    Yes, I’ve done that, but I don’t want more icons on desktop and I’m out of room on the taskbar for even more goddamn icons. Unfortuantely the muti-account-containers isn’t quite what I want, and the other suggested plugin hasn’t been updated in 2 years and also requires a separate binary download to work, which just screams malware and if off the table entirely. Thanks for the suggestion any how. I’m still looking. Cheers!




  • No he’s right even while Matt M is being a massive piece of shit and ruining the WP community cohesion. DeliciousBrains iirc was the original ACF dev org that was bought out by WPE who do a lot of cornering dev using buyouts/investments and then go about with their internal commercialization of tooling built on GPL without contributing to the upstream platforms. WPEngine still aren’t the good guys, they’re just the victims in a case where the expected good guy WP founder and Automattic leader Matt Mullieswaggiesomethingrather turned out to be bad guy that is just as ethically and morally compromised with a little more salt for flavoring.


  • You’re looking at the full mc package rather than just mcedit. Even then, Midnight Commander is absolutely worth that whopping 7.9MB of space it takes for all the functionality it provides.

    Openwrt is not an example to use to compate against a package size, as it’s target built to fit into small firmware storage spaces on all sorts of random hardware. That’s comparing existential philosophy with oranges.

    Would you download a car?








  • This is a good quote, but it lives within a context of professional code development.

    Everyone in the modern era starts coding by copying functions without understanding what it does, and people go entire careers in all sorts of jobs and industries without understanding things by copying what came before that ‘worked’ without really understanding the underlying mechanisms.

    What’s important is having a willingness to learn and putting in the effort to learn. AI code snippets are super useful for learning even when it hallucinates if you test it and make backups first. This all requires responsible IT practices to do safely in a production environment, and thats where corporate management eyeing labor cost reduction loses the plot, thinking AI is a wholesale replacement for a competent human as the tech currently stands.
