The Warning Written in Code

On a more serious note, has anyone managed to repair the Ghostwriter Disappearing Desktop? I've been sitting here since writing the OP trying to repair it and have made no progress.

I don't get this. I also don't have the game yet, so that explains why I don't understand. o3o

He's talking about a computer in game

I figured that. I just don't understand the purpose of the "warning".

The Ghostwriter Disappearing Desktop states it is unbreakable. I was just trying to be funny about warning people that it is not in fact unbreakable, that you can break it with a failed hacking attempt. And so far, a Handy Skill of 7 isn't sufficient to repair it.

On the bright side, it does make for a very convenient way to skill up handiness.

I can confirm now that even with a Handiness of 10 you cannot repair the Ghostwriter Disappearing Desktop.

what about programming as well? might need both skills? i dont know thinking outside the box

What if it is not the Desktop that is broken but the user. Do you watch your handiness when you attempt to repair it? Does it "magically" go down?

I was level 10 programming when the hacking attempt failed vs the Supercomputer that destroyed the Ghostwriter. As such, with both 10 Programming and 10 Handiness I can confirm that does not allow you to repair the computer.

I don't believe it was a glitch, but I can't test it anymore since I broke down and replaced the computer for 5k. I spent hours trying to repair it to get the skill up all the way and had closed the game a few times in those hours. But I cannot remember my handiness magically go down at all.
