Kind of dev related, during a Firefly one-shot roleplay:

GM: So you have a data chip in your pocket. Do you want to see what's on it?

Me (hesitant): ...Kinda. *wait* Okay, I put the chip into one of my computers.

GM: The data chip shows random gibberish--it's encrypted. Your engineer may know how to decrypt it.

Me: Okay. Hey, Engineer! *holds imaginary data chip out to her* Decrypt this!

Engineer: No. *pause*, *sighs* Fine. But we need to be careful.

GM: Yes, now time for technobabble...

Me: So once we decrypt this, it's probably going to look for the MAC address, so we need an air-gapped machine--a machine that's never been online before--and a TAILS LiveUSB. We'll decrypt the data chip and then destroy the computer.

GM: ...Technobabble.

Fighter: ....I actually understood that and it actually makes sense. Good job. *fist bump*

    That was awesome. However, it's even more awesome when you do it in Exalted.
