What does /g/ think of GNU parallel?

Like:
ls -1 | parallel flac --best {}

OSX Yosemite 10.10 is free yet again, and Apple has stated that OSX upgrades will be free for life.

Linux is kill, right? I mean you had to pay for OSX upgrades before and now OSX is basically a free OS.

OSX is as free as Linux, is based on Unix, and actually works, unlike most Linux desktops.

Why aren't you using the best free desktop OS on the planet instead of wasting your time with Linux, which costs you time that you'll never get back?

You know what to do.

I know this isn't the place for it. But a user was randomly looking up the user IP based on ID or something and it took down my ability to use catalog, and whatever he did made my internet shit out, and practically nothing would load for about 20 minutes now. I renewed IP and all this other shit but I just randomly fixed itself. What did he do to my system so I can prevent it? For the record I wasn't insulting anyone and was just browsing around.

Let's discuss Open Source Software as defined by the Open Source Initiative.

You have have heard some FSF proprietors here criticize "open source" for not promoting "software freedom", but the OSI definition provides the same four freedoms as the FSF's free software definition.

https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html

Let's compare these two definitions:

* Freedom 0 -The freedom to run the program, for any purpose
** 5. No Discrimination Against Persons or Groups
** 6. No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor
** 8. License Must Not Be Specific to a Product
** 9. License Must Not Restrict Other Software
** 10. License Must Be Technology-Neutral

* Freedom 1 - The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish
** 2. Source Code
** 3. Derived Works

* Freedom 2 - The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor
** 1. Free Redistribution

* Freedom 3 - The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others
** 3. Derived Works

What do you guys think about this?

What are /g/'s views on ReactOS?
Found a recommendation for it when looking for some lightweight OS to host network shares since using a full blown Windows 7 or 2008 R2 VM seemed wasteful.

From a quick look it's been in Alpha since 2004 with no end in sight and its crowdfunding thing looks set to fail but the idea of pre-8 Windows without any ties to MS sounds strangely appealing

SO /g/ some guy has my IP and keeps booting me offline whilst im working, how can i fix this?

Are you ready?
