[04:53:06] Mod9000 [04:57:55] Hello world！ [06:03:58] I just noticed that model trains are basically carbon dioxide [06:04:14] slowly replacing the air in my room until I can't breathe anymore and die [06:05:40] lol [06:05:48] no, more like nitrogen [06:06:17] because carbon dioxide is actively inhibits the oxygen carrying capacity of your blood [06:07:47] I wouldn't say that we know for sure that models don't do that [06:34:32] I'd recommend against inhaling model trains to find out [06:37:17] UmbralRaptop, between sanding, gluing and soldering, inhaling your work is a very real issue [06:45:27] eek [08:22:17] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptor' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [08:35:39] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o purpletarget|ktns' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [08:39:17] https://preview.redd.it/z5w4uck7w9n21.jpg?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=41598efa87a5f5c839b227770931f571bcafe3d2 [08:48:14] https://66.media.tumblr.com/0c688cd1dc1d4b9cbb8c4cf91f7b2786/tumblr_pmoeniK9Di1tn0y9y_540.jpg [09:28:08] Fluburtur: when will we get the next video? ;P [09:28:27] when I will have confirmation from my special guest [09:29:06] This calls for an announcement video :) [09:30:33] nah, I will just drop it unanounced [09:30:36] will be a surprise [09:38:53] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [09:43:45] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptor' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [09:50:26] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Judge_Dedd' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [13:06:51] damn it will be huge https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/186186471202357249/558273945749684264/DSC_0937.JPG [13:35:26] that's like 1m and a bit? [13:37:23] 1.2 [13:48:34] will it use two props? [13:56:36] yeah [14:13:26] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Judge_Dedd' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [14:34:32] next time someone tells me abotu chernobyl I will send that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andreev_Bay_nuclear_accident [14:36:39] scott https://youtu.be/pnJInGDH3Dc [15:03:50] "If a drop of water happened to fall on your head, you had to be decontaminated for a long time, since the drop contained tens of thousands of beta particles." [15:05:17] they were not nuclear scientist [15:05:25] mhm [15:07:33] An attempt to eliminate the leak was made by pouring in 20 sacks of flour, thus filling the cracks with dough. [15:07:43] unberlievable [15:07:49] unbelievable [15:08:28] "About 700,000 tonnes (770,000 tons)" <-- so which one is which? [15:08:41] ton is metric, I think. [15:08:56] or tonnes? [15:09:08] english is weird. [15:09:18] and this imperial stuff is even weirder [15:09:23] can't we kill it with fire? [15:09:33] Make Wikipedia Metric Again [15:13:33] im tempted to sign on wikipedia and change all the pages I read to metrci but I would probably be banned quickly [15:14:50] Yesterday I learnt about quarts. [15:14:53] And yes it's bad. [15:17:48] i could somewhat understand using imperial if the source material is imperial (like, historical british sources, or american sources) [15:18:12] but this is about a russian/soviet incident, and i very much doubt that the source material on those is imperial [15:19:28] tonne is metric [15:19:35] Ton is imperial [15:19:44] the worse is peoples that mix imperial in metric in the same text to talk about the same thing [15:19:51] like "3 inch wide and 5mm thick" [15:19:54] just no [15:20:35] Isn't imperial the international standard in some settings? E.g. altitude is usually feet, no? [15:20:55] for boats and aerial travel yeah [15:21:04] but metric is usually built in those systems as well [15:21:04] seems the use meters here (western Canada) for altitude... [15:21:19] Boats? [15:21:27] knots for speed and such [15:21:37] those are nautical miles, not imperial miles [15:21:38] but also feet... what I find weird is, they use MPH for ultralights rather that the usual knots [15:21:40] Didn't know that counted as "imperial" [15:21:49] I've always referred to that as "nautical" [15:22:01] they're almost definitely different things [15:22:01] scott [15:22:26] nautical miles kind of still make sense [15:22:37] ughs.. don't get me on about weights... is it a long or short ton/tonne... is it an imperial or metric ton... c.c; [15:22:40] imperial miles are pointless [15:22:44] there is two kinds of imperial now [15:22:55] only 2? [15:23:07] this, that.. .and who gives a flip? [15:23:26] i know like 10 completely different definitions of "mile" [15:23:38] so what does the scott say? ... about raptor engine [15:23:52] well for me.. 1 mile = 1.6km... don't ask me that in feet, inches, paces.. ect.. [15:24:05] yes i usually use 1.6 or even 1.5 for quick calc [15:24:50] there's a "german mile", which nobody really remembers anymore, which is 7.5km [15:25:04] its just a smidge over 1.6, doesn't really make much a difference unless you dealing with insane distances [15:25:05] lol [15:25:18] who remembers how many feet are in a mile? [15:25:28] 1200 give or take? [15:25:29] True story: Someone walked into a UK shop to buy some rope, and asked for X metres, or yards, whichever you prefer. The shopkeeper replied "It's 50p per fathom. How much do you want?" [15:25:35] "1 miles" being "2 hours at walking speed" [15:25:48] oh.. 5280.. -pokes google [15:26:05] anyway i dont bother remembering that [15:26:15] ;wa mile to km [15:26:30] oddly.. I know 1 fathom is 6feet... [15:26:41] there were some other tricks, where i could relatively easily convert some imperial speeds, but i forgot about them :) [15:26:45] <- nerd kid back in the day.. also dad had a boat [15:27:06] Althego, 2.5 cm -> 1 in [15:27:13] "fathom" is how wide you can spread your arms? [15:27:17] 12 in = 30 cm [15:27:39] 1" is 2.54cm exactly [15:27:40] (or the circumferance of an object you can grab) [15:27:56] I know that because my mechanics teacher was annoyed by imperial size for screws [15:28:09] i know the 2.54 figure, because WordPerfect used to have margins default to that value [15:28:31] what I don't get is... why Fahrenheit? not only they work on a different scale, its also shifted 32c off.... [15:28:43] i think one such trick was 1 m/s is about 200 feet per minute [15:29:04] the only moment farheneit is at like -40 [15:29:12] I forgot several words [15:29:20] and fqahrenheit is wrong too [15:29:35] since one ideea was that a human should be 100 deg [15:29:40] "farhenheit is more natural for humans" [15:29:41] however a human is around 98 [15:29:54] https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/degrees.png [15:30:08] yeah I would like to know about the melting point of butter because it is obviously the most important substance for life [15:30:11] not like, water [15:30:54] ... lost mars probe over this crap.. >.< [15:31:06] radians are dumb in a way. but we could measure in semicircles [15:31:07] "i have my special whisky, and when that freezes, that's 0°" [15:31:48] Althego: no, the weird part is how temperature is misappropriating "degree" for something non-periodic [15:32:10] whereas it's more something like "%" [15:32:20] % of what? [15:32:21] we are supposed to use radians in mechanics and stuff which rotates but degrees are more common [15:33:05] hehe ratio based units. dB and dBm :) [15:33:16] Althego: % as in "we have these two standardized measurement points, and indicate the position interpolated between those two" [15:33:41] We should measure heat in watts [15:33:52] someone asks you your weight, do you mess with them and say it in stones? [15:34:06] I measure weight in a logarithmic way [15:34:09] in joules maybe [15:34:22] Watt-hours [15:34:32] that is ok [15:34:56] "the temperature outside is 2 duracell AA batteries" [15:34:57] I measure time by the amount my cat spends sleeping [15:34:58] I measure my weight in m/s [15:35:25] hmm.. weight (M) and speed (m/s) = energy? [15:35:27] Eddi|zuHause, is that the ones with the blue stripe or without? [15:36:11] i don't think i've seen actual duracell batteries in like 10 years [15:36:30] also, i can never remember which size is which... [15:36:32] AA is R6? [15:36:40] How do you convert Duracell AA batteries to Ever Ready CR2? [15:36:41] i think i saw them in shops [15:37:10] ok, maybe i was shopping for batteries like twice in the past 10 years [15:39:32] "IEC-Code: LR6 ANSI-Code: 15A JIS-Code: UM3 Other designations: LR06, L06, R06, R6, MN1500, 4906, AA, Mignon, AM3, AM-3, MN1500, MX1500, NX1500, E91, L91, X91, EN91, 4006, 4106, 4206, 4706, 4906, 2006, 3006, UM3, UM-3, BA-58/U [15:39:57] had to shop for alarm remote batteries... stupid little 12v half sized AA... [15:40:56] once they drop a couple of volts, its like Russian roulette trying to get the locks to pop open.

[16:41:41] now the wings look so small [16:41:56] I still have to do a lot of work on the nose [16:42:02] and add the engine nacelles later [16:54:24] aesthetic pollution [17:00:28] hmm. spring sale on gog [17:36:09] you look like a kid at the first day of school holding a giant bag of candy [17:40:46] yeah kinda [17:41:00] exept I hold a giant 20% built rc plane [17:41:05] i mean like https://slowgerman.com/2015/08/04/sg-106-die-schultuete/ [17:43:21] (i'm not sure how that tradition translates into other countries) [17:43:37] i havent seen anything like it [17:51:57] so, according to this (probably poorly researched) article, the tradition of the giant bag of candy on the first day of school originated around saxony and can be traced back to at least 1810, and spread throughout germany in the 20th century [17:52:59] partially due to a childrens book from the 1850s [18:08:40] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/429717171002933269/558351278460108800/DSC_0950.JPG [19:32:18] just to be sure, that is some foam stuff, not solid wood, right? :p [19:34:06] why would it be wood lol [19:35:26] go mole go https://twitter.com/NASAInSight/status/1108789674321952768 [21:13:55] Any update on the console update? [21:16:59] We were supposes to get an update today for consoles [21:18:49] Looks like all you get is a ..... console-ation prize [21:36:13] Action: packbart sends a tank full of carbondioxide to Minmus [21:36:44] rare stuff, required for plant growth. Water and minerals can be found everywhere [23:27:20] packbart: I could mine ore on Minmus and turn it to liquidfuel and oxidizer. I guess they turn to CO2 when burned ;).
