I am looking for someone experienced with programming and technology.

[Attachment: COMP.jpg. That... looks like a certain handheld console.]

When I woke up this morning, there’s gift box with a COMP inside for me. The menu and features inside are different from what I know it should do. However, I’m not knowledgeable or skilled about technology to examine this.

Please contact me if you would like to help. As for payment, we can negotiate in person.

[...?]

No, I don't think it's a secret. [Maybe? She doesn't know anything about THIS COMP.] All COMPs have programming codes inside. Do you know what I mean by "code"?

[ittenbari]

Nope!
I guess not!
No idea at all!

[twiceinhabited]

Ah, I see.

Do you want to know about it?

[Does she need to go into exposition mode or not?]

[ittenbari]

Is it hard to understand?
I don't really understand how most stuff works here, anyway.
I just push the buttons and hope it goes okay.
I think I made a DVD player mad once.

[twiceinhabited]

[She's no tech expert, but she can handle general enough things.]

It usually depends on the object.

Some things are relatively easier to understand, but most of them generally comes with an instruction manual.

How did you make a DVD player mad? By pushing buttons?

[ittenbari]

Yeah, I was trying to figure out what it did and I kept pushing things until it growled at me.

So either it was angry or hungry, I'm not sure.

[twiceinhabited]

They wouldn't get hungry. If it's growling, I think something went wrong inside.

My knowledge about such things is only very general. [Like, enough to do things without slamming the buttons.] Someone with more technical knowledge may know what's happening.

[ittenbari]

You think so?

You don't think it wanted to eat a disc?

[twiceinhabited]

I believe so.

It reads the disc, not eat it. They read from the discs to see what kind of information they can display.

[ittenbari]

The words must be really small!!

[twiceinhabited]

[So close. So close.]

They're inside the disc. You could say they are very small words.

[ittenbari]

I don't understand at all.
It eats it to read it but the words are too small to see and then it uses them to make pictures?
My head hurts.

[twiceinhabited]

Don't worry about it.

Just take your time to slowly understand and learn about it, if you still wish to know.
