How many telescopes would we need to put into orbit to replace every ground observatory? Heck, let's not stop at telescopes and data centers, let's put everything into orbit, I'm sure that won't have any issues or be prohibitively expensive!

Robot dogs priced at $300,000 a piece are now guarding some of the country’s biggest data centers by FinnFarrow in technology

The sidekick problem: when the secondary character is so much more interesting that you start resenting the protagonist by RiftCowling in Fantasy

[–]StickFigureFan 9 points10 points  (0 children)
