Insofar as the word "dark" being used to imply "mysterious" or "obscured from sight" it can still be valid.

My friend, the whole point of these missions is to test and refine the equipment engineered specifically for transporting humans to the moon.

Ah, thanks for the formatting issues, Slashdot.

We have achieved in the last [less than] 60 years what humanity could not even imagine in the last [greater than] 150,000 years *

We have achieved in the last 150,000 years, but "how has this moved humanity ahead?"

Human minds have engineered the farthest manned voyage into space in history.
Human eyes directly observed lunar details for the first time in history.
This is the beginning of an earnest effort to build a station for long term human habitation of the moon.
All of humankind is able to witness these things happening in real time via YouTube.

The whole fucking MAGA cult has their panties tied up in a tight little bunch. "DEI" and "wokeness" and all that. Ignoring the eminent qualifications of these astronauts.

Truthfully I think NASA is enjoying a little bit of trolling.

That's one way to broadcast ignorance of the Artemis Program

They haven't even been given clearance yet to leave the Earth's orbit, and proceed toward the lunar rendeveous, as of this writing.

I have found the experience more enjoyable lately. Fewer people at the showing means it's easier to find good seating and be spaced apart from the rest of the audience. Generally less likelihood of talkers, people unwrapping candy, and that farting lady who used to laugh like Roseanne at every goddamn scene. Seriously, fuck that lady.

They'll blame whoever Trump tells them to blame.

Is anyone interested enough to run Linux on ARM64 dumb enough to want this?

His tenure has overseen a high percentage of my headaches and profanity laden curses and rants directed at Adobe during my years as a sysadmin.

It's all relative.

People on Reddit like to bitch and moan about Apple's recent UI flubs (and by "recent', I mean the last 4 years or so) and Tahoe is probably the worst and most misguided abortion of Apple's once celebrated standards. But once you decide to move on with your life they quickly become easy to ignore. It still works just fine.

There's a reason he cited Apple II as an example. You might be alarmed to learn how much legacy code - decades old - is still run on equally aged hardware in production. Perhaps not on Apple II, but a recent example I saw was a rack of PDP-9's still in control of machinery at an observatory.

Then they're in luck, there's a USB3 port on the laptop.
