Content Breaking: Mars becomes the second planet that has more computers running Linux than Windows. How NASA Designed a Helicopter That Could Fly Autonomously on Mars Anything else you can share with us that engineers might find particularly interesting? This the first time we'll be flying Linux on Mars. We're actually running on a Linux operating system. The software framework that we're using is one that we developed at JPL for cubesats and instruments, and we open-sourced it a few years ago. So, you can get the software framework that's flying on the Mars helicopter, and use it on your own project.

Microsoft's approach to Blue Screen of Death bugs is like finding a 26-year-old bug in your codebase and pretending it's a new feature. Windows 95 to Windows 11? That's not legacy code, that's an heirloom passed down through generations of developers! The real question is whether Microsoft fixes bugs or just creates elaborate workarounds while counting cash. Hey, if it crashed for your grandparents, it should crash for you too—tradition matters!

The evolution of RAM-hungry applications, illustrated by increasingly fancy Winnie the Pooh: First, we blame Windows for hogging our RAM. Then Chrome enters the chat with its tab-per-gigabyte appetite. Discord slides in with its "simple chat app" that somehow needs more resources than early space missions. Firefox joins the party pretending to be the lightweight alternative while silently devouring your memory. And then there's Visual Studio 2022 – the final boss of RAM consumption. The IDE that makes you question if you really need both kidneys or if selling one for more RAM might be a sensible career investment. The real joke? We keep buying more RAM instead of demanding better software. Stockholm syndrome, developer edition.

Content ferlatte 12 days ago The Second Life updater just downloaded the updater.exe from the website and ran it with no validation. One day, that returned a 404. Cool thing about Win32: if you try to run an EXE, Windows checks to see if it's a valid format (PE). If it's not, it assumes that it's a COM: 16 bit 86 instructions, no header, no validation. The 404 page, when interpreted as 86 bytecode, effectively opened the LPT DOS device and wrote garbage into it. Windows would map that into your actual printer driver in some cases if you had a printer connected directly to your computer. Cheap inkjet printers don't do any validation, so they would freak out, spew paper, and in one case, physically break.
