Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Where .7z at

    [–] [email protected] 32 points 5 months ago (1 children)

    On windows.

    7z is available for Linux as well (CLI only)

    It is open-source too.

    I know, but I’d say ppl on Linux tend to not use it.

    .7z gang, represent

    When I was on windows I just used 7zip for everything. Multi core decompress is so much better than Microsoft's slow single core nonsense from the 90s.

    Small ~~dick~~ package kings/queens rise up.

    Yeah, 7z is the clear winner.

    It's much slower to decompress than DEFLATE ZIP though
