Look, this is a rant over bad archiving practices, that's why it's posted in s/Rant
Because yes, it's bad practice to directly zip the content of a directory, because then it forces the user to check every single time if the "zipper" did the retarded thing before extracting anything, and because the user ends up defaulting on systematically using the alternative option for extracting, ie create a new folder/extract over there, instead of simply using extract. It's more bs getting in the way everyday because what? Because some moron might have zipped his project like a dork
There's no debate beyond this one, this isn't a "help me extract my shit" call for help
Who's retarded now?
Who's retarded now?
You are.
You can keep bitching about it or you can pick up a habit to prevent it. Your call.
I’m not debating, you are. Pick up the fucking habit or don’t. I could care less. My rule of thumb is always specify an output path when possible. If you don’t find it useful then just ignore it. Going off about using windows is pretty much a perfect example of retarded.
Oh, I'm going to "pick the fucking habbit"?
Well no, sorry, the shitass zip archive and its content belongs to the trash bin end of story, because the author is obviously retarded anyways, because nobody but retards directly zip the content of the project's directory, that's the default position, that's the standard thank you very much good bye
That's how it works, that's the default position, you can't make a proper zip archive, chances are the whole project is shit because you have shit for brain
And no I'm not going to mkdir a new directory and type unzip -d path to the fucking newly created directory every single time I need to extract something, just in case a moron like you can't fucking zip his project properly
End of stupid debate
Have fun debating yourself.
