Covid, after all I did to avoid you. You win this round.
kerbiloid replied to Andrew the Astronaut's topic in The Lounge
Interesting, is there any study about correlation between the sterility of surroundings and the severity of symptoms, making people who are mad of sterile cleanliness suffer more than those who aren't. 1. The nonsterile immunity. 2. The habit of ignoring smell disturbances. -
Still isn't clicked.

One sentence you could say to annoy an entire fan base?
kerbiloid replied to Fr8monkey's topic in Forum Games!
Original names of electric charges were "vitreous" ("typical for glass", i.e. glass, wool, and so on) and "resinous" rather than "positive" and "negative". So, while the protons and the neutrons are made of glass and tied with wool, the electrons are made of amber and attached to them with rubber bands. -
(Keeping reading and thinking) *** "If you have to leave your place, but yet not finished, put the knife on the plate diagonally and cross it with the fork." Sounds wise. If someone is going to steal your cutlet, he will see that you'll first grab your fork and stick his hand to the table, then slice him with knife. *** ""If you have to visit a rest room, and say 'I'm sorry, I have to leave your for a minute'". Not clear. What if the table is long (or there is several of them)? Should you declamate it loudly or ask the neighbors to pass it down to the chain to let everyone know. *** "Unfold the napkin with one motion, and shake it in the end." Wise. There can be crumbs on it after the previous user, so you'll shake them off away from your trousers. *** "Large napkins are used on official events. Unfold it by half." Got it. Many people means one napkin for two persons at once. If you are alone, no need to stain the whole napkin. *** "If the dish must be eaten with hands, look at the event host, maybe he will tuck the napkin in his belt, or collar..." ... or use it to clean his fingers, taking the tasty pieces from the cauldron. *** "Use the napkin to blot your lips, not to wipe them". Not clear about blowing the nose. *** "When you have finished, fold the napkin to hide the used parts of it." Wise. Thus somebody else can reuse it after you. *** "If the napkins were ringed, stick the ring back on the used napkin." Too late. You should warn that it's not a souvenir. *** *** "You should sit straight, with hands bent in elbows were on par with forks and knives." The idea is clear, to be able to grab the knife and the fork at any second and counterattack, but the moral atmosphere looks a little fugitive. *** "Never put your elbows on the table." Not strange. To protect your sides with elbows if the neighbor grabs his knife or fork first. *** "If you are alrready served, wait until others get ready, before starting to eat". Wise. Who knows what they have put in the dish. First watch the careless ones if they keep feeling good. *** "Take only the objects which you can reach from your seat. Don't come across the table..." That's clear. By coming across the table, you place your center of mass into unstable position, and at the same time you open your back, so the neighbor can stab your kidney. "... or across the neighbor." Clear. Thus you open your soft belly. "Ask somebody to do that and thank him after." A little sneaky but right. You can either attack your neighbor in vulnerable pose, or demonstrate your good intentions by refraining from that. Diplomacy is important. """ "The dishes should be passing from left to right". Thus you are holding the heavy basin with your stronger right hand, and can quickly overturn on the neighbor it with the left hand. *** "Eat at a calm pace. Firstly, it's good for digestion. Secondly, you are showing to the event host that you enjoy his company and food". Thirdly, you can quickly stop eating on feeling bad, so the full dose of the potential poison will not be consumed. *** "While eating, keep your mouth closed and try to avoid making sounds". Because nothing is as nice as a company of people eating in absolute silence and listening for every rustle in the dark outside. *** "Don't blow at hot soup, wait till its cooling". The neighbor in front of you that you are mocking at him, and hurt you. *** "At all costs, don't speak with a food in your mouth. If you have something to add to the discussion, first swallow, then speak". Yes. Maybe someone would say these words for you, so somebody's plate will fly into his head instead of yours. *** "If you have to leave the event, explain to the company that you would be glad to stay with them, but the deals force you. You don't want to create the impression that you are tired of them." Indeed. If you did that, next time you should be twice as careful with food, and put on a double vest. *** "There are two ways to hold the tools. The European one is when you hold the knife and the fork in same hands all feast long. In the American way you can temporarily put your knife on the plate, with handle out and sharp edge inside." Clear. The Europe is small and overpopulated, so you should always keep your tools in your hands, otherwise a neighbor can steal one, and also to be always ready to fend off. The North American continent is bigger, so you have to throw the knife and arm with the fork. Also, when the knife is one-eged, it's wise to put it with blunt edge toward a neighbor, to quickly rotate it clockwise by 90° and point at him. *** "Always cut the food towards yourself." Yes, so the crumbs and pieces will stay in your table rather than go to somebody else. *** "When you have finished, put the fork and the knife parallel to each other, pointing with handles to four o'clock." So, when you lean with your left hand on the table to stand up, you can quickly grab both at once with your right hand and fend off. *** "Always thank the cook". That's obvious. Next time an unthanked cook can spit into your plate or do something worse, so it's just dangerous to leave him unthanked. *** The etiquette rules look mannered and sometimes weird, but thus we can see that they are invented by people who could scare any fugitive with their cruel inpredictability, and written with blood of those who didn't follow them.

Kerbal Space Program 2 Release into Early Access Feb 24th
kerbiloid replied to Intercept Games's topic in 2022
If the human players are so nervous, imagiine how nervous the Kerbals are. You will just play. And they have to fly. -
Details: https://ru-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Затопление_МКС?_x_tr_sl=ru&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=ru&_x_tr_pto=wapp Do we realise that the rings of Saturn are just 100..200 mln years old, and both Jupiterand Saturn probably were ringed and unringed from time to time in the past? 20 pieces give you a 10% discount and a floor lamp made of bear skull as a gift. P.S. Just on the axes and so on (certainly, of more then-future times). https://www.youtube.com/@primitivetechnology9550/videos https://anyflip.com/drysv/eycm/basic

This is a proper table setting. But where is the correct place to put this thing according to the etiquette? To the right? To the left? In a special glass? By which hand it should be used? The fork hand or the knife hand? *** Another question. Should a good-mannered person always open the beer bottle with a spoon or knife in the right hand, or is it equally appropriate to use a fork in the left one?

No, they say it when shocked. And once, not thrice. Why ё is pronounced as /yo/? -

kerbiloid replied to tater's topic in Science & Spaceflight
They were regularly flying above USSR till 1980s. (US ones, I mean) *** Can't understand, why are they sure that it's from China. My first thought was that it's a "cheap and angry" greeting from some peninsula to the East from it, to watch where to release it properly. -

Rain world moon/Dying laythe
kerbiloid replied to Strawberry's topic in Prelaunch KSP2 Suggestions & Development Discussion
Perpetual rain = fog layer of the atmosphere. Uranus, Neptune, maybe even Titan. -
Instead of numerous artifact sites: Intergalactic Spontaneous Space Nomads. They visit the Kerbin system from time to time, found a temporary camp, and drop or sell exotic artifacts. You should visit them to get any, before the camp gets turned into pumpkin, As they may troll the player, it's an implementation of the idea about trolls, too. P.S. As the Moon arcs are kinda bridges, maybe there are trolls below them? Then the arcs can play as trade posts. It's a normal part of plot in the tales. Say, the space nomads arrive via the arcs as portals.

totm dec 2019 Russian Launch and Mission Thread
kerbiloid replied to tater's topic in Science & Spaceflight
The M-17 development started (in 1967) after the U-2 had been shot down. It was an attempt to make a U-2 equivalent in sense of characteristics, but an interceptor. M-55 was its later recon version, ready in early 1990s, but also it could unlikely pass much farther than a front-line. By the time of their creation, it was a little late to fly over the anti-aircraft defence by plane. -
