2702. Larks: What Duke says is the exact opposite of un-zipping.

Duke: Why do all files have to be zipped, according to you?

*Zaps PFB.*

2703

Well what I was doing is for something along the lines of analytics for a program

[Skimbo 304]

2704

saves memory space on your hard drive, I think.^^

[Korot 6]

2705. Skimbo, your 2704, not '03. And also: zipping files makes them harder/impossible to access for some programs.

[Larks2242 251]

2706. It depends

[Vahr 341]

2707

I only ZIP stuff when I need to archive files that I may potentially use in the future or for low use files. Or of course uploading to the internet.

Doesn't anyone listen to Devo? A got a gut feeling they don't.

Welp, moving forward and going ahead... or was that the other way around?

[Korot 6]

2709. What do you mean by 'listen to Devo'?

[Larks2242 251]

2710. What the heck is Devo?

[Vahr 341]

2711

Thats my question lol

[Korot 6]

2712. And now we've all agreed on the question, now we guess for some answers. Perhaps Muck talks about SC4Devotion?

[Muck308 55]

2713

Isn't it weird how the world did stuff before you guys got here?

Devo

[Larks2242 251]

2714. I thought it was a zip files program

[Korot 6]

2715. I second Larks. Well, I though it had something to do with .zip files, to be more precise.

[Muck308 55]

2716

If you hadn't sniped me, Korot, I would have been happy to let the guessing game ensue. Oh well, now you all know that the 80's were that much weirder.

[Larks2242 251]

No number Muck

2717. I don't listen to 80s music nor know much about it.

[Korot 6]

2718. There is a number Larks, though he indeed didn't post it at first.

[Duke87 1,070]

(2719)

Muck caught the reference. The rest of you guys... yeah. It's a song. "Whip It". Look it up.

(and no, I don't ZIP my files, except to post them on the web)

[citiesxlfan42 27]

2720. All I care about with ZIP files is if they make it to my plugins folder (which is at, like, 5 GBs or something. I have a lot!)

[Vahr 341]

2721

I have 3GB of stuff lol.

[Muck308 55]

2722

I just shoveled for three hours and missed the Pens game.

2723. There seems to be much too much rain for me to really be in Australia, but in Australia I am.

[Duke87 1,070]

(2724)

I had a couple gigs worth of plugins myself (hey, in 2004, that was more of an "achievement"). They should all still be on my external hard drive, along with my cities.

[Larks2242 251]

2725. Yea, can you load Sim City 4 off a Maxtor?

[astronelson 339]

2726. I haven't tried to, but it may be possible.

[Skimbo 304]

2727 My SC4 has had about 5GB of downoads, than it collapsed.^^

[Larks2242 251]

2728 I have around that much too

[Shadow Assassin 336]

2729

Yeah, you can run SC4 off an external hard drive. There's a command line parameter for that (UserDir, I believe)

[Vahr 341]

2730

Yeah thats the command, I think
