You disturb the PrefixCactus. To everyone's surprise this didn't result in a giant explosion, it just sort of fizzled out.
<Mat2ch>
Lucky you.
<FLHerne>
must have been in a good mood
<Mat2ch>
Starliner will be coming back on Friday. That will be interesting
<packbart>
without the problematic thrusters

You inform your kerbals that they are trapped in a cycle of death and ~~rebirth~~ respawning. The consequences either only affect people without money or can be "solved" by throwing money at them. You take this to mean that you're really good at making decisions.

<FLHerne>
Do ordinary Kerbals have money?
<FLHerne>
they don't seem to get paid from the mission budget
<Althego>
are there ordinaty kerbals?
<Althego>
or rather what is an ordinary kerbal?
<Althego>
non-spacer kerbals?
<FLHerne>
question applies to any Kerbals, I suppose
<Mat2ch>
What would Kerbals buy with their money?
<Mat2ch>
And how do they even get the ressources for the space program?!
<Mat2ch>
Or are they really living underground? Then why is the administration building above ground? I smell plot holes!
<Althego>
they buy space tourism
<darsie>
Kerbals spawn in orbit or celestial bodies. On Kerbin they walk to the astronaut complex.
<Althego>
natural ehrding behavior
<Althego>
herding
<darsie>
Oddly I've never seen a Kerbal walk to the KCS, not even on the map. Maybe they get their tracker implanted in the KSC.
<darsie>
.mission add You implant a tracker in your newly hired Kerbal.
<LunchBot>
Added mission: You implant a tracker in your newly hired Kerbal.
<FLHerne>
The entire breeding population of Kerbals lives in the KSC
<Althego>
maybe they are the survivors of a worldwide catastrophe
<Althego>
that is why kerbin is so barren
<FLHerne>
there's a cultural taboo on duplicate names, but when the previous user dies it's up for grabs
<FLHerne>
names of prominent and respected kerbals are always claimed quickly
<Mat2ch>
In addition it is quiet common to copy all the features a Kerbal with the previous name had. It's like the name has the desire to be something specific
<FLHerne>
That's a common misconception by people getting cause-and-effect backward
<FLHerne>
young kerbals compete to take over the name of heroes they wish to emulate
<FLHerne>
and the Council of Orange Suits picks the most appropriate candidate
<FLHerne>
worldwide catastrophe would explain the weird course of tech development, and half the parts coming from junkyards
<FLHerne>
and the bizarre testing contracts
<FLHerne>
they /have/ all the parts, but not the knowledge of how to use them
<sandbox>
did you ever play Armour-Geddon?
<sandbox>
I barely remember the backstory
<Mat2ch>
FLHerne: Thanks for clarifying this. I was under a wrong impression here
<Pinkbeast>
The admin building is above ground so it can see the rest of the KSC and to help kerbonauts acclimate themselves to the sight of the sky
<Pinkbeast>
(kerbals are haplodiploid like the social insects; this is why the male kerbals are suicidally brave to impress the Queen, why the female kerbals are happy to die in the service of the hive, and why the Queen is a radically different entity to every other kerbal with complete control over them. She's also pretty bad at designing rockets.)
<Mat2ch>
There has to be added that ALL Kerbals are pretty bad at designing rockets. Without our godl, ehm, humanly intervention they would all end in the ocean. Or worse: On Minmus.
<Pinkbeast>
You say that but _someone_ gets all those stranded kerbals into orbit
<Mat2ch>
The are all on their way to Minmus, but don't know it yet.
<FLHerne>

You try to send a cabbage, a goat and a wolf to the mun, but the capsule only holds you and one other item. Your friendship drive overheats and everyone hates you.
<xxcoder>

<xxcoder>
;mission
<LunchBot>
You petition the KSC cafeteria to serve nuclear pasta. ...but nothing happens!
<xxcoder>
thats the usual
<Az>
They probably don't have enough copper powder to make it yet.
<Althego>
hehe yes, when did petitions achieve naything
<sandbox>

"I've got a question about Starliner," Wilmore radioed down to Mission Control, at Johnson Space Center in Houston. "There's a strange noise coming through the speaker ... I don't know what's making it."
<packbart>
Starliner is haunted by ghosts of Kerbals past
