I don&#x27;t care what anyone says— I absolutely love PHP.<p>I automated my home theatre with it as seen here:
<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=Cc8K6lg7Ag8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=Cc8K6lg7Ag8</a><p>I built a website just for me so I can stream my movie collection anywhere I go, but it also has a button to start playing an automated show in my theatre.<p>I call it the Phantom. When you start a show, it plays a Dolby ad, a dancing hot dog-style vintage drive-in ad, and several random trailers in the same genre before the feature.<p>The Phantom PHP code controls the lights, projector, curtain, and sound system.<p>The lights come up for the credits and the whole room goes to sleep 30 minutes after the presentation.<p>I&#x27;ve only shared it once here before and someone, I&#x27;m guessing a PHP hater, gave it a thumbs down on YouTube.<p>PHP is extremely powerful in my experience and has been very lucrative in my career.<p>One of the best things I ever did was learn how to program with it.
