[01:03:48] bleh... so many husks left over from rescues. [01:03:52] time to blow stuff up [01:07:31] ... really sad rescues don't at least have an attached docking port. [01:08:32] JVFoxy: use a claw (though then the contract wants you to retrieve the part) or use KIS to attach a docking port [01:11:38] taniwha not that far yet... just sad, I got a few mk1 crew cabins in low orbit. [01:12:04] another option is to use an EL recycling bin [01:12:05] ponder... [01:13:09] lol... go the long way, custom build a part, has mini claw, probe core, rcs and a tank.. clamp to end of scrap.. but eh [01:15:02] uff... [01:15:26] launching a 'car' for driving around KSC... be nice if you stared by one of the buildings than way out on the runway or pad [01:25:16] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [03:29:49] wow, I found a dead end on youtube autoplay [03:31:24] Was listening to chinese vocaloid for two hours, suddenly I only have three related videos, all of whom are these super creepy child videos [03:47:22] Hi there, is there a way to select a target in the map without having to click and do "set as target" I've a problem and every time I click on a planet it shows the menu for a fraction of a second and I cannot click on "set on target" [03:49:06] oh nvm, the issue is caused because some elements like sun flare, reflections, planets menus are misplaces in the space, like the sun flare moves in the opposite direction of the screen (sun goes up, flare goes down) and also the menu had the same issue [03:49:09] could be some mod [03:49:47] you can clearly see it here https://imgur.com/a/F6WBWv2 [04:05:55] Action: UmbralRaptop pokes graphics with a stick. [04:09:42] a poorly implemented transparent shader makes your stick disappear in front of a window. graphics win.

Where should I report it? [10:09:34] https://imgur.com/a/RQOGyzP [10:17:53] heh reminds me of olf xwings game [10:18:20] if you shoot at engine after explosion and loose, it will explode again and create more engines [10:18:41] seem to recall another game, you put some stuff together in creator mode, it just endlessly explodes. [10:19:39] lol [10:19:52] specific combination im sure [10:24:29] I do'nt remember, just that it was some years back. [10:28:02] ok [10:28:12] xwing one I think was released in 1995? [10:36:49] xwing was released 1993 [10:37:05] tie fighter 1994, tie fighter special edition 1995 [10:37:20] man [10:37:38] that means I havent graduated by time I got that gam [10:37:43] i graduated in 1995 [10:37:50] it may even be on my first computer [10:38:40] 486 sx 33 mhz. none of that math coprocessor crap [10:39:16] and by special edition I mean collector's cdrom [10:39:21] my favourite game of all time [10:42:18] xwing collector's cdrom was released late 1994, maybe you got that? [10:47:22] nah I got first versons of all 3 games [10:47:34] x wing, tie fighter and finally tie fighter vs x wing [13:49:15] did really nobody tell solla that a Wiki is a wiki and that they should edit it themselfs? :D [13:57:07] I didn't.

[15:23:20] Does that sound good? [15:27:20] no. [15:27:24] it's really steps. :D [15:28:14] where's Fluburtur, when I need to ask him something? [15:29:05] as any supernatural entity, he might appear if you call his name 3 times :) [15:29:45] or try discord [15:31:57] ok [15:32:52] Mat2ch: "It means that if the mouse wheel doesn't support high resolution scroll, the value is 120 per notch." https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/mousewheel [16:01:13] two launches in the next 16 hours [16:35:52] scott about the solar sail (?) oumuamua [16:39:51] "solar sail" [16:41:54] censored hi res image of oumuamua https://i.imgur.com/U3ZIBFc.jpg [16:42:03] hehe [17:13:31] where is it going next? [17:13:57] not that interesting, somewhere we cant go [17:15:27] see even flub arrived [17:15:43] what [17:16:05] Mat2ch wanted something [17:30:21] what does he want [17:30:45] dormammu, i've come to bargain :) [17:30:56] dont know [17:32:59] https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DrSaOjNUcAEQ1g0.jpg [17:35:38] looks like a gymnast with red ribbons :) [18:01:11] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [18:02:54] Fluburtur: why did you ask where I'm from?

[19:25:36] my trumpet [19:25:40] but is in france now [19:26:17] your gold colored noise generator [19:30:30] hrhr [19:30:45] Althego: Fluburtur: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xV7nHX2RLjQ !! [19:31:33] nice [19:31:58] somewhat like an ok go clip [19:32:27] biggest problems with livestreams: cant pause [20:04:03] ahaha! yes! https://gfycat.com/brilliantparallelcow [20:05:23] i mean yea... but does it know where it isn't? [20:05:30] hehe [20:05:45] the missile knows where it isnt, obviously. but planes dont [20:06:35] well, the missile flys within tolerance; if you're in-envelope and in-spec, who cares? [20:07:01] digital to analog conversions always suck :/ [20:07:11] example: computer printers [20:07:30] printers are conspiracy [20:07:47] inkjet printers* [20:07:56] i have yet to find a laser printer that wasn't a tank. [20:08:10] absorbs damage well? [20:08:16] does it aggro? [20:08:31] ThereIsNoAggroReset.mp3 [20:09:44] inkjet printers are the "WTB kill" of the printer world. [20:11:33] why not lasers? [20:11:44] lasers do everything. like lightning in scifi [20:13:45] lasers even do eye damage! inkjet printers you need to physically touch your eye with matter to hurt them. [20:14:09] hehe [20:14:15] there are also led printers [20:14:27] at least some of those that are said to be lasers [20:14:48] those are somewhat more compact [20:14:48] aren't all laser emitters LEDs? [20:15:07] but normal lasers have a rotating mirror mechanism for scanning [20:15:08] leds dont [20:15:18] instead they have a linear led strip [20:16:02] somewhat lower resolution though [20:16:12] i mean... lasers are light... and they are laser dioeds, therefore laser dieodes are a subset of light emitting doides [20:16:15] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_saDCwsB9Ww [20:36:58] Althego: wonder if it could be adopted to fuse some sla lol [20:41:51] https://xkcd.com/1670/ [20:42:12] lol [20:42:21] voted few days ago :) [20:42:25] love mail in [20:42:59] ah comic under banner bah. lol [20:46:07] i mean... at this point everyone should be using adblockers. [20:46:20] you literally cannot trust anyone with their advertisments. [20:46:29] KrazyKrl: there is no ads at xkcd. [20:47:14] well, i wouldn't know otherwise... i've had adblock for over a decade now. [20:47:33] i liked the physics comic [20:47:41] dont care about the other stuff [20:47:51] obey gravity, it's the law. [20:47:58] soyuz in few hours, i have to go to bed [20:48:12] I dont use adblocked but noscript. latter blocks any unauthorized scripts [20:48:26] pretty effective as adblocker [20:48:37] I dont care about ads that dont use any script [20:49:27] i just pave em... i don't even want them to record that i requested an ad from a page. [20:49:43] ad record requires script to run [20:49:44] same reason why i block email images... the server can get metadata from the image request URL. [20:50:47] instead of totallyacat.gif it loads totallyacat.gif? [20:50:47] just go old school... text only email... text only computer. [20:50:59] blocking email images DOES make it text only. [20:52:10] my spam has gone down significantly after not loading any email images unless i explicitly tell this email to display them [20:53:08] nah.. just do away with images all together.. text only OS [20:53:26] i get like 1-2 spam emails a day, and those couple are automatically filtered. [20:54:03] the online stores i've used send WAYYYY more email than spam does. [20:54:06] ... you don't troll the spammers back? [20:54:14] i troll them if they call on the phone [20:54:35] i was on the line with one of those "your windows doesn't work" scam calls for almost an hour [20:55:05] i tried to give him constructive feedback on the inaccuracies of his script... but he didn't listen. [20:55:27] got a couple of rings on my phone yesterday morning... I suspect it was trying to get me to call back. too bad for them as I don't have caller ID [20:55:52] it barely just rings the phone, they hang up. Did it twice.. mostly annoyed as it woke me up [20:56:04] the last few weeks it has been daily robocalls from and practically no other spam calls. [20:56:59] i guess they got hired for more money than the scammers do. [20:57:29] the trick with the call and hangup right after a ring is, they hoped you call the number on the caller id, then hit you with automated answer service which charges stupid amounts [20:58:11] people still have hardline ohones [20:58:12] ? [20:58:19] or lately... its been some scam targeting Asians in our area, claiming to be someone from an embassy, saying they have some financial dirt on you, want you to give up money [20:58:42] or... the police would call it virtual kidnappings [20:59:01] if by hardline, you mean "we'll make your internet service cheaper that standalone if you bundle phone with it" [20:59:40] I never answer the phone [20:59:58] i block ALL numbers people call me on [21:00:04] most people have cellphones now.. hardline is landline version... old school phone, jack in wall sorta thing [21:00:09] people who know me dont call me. [21:00:16] they text me [21:00:40] friend of mind gave up on email all together. Got a message or file to send... theres an IM he'd rather you use [21:00:41] yea yea... POTS. [21:00:57] "can i send you a message on xFire?" [21:01:15] JVFoxy: for files if you use linux you could use woof utility. very nice [21:01:19] my phone doesn't data... another friend complained, "get a /real/ phone'. :\ [21:02:14] i mean... all i had when a road sign hit the car was a $15 tracphone without minutes... i had to spend ~35 minutes to email the pictures to myself. [21:02:35] mean while.. said friend only social medias off phone all day long... eh.. ya not my lifestyle thanks. [21:02:59] it cost ~$4 to get 1.75MB off of a phone... granted, the pictures are evidence... but still. [21:03:23] thankful pictures... coulda been video off hud-cam... [21:04:02] I've been considering dashcam for the truck... got enough crazy driversout ehre [21:04:07] i really want to get a dashcam, but they are still kinda expensive... but i still havent bothered to call my insurance agent to see if the car insurance would go down. [21:04:26] or if they would even subsidize it. [21:04:49] I'm not sure mine would... only basic. If I had a new car, I'd no choice but have to get extended... not sure if dash cam helps costs [21:05:19] i mean... if they even prevent one damage claim with it, it paid for itself. [21:05:34] already hinted parents for a backup camera for holidays... camper sorta creates big blindspot. really only an issue when backing up [21:05:58] well, all new cars are required to have a backup camera anyhow. [21:06:14] it wouldn't be that big of a stretch to also make it a rear facing camera. [21:07:30] new cars... my truck 98 dakota [21:07:31] i'd really like to see integrated forward facing cameras, and use something like a microSD card in a loop [21:07:46] my condolences on the dakota. [21:08:05] ugh the way the news paper had it worded though a while back, 'ALL vehicles required to have back up cameras by such-such date'... wut? [21:08:25] dakota is fine [21:08:27] around here, that truck would literally be gone... due to road "salt" [21:08:53] new paper should have said, 'all /new/ vehicles'..... way to freak out half the city [21:09:07] because they need eyeballs to sell advertisments, they just have stories so people would buy the advertisements that they already sell to advertisers. [21:09:53] been fortunate, truck little rust on it... previous owners barely used it. I'm willing to maintain when I can afford. Do the work myself what I can. [21:10:22] installed air bags on the rear axle myself for the camper [21:10:40] i mean... we got the paper for free for a year as a promotion... if we wanted to renew delivery of it, it cost about 60% more than the newspaper stand price (about $2.65 per weekly sunday issue) [21:11:20] $150 for just the sunday newspaper, naa thanks. [21:11:33] used to have two free papers here... [21:11:46] the one I liked more got discontinued. Other one got renamed [21:11:56] we did too... thursday and sunday. we also have a township paper. [21:12:17] daily free paper, and area based ones... [21:13:28] i dunno how long this car is going to last around here... it's also a 1998, but it had undercoating from the factory/dealership when brand new. [21:13:58] already had both rear wheelwells welded so the springs wouldn't punch through... but other parts of the body are rotting out. [21:14:09] it has 220,000 miles on it, and runs great. [21:14:39] nearly 290k km on my truck [21:15:15] (~350,000km is around 220,000 miles) [21:16:14] three hundred and fifty million meters oh jeepers [21:18:06] trying to figure out how to tell if truck was low or high mileage... [21:18:21] some searches saying 100k miles is now the dead stop..? [21:19:37] ~19,000km to ~32,000km per year is about average (currently the average is on the high end, and rising... high mileage cars would have more than 32,000km/yr) [21:19:51] 320k km is roughly 200k miles.. which had been considered high mileage.. [21:20:08] (12k miles - 20k miles/yr in freedom units) [21:21:08] the rule-of-thumb now is about 20,000miles/yr or 32,000km/yr to be average mileage. [21:21:33] wow.. ok so truck is pretty low milage. Though I do temp work and not drive it around all the time [21:21:42] do some trips outof town wiht it.. a few times to Calgary [21:22:01] if I recall average is 10k miles a year [21:22:09] im been hitting 9k each 2 years lol [21:22:12] 14000km/year logged on truck so far [21:22:42] it used to be... my mechanic literally said "the average mileage is around 20,000 per year now, it used to be closer to 12,000 miles per year; but people are driving further" [21:23:14] sadly.. ya given how expensive it is now to live in most major cities. [21:23:24] especially around here, where they raised the interstate speed limit to 75MPH, and the highway speed limit to 65MPH. [21:23:39] and, of course... everyone goes 5+MPH over. [21:23:42] used to say... $5million(cnd) for a closet.. now more like 15million [21:23:44] it takes me 15 minutes to work from home [21:24:21] feh... 100kph speed limit no highway here... more like most people do 150kph... [21:24:55] (105kph, and 121kph) [21:25:16] I've had someone pass me doing 210kph only to end up slowing down because both lanes were blocked. But only for a few moments. Barely an opening and they pushed through and were gone back up to 200kph agani [21:25:46] i mean... i bet they did that "ends in 5" thing so if people go 5+ over, the coppers can easily see that most significant digit change. [21:26:14] was a section of highway here.. they used to stop anyone over 5kph the limnit [21:26:41] 5kph is a little... absurd. [21:26:59] here cops dont ticket anyone going under 7 mph over the limit [21:27:00] your tire inflation and tire wear would account for that on larger tired vehicles [21:27:00] cops may not get all speeders, but thing is, going that much faster hits you in the wallet over time [21:27:07] not worth time doing paperwork [21:27:29] unless they have quota to meet [21:27:47] well, i was going ~7 over once, and actually got pulled over (but i also live in deer country) [21:28:08] of course, me not having silly things like traffic infractions or a warrant let me go. [21:28:11] well off to work I go. later [21:28:28] sad thing is... everyone thinks speed limit is only a suggestion. You try doing the limit, they all complained o you for being a traffic hazard. [21:28:56] well, if your in traffic, drive at the speed of the traffic. [21:29:02] if you're alone, drive the speed limit. [21:29:35] either way... you become a hazard. [21:30:21] distracted driving is way more dangerous than extra speed. but the thing is, these bonuses are multiplicative [21:30:25] I was trying to pass around a slow truck. cop pulled me over for 'speeding' when on east coast in rental car. I go to pay ticket, it wasn't in the system yet. Said wait till later. Time was nearly up before thing on ticket said cost would go up higher. I called in again, still not in system... I forced the issue, had them push it in. No way I'm wan [21:30:25] ting to get hit with some warrant. [21:31:15] i mean, if you need to go 10+ over to pass a truck, he wasn't going sufficently slowly enough to be a hazard. [21:32:04] https://twitter.com/DSLauretta/status/1059900916352991232 [21:32:33] it was a while back. [21:32:38] so... "we increased the contrast to see the reflective bits" [21:33:57] looks like a dice [22:08:42] uhm, i've been trying to watch CNN but after a few minutes of this energetic war-like music in the background i must say that is totally unwatchable [22:10:05] TV is bad, try their website? [22:12:06] i can't imagine that being a worthwhile experience [22:12:55] I'd expect almost every news channel to be unwatchable today [22:28:41] but there's a difference between "unwatchable" content-wise vs. style-wise [22:29:49] Anyway, I'd wait at least another 30 minutes for polling locations to start closing. [22:58:11] yeah, but if i hadn't looked, i wouldn't even know when polls closed
