So I've been scoping out the technology in this area and I'm wondering where I could locate some spare parts and maybe some computers? At least somewhere to start looking. Any suggestions?

are you thinking of setting up some kind of database or computer service?

There are several stores on the Near Shore I've found that sell high-quality parts, depending on what you want to use them for. They can be quite expensive, though.

Akihabara, over on the Near Shore! It's like a technology wonderland!

The Near Shore is where I've been looking, this place doesn't seem to be too digitally based. Still there are money issues among other things with getting parts there and they still seem a bit antiquated.

You wouldn't know anyone that can build logic circuits, would you?

I see
you might have more luck if you go dumpster diving for spare parts

getting enough money to buy computers is difficult only because we have a huge disadvantage towards working.
if anything, I could see about making a collection, but it's completely random what I get when I bend chance towards a specific goal

Yes, that has been my problem. Lacking the proper equipment. It makes me wonder if anyone would mind if I ran off to the near shore and borrowed a chip factory for a bit. Then again, there would be that mess about them being 200 years out of date.

Sometimes people on the Near Shore toss out some pretty useful stuff
if you want a cheaper alternative than what's in the stores.

If you want high-quality materials, you have to pay the price for them, kukuku.

Getting a job isn't as hard as you'd think.
[if Add can get a job then god knows anyone can, as long as they stay determined] We don't have to pay rent here, either, so you can spend your money on whatever you like. It's just a matter of leaving an impression strong enough for someone to pay you.

You might hafta look around a little, but I bet at least one of those places sells parts. Lots of people like to custom build their own rigs from the ground up, y'know?
connivingbird: (eh)

[personal profile] connivingbird 2016-10-26 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
from what I've heard, the best jobs are those people in fast food places or something like that.
even then we have problems

I got a few things on hand from when I was helping out the school. And you'll have to pick it up yourself. Shit's pretty dated by my standards though.
