[[Person 1 sits on the floor facing a laptop with another laptop behind them. The second laptop has an external keyboard attached. Person 2 stands looking at Person 1.]]

Person 1: Keys on my keyboard keep failing, even when I boot from an external recovery disk.
Person 2: Sounds like it's hardware, then.

[[Person 1 turns slightly to reach the second laptop.]]

Person 1: Yeah... except the problem followed me from my last computer.
Person 2: You have the most bizarre tech issues.

[[Person 1 has unplugged the keyboard from the second laptop and plugged it into the first laptop.]]

Person 1: It must be spreading via keyboards. This one won't work with any computer now.
Person 2: When the robot apocalypse happens, I'm hiding out in your house. Any Skynet drones that come near will develop inexplicable firmware problems and crash.

{{Title text: In the future, a group of resistance fighters send me back in time with instructions to find the Skynet prototype and try to upgrade it.}}
