00:04 <Probus> Is it best to try to modify your physics warp speed or split nodes or is there another option?

00:10 <soundnfury> !tell Pap is the crewed orbit repeat contract meant to pay enough for the launch? 'cos it doesn't, now that man-rated rockets are expensive

00:10 <Qboid> soundnfury: I'll redirect this as soon as they are around.

00:13 <awang> Probus: There's Better Time Warp Continued for messing with warp speeds

00:13 <awang> Although I've found that it also tends to reset regular timewarp speeds to that of stock, for some reason

00:16 <awang> Trivial to fix, though

00:16 <awang> Well, temporarily, at least

00:17 <Probus> I've heard of that one. I was also thinking of writing a kOS script to slow my approach to my target planet.

00:18 <Probus> I always seem to do that burn wrong.

00:19 <soundnfury> Probus: for the 'calculate the burn' part, it should be doable with konrad (probably 'mnv' console), though you might want to teach it something other than retrograde/fixed/inertial orientations

00:20 <soundnfury> (and yes, konrad IS my answer to everything, how did you guess?)

00:20 <Probus> I've never heard of it. I'll have to look that one up.

00:21 <soundnfury> ^ not sure if sarcastic xD

00:23 <Probus> Telemachus I've heard of. Don't remember KONRAD. :)

00:25 <soundnfury> you _are_ doing it on purpose :P

00:26 <awang> soundnfury: New IRC bot idea: responds to anything ending with a question mark with "The answer is KONRAD"

00:26 <Probus> There, take some of your own medicine soundnfury. :P

00:28 <soundnfury> awang: I entirely unironically approve of this suggestion ;)

00:29 <soundnfury> Probus: it's not my fault I invented a tool that can do literally everything except make the tea

00:29 <soundnfury> !tea

00:29 <Qboid> soundnfury: No teabot!

00:34 <awang> soundnfury: Any guesses as to how long it'll take before an op gets tired of the KONRAD spam and bans the bot?

00:34 <Bornholio> Just make PBAN !tea

00:45 <soundnfury> awang: I want to say "ooh, about three minutes" but literally no-one but me will know why that's funny :(

00:45 <soundnfury> stupid family in-jokes

01:45 <xShadowx> did you guys know - pumpkin pie is nomz :D

01:47 <soundnfury> keep your pumpkini — I have dark chocolate :D

02:07 <Bornholio> in pie tin blend 6 cups sugar fine grind, add 5 cups stump remover (potasium nitrate), add three teaspoons ground rust, and 3 teaspoons powdered aluminum. bring to temperature gently roast until nice gooey brown, carefully fill 3 liter pop bottle with top portion removed. tamp around a 1.5inch dowel. add 4 peices of half round stock 1/4-1/2inch diameter around large dowel. pat surface flat with plastic wrap. pour in refractory ceramic and

02:07 <Bornholio> bake full assmbly if possible or use refractory grout. using wine cork form nozzle throat. Consume in large open area. :)

02:21 <soundnfury> Bornholio: reminds me of http://lewisandquark.tumblr.com/post/140219420017/the-silicon-gourmet-training-a-neural-network-to

02:22 <Bornholio> nice

02:24 <Bornholio> my recipe is good though, just do the melty portion in a fire safe area. Also 3 liters of Rocket candy launched rocket is going to be illegal most places. .BigSmile

02:25 <Bornholio> well good night, lots of storms so i should shut down

02:26 <soundnfury> nn

02:26 <soundnfury> try not to explode

13:12 <Probus__> Is the next SpaceX launch a reusable launch?

17:19 <soundnfury> Probus__: launch Monday (Iridium, Vandy) is a new core, landing on JRTI. Following launch Wednesday (SES-11, Cape) is reused (from CRS-10), landing on OCISLY.

19:01 <github> [RP-0] ntimpe opened pull request #770: Add more crew reports (master...patch-6) https://git.io/vdzLR

20:41 <Probus__> Sweet! Thanks soundnfury

20:47 <awang> Wait what

20:47 <awang> The RD-103 has roll control?

20:48 <blowfish> nozzle vanes?

20:51 <awang> Uh

20:51 <awang> idk?

20:51 <awang> Are those present in the model?

20:52 <awang> Or any other way of telling?

20:59 <blowfish> typically not actually modeled

20:59 <blowfish> if you have RCS build aid you can look at where the thrust transforms are though

21:00 <blowfish> engines that have nozzle vanes IRL typically have 4 of them

21:00 <awang> Oh wait, those arrows actually mean something?

21:00 <awang> I have been enlightened

22:19 <Probus__> Does anyone know what the land speed record actually is in stock KSP?

22:33 <ProjectThoth> KSP Guinness wen

22:38 <Probus> 1227.9 m/s?
