holy shit 17776 is absolute peak

looks like something is getting its flag icons from a random github pages site for some reason purecatamphetamine.github.io/country-flag...

A screenshot of the map view of the spaceflight simulation game Kitten Space Agency. There is a blue line which goes around the Earth in an eccentric orbit before making a loop around the Moon (or rather, where the Moon will be) before returning to Earth. (This line is generated by a mod based on the Artemis II orbital ephemeris published on the NASA website.) In the centre of the screen there is a marker labelled "Rocket", which is located at the current position of Artemis II within the Earth-Moon system (as of 2026-04-05 02:21:19 UTC). From the marker there is a green line (which turns into a light blue line after getting close to the moon). (This is KSA's prediction of Artemis II's future orbit, which doesn't quite match up with the real orbit in darker blue because of the approximation of orbital mechanics KSA uses.)

oh yeah here's Artemis II's full trajectory visualised in KSA (darker blue line)

Screenshot of the inside of a spacecraft cockpit in the game Kitten Space Agency. There are post-it notes on the inside of the cockpit, saying "moar boosters!!", "mow mow? -meow", "control stuff goes here -Banjo", and "RTX ON" with a drawing of a cat. A crescent Earth is visible in the distance from one of the cockpit windows.

i love the silly little post it notes in this game :3
(screenshot based on Artemis II's real-time position)

KSA's default moon orbit is based on 2025 data and isn't very accurate for tracking Artemis II, so I've added a custom system that uses up-to-date lunar orbit data.

Wanna experience Artemis II as if you were on orbit with the crew? Grab Kitten Space Agency and the mod OEM Loader, download the NASA orbital data and replay the mission in the game!
Awesome!

A screenshot of the spaceflight simulation game Kitten Space Agency in its map view. There are various complicated-looking gauges, buttons and windows around the edges. The focused window is titled "OemLoader 0.0.1-alpha+ffb34e0a6ece9d252a475c2fa9". In the middle of the screen, there is a zoomed out view of the Earth and the Moon. Near the Earth, there is a marking that says "Rocket", with the rocket's future trajectory (taking it around the moon) visible as a green line.

I AM HOLDING A LOVELY TRANS FLAG AND DECLARING THUS: HOORAY FOR MY NICE TRANS FRIENDS!!

chat is it a good sign that artemis ii is launching on april fools day

you need the one that says "Play CloverPit"
hope this helps 👍

PSA:

1. If you are not silly, it is vital you become silly

2. If you are silly, you must stay silly

2. If you used to be silly but have stopped, you must make all efforts to return to silliness

there's no way

6 word tragedy: "i want to replay outer wilds"

an ipv6 address with the host part highlighted the host part is ::3:3:3:3

ipv6 is better than ipv4 because you can put 4 colon threes in your address

that 1st on day 1 part 2 was because i decided on a whim to use goat resolve for part 1 which meant i had my entire did doc already in front of me for part 2

lmao i went from 3rd on day 3 part 1 (xxd'd the car file and copied the bit that looked like the code) to literally last place on part 2 (spent an hour looking through jacquard docs)

obviously A sizes aren't square, but I think the area is comparable to A-37

(the area of An paper is just 2^-n m^2)

the interpreter is written in lua, i'm not *that* crazy
the actual LaTeX package is mostly a bunch of \directlua

screenshot with a text editor and the PDF viewer. the text editor shows some LaTeX code: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{wasmtex} \begin{document} %\WASMTracingOn \WASMInstantiateFile{target/wasm32-unknown-unknown/release/tex_hello.wasm}{vm} \WASMCallExportedFunction{vm}{tex_hello}{42, 25} \end{document} the PDF viewer shows a LaTeX-generated document (the result of compiling the LaTeX code): "Hello LaTeX from Rust! 42 + 25 = 67"

rust + webassembly in a latex document for fun and absolutely no profit
