I want multi boot for phones. Why is it acceptable for phones that one can not install another operating system?

you can do WebM and/or Ogg Theora live streaming with Flumotion, Icecast, GStreamer. This just works in the video tag in Firefox, Chrome and Opera. It does not work in Safari and IOS since Apple refuses to support those formats.

why would you use bitcoin below that though? requiring a both vendor and customer have an account at some paypal like site just makes it paypal. it will have the same problems. so what does bitcoin add? nothing

Sadly, it still does not work with 2 monitors. i.e. attaching a projector for a presentation, all your windows get moved to the projector. can be quite a problem if you are in a meeting. in addition external monitor can only be to the right, since the dash is fixed on the left.

If you want to drag something inside an application to the left side, the dash shows up and blocks the left side of the application. no way to move the dash.

Just two major bugs in terms of usability. ignored for a long time.

I like it when you right click-> Click on Save as video.. and unfortunately, this video is not available in Germany because it may contain music for which GEMA has not granted the respective music rights. Sorry about that.
