When playing baseball, you calculate the Delta-V you need to give the ball to hit a home run.

Guilty. Kinda. I sometimes go on here from my PSP.
When I "borrowed" my father's PSP (didn't have an iPod at the time [Do now!] I did that nightly. The PSP realy sucks for web browsing...)
When you crash or spin uncontrollably and restart Orbiter to redo what you've done
That's not the sign of addiction, that's just the sign that you actualy want to do something properly. I'm not very good at Orbiter (just very active on the forums, I suppose), so I do that a lot. And I mean A LOT.
When you sleep and dream about orbiter and about creating orbiter addons
Sign of a fertile imagination!
:rofl:
Honestly, I'd be happy if I could just get an open-source pdf reader for my Blackberry so I could pull up spacecraft manuals instead of alt-tabbing...
Hey, that gives me an idea! iPods have a notes funtion, where you go into the extras tab and select notes. If you have any text files in the Notes folder on your iPod (refer to the features guide on the Apple site for more info), you can read them!
Oh, my, god, I just had a brain wave. Let's all go to :hooters:!
Better idea! Converting each page of the manuals into jpegs! YES! Then I'll be able to VIEW THEM ON MY IPOD!
Finaly, a good idea. My family has been trying for generations, you know. It all started with my great-great-great uncle Baldric, who thought that if you owned the bullet with your name on it, you wouln't get shot...
Hmmm....wonder if I could use OIPC to get my Blackberry to communicate with Orbiter via the USB cable so I could display an external MFD on it...... (I think this also qualifies as a sign of the aforementioned addiction... LOL)
That, my friend, is... Brilliant!
Now, I wonder if I hack my iPod to controll iTunes, so I don't need to alt-tab every time I want to change songs...
guilty...dont know how that pretains to an addiction but..some of my own:
...when your driving on the freeway and attempt to sync with the nearest semi
Isn't that suicidal? As in, getting crushed underneath the tires?
Then again, if you mean driving into the back of an open semi, then the casual observer could mistake you for a Bond, Spy Hunter, or Knight Rider fan.
...when your BBQ'ing on your grill for 3 hours (or so as the recipie calls for) and yelling "Main Engine cutoff, burn complete" when the timer goes off. Guilty.
Guilty!
