Samsung TV solution is a bust. The assloads of apps mentioned above is a bust.
You can download camfrog server. It runs on Windows or Linux, and set up a free video chat room.
There are clients Win/OSX (and Camfrog operates just fine in WINE) and apps for the two dominant smartphone OSes.
There's a cloud version of the server if you're worried about reliability, so you can set it up on an instance or four if you are worried about uptime.
Or you could rent a web-based room from Camfriends.co.uk (based on the Camfrog Web software) and just connect via a web browser.
Maintenance? Oh, look, it asks you to upgrade, gives you a download and install button. Nothing else to do, it's that simple. Click. Done.
"OpenGL is considered by most game companies far worse."
Only because they have incompetent programmers that can't understand code closer to hardware than four levels of abstraction away, and don't understand how to write their own graphical extensions, which OpenGL supports, and will always kick DirectX's ass on.
Aka 99.9999999% of programmers out there aren't up to snuff, chuck. You're probably one of them. I know I am.
When small-time sceners can pack the graphic capability/scripting tools/audio capabilities of UT2K4 in fucking 96kbytes versus a few gigs... you're doing something fucking wrong. Thanks.kkreiger for showing us that.
Can't make your shit out of tungsten so when you hit a teensy 8-inch pipe you don't fuck the drill head up?
They should be asking for a refund on their drill head. I've blown apart 8-inch pipes with 10 inch coring bits and did NOTHING to the bit, which itself was about 1/8th the thickness of the pipes inner walls.
"Yeah, I have standardized on Asus for all my builds, and the ECC support is one of the reasons."
God I hope you never have to RMA with them. Last time I did it, they wanted me to send them $600, THEN they'd send me a new GPU, THEN I could ship mine back, THEN they'd redeposit the money in my account.
I just tossed the card and bought something other than Asus.
Clock speed is useless as a benchmark. Eventually, it's all down to how many instructions per cycle get carried out. Your pussy 5.0 GHz 2 instructions per clock cycle (making for 10 billion instructions per second) pales in comparison to my 2.5 GHz 8 instructions per cycle (20 billion instructions per second.)
See how quickly your clock speed arms race got destroyed?
This is why real performance is measured in IPS or FLOPS, not clock speed.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't realise I was talking to an insane person."
Yup, you keep thinking I'm insane. Meanwhile, I'll keep developing technology, such as zero-light growing technology and proving ill-educated twits like you wrong.
Go check out the grow lights section on Wikipedia. It's so much repeated and poorly-sourced advertising-as-fact that almost all of that information is WRONG.
And this is why I will never help/donate/edit Wikipedia. There's no way to stop the controlling interests. All information on Wikipedia should therefore be assumed false.

Yea, got a link to the talk page and such about that, eh?
"We spent several months trying to extract information from the researchers who were going to give the Black Hat talk, and eventually we did get some hints from them about how "relay early" cells could be used for traffic confirmation attacks, which is how we started looking for the attacks in the wild. They haven't answered our emails lately, so we don't know for sure, but it seems likely that the answer to Q1 is "yes"."
Fucking slashdot, can't even be bothered to RTFA to check the headline. It's only suspected, not proven, that black hat researchers did this.
"As an American with an above average grasp of the US legal system thanks to a long time friend who is an attorney, I can tell you that anything can happen if this case goes to court. Should the AARC lose? Yes. But will they? Who knows? Juries aren't made up of people who understand technology."
So much for your knowledge. You do know that the car companies could ask for this to go in front of a judge instead of a jury, right? And that all it's going to take is a note of RIAA v Diamond and also a mentioning from Chapter 92 of Copyright code to end this case as it's already been decided by higher courts than the one the case is going to.
Coming from someone that spends a LOT of time in court dealing with this kind of nonsense as an expert witness.

Questions?
Kills just about anything else.

"You're coming across as stupid, like you're a teenager or an arrested-development libertarian type."
Mother. Fucking. WOOSH.
Summer needs to hurry up and end so idiots like you can get the fuck back to school. Not like it's going to do your slave ass any good.
RMS doesn't do guns because only one or two are open-source, and he's seen the code and knows they're shitty.

"without some kind of protection cage this seems kind of a bad idea"
Good thing you're not en engineer and design person, then.
Guess what typically surround metal heat sinks?
Protection cages, like computer cases, amplifier cases, etc.
What're you even doing on here if you can't think of something like that?
" I wouldn't call a 2.2 GHz processor a "high end" PC."
Oh, look, another ignorant idiot that thinks clock speed is everything.
Just did. Now do you have the balls to join the lawsuit or are you just a fag on the underside of the lawsuit?
Apparently you're not smart enough to keep anything and everything on your home system.
Go ahead and keep proving linux zealots wrong with your conviction.
I could knock your poor security on its ass.
PROTIP: Since the early 90s, Backtrack was built upon my exploits.
You owe me, same way Sony owes me for revealing their own problems.
Bow down and STFU knave.

Yea, apparently I know of more places to put than you do, as well.
Because you never know. So you keep stuff separated to the very end, even in RAM.
Also, still need that IOPS speed!
You don't know how to segregate RAM into self-contained pools? It's only something we've been doing for 20+ years.
The settlement terms of my lawsuit against EA included that they're supposed to inform UPFRONT of the SecuROM DRM.
If they're no longer doing that, I've got standing to sue the fuck out of them again.
"Is there any convention about mentioning anywhere which protection softwares your software is using??"
Well, one of my settlement agreement terms with EA was that they're supposed to inform every consumer upfront about SecuROM.
If they're not doing that, they're in breach of our settlement agreement and I'm going to fucking end them in court.
