Re:Backups Aren't Simple

I have a weird setup lol.
I use a shared photos library with my partner (so that we have all family photos together) and have a MacBook Air that has Photos being download in raw quality and backups then via Time Machine on a Synology NAS.
Plus, Synology photo sync on my iPhone (backing up on my NAS separately from Time Machine) AND Google Photos on my partner’s (syncing on Google Photos).
Yes it’s horrible, just never had time to clean I up properly but I prefer to have them in multiple cloud locations and locally for now than optimise for having a clean setup.

Hey, author here. Finally found some time to write around my favourite use of AI lately: making games with 0 commercial ambition, with a target audience of me and like 5 more people. Plus modding old ones, automating couch coop tooling, etc. Hopefully this can give someone a few ideas to try too!

Lol. It did, back in the day, with people saying "this is not accurate, since it's only a EU thing".

Thanks, that was my intention (back when I posted it). I added "from EU" just to make it clear—since people would have otherwise said "that's not how it works in the US :p"

I mean... I just recorded a browsing experience? It's the entire experience in general that sucks imho, regardless of cookie consent popups or not.

Author here. That was a mistake on my part, it shouldn't have slipped in :) I removed that section, thanks for reporting!

Re:Automating Visual UI Tests with Playwright and GitHub Actions

Author here. This article is my take on automating visual regression tests of a “modern” web application using Playwright and GitHub actions. The goal is to build a "minimal" testing setup that checks for UI regressions on each pull request and allows selectively updating the baseline images when needed.

Re:Checking if a JavaScript native function is monkey patched
on Monday August 01, 2022 @12:18PM (#32308311)
Off the top of my head:
- Overriding the fetch/XHR API for error monitoring (there's no other way to listen for them unless you use Service Workers)
- Polyfilling features on top of existing APIs
But you might not see them as "justified".
