Why no QML support? Interested in OP's decisions there. Would it just bring in too much bloat?

It would not be the first time a company has dropped Qt overnight, especially with their recent push for royalties on all products.

Does anyone know if the user interface is still Qt/QML?

>In a lot of countries (80%+) taxi drivers are rude, try to price gouge, try to scam you or try to take longer routes.

I have had every experience you explained with Uber. People driving me weird ways around my city to make the trip longer, rude, attempting to add a cleaning charge with no reason, or the classic "Hey if you cancel the ride and give me $10 I can get you there."

Wait, what? How are you going to write a native app with less quirks than Qt? VTK? That's a little disingenuous.

That's incorrect. Sexual orientation is a federally protected class. Belief in white supremacy is not.

The reason being sexual orientation is a protected class. "Belief in white supremacy" is not.

An attack on heavily armed police by one guy with an assault rifle is a pretty good time to talk about gun control.

So are politicians just supposed to reply "That was horrible" and not look at the underlying causes or events that allowed it to happen?

Also, Reddit can't ban them because of the inevitable "LIBERAL WEBSITE BANS PRO-DONALD FORUM" headlines.

So, even though a massive amount of their userbase pushes for genocide against "Mdslimes" or "Kbabs", Reddit admins let them exist.

For anyone who doubts this: next time you see a vaguely or directly racist comment on Reddit, go check where that persons posts.. 75% of the time they're directly from /r/the_donald.

It's a shame I'll never get to use features past Qt 5.4 after their insistence on LGPLv3 and royalties per device sold..

I get that. It just seems like that specific metric could have been over-weighted seeing as how Ford and GM were at the top of the list..
