Why do people continue to buy products and use services from companies who publish their software under restrictive, nonfree licenses? We have to convice the normies of the dangers of proprietary software before it's too late.

I've always preferred PCs for games and work and for many other reasons I'm sure you have heard a million times before. However; its the year twenty-seventeen! Surly the science making powerful portable computers has been perfected, right?

This is what I thought 5 hours ago when I started looking for my potential first laptop. I thought it would be simple and easy to get a sleek laptop that was as powerful, if not, better than my 3 year old desktop. While laptops are smaller and faster than ever before, they all seem to have these caveats that make it impossible to decide on one over the other. And when the prices can be anywhere between 1500 - 3000 for a strong laptop, these issues can't be justified.

This one is powerful but its ugly as sin. This one is beautiful but its got terrible cooling. This one has a color accurate screen but its flimsy and poorly constructed. This one checks all the boxes but has useless extra features that show in it's price. They all seem to have some nagging issue to spoil the whole thing.

Its to the point where I'm starting to get mad at the engineers designing these things! I know they have a tricky puzzle of a job getting these parts to fit nicely into a little laptop package but jeepers! I'm hard pressed to find a laptop I can look at and say "man, what a smart looking piece of hardware."

If you are on a laptop right now, you clearly did what I could not and found something you were happy to pay for. My question is, what the heck magical miracle laptop did you get and why?

Thread for C appreciation and programming.
I will start with an exercise from KandRC. Exercise 1-13.

#include<stdio.h>

main(){
    int c, length;
    length = 0;
  
     while( (c = getchar()) != EOF){
         if( c == ' ' || c == '\t' || c == '\n'){
             /* found one word */ 
             while( --length >= 0)
                 putchar('-');
             putchar('\n');
             length = 0; 
        }
        else{
             /* inside word */
             putchar(c);
             ++length;
         }
    }
}

I remember back in the limewire days everything was riddled with so many viruses I paid good money for access to a warez ftp site that had all the pirated shit without viruses and quick speeds. Will this meme make a comeback? Or is it impossible to keep up because interpol?
