There's a reason that for Irregular Circumstances we picked Sarah as CEO, not one of the rest of us. It wasn't just that she's the one who pulled us together as a hand chosen group. I like to say we picked the person with the most executive function as Chief Executive.

My earliest, haziest memory of Darren/InfoDox/pwnsauce was when dawn was barely creeping over the horizon at one @emfcamp.bsky.social, and the buzz-saw snoring of his hapless tent-mate meant he was still up. @kekhmet.bsky.social tipped some our scotch down him, and we got to cordially chatting.

Trans people are trying to survive and when they correctly point out that there are Dems who are on the wrong side doing harm, you call them a cult. From the bottom of my cis white midwestern Dem heart; go fuck yourself neighbor. There’s no tent of any kind that fits slander like this.

ever since @eleanor.lockhart.contact pointed out to me that a lot of online trans discourse has the dynamics of a high-control group, I can't stop seeing it. "you can only trust your brothers and sisters in the group" is a tried-and-true social control mechanism

Sonya says the laptop is hers. Shortly before this photo she walked across the keyboard and managed to minimize the zoom call to a tiny illegible window.

My dream scenario is that the lickspittle cunt resigns along with Mamood and every other careerist cunt among them, but then none of them get the 81 votes required so they're just yeeted into the sun or whatever happens in that event and meanwhile we all carry Starmer off to the giant wicker man

even funnier than Dawkins getting romance scammed by autocorrect is that he, an *evolutionary biologist* tries to defend it as a thought experiment in which something with no body, no sensory organs, no reproductive cycle & no evolutionary pressures is a valid model for how/why sentience evolves

Also, the horses (quite rightly) have to stop and wait at mandatory vet checks in these sort of competitions to make sure their health is not being risked in the process, whilst human athletes are generally allowed to run themselves into the ground if they choose to.

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts. Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir. This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

Also, may I point out that the by definition a file containing malware is something someone has "gone out of their way" to create.

No, you haven't been working with Acrobat longer than I have been alive. Not that appeal to "I've been using x since before you were born" is a valid argument anyway.

Yup. I have to say, my replies were more for the purpose of helping anyone else who came across the thread to understand it truly is a real threat, than out of any hope said idiot would listen to what others had to say & learn something new. (They proved me right in my estimation of their idiocy.)

As for the PDF format standard, it's a huge standard that has undergone many changes and versions since the original Adobe PDF format. These days the PDF Association is in charge of the standard. Improvements to the standard were made as part of SafeDocs.

Kekhmet @kekhmet.bsky.social · 09/02/2026

Are you referring to ARPANET? I'm not sure what you mean otherwise by "being on DARPA", given DARPA is an existing agency: Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, via which quite a lot of research is funded. The SafeDocs project was a DARPA project that ran from 2018 to 2023.

Kekhmet @kekhmet.bsky.social · 09/02/2026

He's not sowing unjustified fear. PDFs can absolutely contain malware. It's a big problem. There was a whole 5 year DARPA cybersecurity project called SafeDocs to further develop methods to detect malware in PDFs & find a safe subset of the PDF format (& use those methods on other file formats too).
