[02:30:04] sheremetyevo airport not even a real airport [02:30:29] just a shopping mall surrounded by planes [02:31:49] I mean, a typical airport is just a bunch of enterprise software ads surrounded by planes& [02:37:00] also, didn't know that you need a VPN if you want to use messengers in russia [02:40:30] shopping mall of planes? Hmm... wish I could afford a little plane myself [02:45:57] the VPN says I'm connected via "Japan - Tokyo - 3" [02:47:17] Oh no [02:47:49] Wait, shouldn't everyone be tang by now? [02:50:09] wasn't eva set in '15 or so? [02:51:24] yeah [02:52:04] and over what timespan? [02:52:46] I think at most a year. [03:03:34] it appears that right around new year 2015/16, the world ends [03:03:36] https://wiki.evageeks.org/Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_Timeline [03:03:48] (spoilers, duh) [03:05:13] still three hours at this airport, then nine hours economy class (if I can count) [03:45:22] it appears that right around new year 2015/16, the world ends <-- dang, another one of those missed... [03:46:14] i'm starting to see a pattern about these world-ending-prophecies [03:48:52] * UmbralRaptop isn't sure what January 6th has to do with 3 kings. Was there a revolution, or something? <-- dunno, but that jesus thing seems important to a bunch of people [03:50:07] oh, right. [03:50:46] But, uh, I wouldn't call Neon Genesis Ecangelion a prophecy. [03:51:13] i'm pretty sure that's the first thing i ever heard about that [03:52:09] Action: UmbralRaptop blinks [03:54:00] (we should be careful about which of the two conversations we're commenting on) [03:56:26] Ah. [03:57:01] Yeah, I grew up outside of Christianity, so am sometimes sketchy on some holidays <_< [03:57:26] and i grew up outside anime culture :p [03:57:56] NGE is best watched if you're depressed, oddly enough [04:47:09] UmbralRaptop: 'oddly enough' [04:48:23] Does that apply to way more shows? [04:51:03] why would I book an upgrade to 'be amongst the first to board' when flying economy [04:51:24] then I have to spend more time in that seat [04:52:15] 'Enjoy up to 75% off hotels in Tokyo' I can get 100% off hotels by staying in my own apartment [04:52:50] Do they think you're Russian? [04:53:37] they think I'm hongkongese [04:54:40] the russians don't care about where I'm going, I only had to tell them about hk so that they know I will be allowed entry into china under transit rules [04:55:10] there is a chinese girl next to me charging a powerbank with another powerbank [04:55:32] uh [04:56:01] still like 40 mins until boarding [05:56:52] lol the sign https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1082000215425593345 [05:56:52] <elonmusk> https://t.co/Vl6pIb1q9b [05:57:28] and all the comments [06:07:21] https://gfycat.com/BothDecentHumpbackwhale [06:07:32] lol https://i.redd.it/rfergmufw2821.jpg [06:08:38] https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/965349669738439742/A1E42374C8A6647EEC7BAF26A347518D95591DA6/ [06:09:52] Where did that booster land though [06:40:09] Of course it's fine.

Always! ;) [08:50:20] cant [10:45:46] https://youtu.be/Hw6tOOezbCw [10:45:46] YouTube - Seven Nation Army (Trumpet, Trombone, Bari sax cover) [10:51:47] i'm too scared to click on that. after last time... [10:52:18] you wont be disapoint [10:55:49] that kind of song is usually more fun to play around with than to listen to afterwards [10:56:18] I want to learn it on trumpet so I can play it with my cousins that plays clarinet [10:56:46] exept my lips dont want that today [10:57:09] do you want to know the secret? [10:57:22] yes [10:57:39] practice, practice, practice ;P [10:58:09] im gonna ask my friend to giveme trumpet parts in the album he is making [10:58:36] this is his last album btw https://youtu.be/RFw40L_h3Fo?t=46 [11:20:18] I want to learn it on trumpet <-- if you want to play like the dude in the video, you probably should have started 10+ years ago [11:21:33] hehe [11:22:17] well I wasnt interested in playing trumpet back then [11:22:18] Or practice ten times so hard :D [11:22:29] I think I just started guitar actually [11:22:35] at which I am not very good either [11:22:49] well time to eat anyways [11:22:57] Fluburtur: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dv__vXiU8AAUSpe.jpg:large [11:23:10] lmao [11:23:30] kerbal space trumpet [11:36:31] making soundless music [11:36:52] sound of silence [11:37:40] hello darkness my old friend [11:37:48] http://sustainableskies.org/project-atos-wing-explores-ultralight-electric-soaring/ nice somehow [11:38:00] random link https://thepoorstudenthobbyist.wordpress.com/2017/06/25/how-to-make-an-nes-reproduction-cartridge/ [11:45:43] i might have some slight reservations about sitting an aircraft that's lighter than me [11:45:51] +in [11:45:55] lol [11:46:49] actually you want an aircraft that is as light as possible [11:47:13] uhm yeah, and then no wind. [11:47:30] or, sudden changes of wind direction/speed [12:07:24] interesting! https://www.centauri-dreams.org/2019/01/03/ultrahigh-acceleration-neutral-particle-beam-driven-sails/ [12:09:44] 100000g lol [12:09:52] what should it be made of? [12:10:34] thats the puzzling section [12:11:42] the new method stops particles and leaves em still [12:11:53] if field is large then yeah huge acceration [12:12:15] https://www.centauri-dreams.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/fig01-2.jpg [12:12:51] Beam peak power 18 TW [12:12:52] seemslegit [12:13:09] whats interesting is besides ring and of course cargo, its not made from matter so it bypasses many of solar sail issues [12:13:20] is this a "what if?" question? :p [12:13:29] i mean the xkcd way [12:13:40] from what I see, no [12:13:50] ref: 1. G.A. Landis, Optics and Materials Considerations for Laser-Propelled Lightsail, IAA-89-664, 1989. [12:14:21] i mean, it's totally proper science to play through the numbers [12:16:16] well this one does hold together better than emdrive does [12:16:27] latter is way too amgious and nobody understands it [12:18:13] i only skimmed this, but they said "our last proposal was shot down because the beam cannot be focused over large distances, so instead we make it more powerful", but i don't see any consideration what kind of probe would survive that acceleration [12:18:41] qactually that section they talk about previously using hyrogen ion, but figured mecury would be better [12:18:46] stays focused way more [12:19:00] ya was wondering about probe surivial [12:19:18] and now witness the power ofthis full armed and operational battlestation [12:19:35] at least the 18 tw beam is good enough to destroy most things [12:20:52] seems they can use sun also, just weaker [12:20:58] also how they slow down at end [12:21:08] you dont [12:21:20] what should it be made of? [12:21:27] metallic hydrogen [12:21:32] amiagine the catastrophe if the probe hits an alien city :) [12:21:37] you _make_ the probe with this acceleration [12:21:43] and you launch a probe raw material [12:21:51] if you can make it from metallic hydrogen that could be the fuel [12:21:52] see, easy [12:21:59] honestly hitting it instantly with 100k g isnt needed [12:22:03] just ramp up [12:22:13] how does that help? [12:22:18] minimizes jerk [12:22:25] doesnt matter the acceleration still destroys it [12:55:50] this is rather easy to play on trumpet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9M3b9lh-7s [12:55:50] YouTube - The Saints - Know your product [12:57:01] I have been testing the flight modes of my glider [12:57:13] angle mode works and return to home tries to stall the plane [13:17:03] if home is ground stall puts it to ground very fast :) [13:19:58] yeah [13:20:16] I should try the auto land thingy [13:20:30] set home to moon and you can be the first individual to land a glider on the moon :) [13:20:38] this flight controller software is pretty advanced [13:21:06] problem: auto land is very rough. solution auto land is not installed on the aircraft [13:21:22] I have auto land only as an emergency mode in case I cant control the aircraft [13:21:30] like if my radio runs out of battery [13:21:41] auto wash :) [13:21:51] the plane will notice that it doesnt get any inputs anymore so it will come back to home and land by itself [13:22:07] but I need to make sure the return to home works without stalling the plane first [13:22:59] I also added an auto trim mode so the plane flies nice [13:23:09] it is nose heavy but if I add more tail weight it becomes unstable [13:23:42] the stailiszed flight modes makes it glide very well tho, landing with that is pure pleasure [15:16:31] Step one: Buy a $20000 camera. [15:16:31] Step two: protect yourself behind a $30 plastic folding table.ÿ [15:16:38] yeah, classic slowmo guys [15:20:20] well... would you put a $30 camera behind a $20000 worth of plastic? [15:21:38] what would be something made of plastic that is so expensive [15:22:05] A glider? [15:22:28] im not sure gliders are that expensive [15:22:41] and even then, im not sure fiberglass composite qualifies as plastic [16:15:54] so notifications from twitter, line and telegram still arrive somehow [16:20:02] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [16:25:07] well I still dont have a name for my company [16:25:14] its only been like 7 months [16:25:36] hehe [16:25:44] you cant have a company without a name [16:26:17] yeah [16:26:35] I have been named "the fantastic flying frenchman" by several peoples but I dont think that would fit [16:26:42] hehe [16:31:53] ok was trying to think of something funny to come back with.. expensive camera, be thankful you don't need another expensive thing to keep stuff blowing it up :) [16:45:13] Fluburtur: i have a good name for your company [16:45:26] tell me [16:45:29] Fluburtur [16:45:33] lel [16:45:47] you're welcome [16:46:09] hehe [16:46:16] like to know what the company does [16:46:22] flub ur tur :) [16:46:28] rc [16:46:31] planes [16:46:42] rc Fluburtur [16:46:54] Flub-fliers?

[16:49:38] don't suppose anyones taken Flying Shticks? [16:49:54] Fluburtur aerospace and space and astronavigation and rc plane company [16:49:56] there you go man [16:50:00] perfect name [16:50:08] lel [16:50:33] ugh.. Ezko a bit of a mouthful.. good luck make'n labels with that [16:51:23] yeah but just a bit [16:51:48] Something short.. catchy.. usually helps [16:52:17] ok now i got it [16:52:21] FLBRTR [16:52:28] or UUU [16:52:56] hehe catchy... reminds me of the (fake) store called sofa king [16:53:36] hmm... Flub-tech? [16:53:44] Flubtech RC [16:54:01] flubtech is too close to flite test [16:54:03] same initials [16:54:12] techflub [16:54:13] ah you watch them too.. of course [16:54:15] lol 2 letter acronyms [16:54:20] everything is taken 200 times over [16:54:25] flute [16:54:38] even 3 letter acronyms are overcrowded [16:54:45] Well.. Flubjam RC? [16:54:45] Fluburtur: do you ship to finland [16:54:59] I could [16:55:02] shrug.. probably avoid using your name here a little [16:55:06] how much and what do i get [16:55:07] xd [16:55:14] lol [16:55:23] yeah I have been told I shouldnt have my nick in the name [16:55:23] sorta RC you hoping to make? [16:55:38] fpv equipment and scale planes [16:57:02] ah... [16:57:31] I might do my own designs of planes later [16:57:34] scale plane... flying scale :) [16:57:41] I have a hard enough time coming up with names myself... probably best you pick something youself, personalize it [16:57:53] im bad at names too [16:57:59] yes names are hard [16:58:02] i'm good at picking bad names [16:58:05] Cam-on-a-Wing Scaled RC [16:58:40] Flying Viewpoint [17:00:03] ponder... Flubflight... FF-FPV... [17:00:14] lota FFFFF.... [17:00:24] lots of fff is -1 :) [17:00:36] FFFFlight! [17:03:10] personally, I'd be a little worried about taking a name idea from someone... opens up to a legal issue if they wanna turn around and use it against you [17:03:29] yeah [17:03:33] yes better be safe [17:03:42] for example you make it big [17:03:52] then some guy appears, hey you are using the name i came up with [17:04:03] though, doesn't mean you can take the ideas as a way to come up with your own thing.. [17:04:27] doesn't mean you 'can't'... ugff.. hate when that happens [17:05:17] people usually write regexes to correct but i hate that [17:05:29] regexes? [17:05:49] s/can/can't/ [17:05:50] eg: s/foo/bar/ [17:06:13] in fact it is a very simple form of regex with a fixed part to match [17:06:30] uh oh.. that/ [17:07:10] I've seen it a few times, just never picked up on it myself [17:07:56] that and was a little frustrated with myself, that sorta error comes up a bit with me I notifced.. can/'t ... usually [17:08:11] bear/beer.... c.c; [17:08:30] wow https://youtu.be/YjkyxaHC7lU?t=307 [17:09:07] how does that work [17:09:12] his hands dont even move that fast [17:09:22] double tapping each hand [17:09:30] like bouncing the stick [17:10:52] I would not like to be hit by a 18TW mercury particle beam, even in the name of science [17:11:01] hehe [17:11:11] and accelerate at 100000g [17:11:14] uh [17:11:33] this is crazy alk... at least for now [17:14:09] hate to see the recoil [17:14:41] https://youtu.be/JSvJKbcuN1Q [17:14:42] YouTube - Amazing Snare Drum Solo Using a Xymox Percussion Drum Pad [17:15:57] hate to be a beam traffic controller if that particle method takes up and we'd need to support some hundred beams [17:16:42] beam traffic controller [17:16:48] what is [17:17:12] ... guessing when you get a lot of transporter traffic to deal with? [17:17:23] well, someone needs to coordinate all that energy we'd need to blast into space to propel a few hundred probes or so [17:17:34] there probably need to be maintenance windows, too [17:17:37] "beam me up" sorry.. gotta wait till the jam clears up first [17:17:43] very simple. you have one beam :) [17:18:35] transport beam (Star trek) vs transport tube (Futurama) [17:18:52] just not the space balls transporter :) [17:19:16] wasn't considering.. it only had a 'bit part' in the movie [17:19:52] though... transporter (space balls) vs transporter (the fly) [17:19:59] hehe [17:20:11] it may have been an early alfa bug [17:20:13] :) [17:20:23] right now.. hate being up since 3am.. [17:22:50] KSP sitting idle in background... because wondering what to do in new early career with 1.5.1, and feeling more social than going through yet another early career play [17:23:09] early career is the best [17:23:25] after i get most of the parts i use regularly it starts to get boring really fastr [17:23:25] still remember Scott's game breaking episode back in early career [17:23:51] finish tech tree in only 3 missions or something? [17:23:57] hehe [17:24:08] not much better since then [17:24:12] mind you.. back before spamming sci off one part [17:24:34] also, going faster than orbital speed on just jets [17:24:38] because only klerbin soi is enough to get around everything [17:25:24] there should be a need to explore [17:25:36] considering poking CKan hence why only using 1.5.1 at the moment. Just not sure which mods yet. I want to keep stock, more just visual, some utilities, and at least KIS/KAS or something [17:25:37] not to mention the cheaty lab part [17:26:15] the problem is, by the time you get to eve, you already have the tree [17:26:17] so why go there [17:26:18] maybe mess with RP0... but on a different folder [17:26:42] uff... yet to get past minmus.. by the time I get to that stage, ooop, version update [17:26:56] these versions are mostly compatible [17:27:02] even i updated from 1.5 to 1.65 [17:27:08] -5 [17:27:27] not much is going on [17:27:32] at least parts look better [17:27:42] and i dont know which one is what [17:29:01] I've got plays that stuck hanging right now in past versions. I'd love to still play them, though now thinking recording some stuff. [17:30:04] wonder why the old three person capsule is hidden.. not just make it early version in the tree, with upgrade that is lighter, more refined [17:31:15] because it is the same. so it is hidfden for compatibility reasons [17:31:26] after a while removed [17:31:37] i hated the old one because it was so heavy [17:33:08] ok so new one is lighter, but does that mess with weight balance on rockets a bit? [17:33:21] balance? no [17:33:29] unless you positioned it on the side because of some reason [17:33:32] light pod on one end, heavy engine on the other.. shrug [17:33:49] reentry? [17:33:57] can be, but at least now your engine will be first [17:34:06] launching [17:34:15] then you have mostly fuel anyway [17:36:40] didn't mind the weight ... much. only time I had a challenge was getting my 'Carter' into orbit... had to drain the tanks a bit to get it within weight limit.. [17:37:20] usually weight meant i chose some hilariously ugly cabins [17:37:23] like 3 lander cans [17:37:27] those were lot lighter [17:37:43] so purely on engineering reasons there was never a need for the 3 person cabin [17:37:57] only bercause of looks [17:39:13] Carter design sorta evolved out of an idea I had, but was too small at first. One of my first 'true spacecraft', ie meant to stay in orbit, fly between kerbin and the moons [17:40:43] Fluburtur: it's not really a "snare" drum [17:40:55] suppose to carry a lander in its body... or cargo pod. I try to be a bit 'neat and practical' when it comes to designs. Stuff in early early career, not so much because of part limits [17:46:16] how does that work <-- it's actually fairly simple, you throw the stick down with your hand motion, but you hold it so loosely that it bounces back up and lands a second time [17:46:49] so to make a 200bpm beat each of your hands only have to move at 50bpm [17:49:05] it only gets really tricky if you want to play triplets :p [17:50:13] because with triplets you need to alternate hands, LRL - RLR - LRL - RLR and that quickly gets confusing :p [17:52:19] and the real brainfuck starts when you need to play triplet 8ths with one hand, and straight 8ths with the other hand, and 4ths with your foot [17:53:10] lol [17:53:18] you use midi for that :) [18:08:17] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [18:10:59] ..... [18:11:12] contract to fly to a crew report waypoint, under 19.1 km [18:11:44] fly out with winged missile basically. Managed to make it back /and/ land on runway for full recovery [18:11:55] well minus SRB for boosting up off the pad with [18:12:51] not exactly the most efficient flier, or best controlled, it did get the job done. https://imgur.com/a/Rr3X5cI [18:12:51] https://i.imgur.com/d7b7kEg.jpg [18:14:28] lol [18:14:50] i would have just made a single hop in a rocket [18:16:07] but, "under 19km" could as well be a plane? [18:16:29] Althego too easy... [18:16:38] Eddi|zuHause didn't unlock parts yet [18:16:42] but i usually dont get the plane parts [18:16:51] just when they are already cheap [18:18:07] craft only 4700 w/booster. 3900 w/out [18:18:45] solids are cheap [18:19:13] ended up full recovery on craft, minus fuel used [18:19:55] I'm not trying to min/max things.. honestly didn't think I'd get it right on the runway. I was hoping for flat terrain next to the center at the very least [18:20:27] there are cases with probes it is cheaoer to let them crash [18:20:46] because you can run something else [18:22:14] lol.. didn't unlock the 'spark' yet.. but contract to test it. half tempted to abuse the contract, get the part, use it for a probe to the mun, then run a second mission, splash it like contract wants. [18:22:32] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [18:22:32] obviously do that [18:22:52] once you take the contract you have years to complete it [18:24:54] trouble is.. don't have fairings or nosecones yet.. so going to really drag up to orbit.. [18:27:12] overrated :) [18:29:08] well... long as you not going too ast. [18:29:11] ast/fast [18:32:03] doesnt work without the s/// [18:32:28] or rather it does nto need to be a / usually [18:32:50] ok .. maybe explain how it should be then? I'm not used to it [18:33:13] s/regex to match/string to replace it with/ s is probably for substitute [18:35:16] alright? It actually does an edit? My understanding was in irc, once its said, its stuck [18:35:36] it doesnt in irc [18:35:41] but it does with sed >( [18:35:44] sed [18:35:54] or most things that use regex [18:36:00] like vim [18:36:03] Action: UmbralRaptop hugs vim [18:36:07] heh [18:36:35] well, ordered the PCBs and components for my first products [18:36:37] I'm on the web based... otherwise if I ever got around to it, I'd have stuck mIRC on here from other machine [18:38:10] this doesnt seem mutch but because of the power of the regex you can do complex stuff. like s/^[\t ]*[^%$!]([a-zA-Z])+/wonderful \1/g [18:38:25] and this is why it is essentially write only [18:39:00] https://xkcd.com/1171/ [18:39:41] as most editors support regex, it is good to know at least some of it [18:48:37] Action: JVFoxy reads up on regex and ends up a bit cross eyed. 'ugh..?" [18:51:01] so when it comes to fixing typo's...? [18:51:32] then you do whatever you want :) [18:52:23] i usually dont correct them, because i assume people can correct it for themselves, except in cases when it can be misunderstood [18:52:56] nod... just thought was some sort of convention when it comes to how to amend an error. [19:02:13] i think i saw the iss this morning [19:02:39] not planned on it, but bright white dot not blinking moving steadily [19:02:58] and it was supposedly visible at that direction at that time [19:07:30] where and when? [19:09:33] from hungary [19:17:05] if it was in the last hour or so.. probably not ISS [19:17:12] this morning [19:17:19] heavens above confirmed it [19:17:52] as i said it was visible in that direction at that time, so what i probably saw was the iss [19:18:01] ok.. was going to say, if you saw the light just now.. [19:18:36] I was out some months back, had one of the sats on the beam, I was about to put stuff away when I saw ISS scoot across [19:23:03] just checked a site I usually go to... next 10 passes, only visible near the very last few moments... guess wrong time of the year to see it here [19:27:49] https://youtu.be/ERo0lTyUvOk?t=12 [19:28:42] heh towbot [19:32:48] a while back, came across footage of Japanese Zero, engine startup and flying sound [19:34:29] youtube is a magical place, peoples crying because of missing swatiska on WWII german planes [19:34:36] lol [19:34:52] I think they are allowed for historical reasons like museum planes but the flying ones are privately owned so they cant have it [19:35:18] well, here you actually cant put that up on things. also red star with (5 pointed) [19:35:56] haha no, really? alien isolation sequel will be mobile only [19:38:09] cue obligatory redsheirt guy [19:38:32] when I build a rc 109 it will have all the historical parkings [19:38:41] so then peoples can call me a nazi [19:38:48] meh.. logo.. it flies fine without it.. [19:38:53] nice bird though [19:38:55] and then I show them my french planes with german vixtory marks [19:39:53] but the airplane symbols were a simple cross [19:40:17] or maybe there was a "hakenkreutz" too [19:40:26] given how half the comments there are of people dumping on each other... everyone's gotta have an opinion, and think it should be the only one. [19:40:45] yes there was one on the tail [19:40:51] i always remembered the one on the body [19:40:59] and wings [19:42:16] personally, I think the war sucked, for /everyone/... but its now history.. gotta learn from it. Germany wants to forget about it... [19:48:14]
