  1. I'm all for the conventional format. Ordering posts out of chronological order is one of the most annoying things any websites do, especially social media ones. I can't tell you how many times I've gone to a post in this subforum, and the "first" reply starts out with "As stated above." I know I can switch it to chronological, but the fact that it has to be done every time is a bit irritating. So I guess I'd be fine with the current format if you can let us set "Sort By Date" as default.
  2. I've got a Thrustmaster T. Flight Hotas X Joystick. Works pretty well.
  3. Well... keyboards are like $2, so.. I wouldn't go with irrecoverably
  4. Nonsense, it's a legitimate question. I highly doubt there's a way to shut it off. It's not like it's advertised in game, I wasn't even aware of it until I joined the forums. I suppose you could always electrify your F12 key.
  5. I tried once, for giggles. Left 4 Dead was really interesting with a 900ms ping.
  6. Welcome! I always giggle a bit when non-native English speakers apologize for their grammar. You generally write English better than a large portion of native speakers. That's an incredible landing. Usually solar panels break on me when I look at them the wrong way.
  7. I've had a lot of problems with the fuel lines working correctly using the Twin Boar engines. They always seem to ignore the lines and drain evenly. Check to make sure you have crossfeed disabled on the decouplers, then maybe try using a different engine on the boosters. As far as the kerploding, I'm not sure. Can you share some screenshots, and possibly the craft file?
  8. I've been on satellite. It was terrible. Slow (They of course advertised blazing fast 1.5Mbps). Also metered to 512MB a day. At least it was a daily meter. I believe the meter was shut off between like 3 and 5 in the morning (or something like that). Shared between 4 people, that gets eaten up fast. Of course it wouldn't work when there were clouds in the sky either. Just to really rub salt in the wound, it cost twice as much as cable, and we had to buy their special equipment, which was a $200 modem. The only reason satellite ISPs exist is because they thrive on the desperate.
  9. Luckily the US is pretty big. I grew up in Wisconsin, but now live in Missouri. It's a little shy of a 1,000km drive to go visit home. So I'm in the same country, but society here is definitely different from where I was born. For example, they don't worship cheese here. It's weird.
  10. I'm in the US. Never been out of the country, but would love the chance to travel, and would likely move to Europe if the opportunity was right.
  11. I'm starting to think that my windowless work environment was done with the purpose of not giving me anything to chuck over-engineered POS equipment through. The Burroughs SmartSource is the source of 90% of my work related grievances. Not that any of you know what the [multiple deleted expletives] thing is, I'm sure.
  12. I see your 100km.. Pushing to de-orbit a 9,900 km x 4,900 km orbit... This was at least 30 trips, even after realizing I didn't need to be pushing the lander module and went to just pushing the CM.
  13. You'll get it. Every time you play, you'll learn something new. When I first got the game, I didn't even know map mode existed. My biggest accomplishment was managing to actually hit the Mun by point at it and going as fast as I could.
  14. Don't remember seeing any farms or livestock on Kerbin. Where do you think those snacks came from?
  15. Just using sudo worked just fine on the other machine. I guess I didn't realize there was a difference between actually being root and running the sudo command.
  16. I am, just not a very knowledgable one yet I didn't do it that way because the system wasn't showing a mysql user, and my account was in the mysql group. Also I hadn't had to do it on the other machine. I ran it anyway, worked fine, but still getting the same result when trying to start the mysql server with sudo systemctl start mysql. But on a whim I did sudo su, then systemctl start mysql and it worked. Not sure why that was different, but thank you for the help!
  17. I did a: chown correy -R /var/www/html Which succeeded. sudo systemctl start mysql Returns this: Job for mysql.service failed because the control process ended with error code. See "systemctl status mysql.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details Results of "systemctl status mysql.service: Results of journalctl -xe: Is there any other log that would help?
  18. Google is not being terribly helpful, and topic-specific forums (I won't name them, but they know who they are) tend to treat asking a question as a cardinal sin, so I thought I would try here since I know a lot of you are adept programmers and a handful are Linux buffs (as I'm aspiring to be one day). I'm starting a project for work that is essentially a SaaS replacement for an antiquated piece of software that is about to be retired. This will be running on a LAMP server with Ubuntu 16.04. I have a big learning curve ahead of me for the PHP/SQL interaction, but I don't see it being an issue. However, I really need to be able to easily work on it while at work and when I'm home. I don't want to be lugging a computer back and forth, so my solution was to put the project on a USB external HD. Following this guide I was easily able to move the MySql database over to the HD. I sshed into my computer at home after I got it working, and made the exact same changes (albeit without the drive plugged in). I just got home, plugged in the drive, and I cannot get MySql to start. I'm mounting the drive into /var/www/html. Apache is working fine with this arrangement. SQL database is in /var/www/html/DATAB/mysql Computer at work is running Ubuntu server 16.04. Computer at home is running Linux Mint 18.2. Any tips would be appreciated!
  19. I've had a few launches that tumbled and rolled so much I would just quit fighting it. Instead I'd just gun the throttle while the engines happened to be pointing in the right-ish direction, then kill it for the rest of the roll. Of course the best shuttle reentry I've had resulted in the thing tumbling for at least 20 km. Only one to ever actually land in one piece.
  20. I think OP wants us to petition the fine folks up in the ISS to use their 3D printer(s) to make us toys of Jeb and Val. Which would be cool, but honestly buying your own 3D printer and making one yourself would be a lot cheaper.
  21. Me too! Currently occupying Dres as well. I think I have around 20 Kerbals there at the moment. I don't get the hate. It might be more of a pain to get to than most of the other places, but I like it there. In stock I've been to the Mun, Minmus, Eve, Duna, and Ike, all manned. Eveonauts did not come home. Modded I've also landed on Moho. I don't think he ever made it home, pretty sure he's still orbiting Moho. Haven't played that save in awhile. Despite all my trips to Eve, I've never been to Gilly. Haven't been to Eeloo or Jool yet either.
  22. Awhile back, I started a Science save. I usually play Sandbox, not a fan of Career, but this was a nice in-between. Had probably 20 hours in it. It was cleverly named 'default' I needed to test something in sandbox, didn't have a testing save made, and quickly made one... you can guess what I named it. I'm too trigger-happy when it comes to prompt boxes. Bye-bye 20 hour gamesave.
  23. Best part is you don't have to choose. You buy it once, you get the Windows, Mac, and Linux versions!
