    News COVID-19 pandemic

    And Moscow is finally on a full quarantine. Apparently they didn't like that people went out doing barbecue once the vacation week was announced instead of staying at home.

    I don't see how that is a thing. What is the link there?

    News COVID-19 pandemic

    The mild infections theory does not seem to add up well with successful quarantine measures in places like South Korea. They used contact tracking to get everyone infected under quarantine, and if there were 300 times the infection, then they should have seen new cases pop up at random in...

    I wonder why is there so little deaths in Germany compared to Spain, both got the same number of cases, no?

    Kinda not really, considering the history of SARS vaccine. Hopefully they learned something since then.

    Are all the COVID cases getting sent to a few hospitals, or spread evenly across all of them?

    Why can't it work with a graphics client using a modern SDK?

    Interesting. I thought PAL and SECAM were similar and or compatible, since TVs over here offered "PAL/SECAM" and "NTSC" tuning.

    Launch News Flat Earther "Mad" Mike Hughes dies in crash of homemade rocket

    Try reading Inhabited Island by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky. It's set on a planet where the atmosphere is refractive enough to make the ships appear to rise up into the air, so the natives thought the world was a cavity in the endless solid. Also, it's a great book and a classic on this side of...

    Launch News Flat Earther "Mad" Mike Hughes dies in crash of homemade rocket

    Well, he was a daredevil. I want to think he just pretended to be flat-earther, in order to milk the conspiracy guys to fund his hobby. Guess unmanned wasn't fun enough... RIP.

    General Question How is Kerbal more famous than Orbiter.

    Really? I thought these were only a problem back in the day because Meshland/Orules and derivatives couldn't access the physics engine.

    Gaming Space Engineers (now in BETA)

    Try Escape From Mars. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1653185489 It's an interesting departure from the open world resource utopia - you can't refine ores and you have to unlock tech, all while fighting for your life and robbing convoys.

    General Question Does anyone know a farther zoom in mod?

    Do note that TelescopeMFD is Orbiter-version-bound, since it uses memory hacking to do the deed. I think the latest one was for O2010P1.

    Over here it's known as a Totem Flu. Some obscure disease spikes in China, media panic, nothingburger, repeat a couple years later. Let's hope the pattern continues, since this time looks rather big.

    That sounds a lot harder than porting a single DOS game. I actually did the latter, with SimEarth, which involved fusing it with an 80186 emulator, making a crude decompiler and rewriting about 10% of it's code, parts that handled all the interactions with the external world - graphics, files...

    Well, so far the ones people missed had been refurbished, remade, remastered or recompiled to Steam. However, there are plenty of games most people aren't going to miss individually that are in aggregate missed by a lot of people.

    I wonder how long before the earlier Windows games would migrate into the emulation domain, like DOS did with DOSBox.
