i really don't think it should be quite as shocking as it is to have a general feeling that the slop machine sucks regardless of what it is doing
... but the gaslighting is apparently working. it's gotten to the point where i almost want to stop doing the things i have enjoyed for over a decade.

anyways. new thing. idk if i'll finish it but i'd like to
finally figured out the arcane ways of the midi macros. impulse syntax kind of blows but i cant be bothered to switch to mptm for this because it's not unusably bad or anything

I'm honestly at the point where I'm highly considering releasing any emulator projects if I bother to do them under a very permissive license that doesn't permit either a libretro fork or a fork to make it a libretro core. sure it wouldn't be "libre" or "open source" anymore but I can't stand this

what makes this somewhat funny, to me at least, is that most of the big usages of electron i know end up introducing system-dependent native code that has to be ported per-platform anyways, so it ended up not even managing to solve that acceptably, apparently
then again this ragebait argument existed a decade ago and is why electron aka 40 million line of code codebase to attain "portability" is a thing
(to a point i also feel quite iffy about like using godot or something. sure they're lighter but if youre writing a desktop application it feels extra)

saying native applications are dead is probably the biggest fucking ragebait i've seen in a while
like "w-well it too hawd to port across operating systems" then don't. use qt or whatever, hell I'll even accept wxwidgets. theres a reason these libraries exist, because they solve the porting problem

i'm never letting slopulism bros live this one down
I knew Planter was bad news, but Jesus fucking shit christ
the fact people are willing to brush everything off just because "Oh it was a decade ago surely he's reformed right?" doesn't sit well with me at all
a extremely thinly veiled apology for the Nazi tat which later was rescinded isn't change

thinking about how for most of my life i've had to be pushed into some of the better moments kind of feels like a double edged sword
for almost all of these moments i'm extremely grateful i got the push out of my comfort bubble, but for some of them i feel quite conflicted about it

audacity 4 is a premium master class in how you take a extremely good, very respected, piece of software and fuck it up irrepairably with tons of garbage that it didn't need.
and also plant spyware and dark patterns into it, as if it really needed that either (it really didn't)

craziest thing i have read on fedi in a while:
post author posts comment citing casey musatori (a chud) going on yet another stupid rant about oop. someone replies. post author states that "right wingers" are proponents of "clean code".

beginning to really feel like addressing incompatibilities with people or groups is a shortcoming of mine that's driven primarily by my upbringing
i can identify these things, i can put together the reasons as to why i feel that incompatibility exists
but i can't directly bring myself to say it

wayland is a great example of why compromise in software engineering is something you should strive for. in the goal of trying to make a better display system there's now dozens of duplicate protocols to do things which ideally should be common, solely because a compositor dev had some disagreement

honestly i only see myself moving off linux if freedesktop people manage to completely fuck it up and i'm sure as fuck not going to macos or windows over it
don't love linux but it's the least in my way and most distros aren't walking security holes by default like most *BSDs are

it's pretty God damn obvious its just another grift because trumpism is a dying cause. the second the gop finds someone more paletable she'll start grifting for the GOP all over again
