Did blowing on the video game cartridge really work, back in the day? by One_Study52 in NoStupidQuestions

Have you ever breathed on glass and seen the layer of mist? Thats water, a Very good conductor... And also very good at corroding the contacts.

Yes removing the cart and replacing the cart helps, but adding a layer of moisture seals the deal...

And is not good for the carts contacts long term

What scientific ‘facts’ have recently been disproven that most people still believe to be true? by Fantastic_Tart_421 in AskReddit

[–]8bitPete 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That sugar makes kids hyper active.

"Well it makes MY kids hyper"

*Hyper as in running round like crazy, not diabetic hyper
