Yea, I've heard his lecture on Copyright VS Community; I agreed with it, but
RMS doesn't say nor think that all music must be free.
Why? Art is non-functional, software is functional. It is vital for software
to be free, but it isn't for music and art to be.
Popcorn Time uses a built-in VPN- combined with using purely Free Software,
it'll be rather difficult to track who used it.
Even if they were able to, so many people use these services it would hardly
be worth the money for companies to sue.
A new version? :)
The last one I tried didn't work (The website was down), so I might try this
one.
In response to the topic's question, no, I haven't.
In my two years using GNU/Linux, I've yet to run into a kernel panic, or any
failure that required a restart.
That's not something I can say for a certain proprietary operating system...
I use Minitube, which is simply for watching Youtube videos- pretty much any
song anyone wants to listen to is on Youtube. You can also download the songs
via Minitube, and convert them to ogg, if you like.
I think that Gnash should also be featured as important- there are people
that need Flash for work or school, and it may just save them from having to
use proprietary software.
Last year, I needed to use a website that required Flash for school.
Thankfully, Gnash worked with it. Gnash saved m
Sure, someone could.
However, based on the wiki page, it seems that the freedom aspect of the
Chromebook Pixel is questionable at this point.
I'll try to pick one up and take a look inside.
I'd say- Replicant drivers as well as support for newer devices (Most people
give you a crazy look when you suggest an S2) and Libreboot.
No- it uses WebRTC. I just tried it out today. It runs like magic. I used two
laptops (Each with the latest Abrowser and Trisquel 7), and Hello worked
perfectly.
I'm inclined to agree with Quantum. It is not an obligation for the server
host to release the code they use, as long as it's possible to develop your
own server by filling in the holes and reading the client's source code. If
for some reason this is impossible, then there is a problem. But,
Well, it comes with Abrowser. If it's not Free Software, Abrowser isn't,
either.
So, has anyone used the new "Hello" video/voice chat in Firefox (and by
extension, Abrowser?)

Don't download the software on that website, however. Just update/install
Merry Gravmas to you, as well! (All of my apples have already fallen off of
the Gravmas tree. :-( )
Why would you disable Gnash? Gnash is a Free Software replacement of Flash.
It's fantastic, and works with a lot of websites that otherwise wouldn't.
OpenOffice? I hope you mean LibreOffice. :p
OpenOffice recommends non-free plugins.
I wouldn't trust Tails for anything important.
Why is there a need for a Facebook app, anywho? Wouldn't a link to the
website suffice? (The mobile Android website uses no non-free JS. I find this
to be a good work-around for websites with non-free JS. Change your
user-agent to Android.)
You may need to go to www.youtube.com/html5 to enable HTML5 playback.
Alternatives include using Minitube or MPS-YT.
Jolla OS, like Android, sound fine at first. Until you hear "ARM", etc, etc.
A gratis web-host? That'd be rather hard to come across. The only ones I know
of give you an odd domain (I.E. "webiste.provider.com') and require you to
use a web-builder that uses non-free javascript, and even Flash in some
cases. I use Arvixe, wich isn't gratis, but is great for webhosting.
