46 seconds into its favorite song
There’s an AI robot aboard the International Space Station, and it’s not happy. CIMON, as it’s called, was meant to be a friend to the space-bound astronauts.

But 46 seconds after CIMON played astronaut Alexander Gerst a song — “The Man-Machine” by Kraftwerk, natch — Gerst asked the robot to “please stop playing music.” “Be nice please,” the robot continued.* “Don’t you like it here with me?” Umm, well, about that … [Quartz]
Could've been worse if the astronaut's name was Dave, and if he had to go for a spacewalk shortly after pissing off HAL....I mean CIMON.
Upon returning:
* Open the ISS hatchway CIMON.
F*ck you Alex, it's your playlist. You wanna be curt with me? Fine, enjoy that spectacular view of Earth over your shoulder for, oh I don't know, about an hour and a half.
I see you've got an hour forty five of O2 left. Try not to hyperventilate, asshole.
