[7:52 18 PM] 🟦 impressive

[7:52:22 PM] 🟩 the windows 10 UI development was the most enormous shitstorm i've seen in a while

[7:52:26 PM] πŸŸ₯ how hard is it to move some fucking settings menus

[7:52:30 PM] 🟩 many people have pointed out that the UI is upgraded piecemeal

[7:52:34 PM] 🟩 oh god

[7:52:36 PM] 🟩 you have no idea

[7:52:37 PM] 🟩 it's so hard

[7:52:41 PM] πŸŸ₯ whyyyyyyyy

[7:52:43 PM] 🟩 i tried to ADD A DROPDOWN

[7:52.56 PM] 🟩 DO YOU WANT ME TO DESCRIBE IN EXCRUCIATING DETAIL WHAT IT TAKES TO ADD A DROPDOWN TO THE CONTROL PANEL?

[7:53:08 PM] πŸŸ₯ I find myself overcome with morbid curiosity

[7:53:09 PM] 🟦 is it like javafx and fxml?

[7:53:14 PM] 🟩 hahahahahahaha

[7:53:15 PM] 🟩 hahahahahahahaha

[7:53:17 PM] 🟩 NO

[7:53:42 PM] πŸŸ₯ describe to me what it takes to add a dropdown to the control panel.

[7:53:47 PM] πŸŸ₯ grabs a pillow and brown paper bag

[7:54:10 PM] 🟦 control panel or settings?

[7:54:14 PM] πŸŸͺ probably some ancient mayan rites

[7:54:18 PM] πŸŸͺ lots of goats

[7:54:33 PM] 🟦 and registry entries

[7:56:54 PM] 🟩 see, first you find the folder that contains the code files for the control panel, and there will be like, 5 of them, each with something like 2000 lines of code, except for one that had 15000 lines of code and I never found out why. Once you find the C++ code file for the specific subsection of the control panel, you must then find the appropriate XAML file that is matched up to this code file, and then search through it to find another dropdown box element you can copy and paste because no one actually knows how any of this works. Then you have to go into a resource file and find a very specific resource ID for your control panel string, and create a new resource ID to me it to. Then, you must find all the relevont C++ code tying the dropdown you copied, and copy and paste all that code, but this time, modify the hooks sa It gets tied to your new dropdown. Then you have to run through 2 seperate specialized compilers to compile the resource filles, and if ANYTHING GOES WRONG, literally ANYTHING, the ONLY ERROR YOU GET BACK is this:

-1 

So after you run around screaming for a DAY because there is no explanation for what the fuck is going on, you give it to your coworker, who discovers that every single number in the resource file must increase by exactly 1, and if there are any holes in those numbers, everything fails completely. Then you can actually finish compiling the special compiler stuff and start bulding the actual codebase through a specialized plugin built for visual studio for the sole purpose of dealing with this fucking codebase, and then you might actually get something to compile.

[7:57.42 PM] πŸŸ₯ WHAT

[7:57:43 PM] πŸŸ₯ THE

[7:57:46 PM] πŸŸ₯ FUCKING

[7:57:47 PM] πŸŸ₯ FUCK

[7:57 59 PM] 🟩 THAT

[7:58:04 PM] 🟩 is how you add a dropdown

[7:58:05 PM] 🟫 >microcucks
==CENSORED==

[7:58:07 PM] 🟩 to the control panel

[7:58:08 PM] 🟩 in windows

[7:58:20 PM] 🟩 and people ask me why I quit that job

[7:58:36 PM] πŸŸ₯ how old is this "specialized plugin"

[7:58:39 PM] 🟦 how do they live?

[7:58:46 PM] 🟩 from what i can tell about 7-8 years, i think

[7:58:59 PM] 🟦 do you have to be dead inside to write code for Windows?

[7:59:02 PM] 🟫 Can we just compile this kind of shit into a doc to then send to zefrank so he can do a vid on True Facts About Microsoft

[7:59:04 PM] 🟩 I think it was based even older IDE they were using so it gets complicated

[7:59:14 PM] 🟩>🟦 Yes.

[7:59:22 PM] 🟦 rip

[7:59:36 PM] 🟩 again it is hard for me to even explain how any of htis works, because most people there don't even know how it works

[7:59:39 PM] πŸŸ₯ microsoft needs to make like mojang and just haul ass to an entirely new codebase

[7:59:43 PM] 🟦 they're bootstrapping shit on more shit

[7:59:44 PM] πŸŸ₯ if mojang can say "fuck the modders"

[7:59:51 PM] πŸŸ₯ then microsoft can say "fuck the software devs" just as well.

[7:59:55 PM] 🟩 See, you don't understand, they keep trying and failing miserably

[8:00:02 PM] 🟩 For example, lets take the build system

[8:00:04 PM] 🟨 Isn't the legacy control panel codebase deprecated tho?

[8:00:09 PM] 🟨 Because of Settings.appx

[8:00:21 PM] πŸŸ₯ "deprecated" is just a fucking label basically

[8:00:27 PM] πŸŸ₯ shit still uh

[8:00:30 PM] 🟩 Yes, that was the new control panel

[8:00:30 PM] πŸŸ₯ well it doesn't "work"

[8:00:34 PM] πŸŸ₯ and it's not "usable"

[8:00:34 PM] 🟩 that was the "new" codebase

[8:00:35 PM] πŸŸ₯ but it's

[8:00:36 PM] 🟨 Oh my

[8:00:37 PM] 🟩 that's why it was in XAML

[8:00:37 PM] 🟦 means "you shouldnt use it but if you do it's all k"

[8:00:38 PM] πŸŸ₯ accessible...?

[8:00:45 PM] 🟩 you think i'm describing legacy code here

[8:00:46 PM] 🟩 i'm not

[8:00:53 PM] 🟩 ... this is me trying to add a dropdown to the windows 10 NEW CONTROL PANEL**___**

Hey, mod here. I haven't seen anything so I'm guessing my app doesn't support mod tools. IL figure out a way to make it work If anyone has any suggestions of android apps with mod features please let me know

the women's teams were previously known as the Lady Gamecocks, this distinction was discontinued in part to eliminate any gender bias in the athletic department and in part to counter misconceptions about the gamecock mascot endorsing bloodsport.

Uhh..I have many questions

As it turns out, no android app supports any moderation related functions yet. I've added the website to my home screen and will keep an eye on the reports from time to time. To the people who use this community, I ask that you please report content that is against the rules and I will endeavour to remove it.

If you're transphobic, you already aren't accepting people for who they are.

Transphobia and actually moderating reports. They never checked the blahaj.zone instance reports and left the admins to deal with them, then complained about how they were dealt with

In both your programmer case and the case of the catholic hospital staff member you have a very clear option, you can not work at that facility. Don't want to write code for military weapons, cool then work somewhere that doesn't do that. Don't want to provide abortions at your work, cool then work in a medical facility that doesn't provide them. Many facilities don't perform abortions just because they aren't intended to, such as clinics etc so you should work there.

Your programmer case also doesn't make sense because extending the metophor you want companies to be allowed to not develop software that is used by the military...they can already do that.

From what I have read, reports go to both the community moderators and the admins. Also it goes to the admins of the instance the user that makes the report is from. For example, if a user from lemmy.world reports a comment, lemmy.world admins can "remove" it, but it is only removed for users from lemmy.world.

If removed by a moderator or admin from the community/instance the report is about, it is removed for everyone.

Wow I really did not expect so many people to offer tips and advice, thank you everybody.

Good to know that female clothing fit shouldn't be too much of a problem, il keep an eye on bust etc in future. In thinking something longer and maybe a little flowy might be a good start for branching out, something like a long cardigan?

Il do some more research on thrifting, I didn't mention but I'm in the UK so it's all mainly online so not many bargains to be had from what I have found. If anybody has tips for thrifting in the UK I'm certainly all ears, jealous of those of you that have large in person thrift stores!
