So in a random event of inspiration via word association I've come up with a few fictional products that stretch and/or break the laws of physics. I've decided to use as a tag for these and related posts.

Please note that any differences in laws/practices/etc between the companies that make these products and real companies is purely due to them existing in a fictional universe where things just work that way and not due to my limited knowledge of the industrial world.

Today I found out Mastodon has 5+ mobile clients. Hooray for open source software!

As I slowly make my way through chains of conversations and followers on here, trying to figure out whom I find interesting enough to follow, I am amazed at how welcoming and understanding everyone is here.

I know this has been said before by many others, but I felt like reiterating it in hopes of being able to look back and say it still holds true some time in the future.


Some games this time:

'FTL: Faster Than Light': A spaceship equipped for scouting is expected to upgrade itself to take on a full battleship within a few hours.

SUPERHOT: For some reason, using a VR headset lets you slow down time in real life.

Please Don't Touch Anything: Touch anything and everything.

Civilization: Don't be too nice to Ghandi, or he'll launch his nukes at you.

Surgeon Simulator: The guy from QWOP gets a medical degree.


Figured I'd toss in some anime in, more just for the fun of coming up with it than anyone else getting the jokes.

Assassination classroom: An octopus blows up half the moon, then decides to teach a class of middle schoolers

Mob Psycho 100: A boy with actual psychic powers believes a con-man has more powerful psychic powers, and attempts to learn from him.

Steins;Gate: Using a microwave to turn a banana into gelatin, text messages can be sent back in time.

@Felthry I've used it, but only for following some content creators and for one online contest/game show; so I can't say I've seen much of it.
