[13:42:26] WAAAAAAh [13:44:16] Mat2ch, it was said that dancers could not stand the color red, often becoming violent on seeing it [13:47:00] I might become violent if I don't get a launch time and date soon! [13:47:32] Mat2ch, can I pacify you by rocket footages? [13:56:15] Action: Mat2ch looks at his bank account [13:56:22] there are different ways to pacify me :D [13:57:43] Mat2ch, OF?

[18:03:50] there is also an other starlink on friday [18:13:54] it looks like it is full [18:27:57] valve closed [18:28:09] probably few minutes [18:28:46] we've been rather spoiled of late, haven't we [18:28:56] most of the last week has been one planned launch after another [18:30:39] nice geyser [18:31:17] but it is probbly a release valve [18:43:27] not venting again [18:50:23] hehe, what they would do if it doesnt pop? [18:57:21] just keep adding pressure until it does B) [18:57:24] Spacex trying to burst something again?

[19:20:43] Althego, finnish [19:21:04] isnt scary for me [19:23:56] Well, yes, but you speak martian >_> [19:24:26] hehe [19:29:10] Some are scared of Arabit. One boy talked to his dad (grandpa) on the phone in Arabin in an airplane and finished the call with "Inshallah". Somene reported him and they took him off the flight. [19:29:20] Arabic* [19:29:45] must have been a true karen [19:30:12] Was before launch. [19:40:57] what an uneventful pressure test [19:41:10] darsie, don't forget the terrifying Arabic numerals [19:41:24] Yeah. [19:41:44] They're less scary if you call them Indian numerals.

I can control an uncontrollable part of debris. that's odd [21:39:54] no probe core, no energy. but the gimbals and winglets react to keys [21:40:57] o_O [21:52:10] can't reproduce it in pure stock. weird, I wonder which mod is messing with it [22:07:04] oh, I remember installing FMRS recently (even though I usually don't care much about reusability). I think that's one of its (optional) features [22:16:09] the bug is that it's not optional. the game setting has no effect. ah well, I wonder if that warrant a bug report. I was going to remove it, anyway [22:17:11] no bug. me stupid. all good, as usual :) [22:28:19] so, i've made a hopper/crawler in the SPH, how do i build a rocket to get it to duna.. [22:30:05] move it over to the VAB and put it in a fairing on a rocket stick? [22:31:02] but the back end won't really fit cause its a twin engine [22:35:39] then turn it upside down ;) [22:37:38] oh i guess i can make that work, thx XD
