    Sara Seager Retweeted Jim Al-Khalili

    I also walked out and am trying to book the next flight out of #starmus. A few days of insults and other related was enough!https://twitter.com/jimalkhalili/status/877546191763984384 …

    First poor session of #Starmus: all-male panel, then one says he wanted Siri to have a male voice because he trusts it more. I walked out.

        Chris Pissarades said about Siri's voice "I chose a man, because I trust the voice of a man more." I happen to have a recording of it.

        if you can you should stay and stand up to the bigotry! The more people that say no to this attitude... The sooner things will change 💪👏

        Good sentiment but we can't keep up with "saying no to this attitude". Sometimes you just have to walk out of the room.

      What do you mean "few days of insults and other related"? Chris' comment was disgusting, but you are seemingly blaming the festival itself
