Never forget what they've taken from us.
Megabonk, my beloved...
No worries, I wasn't as clear as I could have been, for sure.
MetaFilter literally used Adobe Coldfusion to put together their site and the site is still using ColdFusion as of 2025. There wasn't "backend development" in the same way there is for projects like Lemmy, Piefed, Mastodon, and so on. MeFi is only just considering rebuilding the site from scratch since 2024 and the main head of that exploratory project has been MIA for several months now.
You're right, it doesn't have to mean no development, I was really just referring back to MetaFilter as an example. A site can work without updates for a long, long time, especially if the core of the site is off-the-shelf stuff like PHP, CSS, and HTML, which is what MeFi largely is made up of.
This is the answer. Pretty sure, for example, MetaFilter is running bespoke code for their forum (which means no development at all), and it's been online since 1999.
When you do it for work, you log what you have changed each time you make a change to try to fix it, and you log what you revert, so you can keep track of what you have tried, what worked, and what didn't and have a clearer idea of what the solution was.
Sometimes it really does take a while to nail down though, and sometimes it isn't entirely clear why what worked worked. Especially if you're a junior network engineer without as much experience.
"temporary" and the court won't rule on it until after the election

It's Mastodon though. They were publicly forced to admit that they used Mastodon and they're just not federated.
I am glad I kept around my old pirated copies of Rosetta Stone in various languages for this reason.
Good job!
No, Anna.
Got a list of the mods used or does the client automatically download the required mods when connecting? Like others here I dropped it shortly after the 1.0 release and finishing the game rather quickly.
