Funny enough, a number of years ago a giant 4chan archive surfaced which included a lot of the very first SCP posts that had been lost. It actually confirmed that 173 was posted after Blink aired, meaning it was almost certainly inspired by the episode. Not that it makes the SCP worse, but it's some interesting lore.

Perhaps, but Nintendo also seems happy to let people forget that the Wii U ever existed. Also, they seem to not care as much about non-piracy/CFW releated hardware mods- take the 3DS capture card as an example, AFAIK it was never targeted by Nintendo since it very clearly was not meant to facilitate piracy.

This might be a really stupid question, but if you're going to use reusable pods, why not just... Use a classic Mr. Coffee-style coffee maker that has been around for decades?

They don't really need to associate it with a specific person (although I'm sure they'd love to)- they can get plenty of data just within the context of what a single person buys in their store.

Funny enough, I don't think Wario and Waluigi are ever said to be siblings. Waluigi just kinda... showed up to a tennis match one day and then stuck around.

You took too much. That can happen with any drug when you don't have a tolerance built up and take too large of a dose.

Of all the drugs you could take to help with autism symptoms, nicotine is one of the worst. Any benefits it might have are nothing compared to just how chemically addictive it is. There are many, many better options for helping with anxiety, both prescription and "experimental". I'd really advise against trying nicotine again, it really isn't worth it.

Microwaves will not irradiate or otherwise damage your food. They'll make it chewy or soggy sometimes, but that's about it.

The funny thing is that standard human operating temperature is much closer to the coldest you can get than to the hottest. Absolute zero, when all thermal motion stops and it's literally impossible to get any colder by definition, is only -273.15°C. We can reach it fairly easily, and we know that weird stuff does happen at low temperatures such as Bose-Einstein Condensates, but the universe really can't cool a few orders of magnitude- there isn't that much more cooling for it to do.

I'm curious, what happens if you try using a "portable" version of FF? It should be completely self-contained, so if it works, you would know it's probably some weird remnants left over from an old installation messing with things.

I highly doubt it. The NES has been completely reverse engineered for decades, there really isn't any reason to use proprietary code for an emulator for it.

BlueStacks is for emulating an android phone on a PC. It's not a remote desktop app, and regardless such apps can't be used to control iPhones due to the way iOS sandboxes applications from the system.

Either way, all such apps need to have connections approved by hand on the device they're connecting to. I think Occam's Razor applies here- is there really a world-class hacker breaking into your phone using crappy, easy-to-spot remote desktop software? Or is there a simpler explanation?

This post is on the front page of Lemmy when sorting by hot, just fyi (that's how I found it). Lemmy is a small forum so it doesn't take much to get to the front page.
