@astro_jcm Unrelated but still funny when I think about that they use "Thumbs Up" into the camera instead of replying to CapCom by voice. (But rather related to "hands free" than to technical problems.)

@astro_jcm Will they have to use ICQ?

PSA in case this gets traction: if you liked the movie, then do yourself a favour and read 'Story of your life', the novella by Ted Chiang on which the movie is based. Or anything by Ted Chiang, really; he's a phenomenal #scifi writer. He has published two collections of short stories: 'Stories of your life and others' (which includes the aforementioned novella) and 'Exhalation'.

@astro_jcm I read both collections of short stories, probably after you recommended them on a previous occasion. I loved them!

@jfg_astro Glad you liked them! You might want to try Greg Egan's short stories then. I recently finished his 'Axiomatic' collection and loved it.

[jfg_astro@fediscience.org]

@astro_jcm I’ve already read them and like them too! Thanks!

[vicgrinberg@mastodon.social]

@astro_jcm @jfg_astro Egan is absolutely amazing! (And also on mastodon for those interested...)

[jfg_astro@fediscience.org]

@vicgrinberg @astro_jcm I follow him! And thus found out about more of his work, now on my to-read list!
