[00:22:58] Sons and daughters of Kerbin: Fight XCOM and buy and ADVENT calendar today! [00:25:48] Action: UmbralRaptop groans [00:28:16] On the first day of Christmas the Elders gave to me: A Muton with a plasma grenade! [00:34:27] So, thoughts on KSP 1.6? [00:40:16] Obviously the precursor to stock MECHJEB [00:40:34] Action: Scolar_Visari goes to see what all the hub-bub is about regarding the Avengers trailer [00:43:40] I don't get what the trouble is. Why don't they just get Goku, find all the Dragon Balls and wish everyone back to life? [00:43:52] Action: UmbralRaptop would be amused if Kerbal Alarm Clock or kRPC becomes stock [00:44:06] KAC is extraordinarily useful. [00:44:33] I can't imagine having lived without it. Sort of like living without oxygen. Sure, those obligate anaerobes didn't need it, but isn't it nice? [00:45:59] hah [00:46:27] Though, much like the internet, I can't go long without oxygen any more. [00:51:36] Moar water https://phys.org/news/2018-12-osiris-rex-asteroid-bennu-excellent-mission.html [00:53:21] This summer, THEY are the law . . . SNIPERSLAWW [00:53:56] judge dredd, but with a sniper rifle? [00:55:19] And a boonie hat. [00:55:59] "Crikey, looks like this blokes breakin, the law . . . SNIPERSLAW. Better put a bullet 'tween that mates eyes before I clock out." [00:57:25] "Hrmm . . . Looks like this un's gone walk around in a no trespassing zone. Better use my incendiary rounds for 'em." [00:58:18] This summer, the law comes to cinemas worldwide . . . SNIPERSLAWW. [01:00:25] Ooooh https://www.deviantart.com/grahamtg/art/Bernal-Sphere-765384120 [01:00:26] Action: UmbralRaptop recalls running across a writeup of a 40k campaign that had a dredd expy in a random hive city. [01:00:57] UmbralRaptor: That's not hard to imagine given that the Adeptus Custodes (Imperial law enforcement) are ripoffs of the old Dredd comics' style. [01:01:24] Excuse me, Adeptus Arbites. [01:01:57] THE EMPEROR IS THE LAW! http://pro.bols.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/arbites-horz.jpg [01:03:38] Necromunda used to have models for the Enforcers, which were not-arbites if I recall correctly http://www.solegends.com/citcat2005spc/c2005spcp0018-01.jpg [01:04:14] But close. [01:10:13] What we really need is an Imperial Guard army closely modeled after the World War II Wehrmacht . . . With horse drawn carts brought up behind exhausted infantry and very few tanks because most broke down before battle and the spare parts couldn't get there in time. [01:10:42] I'd proposition an elite paratrooper unit that's not actually done an airdrop in centuries. [01:12:29] o_O [01:13:01] Action: Scolar_Visari notes the Fallschermjaeger did very few and only small scale drops after Crete. [01:13:18] ah [01:16:01] They, thus, mostly served as infantry and anti-aircraft artillery throughout the war. The grounding of the Luftwaffe certainly didn't help. Unless you were on the Allies side, of course, then it was a big help. [01:22:07] There was a robot uprising, and well, now we are in control. <-- by any chance did they wear yellow vests? [01:23:49] ðŸ¤– [01:24:24] i can't tell what that's supposed to be :) [01:24:44] Pferdekrieg! https://olive-drab.com/images/army-horses-mules_ww2_06_700.jpg [01:26:38] Eddi|zuHause: U+1F916 robot face [01:27:24] pferd? [01:27:48] what's wrong with Pferd? [01:29:20] I'm not familiar with the word, and was hoping for a definition [01:29:58] Pferd means Horse [01:30:04] ah [01:30:09] thanks [01:30:18] as obviously these two words are etymologically related. [01:30:42] o_O [01:35:26] well, i don't really think they are [01:36:05] Horse is pretty closely related to german Ross, but that is an uncommon word nowadays [01:39:54] UmbralRaptop: Rule of thumb for German: If something takes multiple words to describe, you can just go ahead, get rid of those spaces and make it all one word. [01:39:55] Pferd is apparently derived from latin paraveredus [01:40:39] Scolar_Visari: occasionally you must add additional "s" or "e" [01:42:22] Or a ß [01:43:31] that is not typically a result of merging words :p [01:45:34] It is in the Großvisarireich [01:46:07] but "groß" has that in it by itself, it's not a result of merging the words [01:46:09] Which reminds me, I need to create that in Stellaris [01:46:17] question: is bremßtrahlung a misspelling? [01:46:24] very [01:46:40] Ah, but little do you know that the German version of Visari is Svisari.! [01:47:18] UmbralRaptop: I just simplify it and call it braking radiation. Not to be confused with breakfast radiation, which is what you get when something is left in the toaster too long. [01:47:51] Scolar_Visari: "ß" can be replaced by "ss", but two "s" from separate words don't merge into one "ß", so the reverse doesn't work [01:48:23] Scolar_Visari: also, hot coffee emits blackbody radiation, right? [01:48:48] Eddi: Why are you using the Terran rules of German spelling? We've already established such will be changed in my glorious 12 or so year empire. [01:49:09] 12? we never deal with empires below 1000. [01:49:22] Action: Scolar_Visari glares at that *other* 12 year or so reich. [01:49:34] you mean the 1000 year reich. [01:50:06] Action: Scolar_Visari will also ensure that all increments of 1,000 are properly displayed with a comma. [01:50:51] UmbralRaptop: Now that I think about it, you may be confusing blackbody radiation with hot coffee Cherenkov radiation. [01:51:41] Eggs, of course, are the only kind of breakfast radiation with a black body spectrum. Hence the yellow [01:51:47] i think you're most likely encountering thermal radiation with black coffee [01:51:48] mmm& blue glow& [01:52:04] Eddi: Only if you take your coffee without cream and sugar neutrons! [01:53:19] Think of it: If coffee radiation was a black body, would you not feel the radiation before sipping on one that was warm enough to cause third degree burns and severe caffeination sickness? [01:54:36] Huh, Elite Chapter 4 comes out next week? That soon? [01:55:42] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [01:56:04] APlayer has joined the game! [01:56:26] Action: Scolar_Visari would insert a quarter to join, but they're not a big fan of single screen beat-em-ups. [01:56:56] Oh wait, no, it's out tomorrow! [01:57:08] That's weird, too, as the beta just ended last week. [01:58:24] question: is bremßtrahlung a misspelling? <-- an "ß" can never span multiple syllables, so "brems|strah|lung" these 's'es are completely separate and can't be represented by an "ß", not to mention that you cannot separate an "st" (well, actually, they relaxed that rule a bit) [01:58:57] Eddi: Of course, I issued a decree relaxing all grammatical rules! [01:59:04] but at least in this case, the (st) binds stronger than the (ss) [01:59:10] El Presidente Visari: Most bestest grammatarian. [01:59:46] Action: Scolar_Visari patiently awaits for the stabbing of Mars https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/1812/ArmSeismometer_InSight_1024.jpg [02:00:05] that's definitely photoshopped [02:01:09] Look at those artifacts! [02:01:24] and "patiently": didn't they say it takes them like half a year to decide where to actually put down the borehole? [02:02:20] Yay, stab [02:02:59] Well, you know, Mars aint the kind of place to drill a hole. In fact, it's hard as Hell. [02:04:54] Eddi|zuHause: Dienstag ;) [02:05:26] well, that is Marsday, after all :) [02:06:59] I would be more satisfied with a deep core sample return. [02:07:16] Admittedly, we tried (and failed?) to perform a pair of high velocity stabs in 1999. [02:08:07] UmbralRaptop: Some unintentionally! [02:08:43] Those were more slaps that stabs [02:08:57] (RIP Deep Space 2) [02:10:48] (the romans named the weekdays after the sun, the moon and the 5 planets mars, jupiter, mercury, venus and saturn) [02:10:55] (when they encountered the germanic people, they matched the germanic gods to their "equivalent" roman gods, so jupiter's day became wodan's day (wednesday)) [02:11:40] (they equated the roman god mars with the germanic god tyr/diewes, thus we got tuesday/Dienstag) [02:11:48] Eddi: I think I was less after the planets and more for the deities with the planets were named after! [02:12:25] (although, etymologically tyr/diewes is actually related to the roman jupiter) [02:12:49] (but the romans did not know this indoeuropean common root) [02:13:02] The one true sky deity is Zeus! [02:13:24] that one is actually the same as Jupiter [02:13:33] Caelus! [02:13:47] Eddi: Not, quite. [02:14:07] The Romans were not big on mythology as the Greeks were, and Jupiter was not as, ah, "human" as Zeus. [02:14:21] The difference isn't as notable as it was for Venus and Mars, though. [02:14:29] etymologically speaking, Zeu(s) Pater is the same as Iu Piter [02:16:17] well, mythologically these diverged a bit since the common indoeuropean root pantheon [02:16:39] that's how the romans didn't quite make the right eqiuvalences with the germanic pantheon [02:17:05] Action: Scolar_Visari notes the Romans also tended to reinterpret deities over and over again. [02:17:27] Though I think it's funny they would identify Mars with Ares, as the latter was seldom actually worshipped. [02:18:29] also note that we actually have no records of the original indoeuropean pantheon, or language, or culture, it's all reconstructed from the currently known languages and projected through ancestry relations [02:19:40] Psht, just ask the Atlanteans. [02:19:54] we also have no real clue where the indoeuropean people actually lived, as it's not possible to match it with found archaeological artifacts [02:20:56] Space. [02:20:58] Duh. [02:21:48] the two mostly discussed ideas are either north of the black sea (modern ukraine) or south of the black sea (modern turkey), but it's nearly impossible to confirm either one [02:22:02] best warning https://www.lanl.gov/discover/publications/connections/2018-10/science.php [02:22:40] UmbralRaptop: Needs moar pictographs [02:22:50] Eddi: Because they came from Atlantis! [02:23:50] UmbralRaptop: with people's general ability to understand and follow orders, i wonder what the fraction of people is that see that and go "well, neat, i'll put this in my chest pocket and go on with my way" [02:24:17] "Wow, this is hot! I should hold on to it more!" [02:24:47] Scolar_Visari: i think we have even more possible locations for atlantis :) [02:25:30] Eddi: Yes, my research indicates it's located somewhere on a piece of papyrus or parchment scribed by Plato himself. [02:25:58] Atlantis: The Tiny Kingdom. [02:26:12] my teacher used to say "they surveyed about 30 odd potential locations for atlantis, and they have found evidence for it on every single one of those" [02:27:46] Well, it is rather easy when you're dealing with a place someone made up. Sort of like how one can find evidence for ancient aliens everywhere. [02:28:30] note to self: 1 Ci is 37 GBq [02:28:54] that sounds unhealthy [02:30:25] Action: Scolar_Visari looks at Wikipedia's talk page for Atlantis, is not surprised. [02:32:13] To be fair, the Becquerel is a small unit, so you often end up giving it amusingly large prefixes. [02:32:53] Scolar_Visari: did the flat earthers discover atlantis yet? [02:33:00] 3.5 g of Co-60 is, uh, 146 TBq for instance. [02:33:21] Eddi: It's underneath the flat Earth, and no one's journeyed there yet. [02:33:24] "The existence of Atlantis is in dispute. It is neither fact nor fiction, because objectively neither is known for sure. A SIZEABLE faction of historians and archaeologists believe it exists." [02:33:38] UmbralRaptop: that photo looks like more than 3.5g [02:34:26] hrm [02:35:03] Scolar_Visari: were these historians found with an SEM or TEM? [02:35:52] Scolar_Visari: however, whether people believe in something is no indication in either direction of "real or fiction" [02:36:10] UmbralRaptop: Amusingly, the person who wrote that linked a summary of a radio show program in which an author who was neither a historian nor an archaeologist was interviewed. [02:36:37] Action: Scolar_Visari mutters something something no histiography prior to Plato. Something something idealized poli. [02:36:42] Scolar_Visari: was it an "expert"? [02:36:55] Eddi: In the same way that guy with the crazy hair is an expert on Ancient Aliens? [02:37:12] eh, 3540 Ci is only 131TBq. You only risk getting as much as 0.1 Sv/s [02:37:36] Scolar_Visari: i mean like "news" shows invite "experts" on terrorism [02:37:55] Scolar_Visari: radio show& coast to coast am? [02:38:12] Scolar_Visari: where what qualifies them as "expert" is "they've once written an article about it in a newspaper" [02:38:22] UmbralRaptop: On Point, a public radio program. [02:38:44] A book from the personage interviewed https://www.amazon.com/Meet-Me-Atlantis-Continents-Legendary/dp/1101983930 [02:39:39] hrm [02:40:33] Action: Scolar_Visari ponders if people in the far future will stop and think if Mega City 1 was a real place. [02:41:04] or Westeros? [02:41:07] "I mean, it's existence and that of the notorious Street Judges were well documented in the 2000 AD texts!" [02:41:16] Eddi: Good luck to them in trying to figure out how that silly star works. [02:42:12] Scolar_Visari: i'm imagining Galaxy Quest now, where they viewed "historical documents" and recreated them as best as they could [02:42:55] Eddi: I mean, it makes as much sense to treat Atlantis as real as it would to treat Utopia or Liliput as real. [02:43:25] Action: Scolar_Visari actually snickers at the thought of Swift himself being amused by such a confusion. [02:43:33] doesn't "utopia" translate to "unreal place"? [02:44:13] or "no place" [02:44:22] Eddi: Indeed, and it's the name of the best known pieces of Medieval literature. [02:44:44] Sort of like The Republic, I guess. [02:45:24] was that Thomas Morus? [02:45:36] That's SIR Thomas More! [02:45:47] Also, full text: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/2130/2130-h/2130-h.htm [02:46:14] back in school i knew someone who was deeply into that philosophical stuff [02:46:34] "Your IP Address is Blocked from www.gutenberg.org" [02:46:57] Forgot to pay your HPG bills to Comstar again? [02:47:29] apparently they took a page from the youtube vs gema book and blocked all of germany [02:47:39] http://www.fullbooks.com/Utopia1.html [02:48:09] Gutenberg.org must be under interdict by the Blakists! [02:48:56] it's even more funny because gutenberg was german. [02:48:58] At least you still have an internet connection. I remember when all the HPGs went out. Back in my day, we had to put messages on DropShips and send them in envelopes! [02:50:50] anyway, does 15th century england still count as "medieval"? [02:51:04] Out here in the Periphery, you were even lucky if you got satellite coverage on a world! I had to pay some jockey on a Flea FLE-19 to go around and deliver me packages! [02:51:15] Eddi: Medieval is a rather nebulous term to begin with. [02:52:15] It depends on whether you try and classify the Renaissance as a separate period of time or not. [02:52:21] when i hear "medieval" my association is more like 800-1300s [02:53:39] I think *most* Medieval historians tend to go well into the 15th Century. "The Renaissance" is often not taken as happening all at once. Sir Thomas More, for instance, is often cited as one of the early figures of the English Renaissance. [02:54:08] i can go with that [02:54:32] Medieval ends with gunpowder. [02:54:58] darsie: Ah, but gunpowder was around a long time ala The Hundred Years War. [02:55:08] Unless you researched one of those other technologies that got you into the Medieval era. [02:55:36] Action: Scolar_Visari grumbles at the Civilization series' blatantly Eurocentric eras and their baggage. [02:56:21] i once read a funny thread where people in the EUIV forum complained how eurocentric the game was [02:57:07] i mean, how could a game called "europa universalis" not be eurocentric? [02:57:25] what were they expecting from that name? [02:58:35] Well, cough, it is also Universalis. [03:00:18] Civilization, however, has the pretense of playing as any number of global civilizations. [03:00:34] like, australia? [03:00:44] Action: Scolar_Visari also grumbles about Cleopatra being the first choice as Egypt's leader despite being a Ptolemy. [03:01:22] they made a few odd choices for leaders because they wanted to have more women, i guess [03:02:18] and then they made cleopatra so weirdly oversexualized. [03:02:39] There were several more female leaders they could've chosen, such as Hatshepsut. [03:03:18] unrelated, i'm not quite sure how historically accurate their depiction of barbarossa is [03:03:21] Why the final leader of a Greek dynasty that completely excluded natives from the power structure? [03:03:47] That'd be like choosing Hirohito as ruler of Korea! [03:05:59] Scolar_Visari: how about choosing petain as ruler of france? :p [03:06:17] Action: Scolar_Visari also ponders why separating Greece into Sparta and Athens made any sense. [03:06:50] Eddi: I was trying to go for a state that had been under rule for a couple of generations, and the Japanese occupation of Korea was the only thing I could come up with on short notice. [03:07:14] Befitting, too, given the similar divine leadership. [03:08:22] well, as long as they stick to not putting hitler in... [03:08:24] Glad I didn't get VI. Inca don't real, Maya don't real, Babylon don't real. [03:08:34] Eddi: That's what mods are for! [03:08:35] Action: Scolar_Visari shudders. [03:09:55] "But he improved the economy and buil-" "NO HE DID NOT." [03:10:42] i quite like the game mechanics of VI [03:11:09] If Hitler is ever a leader in a Civilization game, they better make William Henry Harrison an option for the United States. [03:11:09] but they went down some silly paths with the "civilisations" they picked [03:11:47] who is that? [03:11:57] Eddi: I, for once, wish they would ditch the boardgame mechanics and move into sandbox, create your own civilization territory. [03:12:23] Eddi|zuHause: A president who died ~30 days after entering office. [03:13:11] is that the one that (alledgedly) caught a cold on his inauguration speech because that went on for hours [03:13:41] Action: UmbralRaptop is reminded of how Civ 1 made a Macedonian the leader of the Greeks [03:13:47] The very same. [03:14:00] UmbralRaptop: Oh they've done that a few times since, Civilization V, for instance. [03:14:12] Though, to its credit, Macedonia is its own civilization now! [03:14:36] Scolar_Visari: but germany had an emperor that wasn't even emperor for a full year. that would be a better match [03:15:23] Eddi: There are lots of leaders like that. I recall there being a Spanish emperor who left the priesthood, bore a child and then abdicated soon after. [03:17:03] emperor Friedrich Wilhelm I died a few months after his father, Wilhelm I, making Wilhelm II the emperor. if he had lived longer, maybe WWI never would have happened [03:17:54] Action: Scolar_Visari mutter something about listening to Bismarck and Austrian shenanigans in the Balkans. [03:19:04] he might have been more liberal and england-friendly, opposing to the more authoritarian Wilhelm II [03:19:38] who was more akin to his grandfather than his father [03:20:37] More Russia and France friendly would've definitely helped. More Austria unfriendly would've been better. [03:22:10] well, the emperors of germany and russia were very close cousins and friends, hasn't helped the politics between them at all really... [03:23:15] Hence Russia and France. I mean, the latter country has some pretty scenic countrysides. [03:24:26] well, i don't see how the relationship with france could have been saved in any way [03:24:28] Even more scenic when they're not covered in a Moonscape terrain like some cheesy Command & Conquer map. [03:25:00] Eddi: Lots of wine. And I mean TONS. [03:25:33] Enough to inebriate the Kaiser into thinking he's actually in Austria and is signing a new treaty of friendship. [03:26:10] The trick is to stop the French from poisoning said wine over that Alsace-Lorraine business. [03:27:42] If it worked for Sergei Korolev, surely we can scale that up to truly global scales! [03:29:15] ? [03:29:19] Action: Scolar_Visari now begins to ponder an alternate history series where the consumption of alcohol at formal functions begets different outcomes. [03:29:56] UmbralRaptop: The French had never really forgiven Germany over the Franco Prussia War. [03:31:01] Alsace-Lorraine was ceded to the new German state after the war, and its return was one of France's casus belli. [03:32:18] no, no, the bit about Korolev [03:33:53] Oh, yeah. According to his biography by James Harford, Korolev was not above inebriating party leaders during their visits to any number of his facilities. [03:34:19] It was one of his many ways of breaking through the Byzantine structure of the Soviet space program and getting things done. [03:40:55] is stuttering to be expected in ksp? I don't remember it being this bad [03:41:38] I can hear my gpu coil whine stop and start, its very annoying [03:41:41] How long has it been since you've played it? [03:41:53] I play for a few hours every couple months [03:42:03] Action: Scolar_Visari can't actually remember much stuttering, ever, and they're using a ten year old chipset. [03:42:17] Action: Neal is on very new hardware [03:42:27] ryzen 1700, 980ti overclocked [03:42:29] actually [03:42:31] Are there any other games with similar problems? I know Unity can be . . . finicky. [03:42:32] Client: HexChat 2.14.2 " OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro (x64) " CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Eight-Core Processor (3.00GHz) " Memory: 15.9 GiB Total (9.9 GiB Free) " Storage: 2.6 TiB / 5.7 TiB (3.0 TiB Free) " VGA: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti " Uptime: 1w 3d 10h 7m 7s [03:42:48] Action: Scolar_Visari notes Battletech, also a Unity game, has severe performance issues at times. [03:43:07] I don't have issues in other games, but I don't play many unity games. [03:43:20] Any new mods? [03:43:23] well Rust does stutter, but I think thats just because its rust [03:43:30] happens with all mods removed as well [03:43:46] Hrm . . . We must go deeper down the space rabbit hole. [03:44:08] do you know of any tools to get more detailed info about framerates/frametimes? I want to quantize my experience [03:44:21] get some hard numbers [03:44:35] Ah, better yet: Is this on a new game or does it only happen once you're so many days into gameplay? [03:45:58] https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/139128-12x13-memgraph-1103-with-stutter-reduction/ [03:47:15] Action: Scolar_Visari is actually surprised KSP runs at all on their PC as well as it does. [03:47:31] Which reminds me, I probably should update my driver before Elite 3.4 launches. [03:50:04] In the mean time, I suppose it's just one more day till I unlock War Thunder's M4 Sherman? [03:50:17] oh you play WT? [03:50:40] Just since last week, it's more fun than I anticipated. Watching what your shells do when they penetrate an enemy tank is rather satisfying. [03:50:56] yeah it is [03:51:02] Already got a T-34 and Su-122, too! [03:51:35] be aware that around the sherman line in the tech tree, you become the punching bag of soviets/germany [03:52:01] Psht, muh 76 mm will see to their 90 degree armor plating. [03:52:21] HVAP and APRC for the win! [03:53:31] btw stutters under all circumstances, even with small ships [03:54:20] How long have you had the stuttering problem? [03:55:07] well, at least 2 years [03:55:25] You you ever uninstalled/reinstalled the game? [03:55:40] yeah, moved it between drives too [03:57:11] Action: Scolar_Visari notes that, upon inspection, the Tier III Shermans should only have serious problems with the Jagdpanzers given the 76 mm. [03:57:26] Neal: This may sound silly, but have you updated GPU drivers and the like lately? [03:58:32] I'd still definitely recommend MemGraph. [03:59:16] got it installed rn, testing it out [04:01:03] Hrm, heck, the old 3 inch guns should penetrate a Tiger at the front within one kilomter. [04:02:48] Everything's Gone Green! https://i.imgur.com/ccSA72q.png [04:02:54] the graph doesn't tell me much [04:03:12] As I thought: Unity hates you. [04:03:35] what am I looking at? [04:04:27] did you learn anything from that graph? [04:04:52] It should look like this https://i.imgur.com/tUUtX2i.png [04:04:58] Yours is . . . worringly solid. [04:06:20] my heap values are lower than that of what you linked though [04:06:30] min/current at least [04:06:54] Now now little human, who is the self appointed expert on . . . Wait, what's your problem again? [04:07:09] I recommend posting on that thread as a start. [04:08:22] do you know what its referring to when its talking about mod-[key] keycombos? [04:08:29] I don't know what the mod key is [04:08:36] The end key on your keyboard. [04:10:44] something else weird is happening. 11gb of ram in use but the most ram intentsive process is chrome, at 1.13gb [04:11:03] Browsers are hogs. [04:11:42] Neal: that might not properly counting shared libraries [04:13:49] I'm going to try rebooting [04:14:05] and also getting new gpu drivers (even though these are stable..) [04:14:54] Action: Scolar_Visari goes off to install own GPU drivers [04:15:57] I'm glad nvidia FINALLY added support for standalone driver downloads [04:16:15] having to log into geforce experience all the time was very annoying [04:24:58] apparently I didn't need a reboot [04:25:04] but I will anyway [04:32:32] updating my gpu drivers broke my sound, nice [04:35:16] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [05:13:08] updating my drivers seems to have cut down on the stuttering significantly [05:48:25] at least you don't have a game where if you look at it funny, the whole system freezes [05:58:45] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [06:27:50] so it has been a few days already. did chang'e 4 land? [06:28:38] what, lands in january? what are they doing with it until then [06:31:14] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [07:50:38] Last message repeated 2 time(s).

[09:22:20] ok [09:22:40] I have an idea for an aerospike engine [09:22:42] and get flat earthers to fund it [10:31:25] Fluburtur: if it would be so easy [10:31:48] I always wonder about how this works. Some people manage to get funding for the stupidest things. How do they do that? [10:32:05] they tingle the right string or something like that [10:32:17] and flat earthers are pretty gullible so maybe not that hard [10:33:02] But I'm talking about the big investors [10:33:09] how do they get them to see them? [10:35:01] idk [11:06:55] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [11:13:58] I mean, I could try to bother and annoy someone like Richard Branson with the rocket engine idea [11:14:06] but I feel bad about doing this [12:39:54] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [13:14:44] during test launch a AA missile of S-300 complex failed (and quite spectacularly) https://cv1.pikabu.ru/video/2018/12/10/1544464294250977067_264x480.webm [13:15:11] hah expensive fireworks [13:15:41] i guess those are large chuncks of solid fuel? [13:16:08] also it happened on polygon so no homes were damaged (at least no info on that) [13:20:47] Gasher[work]: I thought the same thing [13:21:02] since it's a single stage solid fuel rocket motor [13:21:03] also might not be that missile exactly [13:21:15] so, waiting for official comment [13:21:34] why is chang'e 4 not landing until january? [13:22:32] system checks maybe?

[19:46:05] hehe internal view from space [19:48:15] i wouldnt have thought that the soyuz is soft on the outside [19:50:56] looks a bit ad hoc [19:51:56] https://66.media.tumblr.com/1d6074feb6bde01ddf481b247c6a5d47/tumblr_pjjr3snDkl1ttwx09_540.gif [19:53:21] it's aaaaaaallll ver nominal [19:54:03] HE'S GOT A KNIFE [19:54:31] first he wanted to make a hole for the securing rope so that he could make an other hole [19:54:37] holeception [19:56:37] ah yes it is all in a huge pool. must be a dense water that makes the metals float [19:56:56] plant shears!~ [19:57:26] looks like some kind of gardening tool [19:58:03] maybe for hedging [19:59:04] they did surgery on a soyuz [20:04:29] 4 hours? [20:04:40] does the cloth on the soyuz just burns off at reentry? [20:04:46] man things take really long time inn space [20:05:01] that is the orbital moodule, it burns anyway [20:05:28] the reentry capsule has it as well [20:05:32] I think it rips away when the command module separates from the decent module [20:05:37] but the returning capsule seems to be the same [20:05:58] nm there is a joint between the two [20:08:55] hehe be careful with the scissors :) [20:10:43] first guy with a spaceship knife kill [20:10:45] szbashsah [20:10:50] hehe [20:10:57] the great spaceship hunter [20:10:59] link the stream plz [20:11:11] https://youtu.be/wwMDvPCGeE0 [20:11:11] YouTube - NASA Live: Official Stream of NASA TV [20:11:12] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwMDvPCGeE0 [20:11:12] YouTube - NASA Live: Official Stream of NASA TV [20:11:21] finally [20:11:24] skin that beas [20:11:26] t [20:12:15] thanks [20:13:09] lol chunks of foil drift away [20:13:22] deadly space debris for somebody else [20:13:43] he could just stab the knife in the ship to hold it [20:14:01] I want the space knife [20:14:51] this is absurd [20:15:02] and after more than 4 hours it turns out the thign they are looking for is ont the other side. how funny that would be :9 [20:16:09] space kinfe secured [20:17:02] space scissors lol [20:17:06] space garden tools [20:17:21] yes definitely a garden tool [20:17:34] for space trees and stuff [20:17:53] did they have it on board or did they brought it with the latest resupply?
