It turns out the flash RAM wasn't damaged at all. This was purely a design error by people who apparently never thought to try out Spirit in, say, some desert on planet Earth to see what might happen. Unless I'm getting inaccurate information about all this, I can only conclude that the Spirit rover design team suffers from a serious lack of quality control and product testing. Not even a toy manufacturer would put a product on the shelves at Wal-Mart without doing more testing than the $820 million Spirit rover apparently went through.
The system uncontrollably reboots when the flash RAM gets full? Who in their right mind designed this thing? Look, I have a team of engineers at Arial Software right now that could put together a far more reliable system than the Mars rover, and probably for half the cost. And guess what: we would actually test the thing before launching it.

"Big Tech and mainstream media are constantly trying to silence the independent voices that dare to bring you the truth about toxic food ingredients, dangerous medications and the failed, fraudulent science of the profit-driven medical establishment.
Email is one of the best ways to make sure you stay informed, without the censorship of the tech giants (Google, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.). Stay informed and you'll even likely learn information that may help save your own life."
