  1. This melody makes you introspect. Its not just a song, its a gosh-danged therapist.
  2. KSP 3 is just going to be Crusading Kerbals 1 (ck1). You play as a character of Kerbin who has to get his space agency to the top by hook or crook. Steal scientists, destroy opponent's launchpads, ASAT strikes, bribing government officials, 'accidental' death of your rival, everything is allowed. You will even be able to create bloodlines when you colonize and become the God Emperor of Duna and Laythe. <I think it will be a decent spinoff, to be honest>
  3. I decided against watching the Desert triple header, believing it would be HAM-BOT-VER again, but YIKES! Glad the HALO worked and Romain survived, the guy's seat was lodged in between the barriers i think. Also, Perez missing the podium
  4. I have no issues with what that drunkard said. People talk krap about me all the time, I really don't care. What got me upset was the fact that my family and relatives shunned me at the drop of a hat for angering that guy. They took the side of a drunkard over me and did not have the courage or did not care enough for me to stand up for me. The marriage ceremony is on the 11th of December, and I have been invited. I will go, of course. It is my sister's marriage, missing it is not an option. But after wishing her a happy future I will walk to the kitchen and do whatever the caterer want me to do, even if it's cleaning the dirty dishes. Again, I will not have a single morsel of food that they offer me, I will buy some biscuits with what I earn from my time in the kitchen.
  5. I designed and tested a Munbase for a crew of 3. At the living requirements of 2 seats per crew, one crew member has to sleep in the science lab. I am not very happy with the placement of the giant solar panels as it clips into several important parts.. I also need to provide a docking node in the front to allow for further expansion of the base.
  6. Now that my old cats are no longer with me and the backyard is free feline real estate, a turf war had broken out. This guy won the exclusive ownership of my backyard and let me tell you, he's straight outta Wakanda. In our culture, cats are usually considered as inauspicious, but black cats are considered the Bogeyman. People don't mess with the black cat. They say that if you hurt a black cat, you will be cursed in life and never find salvation. People are also wary of guys who are 'accepted' by a black cat because they fear that they might catch bad luck. <I have been getting weird glances> This cat is absolutely terrifying after dusk. In the dark, it would come at you out of nowhere like Batman. Only his eyes and his excessively sharp teeth are visible and its absolutely frightening. I dont want the cat to stay, of course. Not after I lost so many other cats to human apathy. But this cat is not leaving.
  7. I am trying, but oddly the more I force myself to forget the harder the memories hit me.
  8. Today was an auspiscious day. My cousin sister got engaged to a guy, the guy belongs to a rich family and I was invited. So, a huge feast happens on engagement day usually and since I love eating (not binge eating, just trying different foods) I had fasted for a day before the engagement. So here I was, at the hotel where the engagement ceremony was being organized. The groom's family had spared no expenses. I congratulated the bride and the groom and their families and socialized a bit. The food was served buffet style, and I headed to the Buffet spot after a while. However I bumped into the groom's brother. He had heard about me, and started commenting on my cheapS blazer, my unemployment and the like. He was inebriated, so he was very loud. I responded in kind, mocking his excessive bling, and he took that personally. Soon I found myself shunned by the other guests, even my cousin's family, even my grandma for 'angering the family members of the groom'. It felt bad, man.. I decided I had enough and dumped my untouched food and blazer in the trash and headed off to the kitchen area. In traditional Indian wedding ceremonies, food is always prepared in an open air kitchen, and wood is used as fuel for earthen stoves. I rolled up my sleeve and requested the guy who looked to be in charge if I could get some work. I would do it even if its for free.. He looked at me oddly but then told me to haul wood blocks from the storage area to the different stoves. I did as he asked. 5 hours later, when the festivities were dying out I was tasked to clear ash from the stoves. Took about 2 hours for me and four other guys to clean them all. After it was over, I was given 500 Rs. (8 $, approx) for my troubles. All the guests had left, and sadly I could not find my blazer I went back home with an injured pride and hungry as heck. You see, every family has that one member that they trash talk behind his/her back. If you think that your family is not like that then congratulations, YOU are that unlucky chap who is the butt of all jokes when you are not around. Today I found out how much of a joke I was and how less I truly matter and how my family and relatives had no problems throwing me under the bus. Screw them. For them, I might be a running joke. But I am still RUNNING. And I am not going to stop till my hurt pride is satisfied.
  9. I constructed a space station thingie using the Konstruction mod for the first time. Those welding docking ports are pretty neat! I have installed the main habitation + science lab and Power/heat management truss. How should I expand it more?? I was thinking of adding another Truss which will act as 'shipyard' for assembling and maintaining Orbital Tugs and Duna spaceships. I am playing on 2.5x Kerbin so reusable orbital tugs are a must have if i dont want to go bankrupt. I could also add a couple of fuel tanks. Anything else that I should add?
  10. Old photos. They are of no use and looking at them only brings back hurtful memories. I can't bring myself to throw them away either.
  11. I made a small science helicopter for transporting Kerbals over short distances. The maximum speed was 218 km/hr. Not bad for a first attempt. The only problem is the tendency of the craft to roll.
  12. Yes, I know about the DynaSoar. That was on my mind when I designed this craft. But instead of X-20, I ended up with a ESA Hermes. Pterodactyl is a nice name, if a bit mouthful. Not bad, considering one of my choices was "Wingy Mama". Because it 'yeets' 3 kerbals to orbit? That's reasonable... But 'Pterodactyl' or a version of it would be the name of this craft. Thank you for the suggestions.
  13. I designed and flew a crewed spaceplane in a 2.5x Solar System. There's room for improvement, of course. It carries 3 kerbals to orbit and returns them safely, but it looks hideous. The spaceplane comes equipped with an abort Solid motor which doubles up as third stage if a mission abort is not required. Oddly, this is the first time I managed to circularize in orbit with only SRBs. Granted it was not perfect, 98x115 km when I wanted a 100x100 km orbit, but it was good enough. The Service Module at the back end of the spaceplane has 700 m/s of delta-v for orbital corrections. The Service Module is ditched upon re-entry. I have not thought of a name yet. For now it is just called 'Spaceplane Mk 2'... Any suggestions for an inspiring name?
  14. Straight, gay, pretzel... I am more concerned about the MC losing her eye.
  15. I for one, have gone weary of burying innocent kittens who had their whole life to live. It has been four kittens this year alone. Why those kittens? They were like 2 months and 4 months old. They were the picture of innocence, not even a shred of malice in their pure souls. So many horrible men and women live on this planet solely to spread pain and misery in order to advance themselves. Why can't those selfish cretins die? How is any of this, justice? This is the image I wanted to share merely 2 days before the incident but I decided not to, because of the poor image quality. But this is the only photo where I have the entire family of 9 cats was together. And now there are none. Just me and my solitude.
  16. Somethings snatched away from me three of the five kittens in quick succession over a week ago. I felt that no matter what I do, these cats keep dying, I should not cage them like this. So I took the surviving kittens and cats to a nearby forest. And thus, I lose yet another of the very few remaining anchors holding down my sanity. As of this moment, the 'somethings' responsible for the deaths have ceased to be a problem. Oddly, it has not made things better. I am still having nightmares of my kittens' bodies, my house feels like a graveyard even now. There is no sound, except the ticking of clocks. I can not go to sleep. Even now I half-expect them to jump at me from beneath the shrubs or from behind a flower pot. I would like to think that my Gods are testing me, but over the years, I have had very few moments when I could be truly happy. Anything and anyone who could contribute to my happiness was ruthlessly taken away from me. Thus it makes more sense to believe that the Gods above have abandoned me. When I pass on I will ask Them the reasons for my torment. But for now, I too have rejected Them.
  17. I finally managed to get a somewhat decent-ish picture of my kittens (even though the camera was a potato). They rarely stay still for long enough for me to take a picture, but I have found out that the optimum window to take a photo would be early morning and late afternoons when they have run out of their usual hyperactive energy. 5 kittens. The eldest of them (4 months old) is staring at your soul. She's the bodyguard/playmate/teacher for the rest of the kittens who are a month and a half old. All of them are strong and healthy, thanks to @tater's kindness and generosity.
  18. Like : " I misunderestimated you. I underestimated you because you look weak, but I should have underestimated you because you looked poor." Does that make sense? Idk..
  19. If 'Misunderestimate' were a word, what would it mean?
  20. I think we all agree that a deployable solar panel which produces more EC than the small deployable solar panels and the gigantic ones will be a good addition to the stock game. These circular ones could do the job, producing 6-10 EC/S.
  21. *Bill Gates: Hey I want to vaccinate people against diseases! Everyone: NO! He's going to microchip us! *Elon Musk: So, I want you to put this microchip in your brain. Everyone: WOAH! Revolutionary! Neuralink!
  22. Hello, I wish to remove the MKS mod from my game.But when I remove the MKS folder, the astronaut complex does not list the active kerbonauts, or allow me to hire any other kerbonauts. Is there a method to remove MKS without breaking my save file?
  23. @Errol If an experiment repeated several times yields the same result, then do you not think that it would be wiser to focus on other things? You are a mortal, surely you must have flaws. I believe that you should focus on self-improvement, be it the improvement of the body or the mind. That's just my humble opinion though.
