>Artemis II astronauts contact mission control to complain about Outlook

We have truly peaked as a species when even around the Moon, the common heritage of all humankind, Microsoft still causes problems

At hundreds of kilometres above the Earth, all our problems, like war, poverty, and hunger… Must look so small.

Except for the fact that there is Outlook (classic) and Outlook (new) and neither of them work. That problem is still close by.

Yes, cool, but even more cool IMNSHO is that I'm pretty sure we were able to do the yesteryear equivalent of this with voyager and modify the live code while it was still running…
