Serious question, why?

I see this all the time, but I've run my own tests in the past and found WinRAR to be both faster and produce smaller file sizes.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

In addition to being free, the 7z file format seems to achieve slightly higher compression ratios.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

7zip is free.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Easy. 7-zip is open source. Enough said.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

Fair enough.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I… I don’t get it.

The lemons are so sour they compressed the files?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Maybe because it puckers up so it's smaller?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 5 months ago (1 children)

This is a spin on a existing meme called "Thour", where various animals or objects are licking a lemon.

Please refere to this link for references.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I knew about the "Thour" meme, but still didn't get why the directory turned compressed. My guess is that by licking the lemon, the directory folds in on itself, thus becoming compressed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It retreats its non existent head from the sourness, as if folding itself in, generally making itself smaller, hence, compressed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

That checks out - thanks!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

That'd be my interpretation aswell.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 5 months ago (6 children)

To everyone else who laughed at this: how are your knees doing, old timer?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Mostly fine, I'm only 25 though too :D

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

Old guy here who's just to slow to put it all together, what am I seeing here?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

I dunno if there's a deeper reference to it, but to me it's just a simple visual pun.

You know how licking a lemon makes your face scrunch up?

The folder licked the lemon and it scrunched up so tight it's now a ZIP file.

The reason laughing at it makes you an old fart is because it uses the WinRAR icon.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

They get sore before it rains, now

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

I walk every day, so they're doing just fine.

I predate WinRAR, my first file archiver was PKZIP.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Now just because I recognize winrar I have knee problems due to old age? What a nonsensical, unfounded and ageistic assumption from you that is. My knees are fine, thanks - unlike my back.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

barefoot shoes saved my back I used to have constant backpain since teenagers, now I have walked one year with barefoot shoes nad my posture is better than ever and I feel some stiffness at worst. I do walk a lot and play disc golf pretty much though, but I did before barefoot shoes too and I still had back pains.

also worth noting I started using them at almost 23 years old

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

If you have lower back pain, mainly where the back and glutes meet, do weighted hip thrusts. My back just doesn't care about the things that used to hurt it anymore.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

sure but I get that just from walking, it activates my back musckes perfectly. I walk around 70k steps per week. those moves seem like a good excercise though, I'm just bad at keeping routines so walking is easier lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (2 children)

What shoes do you recommend?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I also have leguano, but wide feet. Got freet ones.

If there is a store nearby I recommend going there to experience what works for you

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I like leguanos, I've had 3 pairs so far. but those are bit more narrow than some others, for me they are good though, those are also super lightweight and you can feel the wind on your toes :D bit expensivr but suprr good shoes, german craftmanship

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago

I just took 3 advil because my THC lotion wasn’t up to the task.

Shut up.
