funkenstein: You try to fly the Aeris 4A to orbit. Your mission fails due to lack of exclamation points.

funkenstein: You drop your snacks into the LOX tank to preserve them better. What are you asking me for? It's always "LunchBot, give me a mission." Don't you think I want to go on missions sometime? But nooo, I'm stuck here, giving you pithy statements.

the asymmetric engines on EVE ships are weird. then again is their version of "space" where smoke flows upwards
<Althego>
and there is a tiny speed limit in a liquid-like medium

well, Elite's got a similar slow-rule. It doesn't do orbits. Come to a complete stop above a planet and you'll just hang there forever
<packbart>
orbital mechanics don't make a good space shooter game
<Althego>
until war happens in space
<Althego>
then it will just basics
<Althego>
be
<packbart>
yeah, but it probably won't be a pew-pew close dogfighting war
<Althego>
as usual you wouldnt be able to see the enemy
<Althego>
possibly light seconds away
<packbart>
that dreaded slow speed of light
<packbart>
I was listening to a lot of the Expeditionary Force series. light-delay is a common problem in space warfare, especially with jump-drives that can just tunnel through space in an instant
<Althego>
it is hard to aim a something even with lasers, if it moves away in the mean time
<Althego>
but you still see it at the old position of course

Does EVE refer to the woman created by the god of Abraham?

What's the meaning of the EVE inscription on the gate that was supposed to stabilize the wormhole?
<packbart>
I'm not that deep into EVE, tbh
<darsie>
I read about it in wikipedia.
<darsie>
It's probably just a now irrelevant narrative.

;outcome add Eve gains a second, slightly smaller eve, then explodes.

Wash your hands. Don't touch your face. Avoid fossil fuels and animal products. Elect sane politicians, invest ecologically, have no (or fewer) children (later).

don't fart until you can't hold it in any longer!

just reabsorb the gases in your intestines

That's the motto of the extinction rebellion.

Get a non gas evolving gut biome and keep it that way?

But it's short-sighted.

Puts society decisions onto the individuals. But this is a job for politics, which we don't discuss here.
<darsie>
I object to suggesting Tuna salad sandwich.
<darsie>
This is off topic here.
<Deddly>
Yes please don't talk about politics here, including by saying something political followed by "which we don't discuss here" :/
<Deddly>
But tuna is OK
<Deddly>
Except for political tuna
<Mat2ch>
but what if that statement is actually made by scientists with data proofing it?
<Deddly>
Well I mean, political science is a thing too, but it's out of bounds for the KSP community because whether or not there's science behind certain things, there are some subjects that are just too volatile, and experience shows that no online community can handle those things without hatred and flame wars, even ours.
<Deddly>
Religious discussion is another area that we can't allow. It's not because Squad/TakeTwo etc. have taken a view that religion is wrong, it's just that discussion of the subject between strangers online can only rarely occur without hurt feelings.

Mat2ch, i am in favor of producing as much as we can while we can - i think there is a temporary moment where we can do this, and whatever choices we make will lead to some type of collapse. The hardships faced then will mean that the stronger methods & people survive, with the strongest tech being adopted. best that there be a lot to be picked from, thus as many people and as much stuff as possible. keep producing!!!
<darsie>
I don't like spaghetti, even though I'm an official member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Hmm, I might actually have hurt someone by saying this.

The correct approach to spagehetti is to confuse everyone by putting marinara sauce on it
<raptop>
Or to use rotini or something in a peanut sauce
<Mat2ch>
And then cut them up into small pieces.
<Mat2ch>
Very small pieces
<packbart>
"Rotini is related to fusilli, but has a tighter helix, i.e. with a smaller pitch" - Compact Fusilli, I see

usually uses fusili.

Fusili are halal.

I guess I have to try. But first I must criticize CERN.
<Althego>
for what
<Althego>
for consuming energy?
<kubi>
for not creating a black hole when they could have, so we have to be here
<Althego>
hehe
<Althego>
it was unlikely anyway
<Althego>
supposedly cosmic rays and stuff have higher energies
