I've been using bandcamp and normal music playing apps. Always hated Spotify.

Drinking less is probably good. I doubt that automatically leads to less dating.

Reverse anal?

Is that where you push your ass inside someone's dick?

Strictly speaking, DEI absolutely does NOT cover all "minority" hires. DEI is when we say, "We need more people of group X regardless of all other factors." I really doubt they married their wives for the sake of diversity. So they're nit DEI.

I happen to be a ham expert and this is unlike any ham I've encountered. Verdict: hero dog.

Nice. Maybe now Microsoft will respond by ~~offering non-subscription options~~ inventing a new proprietary industry-standard file format so their bloated ransomware remains mandatory.

This is the answer.

After like 80 years you probably think you're safe.

 
 

I'm making an RPG in C++ and the items (loot/gear) will have immutable base versions, but then the player can get instantiations of them which can change with use and modification. These mutable instantiations will be saved in the DB. But I'm wondering if the base versions should be defined in JSON, or a separate DB (with the same schema), or maybe the same DB (seems dangerous), or if I should just hardcode them in C++ in the ItemFactory.

How have you approached this problem in your games? How do game engines do it? I'm using SDL2 so I'm doing most of these systems from scratch.

Why I’m learning C++ (oldmoney.pattmayne.com)
 

I'm a decent developer, but with only a couple years' professional experience and no formal training. I'm looking for open source projects to contribute to (ideally pick one or two and get dedicated to them).

I'm open to small or large projects.

I'm using this as my source of options:

But I'm curious if there are other ones, or if you all have ideas about which ones are needing and deserving help.

Thanks!
