The Processor Has Finally Been Found!

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.

Ah, the digital rain that convinced an entire generation of developers they were hackers just by changing their desktop background. Nothing says "I understand binary" like staring at incomprehensible green characters while your CPU struggles to render Minesweeper. Back when we all thought knowing HTML made us Neo, but in reality, we were just Agent Smith clones copying and pasting from StackOverflow before StackOverflow existed. The only pill we were taking was caffeine to stay awake debugging our 500-line "Hello World" programs. Free your mind? More like "free up some RAM so Windows 98 doesn't crash again."

Shocking revelation: computers don't work when they're still in their boxes. Revolutionary concept, I know. Next up: why your car won't start when the engine is sitting in your garage separate from the chassis. The irony of having $3000+ worth of high-end components—RTX 4070, AMD CPU, fancy SSD—all neatly packaged while wondering why your digital powerhouse refuses to boot. Have you tried, I don't know... assembling it first? Pro tip: Computer parts work significantly better when not imprisoned in cardboard and plastic. The magic happens when you free them from their retail chains and connect them together. Revolutionary, I know.

Gaming on PC means your wallet gets hunted more effectively than any monster in The Witcher. That -90% discount is the real magic spell here. Console gamers pay full price while PC gamers wait for Steam sales to transform $55 games into $5 impulse buys. The real monster slayer isn't Geralt - it's your empty bank account after you've bought 47 games you'll "definitely play someday." Truly the most dangerous prophecy of all.
