PeaZip VS hosts

Just saying that 7-Zip is great, both the compression (I use it for most of my data archival, because the higher compression ratio is worth the longer times to compress) and the software itself, pretty much what a good archival program on Windows should be like.

On other OSes, I guess I just use whatever is included with the distro, or something like PeaZip: https://peazip.github.io/

Curious to hear from RAR proponents.

How about just the blue horizontal bars with white text trend?

What prompted this standardization of look? Im seeing it all over now. The fact that I could find two archive utility websites, as example should speak to its ubiquity.

Good for them! Lately I have been enjoying PeaZip[1] since it supports all platforms and a lot of formats. It also has some good UI and helpful functions.

PeaZip is available for macOS.

you need to unzip it, i recommend peazip, its free and fast. heres a link: https://peazip.github.io/

PeaZip is similar to 7-Zip but with a better UI (both are free and open source).

An example. Download about 500 mb big archive from https://database.lichess.org/ You will need PeaZip to extract https://peazip.github.io/ Load database in SCID https://scid.sourceforge.net/ Make basic opening moves Search > Current board Database > Export all filter games > export filter to PGN Give it opening name and save Open that just saved database Search > Header and set filter how you like it Database > Export all filter games > export filter to PGN Give it a name and save Now if you want only games with mate, filter it with Scid vs Pc Search > General > End of game > checkmate Tools > Export all filter games > export filter to pgn

the most advanced tool i know of is universal extractor for windows. Its Open Source and should run on Wine. You could also try PeaZip

Not by default but a blocklist can be found here https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts

While it is now unblocked, the Steven Black list has been blocking a lot of innocent CDNs.

How does this compare to using a hosts file with known ad servers?

like: https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts

I use the Hosts file to block a ton of ads and that works really well. https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts Something worth considering if your ad blocker isn't working well.

The no-tracking project used by RaspAP is shutting down, so we took the opportunity to search for open source blocklist alternatives. Among the best is Steven Black's hosts list: https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts

No idea, api.radar.io is on the block list since January 2020.

The commit's comment is "major update from adaway.org"

You can also use a declarative adblocker like uBlock Origin Lite [1], which only provides the browser with a list of elements to filter, but doesn't have any permissions to read content or perform requests. Or simply use your hosts file to apply OS-wide filtering with no browser add-ons needed: https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts

Be aware that if you use these "passive" blocking methods, there are some sites like YouTube where you will see ads, because in these cases it's necessary to actually manipulate page content to hide them. What you can do is use a traditional adblocker but enable it only for these few sites where the declarative approach is not enough, take a look at [2] for more details.

When I select my custom hosts file, it basically breaks internet. However, if I choose a custom hosts file that is a copy of the dev's default, or if I just add a few lines to it, it will work. If I add too many lines, or use a different hosts file altogether (like the ones recommended by the dev), all connectivity breaks. Of course the latest official LetMeBlock is installed and mDNSResponder killed/restarted. I'm using Dopamine on A12+.
