[02:13:32] Weird realization: at this moment there are 4 spacecraft missions dedicated to trying to understand asteroids. As in flying right now. [02:14:19] They will mine the asteroids. [03:16:35] UmbralRaptor: moar [03:16:49] UmbralRaptor: double asteroid [03:52:30] ... connect to asteroids with clamps? [03:52:38] ... claws [03:58:09] The Klaaaw [03:58:13] the klaw is our master [05:39:16] who was it that complained about construction machinery not being mecha enough? https://twitter.com/__ZAW__/status/1017616929857593344?s=19 [05:39:17] <__ZAW__> 7nPcfSFDFnYMgW‡& https://t.co/Q6gwN8O5tk [05:42:14] pictures of construction machines and tractors considered possibly offensive.. really? [05:42:29] or rather.. sensitive..

Probably. [16:03:51] but he didnt progress with the 2 m antenna for radio telescope [17:26:25] Greets, ya'all! [17:26:52] Question: Is there a way to find/use/generate permalinks to KSP forum threads? [17:27:04] Please ping me. Thanks! [18:32:43] So, apparentlty a small flathead screwdriver is perfect for scraping off stickers and stuff. [19:11:41] Well... looks like I've managed to get actual data from a satellite in real life... hmm.. [19:12:32] it is possible [19:12:37] nice achievement [19:19:12] I could report it in too... /if/ I had a station ID to go along with it [19:19:36] actually i can get data from satellites too: gps :) [19:19:37] 3rd of the group of three about to swing over head in 20 minutes.. [19:20:21] but for example getting weather satellite pictures isa big achievement for an amateur [19:20:23] nearly anyone can get GPS... I've an old megallen but its having issues keeping time [19:20:57] not at the weather sat yet... been getting am-sats, fly over in 8-12 minutes.. [19:22:01] my parents used to get satelite data too back in the old days, they called that "Tv Receiver" [19:22:15] hehe [19:22:39] 24/7 [19:22:40] ^^ [19:25:02] Mm... guessing C-band? [19:25:16] if you try to get staelite images are thos in usable format/protocoll or is it only space tech nonsense? [19:25:28] I've actually saved a 6ft dish from a video store, they were giving it away for free [19:25:31] it is unencrypted [19:25:43] and you can get them, there are even some programs for it [19:25:48] at least that is what i saw in youtube :9 [19:25:49] unencrypted? is that even a word [19:26:02] there are videos that show you how to pull stuff from weather sats... [19:26:09] ah isee [19:26:17] http://www.dictionary.com/browse/unencrypted [19:26:37] newspeak... [19:26:39] user thought emporium has some vids, and then some other stuff they've done [19:30:51] i think i saw those videos where they got the images [19:30:59] well i lied... we never had satelite tv but i had a girlfriend whos parents used it, back in the soviet days we had only terrestrial analog TV and pointed the antennas to the west to get the illegal tv programms :) [19:31:36] hehe [19:31:43] you were lucky [19:32:02] here there were jamming towers to block signals from the west :) [19:32:12] oh wow :) [19:32:46] we lived 70km away from the border [19:33:50] and a friend of mine almost right in the deadzone :) the storys from the old people are pretty interresting from those times [19:36:31] we used to be able to pick up the signal from our neighbours [19:37:22] he seemed to always be on italian opera channels [19:37:41] hehe [19:38:00] also an odd memory of mine is that i remebmer a time when we didnt had a telephone and had to go to some neighbour who was one of the few with a telephone line [19:38:22] yes we didnt have a line for a long time [19:38:40] now we dont have one again, because mobiles hones [19:38:40] maybe that was even 1990 or so [19:38:42] phones [19:38:47] hehe [19:38:48] yeah [19:39:06] there are times wish things didn't go digital here, or at least give us the option.. any little bit kills the digital for a few moments [19:39:41] well not with the german Telekom... you have to have also pay for the phone line... because reasons [19:40:03] yes t hey were pushing hard to get a line too [19:40:12] but i resisted [19:40:28] I know some places over there, tv, radio, computer, you have to pay a 'tax' just to use them [19:41:01] remember writable cds and dvds? [19:41:16] sure [19:41:24] anything that can pickup a broadcast signal of any kind.. have to pay a licensing fee for it. [19:41:27] there was a time when there was a tax on them, to automatically give money to copyright organizations [19:41:54] "re"writable and a time when that was a legit way to transport data [19:42:47] here in germany that tax still exists and is also on sd cards and usb sticks i think, [19:42:51] zip-drives ;) [19:42:57] hehe zip drive [19:43:01] i have never seen one in real life [19:43:11] think some places still use tape drive backups [19:43:12] that huge capacity, 120 megabytes or something [19:43:19] we almost got a zip drive :) [19:43:22] tapes are good for backups [19:43:30] totally legit [19:43:31] it was around for a little bit... least till CD's became a big deal [19:43:40] ok time to go listen to space-bird [19:43:48] I used a zip drive once... [19:44:02] start of a meme line [19:44:46] ...it ate me. [19:44:52] lol [19:45:12] we got our first pc right before the cd revolution so i remember using 1.44mb diskete to save savegames and stuff [19:45:42] i remember when there was no tv on every day :) [19:45:57] and there were 2 channels, and that was lot, because originally there was only 1 :) [19:45:59] However I DO remember using floppy disks...a LOT, my first computer was a Tandy 1000 EX [19:46:30] althego yeah and when there was test picture and no programm at night [19:46:41] 5 1/4" floppies were normal back then. [19:47:36] our puplic tv channels are called "The First" and "The Second" even today [19:47:43] yes, here too [19:47:52] actually they mde some 3rd and 4th now [19:47:59] but i doubt anybody watches them [19:49:00] heh, I remember coming across some Canadian porn channel at a friends camp a long time ago, but the picture was so snowy... [19:49:11] hehe [19:50:02] our puplic broadcast agency gatheres billions of euros and they have a vast amount of tv channels and radio shows and podcasts and since early last year a internet based media thingy [19:51:18] my school had a zip drive [19:51:31] the quality of content varies a lot but some of it is pretty good, and the private tv channels have gone the reality soap garbage [19:51:51] hehe that is just so bad [19:51:58] goodthing i dont watch tv [19:53:46] me neither but i sometimes feel leftout because the simple folks at work are often like "did you watch"... [19:56:34] even the informative shows i loved when i was a kid are mostly empty entertaiment shows who are trying to be like what they think of youtube is [19:56:37] or so [19:56:50] hehe [19:57:28] what is with this netflix ad about the psych kid and girl [19:57:46] yt pushes that all the time [19:57:49] it is getting really boring [19:58:37] still better (love story than twilight) than it was during the elections [20:01:11] Hello, if any Wiki administrators are here, it seems like the wiki has been spammed [20:01:19] If you look at the Recent Changes page [20:01:49] Althego where from? I remember visiting Denmark.. 2 channels, half the stuff was in english.. which was kind of fortunate for me [20:02:00] hungary [20:02:13] nod.. denmark also didn't broadcast 24/7 [20:02:34] but denmark is already "the west" [20:02:38] mind you.. talk'n back in '86 and before [20:03:13] they still have teletext [20:03:27] yes, that still exists [20:03:43] but hard to get, because the tv is coming through fiber optics [20:04:18] we used to have tele stuff on tv over here but didn't last too long [20:04:42] the one over there is cool because its one channel, and you can flip through 'pages' [20:05:21] I ran across a version of it on the website.. sorta emulates what you'd see on the tv [20:20:39] I hardly ever watch TV anymore...unless it's through SmartTV apps. [20:24:50] heh it's business time in august [20:24:55] will htat thing ever launch [20:25:02] I seem to be doing youtube more than anything [21:35:29] Action: UmbralRaptor stares at the wiki. [21:35:35] Action: UmbralRaptor sobs. [21:37:55] what's happening there? [21:41:58] O.o [21:44:48] Steam sale is over, btw [21:51:03] speaking of Steam, Hacknet is free [21:52:35] Mat2ch: large scale spamming. Check out the recent changes. [21:54:45] Action: UmbralRaptor has banned 77 users and deleted 629 pages so far tonight. [21:58:04] :| [22:00:23] 82 bans, and maneTI got 3 more. I think that's all of them, but there's probably >1k more pages to delete. =\ [22:11:35] ?!? [22:27:21] didn't they already give Hacknet away free earlier? [22:27:34] interesting they're doing it again [22:27:54] or no, was that Humble Store [22:56:28] eesh, found Print Shop 22 at a local thrift store...I've never seen multiple installation CDs in a while. [22:57:17] I'm copying them to my USB drive and installing from there, too much of a pain. [23:11:05] mmm... [23:11:52] while 1.4.4 is out... is any previous version ksp dead subject matter now? Pondering, if I do some videos, won't be with the latest version [23:26:00] mmm... alright then... [23:31:58] Depends on details? [23:43:26] some craft I designed in the early versions... a mission I want to record from a contract I got in career mode. [23:43:47] its a rescue mission off mun, but its pretty far south, around 45deg..
