i have this problem, but since i read very quickly and devour reading materials voraciously, i have done something that far exceeds browsing a used book store. i've gone to packages with 200+ recommended sci-fi books and downloaded them all onto my iPad. i carry around with me a digital library that is expanding to nearly a gigabyte and a half.

for rockets, i use alchemy processes. for planes, i use alchemy elements. the rocket that i find that is my best design i name the philosopher's stone. proceeding those, i end up just making versions. on sillier, more experimental days, i name them after memes.

Path of Exile is always fun and great way to make friends. There's Warframe, which is free and FPS related.

it was beautiful where i was, almost like raining magic. it was like this. one of the better meteor showers of the year. not as cool as watching the aurora borealis, though.

they held a neat AMA on reddit about 9 months ago that answers a lot of these questions. edit: oops, didn't notice this had 29 pages, disregard!

As the title states, I've been watching Mr. Robot and absolutely love the show. For anyone who hasn't heard of the show yet, here is an IMDB summary: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4158110/ It's extremely entertaining and accurate when it comes to the underground hacking world (from my own experience, as well as other anecdotes). Are there any shows any of you watching that you really enjoy?

it's a thing.

ogod.

This kind of feels like a question similar to a pre-game of Age of Empires or Civilization V. If I could land anywhere on Earth with data already in store, then... I'm not sure. It all really depends on what time period? Is this when Pangaea is still a thing? If I land somewhere, will a T-Rex eat half my ship? Will I end up plopping down in North America during the Mesopotamian era? Naturally if there's dinos down there then I'd nope right off the planet. I've seen enough Jurassic Park movies to figure I'd be helpless. If we are talking about no humans whatsoever, and the entire land is untouched... I don't know where I would go. Probably China, because the ecosystem and the terrain is so breathtakingly beautiful and unique to the rest of the world (in my humble opinion).

I'm confused by the word "dying". Could it be that energy production that happened 2 billion years ago was from huge stars with giant fusion capacity that lasted less than a couple billion years and that now the majority of stars that exist today are simple boring main-sequence stars like our sun which might burn hydrogen for 8 billion years or so? For some reason, I feel dying is such a sentient being concept. It's more like "changing", possibly? Not that we have the reaches or technology to really expand on it yet.

Whenever I think of space food, I always think of that lobster that was left in the fridge too long in Cowboy Bebop.

Even if it would be impractical, I would love to have a base on Callisto, or at least an orbiting station by Callisto. It's such a beautiful moon.

Is it wrong that I found it funny that there would possibly two records of timekeeping, similar to the metric and US measuring systems? A lot of parts of the world handle measurements of everything differently than the US. There are parts of the country that have different methods of record keeping according to their own belief system, and possibly mathematical perspective. And we're all on the same planet. As much as a galatic timekeeping would be fun, realistically I would have to agree with YNM that relativity would play a big part. Something closer to a black hole would generate a higher relativity, leaving the measure of a year possibly being 7 years somewhere else. Logically deriving, I would say any kind of travel among any solar systems would be like visiting any country on Earth - where you change timezones depending on your location and the placement of the sun, how you accept how they track their own record keeping but you can translate it to your own timekeeping of choice. Yet instead of following the sun we would be following distance, lightyears, and relativity and use a method of translation. I'm not a physicist though, so I might not have the best scientific background to provide the more scientifically accurate perspective.

I play Age of Empires every once in a while, some Elite: Dangerous, though specifically I've been into a lot of games with a weird storyline to them. I finished up Catherine and absolutely loved it for its particularly weird genre mixing and finishing up Life is Strange, which is beautiful.

Hmm, what did I do today? I went on a nice little vacation to visit the solar system that had three black holes, and all sorts of crazy ..... Took screen shots and slapped some awesome captions - I felt like I was visiting some kind of spatial Grand Canyon.

Have you tried the recommended textbooks that Coursera and the online MIT physics classes offer? They're easy to obtain via Mediafire/ebooks/download and they assign you chapters to read to catch up with their coursework. It's no legitimate college class but it's an effective method educating yourself on topics you don't intend spending a lot of money learning.

After much thought, this page covers my Windows 10 review:

I'm also interested. :3

They might be doing this.

Oh? Where can I find these places? Is there a sticky that I missed to pick these up? If there's a group, I can extend this offer and create a Skype group where we can all get to know each other, post crazy cool links, and talk about KSP among other things. I'd air it out, and just make a nice real-time chat for everyone. Anyone can add at will, if they can.

Long time lurker of the forums and finally decided to register to create this thread. I've noticed a lot of like minded people on this forum, enough that I got an idea. I was going to suggest creating a Skype group where a lot of us can talk and get to know one another in real time. I figure since we're all fans of KSP here we all probably enjoy some kind of space games, physics, science, space, etc. We could make a lot of friends with each other that way. I am in my mid 20s, just graduated from University, and been looking for people who have just the same amount of passion for these kind of games (or programming in general). It'd be nice if there were people of all the same age group (someone could make a Skype chat that's for high schoolers, college goers, etc). I don't know if this will have a good reception, but I just wanted to throw that out there for any of you that could be interested. If you're interested, please send me a message of your Skype name, and we can get you added!
