Description

A prize for one of the winners of my recent giveaway on tumblr.

I was asked to draw a part of a story where Ford asks a tablet what are the digits for Pi.

The tablet analyzed what Ford asked and then beeped getting Mabel’s and Dipper’s attention. ‘The digits…’ Ford was startled when it actually started speaking and yelped in surprise accidentally dropping the tablet once more. ’…3.14159265…’ “It’s… It’s actually talking. And the digits are right.” As the tablet kept going Ford grew happy and then picked up the tablet holding it in the air in front of him as if it were treasure. “Holy hot cakes! This thing is astounding! It’s still going and it’s getting all of the digits correct!”

I would start this sort of thing by asking Ford about Moore's Law.  This is referencing Gordon Moore, who said that microchips will double their processing power every two years.  By that logic, computers would be at least 32,768 times more powerful in 2012 (when Gravity Falls took place) than they were in 1982.

I don't thin ford would be surprised at all by them. He made and has a lot of future tech on himself, so wherever he was beyond the portal, it looks like it was futuristc. Sooooooooooooo... i think he would be more like "HOW DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN FUNCTION WITH DOWNLOAD SPEEDS LIKE THIS?!"

UnluckyxSe7en In reply to Uroboros18 [2016-04-11 16:54:26 +0000 UTC]

I think his surprise and giddiness would be that this doesn't come from beyond the portal, but his own backwards home dimension. You have a good point though, he seems more like he gets tired of the slow tech progress in his home world (like when he created those new lightbulbs that wouldn't burn out.)

Days later...
Stan: Where's Ford? He hasn't eaten dinner.
Dipper: ... He's in the basement, reciting the decimals of pi with the tablet.
Stan: Goddamn Nerd, Ford get up here!!!
Ford walks into room with bags under his eyes.
Stan: Where have you been?
Ford stares at Stan and whispers
Ford: SO MANY CAT PICTURES.

Judging by all of the cool sci-fi junk Ford whips out all the time, you'd think that he would've seen much more advanced technology while jumping dimensions...but Ford playing with iPads like a little kid is so damn cute that I don't even care~ I love this old chubby owl.

I can so see this happening, even the simplest of inventions would get Ford's attention seeing how smart he is and all.
