You can get a pretty good idea of someone’s size by their head and neck. Larger and taller people have bigger necks, and fatter people have… Well, more fat.

Is it bad that the only reason I thought the story was fake was “there’s no way that sized person cut off someone’s head completely, maybe after a dozen chops and some pulling but that article is definitely exaggerating”
You know, rather than “Holy shit that’s insane nobody would do that”
Every argument I have ever heard boils down to “in my specific use-case because of X Y Z and Purple, all the benefits of wired are irrelevant” and the people espousing such opinions don’t at all take into consideration that other people exists and their specific use-case is not at all widely experienced.
“My tinnitus means I can’t distinguish high tones well” okay buddy, but how many other people enjoy distinct highs?
“I move around too much so Bluetooth is the only practical solution” okay my friend, but many people either don’t have that problem, or they’ve found a solution.

I open the pdfs in inkscape to pull the vector files and save them as an svg. There’s probably a simpler way, but this allows me to open the vector in a lot more programs like my laser software and my CAD programs.
The only pdfs that get printed like a normal person are small rc planes and the files are from trusted sources.
It’s nice to know I can do a little extra to protect myself from pdf based attacks though, thanks for the info!
Boolean operators are meaningless these days.
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•*Permanently Deleted*English4·23 days agoAny questionable software I have is coming up on 4 years old now, most of it is older than that. I move them to a new machine every time I upgrade, simply because I don’t trust torrents anymore.
Honestly, I don’t trust PDFs anymore unless they’re from places I know are “safe” which kind of sucks because I’ve been getting back into RC as a hobby and it’s hard to find non-pdf plans. I prefer vector files, but I’m having to try my luck with jpg and png files.
A lot of the programs I used to use have been surpassed by current FOSS projects, and I’ve been replacing them as I can. Finding an open source laser engraver program that isn’t shit is proving difficult.

Ugh. They always try to get you with the shipping… Pass.
Miles O'Brien@startrek.websiteto 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•the timeline is fucked ruleEnglish30·1 month agoI have been filling out applications recently and one place wanted me to download a mobile app that would record camera and microphone stuff while I filled out the application
Another company wanted me to record responses on a Webcam.
Whatever the fuck I feel like, damn.
Nosey ass search engine…
Hey, you.
YEAH YOU! WITH THE FACE ON YOUR HEAD!
YOU are a FULLY FLEDGED HUMAN BEING with VALID FEELINGS and DIFFICULTIES!
YOU are BEAUTIFUL and HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF GREAT STRENGTH whether you REALIZE IT OR NOT
YOU can FACE THE DAY ahead and NOBODY CAN STOP YOU unless you LET THEM
If someone wants to HATE YOU FOR EXISTING, then you have to EXIST AS HARD AS POSSIBLE because they aren’t going to change, but YOU DON’T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT PETTY SHITHEADS
GO GET EM, TIGER
That place is a monument to mankind’s arrogance.
The taxes from it go to schools.
Dozens of people have gotten a chuckle out of this over the years. dozens!
“I’m gonna make a sunny-side-up egg for my toast today”
cracks egg, yolk shatters into 10,000 pieces when it hits the pan
“I’m making scrambled eggs today.”
Skill issue, tbh
The worst fucking game I’ve ever played.
30-something years invested and I have fuckall to show for it.
Damn, the only people I want to share this with who would understand it, would be offended.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know your trigger was s*y milk, do you need a safe space to calm down before facing the big scary coffee shop again?”
A proper response to someone giving you shit about soy milk or almond milk or any other type.
Or anyone who parrots Republicans and their AnTi-wOkEnEsS lines.
But that isn’t the criteria they’re working with in any news report or court case, is it?
If I draw up some plans on a napkin with crayon, make my thing based on that, and “QC” says all the parts are to spec, and it fails and looks like shit in the process… I would say that is FAR more improvised than the guy making a pipe bomb out of hardware store supplies that’s set off by a complex electronic custom timer/signal receiver.
I do get your point, I’m just being slightly ridiculous for humor’s sake.
It’s all entirely “did someone make this in a factory with government approval or not”
Y’know… In this hypothetical news story/court case…

Even without all the extra bullshit surrounding the case, and even back when I was a high school republican douchebag who hadn’t even voluntarily stayed home from church yet and still believed cops have our best interests in mind, I STILL would have said this sounds like complete bullshit and they planted evidence.
