L3[00:02:45] <FLHerne> different version

L4[00:02:50] <FLHerne> .mission

L5[00:02:50] <LunchBot> You attempt to use the Penrose process to power an interstellar spacecraft. Just imagine how much worse it would have been for your space program if you *hadn't* unlocked additional launch sites before that test.

L6[00:03:35] <FLHerne> darn, the black hole ate my launch site

L7[00:05:38] <FLHerne> .outcome add You live the (very) high life.

L8[00:05:39] <LunchBot> Added outcome: You live the (very) high life.

L9[00:09:41] <xxcoder> ;outcome add You get high while getting high. Your mission is a success.

L10[00:09:42] <LunchBot> Added outcome: You get high while getting high. Your mission is a success.

L11[00:39:51] <FLHerne> raptop etc.: Have you read the short story 'The Clockwork Atom Bomb'? If not, do.

L34[15:30:42] <Deddly> !mission

L35[15:30:43] <LunchBot> You draw the curtains on your launch window. It was awful, but thankfully you slept though the whole thing.

L36[15:30:59] <Deddly> That's why I drew the curtains, of course.

L37[15:51:12] <KrazyKrl> ;mission add You run out of whipped cream so you start using whipped mayonnaise instead.

L38[15:51:12] <LunchBot> Added mission: You run out of whipped cream so you start using whipped mayonnaise instead.

L39[16:05:05] <Deddly> Eeew

L46[18:02:34] <Mat2ch> !mission

L47[18:02:34] <LunchBot> You remove the Squad folder. You salute the triumphant Space Frogs.

L48[18:02:48] <Mat2ch> So that's what they were hiding!

L52[19:09:54] <Mat2ch> !mission

L53[19:09:55] <LunchBot> To ensure consistency and mitigate user forgetfulness, you have IT store everyone's password in a spreadsheet and update it across all systems. Every two months each user must submit a new password choice by email. TheKosmonaut deletes your recently added ;outcome due to your bad grammar.

L54[19:10:32] <Althego> .mission add You try to apply bang-bang control on Jeb's head.

L55[19:10:32] <LunchBot> Added mission: You try to apply bang-bang control on Jeb's head.

L56[19:10:53] <Mat2ch> He should've deleted that IT managers career

L57[19:13:25] <Althego> .mission add The launch was aborted because Bill was doing the safety dance under the fully fueled rocket.

L58[19:13:25] <LunchBot> Added mission: The launch was aborted because Bill was doing the safety dance under the fully fueled rocket.

L59[20:05:16] <Deddly> That spreadsheet thing reminds me of that cryptocurrency scam

L60[20:05:54] <Mat2ch> Isn't that a tautology? Because every cryptocurrency is a scam?

L61[20:08:02] <Althego> hmm maybe i should have added that as an outcome because of the abort

L62[20:08:12] <Althego> but originally i was just thinking about dancing

L63[20:08:28] <Althego> and that is unfinished. abort seems like final

L64[20:15:34] <Deddly> Mat2ch, eeh. Not any more than money is, I guess.

L65[20:16:16] <Mat2ch> Official money has at least some rules around it.

L66[20:16:53] <Deddly> Cryptocurrency is only worth what other people are willing to pay for it, just like every other currency. It's more volatile than most conventional currencies but that doesn't automatically make it a scam.

L67[20:18:45] <Deddly> I'm sure X can give us some valuable insight on that

L68[20:19:59] <Althego> the difference is, behind a normal currency there is a country

L69[20:26:16] <Deddly> Sure. But that doesn't make cryptocurrency a scam.

L70[20:28:45] <Deddly> Gold isn't tied to a country either :)

L71[20:29:30] <Deddly> I'm not saying cryptocurrency is a wise investment. I just think that "scam" is a bit of a strong word.

L72[20:29:56] <Althego> i thought blockchain buzzword is of a bygone era

L73[20:29:59] <Althego> now it is all ai

L74[20:30:03] <Althego> and it is also a scam

L75[20:31:22] <Althego> or as steve burke said, nvidia refused the 100 billion deal with openai. the money it didnt have, what they would have used to buy video cards from nvidia, which were not produced, for datacenters which were not build, and did not have electric connection, for features not yet implemented for users not yet subscribed

L76[20:32:48] <Mat2ch> But gold at least gives you something.

L77[20:32:53] <Mat2ch> Crew-12 just docked

L80[20:59:44] <Mat2ch> !mission

L81[20:59:44] <LunchBot> The devs add a cloaking device as a clever trick to solve performance issues and claim an almost infinite increase in FPS. You did not have mission report in triplicate, so you are arrested and sent to jail.

L82[21:00:27] <Mat2ch> !outcome fixup s/did not have mission/did not have the mission/

L83[21:00:27] <LunchBot> New text is: You did not have the mission report in triplicate, so you are arrested and sent to jail.

L85[21:30:11] <xxcoder> ;outcome add You wake up. Huh that was a dream?

L86[21:30:11] <LunchBot> Added outcome: You wake up. Huh that was a dream?

L87[21:50:08] <sandbox> !mission

L88[21:50:08] <LunchBot> Certainly! Here's your mission: SHODAN is horrified by your lack of ethics. (Also at your not being a machine)

L91[21:55:36] <Mat2ch> !mission

L92[21:55:36] <LunchBot> KSC staff swear too much on the job. Even centuries later, Kerbals pause in the street below your statue and remember your glorious deeds.

L93[21:55:54] <Mat2ch> It was glorious swearing!

L94[21:56:20] <xxcoder> or hero due to stopping all swearing 🤔

L95[22:00:32] <Mat2ch> Nobody likes the person who stops the swearing. We are talking about engineers here

L96[22:04:28] <raptop> !mission add You start up a Kyonshi Space Program as a way to deal with your death-induced astronaut shortages.

L97[22:04:28] <LunchBot> Added mission: You start up a Kyonshi Space Program as a way to deal with your death-induced astronaut shortages.

L98[22:04:45] <raptop> (Okay, jiangshi is more common as a spelling, but the requirements of K-syndrome...)

L99[22:06:39] <raptop> FLHerne: belatedly, I have read "The Clockwork Atom Bomb" and loved it

L100[22:06:59] <FLHerne> I thought you would

L101[22:07:10] <FLHerne> but I am glad you did

L102[22:09:29] <Mat2ch> That book is now on my reading list

L103[22:09:44] <Mat2ch> I'm currently reading Kundera though

L104[22:12:06] <FLHerne> it's only a short story

L105[22:15:21] <raptop> ^

L106[22:20:19] <Mat2ch> And there's a pdf... well, might read it tomorrow :)

L107[22:20:31] <Mat2ch> Until then: Have a good night y'all
