Comment on Voyager 1
trolololol@lemmy.world 1 month agopretty expected for a memory cell to fail after some time
50 years is plenty of time for the first memory chip to fail
Also remember it was built with tools from the 70s. Which is probably an advantage, given everything else is still going

Definitely an advantage. Even without planned obsolescence the olden electronics are pretty tolerant of any outside interference compared to the modern ones.
