You won’t be able to upgrade to new versions when the support contract runs out, but you can install updates to the existing version as long as updates are made for it. This has always been the lifecycle for perpetual licensing. It’s good forever, but at a certain point it becomes a security risk to continue using. The difference here is they won’t sell you another perpetual license when the lifecycle is up.
They’re terminating in the sense that they won’t sell it anymore. They’re not breaking the licensing they’ve already sold (mostly, there was some fuckery with activating licensing they sold through third parties)
I find public trackers are easier to get good ratios since more people use them. Private trackers are better for finding what you want and having it actually have seeders, though.
I can handle dynamically typed, but the whitespace thing kills me. I kind of really like PowerShell.
