It's there if your userland is new enough, but I don't know how much it actually does.
I've been running btrfs on my workstation for a while now and have not had any issues with its stability. I still wouldn't run it without regular backups, though.
Not just that, fan subbing tends to be pretty bad. Leaving in honoriffics, just not translating some words, etc
This is precisely why I tend to prefer fansubs. Most professional translations are less precise because they need to target more casual viewers, who would be confused more often than not by untranslated idioms. Compare to fansubs, which generally target an audience which is more savvy with the language, so leaving certain idioms untranslated allows the viewer to pick up on certain nuances which would otherwise be lost. It's a similar case for honorifics, since they can encode small amounts of additional information that might be otherwise lost or be harder to pick up on.
There's something to be said for going ahead and translating everything since the original language is still there in the audio track, but I think it makes more sense to put everything in the subtitle track, as it may be difficult to follow dialog in both audio and subtitles. Even then, style varies greatly between fansubbers. Some prefer to take the more accessible approach, while others tend to leave idioms untranslated.
Casio calculators provide some programmability. There's an official SDK for the FX-9750, and unofficial support for writing your own programs on the newest FX-CG is in progress.
TI's own response to that development was the Nspire CX, which basically adds a color screen to the device without addressing any other complaints.
I'm with you that we need bigger space-based telescopes, but I don't think building more in orbit is the best solution.
Given the raw material possibilities presented by lunar regolith, I could see the energy cost of moving some materials to the far side of the moon being well offset by the lower amount of materials that must be shunted up there by rocket.
We may not have the requisite technologies to set up a lunar optical observatory right now, but I'm confident the technologies could be developed fairly quickly, given a concerted effort.
Basically the best use for it is to expand the memory of the calculator by a good hundredfold. Of course, a hardware mod with putting the innards of a flash drive in the calculator and soldering the connections to the internal USB port would be even better.

True enough. It's been mentioned, but it requires some precision soldering due to the proximity of the pins within the calculator.
And the project has been around for even longer that that. It's still a great achievement.
