Does Windows 10 spy on you significantly more than Windows 8? Like should I avoid upgrading or am I already spied on the same amount on Windows 8 so it wouldn't really matter if I upgraded?

Who knows? They're both closed-source. No way to know for sure. Every version of Windows probably spies on you to the maximum degree.

Given how you can do almost everything in Emacs along with how Emacs was written, why does this not exist?
>Portability
>Emacs uses a layered architecture, with a Turing complete language running on top of a smaller central core. Because about three-fourths of the stock Emacs distribution (1266 of 1611 kLOC as of version 24.4) is written in the Elisp extension language [1], and the set of features implemented in Elisp code are automatically present once the C core (which implements the Elisp interpreter, weighing 247 kLOC as of 24.4) has been ported, porting Emacs to a new platform is considerably less difficult than porting an equivalent project consisting of native code only. Theoretically, only the core must be ported to the new platform; once the core is ported, the portions implemented in the language above take minimal work to bring over.

So, I'm getting an XPS 13 as my travel laptop. Should I spend ~1000 for the best Full HD or ~1250 for the QHD with the i7? What's the battery life difference between the two?

>as my travel laptop
what?
>>
>>55673274
IO guess I should be more clear: my laptop for when I go on longer trips, of which I have two planned this year. Actually, it'll probably be my primary laptop. My old monster of an Asus machine is about to die, and I want something that's more portable than that while still being decently powerful.
I'm leaning towards the 1080p + 8GB ram version just for its shear portability, but I'm open to being convinced on the qhd version with an i7 just for the sheer extra power and resolution, if the battery doesn't suffer too much.
>>
>>55673351
You don't really need a QHD for a 13.3 inch screen. 1080p will look just as good.

Oh, no joke OP, just let it all sit on one focal point in the center. Then when you have a good blob there, use the rest that is still leaking out of the applicant syringe-looking thingy and circle around the still exposed parts of the processor until it stops coming out, then put cap back on.
This has worked best for me, if you have it all in one little ball when you squeeze it with the heatsink it will evenly disperse into all directions

Just use X
X is the best

Hey /ptg/, what's the difference between 0-day, General and Scene trackers, and what's the best 0-day/General tracker?
I read the stuff in the OP but couldn't get this straightened out. Seems to heavily imply iPT but isn't that the shady as fuck one?
