In response to:

GRsecurity is preventing others from employing their rights under version 2 the GPL to redistribute (by threatening them with a non-renewal of a contract to recive this patch to the linux kernel.)
(GRsecurity is a derivative work of the linux kernel (it is a patch))

People who have dealt with them have attested to this fact:
https://www.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/4grdtb/censorship_linux_developer_steals_page_from_randi/
"You will also lose the access to the patches in the form of grsec not renewing the contract.
Also they've asked us (a Russian hosting company) for $17000+ a year for access their stable patches. $17k is quite a lot for us. A question about negotiating a lower price was completely ignored. Twice." -- fbt2lurker

And it is suggested to be the case here aswell:
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/4gxdlh/after_15_years_of_research_grsecuritys_rap_is_here/
"Do you work for some company that pays for Grsecurity? If so then would you kindly excersise the rights given to you by GPL and send me a tarball of all the latest patches and releases?" -- lolidaisuki
"sadly (for this case) no, i work in a human rights organization where we get the patches by a friendly and richer 3rd party of the same field. we made the compromise to that 3rd party to not distribute the patches outside and as we deal with some critical situations i cannot afford to compromise that even for the sake of gpl :/
the "dumber" version for unstable patches will make a big problem for several projects, i would keep an eye on them. this situation cannot be hold for a long time" -- disturbio


Is this not tortious interference, on grsecurity's (Brad Spengler) part, with the quazi-contractual relationship the sublicensee has with the original licensor?

(continued)


(Also Note: the stable branch now contains features that will never make it to the "testing" branch, and are not allowed to be redistributed, per the scheme mentioned above (which has been successful: not one version of the stable branch has been released by anyone, even those asked to do so, since the scheme has been put in place (they say they cannot as they cannot lose access to the patch as that may cost the lives and freedom of activists in latin america)))

@xoreipeip @grsecurity they call it a "demo" version "20:14 < spender> what's in the public version is < 1/5th the size of the full version"
oreipeip @grsecurity "20:21 < spender> also it wouldn't be as fast as the commercial version [...] there are missing optimization passes"

GRsecurity are a bunch of bullies, trying to stop free flow of information!

I mean, visually speaking, it's pretty basic.

Shit for use, good for teaching noobs

I think it's the nigger language for niggers and over-the-hill jizz stains.

Having said that it got me started when I was 13, so I can't really complain.

Anon, I've been trying to find the answer to this question for ages.
I don't think there is one. I'm stuck with this shithole.

Nah mpv is a dumb opengl shit, just like vlc or kodi.
The king is madvr! It's more advanced and much more optimized.
Combined with mediaportal you have the best homecinema experience.

yeah but if it turns into world war 3 they'll probably be nukes used and then most of the world is fucked and we're all scavenging for cans or growing potatoes to survive if it gets out of hand

Welcome to New Windows.

That's just how things are now. Microsoft just decides to make changes to your PC without consulting you now. And since they already know you wont switch to a different OS regardless of how much they abuse you, Microsoft will keep pulling that shit.

>>54860749
Dumb goyim your files belong to MS. You accepted the EULA!

These updates happen once in 6 months or so
Expect a fuck ton of new """"""""features""""""""
Its backing up the windows direcory, the registry and some other things
Personal data is confirmed safe

Shameful bump

How much?

Checked one out in a store cause I had the same idea OP, loose wobbly power cable, trackpad was jumpy, hinge felt loose, keyboard is too shallow for my liking and those bezels are a lot larger in person.

If your making a gaming pc I'd suggest going back to the i5-6600k. I not convinced the performance difference is worth the price difference.

Besides gaming pc's are heavily reliant on the gpu anyway.

>>54860246
water cooling is mostly enthusiast-grade stuff meant for ridiculous overclocking and is, for most people, completely unnecessary
in the same vein, you don't need a fuckhuge tower cooler unless you plan on doing some serious oc
for most of the average desktop usage, a 212 evo will do the trick and costs less than a third of what either option will run you

>>54860246
people who get liquid cooling also get $200 mechanical keyboards, both are completely necessary for computing

>>54860283
I'm planning to built a PC with a i7 6700k, I maybe overckock it in the future. With a 212 evo it's enough?
