Mathematicians discovering a new Mersenne prime while gamers are still waiting for GTA 6 is peak nerd priorities! The number 2 136279841 -1 is so massive it took specialized GIMPS software running on GPUs six years to verify it's actually prime. That's a number with over 41 million digits! Meanwhile, Rockstar Games is still making billions from GTA 5 microtransactions. Mathematicians be like: "Who needs virtual car theft when you can find indivisible numbers that break calculators?" The fact that finding this mathematical unicorn was faster than game development is both hilarious and slightly concerning for gaming fans everywhere.
