    It's a Add-On, I don't recall exactly what. Do you have Kerbalism installed? I have a (faint) memory of reading something like that there.

    @ManeTI, I think I stomped on another bug. Usually, when I post successive replies, they are merged into one. But my last reply (before this, obviously) on this forum were not merged as intended. Perhaps a new bug or a collateral effect from the previous one (or even from the fix applied)?

    Too late. For 5 years!!! :-) https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/search/&q=nobody&type=core_members EDIT: Ouch.. I intended to have this post merged into the previous... Perhaps a bug?

    Granted. So they are asking for such permission. You are not obliged to grant them, but they are not obliged to service you neither. Yes, once one negate such permission, their data should be promptly and unrecoverably deleted. No arguing about that. What's plain wrong is demanding the company to service you once you deny them the rights they want to your personal data. Undestand that I don't denying the abuse they promoted in the past. I'm not defending the abuse. I'm defending a business model where companies receive proper return for services they provide - you don't agree with my fee? Fine. Really. But then I don't have to service you. Simple. Problem is: if the courts don't hold the claims? Who will pay for the costs? If you drive minor companies away, and only major companies can withhold the extra financial burden of dealing with Europeans, what do you think it will happens? Yeah, only major companies will deal with Europeans - imposing their fees without fearing competition from the small guy. Their money, their funeral.

    It's a choice, and it's yours to make. However, things start to look bad when others make the choices for you. A&E (History Channel et all) is also blocking EU now. :-( I wonder how they are handling Blazer, but since UK is jumping ship from EU in 9 months, I think they will just wait. It's not about privacy - nobody on his right mind would be against this. It's about cost. EU is forcing the rest of the World to pay for their party! Facebook and Google are already being sued. They broke the GDPR? No. They are following the GDPR to the letter - but some EU citizens are complaining about "forced consent" - as these companies had the duty to provide them content without a proper return. If companies can't make money from a "customer", they don't have any interest on doing business with such "customer" at all. It's plain simple, is how the economics on every country nowadays work. But somehow, some people are entitling themselves the right to be served by private companies for free. "There's no free lunch". Someone has to pay for the party.

    Sounds more as a Changing Management drama to me. Do you know the "Not Invented Here" Syndrome? There's something alike at Management level. When a company acquires another, you can rest assured that most of the previous management plans and ideas will be put into the freezer until the new management's ones fails.

    About this, deleting content and deleting personal information are two different matters. GDPR demands deleting personal info, not copyrightable data. If one wants this copyrighted content deleted, he needs to resort to another law and, so, this is another discussion. I really appreciate your sympathy. However, the real risk is the other way around. I'm not alone: a lot of people around the Globe are ANGRY. Really ANGRY. Assuming all this stuff is not hysteria promoted by "Uninformed people jumping into unfounded conclusions due misguided information" (and believe me, I wish to be such a fool right now - I have teenage's time friends and relatives on EU!), we will not just quit doing business on our own country due some foreign countries claiming jurisdiction over our computer's data. I will not pay for a EU representative so any European can make me work late hours for free by answering privacy claims due servers intended to be used by local customers. I will pay instead for my ISP to just shield me from the whole IP Range Blocks serving EU and EEA directly from the Tier 1 Network. IP Addresses can be "Personal Data", but IP Range Blocks are not - these last ones we can use for sure. And since most of the free Internet out of Europe are not intended to service Europeans, the aftermath is clear: Europe can be ghosted from the most part of the free Internet.

    There were these in game? Nice!

    We need the logs (both KSP.log and Player.log from Unity) in order to get an idea about what's happening. But, on a wild guess, I think you just blew up some memory restriction. Try to delete some less used mods to see what happens.

    Because he wants to buy them?

    "I think I got this" V 2.0. ;-) I just got a "Field required" error while posting in another thread. Had to copy, reload page, paste a couple times before I finally managed to post the thing. (didn't had the initiative to make a screenshot, I was focused on successfully posting what I want and just remembered this thread after) I think you have a CDN and/or cache problem - some resources are from the times the site didn't had the WAF (or some other feature). About my previous issue, the lack of some field that determines the post age were probably defaulted to 0, and obviously, the threshold that prevent abusing old posts kicked in.

    It appears to be a Module conflict. When we weld parts, we essentially do: Take all the meshes and "glue" them together (including collisions') Sum all the masses Choose what part will propagate the physical limits (heat, stress, etc) Merge all the Modules data Some modules doesn't like to be repeated on the same part. For example (and this is a example, I didn't tried that), welding more than a docking port can be a problem if the Docking Module (c# code) didn't was coded to handle multiple docks on the same part. What were the parts you used to weld the new part?

    Great. Just great. My Intruder Detection System is also GDPR uncompliant. "Fellow intruder, please authorize this site to use Personal Data (IP Address) for preventing you from attacking this site." I'm unsure if even the GeoBlock I applied on my customers site is legal under this aspect. (And, as usual, they except themselves - see the underlined text) From the GDPR (all highlights are mine)
  14. Lisias
    From the GDPR itself: So, yeah. They knew what they were doing and took explicit measures to prevent locking themselves out. "Death and taxes..." :-)
  15. Lisias
    They won't. And this is terribly, terribly bad. Once you can't tell the bad apples from the good ones, all that remains to be done is to handle all of them as bad.
  16. Lisias
    My understanding is no. GDPR grants the right to be forgotten, not the right to withdraw content - mainly when such content was licensed to third parties. What I understand is that by deleting all data that would univocally link the post to a persona (even an IP, by Christ's sake), GDPR is good.

    Poisonous Tree Doctrine. If the evidence is obtained by unlawful means, it's summarily excluded from the trial. Under Civil Law, it's possible to grant exceptions and privileges for State Agencies, shielding them from Regulations. You don't have to mention such exceptions and privileges on every law that would affect them. EXACTLY. So, my firewall is now a liability, and I need to allocate resources for a potential sue, otherwise I risk being put out or business if anyone on Europe challenges me a about this. It's about the money. It's always about the money. Someone has to pay for the party. It's cheaper and safer to just block the whole Continent. At the very least, I reduce my liability to the Europeans that already had accessed my servers in the past. On Risk Management, we call this "reducing the exposing area" (or something like that, I don't know the exact term in EN) EDIT: It's Fruits of Poisonous Tree. :-) And it's being applied on EU too.

    Who decides what's legitimate interests? The alleged infractor have the right to demand proof of the misbehavior? How I would provide such proof if I can't log his accesses without previous consent? Worst. I will need to disclose my firewall rules to proof I don't have his "personal information" on my servers?

    6/10 - Belters are not considered real humans I'm watching Kraftwerk. What else I would be? https://youtu.be/gw4sZmeFoa8

    I think I got this. Now and then (each N posts? Each N hours?) I'm challenged by a Captcha. The post I was posting at the time becomes "tainted", and cannot be edited even by unsigning and signing again. Until I post something again, when everything is normal again. I will try to edit the last victim, and then I will be back with the results. EDIT: Nope. The "victim" is still uneditable. Perhaps a timeout? I will try again in a hour. EDIT2: Nope. After one hour since the post, the "victim" is still uneditable. My current guess is that someone else needs to post there to "untaint" it. EDIT3: Nope. It's several hours since my last action here, that thread already had some new posts, and the "victim" is still tainted. My current guess is that I don't have any more guesses. :-P

    And on the post, an interesting conclusion: However... Caution. This guy is ruled by Common Law. Things are very different for people like me and Sarbian (and perhaps you? It's implicit that English is not your mother's language), we are ruled by Civil Law. On Common Law, a Contract between two private parties are law. Unless a felony or something like that is being committed, the Contract have precedence over Law. "Everything is allowed, as long is not explicitly forbidden". On Civil Law, a Contract between two private parties are subjected to law. A Contract can be invalidated if any part of it contradicts some obscure law. "Everything is allowed, as long it's previously granted by Law". On my country, I am not allowed to wave or short my lunch time. Even by willingly signing a contract where I have one hour for lunch, and then I can go home one hour earlier (or arrive one hour later), such contract can be contested as there's some law around here stating that I have the right of having two hours for lunch. Worse, I don't even need to go to the court myself, my Union can "do it for me, besides me". I would love to. But my failure would out my customers under liability - and someone in Europe goes for his SAS =P for this, they will go for mine later. :-) I would love to. But my failure on complying to GDPR would put my customers under liability - and if someone in Europe goes for their SAS =P due this, they will go for mine later. :-)

    Thank you very much. I'll need some time to digest all that legalese. In the mean time, I'm afraid that I have to shutdown some services, and plain block the whole Europe from others until I have all this thing figured out correctly. I am paid to keep scammers and intruders from my customer's servers - but being the IP "Personal Information", I'm currently living a Kafkaesque situation: in order to shield my clients from an European intruder, I must first ask for permission from the freaking... guy... to record his "personal information" on my server's firewalls. #facePalm Or blacklist the whole shebang from Europe at once, as this way I don't take the risk of being sued by firewalling a script kiddie that lives there.
  23. Lisias
    Hell. I just realized that my mailboxes and SMTP servers are huge GDPR uncomplying databases. =/ And now? Should I blacklist every mail from a European source? Are my dynamic IPs I had in the past a liability, in the case that IP ends up servicing an European tomorrow? (you know, IP Range Blocks do change "owners"). Must I spam every single IP that ever had sent me a email (and, then, are on my mailbox for legal reasons) asking for permission to withhold the data? If the #$@#$#!$ refuses, how in hell I can uphold my contracts without the emails as evidences? You know, emails uses IP Addresses and these are used as proof of authenticity. EDIT: And yeah, it's happening. =/ Wondering if I should do the same on my servers. EDIT2: For the concerned website owners. Yeah. I'm seriously considering jump ship on this.

    How about Aviation Lights? This allows for different colors on symmetric placed lights. It would be another mod in your installment, and another part on your vessel (well, two), but it works and I think it worths. This doesn't solves the question you asked, but allow a new way to accomplish what you want.
  25. Lisias
    Basically, yes. :-) However, until there, a lot of small people (like me) will have a very harsh time trying to avoid being stomped by a crying elephant. EDIT: And I hope that the damn elephant will at least use diapers while trying to stomp me!
