The silly little tech week urge to work on all of my wips when I literally have zero time

My gender is wanting Alfie Solomons to give me a bear hug and tell me I'm safe and then a lil slap on the side of the head and tell me to man up

so idk if any of ya'll knew but apparently Voyager 1 has been out of contact with nasa for the past five months and contact has only just been reestablished! it takes 22.5 hours to send messages to Voyager 1 and another 22.5 to receive messages back. this little machine has been telling us about instellar space (space between systems) for years now and a chip responsible for sending the data packages stopped working so nasa scientists figured a work around that actually managed to work and now, now little Voyager 1 is going to be able to talk to us again.

like i'm so genuinely happy about this and like we really are the generation that fell in love with little robot explorers aren't we

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.

Trope of the day is the parent by accident aka accidental child acquisition. Somehow someone who didn't and maybe shouldn't have kids before, acquires a child or at least a younger person, who's just not leaving anymore. Suddenly they are responsible for some little idiot's well-being - and they're unexpectedly great at it.

Random Polish!Ice brainrot

Ice who grows up making Pierogi following a recipe card hand written by his great grandmother that makes enough to feed a small army

Ice who after joining the Navy doesn't have the time/money/even enough people to eat all of those pierogi so he learns to pare down the recipe to be just a few servings worth, and enlisting Slider in the long tedious cooking process.

Ice who, after he and Mav take in Bradley, makes the same pared down recipe, and teaches little Bradley how to fill and seal each Pierogi perfectly, (meanwhile mav still struggles to get it right and produces lumpy results)

Ice who makes pierogi again for roosters first dinner back at home after everything, and when roo gets there early (bc he is his fathers son) he's immediately pulled back into the assembly line they'd established so long ago

Ice who realizes that now that the daggers are also practically his kids that he can make the whole recipe again, without cutting it down. Ice who puts all the daggers through a mini pierogi making bootcamp so that they all can help out.

(It turns out that Rooster, Bob, Harvard, Coyote, Halo and Omaha master filling and sealing really easily, so their left doing that while Phoenix, Fritz, and Yale roll out dough and cut out disks of it. Fanboys pierogi are still a little misshapen but he's determined to get it right. Payback takes trays of finished pierogi back to where Ice stands in front of the stove top, ready to blanch them.)

(Hangman and Mav sit out, Hangman because "really pops it's too many cooks in the kitchen, I won't be much help" and Mav because "I was on active duty in the pierogi wars for how many years now? I am officially retired now that the reinforcements are here) (they sneak into the kitchen after dinner and bake a pretty mean dessert, so they're still contributing)

Tell me why I just found out (some four months after it got sent off to my colleges) that in his letter of recommendation one of my teachers talked in length about the incident in which I told him that he had the moral backbone of a chocolate eclair-

SIR IM TRYING TO LOOK RESPECTABLE HERE

[teddy06]

my day is going terrible sadly, how is your day going?

Oh that's not good :(

Mines been overall mediocre

I joined a spontaneous eclipse viewing party in my school parking lot with half the drama club and two of the principals so that was cool

But now we're choreographing the finale of our spring musical, and I have a migraine and the big rehearsal speaker (Burt) is not helping :(

I hope your day gets better
