That’s really impressive but has massive security implications.

the PDF file format supports Javascript with its own separate standard library. Modern browsers (Chromium, Firefox) implement this as part of their PDF engines.

This is something that really shouldn’t exist. I can’t imagine the legitimate uses for this outweigh the ways to abuse it.

Documents shouldn’t be allowed to run code. Ever.

Incidentally, anyone know which Firefox flag to set to disable running JS in PDFs entirely?

Why do that when you can just score a deal with the government to give them whatever information they want for sweet perks like foreign competitors getting banned?

Hopefully it also means animal testing isn’t actually that important and can be easily phased out for alternatives.

Would solve all of the operational problems inside the Inside Out brain-factory-thing.

Nothing’s stopping you. You won’t be missed.

If you’re only shoplifting small amounts I wouldn’t worry about cops either, for small amounts they’ll just ban you from the store, at least where I live idk about everywhere.

Beware. A lot of stores, namely large chain stores, are tracking people who shoplift with cameras and won’t press charges until you’ve cumulatively stolen enough for it to qualify as a serious offence with jail time and permanent criminal record.

It is how kids are

Hellll no. Have you seen how cruel kids are to each other in school? If you show any amount of weakness or insecurity or difference from the norm, everyone will gang up on you and make your life hell. There are literally cases of children being driven to suicide or developing mental illness due to bullying. Kids derive pleasure from making their peers feel inferior to them, much more so than adults. Kids are also some of the most intolerant, us-vs-them people, spread rumours because they think it’s fun to put down someone else, pretend to warm up to people they perceive as useful to themselves and throw them away as soon as their usefulness is depleated (copying homework is probably the most common example), threaten their friends with ostracism to make them fall in line, say horrible things to people they don’t know on the internet, exploit the ignorance of their peers to scam them (ever had someone try to convince you that a really rare trading card is actually a terrible one, and they’re being so kind to trade you for something better to take that bad card off your hands?), straight up steal stuff from their peers, etc etc. Nice kids are not a given, they are a small minority and their parents have to carefully mould those attributes into them. Kids left to their own devices with insufficient parental discipline are horrible, which implies that their default nature is one of selfishness and cruelty, not compassion.

That’s when they can’t think of any good arguments against you so they start gas lighting you and insinuating that you’re just cranky so your opinions aren’t valid

Testing medicines on humans is basically testing in production

God I’m sick of people using the “nature” argument against veganism/any other moral debate. Nature is not the source of morality people think it is.

Yes we are apart of nature, but in the same way that we’re apart of physics. Neither tells us what actions are ethical and fitting of an advanced civilisation. Nature is not some divine entity, it has no will or plan or any opinions on how its subjects should behave, it just is.

Also, nature is a shithole to actually live in. We literally spent our entire history trying to not be subjected to its wrath. You want to eat meat the way nature intended? You better not be buying a hamburger from McDonald’s. Sharpen a stick with your teeth and chase down that wild ox until it exhausts itself. Good luck, prehistoric humans were killed by their prey about as often as they killed their prey.

Oh the person who deliberately stored Facebook 1.0’s passwords in plaintext so he could use them to log into his users’ other accounts and stalk them now cares about privacy all of a sudden?

First they came for the immigrants

Then they came for the LGBTQ+

Then they came for the Palestine supporters

Then they’ll come for all of us.

“What is my purpose?”

“None. You don’t get executed ever because the very first thing I do upon getting a new computer is boot into UEFI and install Linux.”

My question is: why the hell was there a military training flight in the approach path of a major airport to begin with? Were the myriad of military airports and restricted military-only airspace all around DC not good enough for them?

Complaining about China or AI stealing jobs while under capitalism is like complaining about blood loss from stab wounds killing people while there’s a serial killer on the loose.

How traitorous and antisemitic of him to die when getting shot by Glorious Israel.

Zionist is a subset of Nazi

The alcohol will cancel it out.
