    Adobe flash source code "release"

    If Flash is dead, then how do you watch YouTube? I have tried the HTML5 trial, it is just not as good as Flash, it's sluggish and very very unresponsive. At this point there is not a single alternative for it,the HTML5 is overhyped IMO.

    Steam for Linux (Closed Beta)

    The casual gamer don't care about games that are aim at a specific audience. IF they want to succeed they need to target at the general pop IMO. They probably know something the public doesn't. Yeah, probably.

    Steam for Linux (Closed Beta)

    Enlighten me how it is a good start when Linux gaming is like 20 years behind. If the Linux market(safe to say non-existent) was any lucrative you would see some big names behind it. Regardless of how restrictive the Windows Store is, IMO I think people will still use it.

    Steam for Linux (Closed Beta)

    I don't see what is the point of porting games on Linux when windows is the mainstream and will always be for a long time. I saw Half-Life on that page, seriously? The game is already ancient what is the point? it'll never get any new games or forgein ones. Most of the games are either clones...

    I don't qualify to criticize people's work , but it seems like the Linux people are making more duct tape versions of frankenstein.

    Is Optical Media dead?

    Flash drives are still better if backups are anything below 200G. They are smaller and faster. We already got USB 3.0. DVDs are oudated.

    Is Optical Media dead?

    Hard drives tend to last very long. I have old PCs that bang and shake and they still work as long as its properly secure. Backing up more than 100G of data with DVD is just silly you would have to organize and label them. Hard drives are so cheap you can get a few TB under $150. DVD is a...

    Is Optical Media dead?

    I still have 2 80gig hard drives(Platium, and Maxtor, now Seagate. They still work fine after 10 years. Hard drives are cheap just get more if you worry about them failing. They work perfectly fine for storing personal data.

    Is Optical Media dead?

    SSD USB 3.0 will be the mainstream imo. Its just better and a lot more convenient to carry around.

    One of the reasons I keep using Opera is because of the built in keyboard navigation.

    GUI package manager

    What is wrong with pkg_add and pkg_delete? It's been working great for me, and I think that is the standard in FreeBSD. If you want everything GUI I suggest Windows 7 or 8, just type appzwiz.cpl and Add/Remove manager pops up.

    Installing MPlayer from ports takes very long

    It is processing a bunch of gcc-xxx xxx.c files. It's still going. Here is a line from the screen. /usr/ports/lang/gcc46/work/build/./prev-gcc/xgcc -B/usr/ports/lang/gcc46/work/build./prev-gcc/ -B/usr/local/i386-portbld-freebsd9.0/lib

    Installing MPlayer from ports takes very long

    How long does it normally take? The process has been going for about three hours and is still not finished. I didn't enable many options either. I'm using a pretty old machine if that is the problem. 1.2GHZ AMD Duron.

    Opera 12.00 released

    Flash on this version is really bad, like it hangs up at 100% CPU usage all the time. It's unwatchable for me.
