While I'm no fan of wasteful NASA spending, it feels wrong to explore for profit rather than curiosity.

Seeing this kind of abandoned equipment really fuels the imagination.

What if it was actually aliens, or some secret cabal planning to use it for rogue space wars, and just renting the space from the soviets? Maybe a leader like Khan Noonien Singh and his followers actually launched themselves on a sleeper ship undetected, with plans to return in 20 more years and defeat us all? What did that last person leaving think on his way out, tuning off the lights, knowing he wouldn't be back tomorrow?

I miss Adobe Image Ready and Macromedia Freehand. And Macromedia in general. And buying software, instead of this crazy rent-to-pay model.

As far as big box bookstores, I miss Borders too. Don't care for Barnes & Noble for some reason. Borders just felt...better.

Great observations. That always felt like part of what was missing in other libraries. Sometimes just drawing a triangle was a long process that felt kind of hacky.

This looks very cool, and stuffed with all sorts of goodies and power!

Hope it doesn't fade away like http://mojs.io or other web animation/graphics libraries.

AVERAGE!
