03:21 <LunchBot> Inspired by the elegant design of the magnetorquer, you decide to try to build a magnetranslator to cut down on fuel costs. Hope you remembered your towels.

06:32 <FLHerne> emdrive?

06:35 <XXCoder> lol

06:36 <XXCoder> "On June 10th, 2023, an all-electrical propulsion system for satellites (the IVO Quantum Drive) will fly to space for the first time. The system was built by North Dakota-based wireless power company IVO, Ltd., and will serve as a testbed for an alternative theory of inertia that could have applications for propulsion. The engine will launch atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket as part of a dedicated rideshare (Transporter 8) hosted by

06:36 <XXCoder> commercial partner Rogue Space Systems. If the technology is validated, the Quantum Drive could trigger a revolution in commercial space and beyond. And if not, then we can relax knowing that the laws of physics are still the laws of physics!"

06:36 <XXCoder> hm what happened to that test

06:55 <FLHerne> .outcome add The trip switch was on green which you thought was right. But apparently it needs to be red. You feel like such an idiot.

06:55 <LunchBot> Added outcome: The trip switch was on green which you thought was right. But apparently it needs to be red. You feel like such an idiot.

06:58 <XXCoder> ;mission add You really want to press that huge red button on mission console. That BIG red button lures you. Just like forbidden fruit.

06:58 <XXCoder> ;mission

06:58 <LunchBot> You install an Adobe product on your computer. Due to a clerical error, nobody died.

06:58 <XXCoder> wheew

06:59 <FLHerne> doesn't seem to be any news

07:00 <FLHerne> is that the first magic reactionless drive to actually be launched into space?

07:00 <XXCoder> supposely.

07:00 <FLHerne> well, yeah

07:01 <XXCoder> no result so far. either it didnt work, test isnt done yet, or they are still working on data

07:43 <FLHerne> .mission add Jeb invents a new toffee recipe, and now 80% of Kerbals on his Mun colony have their jaws stuck shut.

11:56 <Eddi|zuHause> !mission

11:56 <LunchBot> you listen to some music GreeningGalaxy recommended on the forums. Mistakes were made.

11:57 <Eddi|zuHause> music mistakes are the worst

11:57 <XXCoder> wouldnt know lol

11:57 <XXCoder> ;mission

11:57 <LunchBot> To improve morale, you arrange a production of "The King in Yellow". You blame it on your ADD.

11:57 <XXCoder> uh is that a musical?

11:58 <XXCoder> I guess I didnt pay attention at all if I setup one...

11:58 <XXCoder> ah its a short story. stage? sounds better than musical already...

12:01 <funkenstein> I can't think of a succinct way to describe how KSP works to someone who might not have any idea what I'm talking about

12:01 <funkenstein> words of advice?

12:01 <XXCoder> "you mess around and find out with rockets"

12:01 <XXCoder> "and planes"

12:04 <FLHerne> XXCoder: It's a short story about a fictional book with the same name

12:04 <FLHerne> *fictional play, even

12:05 <XXCoder> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_King_in_Yellow

12:05 <XXCoder> interesting

12:05 <FLHerne> which drives people who read it insane

12:55 <darsie> "You assemble rockets from parts, fly missions, gain science points which you can use to unlock new parts."

14:11 <raptop> relatedly, this SCP is basically The King in Yellow with the serial numbers filed off https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-701

14:12 <Althego> also an euclid :)

14:51 <Althego> stream started

15:04 <Althego> another stream for the same https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIwvwYVUuxg

15:51 <Althego> heh... dumb ghost asks the chat the question. how do rockets fly?

15:51 <Althego> chat already: here we go again

15:51 <Althego> this is probably going to take an hour. to explain newtons's laws

15:52 <Althego> hehe somebody already suggested ksp

15:54 <sandbox> !mission

15:54 <LunchBot> Stock aero comes out. This probably has something to do with quantum.

16:07 <Althego> oh no, now it is slingshot

16:09 <Althego> hah she got the concept of the orbit

19:17 <Eddi|zuHause> ... quantum aero?

19:17 <Eddi|zuHause> !mission

19:17 <LunchBot> You design a massive spacefaring virus. You instigate CASE NIGHTMARE GREEN.

19:18 <Eddi|zuHause> how bad can a vacuum-transmissible viros be?

19:18 <Eddi|zuHause> *virus

19:22 <darsie> digital?

19:22 <darsie> Virus proteins tend to lose shape and function when they dry out.

19:58 <Azander> !mission

19:58 <LunchBot> In order to prove to your boss that the terminal doesn't accept wildcards, you issue #rm -rf * in the root directory. You don't see your rocket launch due to buffering.

20:24 <raptop> A surprisingly non-castastrophic outcome

20:46 <sandbox> !mission

20:46 <LunchBot> You question the value of orbital mechanics software written in FORTRAN. Your carbon footprint is so positive that you create a singularity and suddenly become immeasurably carbon negative.

21:11 <FLHerne> raptop: I guess they only rm -rf *d the video streaming server

21:11 <Eddi|zuHause> i think nowadays root got some protections against rm -rf

21:21 <raptop> FLHerne: probably

21:23 <Eddi|zuHause> !mission add You set out to hack 127.0.0.1.

21:23 <LunchBot> Added mission: You set out to hack 127.0.0.1.

21:24 <XXCoder> ;mission

21:24 <LunchBot> You collide a Proton and an Electron rocket in the hopes of speeding up the Neutron R&D process. Jeb is pleased to hear that he's a sexy youtube motherlover.

21:24 <XXCoder> thats weird side effect

21:24 <XXCoder> welms. time to get another jeb out of vats

21:25 <XXCoder> ;outcome add Oh well. Time to get another Jeb out of vats.

21:25 <LunchBot> Added outcome: Oh well. Time to get another Jeb out of vats.

21:28 <FLHerne> .outcome replacement Jebs

21:28 <LunchBot> You grow some replacement Jebs in the clone tanks, but they eat each other.

21:29 <FLHerne> (that was a sci-fi reference but I've totally forgotten what it was)

21:46 <raptop> Hrm, do we get better results if we grow replacement Vals?

21:46 <raptop> !mission

21:46 <LunchBot> You create a new system for cryogenic device categorization: The "Dewar Decimal" system. Your father arrives; and vents all sorts of dadly radiation.

21:46 <raptop> Of course there's a venting problem

22:01 <Eddi|zuHause> !outcome add Even weeks later, you find mun dust in places where it shouldn't be.

22:01 <LunchBot> Added outcome: Even weeks later, you find mun dust in places where it shouldn't be.

22:03 <packbart> like, on Dres

22:10 <raptop> heh

22:11 <raptop> I mean, what else would you find? Studio-grade mundust?

22:17 <XXCoder> ;mission add You fake a Mun landing, at one of stages. You however, sourced actual Mun dust for the scene.

22:17 <LunchBot> Added mission: You fake a Mun landing, at one of stages. You however, sourced actual Mun dust for the scene.

22:25 <darsie> You could get moon dust without landing with a rotovator.

22:25 <darsie> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momentum_exchange_tether#Rotovator

22:25 <darsie> Mun*

22:25 <XXCoder> lol

22:31 <Eddi|zuHause> well, "check your staging" gets a new meaning with that mission :p

22:32 <Eddi|zuHause> also, i think it misses an article or something

22:33 <XXCoder> you can do fixup if you want. english isn't my first language after all

23:05 <Eddi|zuHause> mine neither :)

23:08 <packbart> well, there's genuine Mars dust on Earth. it's just spread out too much to be noticeable

23:10 <Eddi|zuHause> i'm sure you can find more concentrated bits

23:10 <Eddi|zuHause> but those probably don't count as "dust"

23:12 <packbart> well, you could grind down a martian meteorite and decorate your stage with it. but I guess it still would need a lot of them

23:13 <packbart> ( although there seem to be some larger specimens available https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian_meteorite )

23:17 <raptop> Hrm, there's no mission or outcome with a "Czech your staging" joke

23:17 <raptop> (presumably if you fail to, you get defenestrated through the launch window)

23:18 <Eddi|zuHause> alledgedly they survived that fall

23:18 <Eddi|zuHause> by falling in a pile of dung...

23:19 <raptop> I want to say that was only for the first defenestration?

23:19 <Eddi|zuHause> no, the second one is the famous one

23:20 <raptop> ah

23:23 <Eddi|zuHause> !outcome add After you failed to czech your staging, you are defenestrated out of the launch window.

23:23 <LunchBot> Added outcome: After you failed to czech your staging, you are defenestrated out of the launch window.

23:24 <XXCoder> ;mission add You try to learn what "defenestrated" means.

23:26 <raptop> er, s/ed//g

23:30 <Eddi|zuHause> !mission

23:30 <LunchBot> You set your parachute on fire. Kmath fails to parse your outcome.

23:31 <Eddi|zuHause> probably a misconception about "hot air balloon" :p
