Not the Patchy I wanted.

The latest fetish seems to be open source. It will pass. It comes from reddit culture and general praise-seeking behavior online. Contributing to open source == upgoats.

Security? Auditing the binary is the only way even if you have the source code. You can't be an expert in every language, so it's easier to read disasm.

Modification? Easier to just find another program that does it, use the program's integrated scripting env if it supports one, or write a program yourself for that specific purpose, which will be quicker than trying to get up to speed on a whole big project.

The money? The deficiencies of open source programs compared to ones people are paid to maintain justify whatever the program may cost. Most closed source programs don't cost anything anyway.

Guess the only legitimate reasons to use open source is that you're just gullible, clinically paranoid, NEET, trying to fit in among other internet idiots who use le cool shitty OSS, or a non-programmer.

The latest fetish seems to be trolling. It will pass. It comes from 4chan culture and general hate-seeking behavior online. Contributing to flamewars == upgoats.

Pimple-faced homeosexual detected.

Proper trolling conceals a false statement among many other true ones in order to reach a false conclusion.  What you're doing there is enumerating a bunch of false statements in the hope of pissing someone off, presumably someone who does not see what you are doing.  It might work on facebook, but not here.

It almost seems obligatory to show Linux distros downloading in the screenshots of your torrent client.

why do you need a windows torrent client when utorrent exists

>>17
Well, there's not a lot of other legal stuff to torrent. And showcasing your torrent client with illegal downloads might prove unwise.

Though it could make for an awesome troll: consider this, a pack of wild coders forks the old open-sores version of mu-torrent, brings it up to feature parity with the proprietary version (or at least claims to), then puts it on Github and Sourceforge. Complete with screenshots of it being used to download pirated software, music, videos and porn (as close to CP as possible).

Then it's hyped it on reddit, blah blah, people are, like, what the fuck u thinkin' gurl, someone tips MAFIAA and it gets involved, because look, this shit is _intended_ to assist in breaking the law, look at the screenshots! DMCA!!1

Then you say, guys, what's your problem, we provide exact same functionality as mu-torrent, why don't you go after them, hypocrisy much? And then the real fun starts!

At least that's something close enough to what people will usually use it for...

Why do you need a separate browser, irc client, and bittorrent client when you have Opera in most platforms?

>>20
The latest in that list is 1979. I don't understand why they insist on making copyright last so fucking long, it's not like they expect much movie sales 15 years after the release.

>>21
Boy, do I have some news for you...

Why do you need a separate browser, irc client, and bittorrent client when you have Emacs in most platforms?

>>24
coz emacs is slow, ugly, hard to use, buggy pile of shit.

>>21
bad comparison, utorrent is undoubtedly the best windows torrent client (and the smallest somehow, it's a truly amazing piece of software), opera is one of the best browsers (it's impossible to point to the best browser though) but its torrent, irc and mail clients are basic, especially torrent client

Someone file a bug report that Patchouli should be made the official mascot of this program.

>>25,21

>>26
Yeah i forgot the email client. It's somewhat basic, but the section of "Attachements" is very useful.

IRC, well you can't use scripts, or color your text, but is enough form to go to help channels on freenode.

Bittorrent: I agree that is VERY basic. But has saved me a few times. Sadly it does not understand magnet links.

Consider that you can have Opera in a USB drive in a 20MB file download, and you see the usefulness of that.

What news? The "Webkit" thing?

>>27
Yes.
