TOR is effectively blocked in China, the only way to use it there is to setup a private obfsproxy somewhere abroad, but I believe it's beyond an average user skills.

I guess what they are going to do when Turkish government will buy some advanced DPI hardware with SVM (Support Vector Machines) which is capable of blocking TOR
I'm from Russia and happy to stay here.
I'm afraid its just a joke
No, thanks. I'll keep out of any new google services
I decided to go with Liferea desktop RSS reader and I like it so far.
Now you can download speeches of your leader 10 times faster.
Same flaw for Russia.
They have an intranet in N.Korea. They have some websites (e.g wikipedia) in it as local copies from the internet
It will look exactly like SCO's present.
I don't read interviews with Linus Torvalds anymore. He's a harsh and selfish person and seems like his number one hobby is not software development, but swearing at people.
I'd rather choose death penalty than living six years without Internet
I had problems accessing google services from China long before. I just started using proxy for all google websites, so I didn't even mentioned last changes
There are just not so many Linux users over there.
Its normal in other countries. I've even seen dedicated field for max age on some russian job boards.
They are not going to release it for Linux for now :(
I have never seen publication about the same things in Russian press.
Seems like it is not the case: > You must be a US resident to accept payments.
Is it possible to accept wepay for merchants from another countries, e.g Russia?

I wont trust it a lot since it says torproject.org is not blocked anywhere in China http://viewdns.info/chinesefirewall/?domain=torproject.org
Indeed, we already have things like Emacs, Vim, etc. But this is not Windows, not Mac. This is SPARTAA^W GNU/Linux and there people should have freedom of choice.
Current state of SCO = future for Microsoft
Only idiots can take words comes from Russian Government seriously. There are only huge kickbacks, budget waste and thievery behind the propaganda they forcing down our throats.
Any that comes with Optimus. Nvidia's blob just don't see them.
There is basically no nvidia drivers available for many modern mobile GPUs on Linux, so I doubt that Nvidia is more linux friendly than ATI/AMD nowadays.
I guess the problem is that Nvidia pretending to be Linux supporting company (they even joined Linux Foundation) while completely disregards linux users in many ways, e.g Nvidia still doesn't support Optimus in drivers for Linux. What stopped them? Today almost every second laptop goes with GPU built with nvidia optimus technology and it's can be a very painful experience to use linux on such devices.
Can I watch this webcast without flash player?
or just abandon it
