Not as far as I know, sadly. I wish we’d just defederate from blahaj. That place pretends to be a “Nice safe space for everyone UwU” but is nothing but a breeding ground for hate and negativity. Hexbear at least doesn’t pretend to be a good place …
Average blahaj user if he’s not allowed to be toxic lmao
A company that is known for doing shitty things does shitty things.
Color me fucking surprised.
Honestly, at this point, I have ZERO sympathy for people who are still actively using microsoft products and running into problems.
Linux does give every application time to shut down correctly, but unlike windows, it won’t wait for ages until every process is down. Linux WILL shut down in a certain timeframe, whereas windows waits for years if necessary. In my old job, we all had to use windows and I had times where I clicked shut down, turned off my monitor, grabbed my stuff, left and in the next morning, the PC was still on because Notepad refused to just close lmao.
Intermingling PHP and HTML is one of PHP strengths
Eeeh, no. It’s a bad practice in 2025. That was a good thing a decade ago.
Trying to modify this blocked CSS is going to be wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy easier than trying to modify a bunch of printed HTML strings broken up by multiple nested conditionals. Plus it’s just straight-up easier to read and straight-forward to understand what the function does right away.
True. But I was just looking at the source code of wordpress for 30 seconds. I could probably find worse.
To harp on this even more, one of the benefits of blocking HTML in this way is IDE highlighting.
Which isn’t a problem if you use a template engine - as you should in modern applications.
I can’t think of a single system that doesn’t “stop PHP executing” at some point to output HTML in some way.
Not a single modern system does that. It’s terrible practice and won’t even pass automated code reviews with sane settings.
Your opinion was correct like 10 years ago. PHP7 made a lot of fixes to many of the problems it had and PHP8 improved on it even more. And if you slap a framework on top of it, like laravel, PHP looks awesome.
Bruh that man is literally the ketamine-entity. Why do you even ask?
but oh man in a much better, cleaner, and more sparingly way
I don’t think we’re looking at the same source code. The first thing I see in wp-activate.php:
function wpmu_activate_stylesheet() {
?>
<style type="text/css">
.wp-activate-container { width: 90%; margin: 0 auto; }
.wp-activate-container form { margin-top: 2em; }
#submit, #key { width: 100%; font-size: 24px; box-sizing: border-box; }
#language { margin-top: 0.5em; }
.wp-activate-container .error { background: #f66; color: #333; }
span.h3 { padding: 0 8px; font-size: 1.3em; font-weight: 600; }
</style>
<?php
}
This isn’t better nor cleaner. This is a disaster. A function that stops PHP execution halfway-through, outputs some text and then restarts PHP execution? Hell, I’ve been in the PHP ecosystem for over a decade now and I didn’t even know this was possible and I wish that knowledge was still hidden from me.
Maybe I was wrong by saying that the 4chan source code is better than wordpress, fair. Maybe I should just say both are abominations, I will not judge which one is better and both should be discarded and forgotten.
I can upload a new one. Ping me tomorrow when I’m awake again.
I mean, the source code looks a lot cleaner than WordPress, which is an incredibly sad statement.
Kill WordPress now.
Idk, it’s a hobby. There’s no problem with new distros. If they’re good, they take off, if not, it’s going to be a niche project. No issue at all.
In that case, it would make sense why they are so pro-life - more child slaves to make products. Reminds me of that one family guy episode … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xd6Shxz9UUs
Probably not a fantasy, but it’s gonna cost like 3k bucks lmao
You don’t. This is normal. Ensure key-only auth, ensure you do not login directly as root, maybe install fail2ban and you’re good. Some people move the port to a nonstandard one, but that only helps with automated scanners not determined attackers.
You could look into port-knocking if you want it really safe.
Maybe he plans to torch it, claim it was protestors and get a full refund from his insurance, rinse and repeat?
Linux people tend to have very strong opinions lol. I don’t get the hate either, but I do understand why people dislike the thought of having the same library lying around multiple times. I am one of those “purists”, but that’s why I compile most things from source
It is the best one for people that don’t know a lot about linux. Many people are at a loss when they read basic errors like fatal error: <header>.h: No such file or directory
or ld: cannot find -l<library>
. Flatpak solves a lot of that by specifically including all of it in the installation.
So ye, for non-power users, flatpak is the best package manager. It also has only one downside, which is the increased storage requirement for apps as they have to bring all of their dependencies themselves, which is okay these days as storage isn’t that expensive anymore.
And everything is better than fucking snap if we’re honest for a second.
Since the snow white disaster, rachel zegler.
Also, I can’t really watch til schweiger movies. Or most german “comedy” movies.
