9TH DAY - [VIDEO] + [ATTACHMENT]

[babel_hacker]

[It was after school when Atsuro have enough time for the video recording. He’s been going over his information about the Shadows, what they know about them and what they found out last month.

He also have been resting up from the ordeal, which put off his usual work into the database.]

Afternoon, everyone! Atsuro here with the usual update about the Shadows. [Here be the database update. New people will just get a copy of the latest version.] For new people who haven’t got it before, it show all the Shadows we know around the city so far and their resistances.

As always, I recommend going out with a partner or a group, since some Shadows might be immune to your attacks or spells. The most annoying ones are those immune to physical attacks. [VISCERAL MAYA HE’S LOOKING AT YOU.]

And also, if anyone got any new information about the Shadows, please let me know. [He frowns, looking serious for the moment.] Especially after what happened last month, for those who was there to experience it.

[Pause.] With our Shadows, it brings up questions about the other Shadows wondering around. Our Shadows are a part of us, even if we keep them hidden from others. So what does that mean for the…less sentient Shadows? As they can affect people’s mind...maybe they’re born from people, just not as...collected together like our Shadows. Just fragments of the human mind, if you get what I’m saying?

I’m still brainstorming, which is kinda why I’m busy in getting this update out. So if you have any ideas, I’d appreciate hearing them.

Right! I still have this year and next year to go before graduating, anyway. [Graduating in America... He's not sure what to think about it.]

No reason not to try getting a head-start, right?

[A pause, and she makes the face one makes when a passing thought strikes them without warning.]

Oh! Not trying to change the subject, but you're far and large the most tech-savvy person I know. I was looking at getting a laptop computer, and I was hoping I could get your opinion on if it was... well, a proper computer or not.

A laptop?

Because it's portable, it's not as powerful as a computer because you can at least upgrade them. But I'd recommend getting it because it's convenient and can still do almost everything a computer can do.

I'll admit that convenience is more or less what I'm going for. Power only really matters if I'm going to do graphically intensive things on it, right? Lower-power wouldn't make typing any slower or anything, I should hope.

[babel_hacker]

Nah, it shouldn't make typing go any slower. Also, generally a laptop doesn't hold as much memory as a computer, so keep that in mind while putting things on it.

Well, there's other ways of storing information too, thumb drives and similar things, I think it was.

Guess my bigger question would be that it's kind of hard to upgrade them, right?

Re: [video]

[babel_hacker]

It should be simple, since you can upgrade their memories or hard drive. For other things, it really depends on the model and whether they allow it.

[skaldssong.livejournal.com]

Mm, alright~ What do I need to watch out for? Any buzzwords that mean 'hope you didn't want to upgrade this functionality of the machine, pal.'?

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Heheh! The manual should tell you what you can upgrade on it.

Ah! Good point! Alright then. Thanks for the pointers, Atsuro.
