[05:54] schestowitzPowered by the Linux 6.2 kernel series from Liquorix with zswap enabled by default, Nitrux 2.8 ships with the latest KDE Plasma 5.27.4 LTS desktop environments, which is accompanied by the KDE Frameworks 5.105 and KDE Gear 23.04 software suites. In other words, youre getting the best Plasma desktop experience to date!

[09:36] schestowitz[09:36] schestowitzIf you're in the default testing environment your rails cache is ActiveSupport::Cache::NullStore which will always succeed but it doesn't actually store or return anything.
[09:36] schestowitzThere's an almost completely undocumented method called with_local_cache on NullStore that lets you run a block with a MemoryStore instead of a NullStore for the duration of the block. This happens because it prepends the ActiveSupport::Cache::Strategy::LocalCache class. This lets you test one or two things that require caching without enabling it on all tests and slowing everything down.

[09:39] schestowitzIt looks like some of these commands have been added recently to come up to par with pry, and others have been kicking around for a while and just flying under the radar.
