Microsoft is adding extensive archive format support (using libarchive) to Windows 11. I'd like to thank 7-zip for its service over the decades, though.

2 more...

Furthermore, apps using the unicode versions of functions (which all apps should be doing for a couple decades now) have 32kb maximum character length paths.

The book that contains the story Arrival is based on, Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang, is my favorite short story collection.

Vonnegut's Welcome to the Monkey House is also a good short story collection.

Masters of Doom is an amazing book about id's history. Not like, "good for a video game book". A legitimately good book for anyone.

The latest release added Lemmy support but it's pretty basic. It just let's you browse a specific instance as a timeline.

I've read that a high-end electrical tape like Scotch Super33+ doesn't leave residue, but I've never tried it myself.

Fun little side fact. That first video with the Shining parody is what inspired VSauce to start making YouTube videos.

They have a few different styles. What kind did you get?

Just open https://m.lemmy.world on your phone then go to Settings then Install App.

If you're talking about the more limited set of options you get when you right click a file in Windows 11, just hold shift while right clicking to get the original options. You've actually been able to hold shift to get additional options going way back, I think to windows XP.

There's a lot of extra useful options in there too like opening command prompts to the current folder and copying file paths to the clipboard.

Lemmy.world just upgraded to 0.18 a couple of hours ago. Still a little sluggish but has improved significantly over the last half hour.
