positives:
1.fantastic idea
2. simple execution
negatives:
1. This is too short in my opinion and needs to be fleshed out more
2.some sentence structure errors
SCP-1584's domain is to be blocked from all major internet service providers, through Foundation agents in various world governments. Access to the website is to be granted to Level 3 personnel.
unnecessary comma
SCP-1584 not waterproof the objects it is loaded onto
is there supposed to be a "does" somewhere?
neutral vote for now
Thanks. I actually decided against fleshing it out more; I thought of a couple ways to expand it, but they all seemed to drag out the novelty. I'll take care of that comma.
you know, after rereading it, I just changed my mind,
have an upvote, but just one more thing
the device will lose a varying amount of mass so as to provide approximately 7.5 kg of buoyant force in fresh water.
the so is unnecessary
+1
From my googling, it looks like "so as to" means "in order to" which is correct, and "as to" means "with regard to" which is not.
or you could remove "so as" and be 100% accurate, as well.
"so as to" is fine, unless I'm missing something due to being tired
(and yet I post)
+1, but am I meant to assume that the photo in the article is the anomalous image itself? Because in the absence of a statement that the image has been scrubbed of those properties, that's what captioning it just as "safety.jpg" implies.
Seconding Smapti here… I really like this for its originality, but you need to make a note about how that photo has been changed enough so that it does not propagate the effect.
Also, the addendum seems pointless.
I did not mean to imply that. It is the webpage itself that is anomalous. The image is nothing special.
As long as SCP-1584 is loaded on a device's browser, the device will lose a varying amount of mass so as to provide approximately 7.5 kg of buoyant force in fresh water.
You should probably clarify here then…
I'm not sure exactly what to clarify. SCP-1584 is the website, not the image.
It was perfectly clear to me.
That being said, buoyant force is measured in newtons, not kg. Unless I'm mistaken somehow.
if your reading this your gay
It is. However, I think kg is also valid for forces directly linked to gravity. I might edit it.
If it were me, I'd just append "Image confirmed to display no anomalous properties" to the caption.
I like the idea of it confusing the reader. Perhaps you should drop your computer in a lake to test the image?
It'd make far more sense to simply weigh the device, since the report states that the skip causes things to lose mass but that they don't become waterproof.
+1, btw. Great idea, well executed plus you got grammar people debating correct terms.
Complementary Wifi will be provided momentarily. In the event of an emergency water landing, please remove the processor located beneath your seat.
Cross test, anyone? *demoted*
That last note certainly says something about how people think.
This feels almost like it could be an anomalous object. Subtract the stuff about bouyancy and the containment procedures, it could easy fit, length-wise. However, it's clever and the thing about calling emergency services was pretty good. +1
Short, sweet, and simple. I was gonna harp on how this was a bit too short for my tastes, but I agree that this idea doesn't really need padding to work.
What.
What do you mean what?
In all earnestness, this is my favorite kind of SCP: An interesting idea simply executed.
