Currently working on sunfish, an open-source infinite whiteboard made in Godot: https://github.com/sockeye-d/sunfish
I tried Godot 1.0 at one point and it blew me away by how fast it was to open compared to 4.3. Godot today is an overly bloated engine and we should all go back to 1.0 (2.0 might be fine too)

Given that it's for Nodevember, it's likely entirely nodes

Anyway it works now, it just needed to be `item_text.substr(r.begin, r.end - r.begin)` instead of `_search_text_label->get_text()`

Specifically, the width of the rectangle it draws is forced to always be the width of `_search_text_label->get_text()` 😢

Wayland maintainers really need to get their act together 💀💀 like sheesh I know you're not trying to be another X but you do not need to spend 5 years bike shedding on the "right" way to implement global window positioning

I wouldn't say this is a particularly intelligible point

Actually, they use GPU instancing for performance. Otherwise, each electron would incur a separate draw call!

It'll give you an error unless you provide the --no-preserve-root flag.
However, rm -rf /* is arguably as destructive to the usability and doesn't actually give a warning 💀

I once tried running cmake --install on my own app. It didn't work, so I (stupidly) ran it with sudo. I'm not sure how, but it bricked my desktop environment, forcing me to rollback a week.

Oh, I see, is ReSTIR just a beefed up importance sampling algorithm?

I still don't understand how ReSTIR works, are there any good (preferably simplish) resources you know of?

On KDE Plasma, most Qt Quick apps also respect the system color scheme. I'm not sure if it's possible to do that without using the actual Breeze widget style though

It looks so good now! Is there any chance Audacity 4 will be able to follow the system color scheme on compatible (e.g. KDE) desktops?

Yep, I normally find that manually converting stuff to a non-Object Variant type and serializing that is Good Enough (hence why I like var_to_bytes)

It unfortunately is still the case, there's no way to avoid loading resources while skipping resources of a certain type (e.g. Scripts)
