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.

#okay wow yeah that IS impressive #NASA

“There’s no time to lose”, I heard her say Catch your dreams before they run away Dying all the time Lose your dreams and you might lose your mind

#I have now also heard Big Country's cover of this song and...nope. this is still Melanie's god damn song. LOL #speaking of...I still can't believe I never got to see Melanie live. :'( one year I considered seeing her...I think it was in 2020 :/

I kept forgetting that Big Country covered this song, and ever since I discovered that they covered it, I've been afraid to hear it, anyway, because "Down on the Corner" is my FAVORITE CCR song, but I have to say...I HAVE to say: I WISH STUART WOULD'VE JUST SOUNDED LIKE HIMSELF, FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING GOOD (how about - a good cover? Yeah? Please?! HELLO?). Because musically I love this cover - it's not wildly different from the original, but it's got a different flavor enough that it's still enjoyable (like the original) - and I would have loved it wholly if Stuart didn't start singing and sounding TOO MUCH like John Fogerty. Anyone covering a song should NOT sound - if possible - AT ALL like the original song/singer, because then it's not a worthy cover. I could just listen to the original? What makes a cover better if it doesn't sound different enough from the original? NOT. MUCH. So...I like this cover, because musically I love it, but vocally, I wish I could say "Try again, please...". :(

I don't know what this is, but it isn't brave. 😂😅

Obviously this thing is about West and Eric, but I'd just like to add that West's bestie Len is like 'Yes, I'm proudly the straightest man in this gay bar and I will END UP TALKING WITH ALL OF YOU BEFORE I LEAVE!' because he's a social butterfly. And West is like 'smh, gotta love that man (no homo)'. Except, for West...maybe homo, just not with Len. Although you are missing out on earlier context that might contradict this but I will NOT be posting that - sorry! They contain multitudes.

There is the stupidest description of my writing, you're welcome. ...Not the stupidest that I've ever said or given, but give me time.

#anyway...if you're wondering. if ANYONE reads this...I will admit. this is my wth. ...hence the overlay sorry. #I'm still not saying what wth means except it does not mean 'what the heck/hell' though I think that in my mind every time I type it

im noticing that for a lot of americans “free palestine” has been an ideological motto and symbol rather than them actually believing in their heart that freedom is attainable and necessary

Since I don't own Little Rope by Sleater-Kinney in any format, apparently every time I remember that "Say It Like You Mean It" exists, I automatically put it on repeat, without thinking about it. Which is fine, because I enjoy it every time it plays. :')

#I impulsively decided to buy the ''No Bitter Endings'' sweatshirt in S-K's online store today (a bunch of their clothes and Little Rope #merch is on saaaaaale!! btw!! not a huge sale though but decent) and I'm so excited to get it and to wear it alllllllllll the time! #I already wear my S-K hoodie to work a lot but I hope the kids are now particularly willing to know me as the Sleater-Kinney lady. :) #and as I was looking in their merch store...since it's my birthday on Saturday I was like 'well I love almost all of Little Rope so... #I might as well get the cool as shit metallic gold vinyl of Little Rope too right?' :D I WILL HAVE...NO REGRETS. seriously. :') #crystal visions of lilies in the valley

#the riff in this song is soooooooooooo insane and I randomly got it stuck in my head #I rarely listen to this song (unless I listen to 'Bricks Are Heavy' since I have it on vinyl) #but I managed to guess that this was the song based on the riff that got stuck in my head alone my first try #like it'd be a lot easier to remember what songs are what if you can remember lyrics or titles...I could only think of the riff at first! #L7 #grunge #punk rock #music

April on top of being Arab American heritage month is also GENOCIDE AWARENESS MONTH. sixth going into seventh month of this genocide, 76 years of occupation, and the biden administration actively sending arms to the iof (namely, thousands of 2000-pound bombs that literally make craters in the ground and are banned from use in any western military because of its potential for civilian casualties) while endorsing the u.s.’ continued support for israel defending itself. when will you learn compassion? when will you stop endorsing biden for another term?

I feel accomplished because this week while I was at work during my free period, I wrote apparently about three pages worth of dialogue that I'd left in my WIP as "[insert more dialogue here later]" and I was able to tie it in to the rest of it (as in, what I'd already written after the "[insert more dialogue here"]), and while there are still places in my WIP where I was like "[add something else specific here?]" it means I'm done with that first...whatever it is, of my current WIP. (I still haven't decided if I'm writing just, like, individual parts of this WIP, or if they're chapters, or what. Most of them are super fucking long so I have NO IDEA what to call them. To call them chapters doesn't seem accurate given how long they are, so...parts?! I GUESS?! I'm not writing a novel, but I've also never written a novel before anyway and it shows.)

#when I'm lonely in a world of my own #WOW I have 31 pages of some very self-indulgent bullshit I'll never share with anyone! #er sorry that's 31 pages of the first...part or whatever it is. I've written at least 50 pages of other chapters/parts/ #scenes and other stuff that happen well after this first part/whatever it is. LOL #but then again there is a gap of over a year (in story) after this first part/whatever and the next chapters/parts/whatevers. so... #I keep thinking about sharing some of it here under a self-conscious 'keep reading' but I've been re-reading it since I finished it #last night and I'm probably being way too critical but I'm also like 'this is too self-indulgent. no one would even want to read this.' lma #(bless you if you think you do want to read it. but I can assure you that you do not. but maybe I'll be brave...I just won't say when...)
