    Do Windows File Manager search.

    Call infinite_progress_bar()

    It was a shock first time using a search in one of Linux’s file managers and suddenly things started popping up that had the search tag in them. What is this magic?

      File transfers on Windows are also inexplicably slower than on Linux

        I remeber they said to do that on purpose as some (mainly business) people (according to microslop) think the file wasn’t copied/moved when it’s too fast.

        Could be misremebering tho

      On windows there a program called ‘Everything’ that instantly finds files on your computer. Why windows doesn’t use the same method of searching? Who knows
