The EMP did nothing to my arm.

Either you should get better arms or I should get a better arm.

	Probably the former. I mean, if it's not broke, don't fix it? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It breaks a lot. And is hackable, and able to be used against people. And yet, we build it into everything. Like the magical robotic ship we're all on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Probably because your arm doesn't have an electrical component. Is it mechanical? Made of metal? My sister and I could definitely upgrade it for you, if you wanted. Doesn't have to be with electricity, either, although we could also build some EMP shielding into it if you want an electric upgrade. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	vuvalini 2018-03-28 03:06 am UTC (link)
	It's made of metal. I'd be interested in seeing what you can do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

We're really into robotics, only recently got into prosthetics~~, because my one friend has an arm that was made for him by an evil alien race, and my other friend lost his arm to a shark~~. But we're building an arm right now, and working on the coding of another one.

You already have the structure of an arm, so it should be much easier to upgrade it than to build it from scratch, even if you don't want any kind of computer coding involved.

	I think one without tech parts would be best. I don't know what I'd do with it. This one is strapped to my body with a harness. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

That's totally okay! Like you said, tech does have its downsides. I like the mechanical stuff too, a lot.

Unfortunately that's the harder part to do while we're on the ship cause I don't have all my tools. But I just met a lot of engineer/tech people who have tools that I didn't know they had, so I can totally get started anyway. I like having lots of projects running.

Oh, and I'm Matt.

	encrypting 2018-03-28 03:28 am UTC (link)
	Of course! Everyone deserves working limbs. Even if they're not the original flesh and blood ones. It's just a translation of a lot of my coding and robotics and engineering skills into a different application and it helps people, so that's awesome. Also really cool to meet you, Furiosa.

We can definitely do it without tech! Just, anything you know you want about it, tell us, and we'll do the best we can.

Like Matt said, we don't have EVERYTHING on this ship, but I totally have a set of dwarven smithing tools from Middle Earth, and scientists are working together, so we all have access to more. It can take time, but so love to do it!

I'm Pidge. Matt's my brother.

	Mine is basically a piece of scrap, so anything else would be good. Furiosa. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hackedthat 2018-03-29 04:23 am UTC (link)
	It's incredible what can be done with scrap sometimes. But yeah, we're working on collecting as much good arm stuff as we can, basically all the time. Wherever we end up next, I will definitely shop around for more. Nice to meet you! And I'm glad you arm kept working. We needed everything and everyone against those pirates.

	That's exactly what I have with me. My knife was part of my rig, though. It was part of the stick shift. I had weapons hidden all over the thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
