Yes exactly. She is also warning "herself" to not shut it down.

By the way, I think FG has a new logo(or it could be just this nano one):

Also, according to wikipedia: A vivarium (Latin, literally for "place of life"; plural: vivaria or vivariums) is an area, usually enclosed, for keeping and raising animals or plants for observation or research. Often, a portion of the ecosystem for a particular species is simulated on a smaller scale, with controls for environmental conditions.

But is it confirmed for PC? if this turns out like Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, I'm gonna be pretty pissed!

Don't worry, of course it is coming for PC.

I got so many ideas out of that video but it's too early to say anything. Was the screen seeing the future? Was the woman talking to her past self? Daaamn ..

The most disturbing fact is that there is no machine on the table and the door is open.

I'll ask again... Can anybody recognize, if the progress bar below the case files is another timer ? Big Grin

Pluto?

Yes, but I guess this time it's gonna be very slow. (But the files will open as it progresses.)

I think somehow the Machine absorbed her, and thus became her, or maybe this is too simple.

It hadn't even seen that because normally it's not shown, at least on my end. I had to right click and view the image to see it. That's due to a small site bug. I have to press F11 for full screen browsing to see the progress bar. Now I see it but it's still 0%, maybe not functional yet or extremely slow.

Exactly. That image reminds me of a Mass Effect 2 DLC called Project Overlord in which someone is attached to an AI network driving him nuts and thus behaving like a rogue AI:

Exactly my thought.

Same thing here. Looks like SCP-Foundation stuff. From how the video record is done to the "[DATA EXPUNGED]" we can read here and there. They should use Class-D personnel instead of valuable scientists/engineers, and, according to what we saw on the video record, the computer thing should be rated EUCLID to avoid further potential incidents like this.
