I don't know how all of these girls have their computers implode like once a year. It's insane. And it's always the fucking motherboard killing itself, except that one time Ame's GPU committed a murder suicide with the Motherboard. I'm starting to speculate it's because they all buy shitty pre-builts, which always cheap out on mobos and PSUs, which leads to either the poverty mobo just giving up, or the PSU shitting its pants and killing other components.
Never underestimate the power of ignorance. I remember a year or so ago when Ina's computer died. She ended up replacing virtually everything in it, except for the CPU itself (those rarely die).
Except for maybe Botan and possibly Amelia, I doubt any of the Vtubers we discuss here could actually diagnose anything computer related properly. Is it actually Pippa's motherboard? Maybe just the power supply is on the fritz instead? How would they even know, unless they have a friend who does tech work?
So then it's off to Ibuypower or some other shit prebuilt company that skimps on the power supply or cooling or something shitty like that...and they get to pay way too much for the privilege. I'm surprised that companies don't have at least
some form of tech support for employees that absolutely require a computer to do their work.
So either Pippa brings it to a repair shop (which would probably make more sense in this case, so she at least knows what went wrong), or she buys an entire new computer, who knows?
It also doesn't help that the majority of the talents use computers that aren't quite up to the task. Streaming is pretty fucking demanding (anyone remember when Calli's stream slowed to a crawl just because she used the 'smoke in the background' asset, and
that little feature was the final straw for her system?), and they really should be using two computers to properly run the full broadcast.
