I’m a big fan of proxmox

I going find it hilarious that a small amount of cloud costs the same as a hugely resourced hyper converged proxmox private cloud

I’m currently using both but proxmox is the powerhouse

Well you win, this looks like exactly what’s been asked for. Seems pretty cool will give it a try

It has done for many years

PHP is amazing

If you’re thinking of PHP version less than 8 you need to have another look

Totally stateless. Uncached server side rendered response times in double digit milliseconds.

Types

Extremely battle, highly tested frameworks.

Excellent tooling for tdd, bdd, static analysis, automated browser testing, coding standards and auto fixing. Even fully automated refactoring for things like package upgrades (Rector)

Regular, solid, releases bringing updates and fixes

Arguably one of the best package management systems, Composer. And only one, none of this constantly changing tooling that some other ecosystems seem to do

Properly open source platforms to power all kinds of web projects from e-commerce, CRM, social, scraping, analytics, monitoring, API, CMS, blogging

Basically if your target is server side web stuff then it’s really good

Or, you can continue to demonstrate how out of touch you are by continuing with the old “PHP bad” jokes if you want!

Fuck religion and self righteous religious zealots who’ve abandoned reason and humanity

Fuck me, that’s an awful story. Fascism needs to be stamped out

Me

Dyed in the wool sync user

Agreed, especially on videos

The blur is a bad idea

Yeah I’m not liking the blur either. Bring back the red please!

It’s such a big tarnish on Indian culture. Really demonstrates the dark side of human nature in general.

Where’s that screen grab from?

Yeah, I mean just look how well we’re already doing with that /s

Yeah I totally get your point. And if everyone thinks like you we’re all definitely fucked

Oh, we’re all well aware how much you care about the world beyond your borders.

Again, factory farming seems so, totally, horrific it’s obvious that it should be consigned to history.

But feeling that way is something that only a tiny minority of people seem to share. Most people just don’t care.

People love meat and are willing to totally ignore the suffering behind it. Never mind environmental impacts. .

It’s an article about environmental impact

"The impacts of vegans were a quarter of those of high meat eaters for greenhouse gas emissions, and land use, just 27% of the impacts for water pollution, 46% for water use and 34% for biodiversity. "

But let’s be honest, you probably dont care, no one seems to care. People who do care are unusual and caring and taking action is unusual and might even earn you derision.

Personally I’m still trying to figure out whether there’s any point in trying to change anyone’s mind. I have a feeling it’s a hopeless waste of energy, which is terrible. If the people do do care lose all will to try to encourage others to see what seems obvious then nothing will get better, it will probably get worse.

I think it’s easier without drugs and alcohol enforcing a chemical come down that’s very hard to avoid.

Does lasting mean perpetual and without breaks, or does it mean a default happy state that can of course be interrupted by life events but that will naturally revert to a default state of happiness?

Happiness simply requires you to be thankful for what you have. Not just physical objects but relationships, past times, opportunities, ideas and space to be yourself.

Most of us forget how short life is.

No safety

It’s called expectations management. This was when you see the small amount of safety, you’ll be pleasantly surprised
