Is there something comfier than being in the center of the universe?

Bumpoo

The universe is unfathomably large and, if it can even be said to have a center, it is highly improbable that Earth is anywhere near it

I like that web app that they have on the main screen.

>>55200659
earth is at the center of the observable universe

>>55200659
I didn't mean it literally. It's what that room in JPL is called, cause you've got data coming in from all the space

>>55200664
Nice never knew this existed.

>>55200680
yes, from the perspective of citizens of earth

>>55200680
This is true for any point in the universe tho.

>>55200459
>center of the universe
There is no such thing.

>not running the program from Soyuz on your old DOS machine

>What's inpu?

inpu is the software used by the popular soviet (and russian) Soyuz spacecraft (http://youtu.be/LTflOstC1Ec?t=4m46s). This is the training version for cosmonauts but essentially the same software. This version is from 2002, but newer versions most likely exist and yes, it's also featured in Gravity.

>How to get it running

Not everyone gets to visit the place from downstairs... Public tours only take you on the top deck

And yep that guy really worked. He was commanding for about 2.5 hrs

I think it's pretty amazing we still get data from Voyager considering how old and far away it is

>>55201106
If you believe that sort of thing, I have a bug free and 100% safe operating system I want you to buy.

>>55201017
Because they both are CDE.

It used to feel like you were at the centre of the world with the amount of information constantly flowing in. Feels like leaving was a mistake now.

I had a roommate like that. He was pulling some decent cash. Do you think that it is something that anyone can get into?

What software did you use to show the stocks (or whatever prop trading is)?
I want something cool looking to throw up on my third monitor for people to look at and think I'm cool, I don't even care whether or not I know how to use it.

>>55203099

gotta ping 'em all
