Data Recording 007: A new playground is available!

Sep 17, 2011 16:18

Action | Outside 1450 Mitchell Road[Once again Tachikoma is picking up the mail, and in a strange deja vu moment, finds another letter addressed to it. Well last time was a nice picture, what about this time ( Read more... )

excited pet is excited, no information is safe, do not explain them to it

[Looking out the window.]

What do you want?

[Tachikoma waves it claw in front of itself and then keeps it still to show the cable it can extend and retract from it]

Look! I got my interface cable back! With this I can physically link with computers and other devices!

Really and what are you going to do with that?

genkibot September 25 2011, 21:42:32 UTC

Oh, well, when I use it to connect to something, especially if it has some kind of processing component to it, I'm able to communicate with it and see how it works or even control it if I needed to. And if it has memory or similar type of storage, I can take a look at that too!

And of course what I connect to can do the same if they are capable to do so as it is a direct link. It's a much faster connection too, so if I needed to relay orders or messages, it may be easier for me to do so with this. At least for things like computers, it's usually better for me to connect like this since the hardware interface for most are things like keyboards and my claws aren't exactly designed to use those.

So can I borrow a computer to practice with? It's been awhile since I've connected with anything!

Alright.

Don't break anything though.

Yay! Thanks a bunch Miss GLaDOS!

And don't worry, I promise to be careful! In fact, I just ran a diagnostic before asking to borrow a computer, and while I still can't seem to access all my functions, it came back clear of any damaging programs or cyber-viruses, so there should be no way that I can harm the software of it!

So, um, where may I find the computer that I can borrow?

I have one in the garage.

genkibot October 22 2011, 18:25:35 UTC

Oh good! I can't wait to visit a new computer system!!

[And Tachikoma goes speeding off to play with the computer! In fact, several hours passed before you would even see the Tachikoma again. And you will, because it has questions now.]

Miss GLaDOS! Did you know there's a wide area network set up in the town! It didn't seem like the computer was connected to it, so I thought I'd go ahead and take a look and ask about it later. But there's servers and the signal seems to cover the entire town!

getsciencedone October 23 2011, 21:06:28 UTC

[Oh great he's back....wait.]

A what?

genkibot October 24 2011, 00:21:49 UTC

A wide area network! There's a couple of other computers connected to it as well, but I didn't want to disturb any at the moment. I don't have many firewall protections made yet, so the chances of anything malicious getting into my systems are extremely high...

But now that I know they exist, I can start working on that right away and then be able to go and say hello digitally with no problems! Isn't that great!

getsciencedone October 25 2011, 17:44:04 UTC

....fascinating.

genkibot October 28 2011, 02:48:01 UTC

It really is, isn't it! I don't think I'll need to make some extensive firewalls for protection, I doubt there's many malicious cyber criminals here, but I was thinking it would probably be better to be safe than sorry.

It's too bad none of the other members of Section 9 are here, Ishikawa makes some great protection programs...

Or you could just keep your valuable information off the network.
