I don't think you've thought through your question. The machine was open in both time periods. The machine was turned off after the information was given. There's nothing more to happen.
I get what you're trying to say, but it doesn't really apply to the scenario you are describing.
I saw a better version of what you are attempting to present: a scientist has a button that transports an object back in time by 5 seconds. An apple is tested successfully, it appears 5 seconds before he pushes the button and when he pushes the button the original disappears. They try it with a live mouse but something goes wrong; when it appears it's horribly disfigured and this scares the scientist who pulls away from pushing the button. The mouse has already appeared but he will not press the button. Now what happens?
This is the most level headed approach to IP I've seen. If you're not willing to use the property you forfeit it. It's a common contact for licensing rights for movies that forces a studio to make a movie or lose rights. That way people can't squat on a licence to prevent others using it.
Because it's a stepping stone in the learning. Using something like tailscale that just works allows you to develop skills with other software and workflows. Eventually you progress to harder things like hosting your own private VPN.
To be fair, I totally understand why people think it's AI. Between the phone camera processes and the extreme postprocessing, this looks more deep fried than some memes I've seen. It almost looks like it's got a cartoon filter applied.
Add on the fact that OP is trying hard to down play how much editing has been done, it starts to feel like it doesn't add up. If OP posted the unedited photo to show the bad phone sharpening and admitted how much editing was done on top of that, people would understand what they are looking at.
Don't get me wrong, it looks cool, but when someone says "oh, no I just took this with my phone", I look at that and think that's not the whole truth.
Here's just one breakdown I've found by googling. Some of these can be justified by making up theories of characters lying or making mistakes, others are clearly for the fact that they forgot details from the OT while they were writing the PT and contradicted themselves.
Potholes aside, my favourite dumb thing is that in the OT Obi-Wan was wearing farmers clothes to blend in, you can see uncle Owen wearing matching clothes. But the in PT that's apparently the Jedi uniform. Not very smart to hide out in Tatooine wearing Jedi uniform, going by the name Kenobi, and looking after a kid called Skywalker. R2D2 didn't think to mention Anakin to Luke? Or is Skywalker the "Smith" of that galaxy's surnames?
Tactics is getting more of a remaster than a remake. It's also missing a bunch of content that was added in the PSP version. Honestly I don't think it will sell terribly well.
Flashback.
I played it on SNES, but it was on a few consoles. I heard they are making a sequel so that's cool. It's science fiction with flavours of total recall, they live, and running man. I just really enjoyed the prince of Persia style gameplay but cyberpunk.
Parasite Eve
More specifically number 2, because the first one never officially came to pal regions. It's like resident evil but SciFi/body horror. The third game was shit because they lost the rights to the novel it was originally based on. If there's any game sequel that I wish for it would be a proper PE3.
I think I heard a shot...
