The class cSplashPotionEntity has a function named SetEntityEffect that wants a instance of class cEntityEffect. But it has only static functions. Can I remove the function?

The PR backlog could do with some reviews soon, before they get taken over with conflicts. Anybody interested?

I have to admit I'm already fighting a burnout on reviewing the code. I'm trying, but the more I do, the less I'm compelled to take part in Cuberite altogether

[NiLSPACE]

Don't get yourself sick. Cuberite has become a bit too large for the amount of developers working on it.

I agree, take a break and climb a tree! (as in, take care of yourself, not as in your reviews are unwelcome)

At any rate, I start a real job at the end of September at which point my incessant flood of PRs will likely die down, so that should be less stressful.

Pity, the Purge plugin removes entire threads, so by Purging the spammer who got through yesterday, I also removed the super-witty comment by @lkolbly in one of those spam threads. Anyway, thank you for the laugh

Also, good luck with your job. Something IT-related, I hope - anything else would be a waste of your talent.

[lkolbly]

Aye, I figured it'd be auto-wiped eventually, but I'm glad someone got a laugh out of it

Thanks, I'll actually probably be working with C++ (which, incidentally, I've never really liked as a language - much too clunky, yet I keep ending up messing around with it). Either way, hopefully some of my experience here will carry over, and I'll be able to put some sort of skillz to good use.

I've become one of the three most dangerous things in the world [1] yesterday. I grabbed a soldering iron and went to fix stuff. Had a broken RC transmitter that didn't transmit, and a broken USB joystick with frozen sticks ("stickstick"?).

In the end, I have a USB joystick made out of the old transmitter that can be used for flying simulators. Unfortunately the joystick's circuitry is really bad and it can sense only 8 levels in each direction, which is too low for any decent flying. So it can be said, >> The operation was successful, but the patient died. <<
