7zip is better anyway I don’t understand why people still use WinRar. Then again I don’t understand why people still use Windows either.
Not everything is a competition. If people want to support WinRAR after the developer maintained it for more than 30 years and helped out millions of people, that’s just fine.
If i fill bottles with tap water and try to sell it to my neighbours then anyone still “supporting” me after 30 years is an idiot.
Bottles, time to bottle, and distribution are worth compensation
I’m glad you can have a Windows-free existence.
Some things just don’t function well on Linux, but there are lots of us who are 99% Linux and don’t use Windows unless we have to.
Like what exactly ?
My 3080ti graphics card. To my knowledge, NVIDIA drivers are still a mess on Linux, and any suggestion to “just switch to AMD” is neither helpful nor appreciated; as if dropping $500+ for a new graphics card when my current one works perfectly fine is in ANY way a valid solution.
Nvidia works fine on Linux. I have an nvidia card at home, and I support a bunch of them at work. It’s easy. https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/tesla/driver-installation-guide/latest/index.html
Use the network installation to add the deb or rpm repo, then choose whether you want the open or proprietary drivers. Install the package and that’s it, your package manager will handle the dependencies.
You may need to create and enroll a dkms key if you have secureboot enabled and you haven’t done that already, but that’s the only wrinkle.
How do you stop them from randomly uninstalling themselves? A bunch of guys use Ubuntu at work and the Nvidia drivers would randomly nuke themselves occasionally when the device is turned off and they’d have to force CLI mode and do a reinstall.
I’ve never seen that happen. But the transaction that caused it should be in the package manager log.
I was going to say. That’s never happened to me in Debian, Fedora, PopOS, Linux Mint, EndeavourOS, CachyOS, Nobara or Bazzite. Is this a Ubuntu only issue?
We use Ubuntu at work and I’ve never seen it. At home I use Debian and I’ve also never seen it there on my desktop, laptop, or server.
I use it on occasion, since it will deflate 100+GB zip files much faster than 7zip will. (7z is single threaded for pkzips)
It’s been more than a decade since I used it to compress anything though. LZMA2 rocks.
How does multithreading improve the performance of an unzip operation? I would think the opposite, given the context switching and (abstracted) low level drive writes.
