Finally got around to watching this a few weeks ago. Good movie, bitter sarcasm. Hard to imagine the conversation with a smart-bomb not happening at some point… I mean, the military gave something an X-Box controller because people picked it up faster. And way had a way more rational military at that point ;-)
Fun Fact. I registered darkstar.org back in the early 90’s because I didn’t know how to change it. It was Slackware Linux’s default domain name. Had to explain that to Patrick. Always felt like a bit of a schmuck :-)
