Spacecraft Crashes Into Satellite
Juha-Matti Laurio writes "A robotic NASA spacecraft designed to rendezvous with an orbiting satellite instead crashed into its target. Unbeknownst to engineers at the time, DART's main sensor mistakenly believed it was flying away from the satellite when it was actually moving 5 feet per second toward it, investigators found."

Oops! I took down email servers down on three contintents due to a DNS error back in the day. Oops! For the curious it was a contract job for for a division of a large Japanese company, and there was some confusion on resposibilities for the DNS servers However, they like real apologies when someone screws up. They were actually planning to have me go on a corporate jet to Japan to apologize profusely to the company CEO. My boss told them to go do something very difficult to themselves. American arrogance at its best!

You'd think that a self-professed grammar fascist would know when to use 'queue' and when to use 'cue'.
Don't drag me into your petty squabbles.
This was on the AP wire on Monday. I understand that Slashdot isn't a "late breaking news" oriented site but ... this story is stale, anybody who'd be interested in it has most likely already heard about it. But, since I don't really understand the criteria for when and what stories are selected for linking on Slashdot, I can't really give any constructive feedback on how to improve the process. So I'm just going to bitch about it.

That'd require /. to stop pinching their stories a day late. ;)
Now we all know where that ball is.
I thought it was another way of saying "Nice shoes."
Or as certain members of today's youth would put it: OMG!!!1 LOL @ team kill!!
