Information Central 12/25
| Cool shit. I'll join in on this. So you caught my interest from the other thread, CN. What do *you* do?

I'm a hacker by trade, for about almost 4 years now. Hence why I make these threads from time to time, you never know where an interesting piece of info comes from. Plus if anyone ever needs help on the going ons around the city, I can help out as well, including some uh stuff that people might not want the public to know but I think they should. -CN
| Not quite commonplace for us to complain, but the price of those portable rope-light has inflated once more.
Seems apparent to us that our tree would be decorated with nothing but Nano Camo. -Uni
| >>83083
kira miki's production company bought a shit ton of it to use at her concerts, so the supply is probably just a little low right now -IN1
| >>83088
Agh.. We knew that would happen. Regretting our plans to keep off the shopping for later now.
Well, we guess Nano Camo would suffice for this year. -Uni
| >>83092 Hey it isn't all bad. I personally had all of the WLF offices NanoCamo their building facades with animated festive scenes from the old Megachristmas cartoon. I bet you can come up with something awesome too.

| >>83095
Rope-light is really the extent of our imagination; we may end up with Nano Camo that simulates rope-light.
At least the tree is still alive, much like how it used to be even before we arrived here. That is one consistently good thing about Mega Christmas, at least.
| >>83097
Well I'm sure my services can be of use. Besides I'll take almost any opportunity to find out more info. -CN
| >>83100
You have a live tree? Wow! Where'd you get it? How are you doing it? It must be depressing to hear, but I've never had a live tree! Granted I've also never tried to have one. I thought that practice was extinct.
>>83111
Well you know who I am. It'd be a pretty interesting situation for us to bump shoulders every now and again, yeah? Granted I hope that I'll never have to.

Ah, this was a gift from where we used to live. It's a short "pine" tree as the locals call it. We wouldn't be sure how tall it can reach, but it seems to be growing and aging very slowly.
It's taxing to keep it alive in Glitch City, almost improbable at first, even; with a few workarounds to keep the nanomachines from ever come to contact with it, it is as easy as it was back at its home. -Uni
| >>83120
That's so cool. So how do you do it? I'm so curious! Uh...this might be weird but can you send a picture of it? Does it look different from your usual plastic or hologram tree? Y'know aside from occasionally flickering and murdering an insect?
-Aethia
| >>83116
Well as long as you're not doing anything particularly nefarious with your Corp I shouldn't have a reason to butt in with you. I recognize there are some decent corps out there, I've even helped them in the past, but that's neither her nor there. -CN
| >>83127
Oh well unless some people are doing shit under my nose, it SHOULD be clean. I guess that's why people like you exist, huh? But yeah...Haha. Everyone makes fun of us for it but. I'm still following the old Net Neutrality Ruleset. Not perfectly, mind. It's hard to run a business in the current market doing that...but I do it pretty close!
- Aethia
| >>83137
That's already better than like 90% of the corps out there. If something fishy is going on though it will get exposed eventually. It always does. That's just how these kinds of things always work out. -CN

>shot.pnx
>In the picture was a small potted plant with the height about as tall as a traffic cone. It is surrounded by various equipment, directly connected to its pot.
We kept the plant alive through various tools: EMP to deter the nanomachines, a water filtration system, a vaporizer, as well as a host of various other tools that the locals gave to us (we think one of them is called "fertilizer"?).
| >>83146 I'm not sure if the rest of GC can hear it, but I'm pretty sure my neighbors just filed a complaint for public disturbance. I've never sqee'd so loud. That is adorable and awesome at the same time.
Isn't fertilizer like...animal poop mixed with dirt and chemicals?
- Aethia
| >>83156
We are.. not sure about what is inside of the fertilizer. We have a pile of it around, however and the tree seems to love it as well.
The locals do mention a word about manure, and the fertilizer do smell quite a bit — but we think we have adapted to the smell.
Glad to know we're not alone in the tree-loving community as well! It's such a bizarre experience growing one, it felt almost otherworldly doing so.
| >>83283 I know I said it already, but thank you. Haha. Do you think you can help my advertising campaign with this? I can do a lot with the normal channels but...
| >>83400
Hey this is as close to a free talj thread as it's gonna get. You can say whatever you want here, I'm not gonna stop you. -CN
| >>83416 I'm just saying with advertising one has to frame a narrative and try to fight the jaded masses whom have been victimized by GC's corporate business culture. Having someone who knows how people really feel and has a first-hand view of it all is indispensable.

Well I'm no marketing expert or anything but I think you should focus on safety and reliability between people above else. Every other Corp offered to help with their own resources, but when it comes to volunteer you have to strive to focus on the strength of the community, not the individuals that need help. Plus you know, this directly goes against the point those racist assholes all over the city are rioting about, so the message weeks twofold. -CN
| >>83699
Heh, definitely not. I don't think I can ever see myself doing something like that for a living. -CN

| Happy Mega Christmas everyone! Or at least as close as you can get to it during the current crisis. Just posting your central hub for all things GC related. Any info, big or small can be shared. Or if you prefer, you got a place where you can just chill with the other posters here. -CN
