you can just consume no (online) content at all. And maybe lend the dvd in your video library.

the masses want content, the publishers want DRM. As long as drm content works for both, nothing will change.
> Pale Moon has a 64-bit version. Firefox doesn't.
still wrong. Why is everybody still telling this?
$ file firefox
firefox: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, BuildID[sha1]=e06519b9e2b09c1b4e56b7ad11afc0d84e1b5aad, stripped
the loophole of a sandbox around the drm.
The problem: As long as other big players support DRM, the browser where "i can watch videos" will get more users, the others less.
One good thing would be to say: Fuck DRM, we are making a browser as we like it, if we're the only users thats no problem for open source software.
On the other hand, this would mean for users, who want to consume content, that they need to use other possibly even non-free browsers to do so. If mozilla supports this DRM, they may be able to influence it, i.e. force companies to accept a sandbox around the DRM. So they might help to keep the problem small.
So of course you can fork, but you will gain nothing. The sandbox for DRM does not hurt, if you do not use it. What hurts is, that all major browser support DRM now, so that the publishers can use it. Assume i.e. 75% of the browser market would not support DRM, then we might get a free web. But if 30% do not support it, the 30% will shrink as users will use other browsers, at least to watch videos.
So mozilla may be right about this. But they are wrong, as they should be a good example. But the next big opensource browser is chromium, which will support DRM, because google wants to use DRM (i.e. for play videos)
what about the cleanup?
Nilfs2 is quite cool, but the cleaner-daemon causes a lot of disk io, which is not only annoying, but makes me think about disk lifetime as well.
Is it there in reallife?
A right to be forgotten means, means by negation, there is no law, which forces people to remember you.
So, there IS NO such law, not online not in "real life".
You will be forgotten, online and offline. As long as you're not interesting. If you are, you will not be forgotten. Do you really think, snowden will ever be forgotten offline? You do not need to go to a newspaper archive in 20 years to remember snowden, this name will remain for long in our society, if not even in history books.
Was Barbara Streisand forgotten?
Just forget it. If you want to be forgotten, keep quiet. People may or may not forget you, but if you insist on being forgotten, you will be remembered.
1) Shouldn't we expect, there will be enough growth in bandwidth, that the cap could be 30.000 in 5 years?
2) Do they expect, the content will be that small in 5 years, that 300 gb is enough? 4K streaming anyone?
Firefox should stand for an open web. there are browsers like chrome, to support drm. The people firefox might lose, are not the people, who use firefox because they want an open web. Having the maximum of users isn't a neccessary goal for an opensource project, but only for a for-profit company. Firefox is no such company. Lets say google stops sponsoring firefox. Will it die? Of course not, it will continue to be improved by volunteers, maybe even with a better morale than now, not only regarding DRM.
everyone needs a little slack off during work to boost the productivty while working. assigning all the hard tasks to one person won't work out.
But telling everyone to cut an hour per day off and work the rest with max. power, won't work either. You need to be there to make sure you will pick up work again, when you feel like it. Its much more likely if you're browsing the internet than when you went home and come back at the next day.
its opensource, and i guess the tools are okay. You will need to update it for newer package versions.
why shouldn't the computer have a decay? You can have read/write errors, you can compute a lossy encoding if you want to
> otherwise, retrieving memories repeatedly would cause them to gradually decay
So, i guess this was never observed on real humans?
grub 1 was great, you could install it with a few basic commands from the grubshell (which was in the terminal just like during the boot). grub2 needs config generation and actual use of grub-install.
(But it works okay, too)
