Off Topic. I find it funny that you would have a hard time watching "HBO's Silicon Valley" on an Ubuntu machine legally. HBO still uses flash based DRM.

You can watch HBO shows in amazon's player which works for chrome on ubuntu.

Can't Chrome's built-in Flash overcome that?

No, chrome's flash doesn't do DRM on regular linux distros. It does it only on ChromeOS.
