    The exact amount of virtualization overhead you will experience depends on several factors, including the resources allocated to the virtual machine (such as memory and CPUs), the complexity of the guest operating system, and the workload being performed in the virtual machine.

    Hi, From a quick search, there's nothing native for NodeBB but there is a plugin that might help. What do you think @ollipuu ?

    @JonB said in Qt thread usage: Ubuntu, GNOME, and I never know whether it's Xorg or Wayland!). Personally I'd strip the guts out of it to make sure that wayland crap is thoroughly disabled and then throw gnome out the nearest air-lock...then run my test under a minimalist window manager: ie twm, fvwm, openbox, etc.

    @Aliviya said in difference between Work item, boards and sprints in Azure Devops: What is the purpose of using boards and sprints? To turn the creative artistic software development process into assembly line work, where your productivity can be purely judged quantitatively, instead of qualitatively.

    If you have a good experience with PyQt5, then you may already have a solid foundation for working with Qt. PyQt5 is a Python binding for Qt, while C++ Qt is the native language of the Qt framework. Switching to C++ Qt may be a good idea if you are looking for more job opportunities in the software development industry, as C++ is a widely-used language for developing desktop applications, and Qt is a popular framework for building cross-platform applications. The demand for C++ Qt developers may vary depending on the region and industry. However, Qt is widely used in various industries, such as automotive, medical devices, and consumer electronics, so there may be opportunities for Qt developers in those fields. Additionally, many software development companies that build desktop applications may also use Qt. Ultimately, the decision to switch to C++ Qt depends on your career goals and personal interests. If you enjoy working with PyQt5 and Python, and are able to find job opportunities that align with your skills and interests, then there may not be a need to switch. However, if you are interested in exploring new opportunities and expanding your skillset, then learning C++ and Qt may be a good option for you.

    @gandsnut Ok. so it looks like whatever MS app is is pulling in its own versions of system libraries instead of using the default ones. Maybe its time to go to the application support channel for that tool. It's not a Qt specific question at this point.

    While a go I did something like this in qml, I just made a video It's from one of my projects, the code in here Basically it's a qml parent Column, with expand / collapse widgets child Columns, wraped in a xxxItemFrame.qml component which abstracts "Open" and "Close" states and their animation transitions.

    @Chris-Kawa You, as a user of plex, shouldn't have to fight their wars for them. If they want to keep you as a customer they should find a way to make it work, either through working with Qt Company (because they are their customer, not you) or doing whatever needs to be done themselves. I fully agree with you. Sadly it seems Plex, as you can probably tell from the forum replies from their employees, was much less cooperative than we thought they would be so we tried to "help them out" thinking Qt maybe lost the email flow. It seems to be a legitimate Qt employee as the 2nd Plex Employee seems to be sharing confidential screenshots with him so it seems we got the ball rolling. If anything maybe lit a small fire under Plex's bum. (I'm the one who contacted Qt by email.) Thank you for your time, it seems that Plex decided to mostly ignore Qt's response and somewhat attempt to gaslight the situation with the "Plex Corporate" side of things and lock the thread. This situation is eye-opening and I'm spreading the word and will probably be moving my business to my money to Emby. I wish you a good day.
