[04:17:02] looks like a fuel pipe? [04:17:30] something like that. a KAS pipe. https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/142594-18-kerbal-attachment-system-kas-v15-incompatible-with-ksp-17/ [04:17:50] I thought they were [04:19:56] rover wheel suspensions react weird when the vessels are heavy [04:21:19] in some versions of KSP i had planes jumping up into the air when loading them [04:22:25] and also things attached to the ground via KAS had the tendency to simply explode for no reason [04:25:19] I’m an uncle. 😱😱😱 [04:58:56] Bwoop [06:26:11] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Deddly' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [06:28:00] O great robot overlord, I beseech thee to please bestow upon me the chanlog [06:28:06] thx [06:33:16] lol [06:54:56] Oh hey, I actually found a place that still distributes the 0.18.3 KSP demo [06:55:11] Yeah yeah, I know YOU have one, bot, but that's an older one [06:59:50] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o TheKosmonaut' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [07:06:15] There we go. Now, if anyone asks for the KSP demo, at least they get 0.18 instead of 0.15 [07:08:16] Oh right, they have a Mac one, too [09:57:16] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Deddly' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [10:03:02] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARIZnaMXTEU [10:03:04] two days... [10:03:15] I can't bear it. [10:05:01] Is that going to be the best stream? [10:06:01] i doubt it [10:06:05] spacex has its own stream [10:06:15] probably a fewseconds ahead of nasa [10:07:05] however there is no official link yet [10:07:16] So Nasa don't just stream Spacex's programme? [10:07:21] probably [10:07:27] that is why it would lag behind [10:07:33] Ah I see [10:08:01] SpaceX announces the stream links just a few hours [10:08:04] before launch [10:08:06] usually [10:08:20] sometimes it is there long before [10:08:24] but it is hidden in yt [10:08:31] and you have to look for it in their twitter [10:08:51] It's called "Twitter feed" :P [10:08:59] whatever [10:09:09] same way as you never send an sms [10:09:13] They don't own their own twitter ;P [10:09:35] because short message service, so you use the service not send it [10:09:57] (sorry, I just hate it when people say it that way and make it too easy. "Look on my facebook". It's called "facebook page", you don't have your own facebook!) [10:09:58] You have to look for their twits [10:10:24] Mat2ch, my internet isn't working! [10:11:16] Deddly: "twits" is very close to chat rule infringement ;P [10:11:24] Deddly: and don't push it! :D [10:11:28] hehe you just need to change one chat [10:11:30] char [10:11:37] Twit is a legitimate English word [10:12:12] and the japanese long tailed tit is a cute bird :) [10:12:44] Yes and they have a nice mushroom, too [10:17:45] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgNDao7m41M [10:18:06] That blew my mind, like most of his other videos [10:25:35] it's the title of a children's book https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Twits [10:27:41] geez [10:41:47] If Black Holes stop time, how can they grow bigger over time? ;P [10:46:08] I've read it as a child [10:46:21] (The Twits) [10:46:48] the point doesn't grow. its SOI does [10:46:49] It's a British thing [10:49:52] often to be found in The Register's headlines [10:50:27] unless the article is about boffins and their new enlightments in boffinry [13:04:24] Does the bot get confused if I talk about the demoman in TF2? [13:04:29] good [13:34:54] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Judge_Dedd' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [13:39:36] Althego: going back to words and meanings, I never thought about how Itzehoe must sound to an english speaker... ;) [13:44:34] That looks like a place name or something [13:46:51] Mat2ch: with those names i'm never sure how they're actually spoken [13:47:05] like, Soest vs. Moers [13:56:11] UmbralRaptor: it is. It's a small city north of Hamburg [13:56:32] ah [13:58:26] Eddi|zuHause: well, in this case you spell the oe as a short "o" [13:58:58] Should be similiar to Soest [14:21:13] oe is like the Scandinavian Ø/Ö, isn't it? [14:22:11] (Pronounced like the English "er" [14:22:14] ) [14:22:30] Mat2ch: lol [14:30:10] Judge_Dedd: not in this case [14:40:21] Judge_Dedd: that's where the problem is. in standard german, "oe" is a standin for "ö" [14:40:48] Judge_Dedd: but in these place names, they often use the dutch phonetics, where "oe" is just "o" [14:41:01] Ah [14:41:02] Judge_Dedd: and you never know which one they happen to use [14:42:45] it's not as bad as "Worcester", but a thing to be aware of :) [14:47:22] Haha, true :) [15:15:07] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [16:34:47] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Judge_Dedd' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [16:59:45] lol i like the red letters [16:59:59] bold red letters. no douvbt without any effect [17:00:27] https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1217742268393607168 spaceship tank construction, circa 2020, colorized [18:00:43] looks like one of those 50's scifi pulp pictures, needs more pink [18:00:52] or purple [18:01:48] somehow it has a strange fell to it. i cant really say what. maybe looks like props, or painting [18:06:03] what's with all the givaway spam in the replies? [18:06:20] some recurring elon joke [18:06:47] probably started by elon [18:07:05] i didnt lok into it, but it has been going for a year at least [18:07:27] i'm not usually around these parts of the internet, but looks like a scam to me... [18:08:05] because it is not true [18:08:56] hehe it turns out it is a real scam [18:08:57] https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/fake-elon-musk-bitcoin-scam [18:38:55] Yes, people have been doing that for ages [18:39:08] "Send me money, and I'll send you more back!" [18:39:42] and it works [18:40:05] i remember long time ago some scammers were doing that in eve too [18:40:05] I got so fed up with spam I deleted my Twitter account [18:40:31] while mark hamill deleted his facevook account and kept his twitter [18:41:03] That was for a different reason and I'd love to comment on it but I think that starts getting out of bounds here [18:41:25] meanwhile i never had facebook or twitter account [18:41:55] I never had Facebook and I only got Twitter because Elon must was saying interesting things that I couldn't read without having an account [18:42:13] wait a sec, that plate on the top, it is so ksp style https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A45PhO2WjMw [18:42:50] i knew that the orange tank in the game was from the shuttle [18:42:52] Or, KSP could have used that image as reference for the art style [18:43:01] bu i thought that plate waas just made up [18:44:14] Most, if not all, of KSP parts have a real-life counterpart, but that's the first time I've seen that one [18:45:59] that image must be recent since it is about the sls, but i guess the part was around for a while before that [18:46:35] similar surprise was that the surface scanner that opens the radar antenna on the two sides was from the venera probes [18:46:41] at least from some [18:47:12] i thought about that as an other game only part [18:49:22] the small hexagonal was obviouslt from curiosity [18:52:07] RT-5 and 10 aren't based on anything, right? [18:53:08] hrm. tricoupler also? [18:58:45] I think that the tricoupler and RT-10 are leftover parts from the really early days where Harvester was just making most of the parts up to look like bits of scrap [18:59:20] yeah [18:59:36] So I expect the earliest parts are where we are most likely to find no real-life analogue [19:00:55] Back in the good old days when the game was going to be limited to sounding rockets and Harvester liked it how joints were wobbly :D [19:01:09] hehe [19:01:24] Source: The KSP thread in the Orbiter forums [19:03:56] but actually i think somewobliness should be there [19:04:04] otherwise you are just flying a brick [19:45:51] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Mostly_Deddly' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [19:51:50] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o raptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [19:52:17] Althego: looks like NASA discovered TweakScale and just resized the 2.5m Rockomax adapter [19:52:27] hehehe [19:52:43] Althego, I think a slight wobbliness is probably realistic, but flying rockets with a keyboard isn't very realistic, either, and as long as SAS is as limited as it is, I think wobbliness just makes the game unnecessarily difficult sometimes [19:53:01] You'd think that with tweakscale, someone would have just made a seadragon already [19:53:11] (IRL. I'm sure it exists in KSP) [19:53:39] Mostly_Deddly: I'm still vaguely bitter that stock doesn't have user tunable PIDs [19:53:42] Oh right, real life. I was about to post a bunch of links [19:54:32] But if you're adding Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, why not other diseases as well? ;) [19:56:40] Action: raptop slaps Mostly_Deddly around with a mechanical jeb [19:57:01] Hehe [19:57:35] hehe [19:57:43] Wow that sends me way back. I used to go to an IRC channel back in the '90s where a bot would slap you around with a kipper [19:57:51] i am kind of partial to state space control [19:58:19] Action: raptop manually types the objects for trout-slap style things >_>;; [19:58:45] maybe state feedback or sliding mode [19:59:52] hm [20:04:11] !choose have Val do a low munar flyby|probe to Minmus|wait for Jeb to return|design a heavier launcher [20:04:21] oh, right. That bot's in another channel [20:05:46] the princess is in another castle [20:06:36] Right, I'll alert Bowser that this one is a trap [20:06:54] raptop, according to decisionbot, no to Low munar flyby, DO send a probe to Minmus, not wait for Jeb to return, and design a heavier launcher, while you still can. [20:07:26] heh [20:07:47] Oh wait, it has multiple choices, I didn't need to do them one by one [20:08:30] raptop, "Wait for Jeb to return by a nose." [20:09:02] https://decisionbot.org/#vs [20:10:39] Also, interesting fact, Mr Bean beats Stallone. [20:10:56] how, in what contest? [20:11:30] Althego, Decisionbot in "vs mode", Stallone vs Mr Bean: Fight [20:11:48] mr bean is fictional, stallone exists [20:12:00] I've seen Mr Bean on TV [20:12:27] Action: raptop puts in Reimu and Marisa [20:12:29] "Reimu. That one was too easy." [20:12:39] hehe [20:13:24] raptop vs Althego: "Raptop wins again. Surely there must be a more worthy challenger." [20:13:38] hehe [20:13:52] ow [20:14:44] Incidentally, Reimu beats Okuu but not Flan [20:14:53] Action: raptop ignores that this is random [20:15:00] hehe [20:15:21] It actually has a serious mode, too [20:16:00] You can put in pros and cons and give each aspect a weight as to how important it is, and it will calculate a decision based on that [20:53:10] Test [20:53:21] Bwoop [20:53:39] Having trouble connecting [20:53:57] Action: raptop plugs a cat-7 cable into transit [20:54:13] 👀 [20:54:28] humans have RJ-45 jacks in the back of their necks, right?

[20:58:55] umaxtu: my replacement one hasn't [20:59:32] The one I actually bought back in 2016 did so in mid 2017. The one Google sent me has somehow survived [21:01:36] my entire family's replacements did it also [21:02:15] oh no an event horizon episode [21:02:25] it can wait until tomorrow [21:03:40] Action: raptop is apparently lucky or something [21:03:54] Or something, given the phone's performance issues [21:05:49] There was one early stylus based phone that I was looking at around the same time the iPhone came out [21:06:18] Unsure of the brand, but it had very good battery life [21:07:10] May have been a crackbrrry or a Palm [21:08:34] Perhaps a Motorola [21:08:48] If I saw it I’d recognise it [21:14:42] The motorola A780 maybe [21:18:28] Nokia N900 was nice but had its flaws, too. pocket linux computer [22:56:20] One way ticket to Duna: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot104.png [22:57:24] Pilots only.
