Working with PyQT5, I can understand why so many people gravitate towards Electron Cancer. Having things immediately update, without going through some bizarre event processing, makes it a lot easier to do progress bars and other things without the entire UI locking up.

Almost every toolkit is retained mode, and forcing updates is always way harder than it should be.

Kinda upset there just isn't a decent video game theme matrix room occupied or managed by anyone on fedi, so I made one on lain's server

Not going to promise anything, but I felt like it needed to exist.

FediSus, finding things to block! 

So I distracted myself with work and I think I'm pretty much done:

https://fedisus.dokku.hackr.org/

This lists all the instances (that my instance knows off) with MRF reject rules (effectively blocking an instance) and showing a top ranking of who got blocked the most. :blobcatcool:

Public poll ('cause I'm curious of the opinions people have) - for people only attracted to one gender (strictly hetero- or homo-sexual), would you date someone who's transgender and identifies as that gender?

(Please do not answer this if you are trans yourself)

PC users were already frustrating but the tablet world is dumbing down people to a level that feels like either living in limbo or hell.

>Every single step of the way there was complaining instead of actually listening and doing,
Now imagine this is your father, and each time he says "this should work like this" "you don't want to understand that this is not how the majority of people uses their tablets, I want to do it like they do, your way is shit" "I wont ask these people to install X software to do a video conference"

I god fucking despise this logical fallacy of not proposing people to install another software for video chat when the reason for why the other person installed it in the first place was because someone else asked to install it.

Tablets makes boomers even more useless with computers. The amount of intellectual laziness with one of the most important invention of modern age is absolutely staggering. It is crazy how you can use this shit for years and have absolutely no idea how this shit functions in the slightest and not be able to perform the most basic of task on a computer

>No idea how to even reach their e-mails
>No idea how to even enter a web address
>Absolute inability to even explain and replicate anything in the slightest
>Due to everything above, the inability to even adapt to the slightest change whatsoever

And of course, I'm the one stuck having to throw out everything I was doing to babying someone through it that cannot even answer the most basic of questions

@matrix no reason to play new games. Just install PCSX2, theres enough games on that one system to fill a lifetime.
