I have just started using GitLab and all is good for me at the moment. It's ads-free and and you can have virtually unlimited public and private repos. It only supports Git for version control, though.
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!

VSO?
I use their Git for my personal projects. It's especially nice because it's well-integrated with VS2013.

I might be a bit bias as I am moving to Sydney to start work at Atlassian (The guys behind bitbucket) in a couple of months, but I keep several projects on bitbucket and have never had a problem.

I use Assembla[^], it features 1 Project, Unlimited Users, Unlimited Repositories and 500mb Storage for free.
Fits my needs as I can make subfolders if I want to host more than one project. It only gets in the way if you want to manage teams that differ between projects.

I really like BitBucket.org. Very easy to use, especially if you also use their Git client, SourceTree.

I use assembla (www.assembla.com), they have a free plan with unlimited repository and a free private project.

Yesterday I bought new laptop which comes with Windows 8.1 64 bit edition. I'm able to install, run both 32 & 64 bit softwares(Ex. VLC). Which is recommended? 32 or 64 bits? Reason(s) please.
In my old laptop, already I have a big collection(around 5-7GBs) of 32 bit softwares. So if 64 bit is recommended, I'll download 64 bit versions of those softwares. Else, I'll use the same collection from my old laptop.
Based on my search I got few results on 64 bit like Memory allocation(not limited to 4GB), Don't support old drivers(32 bits), etc.,
Your opinions please. Thank you.
This is the first time I use 64 bit OS for my personal use.

As far as i know you should stay with 64x because you can, 32bit sw should run on it too, so why even think about grading down ?
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

I'm new to 64 bit so this thread

As far as I know given you can process 64 bits at once it would be better staying at 64 versions...
i.e. I'm using handbrake and MKVMerge GUI to process films to be able to see them on the smarttv... with 64 bits versions everything goes smoother and faster.
Enjoy!

I remember the same question being asked going 8->16 and 16->32. If it's supported then use the bigger words, it makes sense and usually the new shiny is better then the old shiny; unless it's an iPhone.

Hey, don't be so down on the iphone.
The latest one is almost as good as the phone I bought two years ago.

With the added bonus that if it's too big for your pocket you can fold it up

Yes, I miss foldy phones, so it's nice of them to bring that back.

64-bit Graphics and video apps should theoretically work more efficiently, because they have the potential to access memory in bigger chunks, but I have to admit that I've never noticed any difference in performance.

This is what I want. Yep, I'm gonna use some graphics softwares. Also few video apps.

From a security standpoint. 64bit addressing makes ASLR[^] a lot more effective making it harder for attackers to exploit software.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The only reason I can see that you might want to install SOME 32 bit software is if you have to support a solution where a file format is different (e.g., Access). In such cases you can still install 32 and 64 bit side-by-side.
Go 64, you'll only regret it later if you don't.

The answer that you don't want to hear: It depends.
In general, use the 64 bit version because of all the reasons stated above.
However, in some cases (albeit fewer and fewer these days as 64 bit has become mainstream) the 64 bit versions will not have the same feature set as the 32 bit version. Anything with a large plugin ecosystem will generally suffer from this as the plugins will have to be recompiled as 64 bit and that's up to the plugin developer to do, not the platform developer.
ex: If you could get a 64 bit version of Firefox, but Adblock only worked on the 32 bit version, would you really want to upgrade?

32-bit software run on 64-bit if the drivers are available. If you have some special software you should take care.
I would stick to 64-bit because it is the future and has more address space ...
