@allquixotic urk. Go easy on the shoveling, yea? Don't injure yourself

qasdfdsaq

17:37

Oh @Bob, KSP isn't just all money and missions now, they've added heating, aerodynamic stress, and various other methods of blowing up

Basically things like deadly re-entry have been integrated into the game

Bob

17:50

@qasdfdsaq yea, I heard about plans for those but stopped following it before they were actually added...

qasdfdsaq

I kinda did for a bit too. I didn't play between versions 0.25 and 1.04

Bob

Wait. Could've sworn some level of heating and aerodynamic stress were in early versions...hmm

Canadian Luke

In work, Saturday... At 4 am this morning, I got alerts about a failing hard drive in a RAID 5 array -.-

Bob

Dunno when I actually last played.

> Kerbal Space Program - 0.25.0.642 (WindowsPlayer) Steam

That's in the logs :P

> Thank you for downloading the Kerbal Space Program!

Version 1.0.5

That's in the readme... hm.

qasdfdsaq

lol

Bob

17:53

Though it might've updated itself at some point

qasdfdsaq

Steam autoupdates it all the time

Bob

The last time I played (briefly) was probably shortly after they added contracts.

Save last modified in Jul 2014.

So, yea, after 0.24, just before 0.24.1

I'd probably have to learn everything from scratch to pick it up again :P

@qasdfdsaq I should probably turn off updates...

qasdfdsaq

Nah, just play in sandbox mode and it's basically all the same

Bob

Waste of bandwidth for an unplayed game.

qasdfdsaq

Yeah, I turned off auto-updates. More importantly version updates frequently break mods and savegames

Bob

17:57

Never really did anything with mods, but my saves are probably screwed.

Who uses trackball mouse from Kensington?

Michael Frank

@Boris_yo There's a guy at work that uses one.

Boris_yo

@MichaelFrank Which model?

Michael Frank

The Expert one, I believe.

Boris_yo

@MichaelFrank There's new wireless version of it.

Michael Frank

Not really sure it needs to be wireless if all it does is sit on the desk...

Boris_yo

19:09

@MichaelFrank Would help to mobile laptop user like me.

Don't you just love it when spawning your spaceplane causes the runway to explode

I really enjoy creative shit on KSP

Anonymous

and usually being creative on KSP means it's harder to play properly and not explode (and now there's even drag, thermal problems, etc.)

DavidPostill

21:17

@qasdfdsaq lol. Did it materialise under the runway?

bwDraco

Just measured the snow – 20 inches so far.

qasdfdsaq

@DavidPostill Nope.

Astronaut Scott Kelly captured this image of the storm from the International Space Station showing storm Jonas moving up the coast

@DavidPostill you know you have a light pollution problem when even your street lights PUNCH through the clouds

@allquixotic, @Bob So I kinda made a branch where I changed almost every file. I've tested it, sort of, but things might still go in flames. Before merging it into master I'd like it if you guys tried running it for a few days and report anything that comes up.
The new branch is browserify, master.js is at https://github.com/Zirak/SO-ChatBot/blob/browserify/master.js

Thanks

Or maybe not thanks

allquixotic

@Zirak can't just bring in master.js; will have to build it myself, as I incorporate quite a few customizations

going to have to manually merge your changes as there will likely be conflicts

Zirak

Hurray!

What're your customisations? Anything we can merge in to upstream?

allquixotic

we have import/export which you haven't accepted the pull request of; we're not allowed to have auto-welcome because we're an official channel; custom !!welcome message; additional commands that you removed that I don't want to be removed; commands you have that we're not allowed to have or don't want (fuckable, summon, etc)... I could go on

Zirak

Commands that I removed? Which ones? Also, I just made the welcome message configurable(ish) earlier today

allquixotic

@Zirak gist.github.com/allquixotic/51447598c34e60e586e5

(with master.js removed of course)

Zirak

22:56

I am a and you're b?

It seems intermittent; which one of us doesn't have the run-headless? Can't be me, but I also definitely have mindjailing

allquixotic

yes

I think I may have hosed up the git diff somehow by diffing against that commit in my fork

Anonymous

@Zirak just a quick question:

Zirak

Just a quick answer

Anonymous

I'm not a stallman zealot but why did you choose the WTFPL over GPL?

Zirak

Because I don't want to force attribution. I write what I write for people to use and enjoy, I don't want to enforce any sort of contract.

If you want to use my stuff for your nuclear warhead programs that's fine too.

allquixotic

23:01

@Zirak gist.github.com/allquixotic/51447598c34e60e586e5

that should look a little more consistent

Anonymous

@Zirak I see, so you also don't quite care about the license any fork down the road may choose too? Even if it's not open source or if it is the BPL, which requires you to at least break two sections of the US criminal code in order to be authorized to use the software?

Zirak

@PatoSáinz Yes, I don't care about that either. Want to monetize on my stuff? Go ahead. Want to close source it? Couldn't care less.

k, nice

Well THAT took a while

Landing a spaceplane in KSP with no nosegear is haaarrrrddd

One of the few parts of that flight which would have been easier IRL
