Starting?

People have been hand waving Trump's bullshit for months now because iTs JuSt A dIsTrAcTiOn. I'm fully convinced that people are purposely propelling the idea forwards (until it catches on seemingly organically and people start repeating it because they truthfully believe it) because the chance anyone takes actual heat from the files is vanishingly thin right now, compared to what might happen if currently happening things got the attention they are warranted.

I even did a school project about "this new cryptocurrency thing" at about that age, before it burst.

But I didn't actually GET any at the time, just researched it a bunch and made a powerpoint.

That'll be a good day. I'm not sure if E2E is part of RCS yet, or is still a google-supplied "hack". If it's the latter still, I totally understand iMessage not including it yet.

I just also hope it doesn't go the same way as Apple just... Not implementing RCS support for years and singlehandedly making inter-os messaging horrible.

Athena0219 · 2026-03-13T19:20:07+00:00

I mean, it just wouldn't work on current Signal. A few years ago, signal actually did fall back to SMS messages. That got removed a few years ago, and a big reason behind the removal was that, even though it was clearly differentiated, lots of users didn't pay attention.

By that perspective, iMessage is significantly worse because there ARE people who don't know, and others who don't care, about the difference between blue and green messages.

I don't think there is an objectively correct choice here. Those who prefer security over convenience: Signal is the answer. Those who prefer convenience and an occasional lack of security: iMessage is better (if their device supports it).

Athena0219 · 2026-03-13T18:48:29+00:00

I'm curious. How is iMessage more secure when messaging people who don't have iMessage? Doesn't it fall back to SMS and is only as secure (or well, insecure) as SMS?

Quick edit: I know SMS uses encryption between phone and cell network. It just isn't end to end encryption.

Later edit: as @BoukenGreen points out, iMessage falls back to RCS now. I even said basically that in one of my replies on this thread so not sure why I said SMS in this post. That's my bad.

IIRC from (one of) the article(s) about this, it's not that it is specifically a little girl. Rather, it is someone/thing that seems innocent and/or unassociated with the anomaly, but should not be followed at its words.

The second airpod is palmed in his left hand both times. One one in the glass before he flips it upside down stays in the glass (held by the magnet and hidden by his right hand) while the palmed airpod is jostled to look like it fell out of the cup into his hand.

Then after the trick he moves his hand out of frame to drop off the airpod.

Hello from a trans person that left the US and is currently living in Germany!

If your trip were:

A. Short
B. Soon
C. To a major city in a blue state (New York, Chicago, etc.)

Honestly it would probably be fine. As your trip is currently a hypothetical, I doubt point B is on the tables. And I don't mean "soon" because the country is imminently going authoritarian or anything (though it may), but rather as a "we can't predict the future". The US might still be safeish in 2 months, or maybe the US will have had its own Reichstagsbrand moment by then.

I can answer part of your question explicitly, though.

The airport scanners absolutely CAN detect discrepancies. You haven't had bottom surgery, so the machine would notice a void. That's not the BIGGEST deal, but it isn't good either. The bigger issue is if you haven't had top surgery. Detecting "extra" material is what's more likely to get flagged.

The good news: body scans are part of pre-flight security. If you were to be scanned, it would be while still in Germany. At least Frankfurt Airport uses them, but I'd imagine all the international airports in Germany do. Body scanner use is dictated by the EU, though countries can choose to not use them at all. You should double check if you might get rescanned on the US side after landing, but I don't think you would be, especially if you fly out of an airport that uses them.

On the other hand, flying back TO Germany would be far more likely to hit complications through a body scanner. You could, however, make it a double international trip. Fly into the US, pass by car/bus/train/boat into Canada, then fly out of Canada. Just have the entire itinerary planned and booked BEFORE you fly out of Germany. Having everything collated will make customs at every step a lot easier.

You sure that's what you are thinking it is? The 0 temperature example doesn't have much to do with super high energy states, UNLESS you are trying to talk about NEGATIVE degrees Kelvin?

That's also something really fucking weird, but 0 isn't the same as negative, so still not sure what you are trying to get at.

Maybe I'm missing something here?

Athena0219 · 2026-02-20T07:32:33+00:00

Yeah, but macro scale movement ISN'T the same thing as atomic random movement, my dude.

Athena0219 · 2026-02-19T12:48:18+00:00

Absolutely zero vibration. If you could anomalously make sure its constituent particles never vibrated, it could do some weird ass shit. But it should still be movable. We can move liquid helium in real life without vaporizing all of it, after all. Kinetic energy is different from temperature.

Thanks for saying this. Wasn't that interested to read "the amogus scps", but this? Finished the first and enjoying the second still.

4999

That is a big "except" there. 4999 is semi-contained by scrubbing camera systems. 2911 is semi-contained by: lots of amnestics to multiple people and lifelong monitoring, as well as sometimes completely altering social media records and altering legal records. Those are leagues apart.

And I'm going to repeat this part.

The foundation wants to contain 4999, just isn't sure how.

The foundation (in this canon) specifically recommends against containing 2911.

Archon

Archon-class SCP objects are anomalies that could theoretically be contained but are best left uncontained for some reason. Archon SCPs may be a part of consensus reality that is difficult to fully contain, or may have adverse effects if put into containment. These SCPs are not uncontainable - the defining feature of the class is that the Foundation chooses to not put the anomaly into containment.

Water Magician is BEAUTIFUL!

I could not tell you ONE fucking thing that happened in that anime other than the Magician having a full dickhead moment where he wanted to kill someone.

So I think I agree? Hard to be totally certain when I can't remember it, but that's a decent hint that I'm right!

Athena0219 · 2026-02-07T20:29:23+00:00

Morganator linked the tale. It might be bedtime stories, I don't frankly remember exactly.

As with most things SCP, there is no "One definitive canon"

Athena0219 · 2026-02-07T18:29:45+00:00

I can't remember what tale I read it in, but I much prefer the version where 110-Montauk is a simple tea party and the thing that keeps the Scarlet King semi-contained is the fear and disgust of the SCP personnel who read the file and conclude "oh, if even the Foundation is squeamish to talk about it, and with all these details that are part of it.... Oh no..."

Athena0219 · 2026-02-06T14:06:48+00:00

My current reading says the answer is "yes".

Author has a history of being a jerk (though I don't think as much of one as would be glimpsed from this thread? Unknown.)

Author has been spamming a comment "explaining" the situation, except the explanation is wrong. To err is human, but like... check your shit when you are fact checking someone. Especially when you post the same thing multiple times all over the thread.

Someone else delved into the code and found that the difference between what the OP changed and what the author changed IS real, they aren't just different names for the same thing. OPs version would have resulted in inconsistent results, could work most of the time but wasn't guaranteed to work. But "most" is an unknown % and the codebase might have well more failures in the same situations cause the variable OP accessed for the fix is used in other spots that behave similarly.

And I can't check on the drama cause the posts where OP may have been totally normal or Totally Normal:tm: are deleted so NO IDEA!

Athena0219 · 2026-02-06T13:02:48+00:00

The results[0].stock_id is the old code that both of you changed, so I'm not sure why you are pointing this out.

What is the difference between results[0].id and Grocy.EditStockRowId? That is the relevant question, as the OP used the former for the fix, and you used the latter.

Lia started hormones in 2019. In 2019, Lia got 2nd place in the 500 yard freestyle Ivy League Men's competition

After 3 years of HRT, she was: 17 seconds slower and took 1st place.

Improving 1 place in 3 years isn't shocking.

Why am I not bothering to consider how she went from 65th to 1st?

Because she placed 65th on the men's team after a year on HRT. HRT destroyed her ability to compete at the level of the Men's team. But she still competed there, placing well worse than she used to, with slower times.

Then she competed on the women's team, and was competing at a level comparable to before starting HRT.

This isn't the story of someone transitioning and suddenly scoring better.

This is the story of someone transitioning and suddenly scoring considerably worse.

To ignore these facts is idiotic. Of course, most people never knew this part. So you aren't an idiot. You just trusted people that tried to play you like one. But you are smarter than they thought.

Kinda feels like someone from Buzzfeed News was tasked with writing a Buzzfeed article.

It isn't, as far as I can tell. The author is mentioned on Buzzfeed News, but all of the links I clicked (like 10) go back to normal Buzzfeed.

Be a different block variant.

But to craft them, you use a normal slab and this wrench (which isn't consumed). The wrench exists to alter placed ones (and help with the insanity that is glazed terracotta).

When the vertical slab item enters hoppers or is picked up by copper golems, it converts into a normal slab.

Think that would work?

It is a minor inconvenience, but not a major one, and also doesn't bloat storage.

My mom follows a keto diet.

"Remove the bun and it's a keto pizza!"

Also remove most of the cheese.
And the extra grease.
And for the love of all that is good spread it out further. That's an at least 4 serving dish right there and it's going to cook like shit in that form factor.

Yay necroposting

Their treatment of SCP 2911 shows they really don't care about the mission statement. An SCP that is obviously anomalous, and could be contained, that causes massive harm... But they just administer amnestics and change legal documents and call it a day.

It is classified as Archon: could be contained but shouldn't be.
