"Is this a joke??"
The Emperor turned the report on the Empire's first Celestial Computer over and over, reading it twice.
With the support of vast resources, the hardware for the first Celestial Computer had already been completed.
The compilation of the foundational code was also more than halfway finished.
Everything had been going smoothly, except for a tiny mistake with the name.
