Like the regular version of the app, the Store version offers a 1-month free trial that lets you “experience the full power of WinZip” which should ideally convince a tiny percentage of people to pony up for the annual $49.99 subscription which gets you all the latest updates for a whole year.

$50 a year? How about a big fat "NO"? The freeware 7-Zip will do me just fine.

7-zip isn't "freeware," it's open source (or "free software") which is different from a pedantic standpoint.
Freeware implies no source code availability but no charge to use the software.

Yes, you're reading it right, someone just packed the very old Windows 95 operating system in an Electron app, which can be installed on any platform thanks to GitHub's open-source framework for building and distributing universal binaries on Windows, Linux, and Mac systems.

[github.com] Win95 now available as an Electron app
Well, this happened. I shouldn't be surprised. Given the endless possibilities, it's bound to happen sooner or later.

That's a lot of GB uploaded for a single file.

It's annoying how my laptop sometimes spit out his ethernet cable, and may also refuse to take it back in (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

I wonder if there are desktop screens that allow the user to rotate them by 90° in a user-friendly manner.
If that's the case, they're probably so far in the list sorted by increasing price that I will never see them.

I have one, a Dell U2412M.
It was around $200 or $300.

Also the monitor I actually want is an Eizo EV2730Q, which is 1920x1920 (1:1) so I never have to rotate it. That one is expensive as hell though.

It's a bit weird how HDMI and DVI are compatible with passive adaptors, but only DP++ DisplayPorts are passively-compatible with DVI.|

VESA made both standards, so why didn't they make the entire standard cross-compatible like the third-party HDMI Forum did with theirs?

Because displayport uses a different electrical signalling format which makes designing longer cables less likely to cause problems at given resolutions?

With displayport, there are only a few allowed transmission rates, so testing a cable up to the maximum allowed transmission rate is easy. With DVI/HDMI, the possibilities are endless, and with longer cables data loss becomes more likely at higher rates.

Get thrown off building before using internet.




Fun times.

Microsoft Edge is a browser???!!! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
I thought that was just a viewer for .pdf files.Can it really be used otherwise?
I mean when something using Internet don't use Firefox on my Windows 10, then it load Internet Explorer, and never Edge!
...
were my thought after reading that site, thus ending up being written here.
