egg changed the topic of #principia to: Logs: https://esper.irclog.whitequark.org/principia | <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/ | <egg> calculating the influence of lamont on Pluto is a bit silly…

⟨Kirk (He/Him)⟩ I suspect egg will disagree with that sentiment

⟨Darkherring⟩ There is no way to stabilize vessel during timewarp besides spinning it up, right?

[Principia] Dupiter-AU opened issue #4004: Unable to find principia.so; strace shows the game searching in tons of weird locations, but never in GameData/principia/Linux64 - https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/issues/4004

⟨sichelgaita⟩ Well, as far as I am concerned, no need to touch the problem at all. But if I ever decided to touch that problem, I would want to do it right and not slap a "max" somewhere because someone on the Internet thought it was cool.
<queqiao->
I'm also rather confused by the discussion in that screenshot. It says: "the gravity geopotential is a series that sums terms with "|r|^-k" in them, the term with "k=2" represents Newtonian gravity". That statement is false. For for geopotential, "k=1" is the Newtonian gravity. Maybe that's a language problem, and we are talking about the force, but details matter because if you use a "max" in the potential you'll make the force discontinuous at...
<queqiao->
... "R_max" and your vessel will blow up when crossing the Brillouin sphere.

Yes I mean gravity force by "geopotential model" because by this term I mean everything that related to the non-relativistic gravititional field related to a non-point mass center body.
<queqiao->
I said k=2 means Newtonian gravity to ensure that I am talking about gravity acceleration field, not specific potential energy.
