Not to mention that, on Linux, flash is completely borked with Chrome - it causes graphical artefacts across all workspaces. Some youtube videos don't play, sound doesn't work in some videos. On top of that some website, like facebook, fail to render javascript correctly on first load; it lacks on many features and we will soon see triple digit version numbers. For all of Firefox's imperfections at least it works..

I'm actually losing respect for the English. I try to treat everybody the same and I don't judge - but now I am thinking that maybe the rest of the world are correct about you. It's funny how you hold contempt for us but, a self respecting nation, yet we don't have a big throbbing, stars and stripes, jammed down our gullet. Enjoy your fascist future. Independence for Scotland - vote yes Autumn 2014.

Copyright infringement is just another excuse to drum up more industry. 'Cyber' security / anti-terror - it's all the same to me; not to mention the other industries that benefit off the scraps.. such as IP law. The government are paranoid about it's citizens; the money that flows from the pockets of it's citizens go into the pockets of corporations that implement solutions - two birds with one stone; the US, and even the UK to an extent, are waist deep in lobbyist bullshit after all. This, to me, is the tell tale signs of an emerging far right system of governance. It's not the government we are fighting - it's the system of extreme capital and greed - where does it stop? There are two paths, major changes at an ideological level or continue fighting the good fight. The war on drugs was never won and never will be. Digital proliferation is a whole different ballgame - they will not be fighting criminals but ghosts. One sure way to neutralise a possible impending digital distopian future is through obfuscation - you don't have to hide if enough false positives are produced to set their heads spinning. Worms of the future may not steal your financial data but, instead, send 'the man' out searching for an endless stream false positives and legal dead ends - have them fighting their own system. :>

I'm really sick of hearing how all these places in the UK other than Scotland are getting their fair share of this broadband money - 1GBps networks being rolled out - London's 100mb planned networks already assured of upgrades. Every other English city seems bet getting 100mb networks; right down to the smallest village - but yet, in Scotland, most places barely even have 1mb lines; my sister barely gets 20 kbps and she lives less than 15 miles from a city of 100, 000 people. we don't all live in Glasgow you know. I, and most of the country, will be voting YES come the referendum in 2014. Let's see your NHS and fibre optic dreams stay afloat when we take back our North Sea gold. :)

More like out and out racist.. http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/tomchiversscience/100147319/top-banter-liam-stacey-is-an-idiot-thats-punishment-enough-for-his-fabrice-muamba-tweets/ I'm sorry, maybe jail is a bit harsh, but two things: 1) If you had said that in public then there is a good chance you would be jailed. 2) He was chucked off is degree course because he is now an inmate at his local prison - not for being racist. I'm all for freedom of speech and keeping big brother out of the interwebs but.. If you are stupid enough to say something like that then you are probably stupid enough to make your identity known.

"Ozzie also thinks Microsoft's future as a company is strongly tied to Windows 8's reception. 'If Windows 8 shifts in a form that people really want to buy the product, the company will have a great future" I really want to punch this guy. Nobody buys Windows out of choice; they buy it because, in most cases, it's the ONLY product people are aware of.

Waking a person unnecessarily should not be considered a capital crime. For a first offense, that is.
