Three things.
1 -
I have a network-based service for task coordination up and running as of now. It's a BBS-style system hosted on a spare communicator. Project leaders can upload files, maintain contact lists, issue automated alerts to individuals or groups within the project, etc. Project members' permissions are set by the leader, but they can access the main board and receive alerts from the group by default, and have options to use the contact lists to send messages through the service, download and upload certain files, check in to report what they've done, etc.
Send "DOCS" to @bulletin for the manual. If you want to host one, send "NEW" and it'll take you through an automatic setup process. Right now it's set so each account can run one board, to keep traffic low, but if you need more I can manually set them up.
Credit to Haru Okumura for user experience feedback. It was designed for the garden, but should be customizable for any project.
2 -
There's a calendar running on the garden board, but I didn't want to implement calendar functions across the service yet...because we don't know what year or month or weekday it is. The comms don't have dates, but there's a decently reliable timekeeping system based on computer ticks. Should the station reactivation be Day 1 and calendars just count up from that? Seven-day weeks? This is all a UI question, not a system one. I need some input.
3 -
I found a manual for the VR hardware. The sets are still NOT confirmed safe for use. There's a lot to look through before that, probably more than checking over the sets themselves would cover.
But if there's anything from this you're interested in, I can look into it. Checking this against other device standards, salvaging useful parts, etc.
If there's any chance of modifying these so they're sure to fail to safe, and getting into the controlling computer, I'd like to make a zero-G training simulation. That's a lot of ifs, though. And it's a way lower priority than opening more doors and gaining control of the station control systems, so this won't cut into work for that.
[[ooc: if you have any questions about how this thing works, hmu, my technical knowledge is wobbly but i can at least say oh yeah it can/can't do that. It's a network-based system - like, you send a text to @bulletin with your project login info, it sends you a text back with the current project board in full ASCII glory and the keywords for viewing specific info, getting files, etc. Messages sent via the service come from @bulletin with the sender's name and the project name front and center. Alerts can be set up to be automatic but come in as texts. It's a BBS service by way of email groups by way of a massive stack of scripts running on one poor little communicator.
Also the security on it is diamond fucking hard.
If you want to lmk when someone sets up a board, so that I have an OOC tally of IC knowledge, that'd be swell.]]

If you want some calender data, you can try syncing the system to my internal clock. It's kept time just fine for me here. Hasn't failed once.
no subject
2 - Virtual reality hardware, in the room behind the bar. It simulates an environment or experience for a user and communicates directly with their brain to immerse them in that environment or experience. That direct access to the brain lets the hardware do some really unfortunate stuff that I probably don't have to describe if it and the code running it aren't made as failsafe as possible.
3 - Is there a way to do that read-only? Exposing you to whatever malicious actor is in the station systems for a slightly more reliable clock would be ridiculous.
no subject
2 - Probably best if it's not used then. It'd be safer to destroy it if possible.
3 - Maybe? I'm not to worried about malicious bits of coding. My system is likely incompatible with it anyway, and even if it isn't, I can quarantine and delete it if it tries to infect me.
no subject
2 - Yes and no. Like I said, the sets might have useful parts, so they shouldn't be used but destroying them outright would be a waste.
3 - Let me explore some options and get back to you.
no subject
2 - When I say destroy it, I meant take it apart, not smash it to smithereens. Obviously the parts inside it could be used elsewhere.
3 - Sure. It's not that big of an issue though. YoRHa androids are pretty sturdy when it comes to programming.

I believe you, but the station systems ran circles around 9S when he tried to take them on alone. One world's state-of-the-art is another world's deprecated. I'm no slouch and I don't have faith in the effectiveness of defenses I could set up for you. The risks and rewards just seem unbalanced.

He might be more open to you asking him to meet in a set location than me. Unless you want me to hack through his defenses while he's on edge. Either or. Makes no difference to me.
you know what assume this has been turbo-private since like five or six comments ago
Is the bar a decent location?
i was thinking the same thing lma
