@chef, is the ProtoLoaf supposed to be this red?
Yes, it’s well known that the color of food changes its perceived flavor. It’s a cost effective way of upgrading the galley experience, so I’ve been experimenting with different shades.
How does your ProtoLoaf taste? Would you recommend it to your shipmates?
I refuse to indulge this madness.
Well, I like mine.
Of course you would.

Hey @soomin, nutrient distribution in Bay 3 is doing something weird. Flow rates are inconsistent even though pumps check out fine.
Pressure’s oscillating between 220 and 320 kPa every 90 seconds or so.
Resonance. Check valves.
Oh. Yeah, that makes sense. Let me check.
Yup, valve cycles 88 seconds. That would do it, right?
Probably. Just offset.
Got it. Thanks.
I wouldn’t have thought of that. I was about to start tearing apart pumps.
Pumps are fine.
Yeah. They are.
Oh, while I have you … the new tomato cultivars are getting more light than they need. Integration with lighting is off. Can I get something more granular than the current presets?
Give me twenty.
Check your pad.
Oh! That’s exactly what I want. This is perfect.
Thank you Soo. You’re amazing.
Sure.
You’re OK with me calling you Soo, right?
Captain does.
That’s not a yes.
Yes.

@murat Do you have a moment? I need to set up an airgapped partition for some client work.
What level of isolation are we talking about?
ISQ-5
Heh, ISQ-5’s a racket. The only reason that thing exists is that someone told the QSCorp chairman that the only thing that wasn’t accounted for in ISQ-4 was time-traveling space wizards, so he staffed an entire division on addressing just that.
All the same, I have contractual obligations.
OK, let’s see what we can do. You have time to go over the specs right now? I can meet you in the Aft Engineering Ring fab in 30. It’s in the Ventral Quadrant.
Yes, thank you. I’ll be there in 30.

@ship, do we have any spare thermals or jackets lying around?
There is a box of Wandertaube outerwear acquired by Louis Jones for merchandising purposes in storage: Pod 1, Container CH34JZL.
Thanks.
I know. Don’t mess them up. I’m trying to get a refund.
