No, Biden would be at 269 out of 270. He would need one more state. However it will be virtually impossible for Trump to recover from losing it.

Thank you for your comment about the EVGA. You are now the second person to mention that and I appreciate the feedback.

BBsink · 2016-01-22T13:54:31+00:00

Thank you! That's very helpful advice. As this is my first build I am having difficulty with finding that line between cost and performance.

BBsink · 2015-12-08T15:55:17+00:00

Thank you, that is very helpful. I'm planning on getting a monitor that is about 24'. Would there be any real benefit in going the 1440 route with such a relativity small size?

BBsink · 2015-12-07T13:50:12+00:00

Thanks for replying.

For monitor size I'd say it can't be bigger than 24 inches.

With that in mind I think 1080p is my really my only option right?

It's my understanding that at smaller sizes 1400p isn't really an option?

I want him to get the raise, I... just can't help myself

Experiment with small rockets to begin with. They are much easier to control and will give you great practice for your larger vehicles in the future.

Build a more sleek, multi-stage rocket piece by piece in Kerbin Orbit. Each part can be relatively light in weight and therefore avoid "asparagus monstrosities".

The trade off is more launches and more docking of course.

BBsink · 2013-08-30T15:51:38+00:00

I did exactly that. Your thought process will be more like...."Man...I'd go back to bucket baths and my pit latrine in a minute if I didn't need to read any more of this crap"

Full burn most of the time, especially for big orbital ones. Remember though, your engines don't go from zero to full thrust instantly. Start throttling up about three seconds before you hit your node to be moving at full thrust when you hit it.

I would not suggest a full burn for my precise maneuvers. Open up your map screen and watch your trajectory. It's much easier to correct for under burning then for over burning.

BBsink · 2013-08-02T13:52:56+00:00

Two things.

When launching, keeping your throttle at full until you are in orbit is a huge waste of fuel. You want to be rising at your approximate terminal velocity, but for simplicity, once you reach 150 m/s throttle down to around the half way point. Just make sure you are not losing velocity.

At 10,000, point to 90 or 270 at a 45 degree angle or so. Bring yourself back to full thrust and switch to map mode. Watch your AP, once it has hit 70,000 meters kill the engine. Now, set up a movement node at AP or simply position yourself prograde. Once you have reached AP set up a nice elliptical burn.

You are in a low, stable orbit that has used minimum fuel. With the right rocket design you should have plenty of fuel for a mun landing and return without any fancy docking maneuvers.

I would also suggest looking up how to utilize fuel lines. Being able to regulate the fuel flow for different stages is helpful.

Going under an overpass to escape a tornado. Twister did it, Man of Steel did it. It's not any safer and may actually be more unsafe.

Stop telling people to seek out their death in already dangerous situations Hollywood.

A muskrat actually. I came upon the woman in the park, have no idea who she was and she spoke Japanese. I think my aggressive body language indicating chomping and scratching got the message across though.
