[00:38:24] Last message repeated 1 time(s). [00:38:24] Are standard ATX-style cases compatible screw-wise with micriATX motherboards? I had an idea to use my older computers case and put the guts of this machine in it. [00:57:50] Wikipedia says it is....worried about the length of the power supply cables though [01:03:58] So basically I would have a Compaq Presario SR5000 case with Acer Aspire X1420G innards. [01:08:41] Hmmmm apparently not....too risky [03:39:38] Talk about CLOOOOOOSE, I already fit my new card in my case, but it's really close, on the tune of 1/10" [05:44:31] F-5 https://imgur.com/PpB6RLl [05:44:31] https://i.imgur.com/PpB6RLl.jpg [05:47:01] This is the first plane I've made where deploying the flaps downard like on a real aircraft, works [06:08:11] Ahhhhhh backup finished...

[17:06:52] ahoy [17:10:25] Finally! I suceeded in recovring the fuel tanks of my spaceplane thus making it fully reusable [17:11:00] \o [17:17:53] Did "Kerbal" an actual word yet...meaning something that looks crazy. [17:25:04] jap launch soon [17:25:04] Had an idea for the fastest lower atmospheric flight...using the pre-cooler as a fuselage. I think it has a built in radiator, so... [17:25:16] also landing confirmation was nice to finally get [17:28:07] UmbralRaptor: why you no post the pictures? [17:30:55] I got busy on a collaborative worldbuilding project [17:31:08] Hm... I could rescue this kerbal in a normal way, or in a completely insane way [17:31:47] Do it in the insane way [17:32:05] Woooo ran out of fuel at 1500m/s, need more fuel [17:32:05] the insane way is the kerbal way [17:32:24] Rokker: of imperial war museum, or udvar? [17:32:36] "ok, Joeely, we're going to fly past you at 300 m/s, you need to get out and EVA over to us, reaching us before we enter KErbin" [17:32:42] atmoshpere" [17:33:27] oren: eva reports at 60-odd km are also, silly. [17:33:35] UmbralRaptor: of the landings [17:33:41] but also museum [17:34:26] here is a picture of hayabusa 2 taken from a very spinny roverboi https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/69qtO4kK/IMG_20180922_132828.jpg [17:35:14] here is the view from rover 1A https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/XWSiyPaT/IMG_20180922_115916.jpg [17:35:41] and here is rover 1B's view https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/2Z5bWqQG/IMG_20180922_115912.jpg [17:36:22] UmbralRaptor: i wonder if that ground actually is brown or if color balance is just off cause of sunlight and crap [17:36:56] The albedo is like 0.05, or something.

[20:16:34] crash? [20:16:44] yeah I started repairing it after the last one [20:16:54] and that implied disasembling it a lot [20:36:30] my first ssto of this campaign is rather unorhodox [20:36:45] https://imgur.com/kHUHhgV uses Jet + Monoprop [20:36:45] https://i.imgur.com/kHUHhgV.png [20:39:30] hello [20:39:59] are you a mod for take 2 intractive [20:41:33] Wewikk: it's a bot [20:44:37] Action: UmbralRaptor pokes Wewikk with a SRB. I'm not a Take2 employee, but you may a well ask your question. [20:44:59] yes im looking for an actual tech sorport for another game {Game name here} im trying to help other peole and solve my problems came to you you guys since you are partnered with the people who made [insert said game name] [20:46:19] uh [20:46:44] I'd poke around for email addresses?

[20:58:11] Wewikk: anyway you should contact GTA admins via email and explain the situation, ideally in correct spelling and grammer like you would in a work email [20:58:19] They left. [20:58:24] bah [20:59:18] Also, punctuation and IRC client choice (webchat? seriously?) were more common for someone way younger. [20:59:29] 75% chance he was a squeaker [21:00:51] why would someone try to appeal a GTA 5 game ban on the KSP irc channel? [21:00:56] this makes no sense [21:01:10] Also, it's really cool how ASD is used as an excuse for not doing reasonable things, or being a donkey. [21:01:19] not cool at all [21:02:25] iplop: no idea. I was vaguely confused as to if that was a bot initially. [21:03:13] likely a 13 year old [21:08:16] unrelated: I know a few people who are indistinguishable from Markov bots on IRC [21:08:33] it'd be funny if one of them were to replace themselves with a bot for a time [21:09:53] Heh. Remember Kountdown? [21:11:06] vaguely [21:11:10] was that around 2016? [21:12:15] Yeah. I ask because that did Markov chain silliness. [21:12:41] was it set to learning mode while it was running? :x [21:15:28] I knew someone who made/ran an IRC assistant bot (running on a server he owned) [21:15:47] it was great until someone thought it'd be funny to have the bot search a bunch of illegal things [21:16:44] Sort of? I think it updated with chat logs every so often. [21:16:48] those google searches are now forever logged to his IP :/ [21:17:10] oops [21:29:54] was time I took photos of my room https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/454730972060188673/493171567124021259/DSC_9684.JPG [21:48:29] the workplace of a madman. :D [21:54:38] true [22:41:58] Sons and daughters of Kerbin: You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like. [22:44:23] Action: Scolar_Visari continues to ponder why the phys.org comments are still permitted exist despite the indisputable reality that the universe would be better off without them. [22:48:26] As a matter of fact . . . most comments sections could probably be nuked. [22:48:55] let's nuke the peoples that comment instead [22:49:38] Too much risk of collateral. Best to get them when they're grouped together. [22:49:58] Action: Scolar_Visari has played C&C: Generals, can confirm such a strategy will work as Nuke General. [22:50:59] Though if we use the Nuke General's neutron shell upgrade for the nuclear artillery, we can hijack their computers afterwards. [22:51:16] arstechnica comments haven't seemed too bad in the past (of course, it's not like I read those too often) [22:51:53] maybe any comment platform beyond a certain popularity threshold turns into a cesspool [22:52:23] Megaship Is mega https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/elite-dangerous/images/f/f4/Elite-Dangerous-Megaship-Scale-New-York.png [22:52:54] iplop: Hilariously, phys.org's comment section has a low population count. It seems to have passed the threshold and driven all but the worst sorts of characters away. [22:53:19] well that's a shame [22:53:33] It's like a singularity of pseudoscience and bad history rolled into one! [22:53:42] :x [22:53:51] flat earthers? [22:54:37] iplop: "Electric Universe" and their allies, among others. [22:54:45] I briefly had a flat earther coworker [22:54:51] Action: Scolar_Visari notes the EU crowd is not a monophyletic group. [22:54:55] I had to fire him in less than a month [22:55:18] I imagine an unwillingness to accept the reality of the Earth's oblate-spheroidness is a turn off. [22:55:38] nah, he was absolutely crazy [22:56:00] and took to threatening women coworkers regarding their conduct as women [22:56:30] I actually think the worst members of the phys.org mess aren't even EU, but those with the pretense of being better who hold some equally zany views (my favorite being that mankind has been 'domesticated' over thousands of years by a shadowy but benevolent cabal. [22:56:53] wow [22:56:55] iplop: That sounds like a termination with a security guard called in. [22:57:06] basically [22:58:13] iplop: There's another that won't read astrobiology articles beyond their titles, and others still who seem to think that there is a single geophysical definition of 'planet' and would like nothing more than to set fire to anyone who would disagree. Luckily, I'm inflammable. [22:58:19] he was absolutely nuts. He thought that a company we were doing work for was secretly building death lasers to use against americans [22:58:37] iplop: Well, if you were working on the Polyus satellite, I guess that may have been true? [22:59:01] the company worked on jet engines [22:59:02] Or, perhaps . . . Your career was the basis for the hit film Real Genuises [22:59:14] That's it, Jet powered lasers! [22:59:18] ^ [22:59:24] my thoughts [22:59:28] Action: Scolar_Visari adjusts tin foil head covering. [23:00:12] Anyways, flat earth people... I've run into a few in person [23:00:17] ...their numbers are growing [23:00:31] it's the new fad among 9/11 conspiracy nuts [23:00:43] I've yet to run into any, how do you avoid getting caught? [23:00:59] caught? [23:01:00] Action: Scolar_Visari ponders if iplop has played too much Carmageddon. [23:01:20] I should probably look up how many points a Flat Earther is worth. [23:01:28] if you want to run into crazy people: Live in northern florida [23:01:50] or florida in general [23:02:10] The internet has enough craziness as it is. [23:02:31] they're leaking from the internet [23:02:38] They were always here! [23:03:03] Before we had Randi debunking stuff on the internet, we had Houdini debunking stuff between shows! [23:03:13] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [23:04:27] anyways, I'm surprised you still follow phys.org comments if they're that nuts [23:04:30] sounds tiring [23:05:07] It's like watching a train wreck or Glengery Glenn Ross. You can't turn away. [23:05:15] lol [23:05:36] Action: Scolar_Visari ponders how many undiscovered Generation Ships are still left in Elite's current build. [23:09:17] I wanna discover one with people still aboard! [23:15:55] Wouldn't ones between stars be nigh impossible to find? [23:15:55] Action: Scolar_Visari also wants more Thargoid worshipping. [23:16:24] UmbralRaptor: The developers, on occasion, have hard to find beacons in systems relay cryptic clues to the locations of generation ships. [23:16:45] ah [23:17:11] Get within a few hundred light-seconds of one and they register as a contact. Mind you, finding the Voyager probes in game is even more difficult because they're still moving in real time plus a thousand years! [23:18:40] A few of the discovered generation ships have had their passengers survive (albeit having long departed), though most have met grisly ends. Regardless of their fate, players can download fully voiced audio logs from data points along their hull. [23:22:40] I made it, I made it, I fucking made it. I reorbited from Tylo! [23:22:57] Amazing [23:23:08] Action: TheKosmonaut stabs darsie with language rule citation [23:23:15] :) [23:23:22] ahh, that. [23:23:30] I dont think Ive ever been to tylo though. [23:24:54] Kosmonaut: Is that like getting stabbed by a platypus spur? [23:25:17] Scolar_Visari: yes but way less duckbills [23:26:30] Darsie should get an antidote applied. [23:28:32] Unfortunately, the local Pokemart's not open yet. [23:30:15] You could probably find an antidote in the tall grass around here somewhere, but then you'll need some protection. [23:31:06] I have this lander and the orbiter didn't have enough fuel/electricity: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot48.png So, before detaching the orbiter I tried toppling over the lander, get the surface sample, but I couldn't get the lander to take off. I tried climbing, but always fell down when I got to the gap: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot45.png But hey, with presistence I eventually got over the gap and reorbited :)) [23:31:06] ). [23:32:37] That's a Spark and a Dawn on the orbiter. [23:32:48] Action: Scolar_Visari imagines leaving the Kerbal behind so the lander has enough delta-v to make orbit. [23:33:03] No computer. No antenna. [23:34:32] Psht, ICBMs don't need ANTENNAE! [23:34:58] And no computer? Not problem! Early 20th Century inertial guidance for-the-win. [23:35:25] It may not be accurate enough to hit the country you're aiming for, but it works! [23:35:35] But ICBMs have antennae to cancel them, right? [23:35:59] Assuming they carry bombs. [23:36:25] Psht, why would you want to abort? [23:36:37] You never know. [23:36:50] Maybe peace negotiations :). [23:37:08] Action: Scolar_Visari notes an SLBM launched off a target shore would probably hit its intended target before you could physically enter in the abort code. [23:37:13] Maybe the launch was unintended. [23:37:30] Or unauthorized. [23:37:41] As in Dr. Strangelove. [23:38:11] https://imgur.com/i1ylbrT [23:38:11] https://i.imgur.com/i1ylbrT.jpg [23:38:27] Got thermonuclear or go home! [23:38:31] Minmus Mission is complete, time to head home [23:38:46] oren: I wouldn't do that. Kerbin might be on fire. [23:38:58] Damn, I tried to rotate that pic :). [23:39:08] Action: Scolar_Visari sounds the profanity alarm. [23:41:31] Action: Scolar_Visari ponders whether to use their Diamondback Explorer as a search and rescue ship or employ the inferior FSD range Krait. [23:42:12] BTW, Tylo isn't that hard. You need some dv, but nothing outrageous. Yeah, I used a Nerv and a Dawn. Eve was definitely harder. [23:42:55] Getting to Eve's not too hard, especially with liberal aerobraking. The problem is leaving. It's KSP's version of Hotel California minus the sweet guitar solo. [23:43:37] I brought drills and a refinery to refuel on Eve. And some major rocket engines. [23:44:14] Or are you talking about EVE? I suppose it is harder given that spreadsheet gameplay. [23:44:29] nope [23:46:39] Huh, so passenger missions affect trade *and* exploration rank. [23:46:50] Aerobraking is hard on Eve. Stuff explodes if you're not very careful. Back when I did it, physics warp reduced heating. Dunno how it is nowadays. [23:47:15] darsie: The trick is to do it in the upper atmosphere as far up as you can and multiple times. [23:47:42] You mean for arrival? I mean for landing. [23:47:47] And, if possible, use thinks like inflatable aeroshells, retractable parts, the Omnisiah's blessing. [23:48:09] https://imgur.com/ZXB3nqP [23:48:10] https://i.imgur.com/ZXB3nqP.jpg [23:48:14] Landing shouldn't be too much harder if you take it shallow like a real spacecraft outside those emergency ballistic reentries. [23:50:38] Also: Parachutes. [23:52:18] Oh, sweet, the Far God Cult is an actual player group! [23:53:23] Action: Scolar_Visari should set course for the Pleiades. [23:55:14] I, for one, welcome our Thargoid overlords. For they are the angels which will cast out the evil which infects human space and liberate the true believers. [23:57:46] Action: Scolar_Visari thinks it's pretty cool the developers gave the Far God Cult official recognition.
