3.0 - week three

WEEK THREE
Last night might have been exhausting for any number of reasons - maybe it was the emotional

toll of dealing with those ghosts, or maybe you stayed up too late after watching Jim Shrok. Who knows, but Saturday is over, even if some of you haven’t quite left it behind and half spirits that are still hanging on, tethered to you and weighing you down…

But that’s not going to stop a new week from starting. There’s no breaks in an eight week course.

There’s very little fanfare to the start of your third week of the course, though it does seem like the fog has lifted even more. It’s a bit more of a trek down the abandoned streets of Estelline, but surely a mile is walkable? Or you could grab a bike or try to hotwire one of those cars in the mall parking lot… Whatever you plan to do this week is up to you. All you know is you've got some new locations to explore.

As always, Florence and Lorelei are available.

SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY

TASK LIST


( OOC Note: Luci, Mutsu, and Mae will each receive a small roomba! Congrats on the successful egg drop. It's a tiny little friend that cleans extra well, though this also means its trash compartment is a little smaller so it'll need to be cleaned more often. )

Ah...

[This is his kind of request! ... not even the fact it has to do with technology, it's kind of request because it's delivered promptly and without painful chit-chat in the beginning.]

It depends on the modification. If it's programming in a new application that should be easy. Altering the functionality... this place makes it a bit trickier.

[Still, he's giving much more detailed and reasonable replies than in the arcade. Congrats, it's his comfort zone!]

[Despite his taciturn nature, he does pay attention to the nuances in people's behavior, so... definitely noted! Even if he doesn't quite know the reason behind it yet.]

I don't know enough about technology to say which category it would fall under. But I was wondering if it was possible to send live camera footage to another device. If that won't work, then extending the length of video that can be recorded would be fine too.

It depends on if the camera's already connected to the internet or not. If it is, then it should be simple enough.

[If it's not... well, again, at home he would certainly be able to swap out or alter it. With his current load-out? Ugh.]

... I can see about the recording length. You mean the amoun the tablet can record and hold, right?

[he holds up his tablet just to check]

[personal profile] undertakings 2022-06-13 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I think it only records five minutes of footage right now... but I don't know if that's from a storage limit.

[Or just because the camera app is that shitty??]

If it's an app limitation I should be able to lift it...

[he tilts his head, pulling up some of the setting applications on the tablet]

... storage would require an SD card or something...
undertakings: (✧ the war of the worlds)

[personal profile] undertakings 2022-06-13 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Just. Squinting a little.]

An SD card?

[What is that......]

[staring for a moment]

A- a secure digital card. It's a form of external storage the device can use instead of internal storage. Like a memory card!

[personal profile] undertakings 2022-06-14 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
[stares back

but okay yeah, a memory card makes sense.]


I can try asking the Instructor for one, but... how much storage would you need?

[He fully expects to only be able to get ahold of really shitty ones.]

[personal profile] ignihidden 2022-06-14 06:53 am (UTC)(link)
That depends on the quality. For 720p, it's going to take about 800MB of data per hour of recorded video...

[please assume he just starts rattling off a list, here of way more information than necessary about video formats and file sizes. please assume he just keeps talking for a solid two minutes before getting to the point. this is the polar opposite of arcade!idia.]

So, for example, five hours at a really shitty quality would be something like 3.5GB but if you need to make out the details of what you're recording then you'd need double that.
