Oh my god, this world doesn't even have silicomb technology? What sort of awful fucking backwater planet is this, and how do you all not go crazy?

Don't answer that, that wasn't an invitation to tell me about your feelings. KK, this is your fault, you nooklicking idiot.

[ video or voice is bound to alarm him, best to ease into that. ]

we survive by not caring overly much about bees
which isnt to say earth isnt a bit backwater and underdeveloped
how long have you been here

[lisping]

iit2 not about the bee2, god, it's the proce22iing power

idk liike an hour?

[glowsferatu]

im very inclined to believe that
that it isnt about the bees is an entirely credible and convincing argument
but even if it isnt im still having trouble caring about the other thing too

what was happening just before you were ported

the heck is a silicomb

hybriid organiic proce22iing network. way fa2ter than iinorganiic alone.

[Hybrid organic processing network. Way faster than inorganic alone.]

[Hiro's already on top of the silicomb comment, he'll just wait and see what comes of that instead of making this poor guy hash it out multiple times.]

We generally avoid going crazy by keeping ourselves busy. Easy enough.

well iill be bu2y tryiing to drag the tech around here iinto the pre2ent day, that2 for 2ure

[Well I'll be busy trying to drag the tech around here into the present day, that's for sure]

[tadeadshi]

Oh yeah? Sounds interesting. How 'present' is present day for you?

the calendar doe2nt exii2t any more

Silicomb technology?

[lisping]

2croll up, dumba22

[scroll upu, dumbass]

[wonk]

here on earth we like 2 indulge in things like "good engineering practice" + "not being awful 2 ourselves"

[Let the shittalking begin.]

[lisping]

there2 nothiing wrong wiith siiliicomb tech, it2 a hell of a lot more 2table than mo2t 2et-ups.

[he's not going to touch 'not being awful to ourselves though he appreciates her use of 2s]

[wonk]

u aint gotta feed other stuff sugar 2 keep it running tho

also u can never debug ur system bc it is literally made of bugs

[lisping]

theyre pretty good about fiindiing theiir own food
and you dont have to worry about power lo22

debuggiing can be triicky but that2 becau2e iit2 genetiic code

[He knows this voice, all too fucking well. If he never heard it again, it'd be a blessing, yet here he is.

Of course, he's not sure when he's even from, if he even knows about Feferi or the fact he totally kicked his worthless ass in a duel. FUCK TIME SHENANIGANS!!!]

maybe because wwe aint all degenerates and can survvivve more than fivve fuckin seconds outside wwithout the need to be goggle-bulbed at a screen wwith a bunch a fuckin wworthless codes
you knoww like sane people wwith a shred a wworth to them
or i guess you wwouldnt knoww that but the point bloody remains

Different cultures develop different technology at different rates. Perhaps they have something different that might interest you.

However I would love to hear about this 'silicomb' tech you spoke of.

[voice]

[lisping]

So far it looks pretty basic. [...he's also being a culture snob, but whatever]

Hybrid organic computing technology. Easy to set up distributed processing nodes.

[exsithstential]

We can agree on that as well. Although the idea of a organic-synthetic hybrid is very intriguing.

I take it you're of a more technical mind?

[It's a little girl! She's being digitally projected, as if from a computer, rather than from a video camera]

You are a rather strange human.

[So angry? And such strange language. Why doesn't it translate like other imPorts? And what's this about honeycomb-based processing systems? Tachikoma has no data on anything remotely like that. ]

[He turns on his video feed just to make a goddamn point. He's mostly shaped like a human teenager. Just, y'know, grey. With horns. And a set of doubled fangs]

I'm not a fucking human.

[someone should probably tell him it's considered rude to swear in front of human children]
