Not really. If the services that grant you access to your own hard disk ever go under, you lose it. You do not have access to the files. You're effectively paying for a licence to play the game for a finite amount of time, for the same (if not higher) price that physical media used to cost.

That's just, like, your opinion man.

It shouldn't be the case that this is relied upon. There needs to be a cultural shift in the industry back to physical - or at least, preservable - media.

Thanks for answering all the questions in here. Fascinating work.

You do it then, if it's not rocket science :) or donate to the project, clearly you have a lot of it to spend by making demands of peoples' free time.

Correct. You're welcome to mirror or host a private one. Cargo makes it _relatively_ easy to do (saying this as somewhat of a cargo hater).

Ah yes, the for-profit companies that trained their commercial models off of all our open source code from the last 50 years need more money from us.

You can disable language checks under the paragraph or character tab for the text item (I forget which). A little annoying but at least makes them go away.

Usually when I'm working in one part of the codebase and I have sample data or something at a specific path on my local machine and Im testing the same thing over and over again will I make a Makefile or something and info/exclude it to help me keep focused. That's one way I use it.

There are. Socket, Aikido, and a number of others do this all the time.

They're the American (perhaps other places) equivalent of the little wire ties, almost exclusively used for bread. They're supposed to be quick to close the bread bag back up but in my experience they're I'll equipped for that purpose as they either break or maul the plastic.

I thought they were commonplace until I moved outside the US; at least here in Germany I never see them.

As kids you'd break off one of the half-circle parts, stick it on your finger and flick it to make a makeshift ninja star.

For the target country, i.e. the country with the rental. The comment I'm responding to implied it's also bad for the extractor's own home country, and I was asking how that could be if the money is being injected into their local economy.

Which is the target country. Not what I'm asking about.

But what about their home country?

Seems nobody has read the comment I'm responding to. I understand this part. They're saying it is detrimental to the home country. Why?

I understand why it's not great for the target country. I'm asking why GP said it was bad for the home country.

Genuine question: how so? I'm not familiar with the economics of this.

No. I'm just saying, there decades worth of more PHP discourse than there is swift discourse.
