10:57 <Mat2ch> FLHerne: I did expect many things, but not jokes about lumberjacks wearing lingerie. Now I've got a song stuck in my head.

11:00 <sandbox> I'm just back from the lavatory :P

11:01 <sandbox> I haven't cut down any trees or had lunch yet though

11:14 <Althego> the monty python lumberjack song?

11:18 <Mat2ch> I'm a lumberjack and I'm ok. I sleep all night and I work all day!

11:41 <darsie> 1342

11:42 <darsie> almost

11:42 <Althego> hehe

11:42 <darsie> :)

11:42 <darsie> I got distracted cause I had to chain my flatmate.

11:42 <Althego> a dog?

11:43 <darsie> a human

11:43 <Althego> wtf

11:43 <darsie> A chain on her neck and a chain on her wrist.

11:44 <darsie> I have a fan.

11:44 <packbart> I imagine that's more annoying than sleeve buttons

14:59 <FLHerne> what.

15:00 <FLHerne> .quote add <darsie> I got distracted cause I had to chain my flatmate.

15:09 <raptop> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

16:20 <Mat2ch> FLHerne: You got distracted in getting the lumberjack song stuck in your head!

16:20 <Mat2ch> *distracted from

16:26 <Mat2ch> A Shortfall of Gravitas is just entering port

16:45 <LunchBot> LunchBot becomes infuriated as it repeatedly fails to receive a closing delimiter. You come to love very deeply "Cabin 1009/Exterior port." It is made of a fawn-colored enamelish polymer and its walls are extremely thick and solid: you can drum annoyingly on the wall above your bed for up to five minutes before your aft neighbors pound (very faintly) back.

16:46 <xxcoder> so annoying overall?

16:47 <xxcoder> ;mission add You keep having dreams of certain arch, and even day dreamed making statue of it out of dinner. You decide to make mission to go to real one.

16:47 <LunchBot> Added mission: You keep having dreams of certain arch, and even day dreamed making statue of it out of dinner. You decide to make mission to go to real one.

18:24 <raptop> Juno has some silly missions (eg: one person wants you to put a satellite into a synchronous orbit above a location to check out some weird activity. Then there's a followup where a different person wants you to destroy some "space debris" in that exact orbit)

18:25 <darsie> Does deorbiting count?

18:26 <darsie> impacting it would create more debris.

18:26 <darsie> Hah, how about adding it to your vehicle?

18:31 <raptop> I don't have docking ports and want to say that there's no analog to The Klaw

18:32 <raptop> deorbiting it hard enough probably counts

18:35 <raptop> ...I'm not entirely sure if impacting works, but would hope so

18:35 <raptop> However, to get enough precision, I'll probably have to unlock RCS

18:37 <Althego> once i deorbited and recovered something with landing legs. those grabbed it

18:37 <darsie> There's EVA construction.

18:40 <Althego> wasnt at that time

18:42 <Pinkbeast> EVA construction> yeah, but those things cost billions and then they just go berserk and the repair bill - oh? Oh, right.

18:43 <Althego> hehehe

18:45 <raptop> !choose EVA|Eva

18:45 <LunchBot> EVA

18:46 <darsie> !choose EVA|Valentina

18:46 <LunchBot> EVA

18:46 <darsie> EVA is more popular.

18:47 <raptop> Get in the robot, Val?

18:57 <Althego> anyway it was about 30 years ago now

19:00 <raptop> We all got tangified like a decade ago

19:00 <Althego> when processors barely had any cooling, computer cases had sharp edges, empty space was eaten by ide cables

19:29 <Mat2ch> we have weird weather right now. It's warm, humid and stormy.

19:42 <raptop> normal summer here

19:50 <Mat2ch> I'm not sure I ever experienced something like this

19:51 <sandbox> there wasn't much of a summer here

20:23 <sandbox> !mission

20:23 <LunchBot> You attempt to create an extraplanetary launchpad. There’s still some roof left. You’re open as usual. More open than usual.

20:23 <xxcoder> very open launchpad eh

20:37 <Mat2ch> Eh, it looks like I have to mine at Val. But Val needs ~1000 m/s dV down and up again. So in total 2000 m/s dV, but with different loads. Down empty, up full.

21:32 <darsie> Mat2ch: Gotta fill your ore tanks in the VAB for the ascent stage.

21:47 <Mat2ch> darsie: that's cheating.

21:47 <Mat2ch> or do you mean for testing?

21:51 <darsie> Yeah, to figure out the propulsion you need. Then empty the tanks and add the stages to get there.

21:52 <Mat2ch> yes, but how do I know how much I will need on my way up?

21:52 <Mat2ch> That's the hard part right now.

21:52 <Mat2ch> Also I might add, that I'm trying to raise 32000 units of ore.

21:52 <darsie> Build the ascent stage in the VAB with full tanks.

21:53 <darsie> Then empty the tanks, fly there, fill the tanks and fly up with the ore.

21:55 <Mat2ch> yes, but that would be overbuilt, because for the decend I will need much much less fuel

21:56 <Mat2ch> *descent

21:56 <Mat2ch> But maybe I'm going to bring an IRSU down with me. That could make things more efficient.
