  1. I’m wondering if a blunter shape would simplify the engineering for that chomper cargo bay, myself.
  2. Congratulations on another successful orbit without any RUDs or other critical system failures. Congratulations on another successful orbit without any RUDs or other critical system failures.
  3. Rumor mill is saying peta or some other bunch of clowns are waiting in the wings with a lawsuit as soon as the launch license drops, hence the lack of official communication. Take with a grain of salt.
  4. Was it also, perhaps… against the wall? Also FOR THE LOVE OF JEB THIS SO ABSOLUTELY NEEDS TO BE A THING IM DYIN’ HERE!!!!1!1!1!-!
  5. Engine nozzle went Kerbal, apparently. “Thermo-structural failure.”
  6. I got COVID. I feel like the blunt end of a deceased raccoon. BUT, it’s Stevie Nicks’ COVID so at least I’ve got that going for me. wife went to the concert the other day, so now she’s got Covid, I’ve got Covid, the band’s got Covid. Fun times.
  7. I remember a time, many and many-a ago, when we were saying exactly the same thing about Falcon Heavy. Well said. Let us not forget that barely four years ago the whole place was nothing but a mound of dirt in the middle of nowhere. I think maybe NASA going all-in and partnering with SpaceX for HLS kinda legitimized the whole process. A lot less seemly to go blowing up rockets willy-nilly even if that does advance things faster. is that what the kids are calling it these days?
  8. The first bumble of spring! also not a bumble but it sure was buzzing.
  9. FWIW Kidde makes Wi-Fi-networked smoke/CO detectors. Zero false alarms so far despite being 10’ from a woodstove with a tendency to backdraft when starting, and can shut down alarms from your phone, too, Have no idea how well they work in an actual “oh crap” moment tho.
  10. Scanned through this… what about if I don’t HAVE a settings.json file? I downloaded direct from KSP.com, no installer, just unzipped to a new folder as usual.
  11. It was bizarre, never seen it accumulate like this. Very spotty too, seems to have just hit our neighborhood down here.
  12. Thunder. Graupel. Grupel is a tiny bit like hail, but white & squishy not icy and solid. Sometimes falls when the conditions are close but not quite right for snow, but rarely in much quantity, usually it swaps to true snow or rain. Today we got an hour-long downpour of the stuff! A solid inch by the looks of it, a wet, heavy mess that’s like walking around through unflavored Slurpee. And thunder, to boot! Puppy was not impressed. now it’s all turning to ice, by the sounds of it some neighbor is still trying to make it up the hill out yonder.
  13. Indeed. In proper Kerbal fashion, time for... plan B...
  14. Today, like so many others, I… (wait fo it) …am going a little deeper into debt to schlep across town and buy a new graphics card. Only ten minutes in and my RX580 that runs RDR2 so well begs for the sweet release of death. Also:
