<egg|zzz|egg> Iskierka: want to try Cartan on linux?
<Iskierka> ... I'm technically in a java lab but I've also finished so sure why not
<egg|zzz|egg> :D
<Iskierka> not sure if I reinstalled KSP yet though
<egg|zzz|egg> so the new thing here is the Target frame, see https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/wiki/Concepts#user-interface-changes (and the description of the frame below), and a quick guide here https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/wiki/A-guide-to-performing-low-orbit-rendezvous
<Iskierka> Oooor I can just boot it up and see what happens :D
<egg|zzz|egg> Iskierka: absolutely :D download link: http://goo.gl/IoYB1F
<Iskierka> I have the principia window immediately at least
<egg|zzz|egg> yay
<Iskierka> appears to be functional and possibly less laggy in map?
<Iskierka> ... I think I got a semi-cycler by accident
<Iskierka> it has a near periapse around the mun on the kerbin side, orbits way out but loops around the L1 point, then comes back to abou the same periapse
<Iskierka> this is a weeeird orbit
<Iskierka> and I can maintain it relatively easily with little radial/grade bursts to keep the periapsis in the keyhole
<Iskierka> booo I lost it
<Iskierka> and am starting to get lag from history now
<Iskierka> imgur is gonna mis-order it all again isn't it
<Iskierka> https://imgur.com/a/BiCCS I think I got that in correct order
<egg|zzz|egg> Iskierka: have you tried rendez-vous?
<egg|zzz|egg> Iskierka: nice trajectories btw
<Iskierka> I didn't and I should probably actually do some work. And I have no idea how that trajectory works, wobbling inside the L1 point in an almost perfect circle and coming back
<egg|zzz|egg> have you tried looking at it in the barycentric rotating frame? for this kind of trajectory the nonrotating frame can be more confusing
<Iskierka> I closed it so not atm

<Iskierka> y'know, pis are so cheap
<Iskierka> but stuff for them is £££
* Iskierka just spend £90 on: one battery UPS for stationary server pi, one that supports high-voltage DC input for the zero that will become a robot car, and a large battery for the latter
<UmbralRaptor> Can raspis pull power over USB?
<Iskierka> They can, actually. But then I'd need a USB device that will hold the power
<UmbralRaptor> Some $10 power bank for phones?
<Iskierka> tbf I could've saved on the one for serverpi by just getting a USB battery pack like that but it's like 30/40/20 ratio, so it wouldn't be saving that much
<Iskierka> just figured "let's get something nice that fits in the case and is meant for this"
<Iskierka> would probably get a bit more time out of a USB pack but also a lot of them apparently have problems that the power flickers when they lose their own power, so the pi will often drop anyway
<Iskierka> which can be fixed by putting capacitors on the pi's +5V to hold it long enough but yeah, too much faff
<Iskierka> the important one is the HV one that does like 28V, so like ... 8S LiPo?
<Iskierka> can have that power a controlling pi in ANY RC thing, pretty much

<soundnfury> so I'm reading about helices and screw handedness and so on, and I come across this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tendril_perversion
<soundnfury> in other news, I've concluded that chemists got their names the wrong way round
<soundnfury> the polarisation in a laevorotatory material actually describes a _right_-handed screw :/
