No major update for the last couple of days. Still working on some problems with the event loop. Going to have something more after the weekend.

I got sidetracked a little over the past couple of days dealing with my overheating laptop. It is a pretty new machine but unfortunately came equipped with one of those defective Nvidia 8000 series GPUs. The damn thing heats up like a toaster. I already got Asus to replace the motherboard and GPU in November but now it seems the CPU is overheating. I guess it is a combination of poorly designed chips and bad cooling. Luckily for me, my warranty expired last month. My laptop is out of commission until I can find a good cooling solution so I’ve have to reset my Linux install on my desktop.
