Panromantic/Asexual Mostly a shitty dragon age blog. Other games included as well.Honestly it's just a shitty blog I just reblog and gush about video gamesIcon made by my really awesome friend mypunkpansexualtwin.
Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1
The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.
So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.
So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.
Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.
And the probe is working again.
From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.
somewhere lost in the clouded annals of history lies a place that few have seen, a mysterious place called the unknown, where long-forgotten stories are revealed to those who travel through the wood…

Whenever I go through Wither's tomb, I usually have Gale pick up and interact with the Book of Dead Gods cause he usually has an easier time with the roll to unlock the book.
But he rolled a nat 1 and failed his arcana check spectacularly, then immediately rolled a nat 20 on the strength check to pound the lock with his bare fists. Had a little bit of wizard rage there, I think.
