All desktop software is boomer software. Only unc uses a desktop, and increasingly laptops are also unc tech

Directory Opus. Weird emacses (the All-in-One programs). Sketchy Windows Share-Ware in general.

Things 'Free', 'Pro', 'Professional', 'Premium', 'Suite', 'Center', 'Edition', 'Ultra', 'Max', 'Genius', 'Express', 'Anywhere' suffix and 'Fast', 'Power' prefix in their name
>>
>>109328821
unfortunately almost all channels are encrypted here, save for state television.
>>
>>109329409
>'Fast', 'Power' prefix
along with 'Total', 'Ultra', 'Mega', 'Double', 'Rapid'.

That's how you somehow know it's shitware.
>>
>>109328821
The arch-boomer software is undoubtedly emacs
Double commander is still useful nowadays but it’s pretty boomer as well

For me, it's Total Commander

When I see kids at work how they work with files, omg, like they use copy/paste idk how they manage to do anything like that.

80 years old guy that does maintenance of some obscure sawmill software uses this to send patches.

>>109331153
you don't use copy paste?

I use both copy/paste and F5/F6 in FAR, don't see any problem with either

>>109331195
cp file.txt ~/path/to/another/folder
with autocomplete you do this in 7 seconds, with macros you do this in 1 second

>I use both copy/paste
yeah can't wrap my mind around it, I'm gen-x tho.
Never in my life did use copy/paste with a file.
>>
>>109331204
It could automatically split archives into multiple files so super easy to handle big files with bunch of floppies.
zip could no do that at the time but zip was faster and had better compression ratio.
once software distribution moved from floppies to cd's arj died.

>>109328821
only someone with very low intelligence could come up with an interface like that

>have you tried working
no, pay for my tendies and fuck off
>>
>>109331244
I took a look at PKZIP and it does have an option to span over multiple disks, but it requires archiving onto said disks directly, which is more awkward than being able to specify volume size and then copy the resulting pieces to disks separately.
