i cant login to discord because they forgot to add the 0 key to the numpad
@CauseOfBSOD@fedi.bangsparks.com@lexd0g@wetdry.world i guess you have to wait for it to roll a code with no 0
@CauseOfBSOD i actually just closed discord and opened it again and the 0 showed up but that was my plan yeah
@forgetful_bri@wetdry.world@lexd0g @CauseOfBSOD that somehow makes it worse… Why is the behavior of something as simple as "displaying a keypad" not deterministic‽
@CauseOfBSOD@fedi.bangsparks.com@forgetful_bri@wetdry.world @lexd0g@wetdry.world how did they fuck up a software keyboard this badly
@forgetful_bri@CauseOfBSOD @lexd0g it's honestly impressive.
Is every button somehow being asynchronously created?
Can any button fail to load?
Will the interface flex as needed to make any number of missing buttons look natural?
Can the "submit" button fail to load???
@CauseOfBSOD@fedi.bangsparks.com@forgetful_bri@wetdry.world @lexd0g@wetdry.world i reckon they just made a keyboard without the 0, realised their mistake, fixed it, but left both versions in prod
and when they load its a race condition as to which is loaded
@forgetful_bri@CauseOfBSOD @lexd0g that makes a lot more sense. Still raises questions, but it's definitely more likely.
@CauseOfBSOD@fedi.bangsparks.com@forgetful_bri@wetdry.world @lexd0g@wetdry.world tbh i have absolutely no idea whether or not this is the case, but it is the most sensible explanation that i could come up with
@CauseOfBSOD @lexd0g @forgetful_bri honestly, based on the exclusion of the "/" (division) as well, makes this one wonder if there is a lower row that isnt being shown?
@forgetful_bri@steeps @CauseOfBSOD @lexd0g hmmmm! Maybe an issue with display size? (I have no idea how VR works)
@forgetful_bri @CauseOfBSOD @lexd0g as a regular idiot who recently wrote a software keyboard, yeah I could see them init'ing each button in parallel and if a task happens to fail, it just silently eats the exception
It's how I'd build a prototype proof of concept, it's not something I'd ever ship
