I use as few dependencies in my project as possible.
In my current, rather large project, the only actual dependency I am using is for Syncfusion's WPF control suite.
I have an additional Open Source project, which I ported to VB.NET so all of my source is consistent (it is an Open Source project) and the Firebird Database Provider, which I also include the source code for. This latter project is in C# and is the only one I decided not to port since most people would not be looking at it anyway. However, it is compiled with the rest of the project so that if I want to upgrade my framework version, there are no issues.
When I upgrade the database engine to the latest version, I will probably just use the DLL for the data provider.
All this being said, I attempt to minimize project dependencies as much as possible since they can and do cause issues when updating and\or upgrading one's project.
As one who came out of the mainframe environments we all learned one thing about our coding and project infrastructures... Keep it as simple as possible so the least experienced member of a team can quickly come up
to speed with the project.
Today, however, many developers seem to regale as to how complex they can make their code and project infrastructures by using much of then newer and arcane coding constructs, which really do very little for performance in most cases while making the source code more ambiguously complex. At the same time, projects are no longer offered as separate versions on a per framework basis but are all combined into one solution with a lot of directives to produce all of the necessary assemblies on a per framework separation. All this makes a project difficult to read and understand...

I haven't quite figured out what language it thinks I should be using, but all my English words are red-lined now. No idea how this happened, checked my language preferences and they are US-English, refreshed the browser page multiple times. Well, I guess for bugs, its fairly benign, not like it launched nuclear missiles, and I'm almost the point where my brain is ignoring all the red-lining.

Oh, I do say Ole Boy, There is only one right and proper English in this world and that is the Kings English. Ones spell checker should always respect and reflect that simple fact. It is such a trifling and awfully embarrassing proposition you make that it should represent anything from the uncivilised colonies.

Somehow, every once in a while, Outlook seems to detect I've written something in French and the squigglies will adjust themselves accordingly (allowing me to right-click to place accents, etc). At other times it remains completely oblivious and place squigglies under every word that doesn't happen to be spelled the same in English. I cannot find any sort of on-screen indicator as to what language it thinks I'm currently working with.

I'm only on episode one because my anxiety is such where I have to watch it in short bursts, but I'm super impressed so far.
The raiders were downright terrifying. In the game(s) they are soft targets I use to develop my character's combat skills. It's kind of disappointing actually. In the series, holy hell they are scary. That's more like it!
Anyway, even if you've never played the games, Walton Goggins is worth the price of admission. If you liked Westworld give it a shot. Some of the same people involved in making it, and it shows.
(forgive me if you saw my previous attempt at posting this - it went in the wrong section because I'm slow this morning)

I see it's offered on Prime video - I'll check it out! Thanks for the tip.

I there a way to see it without having to register to yet another streaming service ?
I f*cking hate all those streaming silos..

I think Amazon has a free, ad supported service it's available on but I can't remember the name of it or even where I heard that - it was in passing.

No; Amazon now has a paid-for, ad-supported service. If you want to get rid of the ads, you have to pay extra.

I started watching it last night on Prime (I subscribe anyway) and it's interesting to say the least.

Are you asking whether (a) there is another streaming service you're already subscribed to that is carrying it, or (b) is there any way you can watch it for free.
I'm sure the series cost quite a bit to produce. So I think option (b) is highly unlikely, unless you're willing to put on your pirate hat and eyepatch.

No, like on a regular network cable network.
I'm old school.

I am too, believe me.
But a series produced by a streaming service going onto cable network? Don't hold your breath.

In FO3 they aren't that soft as targets go. It doesn't help that weapon accuracy in that game is pure s**t (even maxing out Guns and keeping them fully repaired).

We'll have to disagree there.
Early game, super duper mart raiders is how i get hunting rifles and ammo.
And then grinding the raiders in Bethesda Ruins to paste is where I get to about level 12.
Seriously, they aren't a challenge for me. Dunno why. Supermutants are deadly for me until like level 7 or so in that game.
I focus on small guns and repair.

That is odd, on my Resize menu I get Small, Medium, Wide and Large. But no idea how that is customizable.

Oh, interesting. I guess it has something to do with my screen resolution or something?
Admittedly I am remoting to that machine. It may have something to do with it.

FWIW - I'm running directly (ie. not remote) with a 1920 x 1080 landscape display and all I get is Small and Medium choices. Mine also always defaults to Medium when pinned. Likewise, I ALWAYS change to Small because Medium is ridiculous.

Thanks for sharing. Glad I'm not the only one who has this issue. 
It's a crazy system.
