gollark: What? I wasn't DOING that.
gollark: All pocket calculators are the same, *if* you use your definition of pocket calculator, which requires them to be the same.
gollark: I think I will just go for storing old stuff compressed and hope it doesn't cause problems.
gollark: git would really not be a good choice:- the flat-hierarchy thing would probably be problematic, I hear filesystems do not like directories with tons of files in them- would have to deal with git's bad CLI- would have to incur the significant overhead of running an external process to do stuff- no easy way to do on-disk encryption (for SQLite, I can swap in SQLCipher easily)- external state (in git) means more complex code still
gollark: Now, I *could* overhaul it to use text files and git, but that would be extremely annoying.
