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.

Its obvious to me when people who post about canaries in mines have never met a canary. Like yeah the miners had a special device to revive the canary because canaries are one of the most adorable creatures on the planet and they make adorable little chirping sounds and honestly probably loved the sounds of machinery and people talking so it was probably loud and friendly with the workers. Whatever though maybe meet a canary sometime and youd understand

Satan is weak. He can't create anything only manipulate what's already there which is done primarily through, bargaining, tempting, and politely trying to rationalize poor behavior to you.

The worst part is, you'll receive many things you want and then soon realize it's not enough and you want more.

as a protestant there’s some pretty crummy portrayals of protestants in media but honestly i get sooooo angry on behalf of catholics for all the horror movies revolving around nuns and priests and the catholic church specifically. like. LEAVE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST ALONE. STOP BLASPHEMING THINGS THEY CARE ABOUT
