  1. its going to change. How: by releasing a new lineup. that change probably bad for everything currently released as it becomes worth less. Why: because company's want profit so they make things we want to buy.
  2. what are you trying to do? what site says so? are you trying to host a website because port 80 is for http. portforwarding is only usefull if you're trying to act as a server, not as a client.
  3. linux is 50% of the posts in that subforum if not way more. it would be like throwing reactOS in the same section as windows imo.
  4. yea thats exactly what i mean! like, years of engineering went into what would be a practical place for human fingers to interface quickly and intuitively with the phone without having to move or even look at the phone, just embed it there instead of trying to find a new practical place for it.
  5. so gimmicky. it causes more problems than it solves imo. i would rather see a sensor embedded in the side of the phone like those old laptops had. usable when screen down or up so nobody can complain about that. but maybe that has severe problems idk.
  6. you're completely misinterpreting my argument. it was my explanation for why there is no such thing as void of freedom of speech, not my explanation to why you can legally use violence.
  7. its trading, there is no indication what it will do in the long term. we can speculate but nobody really knows.
  8. but freedom of speech is interchangeable with freedom of expression in this case. because that is what it means when you involve, written expression, art, dance, music, etc etc etc. even DDOS is considered a freedom of speech in some country's. violence can be considered a form of expression, and thus something that could fall under freedom of 'speech'.
  9. then drive cages will be fully obsolete for most builds. thats a pretty huge development in computing if you think about it.
  10. its not limited to speech. just because its called that doesn't mean that its an accurate name. we don't oppress mute people and written media under that same idea. speech is meant figurative for speaking out, not literally talking. i never said otherwise
  11. hopefully tox.chat can replace it eventually, good luck trying to shut down/get the keys of a decentralized p2p onion-protocol chat.
  12. it literally is marked above it, it isn't just the username.
  13. on a low resolution its pretty obviously marked. its not that sneaky imo, even the user is named advertorial. the text they used to indicate its an advertisement is just their normal font size in bold.
  14. yes definitely. if you can sell it for quite a buck more than you bought it at than its worth it.
  15. its a slippery slope fallacy though.. just because free speech on social media is limited doesn't mean that free speech in general is limited nor that the person not caring about free speech on social media doesn't care about free speech in general. like i said, its a sliding scale not an absolute.
  16. im not saying i disagree with you, just that its not a good way to think about freedom.
  17. exactly my point. you're always going to infringe someones freedom to express themselves. and you're always going to infringe someone's right to live.
  18. i limit myself to the news section, notifications, and recent posts exactly because of this. its like clicking another youtube video.
  19. i don't think there is a real limit to free speech like many people like to suggest. in a way me killing someone can be seen as free speech, im expressing my opinion physically. free speech isn't a neatly defined range, its always there in various degrees no matter the platform. also the north korea argument is so defeatist and simplistic. its also a logical fallacy, ergo decedo.
  20. intel 600p is superior. much more gb writes per day within warranty and better read and write speeds all around. if you could i would even go dual 600p even for the warranty alone. according to my source intel has 315,6GB per day, samsung 850 evo 82,2GB. thats a massive difference. intel also has more than triple the sequential read speeds and 4k random 155.000IOPS vs the 98.000IOPS on samsung. i doubt you will notice it but it is quite a big statistical difference.
  21. http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/ Deluge is an bittorrent client that has quite a lot of functions such as local machine streaming while downloading, webinterface, etc. the client can connect to any host, or start a local host. this makes it easy to run all your torrents from a single machine while still getting easy access to the controls without much of a hassle. i like it more than transmission, its still lightweight but has plugin functionality. stability wise its not the greatest on windows 7, but not as unstable as the windows port of transmission.
  22. https://tox.chat/ Tox is an open source peer to peer anonymity focused chat client that doesn't use central servers and thus can't be raided or hacked. it can run on windows, android, ios, linux, FreeBSD, OSX. you can even run it from a terminal which makes it great for systems that don't use a GUI. it supports chat, file sharing, voice call, video call, screen sharing, contact lists. its not limited to 2 people, group chats support all of those functions too. open source under CC BY-SA 4.0 license. http://openhardwaremonitor.org/ OpenHardwareMonitor is exactly what you would expect, it reads sensor data and makes it easy to read and access. it can place a gadget on your desktop on which you can place any sensor data you want which is pretty usefull. it allows you to rename every component and its sensors. it also allows to display any sensor data on your taskbar in any colour you like. it can host a web server to which it posts the info exactly like in the client so you can access it remotely, port is of course changeable to whatever you want. it doesn't report SMART data but it does report writes to flashcontroller and flash controller writes to NAND and the health of the SSD. i really like it. open source under MPL 2.0 and some other licenses due to library's used etc. (Aga.Controls License, WinRing0 License, jQuery License, Knockout License)
  23. do you have eyes? if its fixed by a microcode update than its not an OS issue since that's an update that doesn't involve changing the OS at any level.
  24. bhahahahahhaah windows office macro's have been insecure for so long now, i don't understand why they are not disabled/reworked completely.
