I have found that SQLite can be faster than using text or binary files, confirming their claims here: https://sqlite.org/fasterthanfs.html

How to quantify which font is "best" is a tricky question. I do flip through available programming fonts on occasion just to see if something feels right. A recent favorite is Monaspace Neon from Lettermatic. One detail actually is that I find I like zeros that are noticeably different than an uppercase letter 'O'. In Monospace Neon for example the zero has a dot in the middle.

Love it or hate, it is better than what traditional broadcast television has become. Cannot even watch a TV channel on the television nowadays. It is all just advertisements, sometimes stretching past 5 minutes. Even with youtube advertising more, it is not as painful as watching any kind of show or movie on a television.

The ad frequency and lack of variety is bad enough, but streaming services have gotten very lazy with choosing when to play them. Sometimes an entire show plays them 5 seconds ahead of the clear fade to black for the break, then plays the fade as soon as the commercials are over. Yarr.
