[00:27:14] <hmw[at]> Huh. The Astronaut Complex screen is also very slow
[00:27:47] <raptop> Oh, yeah. They'll let any kerbal in, even one with max stupidity
[01:37:54] <darsie> Are you superstitious about Kerbal courage and stupidity?
[01:41:35] Action: raptop wants to say that one of them can up G-tolerance by an extra half-G
[01:42:00] <raptop> Also, BadS provides a bonus IIRC
[01:42:13] <raptop> Mind you, gaining extra levels (especially of pilot) has a bigger effect

[16:35:23] <sheeep> hello
[16:35:50] <UmbralRaptop>  \o
[16:39:08] <Althego> no hop today
[16:43:38] <Althego> https://www.reddit.com/r/KerbalSpaceProgram/comments/lrx53l/heres_a_crackjob_of_one_of_my_planes_turned_into/ joey, have you ever been in a turkish prison?
[16:43:56] <Althego> oh lol https://www.reddit.com/r/KerbalSpaceProgram/comments/lsyt8m/the_latest_in_my_line_of_totally_practical_rovers/
[16:44:28] <Althego> not impractical. living things use this form of motion, so it vant be bad
[17:06:23] <TristenKSP> EA Sports
[17:07:28] <TristenKSP> It's in the money
[17:07:44] <sheeep> impossible
[17:08:15] <TristenKSP> "You have no idea what's possible, dear."
[17:10:57] <sheeep> <3
[17:11:17] <TristenKSP> beep, beep, im a sheeep. I said beep, beep im a sheeep.
[17:11:23] <flayer>  ...
[17:11:31] <TristenKSP> I'm so funni
[17:12:27] <sheeep> youre not... even me
[17:13:02] <TristenKSP> I'm not funny, or I'm not you?
[17:13:50] <sheeep> oO
[17:17:15] <flayer> sheeep don't go beep!
[17:21:12] <packbart> Electric Sheep do
[17:22:35] <Electric_Sheeep> beep
[17:22:49] <flayer> well, the proof is in the pudding
[17:23:26] <TristenKSP> I ate the pudding
[17:23:35] <flayer> of course you did
[17:23:44] <flayer> i made a woolen sweater out of it
[17:23:58] <TristenKSP> nice

[18:14:18] <TristenKSP> amogus
[18:24:52] <TristenKSP> monke
[18:28:52] <TristenKSP> People S P E A K
[18:29:09] Action: TristenKSP needs social activity
[18:30:06] <TristenKSP> please
[18:30:58] <Althego> .
[18:31:33] <TristenKSP> bruh
[18:31:58] <Althego> wenhop?
[18:33:04] <TristenKSP> Why are you speaking Kerbal
[18:33:26] <Althego> https://twitter.com/hashtag/wenhop
[18:33:47] <TristenKSP> It has to do with Starship apparently
[18:33:50] <Althego> lol that yoda ballooon
[18:34:41] <TristenKSP> Balloon, I must become.
[18:34:42] <Althego> they are so confident in the new landing site that there is even a logo on it
[18:35:34] <TristenKSP> The logo looks weird
[18:35:59] <TristenKSP> What even is that supposed to be
[18:36:17] <Althego> an x
[18:36:22] <Althego> and a rocket
[18:36:24] <Mat2ch> no hop today :(
[18:36:51] <Althego> btw balloonacy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYgkGHLgnu4
[18:36:53] <TristenKSP> :(
[18:37:36] <TristenKSP> I meant the logo on the #Wenhop merch
[18:38:07] <Althego> the texas tankwatchers with the double starships
[18:38:49] <Althego> no wintergatan video yet. i liked the daily updates
[18:39:10] <TristenKSP> It looks like a discount starship with a face
[18:39:41] <Althego> that must be the original starhopper
[18:40:35] <TristenKSP> Just imagine how powerful Starship will be when it's strapped atop of Falcon Heavy.
[18:40:36] <sheeep> can anyone explain me why my OX-STAT-PD does not work on the mun?
[18:40:48] <Althego> never will be on a falcon heavy
[18:40:52] <Althego> that is too small
[18:40:57] <TristenKSP> Falcon 9?
[18:40:58] <Althego> smol rocket
[18:41:04] <TristenKSP> Falcon 9 is smol
[18:41:09] <Althego> superheavy booster 9 m diameter
[18:41:22] <Althego> its parts are already tehre
[18:41:33] <TristenKSP> Falcon 9 is like only 0.5 the size of Heavy
[18:42:14] <Althego> also maybe launch ion 6 hours?
[18:42:23] <Althego> (for starlink)
[18:42:28] <TristenKSP> I once recreated Falcon 9 in KSP with 9 "Vector" Engines and I went from 0.5G to 15G and 0m to 20km in about 5 second.
[18:42:56] <Althego> vector engiens are based on the ssme rs-25, way more powerful
[18:43:36] <TristenKSP> That's why they're so efficient. Isn't the RS-25 one of, or the most powerful Liquid Fuel Rocket Engine?
[18:44:14] <Althego> in what metric?
[18:44:19] <Althego> really good isp
[18:44:31] <Althego> you can only do that with hydrogen
[18:44:45] <TristenKSP> Uh
[18:44:55] <TristenKSP> Newtons?
[18:45:08] <Althego> but raptor is high thrust, until be-4
[18:45:20] <TristenKSP> What rockets will use BE-4
[18:46:00] <Althego> vulcan and new glenn
[18:46:19] <TristenKSP> SpaceX better than Blue Origin
[18:46:21] <X> I always measure force in terms of sthène.
[18:46:30] <TristenKSP> what's that
[18:47:02] <X> It’s a unite of force equal to 7,233.014 poundals.
[18:47:17] <TristenKSP> what is a poundal
[18:47:31] <sheeep> help please^^
[18:47:39] <TristenKSP> what
[18:48:01] <X> The poundal is the force it takes to accelerate 1 pound-mass at 1 foot per second per second.
[18:48:05] <TristenKSP> oh
[18:48:07] <sheeep> photovoltaic module for science on the mun, placed by a engineer... doesnt generate energy
[18:48:22] <Althego> ios that similar to a slug?
[18:48:26] <Althego> -o
[18:48:46] <TristenKSP> Slugs don't even way a pound
[18:49:05] <TristenKSP> They're force is probably, like, 0.05 poundals
[18:49:10] <Althego> anyway silly imperial units
[18:49:22] <TristenKSP> STUPID IMPERIAL UNITS
[18:49:28] <TristenKSP> Metric supreme
[18:49:31] <Althego> camelot
[18:49:37] <Althego> silly place, dont go there
[18:50:07] <TristenKSP> King Arthur
[18:52:01] Action: raptop throws a 32.174 lb slug at TristenKSP 
[18:52:57] <Althego> dont be hard, make it a snail
[18:53:11] <Althego> i remember that because it is even sillier
[18:53:21] <raptop> o_O
[18:53:28] Action: TristenKSP epicly dodges raptop's slug
[18:53:36] <raptop> What happens if you stuff the slug (or the snail) in a barn?
[18:54:07] <Althego> btw actually these slug and snail and such, althoug h not used by normal people are a lot saner than other imperial units
[18:54:11] <Althego> they make some sense
[18:55:11] <raptop> well, yes
[18:55:35] <TristenKSP> but actually no
[18:55:54] <raptop> Also, keep in mind that I'm in a field where crabs and eevees are units
[18:55:55] <Althego> they form a usable system, unlike historical units
[18:56:07] <raptop> (well, eVs. But the pronounciation is the same)
[18:56:11] <Althego> hehe never heard of these
[18:56:19] <Althego> ah eV is a thing
[18:56:31] <Althego> but what are crabs
[18:56:34] <raptop> crab as in the crab nebula's xray emission is used as a standard candle
[18:56:47] <raptop> Because of course it is
[18:56:51] <Althego> hehe
[19:19:38] <FLHerne> !stupid stupid unit
[19:19:39] <LunchBot> FLHerne: Every specialized field has its own stupid unit.
[19:21:15] <Althego> if you are choosing the brighter monitor, are you nit picking? :)
[19:21:26] <FLHerne> In change ringing, speed is measured in "hours", which actually means "hours to ring each bell 5040 times"
[19:22:05] <FLHerne> In railway modelling, scales are typically described in mm per foot
[19:22:57] <Althego> fathom per lord's prayer
[19:23:59] <FLHerne> Yeah, the marine world is a haven for weird units
[19:24:13] <Althego> actually it is used a joke here
[19:24:14] <FLHerne> Oh, everything on the UK rail network is still measured in cables
[19:24:18] <FLHerne> (which are 22 yards)
[19:24:18] <Althego> but kind of sensible for speed
[19:24:32] <Althego> what are gauges?
[19:24:35] <Althego> x gauge wire
[19:24:37] <FLHerne> Which is the only context outside boats I think it's still a thing
[19:24:37] <Althego> or something
[19:24:45] <Izaya> road vehicles tend to use cursed unit combinations
[19:25:19] <Izaya> the tare weight may be in kg but everyone comprehends the engine power in hp
[19:25:23] <FLHerne> Oh, and the definition of an acre, which is a chain by a furlong...
[19:26:22] <FLHerne> Althego: Those are the ones where bigger numbers are smaller, right?
[19:26:29] <Althego> i dont know
[19:27:06] <FLHerne> (it is)
[19:27:17] <FLHerne> (it's also logarithmic, not linear)
[19:27:45] <FLHerne> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_wire_gauge
[19:28:01] <Althego> do you knwo why i hate decibel? you never know if it is with 20 or 10
[19:28:34] <Althego> why would anybody come up wioth this
[19:28:51] <Althego> The sixth power of 39√92 is very close to 2
[19:28:55] <Althego> argh
[20:44:35] <Mat2ch> hrm
[20:44:50] <Mat2ch> looks like Musk is going to build a city in Texas.
[20:59:47] <bees> what could possibly go wrong
[21:28:49] Action: flayer flies at the Mun going 725m/s
[21:29:18] <raptop> Ranger program recreation?
[21:31:14] <flayer> nah delivering some tourists XD
[21:31:31] <raptop> No return required?
[21:31:38] <flayer> they're comin' back
[21:31:42] <flayer> i'm slowing as we speak
[21:32:15] <flayer> just went for a direct landing on the mun trajectory from the launchpad in 1 burn
[21:32:23] <flayer> and now i'm slowing down for it
[21:32:51] <raptop> ah
