  1. Re:What's Actually Wrong With DRM...? on What's Actually Wrong With DRM In HTML5? · · Score: 2

    I second that. The simple look, feel and maybe even taste of the phrase "rights management" gives me the creeps. Rights are supposed to free - no matter to whom they belong.

  2. Re:HTML isn't anymore on Stop Standardizing HTML · · Score: 1

    Yeah - oxymoron!

  3. Re:Get TeamViewer on Ask Slashdot: How Best To Set Up a Parent's PC? · · Score: 1

    I personally find Chrome Remote Desktop extension to be just slightly more slick than TeamViewer.

    It requires Chromium to run obviously.

  4. Re:Depends, how much money you got? on Ask Slashdot: Are The Days of Homebrew Gaming Over? · · Score: 1

    Totally agree here - it made sense in the C=64/Amiga/Amstrad/Atari days because that was what was available at the time (degree of 'closed' platform can be discussed, yes).
    Today - not so much.

    No - it's "superKomputer" a KDE project that finally let you reach the full potential of the KDE software suite.

  12. Re:Blind leading the blind on Drupal 8 Development Begins — 15 Bugs At a Time · · Score: 1

    1. select count(*) from bugstore where bug_level='critical';

    That's soooo Drupal 6 in Drupal 7 we do awesomo stuff like:
    db_select('bugstore', 'b')->fields('b')->condition('bug_level', 'critical')->execute();

    that must have been the system that took them the 2,5 years from D6 to D7 - wrapping various home rolled PHP functions to SQL statements.

  13. Re:You see? They *are* changing their business mod on Sony, Universal Hope To Beat Piracy With 'Instant Pop' · · Score: 5, Insightful

    it was definitely money well spent.

    Not if you live in a country where you don't need a license to serve liquor and listen to music at your own private and personal wedding.
    Why is it that authorities need to have all this control? It pisses me off.

  17. Re:Meet the 4 stages on Microsoft Claims 'We Love Open Source' · · Score: 1

    I wonder if the same would apply had it been Commodore and their Amiga brand who'd ruled the PC/Console (Console because of the more or less locked hardware) world today?

  18. Re:Too late on Could Open Source Render Facebook the Next AOL? · · Score: 1

    Kopete (KDE4 version at least) have the ability as well via the Jabber/XMPP protocol (from which you can also connect to GTalk and various other Jabber based services).
