       How is it that VB was measuring things in twips for scaling reasons as far back as 1998 and in 2025 windows still can't handle DPI scaling worth a damn?

       @foone What's wrong with it? I love the display scaling feature in Windows and was very frustrated when I discovered MacOS basically can't do it at all without third party software.

       @williamoconnell Consistency is terrible. Half my apps scale, the other half don't. And having two monitors at different scales means sometimes apps try to render at DPI-scaled on a non-scaled monitor, or they try to resize the instant they cross the boundary, which makes them "stick" to the wrong monitor

       @foone also I'm pretty sure it did so long before 1998 but lolI feel like DLUs make more sense.
