Reblog to save a life

[thornsofmalkav]

Hey, does anyone have a spare identity disc from the Grid/ZODIAC that they wouldn't mind lending me so I can back it up on the science lab's supercomputer and then temporarily overwrite it with someone's data? It's to save a life. I promise I'll put the original data back after I'm done.

I don't have an identity disc, but I do have quite a bit of scientific ability at your disposal.

Excellent! I'm going to try to Frankenstein Acantha a new body that isn't dying with the shit I learned when we were computer programs, so you can be my lab assistant.

Speaking of helpful science--do we know how the anti-midge efforts are going? Because if we can set up somewhere they aren't or find ways to redirect them, that would be super helpful for everyone.

I should be able to take some offline with an electromagnetic pulse, but I'm not sure about reinforcements or redirecting them--the redirect would be the safer option, I think.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeahhhh. Man, we need a way to hack into them.

[carbonatedscientist]

The actual construction and deconstruction would be more my forte, I'm afraid. Taking control of them with the equipment I have isn't quite feasible, but I can keep looking for a solution.

[thornsofmalkav]

We're not in the most optimal place for hacking, yeah. Especially when we're on TV and can't bust out too much special equipment.

[carbonatedscientist]

I could invent the abacus, there's a start.

[thornsofmalkav]

I'm pretty sure it's already been invented. Rediscover, maybe.

[carbonatedscientist]

And after that, I'll bring in some basic algebra.

Maybe trigonometry, if we're here long enough.

[thornsofmalkav]

Godspeed, my dude.
