I love 7zip

Obviously, we'd all love to have everything for free, but it's just not realistic. And $29 a pop isn't that bad when you consider the alternative is losing access to all of those files forever. I just try not to use my .rar files too much, because it does add up.

.7z enters the room

oh yeah? do a .7z now 😏

e: ah, you created the tar first i see now. i bet you know how to decompress a .tar.gz by memory every time

[-] 30p87@feddit.org 7 points 7 months ago

Well ... iirc passing through gzip is z. So it would be
tar xzf

extract, gzip, file

[-] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 9 points 7 months ago

extract ze files!

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

But I am le tired...

[-] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 months ago

Ok, well, then have a sleep 10 first. But then extract ze files!

[-] spiffpitt@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

i believe it can even figure out the compression on its own (via filename?) so all you need is "tar xf"

[-] 30p87@feddit.org 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Yup, but I prefer to remember and type them in case I need to work with unnamed (streams)/custom named files or want to mess with people that only go by filename instead of file

[-] PoolloverNathan@programming.dev 5 points 7 months ago

bsdtar xf (from nixpkgs#libarchive) and it'll figure it out.

[-] ryannathans@aussie.zone 4 points 7 months ago

I get the best results with .tar.zst (zstd)

[-] REDACTED@infosec.pub 2 points 7 months ago

I have no clue why my computer is inefficient with 7z, but I did my own benchmarking and realized the compressing and uncompressing speeds between 7z and rar were night and day. Ie. To extract 4gb, for winrar it took around 6 seconds. For 7z, it was around 30.

PeaZip for me.
