Macos' patch command is outdated and doesn't work with some modern patches. Homebrew has a gpatch (GNU's patch) which is up to date and the composer PHP utility takes advantage of this automatically if it's installed. #til

Wine32 on elementaryOS 7 or Ubuntu 22.04
x86 games, like Championship Manager 01/02, might not install on this OS which cannot install wine32 due to system conflicts. This means apps like Bottles (Wine wrapper) cannot select a working Wine version.
To get around this, install the PlayOnLinux flatpak, which has an option to change the current Wine version. This will let you pick x86 versions, which install wine32 inside the flatpak. After which the installer will run.
If you get prompted to insert the CD use this trick to copy the the files into a virtual CDROM

Taskfile 2.0.0
I've released Taskfile 2.0.0, a task runner using taskfiles containing bash functions.
It's a nicer menu and shorthand for sourcing a bash file with functions.
The latest version contains a few small changes. As I renamed system tasks, semver dictates a new major version is called for:
Breaking change: inbuilt tasks (_edit, _edit-local, _help) are now prefixed with underscores so they're hidden from the Task list.
- New: hide your own helper tasks by prefixing their function name with underscore
- New: edit your local taskfile by running t _edit-local
- General tidying up
To update simply git pull if you git installed it, or replace the Taskfile.sh script some other way.

While Palworld allows for online play, its huge concurrent player numbers were not the result of its developer carefully cultivating a fear of missing out (FOMO) among players.
A chill game that’s not causing mental health issues, genius.

I've archived my php-activate project as I encountered a breaking bug between the version of PHP used and
composercommands. I'm not prioritising looking into this right now, and switched back to usingupdate-alternatives. #projects #phpactivate -
Sometimes I want to monitor a page for changes, for example news articles where the publication has contacted someone for comment. This week I'm trying out Distill Web Monitor as a browser extension and optional desktop app and it has nice features such as a very extensive notification system (desktop, email, audio) and visuall diff, monitoring of specific parts of the page etc.
Just a tip if you're looking for something similar. #software
