Doesn't TB2 have two interleaved streams, one carrying DP1.2 and the other carrying 20Gbps PCI-E? Even if the PCI-E stream has enough bandwidth for 5K in theory, the ecosystem isn't in place to use it as a display output. That&#x2

Even calling Minecraft finished is dubious, the official mod/plugin API has been in the works since 2010 and still isn't available. A game that's so dependent on mods for long term appeal and server management shouldn't

You have always been able to host Valve game servers with VAC disabled. If you want to play a game of "who has the variables on their hack set higher" without getting banned then knock yourself out.

One of the most robust cheats is Organner[1], which is notable for running entirely in ring0 instead of using a ring0 protector for a ring3 hack. It costs $40 a month , and people seem to be happy to pay that. [1] http://www.org
