  1. It's about time I found this post!
  2. True..ish. It might be from the Hitchiker's guide to teh galaxy. The user below me likes one or more of the following bands: Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Audioslave, Temple of the Dog, Rage Against the Machine, and/or Pearl Jam.
  3. You seem really obsessed about mud... o_o I go mountain biking fairly often and the area is a flood plain. That means lots of clay, which makes mud sticky. So one day I was riding in the rain because.. why not, I had a rain jacket. I came around a corner too fast and slid off into a big pit filled with mud. My front tire went in and got stuck, launching me off into the mud face-first. Getting my bike out was a nightmare. Have you ever lost a shoe because the mud sucked it in? That's what happened to it. Eventually I got it out and rinsed off the drivetrain and disc brakes with some pooled rainwater and rode home as it started raining even harder. Luckily, by the time I got home the rain had washed both me and my bike pretty much clean, except for junk from the road surface.
  4. What laptop model is it? It may look like you can't remove it but that's how laptop keyboards are. There should be some very small tabs on the top of the keyboard you need to push inward.
  5. Tex Johnson's flight reportedly popped quite a few rivets out of the 707 he was flying. On the topic of planes that look like they are RC, check out the Pugachev's Cobra. 120 degree AoA! http://youtu.be/CGbOs0vgYOA?t=2m34s If the link breaks the timestamp, fast forward to 2min 35sec.
  6. What OS is it? You can disable the drivers for it, though there are occasionally some *ahem* unforseen consequences. I did this to my laptop's touchpad because I use a mouse and it very rarely derps up. Also if you are so inclined, you can easily remove the keyboard entirely in most laptops, which has the added bonus of better ventilation.
  7. Don't forget the United States' shootdown of Iran Air 665. People here in the US have been quick to forget it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_Air_Flight_655
  8. It would be great to allow sorting contracts by time left to complete. It is somewhat hard to understand all the information given with the current sorting. Allowing the user to click the contracts tab to sort it different ways like in Windows' file explorer(sort up/down by filename, date modified, size, etc) would make it much easier to understand. A small change, but I think it would be beneficial.
  9. Mods are cool and all, but this(Oscar-B attaching like other parts) should really be put in the default version. I can't think of any good reasons not to do so. With that, a small probe-sized radial decoupler would be a great addition. Heck maybe even a probe sized sepatron. I put this in bug reports because I couldn't think of a reason why it would be this way on purpose.
  10. As many of you likely know, the Oscar-B does not attach radially to nearly anything. There doesn't seem to be a good reason for this. Why is this the case? I know you can stick a small RCS tank to the side of what you're launching, but that messes with the mass and takes up space of small probes, two things extremely important for them. I am somewhat sure there are other parts of similar size that also don't work right. It has gotten me quite flustered when I can't attack things when they *should* work, especially when it is important that they are placed exactly where they are needed. This is probably a pretty tiny fix, we should bug the devs about it. Also note that enabling part clipping does nothing. Sorry if this has been posted before, I searched a bit and didn't find any concrete answers.
  11. Just load the ship back up in the VAB(you saved it, riiiiiiggghtt???), add fuel lines, and hyperedit into the orbit of your stricken ship and remove the old one. There are ways to edit the ship in-situ but they aren't as elegant.
  12. I was messing around on my second career mode flight, when I not only accidentally got to orbit, but also got into an interplanetary trajectory. I bailed out from the dead pod while outside of Kerbin's SOI, flew back into the SOI, and got my Pe to around 30km, and winged it. Somehow, Jeb survived the ordeal. Of course, didn't get any science from Minmus or interplanetary space because the game crashed shortly after I faceplanted. tl;dr "wat"
  13. Ok dudes, so I decoded the SSTV audio at the request of KwirkyJ. I had to do it quick because things but here they are.
  14. False. The below user has an i-device
  15. Yeah same here. I've been playing since the old demo. Since November 25, 2011, to be exact. I really didn't play until a year later though, my GFX drivers were bad and made every ship matte black. Got a new PC and everything runs...okay..ish My CPU is maxed at 1.6GHz with 2 cores >_<
