No matter how long I am away, when I come back I find one thing remains a constant: People believe their vision of the game is the way it should be, everybody should agree with them, and anybody who doesn't is just wrong and possibly stupid.

Still works.

People like to be upset.

I have granted no permissions, because the mods are released to the public domain or otherwise licensed openly and therefore my permission is not required nor could I give it because the assets are no longer mine. I want that to be clear. Carry on.

I don't have any interesting screenshots, but I did start a career after not touching the game in a very long time. I spent about an hour trying to burn directly into orbit before I remembered that's not how it's done.

Still works.

Using life support drained a lot of the fun out of the game for me. That is all.

'Tis but a farcical diversion.

Who paid for that computer?

What's it like moderating without Sal and RIC?

I've got Rocketman in his Tesla Roadster... either I'm in the car and gonna die from asphyxiation, or I'm down here and he's up there and I'm gonna die to zombies.

No way jack. I've played KSP.

It was called community guidelines or standards or some such thing. It was a couple years ago. Feel free to dig through my activity if you want to try and find it. You'll know it when you see it.

It's been tried. Something something herding cats.

To recap: There is no way to know whether or not someone quicksaved Quicksaving is not possible while driving over terrain So what prompted this complaint?

whiskey There in the sky, it's a ________!

Well, if I couldn't spend it any of it on myself... I'd drop a quarter of it, in cash of small bills, from a plane, over each of the following: Chicago, Atlanta, New York, and Los Angeles. No warning for the local authorities, just 250 million in fives and tens fluttering down from the sky. Should be fun to watch.

Completing "take a such-and-such reading at this altitude on kerbin" with a plane. I had been launching rockets at the area like missiles, hoping to cross the area at the right altitude.

Some things never change.

I'm afraid I don't have any idea what I did so long ago. I haven't had this or kerbal installed for a long while. Sorry.

Apparently these still work in 1.4.1 despite my valiant efforts to abandon them, in case anyone wanted to know.

For my two cents the difference between a fully recoverable SSTO space plane and a disposable rocket is time. Do I really feel like spending another 10-15 minutes landing at the KSC runway every time I want to send some crew or cargo up to orbit? Are the funds saved worth the extra hassle? For me the answer is usually no and no. A cheap disposable suits me better.

Disable your network adapter when KSP is running. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You are technically correct, sending a 2900lb car into orbit is "easy" as far as payloads are concerned, but that's not really the point. The Falcon Heavy launch is not significant for its test payload. They sent a wheel of cheese up in the Falcon 9, but that's not what made it special either. The point is that they now have a proven rocket that is more powerful than anything else currently available, at a fraction of the cost - if the SpaceX estimates are even relatively accurate. Of course, "easy" in rocket science is still really hard, too.
