  • Unfortunately, those of us that make games in Unreal Engine are stuck writing a lot of C++, unless we want to do everything in BPs (no thanks, they’re fine, but it’s not coding, and it’s difficult to maintain and refactor for complicated projects, they’re good for taking C++ components and building bigger components out of the base C++ functionality though).

    With that said, UE’s support for C++ is decent. Which is, that as long as you tag all your fields, properties, methods, classes, etc. with some UnrealEngine attribute filter (like UCLASS or UPROPERTY), Unreal will handle the memory management of those constructs for you. Which is nice.

    Unfortunately it has some other limitations to the C++ language that you can’t work around, like disallowing pure abstracts because every C++ derivative class based on any UE construct (Actor, Character, Pawn, etc.) has to be instantiatable in the editor. So no pure abstracts and such.

    In general, I’d give it a 6/10.

    It’s still mostly C++, but some of the things suck less.



  • Narcissists tend to sound the same, because it’s all lies about themselves and over inflating their own achievements because they can never get enough, have enough, do enough, etc.

    Hogan and trump both would have had legitimate things to be proud of/brag about during their hayday; but because they are the way they are, it was never enough. It always has to be about them, and they have to be the best at everything. Their ego is fragile and any challenge to anything they do is met with extreme aggression to try and hide the fact that most of their accomplishments are made up lies.

    Once you start down that path, you can’t walk it back without admitting to every one of the lies you’ve ever told. And they physically can’t do that. Like, their brain will not let them. You’ve seen trump try and acknowledge that he was lying by a judge and the best he can do is admit that the thing he’s saying ISN’T true, but he believes it SHOULD be true, so therefore why shouldn’t he be allowed to say what he personally believes is true, even if nobody else is willing to believe him? He knows that by saying it enough times, people will accept his lies as truth, there’s no reason for him to stop.

    Hogan’s the same way. All Narcissists are the same way. It’s their cornerstone behavior.






  • In 2022, Madison Dapcevich of Snopes, the fact-checking website, investigated Lotito’s claim that he ate an entire airplane. She concluded that, although there are many accounts of Lotito’s consumption of unusual objects, and that he “very likely” consumed such objects on stage as a professional entertainer, she was unable to confirm that Lotito ate an entire airplane, or even part of one.

    Looks like there’s no real record of him having eaten a plane. Likely a tall story he or his cohorts created.


  • Don’t go putting words in my mouth.

    And once again, your accusations are more of a confession here. It just makes you sound pretentious. That hasn’t changed.

    That doesn’t make you a bad person or anything, not saying that, but you come across very much like someone at a social gathering I’d want to avoid like a douchecanoe. :)


  • You didn’t describe anything that was wrong, crass, or inane. You just compared him to two other comedians and said you don’t like any of them.

    Cool, you don’t have to like them. They’re comedians, not everyone had the same sense of humor. They’re not doing any harm to anyone with their humor style. The three people your listed, specifically, are extremely well known in the business as being some of the most lovely people to work with or for (in Sandlers case).

    You don’t sound cool or discerning with your tastes after that explanation, you just sound pretentious.
