[01:27:47] https://i.imgur.com/brsezAQ.mp4 [01:28:24] makes me wonder what kind of fun weather might add to ksp [02:03:34] I found a USB 3.5 floppy drive at a thrift store today, and yep I snapped it up. not every day you see those. I think they were made in a weird transition period between storage mediums. [02:24:53] Dracinator: that and old industrial systems that no one wants to upgrade [05:43:25] Cubesat deployment gifs always look like something out of sci-fi. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/2018/nasa-s-new-mini-satellite-will-study-milky-way-s-halo [05:45:29] i thought they already found the missing normal matter [05:51:26] "New versions of the cubesat deployment procedure will no longer use sound clips from the end of Scarface." - Totally NASA 2019 [05:57:11] Action: JCB offers paper clips then? [06:08:59] KrazyKrl: also less cocaine! [10:02:48] They still make USB 3.5" floppy drives. [10:06:39] There are still people with floppy disks out there [10:06:48] and old CNC machines that need one for the data [10:07:02] that's why it's so important to think ahead, when building a machine. [10:07:11] But only few companies do :/ [10:19:25] to think ahead how? by constructing inlets to standards to be? [10:19:45] or rather to make machines with lifetime of 5 years? :D [10:19:56] Look at your smartphone and tell me. :D [10:20:14] i'd rather look at this lathe at work which is from 2003 [10:20:38] Well, if designed right it could be retrofitted with a computer on a network. [10:21:09] But the software on that computer has to be kept maintained [10:21:13] and that's what I mean [10:21:34] do you know that they have to run a virus scanner on a regular base on the A380? [10:21:44] It's not about the operating system, that's unaffected. [10:22:17] But flightplans are loaded with an usb drive and the pilots use the same usb ports for charging their phone. [10:22:28] CNC one. it has notes on how to add a punch tape reade [10:22:29] *phones [10:22:31] * reader [10:22:34] :D [10:22:49] heh [10:24:00] well the protocol for transferring programs to this lathe is known and is used [10:24:36] well, think about all the production robots that are used these days... and about a computer worm that infects them all and makes them do funny things [10:24:42] or become skynet ;P [10:27:57] when infected they become usually a source of money loss, not skynet [10:32:20] well, the funny part is that nobody really cares about it, when they buy or sell a machine [10:32:41] in b2b there's no warranty.. [10:39:04] ...I sent a job application that was rejected immediately at a first company to a second one without changing anything other than the date, and they invited me for a job interview [10:42:21] Welcome to the automated world of job applications [10:51:27] well if they were able to automatically process that garbage PDF I sent that would be legitimately impressive [10:52:38] also it took the second company a full 20 days to process my application somehow [10:57:34] I really wonder how it is in other countries... because here they take everyone they can get [10:57:47] with my computer science degree I can do whatever I want [10:57:59] I could switch the company every second month and nobody would care [14:07:06] "If you deviate from a rule, it must be a flawless performance.

[16:00:05] ve2dmn, well he was a public employee so his workplace was likely the most backwards bureaucracy you could possibly imagine [16:25:18] Looking for the name of, well, I honestly don't even know if he was an rocket designer or merely an illustrator. [16:25:55] Responsible for some fascinating late 1950, early 1960 "concepts" that never went further than illustrations. [16:27:04] Spacecraft launching on rails up a ramp, a flying wing mars lander (that was before mariner), launch vehicle wrapped in recoverable tanks.

Now. :P [18:41:08] Action: APlayer gets out the punhammer [18:42:23] yes sir? atreides out. [18:46:11] im watching something called "Angry British Guy Vine Compilation" so I can learn how to speak brit [18:47:25] well well well [18:47:33] you should do some cad ;) [18:48:15] hmm scott [18:49:37] yeah, Scott talks about Scottland [18:49:54] scottland man ley [18:50:25] in one video he talked about something named strangely, like it would be a a scott man, who is named scott manley [18:53:27] he could have easily made a video scott free, but to each their own i guess. [18:53:46] Are you manley enough to speak scott? [18:56:42] I'm mainly manly but many men are not mainly mundane enough to masticate their mandibles. [19:07:18] was something he mentioned... ITAR... basically saying, you building a rocket outside the US? It better not have any US parts.. period. :\ [19:07:22] Fluburtur: confusingly, it often seems easier to understand people speaking en-FR than en-GB. [19:07:58] itar is just horrible [19:08:48] kind of news to me, though an article or two I came across dates from 2005-06 [19:09:10] luckily i dont have to deal with it anymore [19:09:53] I'm not overly surprised though... just the extent it went in some cases.... not even 'nuts and bolts'... [19:10:13] satellites were considered 'munitions'...? [19:12:26] There was a time when a few lines of Perl was considered a munition. >_> [19:12:31] hehe [19:12:44] proxmox is in perl [19:12:49] (and js) [19:13:04] pen is mightier than the sword... or in some cases.. typing [19:16:04] Project Perluto?

[19:25:43] because it's youtube [19:26:37] i just found 2 of this [19:27:09] Because it's more important to keep the viewer occupied with suggested videos that to keep track of what people upload immediately [19:55:28] GR being practical: https://arxiv.org/abs/1807.01318 [20:38:11] On the console version how do you switch between ships that are near each other in space? I cant figure out how and it makes docking so over complicated [23:25:42] o/ [23:28:56] \p
