>7zip>rar
lmao no, 7zip cant handle queueing extractions without breaking and it has no feature to force extraction in the event of a slightly corrupt rar.
>Bash > Command Prompt
not counter parts, both interface with different APIs
>GEdit > Notepad
sublime isnt free but shits over both of them nice try though linux kiddie
>>51550610
>photoshop > gimp
>foobar2k > all
>cuteftp > filezilla

>comparing bash and command prompt
You should be comparing bash and powershell. In that case,
>Powershell > Bash
>>51550610
Clang > MSVC
>>51550682
Bullshit. PowerShell is wonky as hell.
>>51550965
Damn straight.

Notepad++ is the best text editor and it's free.

Seeing you can't read less than signs correctly OP said that Winrar was better than 7-zip.
Which is wrong, but still you were wrong too.
>>51551041

>>51551036
Anytime.
>>51550610
>7zip < Winrar
Oh, you're retarded.
>>51551036
But Anon, he agreed with my post, not yours.
Get back to shitposting.
>>51551056
Get out of my thread, you're ruining my fucking jokes!
Winrar is fucking garbage

I kinda prefer winamp over foobar to be honest.
>>51550669
clementine > foobar
>>51550610
>Bash > CMD

Shouldn't it be Bash > PS?
Linux > Windows NT
