[02:00:44] <Scolar_Visari> Sons and daughters of Kerbin: GQ! CQ! All hands to action stations, prepare for high thrust!
[02:01:31] <Scolar_Visari> This is not a drill, repeat, this is not a drill. 
[02:01:43] <UmbralRaptop> [the needle moves to somewhere between 1 and 10 cm/s^2
[02:01:46] <UmbralRaptop> ]
[02:02:42] <Eddi|zuHause> how many G is that? :p
[02:03:19] <Eddi|zuHause> about 0.001-0.01?
[02:04:24] <UmbralRaptop> yeah
[02:04:40] <Scolar_Visari> All hands, brace. RCS warning in effect.
[02:04:51] <UmbralRaptop> (I mean, it would be amazing if an ion engine ever did it) 
[02:07:11] <Scolar_Visari> Maybe plasma/low end, not melt your engine fusion drive?
[02:07:48] <UmbralRaptop> hrm
[02:08:07] Action: Scolar_Visari ponders how high thrust electro-thermal water RCS could be).
[02:08:29] <Scolar_Visari> One thing Children of a Dead Earth does not seem to implement, at least in the stock version, are RCS quads.
[02:09:06] <Scolar_Visari> So your ships only turn with rather wasteful main engine high angle gimbal burns.
[02:10:10] <UmbralRaptop> eek
[02:10:50] <Scolar_Visari> That would make docking, ah, interesting, considering that any ship worth their salt are also nuclear powered.
[02:11:23] Action: Scolar_Visari ponders an out-of-control warship irradiating a docking repair vessel.
[02:15:31] <Scolar_Visari> There are mods, too, that add silly high performance propulsion systems ala The Expanse.
[02:16:34] <UmbralRaptop> That would presumably lead to some silly encounters? 
[02:17:35] <Scolar_Visari> I sort of like the present-day NTR performance. It makes it more a puzzle game than anything else.
[02:18:24] <Scolar_Visari> Like, "Hm, I could burn through 2,000 m/s of delta-v to dodge these missiles but give the enemy the space guage, or I could see if I can intercept them with my own missiles to give me the upper hand in delta-v."
[02:19:15] Action: Scolar_Visari also ponders why the game insists on gunnery CIWS as a primary means of defense instead of intercepting missiles as is the case in real life anti-missile defense.
[02:26:58] <UmbralRaptop> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[02:27:09] <UmbralRaptop> point defence lasers? 
[02:35:09] <darsie> I pointed my laser at ppl in the park who played loud music at midnight. With spread beam so they don't get harmed.
[02:35:29] <UmbralRaptop> uh
[02:35:57] <darsie> They reduced the volume. My flat mate has to work tomorrow.
[02:40:28] Action: darsie installed 1.7 today and landed on the Mun.
[02:41:24] <darsie> 3 separate flights, flyby, orbit, landing, to get all the contract rewards.
[02:41:58] <darsie> The new maneuver node tuning is great.
[02:42:13] <darsie> I wanted that a long tim.
[02:42:14] <darsie> e
[02:42:30] <Scolar_Visari> UmbralRaptop: Lasers sort of stink but the game does feature rather effective, Expanse style rapid fire coil guns.
[02:43:55] Action: Scolar_Visari still grumbles at the PDC's tendency to have their rights go through the entire hull of a ship, rather unlike most penetrator rounds in real life.
[02:47:32] <Scolar_Visari> Unless ships in The Expanse are armored with paper.
[02:55:00] Action: Scolar_Visari looks up videos of depleted uranium using penetrator tests with footage of the after-penetration effects, gets videos on, "lethal radioactivity" of DU instead.
[02:59:30] Action: Scolar_Visari also forgets we're in the future, 360 degree videos are a thing.
[03:01:27] <umaxtu> Scolar_Visari, are you talking about a mod or a game other than KSP?
[03:02:44] <Scolar_Visari> Children of a Dead Earth, a very, very, very hard sci-fi space combat game.
[03:03:11] <Scolar_Visari> Not only is there no FTL, there's also nothing higher performance propulsion wise than NTR and low-end plasma rockets.
[03:03:22] Action: UmbralRaptop really should play that at some point 
[03:04:32] Action: UmbralRaptop assumes that ships in The Expanse have muzzle velocities high enough to cause some relativistic effects 
[03:05:43] <Scolar_Visari> That doesn't seem to be the case and, if it were, I can imagine the rounds turning into an immutably deadly plasma after penetration.
[03:07:09] Action: Scolar_Visari notes the PDCs are only used at human spitting distance ranges.
[03:20:07] <UmbralRaptop> hrm
[03:22:27] Action: JVFoxy ehs... chews on code, frustrated with constant crashes
[03:23:04] <UmbralRaptop> crashes or crashes? 
[03:23:39] <JVFoxy> application crapping out..
[03:24:06] <JVFoxy> its installed on two different systems.. yet, keeps pulling some subscript error.
[03:24:45] <UmbralRaptop> ah. also, aaaaaaaaa 
[03:27:47] <JVFoxy> home PC (windows 7 64) and laptop (windows 10 32), this stupid little program.. it'll run ok, but, randomly when it has to transfer data to a port, it'll crash.. I can't debug it because thanks to MS Visual Studio being stupid
[04:28:04] <Eddi|zuHause> yeah steam... downloading game 37.0 of 38.5 MB... remaining time: 2 hours
[04:30:06] <Eddi|zuHause> 37.8/38.5 rmemaining: 9 days
[08:21:21] <Draconiator> Can anyone help out?  Trying to figure out what a digital camera cost new, but I can't find the model.  HP Photosmart 210 Digital camera.  no idea if it's because of the age or the rarity...

[09:57:30] <Mat2ch> Draconiator: are you sure about the name? Photosmart is a printer series, not camera afaik
[10:02:04] <Althego> hehe
[10:45:36] <Mat2ch> well, the image search reveals, they used Photosmart for cams, too
[10:46:30] <Mat2ch> But photosmart 210 seems to be a printer.
[10:46:43] <Mat2ch> And yes, it really looks like HP doesn't make any digital cameras anymore
[10:47:16] <Mat2ch> https://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-Photosmart-210-Digital-Camera/312564485595 well
[10:48:43] <Mat2ch> It's good for HP that there are no curse words allowed here. I have some very obscene in mind, when I think about their product naming department.
[10:49:03] <Mat2ch> Draconiator: the ebay link above shows: It's old.
[11:05:44] <sandbox> it was inevitable
[14:01:55] <Althego> haha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Q1MPrgea1M

[15:10:00] <Althego> lol the m87 supermassive black hole picture resulted in... black hole chan waifu memes :)
[15:13:55] <UmbralRaptop> It turns our that the intersection of horny, interested in science, and want to die is rather large 
[15:16:10] <Eddi|zuHause> did you really just question rule 34?
[15:17:34] <Althego> shouldnt have been surprised after bowser
