You know, all this talk about these benefits… when PHP has had this for ages, no BS needed.

I’ll see myself out.

You want to tell me that Postman/whatever is a replacement for feature tests or Swagger?

Oh hell naw

Like what?

I make backends, very complex, yet curl does it all, headers, files, any data, whatever.

Need to test an API? Swagger will help everyone.

You need reproducible tests? Write feature tests.

Need to do many requests to achieve a business goal? Put it into a script. Shell is sufficient for basic needs, use anything that can be interpreted for anything more complex. Though at that point you should have an app to handle distributed states, which is never a fun time.

No, there are DRM games on GOG (or have been anyway).

And Steam also has DRM-free games.

Hey, block me too!

Since the best course of action is not supporting predatory companies, using Linux is THE solution for such problems.

PHP?

Like what?

No weapons for me or the squirrels?

And no one ever tried to restore it.

Happened to me as well, after a year I learned incremental DB backups were wrongly offset by GMT diff, so we were losing hours every time. Fun.

Luckily we never needed them.

And now we have Postgres with WAL archiving and I sleep so much better.

Or Metaverse

They made 1 (one) game engine, and keep propping it up every release.

As if anyone thinks it won’t be something absolutely absurd.

Hey, remember 9/11? War on Terror, Patriot Act, TSA?

That was snoozeville.

No, but it already supports multiple versions of software.

Though I would argue that many systems have dependency cache that should be replicable, specially when you build everything locally, you can pinpoint specific commits, not just versions that may be removed from repos.

But my comment was meant as a reference to building everything locally, as in I know what that’s like.

No Drake pls

I use logseq with nextcloud, works even on Android, 0 issues so far.

Shell scripts have md5 signatures
