also ☝🏼 that series has kindle whispersync if you're into that
what's that again?
yeah i mean, the dark materials series is quite heavy on the religious overtones too
its where the audiobook follows where you're reading on the kindle
what kind of religious overtones?
umm, i guess he's just a bit critical of organized religion
if you're an atheist you'll probably like it a lot haha
let's just say I don't have many positive opinions on it myself xP
i think you can read the first chapter on amazon so you can atleast see if it's something you'd be into
I'm only interested if there's a decent German version
Kinda want the semester to end already so I can just read all day.
@opal sequoia I so wish you'd learn Italian. I'd have a wealth of stuff to have you read :P
aha, thanks, I'll take a look at it
You need to just get into German (or English) stuff so we can read that instead.
well I do read in English
I really wish I was at a point in German to just read fluently already.
actually I've been reading almost exclusively in ENglish for the past decade or so
I wonder if we've read many of the same books then.
depends. I'm very into historical fiction, you?
I think perhaps I have read too many Australian books.
Oh, mostly fantasy.
Weird fantasy.
just read "Das Parfüm" together :)
(As opposed to like, HP or high fantasy)
intriguing. All three things
What's Das Parfüm?
- What sort of Australian books? Why would you mention them aside from generic books in English?
or well
Australia as in written by Australian authors. So... probably, like most things, not as commonly known in other countries. And therefore, people on the internet won't have read them. Even people here mostly won't have read them.
But they're pretty awesome.
aha. Guess I'll have to check it out then
word are also not too hard, imo
Und man lernt viele neue Wörter die mit Gerüchen zu tun haben
as for Australian books... that's not enough of an obstacle to stop my curiosity, I'm afraid
One of my favourite books as a teenager was this one called Ferren and the Angel. It's part of a trilogy about a future where societally de-evolved humans are stuck in a war between angels in Heaven and weird creepy not-human things on Earth. This angel crashes on Earth and this kid, Ferren, meets her and they find out some freaky stuff about the world.
The only Australian book I've read is the book thief, i think
at least it's the only one I'm consciously aware of
I'll just link a few books and you can read the blurb thingy.
the synopsis? (I do prefer blurb thingy though)
Yeah that. 😄
the nightpeople one doesn't sound bad
I should get into goodreads again, maybe it would be useful to rememeber what I want to read
I'm so slow at reading though :<
Same. 😦
takes me ages to finish a book
I remember the times when I stayed up all night reading Stephen King and somehow never getting tired
those times are apparently over, for better or worse :<
And one more Australian author that I can even think of off the top of my head. I have basically all this author's books: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2038926.The_Immortal_Prince
It looks like a terrible romance fiction but it's pretty awesome.
But yeah, I used to read for hours every day.
When I was in high school.
It was a fun time.
And feel free to think about books you have liked a lot and send me links, although probably when it's not 1am for me so I can read them properly and not just glance at them.
Ah, and to elaborate on what I meant by weird fantasy... Essentially, fantasy that blends quite notably with sci fi and horror concepts.
So that it has a lot of surreal and/or dark tones.
i'm currently reading the saxon chronicles still
i think i'm reading the last book that's been published so far
Wow! This is really historical fiction. 😮
I adore Cornwell, I love the way he writes
I guess I can try it out since I don't think I have before.
By the way, have you ever read John Dies at the End?
nope
Well it's one of the books I'd probably most recommend to pretty much anyone.
Just in case you're curious. It's just horror/sci-fi comedy though. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1857440.John_Dies_at_the_End?from_search=true
I don't usually dismiss any genre a priori
I do seem to be picky about romance and fantasy stuff but that's about it, or at least I think so
Well, to be fair, fantasy/romance attracts a lot of below average writers and concepts.
Just a side-effect of the nature of the genres, I suppose.
yeah
I consider them entry-level genres for writers (perhaps a bit unfairly), so despite the number of decent and good works in the genre, there's a lot of low level stuff
some genres are objectively harder to find an audience for and to write about, to be fair.
Nuh, I agree. They are entry level because they are the easiest to write.
Crime has the same thing but... crime isn't as badly affected by tropey content. It can actually really benefit from it.
to write historical fiction or sci-fi there's usually a lot, a sometimes overwhelming, amount of research to be done beforehand, so it's unsurprising that those authors that do manage it end up claming a higher "position"
Yeah, definitely.
and others are just hard to write well
Yeah, horror!
Oh, I haven't gotten into much noir.
I seem to see a pattern here:
if a genre's hook is on eliciting a certain kind of response or range of emotions in the reader, then that genre is generally hard to write
comedy is one of the hardest things to do, after all. And same states for horror, if one means the well-crafted kind
and when it comes to books, I don't think there's easy workarounds like there is for example in videogames
is the proper way to say "Im right here" Ich bin richteg heir or is it Ich bin recht hier?
Or is my grammar all fucked up again?
most horror videogames rely on cheap mechanisms like jump-scares or obfuscation. Very few of them can really make you fear stuff ina genuine way
That is true in a sense, although... I have actually found it to be true for video games as well. The difference between a well-crafted horror game and most is really impressive.
yep. Not saying there aren't good horror games but that most of them are not great
Like, Soma by frictional games, if you've seen that... I was totally blown away by that game. It's like actual art.
True, I know.
I'm not terribly into the genre myself but I remember the first Amnesia game
But just pointing out that the same concept exists in games, because it's just something I find interesting.
or the earlier resident evil games for the playstation
Yeah.
I remember being scared while playing amnesia, even and especially when I later learned there was nothing to fear
Yeah. Soma is by the same developers. But they took all of what they learned from Amnesia and Penumbra and perfected it.
if the emotion is only present when a jumpscare/chase occurs, or only in anticipation of those events, then it feels rather cheap
I've heard good things of it
Oh, I totally forgot I was going to start reading Lovecraft in German.
I've read a lot but I need to read more.
Did you see the links I posted to the German ones?
Lovecraft? Nope
Ah, in case you're interested, this page has a few German translations linked. http://www.hplovecraft.de/index.php?id=werke
I must admit it's not an easy author to read long term. Not that it's hard to get what he means but if I read it continuously it gets raather tiresome and depressing. If I were to recommend it to anyone, I'd also say that they should read something else inbetween his works
Yeah. When I was reading it, it would be small snippets at random times. It's a really nice style of writing for that.
Like waiting for something, sitting on the train, so on.
Since we were talking about fantasy being easy though, that's actually why I am mostly writing fantasy right now.
some days ago it was his birthday btw, Lovecraft's I mean
Oooh.
I've always wanted to write, and I must still have unfinished stuff somewhere on my old computer, but I always end up abandoning it in favour of devising roleplay worlds and stuff
I have an unfinished one and a new one I'm collecting ideas for. Wonder if I'll ever finish any of it
RPs are cool too.
Any writing is cool.
RP forums. I'm a mod on a fantasy one.
So I wrote there for many years.
used to be a dungeon master on one
Ohh, this one is just freeform writing. What was your one like?
it had some rules when it came to rpg stuff like fighting and performing hard actions
Makes sense.
A German text adventure would be pretty cool to play actually.
Maybe I'll make one.
A German VN.
why don't we just make one
Yeah! I've been thinking about doing one anyway.
In English, I mean.
But German is good too.
Will it have memes? 🤔
we could gather some users here, like @sturdy shadow and make something of the sort just for fun and learnsies
at least, we'd learn. Erik probably wouldn't 👀
but he's involved in rpg stuff so i figured he'd be glad to
Oooh.
cute berzi protagonist? 🤔
WAIT
Berzi is obviously the main love interest.
I was thinking of something simple, like turn-based writing with little or no rules. Nothing like complicated full-d&d stuff
I suppose
So just plain text?
yeah, why not
Sounds awesome.
with little or no rules
So "you lads are in a forest. do whatever you want"? Sounds like an easy game to make. 🤔
How you get German keyboard on normal laptop?
🤔
jeb, you don't really want that
^
was
No, I'm fine with anything.
you don't want to use a german keyboard
You don't need it, really
@hot cloak if you have a US keyboard you cna just install US international and type stuff like ß üä relatively easily
But I just mentioned text and VN together so wasn't sure.
GOtcha
LEmme try that
I should really stop speakin genglish
english
because im moving to germany and I havent even reached A2
You should speak in English if you're asking stuff like "What keyboard should I use?" If you're only A1.
NEIN
But speak German otherwise.
Ok
are you quizzing him or asking us?
Ich bin nicht Glucklich
Nahh, I am quizzing him, I know it
Eigentlich ist keiner glucklich. 🤔
Honestly i dont even know that man
Was ist die Wort fur 'should'
And what is the keyboard too? Don't tell me it's keyboard as well.
@sudden panther What is best programming language to make text adventure?
Ich habe keine Ahnung
Well, I saw sollen... tun for me
Mein deutsch ist so schelt, entschuldigung
For something as simple as a text adventure it absolutely doesn't matter. As long as you don't opt for brainfuck or similar things. 😛
Nah, das ist okay, Jeb.
Okay, got it.
Ich mussen lernen, und schnell!
I meant must
Yeah, just replying to what Flappy said.
Also, don't forget to decline your verbs. 😉 We can't use müssen for ich.
Almost. muss
They want your organs.
t'was me
brb gonna go study memrise
@pallid kelp @pallid kelp id be so in for that
knew I could count on ya
right-alt +s
Or you write "ss"
that's for n00bs
Like this: B
No, use j3
was ist der Unterschied zwischen Möhren und Karotten
I think your sharp S is broken
You mean sein/haben, Jeb?
Hunger is a noun, as a hint. 😉
You can't be hunger, even in English.
Saying ich bin Hunger would mean I am hunger.
Protip: if it's capitalized it's either a noun or functions as one. 👌
What's the right translation for: I have learned German for four years.
my poor try would be: Ich habe Deutsch vier Jahre gelernt.
and where is the "for"?
I have no idea, that's why it's a poor try 😄
Lemme check, but the rest it 💯
ich lerne Deutsch seit 4 Jahren
damn really
or
seit is basically for?
since
Ich habe Deutsch 4 Jahre lang gelernt
Oh yeah seit
was ist 'gelernt
Ich have been learning german for 4 long years
Irregular one, as always
No, I have learnt German for 4 years
If it would have been "sein"
I have been learning means I'm still learning it, I have learned means I am no longer learning it actively.
why is lang in there, then?
4 years long, not 4 long years. 😉
ahhhh
hehehe
Just as in English, if an adjective is referring to a noun, it'll come before it. Otherwise it's not an adjective.
I just need take a whole day where I stop learning vocab, and just study the grammar
take it.
because I know all these words but I dont know how to use them
Yeah, dedicating some time to grammar is really helpful.
ja
And you should take some notes.
good idea
Then you can read over them later when you forget stuff.
gut Ahnung
i have troubles with past times in german
Well, like perfekt?
What are your troubles, Mega?
Or preterit?
but past is much more easier than in english lol
🤔
you actually need only perfect and that's all
just simple perfect
Wieso wir sind in general2?
Same for present perfect with English.
hehe
Warum nicht, Jeb?
But i have used english so much in my life it just feels natural, whilst german not so much
it's not only used in writing speech
lol ich habe keine ahnung
perfect is just more common in speaking
ich weiss nicht?
Was????????
ich habe keine Ahnung
You can say that.
Ich weiss nicht
Ich weiß es nicht
what
@pine ginkgo Is the "es" required?
kinda, yeah
While weiß does mean white, it's also a declined form of wissen - to know. 😉
it's not a b
how do you say politely, excuse me or can you repeat?
wtf, that's so complicated lmao
well, you asked for politely
hol wieder
yeah because i'm having an interview tomorrow and i'm trying to practice

so i moved into an area where they mostly pronounce ch as sch, is that like a dialect thing because all my life i've been learning differently and it doesnt feel right
yes
like they won't say becher but bescher or isch etc
i feel so stupid when i have to pronounce it differently
Where are you at?
in-between frankfurt and stuttgart
Aha. Cool!
Anyone here been to Passau?
Whatd you think about it?
I was kind of asleep
that tells much about it 😛
There is little to no difference between Becher and Bescher
actually wait let me rephrase that
You already pronounce it with a soft ch in high German, is what I'm saying
Chuck hallo
But I can't hit that right middle ch and sch so it's either a clear ch or clear sch if you know what I mean 😄
I'm from Croatia, so Slavic dialect may play a role there
You'll get used to it, I'm sure. For a second I thought you used the rough CH in all of those words
I try to get that middle sch but it's pretty hard
But yeah, those Badeners just don't know how to speak properly
Yeah?! I thought I'm the only one!
Ask our admin and favourite jinx main wormic for help then
He's croatian/german bilingual
He's croatian but his german is flawless
Must be hard to learn another language as croatian
"Why are there so many vowels?"
it's a whole different thing if you have croatian roots/relatives & live in germany vs. living somewhere and moving to a country with poor language skill
Didnt he only just move here?

WIeso
what does Kamuffel mean?
Nobody ever uses that word, so don't worry about it. It's a Ruhrpott-German colloquialism that translates as "fool"
Actually scratch that
Oh ok
Whoops, its altes*
Then it's just "old fool"
Oh
But again, it's not a word that's used in high German almost ever
Why sharks

Does anybody know what this thing is/where it is from?
Where did you find it?
Dough with ears and a tail, duh.
A reverse image search is turning up nothing. :/
Neither did searching for bedsheet with bunny ears on Google.
How did you even find that? ^^
And how did you find the source, Henbruas? ^^
Reverse image search
Odd. It turned up nothing when I tried.
Nevermind, I didn't scroll down. 😅

I remember when I had trouble pronouncing chen

😄
When I was younger I had brown colour eyes. I really wanted green eyes. I wished really hard. Now they are green.
lighter color eyes look good but i'm ok with my dark eyes because it's hard to see the pupils dilate
Wait so if I believe I can fly hard enough i'll be able to fly?
It worked for me. My hair too but that's less impressive.
That's def genetics
😄
Animorphmagus 😮
I had blonde hair and wanted brown hair and now I have brown hair.
That can happen with lack of sunlight 😄
Totally magic. 👌
You can.
Everyones or just your own?
everyones
Because that would be hilarious
"I don't know what's up with this guy, but whenever I see him I get this awkward boner"
Wow.

I'll be giving a speech then all of a sudden everyone has a boner
Heheheh
I'll make the men question their sexuality
Base you're not lying are you?
Did your hair color really change?
Remember: magic
Is there a term for this?
No idea.
I believe it's called 'devil worship'
Maybe? I don't do Bio, though, so haven't the foggiest.
You sell your soul to the prince of darkness and he lets you change two arbitrary parts of your body.
Maybe you took some kind of medication that inhibited the production of melanin
It's probably just genetics.
Did your skin color change?
Yeah, I used to have f---ing blond hair, but now it's more strawberry-blonde (iirc)
Yeah, I used to have super pale blonde and then very gold. Now it is medium to dark brown.
wait actually if you had blonde hair then something boosted the melanin production not inhibited it
sunlight
can do that
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I dyed my hair a lot.
EXPOSED
Genetics def
😸 😿
mine all got worse 😦
I used to have curly brown hair with lots of blond streaks
now it's black and not curly
and i got ugly
Apparently, i used to have blond hair; it's brown now
Nice. 😄
Base is a shapeshifter? Cool
Never heard of this phenomenon before, tbh
But I also always lived in a place where blonde hair is either fake or non-existent
It's pretty common with blonde hair, yeah. Although normally it's only in very young childhood, which is extremely common because many babies are just born blonde.
But it's less common that it happens into your teens.
Can happen though.
And when did that happen with you?
Like mid-teens-ish.
The hair was just funny because it was blond, then I started dying it really dark, then when I grew it natural again it was a totally different colour.
Cool
When I was younger I had the same hair type as my mum/sister, which is really blonde (and same texture/waviness), and theirs hasn't really changed. 🤔
The most that ever happened with mine is that sunlight can sometimes make it look golden
That happened to me too, base 😮
I had kinda pale brownish hair in the step between blonde and brown
and after dying it for years
Well it's probably less impressive than I made it sound
it's darker than it was originally 😄
but the sun can make it go blonde in the summer if I'm outside a lot x-x
Ooh.
Mine is quite multi-coloured if you look at it closely anyway.
But yeah, I dunno.
Genetics are weird.
Weird stuff 😄
It's amazing how many things I failed to learn about hair simply by just not living close to any blond person
Do people mostly have the same hair type there? Or do you have a lot of different ones but they just all happen to be dark?
Makes sense.
I just googled the eye thing and apparently it's probably some specific gene, that causes a change in about 15% of caucasian teens/adults, and mostly effects people with my specific eye colour (from brown to green-hazel).
So that's pretty interesting, I guess.
well congrats on your new awesome eye colour
Thanks. 😄
just found out that Lee van Cleef had heterochromia
Who's that?
he played "the Bad" in The good, the Bad and the Ugly
Hmmm.
apparently they made him wear brown contacts
because the audience may not like that he had a blue and a green eye, wut
no, apparently it runs in his family
That's pretty cool.

Why is he in that channel?
Unterricht isn't taking place. ^^
Because he is speaking only deutsch
and my deutsch is bad and I cant help him
im tryiing write him advices on whatsapp but he dont understand me 😄
Wouldn't he use Nur Deutsch, then? ^^
Anyway, tell him this:
Die Leute auf dem Server würden dir gerne helfen. Besuche #general2. :)
That should do the trick.
Hallo @storm girder kannst du das hier sehen? 😅
Ja
JAAA!

Hallo 😄

Bist du Deutscher ?
Ich benutze discord app
du bist irgendwie auf "ton aus" gekommen
Was ?
es gibt 2 arten sich zu unterhalten, wie du siehst: chat, und chat+voice
Die beide
voice ist separat, das heisst du kannst dich stumm schalten oder push-to-talk aktivieren
trotzdem kannst du jederzeit in den # chat-kanälen schreiben
aber halt nur immer in einem voice kanal maximal sein
und momentan sind wir beide im kanal "Unterricht"
ich bin jetzt in "Nur Deutsch"
aber du hast irgendwo den ton aus gemacht
Ich vermute mal, dass du MuttersprachlerIn bist?
Ich will Deutscgsprache verbessern
Ah, verstehe.
Ich habe dich zu Freunden hinzugefügt Mostafa

Part 10 -Die Überraschung
what are good steam games for someone who does much like/ gets bored quickly by video games?
Well... what kind of games?
i'm not sure
Football Manager or any kind of management type games that you can play on the side
Like puzzle? Story? Fighting? You know, some kind of general guide.
i'll try to think of a genre one sec
Cause different people get hooked onto different types of games.
Some people like to play repetitive games where you perfect your skills... others like to play through a narrative... sometimes with replayability provided from branching style of choice-consequence.
Some people only like online multiplayer games too.
Repetitive games where you perfect your skills: osu!, Super Hexagon
Narrative with replayability: Stanley Parable, Life is Strange, Minecraft Story Mode, basicallyanytelltalegamesgame
Online multiplayer: Don't play online much, but, hmmm... Minecraft?
Also, Base, there are sandbox games too.
The most well-known example of which is, again, Minecraft! :P
Although, Sas, did you mean games like Saint's Row and GTA?
Um every moba is in it's core repetitive
GTA too, yep, but the most notable games of this genre are Minecraft and Terraria, yep 😄
@grave adder It wasn't a comprehensive list. They were just examples of relatively different categories to give snek something to consider.
Yep, there are many more out there, I just thought of something snekko could try out too c:
Aha, I see.
In a couple updates it might actually be playable, then. ^^
Little optimistic 😶
Someone has to be. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Hey, @valid ice, I found this yesterday, thought it might interest you too: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/3fmt45/why_is_afrikaans_considered_a_language_rather/ctqxcdi/?context=2
Seems quite interesting, a 1/3 of the way through
I wonder if they would have pronounced Inglis as it looks, or the Gaelic way 🤔
If it was the Gaelic way, the final s would make a sh sound
I've never actually heard that pronounced now that I think about it
That was a really interesting article, but now I'm tempted to rewrite sections of the Wikipaedia 😦
Do it.
I'd have to learn actual Scots though, the closest we got to it in primary school was one of the most english poems burns did
Most of the Scots I know I've picked up from my dad
I'll see if I can remember the name of the poem, but it was like 6 or 7 years ago >.>
Wow, as it turns out we learned about the English version, not the Scots 😐
Yeah, that's around the closest I got too
I think we did the "to a mouse" poem which was enjoyable
it's interesting how much of Scots I can understand if I just read it with a Scottish accent. I'd be interested in learning more, but probs not to the extent of learning it as another language
also, speaking of Wikipedia, I looked at the Scottish English article and it said "pinkie" was/is primarily a Scottish word and so it is, according to OED. Scots words sneak into English now and then it seems

there's one in #282831147942281216 but sure
Activity: Able to help anyone
Imperative
Keep in mind that zu sein is irregular, so it just does its own thing, really.
tru
yup, it even has its own two imperative forms
two ?
Sei for 2nd person singular and seid for plural
@opal sequoia Who are you on Codewars 😛 Won't hurt to get back into the habit of daily programming 👍
@crystal delta Same name as here. 😄
But I haven't done it for a while because I've been learning C instead of what I was using on there, which is Python.
wow you are level 5 already ❤
kyu 5 😮 that's nice^^
I'm just clicking random things and entering memey code.
memecode! \o/
Yeah, I got to 5 and then I just started doing a bunch of level 8 stuff because it was good/fast practice. Even though the harder stuff is fun too.
we should create a Clan together 😛 Then we can follow each other easier
What's a good name? 
GermanLearningDiscord or something like that? XD I'm not very creative
GLaDOS.
German Learning and Disk Operating System.
Anything is okay with me.
If GLaDOS doesn't work, try the long title.
I thought you were making the clan?
yeah
apparently you have to add the name to your profile yourself
Joining a clan is as simple as setting the clan name in your profile.
we all set it to the same and it should work^^
I'm using the same as on GitHub 😮
I'll try that.
I joined it!
How do I find you through the clan?
It should work automatically I think.
Fatcat560
Ah, only the first letter is capitalised. Thanks Botto. ❤
@opal sequoia Has joining the clan made a difference? It still isn't listing the two of you as allies. 🤔
dunno if they check in intervals or if something's wrong 
Well it says I'm in the clan.
didn't show up for me too so far but I manually follow you two anyways 😄
Yay. 😃
come here @hot cloak ❤ Join us in our adventures^^
followed ya
Yay.
that picture, god dammit XD
@crystal delta @opal sequoia Are you ready to be proud of my Python attempt?
I condensed it as much as possible. :]
def DNA_strand(dna):
return "".join([list("TGCA")[list("ACGT").index(item)] for item in dna])```
ew
^.^
I know.

list("ACGT").index(item) -> "ACGT".find(item) ?
That's not as fun. ^^
pls
If it works, it's good. 👍
wenn du so sagst...
Hehe.
Well if you do something badly, it's okay because you learn a new trick.
Or something that you forgot about.
def DNA_strand(dna):
return "".join(["TGCA"["ACGT".find(item)] for item in dna])```
Better?
Actually, that is better.
How can I write a quote with nice colours like that?
```python
Code here
```
Thanks. 😮
Yeah I just noticed it has "minutes until stats update" or so on on the profiles.
sweet ❤
🎉
I need to sleep but I look forward to playing codewars with you all. 🌞 💕
Have a great day.
Sleep well! 
See you Base ❤
❤
I'm not quite sure what it wants from me with that random test.
I honestly don't know what the random test expects.
My solution works for everything else. 😦
You obviously need to make [] equal [0, 8], duh.
But how. I know neither the input, nor the output.
What's your code?
If it at least told me that func(list, divisor) should equal output, that's be great.
def divisible_by(numbers, divisor):
return [item for item in numbers if item%divisor is 0]```
I feel like I'm missing something. 🤔
is
Huh, that actually turned out to be the problem.
Breaks for numbers less than -5 or greater than 256 iirc
Thanks you two. ❤
Yep. Replacing is with == worked.
don't use is
It would break if they used a float divisor, maybe that's why
¯_(ツ)_/¯
the Java version of this thing was borked too
you had int[] as input but it tested for long[] 😄
are we doing the same stuff atm? 
some of them don't work in Java so I'll try to stick to Python 😐
Not sure. Which challenge are you currently working on?
shortest word^^
Ooh, do you have a link? ^^
So when are we going to get #mathandprogramming? 😬
^^
@crystal delta The Project Euler problem that turned up in #general yesterday is a solveable 6 kyu Kata! Copy and paste the code from yesterday, and you're done. ^^
Laurenz is joining the clan! 🎉 ❤
hao i join
Clan's name isn't very descriptive. 😛
It may take a short while for things to update, so you probably won't see the rest of us immediately.
German Learning and Disk Operating System. ❤
GLaDOS. ^^
Thought you might. ^^
So where will I see the clan? I haven't really used the site much haha.
^^
Am I the only one whose code randomly times out sometimes? 🙄
Nope.
tbh a channel for coding could be quite useful here
if someone isn't interested tehy can just mute it, and there is enough discussion about the topic(s) to justify its existence
since this server is full of nerds
It can be hidden like the gaming channel is
Can we get a nerd role then 😄
We're kinda considering it.
