Hell, most PC's cant go a week without needing an update, which always causes some kind of issue, that needs another update to fix the mess caused by the previous update. And rinse and repeat. A computer working for 1.3 million years? Can't see it. I can't even imagine the amount of updates needed. I'd probably take a sip of arsenic before I clicked and waited for THAT update to complete.
And with how fast everything grows obsolete, people look at me strange when I tell them I'm using the same PC I've owned since 2017. It's only 7 years old, but you'd swear I told them I'm driving a Ford Model-T to work or something else equally absurd.
See, the problem is, just as CrimsonGenius is failing to consider that elves are not necessarily derived from humans and are magical so they don't have to follow any biological norms at all, you're failing to consider that in science fiction and fantasy, alien computers from an advanced civilization don't have to follow any of the conventions of contemporary Earth computers.
It's a mythical allegorical story, not a historical document.
Of course, we didn't give you the context in our original comment, so failing to consider that is slightly fair. But, really, when having a discussion about stories in general on a website where people are writing all sorts of things, none of us should be applying a single standard to every instance of writing.
TLDR: Authors can write whatever they want forever. Too bad, so sad.
