Today is the 50th anniversary of the Skylab "strike." Astronauts protested micromanagement, employer spying, & long hours. They demanded a day off, regular breaks, and greater workplace autonomy. Radios off, they floated around, enjoying space, and taking photos of Earth. #NASA gave in to their demands after one day.
Edit:
"Strike or no strike, the tensions between the crew and ground control were real. A crisis meeting between the two parties was called on 30 December." -BBC

Remember when cheap, Chinese knock-off consoles were the weird things you saw in markets that were far more likely to catch on fire than provide a decent gaming experience?
Well, erm, that seems to be no longer necessarily the case.
This is the #MiyooMiniPlus, a Chinese #Linux powered handheld that runs #RetroArch to emulate up to PS1 era games.
And it is so well done! The unit feels sturdy, the emulation is mostly solid and the screen is brilliant!
