@izaya GURPS is the obvious answer, though there are probably systems more dedicated to hard SF settings

@izaya belatedly: you're looking for x and y (that is, a satellite or whatever's position in Cartesian coordinates), given a known orbit and time?so given M, a, e:b = a * sqrt(1-e^2)E requires numerical solution shenanigans involving M and e. I'd just have to look one up.At least per wikipedia:x = a*(cos(E)-e)y = b*sin(E)Alternatively, you can skip the whole semi-minor axis step (Fundamentals of Astrodynamics does so), and go withx = a*(cos(E)-e)y = a*sqrt(1-e^2)*sin(E)

@izaya I wonder how much of it is people just copying JRR Tolkien or Robert E Howard, without realizing that their works were explicitly set in a fantasy Europe

@yirggzmb I personally like Multiling O keyboard, mainly due to how silly I was able to get with customizing it. See eg: attached

@izaya If there's no RSS feed, is it even a blog? (I mean, github / Jekyll has pretty much out of the box support…)

It's all fun and games until your package gets stuck in JZRO for processing

@izaya Backyard observatory, especially since you can just buy a 1 meter telescope from Planewave.

@whitequark Mostly accessible meme aside from being domain-specific.

@izaya What frequency, what hours of operation, and what's coverage area like?(I'd consider fares maybe priority 6 after those 3 things, qualify of wayfinding information/maps/timeables/apps, and vehicle speed.)

@izaya bleaghI *hope* it's just from sleeping poorly, though my mental and physical health seems a bit off today.

@izaya typically a cup of yogurt (and a concerningly large amount of black coffee). Historically I've sometimes also had an apple.
