Since Vulkan is the big thing right now for us, it's probably a good idea to watch the livestream of their event happening now.

I dont want to sound greede. But is this something that will be uploaded on youtube?
Dunno if thats legal for GOL, or can I see this at a later date?
I cant watch a stream right now, tho Im fairly intressed in this ^^.

Wow Im really liking this vulkan, nvidia stuff thats been in the news latly on GOL.
Seems Linux are getting closer and closer to stopt being ignored by developers and players.
And it seems like, its not only talk anymore, vulkan is getting public ^^.

Install LiveStreamer, it's a command that can catch the stream and open it in your choice of video player. There's even a good chance it's already in your distro's repository. http://livestreamer.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

Once installed you can just type in: livestreamer http://www.ustream.tv/channel/khronos-siggraph best

Simply watch on Chrome/Chromium instead as they have a custom flash called Pepper thats part of their browser?

Works for me. Netflix, Flash, etc...

Installing Flash into my package manager - ew.
