Ha, I just came here to post this! It's seriously cool, and the Navajo's history in the semiconductor industry is something I never knew about.

I would love a rug like that.

This is such an incredibly dumb idea. If this "storage method" was to gain any traction, Google would figure out how to shut it down, either by banning accounts (removing all your data) or worse, instituting a policy of removing videos that don't reach a certain view threshold. Not to mention, encoding data this way is inefficient as hell.

Just pay a few dollars for reliable storage, whether from Google or Proton or whoever you like.

It's pretty hard though. Without mass, everything travels at the speed of light and doesn't experience the flow of time, which don't really mesh well with classical physics (or quantum mechanics, and definitely not relativity).

Even then, anyone can use inspect element to make it look like it says whatever you want.

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.

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.

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 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.

Basically the scheme from Office Space

Sync works too! This is what I do. Unfortunately it's only a matter of time before reddit/imgur/some other site changes something and the app breaks, but for now the old reddit apps still seem to all be working okay.

They don't actually provide decryption keys, the user has to either extract them from their own Switch or find them elsewhere online. However, it could be argued by Nintendo that using an unreleased game ROM for testing proves that the devs themselves were guilty of piracy, and were therefore somehow condoning the use of their emulator for piracy.

Either way, we won't know how well Nintendo's arguments would have held up in court, because the devs settled rather than fight it out.
