• A tour of CLI tools for installing Java and creating projects

  On Windows: scoop is a package maanger which supports Java version management. It provides a Java wiki with detailed instructions. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Managing python projects like a pro!

  Scoop is a command-line installer for Windows, aimed at making it easier for users to manage software installations and maintain a clean system. It's designed with developers and power users in mind but can be beneficial for any Windows user looking for an efficient way to manage software. Basically it makes our life easier when it comes to software installation of any sort. Scoop support installation for large... - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• bruhJustLemmeDownloadTheSdk

  Use a package manager! Assuming Windows (since it's the odd one out), get yourself some scoop then just scoop install openjdk. No need to navigate to a website, download bundleware, click next-next-next and accidentally install a virus like some caveman from 1997. This has been a solved problem since ancient times!

• How easy is it to setup Neovim and Nvchad on windows?

  Should be easy enough, I installed neovim on my windows machine with scoop (you can even get nightly if you want), it's basically a one line install. You can also do a manual install if you want, but you don't have to. It took a little fiddling for me because I wanted to install scoop as well as all applications onto my D drive rather than my C drive, but nothing too crazy. I never got NvChad on my windows...

• Calibre – New in Calibre 7.0

  I update it with Brew on macOS and Scoop [1] on Windows (but I guess it is included in other package managers such as chocolatey). Of course, a built-in auto-updater would be good, but a packaged version is a nice workaround for me. [1]: https://scoop.sh/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Is ultracopier still the very best in terms of open source alternative file copying/merging tool ?

  I used robocopy on a slow network to transfer many gigabyte of data; properly configured with retries and everything worked great. Don't know about your merge needs, so take a look into it and do some tests before actually running it. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Is copying the best way to transfer large amounts of files?

  If you're copying a ton of files that vary in size, using a command prompt robocopy with the multi-thread parameter can make it so you are copying multiple files simultaneously and max out the bandwidth of whatever connection you're using (usb, SATA, ethernet, etc). Source: almost 2 years ago

• Game data to new PC

  This would probably work well. Oblivion mod managers edit load order by modifying dates on the files, and I'm not sure if dragging-and-dropping would keep that info. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Migrating file servers - Robocopy syntax question

  Yes, /mir also deletes files and directories that have been deleted from the source. Here's a list of the switches. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Robocopy Hell - Copy data without NTFS permissions

  My friend you helped me big time. I was able to test more and the U flag on /COPY was the culprit here. Which isn't a huge deal for me so using /COPY:DAT worked great. Turns out this is the default switching for /COPY anyway according to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/robocopy. Source: almost 2 years ago
