I wonder how memes about WinRAR still get made. Besides everyone mentioning 7zip is better in every thread, windows explorer has been able to unzip things for ages now. Who is still using WinRAR?
18 0 ReplyHas it? I thought that was only added in a recent update?
Not that I'd know, I stopped using windows almost 2 years ago

It's a compression and decompression program. If you've ever heard of the ZIP file format, then this program basically opens and creates ZIP files (and other files in similar formats, such as RAR).

Same with sublime text. "We'll only bug you every 50 saves about buying a license."
I can live with that.
And Emby media server. "Once in a while we'll have a 10 second delay to start the movie."
5 0 ReplySublime has a paid version ?
1 0 ReplyI didn’t know it had a free version
1 0 ReplyMaybe only on Linux? I actually would buy one because I love the product so much and I want to support the developers. But $99 is a bit steep.

But why would you.
4 0 ReplyHa, funny thing, I bought it yesterday.
2 0 ReplyWhy? 7zip is just better. Also .7z is the superior compression algorithm
30 0 ReplyPleeease just use zip. Different compression algorithms just lead to headaches and honestly who cares which is better, use the standard. Everyone can open zip files. Don't send your stuff as a .rar, .7z or .tar.gz.

Better check for your version since <6 got got compromised
2 0 ReplyI'm too lazy to check, so how much is it? Is it a one-time purchase or a subscription?
2 0 ReplyOnetime for around 30 bucks. Yeah, 7zip is free and I used that but I had to repair a corrupted rar archive. It worked and I was thankful for that so I bought it.
