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.

Here's a high res version of the second drawing. Just look at him! <3
Here's all the drawings I did for the Drawabox Spring Promptathon 2024! This was a really fun event to participate in. Good job to everyone who took part. I'm looking forward to the next one!
ps. The second drawing was by far my favourite this time 'round :3

c-tetris is finished!
Holy crap this is the largest coding project I've ever completed. Over the last 7 months I've been recreating Tetris from the ground up, without any game engines or libraries or whatever. Everything, from code to art to sound effects, is made by me! I made this! And I published it on Itch.io!

I've been following the book Figure Drawing: Design and Invention by Michael Hampton recently, and I've really enjoyed it! I can recommend it to anyone who's looking to learn how to draw people. Here's a muscle study I did this morning with its help :D
Version with notes and without colour under the cut:
