I asked about it over in the OC creation forum - she makes a small computer chip that she can then create a neural link to and control the computer using her thoughts instead of having to manually input commands. She grew up with her older brother who is a hack and her father is a hacker, and her grandfather was a mechanic, who had the semblance of being able to hear anything mechanical running and be able to pinpoint exactly what was wrong with it. The limitations to her semblance is that she can only affect computers that have her chip installed directly to them - she can't just plug a usb in or use wifi to affect them. So she's really into electronic technology, and installs her chip into them whenever she can. It's how she operates her scythe and guns when there aren't any actual trigger or mechanical functions.

The other problem is that any emps and her weapons die - she has to reprogram them all over again. And she has to carry around a miniature solar farm to recharge her weapons when in the field - she wears it strapped to her back. It's heavy, but she's  trained herself to be used to the weight. She actually feels off-balance when she doesn't wear it. It doesn't take much charge to fully charge her weapons, but constant use can be a bit draining on the battery. In really tight spots, she can use electric dust to charge them, but that has the chance of frying the circutry
