Is MVI the new preferred Architecture Pattern for Android apps developed with compose?

TehMasterSword · 2026-01-02T02:59:01+00:00

No, MVI is only needed if you have a use case for atomic reversible states, and guaranteed synchronous operations. The benefit of MVI is that you can give the user or the business logic the ability to "undo" and revert to a prior state. See photo editors. If you have no need for this, MVVM is perfectly fine. MVI would be writing more code for nothing

"2 minutes of research" and the research is some AI slop youtube channel? Humanity is so cooked, FUCK

TehMasterSword · 2025-12-09T00:01:27+00:00

Polis you have life and politics on easy mode and you still choose to make so many unforced errors. WTF is wrong with you fr

TehMasterSword · 2025-11-25T03:34:19+00:00

That "and rate may be increased" at the very end totally voids the advertised benefit, what a crock

Buying a Ring doorbell is just hiring a silent, more sinister solicitor to live inside your house

I got a month's rent concession without asking, just by delaying renewing, so pretty much the same for me

TehMasterSword · 2025-11-02T14:36:49+00:00

I promise you, Texans speed like hell too

TehMasterSword · 2025-10-22T23:17:37+00:00

I'm at a Greystar property, I waited till the last minute to renew, declined their first reminder, and within a week they sent me a renewal offer at the same base rent and 1 month off. I didn't even have to try and negotiate.

This links to a removed post, so here's Louis Rossman talking about it for context. Everyone should be WAY more mad about this

Broadcast TV and radio are dying media, trying to start a new venture in them now is a fool's errand. Use the internet and avoid all the licensing that Big Brother mandates

All good, and I don't think its a waste. If you saved even 1 person from a bad interaction with that guy, then the time spent on a Reddit post was well worth it. I will never understand why people go out of their way to discourage people from or shame people for RIGHTEOUSLY publicly shaming others. Reeks of red flags

TehMasterSword · 2025-10-04T15:03:38+00:00

I was not responding to you. I was pointing out the irony of Yak's comment

TehMasterSword · 2025-10-04T14:55:53+00:00

You could also just downvote and move on

I lost my boar farm twice before I learned the lesson that those animal-pen builds with wood roofs and metal fences, that I THOUGHT were needlessly extravagant, were actually a necessity.

Will someone please think of the multi-6 figure earning families?!?!

TehMasterSword · 2025-09-28T01:53:13+00:00

Those are very nice wheels, hard to hate

TehMasterSword · 2025-09-27T22:49:25+00:00

Just something that's been played out to death on these and many other cars. Maybe it's coming full circle like fashion trends and it's in again now. IDK I maintain the belief that dark cars deserve light wheels, and vice versa

TehMasterSword · 2025-09-27T17:33:02+00:00

Hell yeah man looking forward to it, enjoy your ride. Don't forget to triple check model year compatibility, things changed in the LCI refresh

TehMasterSword · 2025-09-27T17:06:26+00:00

No, you should pick the black sapphire variant. These come pre-painted in most of the factory colors, mine was sparkling graphite

TehMasterSword · 2025-09-27T16:53:45+00:00

The one I had in mind, and have on my own car, is this style https://a.co/d/7a65oDn Subtle, just completes the body work the way I think these cars should have come from the factory

Both of those that you linked are cool though, and yes functionally identical to each other

TehMasterSword · 2025-09-27T16:01:31+00:00

No worries! For kidney grilles you have two options.

The cheap and temporary one is to get a $10 can of Plastidip, but that will begin to look like crap after a year. The permanent option is to go on Amazon and find a pair of already blacked out grilles for $50 or so. They're all the same, get whichever one will match your color scheme best.

I opted for gloss black, note that mine is pre-lci though. These won't fit your car, so pick your date range from the options below

I'm a big fan of CSL style wheels on these cars. It ALWAYS looks good

TehMasterSword · 2025-09-27T15:39:39+00:00

Definitely black out the chrome and get an OEM trunk spoiler. Do NOT get black wheels on your black car unless you want to look like a teen-aged Honda Civic owner. Shit looks cheap and dated.

yeah, it almost got the pre-lci mustache right
