@JourneymanGeek oh ok thanks!

Morning :)

Afternoon! ;)

@AJ :) How was your holiday yesterday? :)

@Tinkeringbell Good. I spent most of it doing nothing. She left for her mother's house yesterday.

Sounds lovely! I often like doing nothing.

Did she have a good day too? :)

@Tinkeringbell maybe. she spent the day packing. ;)

Ahhh XD

Long trip?

In terms of kilometers? No. In terms of duration? Yes, two weeks.

@AJ That's a long trip then ;)

Hi @DragonairGirl, I'm terdon, I am a moderator here. I am afraid that you may be very mature for your age, but we have no way of judging that. As you have been told, this is a site for adults and we simply do not have the infrastructure to ensure that younger users are safe and treated well here. If you want to participate, please ask your parents for help: they can post questions for you and help you use the site safely.

This is not something that is up for discussion. There is a legal requirement for the site to not allow underage users. I understand this may seem unfair to you, but we really don't have a choice.

@DragonairGirl It is not up to them. Allowing you to be active here at your age is against the law and can get us into trouble. And not with our parents!

@DragonairGirl if it's any consolation, you can return when you turn 13

And you really should not be talking to random people in internet chat rooms. We are nice, and only want to help you, but other people are not so nice. I know how tired you must be of hearing this, but it really is for your own good. :/

So I am afraid I will have to suspend your account now. But we would be very happy to welcome you again in a few years!

whoa lotsa going on here

@ArthurHv Well we needed to do something to get you back in here :P

Long time no see ;)

Yea I've been spending a lot of time on a pet project

I do a GUI in opengl. It's hard as hell

\o @terdon

@ArthurHv Sounds hard... I've got absolutely zero experience making GUIs in whatever language/framework, so it always sounds hard ;)

Hey @Mithical! :)

I'd ask what brings you to this neck of the woods but I think I can figure it out this time :P

Better question is ... how can we keep him here ;)

Maybe cookies. ;)

Offer intriguing debates about the merits and downsides of assorted topics?

I'll start then... pineapple on pizza :P

@Tinkeringbell Well I was originally quite enthusiastic in supporting the minimal features, text, windows, buttons, that would be it, but then I realised rendering text is extremely slow if you blit letter by letter on the screen, so I spent 80% of the time optimizing how to render stuff in an optimized way :D

@Tinkeringbell Nice way to eat a pizza and lose weight at the same time. ;P

@Mithical lol. You know me too well :)

@ArthurHv Sounds fun though!

I don't know about you but once I start something, I also spend a lot of time 'optimising' stuff.

It's e.g. what I like most about games too, if they allow you to optimise for certain things

One of my favorite games currently is satisfactory, so I know the feeling

A quick Google search makes it look promising :) I've been playing Stardew Valley again since the last update, but before that I did the same even in Animal Crossing XD

hi

hey :)

Hi @terdon welcome to Awkward Silence chat, we don't often get to meet new faces there, please make yourself feel like you are at home.

Hi Ila, thanks.

thanks for taking care of the kid

I'm working on getting the account nuked

@user726941 That's something only a CM can do, so now I'm curious how you are working on that...

@user726941 It is a bit concerning statement in this context, could you please tell what do you mean?
