hosted at Adobe.

  5. Re:I don't like DRM either on How Firefox Will Handle DRM In HTML · · Score: 1

    Except it's streaming and not native playing - the media is already in a container and is irretrievable without specific hacks.

  6. Re:I mod you (+5, Funny) on How Firefox Will Handle DRM In HTML · · Score: 1

    Oh hey, you might also want to uninstall your Linux distribution because of binary blobs in the kernel. Of course they are not mandatory, neither they are loaded at all times, but EVIL PROPRIETARY BOLLOCKS.

  7. Re:Doesn't matter all that much on Can Thunderbolt Survive USB SuperSpeed+? · · Score: 1

    My USB2 card, a 6-channel Fast Track, can do with about 8ms of latency on my mediocre hardware. Is this really that big of a deal?

  8. Re:Uproar? on Vintage 1960s Era Film Shows IRS Defending Its Use of Computers · · Score: 2

    whooosh?

  9. Re:You probably cannot safely use the GCC compiler on AMD Develops New Linux Open-Source Driver Model · · Score: 1

    I think there were rather understandable exceptions to "tainting everything it touches". Like the Runtime Exception, seen here: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gc...

  10. Re:Free Markets (tm) on Killing Net Neutrality Could Be Good For You · · Score: 1

    I think you might check your hearing, or else you would hear the tell-tale whooshie sound.

  11. Re:Die, Ubuntu, Die (on topic = marginal) on Debian Technical Committee Votes For Systemd Over Upstart · · Score: 1

    I can't criticise personal choices. (It seems he has approximately the same problem with Ubuntu as he does with black or gay people though.)

  12. Re:Die, Ubuntu, Die (on topic = marginal) on Debian Technical Committee Votes For Systemd Over Upstart · · Score: 1

    Please elaborate.

  13. Re:Die, Ubuntu, Die (on topic = marginal) on Debian Technical Committee Votes For Systemd Over Upstart · · Score: 3, Informative

    You do know your pretty flagrant racism makes your opinions automatically much less sound, right?

  14. Re:"legends John Carmack and John Romero"? on Doom Is Twenty Years Old · · Score: 4, Informative

    They made their best games together. After that...well, the engines were good, I'd give them that.

  15. Re:Wire is good on The Dismantling of POTS: Bold Move Or Grave Error? · · Score: 1

    I guess this varies by state largely. In Moscow suburbs, DSL costs 400 rubles (around 10 Euros) per month with 5-10 Mbps at best, asymmetrical, and fiber/cable costs about 500 (about $15) with 40 Mbps speeds, scaling quite nicely. If the infrastructure is not dismantled, but replaced, then the cost/speed ratio is better on dedicated cable.

  16. Re:Wire is good on The Dismantling of POTS: Bold Move Or Grave Error? · · Score: 1

    Of course. I thought the whole project described in the article was about bringing fibre instead of copper.

  17. Re:Wire is good on The Dismantling of POTS: Bold Move Or Grave Error? · · Score: 1

    And DSL is much, much shittier than fiber. Good riddance.

  18. Re:A suggestion... on WxWidgets 3.0: First Major Release in Several Years · · Score: 1

    WOOOSH!

  19. Re:Completely MORONIC on Gate One Will Support X11: Fast Enough To Run VLC In Your Browser · · Score: 1

    Would you consider the cost of encoding the video instead? That is not too free, so I hear.

  20. Re:You go, Antigua ! on Antigua Looks Closer To Legal "Piracy" of US-Copyrighted Works · · Score: 2

    Not exactly. He was a person interpreting Torah and with a definite Jewish origin. Not to call him a Jew means to have a rather crazy interpretation of what a Jew means.

  21. Re:Why all this governmental intrusion? on Facebook Comment Prompts Arrests In Cyberbullying Suicide Case · · Score: 1

    Facebook comments are not private. Felonies also exist, although I'm bothered they didn't search for any other evidence.

  22. Re:Don't encourage them on Chromium To Support Wayland · · Score: 2

    That's not Canonical, actually. That's RH and X developers.

  23. Re:Perhaps they should have some console gamers Be on Valve Announces Hardware Beta Test For 'Steam Machine' · · Score: 1

    One of their requirements is that you should have played at least a game with the Big Picture mode on Steam to get it.

  24. Re:Guess that's why Valve is so behind Linux on Gabe Newell Talks Linux As the Future of Games at LinuxCon NA · · Score: 2

    Dota 2 is available on Linux, so is L4D2, so is HL:Source. I'd say you should check your sources.

  25. Re:"Digital recordings will be unplayable" on Why Steve Albini Still Prefers Analog Tape · · Score: 1

    I guess there is OMFI still.
