DasSkelett: got offer of KSP flags and t-shirts
<VITAS[m]>
no cardboard kerbals sadly
<VITAS[m]>
i doubt they have ksp2 demos ready by then but im asking anyways
<VITAS[m]>
and i need to find computers to run ksp on because they cant provide any
DasSkelett[m] has joined #spacedock
<VITAS[m]>
yes
<DasSkelett[m]>
KSP2 demos would be awesome!
<DasSkelett[m]>
I don't know where to get some from either :/
<VITAS[m]>
problem is that we need stuff with okish 3d cards
<VITAS[m]>
no office pc
<VITAS[m]>
if we find none people have to bring their own
<VITAS[m]>
makes it less inviting for new players
<DasSkelett[m]>
It does
<VITAS[m]>
hmm i could ask other companies for sponsoring but ccc and sponsering is hard
<VITAS[m]>
because we dont allow advertising
<VITAS[m]>
they even cover exisitng advertisements
<DasSkelett[m]>
The CCC is legally non-profit right? So they could at least get the tax back 😛
<DasSkelett[m]>
Oh you mean from CCCs side.
<VITAS[m]>
the ccc could buy computers but i got into a fight over that in the past
<VITAS[m]>
so not again
<VITAS[m]>
yes even having ksp logos all over the shop is soemthing i have to do carefully
<VITAS[m]>
and imagine me approaching some manuafacturer for computers
<VITAS[m]>
they usualy want their banners displayed
<VITAS[m]>
we have sponserings from juniper and so on
<VITAS[m]>
but for them its testing new stuff in large networks and bragging rights that they provide the hw for this event outside of it
<VITAS[m]>
gaming inst that of a focus so e-sports says who when they hear ccc
<DasSkelett[m]>
Yeah I thought about asking manufacturers that also provided PCs for the Gamescom e.g., but they probably want their name written all over it
<VITAS[m]>
and gamescon attracts gaming rig customers
<VITAS[m]>
ccc attracts people with thinkpads
<VITAS[m]>
:D
<DasSkelett[m]>
^^
<VITAS[m]>
No KSP2 Demos
<VITAS[m]>
"deffinitly"
<VITAS[m]>
:D
<VITAS[m]>
i tried
<VITAS[m]>
:>
<DasSkelett[m]>
Nuh
<DasSkelett[m]>
But expected
<VITAS[m]>
yes to early and they surley want to uncover it at another event e.g. gamescon next year
<VITAS[m]>
If this thing goes great i might be able to convince them of my idea of a Kerbalcon :)
<VITAS[m]>
I always wished this was a thing
<DasSkelett[m]>
"Come to KerbalCon! Real-size exploding rockets, failing rocket launches and cuddly Jebs. Only on KerbalCon! Moar boosters than anywhere else."
<VITAS[m]>
meet all the devs (even the ones who quit)
<VITAS[m]>
:d
<VITAS[m]>
and now he asks me how many licenses of ksp i want
<VITAS[m]>
how do you answer that?
<VITAS[m]>
all of them?
<VITAS[m]>
:P
<VITAS[m]>
resistance is futile you need to play ksp
<DasSkelett[m]>
To give away? Or to install on the PCs (we have yet to get)?
<VITAS[m]>
;)
<VITAS[m]>
both
<VITAS[m]>
i said 40-50
<VITAS[m]>
20 to install 20 to give away
<VITAS[m]>
and i maybe get another dlc key because i gave mine to darklight
<DasSkelett[m]>
Every day a handful for those really interested 👍
<VITAS[m]>
yes
<VITAS[m]>
and every one who comes hoem with such a key will "inrfect" their community :)
<VITAS[m]>
if we get computers we could make a contest
<VITAS[m]>
do x challange the best and get a t-shirt or key
<DasSkelett[m]>
Challenges sound good
<VITAS[m]>
yes
<VITAS[m]>
if you come up with any idea to get ksp capale pcs to the event tell me
<VITAS[m]>
each pc lend gets to keep the ksp license
<VITAS[m]>
:)
<DasSkelett[m]>
Hmmmm
<DasSkelett[m]>
Maybe I should get in contact with the local hacker space. I doubt they have a lot of complete PCs to spare, but it's worth a try.
<VITAS[m]>
I know them because theyre our "guys on the ground" for organizing this event
<VITAS[m]>
im thinking of lenovo because lenovo as such has a satron stance in the community and noone minds lenovo machiens with large lenovo stickers on the side
<VITAS[m]>
but i have no contacts there so its a shot into the blue
<DasSkelett[m]>
Guys on the ground? I thought they were Angels 😉
<VITAS[m]>
angels are the helpers at events
<VITAS[m]>
but i meant the people beeing at the location year round
<VITAS[m]>
i will be most likely part of that next year when its back in hamburg
<VITAS[m]>
because im living there
<DasSkelett[m]>
Oh I meant my local hackerspace, not the Leipzig one
<VITAS[m]>
local as in my area
<VITAS[m]>
?
<DasSkelett[m]>
You're switching back to Hamburg? Is the Congress Center bigger?
<VITAS[m]>
im a memeber of that one we dont have game machines
<DasSkelett[m]>
As in my area, where I live.
<VITAS[m]>
we went to leipzig because of the renovation of the congresscenter in hamburg
<VITAS[m]>
yes you can try those
<VITAS[m]>
all i can bring is 2 gfx cards
<VITAS[m]>
good thing that kspo runs on oldish hw
<DasSkelett[m]>
If I get a new PC till then I could bring my current one too
<VITAS[m]>
i will get to leipzig by train so i cant bring much
<DasSkelett[m]>
Oh right, me too
<VITAS[m]>
we will at least find a handfull of computers somewhere
<VITAS[m]>
and we could put DMP on them
<VITAS[m]>
:D
<VITAS[m]>
and make an congress server and make it open to anyone to join
<DasSkelett[m]>
Have no experience with DMP, but won't be too hard to get running hopefully
<VITAS[m]>
no easy as running an exe flie
<VITAS[m]>
file
<VITAS[m]>
setting up servers isnt hard either and i can always nudge darklight :D
