i really like computers The Compute Shop

[PyroPhile]

Nestled between two buildings that can’t quite be made out, The Compute Shop stands.

On its window, a poster proclaims, “Every CPU Socket from AM5 and LGA1700 to TPL2 and *$null!” Inside, a young boy no older than ten flips on a PC with its transparent side panel displaying a variety of components, each with lights on them, coming together to form the word OPEN.

Can you fix Nintendo Switches

the voice from Without

[PyroPhile]

“Yes, Ethereal Voice, we can fix anything with a processor in it,” the boy says.

I Know All Things; I have Seen All Things. The Universe, Time, Reality - it is all laid bare before me... save the foolish Nintendo Switch! To reasons yet unknown, its structure remains hidden from my sight.

“Well, if you put your Switch on the counter here, I can get to work on it right away.”

A bucket rolls in, and gordon freeman hops out.

"hey, uhhh... long story, but my friend's dog broke... could you fix it?"

sunkist, the "perfect" dog, whom happens to be a sentient .jpeg appears next to him. sunkist appears to have lost his texture and is now a purple and black checkerboard.

Arch brings in an abacus. “Can you fix this?” He asks.

“Oof, did his metadata get corrupted?“ The boy stuck a probe into the black and purple, then pressed a button behind the counter. It turned back into a dog. “That’s better.”

“What appears to be broken with it?”

Arch shakes the abacus, and the beads move. When he’s finished, they spell out “You’re dead.”

“I think it’s haunted.” Arch says.

oops sorry

“Hmmm…”

The boy took the abacus and tried to compute 2+2. It came out as π, somehow. He shook it as well, and the words “You’re also dead” appear.

“Have you tried reseating the RAM?”

"No. How do I do that?" Elan says. The abacus begins humming to the tune of Psycho.

The boy pulls a screwdriver out of his pocket and takes off the wooden side bar of the abacus, revealing RAM sticks that look like tiny abacuses. He pushes on the clips holding them in place, takes them out, and puts them back in.

“Let’s see if it works this time.”

Elan computes 3+3 with the abacus, and it comes out like normal. No more death threats. "Thank you so much!" he says. "I'll never summon an evil demon by trying to divide by zero on an abacus again!"

Sparks flew from a broken robot in the corner at the mention of dividing by zero.

[Canada Lover]

Someone walked into the store.

"Hi, I am the new intern here!"

@PyroPhile

[Argenti he/him]

A bird hits the window and slumps down.

[-Redacted- he/him]

"Did someone mention dividing by zero?" A man said as he walked in. "I need to fix this plant. It's a gif, that doesn't know how to say gif correctly. Help!"
