Should be "paid me". I see this so frequently on HN, is this how it is taught in school now?

The fingerprint reader doesn't work most of the time. Either it doesn't appear at all, or it's completely unresponsive.

We have telescope technology to thank. The quality and the number of telescopes is constantly increasing. We don't just look in the sky any more, we watch the same spot over time and look for changes. We are seeing more spots, more time, and more changes. An investment in telescopes is an investment in physics.

Most people I know were, and still are, pretty excited about Spirit and Opportunity. Those were exciting robots at the time. Especially the fact that they worked for so long! 14 YEARS. The design is validated, let's have an assembly line cranking them out and tweaking them.

I love that fact that there are "usual procedures" when it comes to humans going back and forth to our 20-year-old SPACE STATION!

Maybe we don't have the space program of our dreams. But we've certainly accomplished the goal of having "routine" operations in space over a long period of time. How much have humans learned in that time!

It could even be a gzip bomb

I had a Datasette. It was expensive at the time, and it was amazing that it worked at all. You could put one of the C64 tapes into your boom box and play them, and hear a series of unpleasant screeches and whoops.
