In 1978 MIT CS students Danny Hillis and Brian Silverman designed a working computer capable of playing tic-tac-toe against a human opponent entirely out of Tinker Toys.

The machine consisted of 10,000 wooden parts and fishing line, and was designed with the help of a LISP program running on a DEC PDP-10.

In a letter to computer pioneer Gordon Bell describing the project, Hillis said the machine could have been built by any six-year-old with 500 sets of Tinker Toys, and a PDP-10.

———————————

After spending two weeks isolating yourself from the world it was finally time to leave your depression cave and get back to work. You needed to get on with your life and you weren't going to let Phasma stop you from living your best life. Over the last two weeks all you did was binge watch tv, eat junk food, cry and sleep. That was your life for two weeks and you had finally had enough.

A couple of your friends did stop by and check in on you. They did wonder why you had completely shut the world out. You could have told them the truth and the reason why you were in so much pain was because of Phasma but you decided that was a bad idea. You realised if you had told them, then there was a good chance you and Phasma would get in trouble. Therefore you told them that you just had home stuff going on.

They believed it so that was all that mattered. You didn’t really know how your first day back would go. Hopefully you won't see Phasma at all. Last time you wanted to see her you could never find her so hopefully it should be the same this time round. You needed to try and get back into your routine so you decided to get changed and head down to the gym.

You made yourself a quick protein shake before grabbing your gym towel and making yourself down to the fitness centre. Today you were going to work on your chest and arms and when you finally saw all the gym equipment you finally felt all the motivation come back to you. You made your way over to one of the stations so you could start your chest press.

This is just what you needed. You put your headphones in and played your gym playlist. As you were working your way through your workout you saw someone walk into the gym out of the corner of your eye. You didn’t really take much notice of them though as many people were in the gym at this time of the morning so you continued on with your workout.

Midway through your workout though you started to feel like you were being watched. You always seemed to have a sixth sense for when someone was looking at you. You stopped what you were doing and looked around the gym trying to find the culprit. Just as you were about to give up looking, someone finally caught your attention.

There she was staring at you looking as smug as ever. Seriously, that would just be your luck. The one day you finally decide to go to the gym and get your life back together she happens to be here reminding you why you were so depressed in the first place. You couldn’t be dealing with her today so you decided to finish the reps you were doing and leave.

Yes you were half way through your workout but you really couldn’t be there while she was watching you like you were her prey. You started to pack your station up when you heard footsteps getting closer to you. As you went to turn around to leave you almost walked into the one person you are desperately trying to avoid.

“Don’t let me stop you from finishing your workout. It looks like you are only half way through it” she said smirking at you knowing that she was getting under your skin. “Captain, I have finished my workout for the day. I am only doing half a workout as I haven’t been feeling too well so wanted to work myself back in gently” you lied through gritted teeth. “Fair enough. See you around y/n” she said as she wandered off to one of the other stations while you quickly stormed out of the gym.

How could she act like everything is fine? You went from fucking each other, to her avoiding you and then admitting she just used you for sex and now everything is fine again. You were getting emotional whiplash from everything. You just wished you knew where you stood with Phasma. Are you just going to be friends and are you going to spend the rest of your life avoiding her?

At this point in time you knew exactly what you wanted to do and that was to stay as far away as you possibly could. She had hurt you and there was no way you were going to act like you were friends when that was far from what was happening. Therefore you headed back to your room to get ready for work. There was no possible way she could distract you there.

Once you were back in your room you had a quick cool down workout as you didn’t have time to do it in the gym, no thanks to Phasma. Once you were satisfied with that you jumped in the shower before then getting ready and dressed for work. It was 8:50 when you had finally finished getting ready so you made your way down to your workstation to go have a look at your work orders for the day.

You made your way into your office to see the pile of work orders already placed neatly on your desk.. You flicked through the pile seeing that most of the aircrafts you would be fixing today were a variation of tie fighter aircrafts. You also saw that the flagship also needed some general maintenance so you had that to look forward to.

However your heart dropped when you saw the final aircraft you would be working on today. There it was in black and white. The Naboo Royal Starship. Captain Phasma’s aircraft to be precise. Seriously was the entire galaxy out to get you today. You had spent weeks not being able to find the woman and now she seems to be everywhere. Why was the universe torturing you like this?

Thankfully her aircraft was the last one to work on so once you have done what needs to be done you can just leave and hopefully not have to see her again. You grabbed the pile of work orders and started making your way through the list. You grabbed your headphones and blasted one of your playlists. The first song that played was It’s Nice To Have A Friend. How typical was that, you’ve never felt lonelier and this was the first song that had to play.

The day went by relatively quickly while you were working. You managed to get through almost half the work orders when you checked the time. It was 12:30 and you could feel yourself getting hungry. You were currently in one of the lower decks of the flagship repairing one of the boosters. Once that was repaired you grabbed all your tools and made your way down to the cafeteria. You grabbed a selection of food that you enjoyed before finding an empty table to eat at.

You chose a small table in the far corner. No one could bother you and it meant you could just eat and listen to your music. Both of Us was now playing and you were just happy vibing to the music and eating your lunch. As you were having your own little disco you saw someone sit down opposite you. At first you didn’t look up at all. Out of all the places this person could have sat and they decided they wanted to sit with you. Well you weren’t going to give them any satisfaction so you continued eating and listening to your music.

You were happy minding your own business when the person opposite decided to kick you under the table. At first you ignored it as you believed it was an accident but then it happened again. You snapped your head up to see who was kicking you and you weren’t surprised to see the one person you were avoiding smirking at you.

You took out one of your headphones and just looked at Phasma. “What do you want, Captain?” you asked not really in the mood to hear her sarcastic response. “Nothing much, just wanted to sit and eat my lunch” she said while looking down at her food. Was she being serious? Why couldn’t she just leave you alone? With that you decided that you were finished so you grabbed all your belongings and went to get up to leave.

“Wait, where are you going?” she asked you. She didn’t care at all. She never did and so whatever cruel trick she was playing you weren’t going to fall for. “I’ve finished my lunch so I’m going back to work” you said as you walked off leaving Phasma sitting at the table just staring at you as you walked away. You really wished things hadn’t ended the way it did. You would have loved to have lunch with Phasma and chatted but maybe certain things weren’t meant to happen.

You made your way back to your workstation and got on with the rest of your jobs for the day. You turned the volume on your phone up as ivy was playing and it was one of your favourite songs. As you were working on one of the tie fighters you felt someone tap you. You quickly turned expecting to see one of your colleagues but instead you were met by Phasma again. Seriously, this woman does not quit.

You took out of your headphones which paused your music before looking up at Phasma. “Can I help you Captain?” you asked really hoping that she didn’t want anything at all. “I need my aircraft now,” she said to you sternly. You looked over to her Naboo and then back at her. “Sorry Captain, it's last on the list so I haven’t got round to fixing it yet. You can take it if you want but I wouldn’t recommend it as it’s not safe to fly” you said getting back to what you were doing.

“No, I need it now so if I were you I would stop what you are doing and fix what is wrong with my aircraft so I can use it” she said starting to get angry. All you could do was let out a small laugh. “Sorry these orders have come from Supreme Leader Snoke, so if you have a problem I would go speak to him first. If he moves your aircraft up the list then I will be more than happy to repair it for you. Until then Captain there is not a lot I can do” you said to Phasma as you got back to your work.

You had this massive smirk on your face as you got back on with your work. You knew that your comment had pissed her off. How could you tell? Well she stormed off like a big baby and the only way her aircraft would get moved up the list was if Snoke gave the word to do so which is highly unlikely.

You finished on the ship you were working on and Phasma had still not returned which obviously meant that she didn’t get the approval otherwise she would have obviously come back to brag. As the time moved forward you were finally able to get through all of your work orders for the day. You were relieved as it meant you could finally relax.

You made your way back to your room but just as you were about to sit down and relax you heard a voice come over the intercom. “Y/N, Y/LN and Captain Phasma to my office now. I repeat, Y/N, Y/LN and Captain Phasma to my office now” you heard Snoke say over the intercom.

Great what could this possibly be about you thought as you got up and made your way up to Supreme Leader Snoke’s office.
